The voice spoke slowly to itself for a long time, and only stopped after carefully evaluating Gu Qingze from all aspects.
Gu Qingze: “….”
Although Gu Qingze was very curious about why the other party could see him so clearly even though they were also separated by a curtain, as if it were a "one-way mirror".
However, he did not spend too much time on this insignificant matter, as he knew that there were more important things that needed to be dealt with at the moment.
Gu Qingze opened his mouth slightly, considered for a while, and then asked the other party carefully.
"are you alone?"
"Ah?" The other party was stunned at first, and then after he reacted, he laughed softly as clear as a silver bell.
"Why do you ask?"
"Just...personal feeling?"
Gu Qingze felt puzzled when he heard her laughter, but he still answered seriously.
"Hey, little sister, don't try to impose your ideas on other monsters."
"Are you one of those people who... gets so moved by your own fantasies that you think you're helping other monsters, but you're actually just being self-indulgent?"
There was a hint of mockery in the other person's voice, mixed with an indescribable sense of inquiry.
Gu Qingze lowered his eyes and said no more.
He had originally hoped to obtain information in a gentler way and did not want to cause the chief courtesan to suffer too much pain.
But since the attempt has been fruitless and the chief courtesan obviously doesn't appreciate it, there is really no need for him to waste any more words.
So, when he raised his eyes again, his gaze instantly became extremely firm, and he quickly recited the secret code provided by Ling Xiao that was "full of the second-year high index".
"The chains of oblivion are broken today, dormant memories, return quickly!"
Unexpectedly, after reading it, the scene that Gu Qingze had expected did not appear.
“Puff.”
When the other party heard this secret code, he couldn't help laughing out loud without any scruples.
Gu Qingze frowned slightly when he heard the other party's laughter. If he still didn't notice anything wrong at this point, then he would really be a stupid idiot.
Just at this moment, a gentle breeze inexplicably blew into the closed room, quietly lifting the curtains separating them.
It was at this moment that Gu Qingze finally saw the other person's face clearly.
The scene before him made Gu Qingze’s eyes widen instantly, and he looked at the monster opposite him in disbelief.
The person opposite him was actually a man, not the woman he had imagined!
The man had long white hair and an extremely handsome face. His delicate features looked as if they were carefully carved, and there was a faint, ambiguous smile on the corner of his mouth.
Not only that, when Gu Qingze looked at that face, he always felt extremely familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere before.
"Why, are you disappointed to see it's me?"
There was a hint of nonchalant teasing in his voice.
Gu Qingze came back to his senses and frowned even more tightly. He suddenly realized that he might have fallen into a carefully designed trap.
After hearing this, he did not respond to the other party's words, and a trace of hard-to-conceal vigilance flashed in his eyes.
You must not panic at this time, in case the other party does not know much and is just trying to test you deliberately.
If this is the case, panic at this moment will only put him in an unfavorable predicament.
He also remembered who the monster in front of him was.
It was Yi Chen, the owner of the brothel, whom he met when he disguised himself as a strange woman and asked his younger brother Jinnian to introduce him to the brothel.
I originally thought it was just a chance encounter and we would never meet again, but I never thought...
So that's how it is... Then the madam's inexplicable change in attitude towards him, those inexplicable pauses when speaking, and those inexplicable words she said to him all make sense...
Because the madam was not facing the chief courtesan, who in her eyes was "a slightly more noble object", but her boss, she appeared to be extremely respectful.
Yi Chen did not show much concern in the face of his cold attitude. He smiled lightly, completely peeled off the curtain separating them, stood up and walked straight towards Gu Qingze without hesitation.
Gu Qingze subconsciously wanted to retreat, but then he remembered their efforts over the past few days, so he decided to stay put and wait and see. If things really didn't work out, he still had the Dream Pearl and could hide in the dream space at any time.
Yi Chen looked at Gu Qingze who was looking straight at him, and the smile on his face became more and more intense. He lifted Gu Qingze's chin with his slender fingers, looked at the face he had transformed with the Beauty Pill, and spoke softly.
"What? You're not going to continue saying that ridiculous secret code of yours? Gu-Qing-Ze-? Are you shy?"
Gu Qingze's heart sank suddenly. Even his real name was known... It seemed that Yi Chen knew much more than he expected.
It was a foregone conclusion that he had been tricked, but he immediately calmed down. This was definitely not the time to be angry. He should first find out Yi Chen's true intentions and then make other plans.
Thinking of this, he looked at Yi Chen, and instead of showing the panic of being exposed, he asked calmly.
"Since Master Yilou even knows this, it seems he deliberately lured me here. What's his purpose?"
Yi Chen looked at him who remained calm in such a situation, and his eyes unconsciously showed a bit of admiration. He took a step back, crossed his arms, raised the corners of his mouth, and said with a smile.
"Being so fierce is not cute, but no matter what a beauty does, it is beautiful, so I can indulge her willfulness a little."
