"Okay, sure."
The man didn't believe He Yi's words and prepared to go ahead and ask again.
Seeing him about to leave, the woman called out to him from behind.
"Sir, you must be tired from your long journey. Why don't you come in and have a cup of herbal tea?"
The red-light district is never short of beautiful women, which is good; if you know more about it, it'll be easier to find them. So he said...
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Madam."
"It's no trouble at all, please come in."
The wooden door creaked open, and life was lost in an instant.
"It's filthy," He Yi muttered to herself, looking at the blood all over her sleeves.
"Hey! Mom, what are you doing!"
Recently, a spicy soup shop opened on the main street of Pingyang County. The owner was one of the people who fled here. Whenever Huo Xiaolong and his girlfriends ran around wildly in the street, he would call them over and let them go in and drink the soup.

"Mom, don't move. I'll go find Sister Ping'er and the others to help you tidy up. Don't tidy up yourself, it'll just get dirtier the more you tidy up."
Huo Xiaolong skipped over to the brothel, found Ping'er, and whispered something while tugging at her sleeve.
"Sis, could you help me tidy up my place?"
"Okay, I'll go right now."
Ping'er didn't ask what was being packed. She assumed that Huo Xiaolong had caused trouble again and wanted her to clean up his mess, or that He Yi was too tired to do chores by herself, so the little dumpling came to call for help.
The little girl stood up and was about to leave when Huo Xiaolong pulled her back and said...
"Let's invite the other older sisters to come together!"
"..."
Ping'er understood; something had happened at home.
Watching Huo Xiaolong skip away to find Cen's mother, I felt a little relieved. It shouldn't be anything serious; it was under control.
