Li Xue looked at Feng Yi Lan and smiled. And seeing her smile like that, Feng Yi Lan narrowed her eyes at her. "Hey, girl, what's going on your head? This smile of yours is not simple." She said and Li Xue just chuckled at her guess. 

"What do you think?" She asked and Feng Yi Lan's eyes shone with excitement. 

"Don't say, it's exactly what I am thinking. Is it?" She asked and Li Xue's two brows joined in befuddlement to reply. 

"That depends on what you are thinking, dear? So, what's going in your thoughts."

Feng Yi Lan clapped with excitement as turning more to Li Xue, she said, "Are you finally escaping from the claws of my Devil brother? Which prince has ridden the white horse for you?" She said and at her word, Li Xue was dumbfounded for a moment. 

It took some time when she finally understood what her friend has actually said and she couldn't believe it. Luckily Mr. Beelzebub was not around. If he had been here, the air around might have already frozen. 

"Yi Lan, what absurd are you talking about? What prince? Did you forget, I am already married to your brother? Furthermore, there could be no prince in this world that could match the charms and qualities of your brother supreme. He is best and I can't look at someone else."

"Then what's the use of you becoming the princess?" Feng Yi Lan's excitement at once dimmed down as she turned away to sigh. "Even the life of the princess would not be able to change your illusions about my brother since the devil has taken the control of your heart and thoughts. Now only a miracle curse would be able to help you away from him." 

Li Xue shook her head at her words. "Dear, you don't know yet. Princes are not as charming as you think. Rather they are more manipulating and cunning than one can think. Same as one I have met." She said and hearing her say that Feng Yi Lan turned to look at her with a raise of interest on her brows. 

"I smell something interesting there. Want to share?" She asked and Li Xue chuckled before shaking her head in denial. 

"That would be a long story dear. I don't think we can afford it at the moment since we still have things to look over about the gathering. Let's discuss this later." Li Xue said before gesturing for her to look at the entrance from where maids were bringing in the pair of cloth loop stand inside. 

Feng Yi Lan turned to look at them as well and stood up. "Oh, it's already here. I have been waiting for it all this while." She said as she walked to check if everything was in line. 

Li Xue looked at her, before turning to look at the maid. Though she didn't intend to ask anything, feeling the gaze on herself, the maid herself answered. "Madam, Second Young Miss's people were here with all these dresses. They said Second Young Miss asked them to bring it here." 

Feng Yi Lan heard the maid reporting and at once turned to look at Li Xue. "Yes, it was me, sweetheart. I asked them to bring all these dresses for you here. And this was the preparation I was talking about on the call." 

She said and Li Xue nodded to her before looking at the maid to say. "It's okay, you can go now to help others inside. We will call you afterward." She said and politely bowing to her, the maid left at once. 

Feng Yi Lan looked at the changed attitude of her friend and was impressed. Folding her arms over her chest, she said, "Oh I see, someone has been practicing all this while. A perfect high-class lady who knows well the manners to treat the servants. Good, good. The change is for good and later, no one would be able to raise their fingers at you." 

She said, and at her compliment, Li Xue shook her head, "Ah, that's been for the consistent words of Sister Margaret. She has guided me well to bring me up to this point. Otherwise, I still don't find it necessary since I can myself do my work." 

Feng Yi Lan shook her head. "It's not just as simple as that dear. You are not any wife of a wealthy businessman. You are going to be the matriarch of our family when my brother would succeed the power of patriarch. At that time, this skill would be one of those that will help you in managing family affairs. Do you get it?" 

She said, and even though Li Xue was not totally aware of those family affairs, she could still understand the importance that her friend was talking about. "Partially. I will try to learn more about it later. But before that tell me why have you brought all these dresses here. I already have a lot in the closet. For the gathering, I would have chosen something from there." 

Feng Yi Lan's lips got immediately pursed at her suggestion. Growing her eyes big at her words, she said, "What did you say? Wear something from your own collection? Darling, do you know how tough it was for me to shortlist these dresses for you? First of all, your husband and my brother didn't say about you coming to that gathering. And now that I have come to know about it from Brother Shuai, you are saying that all these are not needed. Do you think I am the only crazy one to fret over these things here?" 

Li Xue shook her head. She definitely didn't intend to say that. "Yi Lan, I didn't mean that. It's just that I remember there are many new dresses in the closet that I have yet to wear. I could manage it from there. Why to …"

Before she could say more, Feng Yi Lan reached out to hold her by her shoulders. "Xiao Xue, you are not going to some evening party where you can manage the clothes from your closet. You are officially going to introduce yourself as the wife of my brother and future matriarch of the family. You need to exude a proper aura for that. Don't underestimate the occasion. Moreover, now you are no simple woman. You are also a princess from the Royal family. So, carry yourself more like that, okay?" 

She said and thinking about her words for a moment, Li Xue nodded. 

Seeing agree to her finally, Feng Yi Lan smiled. "That's great. And believe me, preparing a bit more wouldn't make you exaggerate it. You will be good and most suitable there. So just trust me blindly, okay?" 

Li Xue looked at the dresses hung on the loop stand and took a deep breath. "Fine, let's select one from here then." She said before finally getting to check out the designs. Indeed, she couldn't make it simple. Although she doesn't know the people of the family yet, it would be worst to take them as easy. After all, battles could never be won underestimating your enemies. For everything, she would need to be ready from before.. So later when the time comes, she doesn't give them a chance to corner her in any way.
