Detective Ghost Empress

Chapter 18: I want to go home !

” I got you, your majesty!” Liu Hui Ying turned to look at the face of the elderly woman standing behind her, with her lips that were painted redder than the apples, powdered to the point that she looked paler than the moon and wrinkles that cross crossed their way throughout her face, the woman looked just as scary as the ghost.

Liu Hui Ying who was suddenly caught by this strange-looking woman stared at her face for two seconds before she turned around and started to flail in the arms of the woman again. ” I don’t know who you are but you better let go of me before I deliver a German suplex to you, just so you know I am a very strong woman!”

“Yes, yes..her majesty is really strong,” the woman didn’t let go of Liu Hui Ying but at the same time spoke to her as if she was coaxing a child, Liu Hui Ying who for some unknown reasons was treated as a six-year-old at the spiritual age of thirty-six, turned to look at the woman with goosebumps crawling all over her skin as she scrunched up her nose and spoke in a disgruntled voice, ” You speak to me in that voice again and I am gonna make your soul fly off, old woman!”

” O..Old woman?” This time the elderly woman did let go of Liu Hui Ying as she clasped the spot where her heart was and cried in a loud voice, ” Your majesty! What’s wrong with you? I just left you for three days, how come you became like this?”

” Looks like she knows you,” commented Li Gang as they stared at the wailing and howling old woman with tears running down her cheeks. ” Shouldn’t you stop her, she is looking scarier than me.”

That much was true since there was no such thing as waterproof makeup at this time as the old woman sobbed tears of agony, her powdered face started to look more and more scary.

Liu Hui Ying looked at the old woman before she raised her hands but she only used her hands to beat others, she has never used to coax anyone, especially someone who cried this loud. After a long pause as she flailed her hands, she took out her handkerchief and covered the face of the old woman.

.....

Since she couldn’t see her face, there was no need for her to feel bad either.

” She is hiding the evidence,” said Jia Li.

” I didn’t think that you were such a person, Ying’er,” chimed in Grandma Lan Fen with her hand cupping her cheek.

Li Gang on the other hand clasped his hands behind his head and said, ” But I knew that you were this kind of ruthless person, you truly deserve to be the boss of a gang leader like me.”

Liu Hui Ying: “.....” I don’t wish to acknowledge them!

“Nanny Gong!” Just as Liu Hui Ying was feeling a bit hopeless about her situation, Qui Ai came running in their direction. She hurried over to Nanny Gong as she crouched on the ground and asked worriedly, ” Nanny Gong, what’s the matter? Why are you crying like this who made you cry?”

The guilty Liu Hui Ying tried to slowly sneak off but this time Qui Ai was prepared, she immediately raised her head and ordered the maid below her, ” Catch her majesty and don’t let her run away.”

Immediately a bunch of maids stepped forward and apprehended Liu Hui Ying like a criminal. Seeing her situation, Liu Hui Ying’s right twitched as she inwardly thought, ‘ they are quite fortunate that they are women if not I would have broken their hands! How dare they treat her, the head of City Y’s detective department! Do they even know who she was?’

” WHAT?!! HER MAJESTY LOST HER MEMORIES?” Nanny Gong who was coaxed and calmed by Qui Ai shrieked as she whipped her head to look at Liu Hui Ying who was sitting on a stool while wearing the most uncomfortable dress of her life. ” Your majesty, you don’t remember... your favourite Nanny Gong?”

” No,” answered Liu Hui Ying rubbing her waist, gosh why did they have to tie so many layers? It felt like she was going to be crushed! Seeing that Nanny Gong’s eyes once again filled with tears, Liu Hui Ying instantly raised her hands. ” Don’t...Don’t cry again or else your makeup will be ruined.” And my mood.

Nanny Gong sniffed as she summoned her tears back and wiped her eyes, ” If I knew that something so terrible will happen I wouldn’t have even thought about leaving you, your majesty.”

” It doesn’t matter, Nanny Gong,” Qui Ai too sobbed as she patted Nanny Gong’s arm. ” Her Majesty is all right, that’s what matters the most, right?”

” That’s right, that’s right,” said Nanny Gong as she nodded and picked up the heavy crown on the cabinet next to the dressing table and approached Liu Hui Ying. Though she was holding a golden crown, Liu Hui Ying felt like she was approaching her with an axe, as she retreated back and tilted her neck back. ” You are kidding right, you want me to wear that thing?”

” Your majesty, please be respectful ...this is the crown of the Empress,” nanny Gong hurriedly looked around to make sure that no one heard Liu Hui Ying and then without giving Liu Hui Ying a chance to refuse strapped the crown in place causing Liu Hui Ying’s neck to bury a few inches. ” This the evidence of your identity, your majesty... please be polite to it.”

“Yeah, I can totally feel it....” This heavy of a crown can only belong to a heavy position like the Empress!

” Okay now, you are ready your majesty,” said Nanny Gong as she helped Liu Hui Ying up. ” Watch your step, your majesty!” She hurriedly caught Liu Hui Ying when the latter flailed and almost broke her neck.

Liu Hui Ying clasped her fingers around her throat and suddenly started sobbing, ” I want to go home.” Look at this she only wore this stupid crown and almost died!
