Chapter 656 (2/2)

“My boss taught me, empress dowager!” answered the girl.

“Your boss? Who’s your boss?” she asked. She was the only one who didn’t know who, though she had her guesses.

“The boss is Master Ye Lang, he’s our boss,” said the girl.

Everyone from Romantic Floor seemed to call him boss, they agreed that it was the best name for him!

“So it’s the kid!” the empress dowager smiled. “What performances will there be? I can watch them if you want.”

“About that… You can’t…” said the girl awkwardly.

“Mother, you’re the only one who can’t watch…” said Long Anqi with an odd expression. The girl was begging with her eyes.

“?? Why?”

“Because the performance was prepared for you! They’re here to perform for your birthday,” said Long Anqi.

She finally understood. It was for her, so there must be an element of surprise.

“I see, then I am not a suitable candidate indeed! Hehe…” The empress dowager smiled. “Girl, what is your name?”

“Liu Feiyan!” said the girl. Yep, it was an important occasion so Liu Feiyan, their main card, had to be present.

“Liu Feiyan? I’ve heard of this name, you’re the most famous girl at the teahouse.” The empress dowager remembered someone mentioning this name at Ye City, she had a close relationship with Ye Lang.

Of course, the ‘closeness’ she heard about in rumours were false, she later found out that they were just employer and employee. There was nothing odd about it.

The only thing odd was that they were very close!

“I’m not sure about that, empress dowager!”

“You’re beautiful, the kid has good taste,” said the empress dowager with a smile. Although she had been very mild with Liu Feiyan, she was still honest despite her title.

Liu Feiyan had a talent in making other people at ease.

“Yeah, my boss has good taste but he’s a liar! We all came, yet he’s off galavanting somewhere! Hmmph!” huffed Liu Feiyan. Her adorable outburst showed that she had already forgotten where she was and who these people were. She was just complaining about Ye Lang.

“Hehe, it’s good to be young. All these young ones don’t play by any rules,” said Long Anqi smilingly, as if to remind Liu Feiyan that these people were different, also to remind the empress dowager not to dwell on small things with the young ones.

“Hehe, Madam, I shall excuse myself first! And I have to reflect on my mistakes.” Liu Feiyan stuck out her tongue and ran off.

Although she was just a commoner, she treated everyone the same.

Perhaps also because of Ye Lang’s influence…

“This Liu Feiyan isn’t bad at all… It’s a pity her background is lacking or I would consider her for the prince,” said the empress dowager, as if it was a pity.

Although she considered herself open-minded, she still hesitated with such a large gap in background. She might like the girl but some things were just impossible.

“As long as they are happy, I wouldn’t mind what background they were from. Ye Lang wouldn’t care either, he never did,” said Long Anqi flatly, though she sighed in her heart. The empress dowager was THE empress dowager after all, she was different from anyone else.
