Lotus Pavilion, a world-famous brothel, is located in a villa in the Black Mountain region of Country C, far from the city. According to their requirements, customers going to Lotus Pavilion cannot drive themselves. They must follow the signs to reach the designated destination and then be picked up by a private car and taken to the villa.

Li Zhanting and Gu Momo boarded bus No. 107 as instructed, and then got off at Huahe Road Station. Immediately afterwards, a black minivan stopped behind them and asked, "Want to buy osmanthus flowers and share wine?"

Li Zhanting replied coldly, "It's not like the carefree days of youth anymore," and the two were then invited into the car.

The van circled around Black Mountain a hundred and eighty times before finally parking in the parking lot outside Lotus Tower before nightfall. There, many assassins, all loyal servants of Lotus Tower, were secretly hiding.

However, Gu Momo knew very well that this place was fraught with danger, and there were probably many people hiding their identities and lying in ambush here!

Li Zhanting got out of the car first and habitually reached out to help Gu Momo.

Gu Momo patted his shoulder, then frantically winked at him: "Brother, it's not like I can't get down by myself, you're too kind."

A wicked smile played in her eyes, and a handsome smile curved at the corners of her exquisite eyes. She was exceptionally handsome, with an added touch of roguish charm, making her look exactly like a wealthy young master who frequented brothels.

Li Zhanting, who was beside her, was also wearing a human skin mask, and his entire demeanor had changed, making it impossible for anyone to discern his true nature.

Li Zhanting looked at Gu Momo with feigned indifference: "Then you should be careful later, and protect yourself first if anything happens."

"Okay!" Gu Momo readily agreed, as she naturally cherished her life.

They had long received intelligence that, despite the seemingly harmonious atmosphere within the Lotus Pavilion, there were already people inside plotting to defect.

All they need to do is find this person with treacherous intentions, and that will be the key to breaking through the Lotus Tower!

Although the name Lotus Pavilion sounds ancient, the villa itself is built in a very European style.

Led by the waiter at the door, the two entered the building, passed through the magnificent hall, and took a 1990s-style manual elevator down to the ground floor, which is the actual location of the Lotus Pavilion.

Li Zhanting booked the Agarwood Pavilion on the second floor. As soon as the two entered, they were surrounded by five or six women dressed in Tang suits.

"Sir, you're welcome to come and visit!"

"Sir, your skin is so good! Teach us how to take care of it. It's even more delicate than ours."

"Sir, who of us would like to keep you company tonight?"

The women chattered away, their voices so loud that Gu Momo's ears were practically ringing.

Gu Momo quickly shook off their hands: "Don't panic, don't panic, the night is still long!"

Although she likes beautiful women, she really has no interest in women who offer themselves to her.

On the other hand, although the women were with Li Zhanting, they didn't dare to touch him at all, probably because they were all intimidated by his sharp aura.

Li Zhanting said coldly, "Go out first, and come back in when you need me."

The women exchanged glances and eventually obediently left.

The view from Chenxiang Pavilion is excellent. The courtyard design allows you to see into the main hall through the railings. The men are mesmerized, and the women sway gracefully in various poses, creating a scene reminiscent of the elegant brothels in period dramas.

"What do you plan to do?" Li Zhanting sat at the round table, toying with a small purple clay teapot and teacup on the table.

Gu Momo pointed to a woman in a private room in the lobby, wearing a bright red flower and exuding charm:

"I can't get any information out of these ordinary women. I want that one."

A woman who can wear a rose-pink peony behind her ear without being overshadowed must be the most beautiful woman in the world.

To extract crucial information, you'll have to observe the performance of these courtesans!

"Okay." Li Zhanting only responded with a single word. Ten minutes later, Gu Momo saw a man dressed as a waiter run up to the courtesan and whisper a few words in her ear. Immediately afterwards, the woman walked gracefully upstairs.

Half a minute later, there was a knock on the door, and the woman walked in, waving an exquisite embroidered silk fan. "I heard that you two gentlemen wanted to see me? What brings you here?"

It was only at this moment that Gu Momo noticed that she was wearing a gold openwork mask, the design of which was inspired by butterfly wings, adding to her mystery.

Compared to those women who fawned over her, she was indeed more poised and elegant, with every gesture exuding refinement.

"May I ask your surname?" Gu Momo spread her legs, rested her elbows naturally on the table, and sat with an elegant posture.

The courtesan waved her fan and chuckled, "Sir, those of us in this line of work don't use our real names. If you don't know how to address me, just call me Willow Catkins. You two can speak directly to me; there's no need for such beating around the bush."

Gu Momo chuckled wickedly, her eyes sparkling with a carefree and unrestrained joy, like a dashing young man: "Alright. Lord Liuxu, actually, we came here this time not only for fun, but more importantly, we want some intelligence."

Liu Xu paused for a moment while pouring tea for the two men, then said casually, "I'm truly sorry to have made you both laugh. I'm just a hostess at Lotus Pavilion. I wonder where you got the idea that I'm the owner?"

"Lotus Pavilion deals in intelligence trading. There are beauties everywhere here, but Miss Liu Xu is different from everyone else." Gu Momo's gaze was sincere, and her peach blossom eyes, which looked at everyone with deep affection, always made people fall in love at first sight.

Her handsome, almond-shaped eyes curved into a charmingly roguish smile: "Miss Liu Xu seems to be soliciting customers, but I have observed carefully that every time you smile or frown, you make eye contact with one of the girls upstairs. So it is reasonable to guess that you are passing on information to them, and they are acting entirely according to your instructions."

"Furthermore, although Miss Liu Xu also wears makeup, people who have held high positions for many years and are good at coordinating various affairs always have an undisguised sharpness in their eyes. This professional characteristic cannot be changed by makeup. Of course, the most important point is that Miss Liu Xu holds the fan slightly differently from other young ladies, and you have calluses of varying degrees on your index finger and the base of your thumb, which is clearly because you often handle guns; am I right, Miss Liu Xu?"

Liu Xu was very happy to be coaxed. She was used to men's sweet talk, but she had never met a man like Gu Momo before!

They are people who have walked on the edge of a knife for many years, how could they not love a man who has both intelligence and good looks?

"Heh, you two are indeed extraordinary!" Liu Xu smiled alluringly, a sharp glint in her eyes that she had never seen before. "Why don't you two tell me what kind of information you want?"
