Because Ahri has to wear a veil and can't show her face, everyone knows this when someone invites her to dinner.
Those who invited Ahri to dinner all loved hearing Ahri's voice; it excited them greatly.
To put it simply, these people are voice-controlled; only they know what they're thinking while listening to Ahri speak.
The first time someone invited me to dinner, the man was a scholar with a little money. He blindfolded himself, saying he couldn't be too forward with the lady.
After each meal, there was always a lot left on the table. Junru and Yatou were both people who had been hungry before, and they felt it was all a waste.
Ahri mistakenly thought they also wanted to try it and see if it was delicious, so she ordered a whole table of food to take back.
Junru was very unhappy, saying that she was greedy for food and that Ah Li was wasting money, and that one should have money in hand while in the brothel.
Ahri asked, puzzled, "Then why did you all look at the food on the table when you left?"
Junru said shyly, "You saw it?"
"Um."
"We just felt that there was so much food left untouched on the table, and it was a waste."
"I see."
Ahri seemed to be deep in thought at that moment, and then looked at Jun Linhe, who was sitting there eating and drinking without saying a word or offering any opinions.
Jun Linhe's face slowly turned red. Why was this person looking at him?
Ah Li told Junru and the maid to eat first, then sat down next to Jun Linhe and said, "Linhe, how's your martial arts training going lately?"
"It's acceptable."
Jun Linhe didn't dare to show too much pride, because his master said he was a martial arts prodigy who was a once-in-a-century talent.
"Then let's do this from now on..."
Ahri put her hand on Jun Linhe's shoulder and began to explain her plan.
Jun Linhe only noticed that the man's hand was on his shoulder, and he dared not move.
Finally, Ahri asked Jun Linhe, "Is it alright, Linhe?"
Jun Linhe looked at Ah Li with a blank expression, then nodded somewhat foolishly, "Okay."
Junru looked at Ah Li helplessly and said, "That kid must have been daydreaming just now."
Later, in order to have more fun in life and to avoid wasting food, the four of them started to cooperate.
That being said, after half of the food was distributed...
Ah Li spoke up again, "Master Huang, try this, it tastes good."
The maidservant, expressionless, used chopsticks to pick up food and feed it to Master Huang.
Master Huang hummed with great enjoyment, then ate the food that others were feeding him, saying, "Delicious, the food that Miss Xue Li feeds me is really delicious."
"That's delicious, eat more, I really like these dishes too."
"If you like it, I like it too."
Master Huang was neither very fat nor very thin. It was said that he already had a wife and several concubines.
After they had eaten enough, Ah Li took a sip of water to moisten her throat, then walked behind Master Huang and untied the knot at the back of his head.
As Master Huang's eyes gradually adjusted to the light, he turned to look at Ah Li, who was holding a silk handkerchief in her hand.
Ah Li said to him, "Master Huang, it's getting late, I'll head back now."
Before Master Huang could speak, he burped. He didn't feel it was impolite; instead, he said, "Miss Xue Li, when will you be officially listed?"
At this moment, Junru spoke up, "Miss, we should go back."
Ah Li said to Master Huang, "Farewell."
Master Huang didn't press the matter further, nor did he stop the man from leaving. He was still savoring the soft, seductive whispers that had just reached his ears.
After waiting for a long time, Master Huang took a sip of the wine on the table. He was going to go with the others to talk to the madam about how the fruit would get old and tasteless if left too long.
When they came out of the restaurant, Junru and her maid didn't look too good.
Once they were in the carriage, Ah Li was still in the mood to comfort them, "Don't be upset, or people will think we were bullied in the private room."
Junru held Ah Li's hand, but there were some things she didn't know how to say.
The maid also looked at Ah Li. She had heard other maids say that some guests had strange hobbies and would leave the girls covered in injuries.
Once you encounter that kind of person, there will be no peace and quiet all night, and the girl's crying will last for a long time.
Ah Li held Junru's hand and said, "It's okay. If that day ever comes, we'll deal with whatever comes our way."
When they got back, Jun Linhe had already heated up the food.
Ah Li removed her veil, looked at the food that had changed color, and invited Junru and Ya Tou to sit down and eat together.
However, Junru seemed preoccupied, and Ya Tou was also rather quiet.
Ahri, on the other hand, was holding chopsticks, tasting the flavors every now and then.
Jun Linhe looked at Ah Li with concern, and found that Ah Li's expression was normal and her dress was the same as when she left. He approached Ah Li and asked in a low voice, "Did that person upset you?"
Ah Li raised her hand and pushed Jun Linhe's face away, saying, "Children shouldn't ask about these things. You've been busy for so long, hurry up and eat."
Jun Linhe muttered, "You're not that much older than me."
He's already sixteen, yet he still calls himself a child. She herself isn't that much older than him.
Upon hearing Ah Li's words, Jun Ru looked at Jun Linhe. If this man knew that Ah Li was skilled at playing cards, who knows what he might do.
The building is very lively at night.
Ah Li sat high up, surrounded by curtains, gently stroking her pipa, and a melodious tune drifted out.
Many people below looked in her direction, including many familiar faces. These were people who had invited her out to dinner, taken her to see the lake scenery, given her jewelry, or tipped her money.
Lian Qiao, dressed as a man, looked at Ali sitting high up. She had heard that Ali had not yet been officially registered, but who knew if she harbored resentment towards Jun Linhe and Jun Ru.
