Chapter 164

…

…

A few minutes later, the steady sound of the sewing machine rang throughout the stream.

Xiang Qi tied the hair on his forehead into a small ponytail, revealing clear and defined eyebrows as he focused attentively… Adding white lace to the edges of the tablecloth.

The live comments:

——[Ah, this is what a real tough guy should be doing!!]

——[Holy f*ck, for a manly dude like Hades, his hands are really nimble!]

——[Our Hades’ professional abilities must be seen! He is proficient in tailoring, sewing, and embroidery!]

——[Why does his little assistant look so stunned? Doesn’t seem super bright to me]

…

Roman, or Hades’ assistant, watched with big eyes as his designer cut the precious fabrics into a tablecloth!

This fabric had been prepared for future projects!

Some designers use ready-made fabrics that were on the market, but Hades was different. Every piece of his was individually designed by himself, sometimes even dying the fabrics himself as well.

The raw materials, techniques, and dyes he’d used were all top of the line even in the industry, but now it was being turned into a tablecloth…

With every tablecloth, Roman felt his heart bleed.

He closed his eyes, pretending not to feel the pain.

Xiang Qi made seven or eight tablecloths, unable to stop. It was Xiang Yi who stopped him.

“It’s enough, more than enough, even if we change it every day, we can use it for a long time.”

“Okay. This will be enough.” Xiang Qi suddenly perked up. “Heh, I suddenly feel inspiration…”

Roman shook his eyes open, unable to hide his excitement.

Was he going to design a new piece?!

Was he going to witness the birth of a prodigious designer piece?!!

The next second——

“This lace edge would go so well with a creamy yellow apron!” Xiang Qi pointed at the other fabric that Roman brought and instructed, “Since you already have an apron, then we must make some matching hair ties! Right now, aren’t those — what’s it called, sausage braids? Aren’t they trendy…”

Jiang Chen raised his hand. “It’s not called sausage…”

Xiang Qi: “Eh, then what is it? Cured meat?”

Jiang Chen carefully explained, “Last time, the makeup miss told me that since they looked like large intestines from a pig, they were called large intestine rings*…”

“Eh, sounds gross.” Xiang Qi said with a look of disgust. He then turned to Xiang Yi. “Hey, I want to eat stir-fried peppers with large intestines tonight.”

“…Okay.”

With that, Xiang Qi happily turned back to his work.

Roman once again shut his eyes…

…

Two hours later.

Under Xiang Qi’s instruction, Roman complied in helping him make a dozen or so aprons in various styles. Some had lace edges while others had oversized bows, and even some had fuzzy pom-poms on them.

Along with them were a dozen or so scrunchies…

The scrunchies were all in cloudlike wavy shapes, with flora patterns, plaid, solid colors, made out of silk, velvet… every single hair tie looking extremely delicate.

A series of rainbow farts began to take off in the stream.

——[My god, Hades is amazing! All of these are so youthful and girlish!]

——[I want it! I need it! I want to buy them! OP, hurry, give me a link! /doge]

——[No wonder he is a master; even a small object he makes out of the blue is so beautiful Q_Q I am so envious of Xiang Yi!]

…

Xiang Qi was very satisfied with these finished products as he held them in his arms, pretending to walk out of the kitchen for a stroll as he cleared his throat.

Xiang Yi, who had been busy preparing the ingredients, turned around at the sound. Seeing it was him, her eyes formed into little half-moons as she happily trotted over to him. She then stood on her toes and stuffed a small biscuit in his mouth.

“Is it good?” The girl sweetly smiled.

“!”

Xiang Qi’s throat choked up. He forgot how to chew as he swallowed the biscuit whole!

*Translator’s Note: I believe this refers to oversized scrunchies
