"Just call me Frank, it's a nice name!"

"..." The way you put it, everyone knows you're not Frank anymore. Cold-Blooded Fifth and the others were ashamed.

"You're not called Frank?" Cold-Blooded Fifth asked, as this was the first time she had heard of this.

"How did you know?" Ye Lang asked, puzzled.

"..."

Everyone knows that now! Could you be any dumber?!

"What was your original name?" Cold-Blooded Fifth asked.

"You're so stupid. I already told you, but my sister told me not to say it anymore," Ye Lang replied.

"Then who is your sister?" Cold-Blooded Seventh asked, knowing that he could still get the answer by asking in a roundabout way. He believed that Ye Lang, who was so oblivious, would easily fall for it.

Of course, this is just her opinion!

In fact—

"Are you stupid? Telling you who my sister is is the same as telling you who I am!! You're so dumb! Little Five, tell me, isn't she stupid!" Ye Lang looked at Cold-Blooded Seventh with a pitiful expression, his eyes clearly conveying the thought, "You're a fool, you're an idiot..."

Cold-Blooded Seventh's face was a mixture of pale and ashen, looking extremely ugly. He had actually been called stupid by an idiot!

"Pfft..."

Little Zero, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but laugh. She had been following Ye Lang and the others since the beginning.

"Hmm!" Cold-Blooded Fifth replied coldly, nodding in agreement with Ye Lang's statement.

"You..." Cold-Blooded Seventh was about to explode. Her feelings for Ye Lang had disappeared, and the scales of hatred were beginning to tip.

She decided to treat Ye Lang like a shuttlecock...

You're going to cook later, right? Great, I'll add some ingredients for you!

Cold-Blooded Seventh quickly put on a smiling face, as if nothing had happened. As expected of the female con artist leader, her face-changing ability was faster than turning the pages of a book.

"Why did you suddenly laugh? Oh, I know, you must be planning something bad!" Ye Lang pointed at Cold-Blooded Seventh and said, "Little Seven said that if a woman suddenly goes from being angry to laughing, there must be something wrong, and you should keep your distance from her."

"..." Cold-Blooded Seventh remained silent.

"Little Seven?" Cold-Blooded Fifth and Little Zero were a little confused. Who was this Little Seven? It was obviously not referring to Cold-Blooded Seventh.

"How could I do anything bad? Don't listen to what people are saying. I'm just happy thinking about making you dinner!" Cold-Blooded Seventh smiled gently, like a kind older sister.

"Really?" Ye Lang asked doubtfully.

Needless to say, it's fake!

Cold-Blooded Fifth and Little Zero both said at the same time, somewhat helpless that Ye Lang would even ask such a question, and even more helpless was—

"Of course it's true!" Cold-Blooded Fifth said.

"Oh, then hurry up and get something to eat, I'm hungry!" Ye Lang actually believed Cold-Blooded Seventh.

"Okay, I'll go get it right now!" Cold-Blooded Seventh glanced at Little Zero with a warning look, as if he wanted her to shut up and not say anything.

However, what effect would this have? There was still Cold-Blooded Fifth present. If Cold-Blooded Fifth spoke, wouldn't it be the same?

Perhaps it was because Cold-Blooded Seventh thought that Cold-Blooded Fifth wouldn't cause so much trouble, and besides, she didn't even know what her purpose was.

"You little fool, you'd better watch out for this woman," Cold-Blooded Fifth said directly to his face.

"Be careful of her, I don't have time for her, I have to keep her in mind!" Ye Lang said, ignoring her.

"..." Cold-Blooded Fifth was silent for a moment, then said, "That's true!"

That's right. If you're going to be wary of someone, you have to keep that person in mind. Ye Lang doesn't have time to keep people in mind. To him, Cold-Blooded Seventh is just a passerby, a passerby who doesn't even have the right to stay in his heart for half a moment.

"Hmph!" Cold-Blooded Seventh. She didn't care whether Ye Lang cared about her or not; she just wanted to teach Ye Lang a lesson.

As a result, Ye Lang returned to Cold-Blooded Fifth's courtyard and waited for a while before Cold-Blooded Seventh brought over a table of delicious food and placed it in front of Ye Lang.

"Eat up, this was cooked by me personally. Even if I eat you to death, you can die in peace!" Cold-Blooded Seventh said rudely.

Given this situation, most people would be scared off and wouldn't dare to eat it. However, Ye Lang jumped up, picked up a piece of rib with a fork, and stuffed it into his mouth.

Although Cold-Blooded Seventh had already cut it into relatively small pieces, it was still a bit too big for Ye Lang. However, what was surprising was that he actually took a bite out of it.

"..."

Cold-Blooded Fifth, Cold-Blooded Seventh, and Little Zero all stared wide-eyed at Ye Lang in astonishment, wondering how he had managed to swallow it.

"Hmm... the taste is alright, not bad!" Ye Lang said. Cold-Blooded Seventh felt very dissatisfied with this evaluation, as he thought his cooking was quite good.

In order to deceive people and impersonate others, a swindler needs to learn certain skills. Therefore, Cold-Blooded Seventh is proficient in all kinds of skills, including cooking.

When I was lying, some people praised my cooking skills, but I never expected that this little one would only give me a "not bad" or "not bad" evaluation.

Never mind, you'll see how powerful this is soon enough!!

"Cold-Blooded Fifth, why aren't you eating?" Cold-Blooded Seventh watched Ye Lang eat, and also noticed that the two people next to him hadn't touched their chopsticks and had been watching from the side.

From Little Zero's eyes, I could see that she was worried about Ye Lang, but she didn't dare to say it!

"I'm afraid I'll get poisoned if I eat your stuff!" Cold-Blooded Fifth said coldly.

"You knew I put drugs in my food?" Cold-Blooded Seventh looked at Cold-Blooded Fifth suspiciously. Of course, she didn't doubt that Cold-Blooded Fifth couldn't tell. Even if he couldn't, she could have tested him. She wouldn't have just started eating like Ye Lang.

"Now we can be sure!" Cold-Blooded Fifth said. She had only suspected it before. No one knew what Cold-Blooded Seventh was going to do. They knew she would harm people, but they didn't know how she would do it.

"If that's the case, why did you let this little guy eat? Didn't you stop him?" Cold-Blooded Seventh was puzzled by this. Cold-Blooded Fifth knew there was something wrong with the food, yet he didn't stop Ye Lang.

Even if she had doubts earlier and didn't say anything, now that it's confirmed, there's no reason to let Ye Lang continue to eat and drink to his heart's content.

"Why should we stop him?" Cold-Blooded Fifth retorted.

"Don't you care about him? Aren't you afraid something will happen to him?" Cold-Blooded Seventh asked suspiciously. Was Cold-Blooded Fifth still the same Cold-Blooded Fifth, still as cold-blooded as before, indifferent to the life and death of others?

"I'm afraid something will happen to him!" Cold-Blooded Fifth said.

"Then why not stop him?" Cold-Blooded Seventh was a little confused. She cared about him, yet watched him eat the problematic food. What kind of logic was that?

"Why should you stop him? Your dish is no problem for him at all," Cold-Blooded Fifth said.
