"Master, why did you think of bringing me here to play this game?" Lanqin took off her cloak with the help of the maids standing in the room. The Fourth Master also took off his outer cloak with the help of the servants.

"I stumbled upon this place by chance. Do you like it?" Fourth Master asked.

“I like it. But I’ve never fought crickets before, so I don’t know how to do it.” Lanqin washed her hands with the help of her beautiful maid, and then reached for the pastries on the plate.

"My lord, may I help you wash your hands?" The beautiful maid walked up to the Fourth Prince and took the initiative to say to him.

The Fourth Prince frowned as he looked at the woman, while Lanqin laughed and leaned back on the couch, watching the Fourth Prince's good show: "The woman has taken the initiative to serve you, let's see if you accept this kindness."

"My lord, our pastries are quite good. Please wash your hands and have a taste, and a cup of tea. Chong'er will be here shortly," the maidservant continued.

"Put it down first, I'll do it myself." Fourth Master still didn't like this kind of initiative, and said with a frown.

Seeing that the Fourth Master insisted on not letting her serve him, the maid had no choice but to comply with his wishes and put down the basin for washing hands.

After she left, Lanqin laughed and said, "I didn't expect my master to be so popular that he could have a romantic encounter just by playing cricket fighting?" But that woman just now was really too disrespectful to her, daring to flirt with the Fourth Master right in front of her.

"Yes, your master is a hot commodity. You'd better keep a close eye on him, or plenty of people will be scrambling to have him," Fourth Master joked.

"Yes, I'm quite formidable. Anyone who dares to try and take me away will face me square and square," Lanqin said, seemingly preoccupied.

When Fourth Master saw a servant carrying something that looked like a roster enter, he left Lanqin behind and began talking to the servant.

"Sir, this is our catalog. Please take a look!" the waiter said. The so-called "catalog" in his hand contained information about the insects' origin, size, and other details, so that customers could choose the right ones.

The Fourth Prince had the servant introduce everyone, while he sat on the other side of the couch and began to sip tea, while Lanqin had already eaten three pastries.

Listening to the servant introduce the cricket's name, Lanqin found it to be quite interesting. No wonder people like to fight crickets; it really does sound fascinating.

After the servant read out the names of all the crickets on the list, the Fourth Master chose a cricket named "Xiao You," which looked small and had a quiet voice. Lan Qin, on the other hand, chose a large cricket named "Hu Niu," which was quite big and had red wings. Its chirping was very loud, immediately overshadowing the one the Fourth Master had chosen.

After the enclosure was set up, Lanqin and Fourth Master stood around it and began to watch the cricket battles they had each chosen.

"Gentlemen, shall we begin?" the servant asked.

"Let's begin!" said Fourth Master.

Lanqin watched as the servant placed the large, red-winged tiger she had chosen into the enclosure. As soon as Xiaoyou was placed in the enclosure, the tiger flapped its wings and began to make noise, seemingly quite displeased with the newcomer.

"Gentlemen, they're about to start biting. This lady has chosen a very fierce one. She has excellent taste," the servant praised.

Lanqin smiled and looked at Fourth Master's dog. It was unremarkable in appearance and its voice was not loud. As soon as it entered the room, it seemed to be stunned by Tiger Girl's roar.

"Master, let's have a prize today," Lanqin said smugly.
