Marry the NPC with Money, Wife Comes Knocking - Chapter 129

Chapter 129

Hua Suihe led Ye Susheng back to the room. Ye Susheng refreshed her heavy outfit away, replacing it with a set of grey-blue loungewear as she followed behind Hua Suihe.

Hua Suihe pulled out a black Chanel-style skirt suit. It consisted of a black base layer and a French-style tweed jacket with a white fur collar, paired with a long midi skirt. It had the distinct air of a fashionable socialite.

Hua Suihe held the clothes up against her, measuring them. “Even a Fake Young Miss is still a young miss, so of course you have to dress the part and look stylish.”

Ye Susheng took the clothes from Hua Hua, her heart full of joy as she ran into the bathroom to change.

Ye Susheng moved quickly and emerged within minutes. The black outfit gave her a more demure appearance. Wanting Hua Hua to admire her, she stood in a very well-behaved posture.

Her white hair was smooth and lustrous, cascading down almost to her ankles. Whenever Ye Susheng reverted to her default appearance without specific styling requirements, her hair was always this long.

Hua Suihe stared at her hair, wondering if it would look shorter if she styled it into curls.

Noticing her gaze, Ye Susheng proactively brushed her hair over one shoulder. When she didn’t receive immediate praise, she felt a slight pang of disappointment and asked, “Hua Hua, do you think the white hair doesn’t match?”

“Of course not!” Hua Suihe immediately countered. Taking her hand, she led her to the chair in front of the vanity. “It’s beautiful. I have great taste, you know, and this outfit suits you perfectly.”

“I was just thinking that Ye Zi’s hair is a bit long, so I’m wondering what hairstyle would be best.”

Hearing Hua Hua’s praise, Ye Susheng was satisfied. She grabbed her own hair and lifted it up. “If Hua Hua thinks it’s too long, I can just cut it off~”

“Hmm?”

“It’s fine. It’ll grow back this long by tomorrow anyway. If I don’t want long hair every day, I’ll just cut it once a day.” On normal workdays, Ye Susheng’s hairstyles were refreshed automatically, and her hair length changed accordingly, so she didn’t think cutting it was a big deal.

Seeing her say this, Hua Suihe picked up the scissors from the vanity, looking eager to try. “Then we won’t keep it long today.”

“Will Hua Hua cut it for me?” Ye Susheng had actually intended to just slice it off in one go; her blade was fast.

But Hua Suihe was very interested in her hair. She gestured for her to stand up and, after careful comparison, cut off the hair below her waist.

Hua Suihe had been holding the hair in her hand, but as soon as it was cut, the strands simply vanished. “Eh? That’s so magical?”

It was just as magical as her own hair, which hadn’t grown an inch in six months.

After shortening the hair, she pressed Ye Susheng back into the chair. “Sit still, I’m going to curl your hair.”

Styling was the most time-consuming part. She spent an hour fussing with an automatic curling iron before she managed a decent-looking Roman curl. As soon as it took shape, she immediately set it with hairspray, worried it would unravel.

Ye Susheng sat obediently throughout the entire process, but seeing Hua Suihe standing the whole time to work on her hair strand by strand, she felt bad for her. “Hua Hua, this is too much trouble. Let’s not do this hairstyle next time.”

Hua Suihe turned off the curling iron, unplugged it, and coiled the cord before setting it on the table.

Standing behind Ye Susheng, she gently arranged the curls into place, staring into the mirror to admire her masterpiece.

“I haven’t really styled your hair before. Well? Isn’t it beautiful?”
Ye Susheng cupped her face, admiring herself. “So pretty! Thank you, Hua Hua~”

Hua Suihe hadn’t missed the chance to do her makeup either, spending fifteen minutes to give her a full face.

This was exactly the aura of a true heiress.

During the makeup process, the Life Assistant Kitty had already reminded them it was lunchtime, so it was the perfect time to head out.

Hua Suihe took her hand. “Alright, it’s lunchtime. Let’s go eat.”

Ye Susheng toyed with the end of her hair; a curl of hair bounced like a spring, full of elasticity.

“Thanks for the hard work, Hua Hua. I’ll help you style your hair in the future too.”

Hua Suihe nodded in agreement. “Sure, I have full confidence in your aesthetic sense.”

The two walked side by side to the elevator and arrived at the dining floor below.

Lano, dressed in a vintage European-style gown, stood around the corner. She stared at their retreating figures as they entered the public restaurant together, subconsciously taking two steps forward. “Hua Hua, Hua Hua…”

They were inseparable. That woman was monopolizing Hua Hua; she had no chance to see Hua Hua at all.

“I want to be with Hua Hua. I want Hua Hua.”

“Damned impostor, give Hua Hua back to me…” (All the ‘Ye Sushengs’ believed that the others who looked exactly like them were impostors.)

Hua Suihe and Ye Susheng found an empty seat in the restaurant and sat down. After finishing their meal and resting for a while, Ye Susheng said she needed to spend some time dealing with the players who were doing tasks, so she would drop Hua Suihe back at her room before getting to work.

“Hua Hua, I’ll be back in a bit. Don’t open the door for strangers.”

Hua Suihe nodded. “Mhm, I know. Go ahead and get to work.”

Ye Susheng left her in the room, closing the door behind her.

Hua Suihe sat alone on the sofa and called out to the robot to open the curtains for her. “Kitty Kitty.”

*Click.*

Hearing the sound of the door opening, Hua Suihe looked toward the source. It was Ye Susheng, wearing the work uniform from this morning.

Hua Suihe looked puzzled. Hadn’t she just left wearing the outfit Hua Suihe had styled for her?

When Lano saw Hua Suihe on the sofa, she hurried toward her, her eyes brimming with joy. “Hua Hua!”

“Hua Hua, Hua Hua, I finally found you!” She lunged forward, trying to hug Hua Suihe, but Hua Suihe nimbly dodged to the side. Lano fell onto the sofa, looking up at Hua Suihe with a face full of confusion.

Hua Suihe observed her calmly, then smiled. “Why are you back? Aren’t you supposed to be busy?”

“I don’t want to work, I just want to be with Hua Hua.” As she spoke, she tried to squeeze closer to Hua Suihe again.

Hua Suihe stood up immediately. “Oh, your clothes are so bulky, it’s too cramped.”

“I’m sorry, Hua Hua…” Lano clutched her skirt, looking a bit lost. Her first instinct was to apologize, but she couldn’t change out of these clothes; this was her identity for the day. She explained cautiously, “Hua Hua, it’ll be fine after today. This is just today’s work uniform.”

“Is that so?”

Hua Suihe didn’t show any sign that anything was wrong. “Then make some room for me, and stop crowding me with your skirt.”

Hearing Hua Suihe’s words, Lano could only retreat to the corner of the sofa, hugging her large dress piteously. She didn’t dare ask for a hug anymore, but her gaze remained glued to Hua Suihe, replacing the physical embrace.

She murmured infatuatedly, “Hua Hua, I missed you so much~”
