Su Zhuo's clothes were thrown down from the third floor, and countless people ran to grab them.
"Like smoke."
"Like smoke."
"Like smoke."
Everyone was shouting and the atmosphere was lively and noisy.
Even after Ruyan finished her last dance upstairs, the place was still bustling with people shouting Ruyan's name. Unfortunately, this was a restaurant, not a brothel, and they couldn't spend a fortune to buy Ruyan.
Ruyan blew a kiss to the people downstairs and returned to her room.
The people in the restaurant were still talking excitedly about Ruyan.
"I heard that she used to be a singer in the Grand Tutor's mansion. As everyone knows, the Grand Tutor loves beautiful women, and Ruyan is his favorite."
"So what happened next?"
"It seems that because the Grand Tutor has a new love, Ruyan was sent away."
"So that's how it is. I wonder if Miss Ruyan..." The person who spoke smiled obscenely, and any man could see what he was thinking.
Several people nearby also laughed and said, "Women from the capital have high standards. How could they be interested in us? Why do they come to the restaurant? They want to find a good home for themselves. Didn't you hear that the great man Yang is here too?"
"Mr. Yang is still unmarried. Who knows, he might fall in love with Miss Ruyan and become her concubine. That would be a good ending for her."
As everyone was discussing this, someone looked up and saw Ruyan go to a room on the second floor.
"Isn't that Mr. Yang's room?"
"It looks like what I said..."
The man looked as if he knew it.
"I wonder what they are doing in there?"
"Men, women, what can you do?"
Several people burst into laughter.
Qin Yu listened to what everyone said and sneered in his heart. What a bunch of toads, they dared to think of anything.
He remembered Ruyan as a pretty girl with clear eyes, completely different from what these people described her to be.
Even if it is true, this world is particularly difficult for women. What can Ruyan, a weak woman, do?
Mr. Yang is in his early forties, with a gentle and elegant appearance. He looks like a good man, but Su Zhuo sees through the hypocritical old man's nature at a glance.
It seemed like she cared, but every word and sentence was filled with traps, revealing ill intentions. Ruyan was so beautiful, luckily she had switched with him, otherwise, she would have fallen into the hands of such a wretched man. That would be unacceptable.
"Mr. Yang can't bear to see a weak woman like Miss Ruyan being wronged. If you don't mind, you can stay at the Yang family first..."
When Mr. Yang said this, as if he was afraid that Ruyan would misunderstand, he hurriedly explained: "Miss, don't worry. In fact, it's not for nothing for you to go there. I have adopted many orphans at home. They are all like wild children and are getting more and more unruly. Miss, you are from the capital, and I want you to teach them."
Su Zhuo sneered. Adopting an orphan sounds good, but what kind of family would let a singing girl teach their children? What was Mr. Yang's plan?
"Ruyan" was a little tempted, but she hesitated again and again and still couldn't make a decision, thinking it was not a good idea.
Mr. Yang sighed, "The girl has won the hearts of many people tonight. This restaurant may not be safe. What if someone sets their sights on you..."
He didn't say much more after that.
"Ruyan" still didn't make a decision and just said she would think about it.
Ruyan left not long after.
Mr. Yang also left soon.
The restaurant returned to peace again.
Shen An and others were eating wontons at a stall not far outside. People from Fuxinglou left in twos and threes, and they finally saw Mr. Yang.
Shen An followed with Hu Zi.
The two men quickly figured out the location of the Yang family, which was in a very remote place. After the kind-hearted Yang went in, Shen An and Hu Zi explored the surroundings and found that no one lived in the two neighboring courtyards.
Hu Zi found it strange: "There are only three families in this alley. Doesn't that mean they are all from the Yang family?"
If there is something shameful going on here, no one will know.
Shen An said, "Wait here, I'll go in and take a look."
Hu Zi frowned: "No, it's too dangerous."
Danger?
Shen An patted his shoulder: "It's okay."
That's what he used to do.
This small fence is a piece of cake.
