This troublemaker, he's unpleasant to talk to.
"Xiao Yun'er, it's not good for you to yell at your sister like that. There are so many people watching. Why don't we go inside first and talk about it later?"
I rushed over and rescued Gu Changzhou from the burly man's arms, then pulled him in front of Luo Qingyun.
"Let me introduce you. This is Gu Changzhou, the second young master of Prime Minister Gu's family. Ling'er and I went out shopping but forgot to bring any money with us. Ling'er took a fancy to a set of writing implements, which Changzhou paid for. We thought we'd treat him to a meal to thank him."
"I'm short of money, and I remember Xiaoyun owes me a lot of money before, so I came over to mooch a meal."
"Changzhou, Changzhou, you're calling him so affectionately, Luo Qingyi, do you want to die? Hurry up and take your hands off him."
I reluctantly let go of Gu Changzhou's shoulder and obediently shut my mouth.
Having come this far, I've pretty much finished my performance. The stage is now in Luo Qingyun's hands.
"You've taken a fancy to my older sister?"
Luo Qingyun fanned herself, scrutinizing Gu Changzhou as if he were a monkey.
Gu Changzhou forced a smile and was about to nod when Luo Qingyun raised her hand and slapped him hard across the face, leaving Gu Changzhou stunned and bleeding from his nose. The scene was indeed one of massive bleeding.
"You dare to mess with my older sister? Do you think you're living too well and want to experience what it's like to live a normal life?"
"You want to have dinner with my older sister, right? Okay, then pay up."
Gu Changzhou was initially stunned and furious after being beaten, seemingly about to curse, but upon hearing Luo Qingyun's last sentence, he fell silent, unsure of what to do.
"I would also like to have a meal with this young lady. I wonder if one thousand taels of silver would be enough?"
While Gu Changzhou was still hesitating, the man who called himself "this king" approached Luo Qingyun and eagerly spoke up.
Although he wasn't as handsome as Gu Changzhou, he spoke with an air of arrogance, dressed neatly, and his hair and clothes were meticulously styled and very refined. His temperament was somewhat different from others, and he exuded a strong aura of menace, as if he had been on the battlefield.
"Prince Ling, you heard it yourself, Qingyi invited me to dinner. Why are you meddling in this?"
Gu Changzhou finally realized what was happening and stopped the domineering tycoon from speaking.
Then he turned to Luo Qingyun and said, "As long as you pay me, I can have dinner with your sister."
That's natural.
"What if I want to marry her, brother-in-law? Let's make this clear first, it's marriage, you can't hit me again. I want to marry your elder sister as the second young mistress of my Prime Minister's mansion. Name your price, how much?"
"Yes, how much? We have plenty of money, and we'd like to have lunch with your sister and spend the evening together."
Seeing that Luo Qingyun genuinely wanted to sell his beautiful, angelic older sister, the group of lecherous men all voiced their truest thoughts.
Hehe, I'm not just messing around with this face. I'm going to use it to attract romance. When all my suitors are in the air, I'll go and show off to Ji Ruchen and make him furious.
Then let the wicked brother kidnap that Princess Anguo and leave him to live out his days in loneliness.
Hahaha, hahaha, hahahaha...ha...ha
Perhaps my smile was too charming, because those lecherous men were all stunned.
"Gentlemen, I apologize. Today, I am here to invite Xiao Changzhou to dine at Chenghualou Restaurant. I will remember your kindness and will definitely raise a glass with you all if there is an opportunity in the future."
"Ling'er, come and hold your brother Changzhou's hand. Let's go upstairs for dinner."
Seeing that things were getting out of hand, I thought I'd grab this hothead and head upstairs to make a quick getaway.
Little Qingling was very well-behaved; sure enough, she tugged at Gu Changzhou's sleeve and followed me upstairs.
Gu Changzhou felt that happiness had come too suddenly, and he was dizzy, letting Xiao Qingling lead him.
Thanks to the slap Luo Qingyun had given Gu Changzhou earlier, their journey had been relatively smooth.
