**Chapter 572: Feichi: I Have an Ominous Premonition [Bonus Chapter for Lord Meng, Barrel Horse Enters the Fortress]**
By past nine in the morning, after Chi Kana got up, she whispered with Lydia in the Kitchen. She looked speechlessly at Chi Feichi sitting in the Living Room, then turned her head and said a couple more words to Lydia.
Lydia nodded and left the Kitchen. Only after Chi Feichi hung up the phone and got up did she brace herself and ask, "Young Master Fei Chi, you seemed to say yesterday that Madam is over forty years old. Do you think she's old?"
Chi Feichi turned his head towards the Kitchen and saw Chi Kana behind the glass partition looking completely calmly. He gave Lydia a speechless glance, then carried Feichi back to the Room. "Not old."
Lydia: "..."
She seemed to understand the meaning conveyed by that glance. Summarized, it was just one sentence—
You guys are so troublesome!
...
Da Shan Mi's efficiency in handling business was still very high. He bought a Machine Room before noon.
Chi Feichi went out before lunch started. He inspected the Machine Room and uploaded the location program to the server.
After the meal, the Secretary and the Middle-aged Man seen before delivered the formal dresses. They organized them, set by set.
"We'll go after having afternoon tea. There won't be much time to eat at night, so if you don't eat something in advance, you'll be hungry. Afternoon tea will be moved up to four o'clock. If you feel you can't eat much, you don't need to eat too much. Afterwards, we're going to the Yan Family and will go together with the Yan Family members," Chi Kana said to Chi Feichi while choosing a formal dress. "This isn't a particularly formal Banquet, and there will be Children there, so wearing something too formal will make people feel constrained... By the way, before you went to the Tokiwa Group, did you wear a tailcoat?"
Chi Feichi nodded. He knew that Da Shan Mi was not only his Old Dad's 'spy' but also served as his Old Mom's 'spy'. "I was just making a joke with them."
"That was a very nasty joke, you know. Oyama was scared, and Miss Tokiwa was probably quite scared too," Chi Kana took two sets of clothes down from the rack and turned her head to say. "For this Banquet, you don't need to be overly formal, but you should have proper attire. This is respect for others. If it were just a Banquet in Japan, a general suit would be fine, but the Barclay Family will also be there, and they will definitely dress a bit more formal. So, let's wear a Lounge Suit. Which set do you want to wear?"
Chi Feichi looked at the two sets of clothes. Besides the coat being black or white, there was no difference. "Black, no bow tie, a solid black necktie."
Thanks to his His Mom's strict requirements for attire when attending events, having seen his His Dad being nagged at often during his childhood, he could also distinguish the difference between various types of formal dress.
Tailcoat is also called full dress, used for attending particularly formal activity, such as grand ceremony, Banquets held by the Queen, diplomacy, and similar occasions.
Furthermore, there's also a type of tailcoat worn during daytime for outdoor ceremony or when solemnly welcoming and sending off distinguished guests. The difference lies in the vest color. Unlike the former's white vest, the latter wears a black vest. He wore this outfit last time he went to the Tokiwa Group.
That joke was indeed scary. Da Shan Mi and Tokiwa Mio were both quite scared.
If it were a bit more formal, attending outdoor Ceremony Activity during the daytime would also require adding a top hat, but he was really indifferent to top hats.
As for standard formal wear, putting aside the color requirements, it's probably the outfit Kaito Kid wears.
The jacket is not a tailcoat style, with lapels, and a white shirt. It indicates attendance at general outdoor Ceremony Activity, but usually, it's paired with a necktie instead of a bow tie.
And Lounge Suit refers to Formal Dress similar to a regular suit, used for informal evening activity. The jacket lapels on both sides are black satin, and both trouser legs are decorated with black satin. It's paired with a black vest and a white shirt, and the bow tie color also has specific requirements.
He didn't choose a black bow tie but specified a solid black necktie. The intention of the attire was... someone in the family had passed away, signifying mourning.
Chi Kana also understood Chi Feichi's intention. She packed up the formal dress and handed it to Chi Feichi. "That Child is a member of the Home, so you should dress like this. Go change your clothes. I'll help you with the cufflinks when you come out later."
Chi Feichi received the clothes. "Then you..."
"That's my Child too," Chi Kana turned around and took a black formal dress. With her back to Chi Feichi, she said softly, "I'm very sorry, I didn't attend his baptism ceremony."
"It's okay, you don't need to wear black," Chi Feichi said. "I just wanted to provoke Thomas a bit. Noah is fine."
"Then... how about this set?" Chi Kana didn't insist. She turned around and took another set of black formal dress with silver dots.
"Very good." Chi Feichi immediately hugged the clothes and slipped away.
"And this set, I think..." Chi Kana took another set of formal dress. She turned her head only to find that Chi Feichi was already gone. She sighed. "Can't you help me look?... Huh? Feichi?"
Feichi found that he had been left behind by Chi Feichi in the Living Room of Room 1103. He ran off the Sofa and had just crawled to the Dining Room Entrance when he was picked up by a hand.
"Don't run around randomly. Keep me company while I choose clothes." Chi Kana carried Feichi back to a row of formal dresses and glanced at Lydia. "Lydia, you don't run off either."
Lydia paused, turned her head to look at Chi Kana and smiled. "Okay, Madam."
Feichi: "..."
Suddenly, he had an ominous premonition.
He seemed to understand why his Master ran so fast.
"Although Fei Chi said so, don't wear overly bright colors. Still stick mainly to black..."
"This set? No, Lydia, I'm already over forty years old. The style should be a bit more subtle... What do you say, Feichi?"
"This set won't do. It's too formal and dignified, makes me look old, and lacks approachability..."
"This set is too gorgeous, and with such a heavy color, it will make others feel distant, right, Feichi?"
