"My friend, our young master would like to invite you over for a couple of drinks... The Moon Butterfly Courtesan will personally pour you the wine."
Zhao Haining was a clever man, and he immediately grasped Murong Chong's weakness.
Why did you buy me a drink?
Murong Chong was stunned for a moment. He didn't recognize the handsome young man, especially after the young man saw his own appearance and exaggeratedly spat out the wine in his mouth.
This offended Murong Chong, and he was about to settle the score with the man when the man's servant came to invite him.
"Our young master knows you."
Zhao Haining began to speak.
"Fine."
Murong Chong glanced at his companion beside him and said, "I'm going to see what that kid is up to. I'll be back in a bit."
As he spoke, his gaze was fixed on the Moon Butterfly Flower Queen.
He had been to Baoyue Tower many times, but he could not see Yue Die every time... When he was lucky, Yue Die would dance on the stage in the hall; when he was not lucky, other courtesans would play the zither and sing; when he was unlucky, he could not see any courtesans at all.
Of the ten courtesans at Baoyue Tower, Murong Chong's favorite was the most outstanding one.
When Yue Die came out just now, his gaze seemed to be glued to her.
The graceful Yue Die possessed a slender waist, a beautiful oval face, delicate features, and lively eyes... Every time she danced, she was like a butterfly fluttering in the air, flying into Murong Chong's heart.
Despite visiting Baoyue Tower so many times, he never had the chance to share a drink with Yuedie.
"go."
Jin Hu was happily eating grapes that the girl had peeled and fed to him by hand, completely absorbed in the moment and had no time to pay any attention to him.
Then, Murong Chong got up and went to Xiao Yu's table.
Taking a closer look at this brother-in-law...
He was in his early thirties, nearly 1.9 meters tall, and had a robust physique... This robustness wasn't due to his physical stature, but rather because Murong Chong had a muscular build. Combined with his height and facial features, with thick eyebrows and large eyes, he gave off a very imposing impression.
Actually, Murong Chong had a very good body proportion and was very upright!
It's just that his face is kind of ugly-handsome.
Yes, it's ugly-handsome... His features, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, aren't exactly good-looking, but when combined, they create a unique charm.
Compared to the fairy-like Murong Xian, this difference in appearance between the siblings made Xiao Yu unable to hold back!
It's hard to believe they are siblings.
If you hadn't met Murong Xian, and only looked at Murong Chong's appearance, even if you thought he was quite distinctive, you wouldn't be so upset as to spit out your wine... Well, actually, I was just trying to save face for my brother-in-law. I described him as ugly-handsome because I have high emotional intelligence.
"Brother Murong, my name is Xiao Yu!"
Xiao Yu spoke up.
Then, glancing at the Moon Butterfly Courtesan, she said, "Quickly pour wine for my half-brother!"
"???"
Yue Die didn't understand what Xiao Yu meant at first. A half-brother? ... Although she was puzzled, Yue Die smiled and nodded slightly, then picked up the wine pot and poured wine for Murong Chong.
"Xiao Yu? You're Xiao Yu!!"
Murong Chong's thick eyebrows furrowed deeply, and he slammed his fist on the table, snorting, "No wonder you invited me for drinks. Let me tell you, don't hit me..."
"You've frightened the Moon Butterfly Flower Queen."
Before Murong Chong could finish speaking, Xiao Yu interrupted him.
Upon hearing this, Murong Chong turned his head and saw that Yue Die was holding a full wine cup to feed him wine, but he slammed the table, which startled Yue Die so much that she dropped the wine cup on the ground.
The wine spilled on Murong Chong's leg...
"Young master, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to."
The courtesan Yuedie quickly wiped the wine-soaked parts of Murong Chong's trousers with a handkerchief.
"It's alright, it's alright."
Seeing his long-awaited goddess apologizing to him, Murong Chong quickly said, "I should be the one apologizing. I accidentally frightened Miss Yuedie."
Instantly, most of the anger in my heart subsided.
He originally wanted to yell at Xiao Yu and tell him not to make a move on his sister!
Ever since her younger sister Murong Xian said she wanted to marry Xiao Yu, her father has confined her to the Prime Minister's residence and forbade her to leave. That girl is also stubborn; so many days have passed, and she still refuses to admit her mistake.
Murong Chong saw that his sister seemed to be possessed. He had long wanted to teach Xiao Yu a lesson, but he never expected to run into her here.
"Does Big Brother like Miss Moon Butterfly?"
Xiao Yu didn't give Murong Chong a chance to get angry and asked directly.
Even the way they address each other has changed. Just now it was "Brother Murong," but now it's "Big Brother."
"ah?"
Murong Chong's expression froze, and an embarrassed blush appeared on his ugly-handsome face. He even stammered, "I...I...the Moon Butterfly Flower Queen is so beautiful, naturally many people like her. I...I like watching Miss Moon Butterfly dance."
He's even stuttering when he speaks; he must really like him!
"If you like Yue Die, then things will be much easier..." Xiao Yu winked at Yue Die, meaning, "Take good care of my older brother!"
A conflicted look appeared on Yue Die's pretty oval face. She had been so proactive just now in order to win Xiao Yu's favor, but now Xiao Yu wanted her to please Murong Chong.
If I don't serve Xiao Yu, but instead serve Murong Chong... then do I still have a chance?
Ningxiang felt her chance had come. With Yuedie, her biggest competitor, out of the picture by Xiao Yu, the poem was now hers.
As she thought about it, Ningxiang felt like her bones were melting. She nestled in Xiao Yu's arms and slowly put the peeled, crystal-clear grapes into Xiao Yu's mouth, her voice sweet and coquettish, just about to act spoiled.
At this moment, Xiao Yu was heard saying, "Brother really likes Miss Yue Die. She is a beautiful and graceful lady, a gentleman's ideal."
"A fair maiden is the object of a gentleman's affections."
As Yue Die pondered those words, her eyes suddenly lit up, eager to hear Xiao Yu continue.
But Xiao Yu didn't say anything more.
It seems that Xiao Yu won't act until he sees the benefit; if I don't serve Murong Chong well, I probably won't have a chance to get his poem.
"Since Young Master Murong enjoys my dancing, I will perform a dance for you alone in a little while."
Yue Die was very sensible and professional. She didn't show the slightest disgust because Murong Chong was too ugly-handsome. When she spoke, she was affectionate, her beautiful eyes looked like she was looking at her lover, and her voice was gentle and moving.
No wonder she's the top courtesan, she's so dedicated!
Xiao Yu thought of "King of Comedy," where Stephen Chow taught Liu Piaopiao how to seduce the Dragon Prince.
"well!"
Murong Chong was flattered and had no intention of causing trouble for Xiao Yu anymore.
He looked up at Xiao Yu, forcibly suppressing the excitement in his heart, but his tone was still excited: "We really are brothers from different fathers and mothers. You should be the older brother for this favor!"
It's a pity you were born at the wrong time, otherwise you would definitely call me godfather... Seeing how sensible Murong Chong was, Xiao Yu quickly picked up his wine cup: "Brother, don't joke around. If Xian'er knew that I dared to be your brother, wouldn't that cause chaos?!"
