Chapter 148.1 – Extra Chapter 7

Lu Qipei had not worn women’s clothing for a long time. When she walked behind the screen, she neatly took off the men’s clothing she was wearing one by one, then put on the women’s clothing in front of her piece by piece… There was no unfamiliarity in her movements, but her expression was a bit dazed.

Soon, Lu Qipei had put on the inner robes, middle garments, outer clothes, and the long skirt one by one.

Smoothing out the last wrinkles on the hem of her skirt, Lu Qipei lowered her head and looked at the dress she was wearing. Suddenly, she felt a bit nervous – she had known Qi Yang for many years, and they had seen each other sincerely many times, but this was the first time she wore women’s clothing for Qi Yang to see. Plus, Qi Yang had been thinking about this for many years and clearly had high expectations, so Lu Qipei was somewhat worried that her appearance would disappoint her.

“Ah Pei, are you done changing yet?” Qi Yang was indeed filled with expectations. After waiting outside for a while and hearing that the rustling sounds of changing clothes had stopped, she couldn’t wait and asked in the screen’s direction.

Lu Qipei was brought back to her senses this question, and she then lowered her head to examine herself. She pursed his lips and replied, “Yeah.”

After saying that, Lu Qipei also threw away the messy thoughts in her mind and walked towards the front of the screen.

Maybe it was due to the change of clothes, Lu Qipei’s long buried memories and habits resurfaced, and her movements and gestured changed. She was no longer as cool and calm as when she wore men’s clothing, but had an additional layer of gentleness and softness. It was as if her whole temperament had instantly changed quite a bit.

After only taking two steps, and before she could get out from behind the screen, Lu Qipei suddenly stopped. She quickly lifted her hand and touched the well-combed male-style hair bun and crown on her head. The gentleness and softness on her face disappeared, and she laughed a little at herself.

Yes, she was wearing a dress now, but she was also wearing a man’s crown. If she walked out right now, it would be hard to say what she was supposed to be!

About to show her beloved her other side, she still ended up losing her composure after all.

Thinking this way, she raised her hand and pulled out her jade hairpin, then took off the crown from her head. Her black, silky hair instantly scattered down, and when she shook her head lightly, they fell softly on her cheeks and shoulders, making her look softer and more unrestrained.

Qi Yang couldn’t wait any longer and walked behind the screen, and the first thing she saw was this scene…

Her Royal Highness The Princess was stunned. The beauty in moon-white dress stood tall and graceful in front of her – she still had those familiar, heroic brows, but when she lowered her eyebrows, her eyes looked somewhat more charming, making Qi Yang’s heart beat loudly. She pursed her lips then opened her mouth to say something, but the thousand words seemed to be stuck in her throat. All the descriptions she had in her mind turned into nothingness, and she suddenly didn’t know what to say.

Lu Qipei raised her eyes, and Qi Yang was startled. They looked at each other for what seemed like an eternity.

Seeing the astonishment in Qi Yang’s eyes, the small weight on Lu Qipei’s heart was instantly gone. She lifted the hem of her skirt and took two steps forward, looking at Qi Yang with a smile: “Your Highness, has my current appearance managed to live up to your expectations?”

Qi Yang was in a daze again, mesmerized by Lu Qipei’s smile, and completely unable to process what the latter was saying. All she registered was that Lu Qipei’s pale red lips were slightly parted, opening and closing as if she was saying something, but unfortunately her familiar voice did not reach her ears. It wasn’t until those lips stopped moving and she blinked her eyes that Qi Yang realized that Lu Qipei seemed to have finished saying something, but all she could do was respond in a puzzle tone. “Ah?”

After being married for so many years, how could Lu Qipei not notice that Qi Yang was losing her composure? A smile appeared on her clear eyes, and the sense of restraint that she had after changing her clothes completely disappeared. Right now, she slowly took two steps forward and directly hooked Qi Yang’s shoulders, saying, “I mean, is Your Highness satisfied?”

The familiar plum blossom fragrance invaded her nose – together with those stirring words, it was as if a pool of spring water had been disrupted.

Qi Yang’s heart beat even faster. She tried to maintain a composed look, but a blush was spreading uncontrollably from her cheeks to her ears.

Of course Lu Qipei saw it, and there was a hint of surprise in her eyes. They had known each other for a long time, and they were pure and innocent in the previous life, with nothing much to talk about. But in this life, it was Qi Yang who approached her from the start and kept teasing her. Every time, Qi Yang provoked her and caused her to blush – the experience of making Qi Yang blush with just a few words like today was something rare.

Looking at Qi Yang’s blushing face right now, Lu Qipei suddenly thought about teasing her again. Just like what Qi Yang did to her back then, the teasing part was just secondary, the main purpose was to see her blush.

Unfortunately, before Lu Qipei could move the hand on her shoulder to touch Qi Yang’s cheek, the latter suddenly answered her earlier question. “I’m not satisfied.”

“Ah?” This time, it was Lu Qipei’s turn to be dumbfounded.

However, Qi Yang had already regained her composure, and dragged Lu Qipei away without any explanation. They passed the screen and head straight to the dressing table, saying, “Your current makeup is unsuitable, you look like a man dressing up as a woman, how can this be alright? Quick quick quick, I want to dress you up again.”

Before she realized, Lu Qipei was already made to sit in front of the dressing table. She looked at the person behind her through the bronze mirror, and her gaze instantly turned soft.
