"This bamboo token is a proof of completion. When your employer sees the token in your hand, they'll know you're on a mission. If you complete the mission, they'll give you the other half of the token. Only when you bring it back can you claim your reward."
Xue Huan took the bamboo plate and looked at it, and found that the task number was engraved on it.
"Okay, go ahead."
"Then you have to help me keep the things safe. When I complete the mission and come back to collect the bounty, I will take the things away." Xue Huan reminded him worriedly.
Wang Yan chuckled and spoke as if she could definitely complete the task. She was truly a newborn calf that was not afraid of a tiger.

"Who are you?! How did you come out of our girl's room?!"
Ah Man looked at the man coming out of the girl's room and asked loudly.
Xue Huan, who was dressed as a man, chuckled, "Ah Man, it's me."
Hearing the familiar voice, Ah Man opened her eyes wide in disbelief. The man in front of her was actually a girl?
"Come, I'll change your appearance too."
Xue Huan pushed Ah Man to sit in front of the dressing table and started to paint for her.
It melted away soon.
Ah Man looked at the unfamiliar face reflected in the mirror and was in disbelief. If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she wouldn't have recognized that it was herself.
Xue Huan threw another piece of men's clothing to her and said, "Put it on. I'll take you somewhere tonight."
Ah Man didn't ask any questions and put it on obediently.
Xue Huan took Ah Man to Qinghuan Pavilion on Zhangtai Street.
As the night fell, Zhangtai Street was brightly lit and crowded with people. In front of or on the upper floors of the brothels on both sides, women dressed in cool clothes were waving perfumed handkerchiefs to flaunt to passers-by.
Xue Huan held a folding fan in her hand, waving it leisurely, watching the scenery on both sides with great interest. She looked very calm, as if she was a regular here.
Ah Man, however, was not used to it. She sneezed several times in a row as she smelled the strong scent of powder in the air. It was obvious that she was a greenhorn.
She was also very cautious about those girls who tried to get close to Xue Huan, and was determined not to allow them to get close to her.
Xue Huan patted her shoulder and said, "Ah Man, don't be nervous. Just treat it as a normal shopping trip. The more resistant you are, the more people will like to approach you."
"Well, aunt, sir, I'm not nervous."
Qinghuan Pavilion is indeed one of the most famous brothels in Fengchi County. The gatehouse is very grand, and the girls soliciting customers in front of the door are much more beautiful than before.
Xue Huan stopped in front of the door and looked at it for a few seconds before walking in.
"Sir, are you alone? I'll take you in."
"Sir, please choose me. I can play the flute and I promise to serve you to the point of ecstasy."
"Sir, what do you think of me? Hmm?" The girl who spoke directly grabbed Xue Huan's hand and placed it on her chest, throwing her a seductive look.
Xue Huan: “…”
She regretted it. If she had known, she would not have made herself up so beautifully. Before she even entered the door, she had already attracted a group of girls to be jealous of her.
She calmly withdrew her hand, glanced at a few people, and said with a proud face: "You vulgar women, I don't care about you. I came here for Miss Shaoyao."
After hearing her say this, the girls tutted and stopped pestering her.
As you enter the lobby, a large picture of pleasure and entertainment appears before your eyes.
The old man came forward to greet her: "Sir, is this your first time here? What kind of girl do you like? We have all kinds of beauties in our building. I guarantee you will find one that suits your taste."
Xue Huan closed the fan in her hand and threw a gold ingot over. When Turtle Gong caught it and looked at it, the smile on his face immediately became several times more sincere.
"I'm here to see Miss Shaoyao. Please lead the way."
The old man pretended to be embarrassed: "Sir, unfortunately, Miss Shaoyao is not feeling well today and cannot see guests. How about I take you to Miss Yulan? Miss Yulan is both beautiful and a great pipa player. You will definitely not be disappointed."
Xue Huan stroked the fan pendant with an indifferent expression and took out a bamboo token from her sleeve. "Give this to Miss Shaoyao. She will come to see me after she sees it."
The old man was stunned by her gold from the beginning. Adding to her good looks and her attire, he couldn't figure out her intentions. He took the bamboo card and said, "Please wait a moment. I'll be right back."
After a while, Turtle Master came back quickly and respectfully led Xue Huan and her servant to the room where Shaoyao lived.
Qin'er, Shaoyao's personal maid, was waiting outside. When she saw Xue Huan, she bowed to her and said, "Sir, please come in."
Shaoyao's room was decorated very exquisitely and luxuriously. When Xue Huan entered, she saw a woman lazily leaning on the soft couch in front of the window. When she turned her head, even though Xue Huan was a woman, she was still stunned by her.
The peonies in the yard are so weird and strange.
The woman in front of me, with her beautiful appearance and charming allure, truly deserves the name "Peony".
She was only wearing a moon-white tube top embroidered with peonies on her upper body, and a pair of translucent thin silk pants on her lower body. She had a loose red gauze dress draped over her outer layer, revealing large areas of her creamy white skin, which was very alluring.
Her figure is so good that any woman would envy her.
Not to mention men.
If there really was a man standing here, his eyes would probably be glued to her.
Although Xue Huan is a woman, women actually prefer girls who are pretty and have good figures. She couldn't help but glance at her again and again, thinking that it would be great if she could grow up like her.
The original owner's foundation was there, and after she traveled through time, she ate well, drank well, and slept well, and never let herself suffer any loss. Therefore, her current appearance is also very good. It can be said that she and the Peony in front of her are two different beauties on the same level.
But, because she is only fourteen years old, not yet fifteen, her figure is far from perfect.
"Qin'er, take this young man out for tea and snacks." Shaoyao played with Xue Huan's bamboo token in her hand and instructed Qin'er.
Qin'er then took Ah Man to the next room to have tea and snacks.
Only Xue Huan and Shaoyao were left in the room.
Shaoyao looked at Xue Huan with interest, "What's your name, little sister?"
Xue Huan was shocked, but she didn't show it on her face. "What is Miss Shaoyao talking about?"
Shaoyao threw the bamboo plaque back into her arms. "Alright, stop pretending with me. I saw through your disguise the moment you came in. Although your face, Adam's apple, and voice are all disguised very well, you overlooked one thing."
"What?"
Shaoyao curled her lips and smiled, "Admit it? I was a little unsure at first, but now I am sure."
Xue Huan: “…”
Shaoyao came over, walked around her, and even got close to smell her. "This faint virgin scent, there's no doubt about it, you are indeed a woman."
Xue Huan was confused. What the hell is virgin fragrance?
