As luck would have it, they also bumped into Gu Mu visiting a brothel.
The two of them miraculously escaped the palace together, and then secretly bumped into each other again in a brothel.
What's even more amazing is that the princess noticed Gu Mu but didn't make a sound (otherwise she wouldn't have moved closer to Gu Mu; she must have been trying to confirm), and Gu Mu noticed the princess but didn't make a sound either.
The two maintained this tacit understanding of each other's ignorance...
...Of course, that's not what's giving Gu Mu a headache.
Gu Mu's headache stemmed from the fact that he had just thought he had stepped into the world of male-oriented novels.
But it seems... that's not the case.
The woman who slapped him in the face wasn't actually trying to make him show off and slap himself in the face, but rather to make him willing to take the step of bidding on the blue girl.
After all, if it weren't for the woman who slapped him in the face, Gu Mu might have gone straight back to his residence after watching it, and wouldn't have taken out so much money unnecessarily, since he was never short of women around him.
Then, thinking he had returned to a male-oriented novel, Gu Mu, spurred on by the woman who slapped him in the face, took a picture of Miss Lan.
Then, in front of everyone, Miss Lan said that they were destined to be together and that she would not accept his money.
I initially thought it would be a scene that doubled the embarrassment effect...
But if we interpret it another way, it means... they're having an affair, or they're about to have one.
Otherwise, who would forgo making a lot of money and voluntarily perform their talents for him?
Of course... that's not all that's happened yet.
But if all of this falls into Chen Ling's eyes, it will be different.
From the perspective of female-oriented fiction, it means—
"The man she married never shared a room with her, yet he was willing to go to a brothel and choose a girl whose face was veiled and could not be seen—and she saw all of this."
This plot is definitely going to increase the female lead's hatred level!!!
This isn't some kind of pretentious face-slapping plot at all.
This is clearly a plot from a female-oriented online novel where the protagonist cheats on his wife and gets caught!
Gu Mu almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
In the end, I was careless.
This wave couldn't escape the typical tropes of female-oriented novels.
