Chu Xiaoxiao was thrown into a book, reincarnating as a cannon fodder meant to be drowned shortly after birth. Outraged, she saved herself and vowed to change her family’s doomed fate.
..."Old Chu is right." Wen Rongsheng suddenly lowered his voice and waved his hand to bring the four people's heads together. "I've asked around. The girl is not only beautiful, but also very charming. One look at her can make people feel numb to the bone and unable to resist at all."
"Is it true?" Shuda was already eager to make a move. "Then I'm going to take a good look tonight to see if it's as tempting as you said, Old Wen?"
Chu Yimo didn't say anything. He just came to join in the fun. He was not interested in the women in Baihua Tower at all.
He has a trauma in his heart about this place and will never do anything reckless again.
He just wanted to drink and watch the fun. As for what the beautiful girl looked like, it had nothing to do with him.
Meng Chenghua also became interested: "Of course there is. I only trust Old Wen for information on this matter. What he says is probably correct."
Wen Rongsheng was not ashamed of it, but proud of it. He laughed out loud, opened the folding fan in his hand with a "swish", and fanned it a few times in a very showy manner.
"Just trust me. My information is always accurate. The girl in my mind is called Hong Ling. She is fifteen years old, extremely beautiful and charming."
"According to what you said, many people's wallets will be in danger tonight." Chu Yimo said lazily, "You guys have your own fun, don't bother me.
My parents are strict and I can't play these games. But you can still watch them. I'll just accompany you to feast your eyes."
Wen Rongsheng put away his fan and said, "Old Chu! You are wrong. Everyone who comes here tonight can only feast their eyes. It is said that Miss Hongling sells her art but not her body.
No matter how much money someone spends or what rights they get from her, they can only watch and have no chance of getting their hands on her.”
Meng Chenghua smiled and shook his head, then took a sip of wine: "Ah? Are you trying to whet everyone's appetite? Are you trying to make a profit from this rare commodity?
We in the business know this kind of trick best, and the madam is quite capable, using that girl to lure so many dignitaries to Baihua Tower to watch the fun."
"She made a lot of money. I heard that you have to pay one or two taels of silver as an entrance fee. Look how many people came here today. How much silver did the madam have to collect?"
"That's her method. We are just here to watch the fun. No matter how much or how little she earns, it has nothing to do with us." Chu Yimo picked up the wine glass, "Come on, come on! Brothers! Let's go."
The four of them clinked glasses, drank, and ate, having a great time.
There was a small stage in the lobby of Baihua Tower, which had been set up. The madam walked up there herself and struck a gong.
“Boom!”
Very appealing.
"Dear guests, tonight is the day when our Miss Hongling will make her debut on stage. We won't say anything. Let Miss Hongling show herself and you can speak for yourself."
After saying that, the madam turned around and shouted upstairs, "Please welcome Miss Hongling!"
“Here it comes!”
As the voice fell, a graceful figure appeared on the railing on the second floor.
It seems as if it walked out of an ancient painting from thousands of years ago, and every touch of style exudes unfathomable charm and fairy-like beauty.
Her eyes were as deep as the stars in the night sky, glowing with alluring light, as if she could see through the secrets of all things in the world.
There is a hint of sadness between the brows, like a trace gently caressed by time, which makes people want to find out more.
Her long hair flows like a waterfall, and every strand exudes a faint fragrance, which is intoxicating.
The clothes on her body were as light as a cicada's wings, fluttering in the wind, as if she was a fairy from the clouds, descending to earth.
The gait is light and graceful, and every step touches people's heartstrings, making people fall for it involuntarily.
Her charm lies not only in her appearance, but also in the charm in her every move.
Her every frown and smile can capture people's hearts and make people willing to give everything for her.
Her voice is like the sound of nature, soft and lingering, which makes people intoxicated and unable to extricate themselves.
That otherworldly temperament seems to not belong to this world, yet it is inextricably linked to this world.
She is like a beautiful legend, making people yearn for and respect her.
Her eyes seemed to contain the mysteries of the universe, and when people gazed at her, it was as if they were seeing the scenery of another world.
She has two temperaments, charming and fairy-like, which intertwined together to form a unique charm.
All the guests present today were stunned as they watched her walk gracefully to the center of the stage.
"Wow! She is truly the most beautiful girl in the world." Shuda was amazed, his eyes glued to her, unable to be pulled away, "This is the first time I have seen such a beautiful girl in my life.
My heart was pounding, and I wanted to touch her hand and feel what it felt like."
"Pah!" Chu Yimo picked up the chopsticks and knocked on Shuda's head, "Wake up! Didn't you hear what Lao Wen said that you can only look but not touch?
No matter how good-looking someone is, what does it have to do with you? We are just here to watch the fun, don’t think wrongly. "
Touching his forehead that was hurt by the beating, Shuda looked unhappy: "I heard what Lao Wen said. I can't touch it, but I can't talk about it. Lao Chu, you hit me too hard. It hurts me."
Chu Yimo hit Shuda again: "It's okay to know it hurts. Don't talk nonsense every day. Be careful of your mouth. Remember, the more beautiful something is, the more you can't touch it easily. It's easy to hurt yourself."
For some reason, he always felt that this woman was extraordinary. She was too beautiful, not like a human. She looked more like a monster and did not belong to this world.
He did not voice his doubts, fearing that the three playboys in front of him would laugh at him.
It is indeed not good to be superstitious. You can only keep this doubt in your heart.
Anyway, after coming here tonight, he doesn't know when he will come to Baihua Tower. No matter who she is, it has nothing to do with him.
Shuda was not convinced: "Look at how timid you are. Old Chu! I look down on you. Why can't I touch a beautiful woman?
Don't think she's reserved now. When someone pays a lot of money for her, she'll be the same as the other women in the building. What's the difference? If she has the ability to sell her art all her life instead of her body, then I still respect her as a person.
In a place like Baihualou, she wanted to be arrogant, but she didn't have the capital to be arrogant. The madam had a dark heart. Once someone offered money, she would even sell out her own ancestors for eighteen generations."
Wen Rongsheng opened his folding fan and shook it a few times: "That's right, but it's a pity that we don't have that much money, otherwise we can spend some money and bid for the ownership of Miss Hongling, and everything will belong to us in the end."
Meng Chenghua didn't dare to say a word. Although he was the son of an imperial merchant, he was willing to pay for a little drinking and keeping a girl.
The money required to take ownership of this woman was too much for him to afford.
There were many dignitaries and rich people coming tonight, so he didn't dare to shout at them. Besides, among the four of them, the one he wanted to make friends with the most was Chu Yimo, whose grandfather was the King of Qin and whose sister was the Imperial Master.
My father said that being on good terms with him was the greatest value that a playboy like me could provide to the family.
