The next day, Hongshi arrived as expected, bringing many people with him. He anticipated that Wang Sanniang would definitely agree this time, because he had already told her last time that he was connected to the royal family, and Wang Sanniang would not dare to offend the royal family even if she had the greatest courage.
Hongshi's plan was correct. Wang Sanniang had agreed, and Ruan Meiying had also agreed. However, he did not expect that Ruan Meiying was actually from Geshan Village, and that her father had died because of Hongshi. Now, Ruan Meiying hated him to the bone. Moreover, she and her brother Ruan Dafeng had already set a trap, waiting for him to walk into it step by step!
Ruan Meiying agreed to go to the capital with him because she wanted to find something to use against him and bring him to justice.
When Hongshi met Wang Sanniang this time, he went straight to the point and said, "How have you thought it over? Let me tell you, I'll offer a maximum of 40,000 taels for Ruan Meiying. You can agree if you want, or not... Hmph." Hongshi looked at Wang Sanniang and sneered a few times.
"You can't keep being a madam anymore."
Fearing that Hongshi might really harm her, Wang Sanniang hurriedly said, "I agree! I agree! I didn't say I wouldn't agree. It's just that I've watched this child grow up since she was a child, and I've always treated her like my own daughter. I discussed it with Ruan Meiying yesterday, and she has agreed to go to the capital with you. You can go and pick her up in a little while."
Hongshi was overjoyed: "Really! She agreed to come with me! That's wonderful!"
Hongshi couldn't wait to win the beauty's heart. "Take me to see her quickly!"
The madam responded and raised her hand, saying, "Yes! This way, please."
Hongshi walked quickly forward, wanting to reach Ruan Meiying's side as soon as possible. Wang Sanniang, who was following behind him, could only keep up by running. "Master, Master, Master, slow down. This person can't run anymore. Don't be in such a hurry."
Although Hongshi was eager to see Ruan Meiying, he didn't know what to say when he actually saw her, and could only stand there helplessly.
Hongshi Wang Sanniang spoke first: "Meiying! This master has redeemed you from your servitude. From today onwards, you will live a good life with him. Don't forget your mother when you become successful!"
Ruan Meiying feigned shyness and said, "Mom, what are you saying! You're making me feel embarrassed!"
Wang San Niang laughed and said, "Alright! You two chat first, I won't disturb you anymore." After saying that, she walked out of the house and closed the door behind her.
Ruan Meiying suppressed her resentment and smiled at Hongshi, saying, "Please sit down, young master. I will make you some tea right away."
Hongshi sat down, and Ruan Meiying poured him tea, placed the teacup on the table in front of him, and then sat down next to him.
"I thank you for saving me, young master. You have freed me from my suffering. I will serve you with all my might and am willing to be your slave to repay your great kindness."
Hongshi was overjoyed and said, "Miss Ruan, you are too kind. I truly like you. I have been thinking about you ever since I last met you. I will take good care of you after we leave."
Ruan Meiying smiled slightly at Hongshi, which made Hongshi's heart flutter. He wanted to buy Ruan Meiying as soon as possible and take her back to his courtyard to spend some tender time with her.
Hongshi never dreamed that this beautiful courtesan would be the catalyst for the shattering of his dreams. At this moment, he was completely absorbed in the beauty and had no idea that a crisis was about to unfold.
