"My cousin said he did have sex with Su Muxi once, but the experience was just so-so. However, Su Muxi gave him ten taels of silver afterwards."
"Really? She looks so serious, but she's actually quite the flirt!"
…
Pei Yuan, still struggling with how to start the conversation, entered the Shanci Hall and tried to conceal himself by walking into a corner.
Unexpectedly, I heard such foul language.
He took a few deep breaths, looked at the lewd expressions on the faces of the two men, and without thinking too much, clenched his fists and punched one of them in the nose.
Although Pei Yuan looked tall, he wasn't as strong as the men who worked on the streets all day.
With two against one, Pei Yuan's face quickly became bruised.

After the crowd dispersed, most of the people left, making the Shanci Hall instantly feel spacious.
Su Muxi looked at Pei Yuan, whose face was bruised and swollen, and asked in confusion, "Did you need something from me?"
She knew that Pei Yuan wouldn't attack someone without a reason, and after a moment's thought, she figured out the reason.
She had heard the rumors outside and knew that those people had come to Shanci Hall out of curiosity to see her. She had intended to ignore them and wait for the rumors to dissipate over time.
She never expected Pei Yuan to stand up for her, and in such a reckless way at that.
