At this moment, Nanxun seemed to have heard something again. A hint of resentment flashed in her eyes, and then she said, "I promise you, young master."
The crowd erupted in uproar, with some even whistling.
They thought Nanxun would refuse, but to their surprise, she actually agreed.
On one hand, I really want to see her true face, but on the other hand, I'm worried that she has really chosen Zuan as her lover.
How to describe that mentality? Oh right, I once encountered an ID on a forum that said "Want to date but afraid of being taken advantage of," which perfectly describes their mentality at that time.
"However, I will only show this to you, young master." Nan Xun said softly, then slowly untied the tassels from her face, revealing a pretty face that was both charming and coquettish. Her skin was snow-white and flawless, her nose was delicate and upturned, and her lips were luscious and red. Combined with her charming and beautiful face, she could truly be called a peerless beauty.
Standing next to Zu An, Gao Ying and Pei You suddenly became breathless, their eyes wide open. In fact, they had seen beauties of similar caliber before, such as the Crown Princess, who were in no way inferior to her. However, she had been surrounded by too many halos in the early stages, and the two of them had already filled in too many gaps in their minds. When they saw her, they naturally filled in the gaps even more perfectly, to the point that they thought the woman in front of them was incredibly beautiful, perhaps even the most beautiful they had ever seen in their lives.
They sighed inwardly. It was a pity that she had taken a fancy to Brother Zu. Otherwise, they would have tried every means to marry her, even if it meant using their family's influence.
Thinking of this, the two of them came to their senses a little more. At this moment, they felt as if they had swallowed a lemon, and couldn't help but look at Zuan beside them.
However, they immediately noticed that Zuan's mouth was even wider than theirs, and he still looked like a lecherous man, which made them feel much better.
Brother Zu's willpower is lacking; he becomes like this the moment he sees a beautiful woman.
His own wife, Miss Chu, is clearly a stunning beauty, so why is she like this?
...
While the two were secretly grumbling, Zu An was in turmoil. He finally understood why the woman looked familiar before, because he had seen this face just two days ago.
And it was that kind of close contact!
However, it was in the coffin of the Qi Prince's concubine in the Qi Prince's mansion!
This courtesan looks almost exactly like the concubine of the King of Qi!
The biggest difference was probably that the woman in the coffin was pale, while the woman in front of them was as beautiful as a flower.
No wonder it looked familiar but I couldn't quite place it; after all, who would associate a famous courtesan in the capital with a dead person?
No wonder everyone says that her eyes have a noble air about them, and it's not an act; of course, a concubine of the Prince of Qi would be noble.
In that instant, countless thoughts flashed through Zuan's mind. He couldn't believe that two people who looked so alike could have no connection whatsoever.
Could this woman be the twin sister of the Qi King's concubine?
Or perhaps she is the ghost of the Qi King's concubine?
Thinking of this, even though the surroundings were brightly lit and bustling, Zu An felt a chill run down his spine.
Although he is now a cultivator, he has never seen anything so supernatural.
He had encountered ghosts in the secret realm before, but he had always treated them as monsters and fought them. The person in front of him was, in a sense, an acquaintance, and he could be transported back to his past life to watch a horror movie in an instant.
At this moment, the other men in the room all ran over to this side. Because Zu An was in a quiet corner, and Nan Xun deliberately turned her back to the others to remove the tassels from her face, only Zu An and the other two could see her face clearly. The others were itching to see her and didn't care about their manners anymore. After all, most of them were destined not to be able to get close to her tonight, so it was good to see Nan Xun's true face now.
So one by one they left their seats and ran over here, but Nanxun reacted quickly and almost imperceptibly retied the tassels on her face.
However, Zu'an's reaction puzzled her: "Did my humble appearance frighten you, young master?"
Her voice carried a hint of melancholy; any other man would have melted at the mesmerization and felt guilty, hastily offering explanations or even apologizing.
But Zu'an's hair stood on end. However, having experienced many storms, he quickly calmed himself down and smiled slightly, "Miss is joking. If such a beautiful face is considered plain, then are there any beauties in the world?"
Nanxun smiled faintly: "Young master, you flatter me."
When the others arrived, they didn't see Nanxun's lineup. Instead, they saw her being amused by Zuan, who was making her laugh so hard she seemed to have been showered with dog food. Each of them looked at Zuan with eyes full of jealousy.
However, Zaun had no time to pay attention to the string of anger points he had received; his thoughts were racing.
Could it be that the concubine of the King of Qi actually faked her death?
Who is that woman in the coffin? After all, out of respect for the remains, the face of the corpse was not carefully examined, so it's possible that it was disguised.
But what kind of disguise could be so ingenious? You know, Sang Qian performed an autopsy on her; if her face was disguised, it would definitely have been noticed.
For a moment, Zuan was completely bewildered.
If the concubine of the King of Qi really didn't die, that would be interesting. She was both a princess and a courtesan, so the King of Qi was quite cuckolded.
He suddenly remembered a news story from his past life: a celebrity was arrested for visiting sex workers, and then various information about the girl was exposed online. Everyone was curious about what kind of looks could make that celebrity lose control.
According to various rumors, the girl is indeed very beautiful, but she charges eight thousand a night.
Then another victim revealed that the girl was actually his friend's girlfriend!
It was originally a tragic story, but someone suggested that the friend with the green shirt could be viewed from a different perspective: didn't he earn eight thousand every night before?
Zu An wondered how much silver the Prince of Qi could earn each night, given Nan Xun's current reputation in the capital.
While he was lost in thought, Miss Nanxun had already returned to the stage on the second floor and then played another round of drinking games with a group of people.
However, with Zuan's brilliant poem preceding them, everyone inevitably lost interest. After all, reciting other people's poems at this point not only doesn't show off, but also serves as a foil for Zuan.
Not long after, Nanxun also left under some pretext.
Everyone immediately sat up straight, realizing that the other side had probably already chosen their candidate.
Although my chances are slim, everyone has dreams, right? What if Nanxun goes blind?