"This set reveals too much. I said, I'm not a Little Girl anymore..."
"This set's style is too old-fashioned. I want a bit of trend elements. Don't forget, Fielder is a Regular Customer of fashion shows..."
"Never mind, we should check which set from before..."
Feichi froze: "..."
He really wanted to imitate a Human having a breakdown and holding their head, but he didn't have hands.
This was truly a sad matter.
After choosing three satisfactory sets, Chi Kana handed Feichi to Lydia, hugged the clothes, and returned to the Room. She started trying on clothes, asking for opinion, finding problems, changing clothes, asking for opinion again, finding problems, comparison...
Feichi was held by Lydia, occasionally glancing at the clock on the Wall, expectantly hoping Chi Feichi could come out and rescue him.
An hour passed. There wasn't a single movement Next Door in 1102.
Finally, Chi Kana chose a black mermaid dress with bare shoulders, a silver-black waistband, and silver flakes decoration on the skirt hem. This was the set from initially.
Feichi lay weakly in Lydia's hand, sighing about what meaning this past hour had held, when he suddenly saw Chi Kana walk to the Room Door and stop again.
Chi Kana turned her head and smiled. "Lydia, bring Feichi over and help me look at my hairstyle."
Feichi stiffened: "..."
He was just a snake. Even if he offered opinion, others besides his Master couldn't hear him. Could she please let go of him?
Don't torture a snake like this.
...
Chi Feichi stayed in the Room for over two hours, sorting through the intelligence recently sent by Yingqu Yan Nan and Saki Midorikawa, sending emails, making transfers. Guessing the time was about right, he then went to take a bath and change clothes.
Meanwhile, in Chi Kana's Room...
After choosing her hairstyle, accessories, and makeup, Chi Kana was also almost finished packing up. She lowered her head, looking at her mobile phone and sending a text message. "Lydia... Should the lipstick color be a bit lighter?"
"It's light enough already. Any lighter and you'll look listless." Lydia fixed a silver crown made of petals onto Chi Kana's pinned-up hair.
"Change to black?"
"The style is too dark. It's not suitable for you."
Feichi, lying on the Dressing Table, raised his eyes and looked at Chi Kana in the mirror. He sighed.
Beautiful.
The Goddess was still a Goddess, but his heart was so tired, powerless to appreciate.
And don't expect his Master to come and rescue him anymore.
Before, his Master actually escaped without him. His Master was truly awful.
After Chi Kana sent the text message, she put away her mobile phone. "I've arranged for the people in Boston to act five hours later. First, expose the scandal of Thomas's two Illegitimate Child. Thomas's Illegitimate Child got many Girls pregnant. Two years ago, he met a Girl who refused to have an abortion and beat her until she miscarried. Thomas's Illegitimate Daughter didn't do any bad deeds, but it's a pity, she's not Thomas's Child..."
Huh? Something to listen to?
Feichi immediately perked up, preparing to do some long-awaited live eavesdropping work.
Lydia turned her head and looked at the closed Room Door, asking in a low voice, "Have you decided to do this?"
"At the end of the Game Launch Event, Thomas will receive news that his Son has been invited to the Police Department for investigation. Afterwards, he will receive news that his Daughter has no blood relation to him. After that, he will receive news that his Company is about to collapse," Chi Kana lowered her eyes and looked towards Feichi. Her Gaze was dark and deep, but her voice still carried a gentle and restrained magnetic quality. She reached out and stroked Feichi. "Thomas shouldn't have let Fei Chi get involved with Hiroki. Since he let them get involved, he shouldn't have let anything happen to Hiroki. Although I have the least qualification to say this, he made my Child sad, so I have to make him sad. What do you say, Feichi?"
Feichi, feeling the warm finger glide across his back, understood for the first time what the Human phrase 'scalp numbing' felt like.
He suspected that if he were disobedient, he would be pinched to death by Chi Kana with a gentle expression the next second...
Lydia was used to it and kept her eyes down and her thoughts to herself.
Ah, Madam has entered her darkened state again. Just get used to it.
"Feichi..." After Chi Kana's finger glided across Feichi's back, it moved back to Feichi's top of head, as if she was just very intimately tapping her pet's forehead. She asked softly, "Have you ever bitten your Master?"
"No, absolutely not!" Feichi immediately made a statement. After thinking for a bit, he thought he probably needed to shake his head to indicate it, so Chi Kana could understand.
Chi Kana just asked casually. She quickly looked away and said in a low voice after getting up, "Lydia, have Vincent arrange Bodyguards in the dark place, in case Thomas does something desperate. Later, find an opportunity to secretly go and tell him these things. Don't tell Fei Chi, and don't let him know. I don't want him to think his Mother is scary... Let's go. Take Feichi out. He should be ready by now. If he can't find Feichi, he might be anxious."
"Okay." Lydia reached out and picked up Feichi, following Chi Kana out. She looked at the motionless Feichi in her hand. "Madam, did you just now scare Feichi? He's stopped moving."
"Is that so?" Chi Kana turned her head and innocently examined Feichi. "What could he possibly know?"
"Animals have a strong sense of crisis," Lydia brought Feichi in front of her eyes and observed him for a moment, but couldn't see anything. "He probably felt the danger."
"Rest assured, if he felt danger, he should have bitten me already. Counterattack is also an animal's instinct," Chi Kana saw Chi Feichi come over from the Dining Room and smiled at Lydia in a low voice. "Moreover, even if he was scared, it doesn't matter. He can't report, and small animals forget quickly."
Feichi also saw Chi Feichi and hurriedly struggled free from Lydia's hand, darting towards Chi Feichi with a 'whoosh'. "Ma- Ma- Master...!"

Mrs. Kana was so broken just now. It wants to report her!
