"What else can we use? Gold coins, of course!" Ye Lang said nonchalantly.

"Gold coins?" Everyone was puzzled. What did this mean? Soon, they understood what the gold coins meant; they really were gold coins.

The Puppet Girl poured out a pile of gold coins from her ring, and a small mountain of gold coins appeared at the Auction House, leaving everyone dumbfounded.

"You guys decide for yourselves!" Ye Lang said with a smile.

"This... it's all gold coins... how could you bring so many gold coins?" Cold-Blooded Seventh realized at this moment that Ye Lang wasn't joking before; he really did bring hundreds of thousands of gold coins.

"Five hundred and eighty thousand, this... Go find the bank and have them count it. How many days will it take to count it, five days, or ten days..." the person in charge of the auction house said.

This time, someone's going to count money until their hands cramp...

"The stuff? Give the stuff to Lady Lei Di first. It's not really worth anything anyway. I believe someone like her wouldn't try to pull any tricks on us in this kind of situation."

The person in charge of the auction house was quite bold, letting Ye Lang take those two items first!

After leaving the auction house, Cold-Blooded Seventh kept staring at Ye Lang with a resentful look in her eyes, but Ye Lang ignored her presence and simply handed the Sapphire Necklace he had just received to Cold-Blooded Fifth.

"Here, this is for you!"

"Huh?" Cold-Blooded Fifth stared blankly at Ye Lang, somewhat confused.

"Take it if you like it, don't be shy! Put it in your Space Pouch, it's tiring for me to carry it." Ye Lang said, at this moment, he was holding the necklace so tightly that it was almost pressing down on him.

"Did you buy this as a gift for me?" Cold-Blooded Fifth asked blankly. She hadn't understood why Ye Lang bought it before, but now she did.

So all of this was for my sake. I never thought that this little fool would see through my thoughts!

At this moment, Cold-Blooded Fifth felt a little touched. Looking at the mini version of Ye Lang holding the necklace, so cute, she smiled again.

"Hurry up and take it, what are you grinning about!" Ye Lang's words interrupted Cold-Blooded Fifth's smile. He coldly took the necklace, put it into his Space Pouch, and walked over to kick Ye Lang hard.

"Ouch..." Ye Lang cried out in pain, then moved a distance away from Cold-Blooded Fifth, squatted down and drew circles on the ground, "I curse you, I curse you! People even bought you a necklace, but I won't buy you anything next time..."

"..."

"You two keep arguing. I wonder what to do this time. It seems I'll have to take matters into my own hands!" Cold-Blooded Seventh looked at the two of them, feeling powerless, but he couldn't blame them.

Given their personalities, are they capable of learning from their mistakes?

"You go ahead and do it yourself, Little Five, let's go have some fun!" Ye Lang said nonchalantly, controlling the puppet to leave and leaving Cold-Blooded Seventh behind.

And so, the three parted ways. Cold-Blooded Seventh went to get close to the royal family, while Ye Lang and his companion came here to play, causing a sensation wherever they went.

The Puppet Girl's beauty would cause a sensation wherever she went, and the Puppet Girl under Ye Lang's control would naturally have an even greater sensational effect, making more and more people in Longcheng aware of the Puppet Girl.

Everyone knows that a stunningly beautiful young woman has appeared in Dragon City. This young woman is a noble lady, a very rich but wasteful spendthrift.

This spendthrift young lady is quite unique. She always uses gold coins to buy things, unlike other nobles who use Gold notes or bank cards. As a result, she has earned another nickname – Miss Gold Coins.

"Hmph, you guys are having a good time. I'm exhausted, but it's a success. I've managed to get two princes and a princess to join me. Now we can carry out our plan..." Cold-Blooded Seventh returned home at night, exhausted. He said this to Ye Lang and the other man who were playing chess, and then went to take a shower and go to bed.

"I have no idea what you're tired of. Maybe someone will come looking for us tomorrow. Things will work themselves out!" Ye Lang said nonchalantly.

These words made both Cold-Blooded Seventh and Cold-Blooded Fifth shake their heads. Relying on this kid was basically impossible; the social scene was never that simple!

However, the next day, both Cold-Blooded Seventh and Cold-Blooded Fifth stared wide-eyed, dumbfounded, and said, "Someone really did come looking for us, and it was..."

"Are you Miss Lady Margot? His Majesty requests your presence at the Imperial Palace!"

"The Emperor? Which Emperor?!" Ye Lang asked blankly.

"... Our current ruler of the Vermilion Bird Empire..."

"Oh..."

This time, it wasn't just someone who came to seek them out; it was the emperor of the Vermilion Bird Empire himself who came to find them. This was more effective and direct than any prince's visit.

What exactly is going on here?

Cold-Blooded Seventh didn't understand why the Vermilion Bird Emperor came to find Ye Lang, nor did he understand why Ye Lang was so lucky!

Yesterday, I exhausted every means, even sacrificing my charm, and worked myself to the bone to barely get a date with a few Imperial Prince, while this little brat, eating, drinking, and having fun, had the opportunity delivered to his doorstep on its own...

What exactly is this called?

Cold-Blooded Seventh doesn't understand, and she never will!

"Understood, please wait for me outside for a while!" After understanding the situation, Ye Lang controlled the Puppet Girl and spoke softly in a very elegant tone.

"Alright, Lady Lei Di, we'll wait outside then. You can take your time, no rush!" The person from the Imperial Palace said politely. Although it was the emperor who invited them, they still maintained the proper attitude for an invitation and did not urge them.

From this perspective, the officials of this Vermilion Bird Empire are very courteous and have a great sense of hospitality!

As the officials left, Cold-Blooded Seventh snapped out of his gloom and asked Ye Lang, "Do you want to change your clothes and put on makeup?"

"?!" Ye Lang looked at Cold-Blooded Seventh in confusion. "What are you talking about? What do you mean by changing clothes and putting on makeup?"

"You called them out and made them wait outside, wasn't it so they could change clothes and put on makeup?" Cold-Blooded Seventh asked curiously. She thought that Ye Lang's Puppet Girl needed to change her clothes and put on makeup because she was going to see the emperor, which was only natural.

Otherwise, why would they make people go out and wait?

"No!" Ye Lang shook his head and replied, "I told them to wait because I hadn't eaten anything this morning!"

"..." Cold-Blooded Seventh was stunned for a moment, "Just because of eating?"

"Hmm! What else did you think?" Ye Lang nodded and prepared to eat the breakfast on the table.

"My young master, what time is it now? You've been summoned by the emperor, and you're still thinking about eating?" Cold-Blooded Seventh shook his head and said helplessly, "Wait a minute, let's see if we can come back sooner so we can continue to see those princes and princesses."

Although there is now an emperor, for safety's sake, she will continue to meet with those Imperial Prince. This way, her efforts yesterday will not have been in vain, and at least, it will make her feel that they have been worthwhile.
