Chapter 396 The Courtesan's Resentment 4



Not long ago, Jun Linhe went out to study, but actually he went to learn martial arts. Jun Ru would also come to see Ah Li when he had time.

When the female teacher noticed that Junru had come over again, she stopped smiling.

Junru didn't notice the change in the female tutor's expression. She called out, "Female tutor, is Ah Li not ready yet?"

"Yes, she's still studying and hasn't come out yet."

Junru, carrying a food box, said, "I figured she was going to start learning this too, so I made her some pear soup to soothe her throat."

"The old ladies here will prepare it."

The female teacher didn't continue reading; she still needed to check if Ah Li's pipa needed repair.

After seeing the female teacher leave, Junru looked at Ah Li, who was learning how to call.

When Ah Li noticed Jun Ru's arrival, her face flushed, her voice trembled, and she felt a pang of shyness.

The old woman held a long strip in her hand and nodded in satisfaction towards Ali. "Not bad."

The madam fanned herself vigorously with a round fan. It seemed she was saving the snow fox for the grand finale; what man could resist that sound?

When the old woman said it was okay, Ali and the other girls blushed and dispersed.

Junru waved to Ali and said, "Ali, come here, I've prepared some pear soup for you."

Upon hearing this, the old woman came over and looked at the pear soup that Junru had prepared. She said, "She has a great voice to keep, so she shouldn't eat anything indiscriminately."

Junru showed the pear soup to the old woman, and the madam looked at Junru with displeasure, saying, "Don't bring things over randomly, we'll prepare it here."

"I see."

Junru also realized that this was indeed not good. Her ability to enter and leave the attic these few times had made her forget the rules of the building.

At this moment, Ah Li walked to Junru's side and said to the old woman and the madam, "Oh dear, my two good sisters, don't be so serious. You're both doing this for my own good, and I'll be careful."

Ali secretly tugged at Junru's sleeve and said to the old woman and the madam, "I like the pear soup that Sister Junru makes. I want to drink it myself."

The madam and the old woman exchanged a glance. The old woman raised her hand and pointed at Ah Li in a daze, "You and your sister Junru should go somewhere far away, don't stay here."

"Thank you, sisters. I'll go away with Sister Junru now."

Ah Li took Junru's arm, and they left together.

Junru looked at Ah Li. Did this person really not know where she was going to use what she learned every day? Was she not afraid at all?

If all the other girls in the building were like Ah Li, they would suffer less physical pain.

Junru and Ali found a pavilion under the tower to sit in. Ali took some pear soup for herself. She didn't ask Junru what she was thinking. Instead, she drank the pear soup and said, "It's a good thing that my sister prepared pear soup. Otherwise, I feel like my voice would be ruined."

Junru touched Ah Li's hair and asked, "Are you getting used to it?"

Ah Li laughed, "Sister, there's nothing I'm not used to. I think it's quite fun."

Junru laughed, thinking that only Ah Li would find it amusing.

"However, you must keep what I just learned a secret, sister. You can't let anyone else know."

"Okay, I'll keep it a secret."

Ah Li, holding the pear soup, said to Junru, "Thank you, sister."

Seeing Ah Li obediently drinking the pear soup, Junru said, "Ah Li, once you've mastered these skills, I want to come and serve you. If anything happens then, I can help you out."

Ah Li is too pure, while she is no longer a virgin, so perhaps she can help Ah Li.

Ah Li put down the pear soup. She understood Junru's meaning and said, "I am happy that you are willing to come to my side, but you still have Linhe."

When Jun Ruyi thought of Jun Linhe, she fell silent. She worried that Linhe's appearance would become more and more outstanding. She just wanted him to stay away from the building and not be targeted by anyone.

Footsteps sounded not far away. It was the female teacher coming over with a pipa. She noticed that Ah Li was sipping pear soup and asked, "Is it sweet?"

Ali, still holding the pear soup, turned to look at the female teacher and said, "Slightly sweet, not very sweet."

"You should still drink some water later."

The female teacher took the pipa and sat down to one side, placing her hands on the pipa and beginning to gently pluck and strum it.

Junru looked at the other girls in the attic; they were still studying there.

Ahri is so free because she is quick to learn and can learn anything in no time. She doesn't look down on their identities at all, and her calls of "sister" are so sweet that they warm people's hearts.

The madam was more lenient with her, and the other teachers who taught Ahri also liked her quite a bit.

After Ah Li finished drinking the pear soup, he said to Jun Ru, "Sister, I'll play the pipa for you."

The female teacher looked at Ah Li, then at Jun Ru, her eyes revealing a deep displeasure.

However, she hid it very well and didn't let anyone know.

"Master, may I play a tune?"

"Yes, I'll listen, and if I'm wrong, I'll remind you."

"Alright, thank you, Master."

Ah Li took the pipa from the female teacher and began to play...

The madam looked down from the attic and saw Junru and the female tutor, as well as Ah Li playing the pipa.

The pipa music coming from Ah Li was so gentle, like a soft whisper, melodious and affectionate. Sometimes it was like a nightingale singing sweetly among the flowers, flowing and beautiful; other times it was like a secluded spring flowing with difficulty on the beach, clear and profound.

As the sound of the spring water grew colder, the strings seemed to freeze, and the sound stopped abruptly. That silence was more profound than any other sound.

Suddenly, the sound of the pipa burst forth again, like a silver bottle suddenly breaking, splashing water everywhere, or like iron cavalry charging, with swords and spears clashing, creating a magnificent and powerful atmosphere.
