CHAPTER 686: CHAPTER 553: COUPLE OUTFITS

Thinking of the "relationship" between Wu Zhong and Feng Xun, Yan Jiu’s eyes deepened slightly.

Both Feng Xun and Wu Zhong are clever people, some things are better said by themselves.

Yan Jiu then gave a look to Lan Cai’er, lured her away, and also took Long Baobao out, leaving a world for two... a world for two people and one beast for Ye Lingyue and Feng Xun.

"Sister Lan, was that big brother just now Sister Yue’s sweetheart? Is he Feng Xun?" Although Long Baobao was young, he deeply cared about Ye Lingyue’s affairs.

Feng Xun was different from Bo Qing. Although Bo Qing was also handsome, Long Baobao could tell that Sister Yue did not like Bo Qing.

But Feng Xun was different. Long Baobao felt that Feng Xun was handsome and it was easy to feel good about him, and he even thought that Feng Xun and Sister Yue were a good match.

Earlier in the presence of the Heavenly Venerate, upon hearing the name Feng Xun, he had already guessed that this person must be very important to Ye Lingyue.

Such a precious opportunity to ask questions, Ye Lingyue didn’t ask herself, nor did she ask others, she only asked Feng Xun.

"Indeed, he is your Sister Yue’s sweetheart. They are going to get married soon and then have a bunch of little steamed buns."

Yan Jiu said with a mischievous intention.

Hearing this, Long Baobao’s mouth puckered, his little head drooped, and he walked away dejectedly.

How could this little guy call Lan Cai’er sister and him Uncle Yan, making Yan Jiu, when idle or busy, always look at himself in the mirror, wondering if he had aged a lot recently from overexertion.

"Yan Jiu, what are you talking about? Ling Yue hasn’t agreed to Feng Xun yet. Besides, why are you telling these things to Little Steamed Bun?" Lan Cai’er wondered.

Yan Jiu curled his lip, thinking inwardly about how slow Lan Cai’er was.

Unexpected to find Ye Lingyue was such a tough nut, meeting the stubborn Wu Zhong head-on, stiff-necked against stiff-necked.

When facing Feng Xun, she turned soft, yarn-like around a finger. He was certain that sooner or later, Ye Lingyue would be completely eaten by Feng Xun, down to the last bone.

"Not so young anymore, I remember at that age, I already knew how to peep..."

Yan Jiu dismissively spoke, deliberately telling Long Baobao, looking at his expression, it seemed he had experienced heartbreak.

Before Yan Jiu could finish, Lan Cai’er glared, grabbed Yan Jiu by the ear with one hand.

"What were you peeping at? Say it!"

Yan Jiu cringed, pleading from his mouth, and the two, making noise and fussing, left.

Inside the room, Ye Lingyue and Feng Xun briefly remained silent.

Little Zhiyo lay on Feng Xun’s lap, Feng Xun casually petting its fur, paused when his hand reached the little vest on Little Zhiyo.

"Oh, I remembered, I made an armor for you." Ye Lingyue recalled, bending over to fetch the newly refined Qiankun Purple Gold Vest from the room.

After receiving guidance from Long Baobao, Ye Lingyue had consulted Lady Lan last time and refined a vest for Feng Xun.

Recalling the last time, at Xingxiu Cave, when Feng Xun blocked an arrow for her, each time Ye Lingyue remembered, her heart would quaver with fear.

With this vest, at least Feng Xun could withstand the defense of any Heavenly-grade Spiritual Artifact or below.

Feng Xun caught a glimpse of the Purple Gold Vest in Ye Lingyue’s hands, his eyes shimmered, and his lips curled unwittingly.

He removed his coat, still wearing a moon-white vest underneath.

Ye Lingyue was taken aback—the vest was clearly no ordinary item.

The last time Feng Xun was injured in Xingxiu Cave, Emperor Beiqing gifted him a vest that was a Lower Grade Heavenly garment, slightly superior to the one Ye Lingyue had crafted, complete with beautifully embroidered golden threads that matched Feng Xun’s elegant demeanor.

"You should keep wearing that one," Ye Lingyue said, a hint of jealousy apparent as she nervously clung to her own "simpler" Purple Gold Vest.

Before she could snatch back the vest, Feng Xun grabbed it from her hands.

"I want to wear the one you’re holding. I’ll give this one to Little Zhiyo," Feng Xun said, casually throwing the Lower Grade Heavenly vest onto Little Zhiyo.

Little Zhiyo was momentarily blinded, unable to see anything, and struggled frantically with his short legs to pull off the Heavenly-grade Spiritual Artifact that had landed on his head.

Ye Lingyue’s face flushed, her hand still held by Feng Xun’s.

Feng Xun’s palm was chillingly cold, and Ye Lingyue suddenly remembered he’d taken off his coat; Mercenary City was located in the mountains where the weather was quite chilly.

"Let me help you put it on, it’s a bit inconvenient wearing this vest for the first time," Ye Lingyue knew Feng Xun would keep standing like this if she didn’t offer him the Purple Gold Vest.

Finally, Feng Xun let go, allowing Ye Lingyue to take the vest and hold it up in front of him.

In reality, the Purple Gold Vest was quite easy to wear. After mastering its creation, Ye Lingyue added a small piece of Sky Bright Crystal to the Qiankun Purple Gold Bamboo. The vest could now freely change size.

After Feng Xun put it on, it fit perfectly, even more closely than the one bestowed by Emperor Beiqing.

"It’s no surprise, Feng Xun, everything looks good on you. If I let you wear this Purple Gold Vest and walk around the street, it would definitely attract lots of customers," the Purple Gold Bamboo in Hong Meng Heaven where Ye Lingyue resided was growing vigorously.

Ever since Ye Lingyue last crafted a small vest for Little Zhiyo, the little guy had been very proud.

Whenever possible, he would parade around Mercenary City.

Many female mercenaries who adored cute pets saw it and approached with hearts in their eyes, curious where Little Zhiyo got his Purple Gold Vest from.

She was planning, in a short while, to open a Spiritual Clothes Workshop together with Long Baobao.

Little Zhiyo would be her first signature model, and Feng Xun would be the second, with Uncle Yan barely making up the third golden sign.

Today, after listening to Heavenly Venerate’s words, Feng Xun had felt a bit irritable.

But seeing Ye Lingyue looking at him with glowing eyes, his expression softened, and he spoke softly.

"Actually, in Beiqing, some young noble lovers custom-make matching clothes, called ’couple’s clothing.’ This clothing made from Purple Gold Bamboo complements your skin tone well. If you wore this and walked with me on the street, it would look even better."

As Ye Lingyue was helping Feng Xun change, they stood very close. Feng Xun spoke with his head lowered, his voice reaching Ye Lingyue’s ears.

At first, Ye Lingyue didn’t understand, but upon reflection, she realized what Feng Xun meant.

"Who wants to wear couple’s clothing with you? You can match with Little Zhiyo, let the two of you be a couple," Ye Lingyue blushed, grabbed Little Zhiyo and threw him into Feng Xun’s arms.

Watching the similarly dressed pair, one large and one small, Ye Lingyue couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
