Because of the woman's voice when she slapped him
Everyone in the brothel was looking this way.
Even the girl in the blue dress in the center of the stage, who had just finished a dance and was waiting for a new song to begin, looked over.
No one noticed,
When the girl in the blue dress looked at Gu Mu, her pupils suddenly contracted, and then her gaze remained fixed on Gu Mu, never leaving him.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone,
People mistakenly thought I was poor.
But he's actually a rich man.
This classic scenario of someone showing off only to be slapped in the face is exactly what's happening now, isn't it?
Gu Mu faced the gazes of the crowd with composure and said calmly, "Okay, I accept your bet."
The woman who had just slapped him in the face gave a disdainful smile: "You probably don't know how expensive Hua Manlou is."
The onlookers, seeing this, also burst into laughter.
The Gu Mu they saw was dressed in the cheapest coarse cloth clothes, even the servants were dressed better than him. His face was dark, and this skin color, which was still unnaturally dark under the night lights, must have been due to the sun and his face being dirty.
Even ordinary people can at least have a clean face when they go out.
Gu Mu's face was dirty, and judging from his appearance, he didn't have much money.
"Brother, don't be stubborn. The girls at Hua Man Lou are all beautiful and charming, and not just anyone can afford their prices."
“Yes, young man, I think you should keep this money and buy yourself a couple more steamed buns. I’m sure the little money in your pocket didn’t come easily.”
"Besides, young man, you're so handsome and look very young. If you're young and vigorous, you can go to those brothels that cater to homosexuals and sell yourself. Maybe they'll fall for your charms, hahaha."
"Hahahahahaha..."
A burst of laughter erupted; they all thought Gu Mu couldn't afford it.
They then displayed their sense of superiority to mock Gu Mu.
And those girls, held in their arms, would say sweetly, "You're so naughty~"
The way they looked at Gu Mu was, well, quite complicated.
Firstly, they felt that Gu Mu had no money and was indeed a penniless man. They always looked down on penniless men and would rack their brains to squeeze every last penny out of a man's pocket.
It's not that they're saying Gu Mu is so handsome; such a handsome young man is rare, and they'd be willing to pay him to have him.
It's...very contradictory...
Suddenly, the girls' eyes lit up with excitement as they looked at Gu Mu with delight.
Because he pulled a money pouch from his waist.
It shook.
Judging from the sound and the size of the money bag, there must be at least a hundred taels of silver inside.
So much silver...
That's enough to support several girls.
As a result, the girls started looking at Gu Mu differently.
They all wanted to be chosen by Gu Mu...
After shaking his money bag, Gu Mu noticed a change in the gazes of those around him.
He then slowly untied the money pouch; it didn't contain silver.
It is gold.
Gold is more valuable than silver. The onlookers thought it was already impressive that Gu Mu could produce so much silver, but they didn't expect it to be all gold.
This is more than the combined wealth of many people present in the brothel.
Many of them scrimped and saved, and only managed to visit a brothel once in a long while.
When have I ever dared to carry so much money on me?
I never expected that a young man who looked like a beggar could produce so much silver.
Gu Mu was satisfied with the reactions of those around him.
The classic "show-off and face-slapping" scene in male-oriented novels.
It has finally appeared.
However... even if he wanted some, he wouldn't be interested in those vulgar women at the Flower Pavilion.
I wonder if those who said the girls in the Flower Pavilion were all beautiful and charming spectators should get their eyes checked.
Of course, Gu Mu didn't know that all the girls at Hua Man Lou were indeed of superior appearance, considered very beautiful among ordinary people.
But he is different.
He transmigrated to become the biggest villain in this world, and soon became the regent.
Every day I'm either surrounded by celestial beauties like Shen Ling or Ma Shishi. Although she's as approachable as the girl next door, her looks are several levels above the girl next door, and she's almost a perfect 10.
At worst,
Like Lu Xiaoyao, although she has a flat chest, her looks are absolutely stunning.
How could he possibly be interested in such an ordinary beauty?
Finally, Gu Mu slowly turned his gaze to the girl in the blue dress on the stage.
Although only her eyes were visible, the girl in the blue dress...
Even from this distance, Gu Mu felt that those eyes were clear and dark, like the most innocent little deer, looking at you expectantly.
Her eyes are so beautiful, which makes one even more curious about her entire face beneath the veil.
However… Gu Mu felt that these eyes were somewhat familiar?
Gu Mu didn't think much of it.
He has met countless people in this life and in his past life, and he has seen countless pictures in his past life.
A pair of eyes looked familiar to him, but he didn't dwell on it too much.
The girl in the blue shirt had a very good temperament. Standing there, she didn't make people feel distant, and although she was dressed very conservatively, every move she made was alluring.
She's a stunning beauty.
Even though he couldn't see her face clearly, Gu Mu made this judgment.
"Madam, of all the girls here, the one on the stage catches my eye. I'll choose him." Gu Mu hadn't planned to reveal his identity during this disguised trip, hence the use of the title "young master."
