There was a big difference between Jinlu Tower and Yihong Villa. As soon as she entered Jinlu Tower, she felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
"Okay, big brother, you can play as you like!" Jin Ronger threw ten taels of silver to the little girl. After the little girl accepted it, she wrote it down in a book, raised her head and said to Jin Ronger with a smile.
“Oh hehehe—you are so sensible!”
Jin Ronger stretched out her hand to pinch her face when the little girl grinned: "Brother, pinch my face for five taels of silver!"
The little girl still had a bright smile, but An Yu could clearly see that the smile on Jin Ronger's face froze instantly...
"Her father-in-law! She even has to pay for making a fool of herself. There was no such rule last time!"
The two of them found a cushioned seat and sat down. Jin Ronger was still mumbling, obviously still depressed. An Yu smiled: "It's only five taels of silver, how can you still not hold it?" Jin Ronger's words stopped for a moment, and An Yu continued, "Have you been here before? Was this place decorated like this before?"
They were on the first floor now. If it weren't for the wide-sleeved and long clothes these people were wearing, she would have thought she was in modern times. Because just like the bar, facing the door is a long bar, with a variety of wine and food on the bar. There are also various tables here, but they are all very comfortable. On the left side of the entrance is the staircase. The second and third floors are covered by a bamboo curtain, making it difficult to see who is sitting among them.
You can actually encounter a very modern style decoration here. How could An Yu not be suspicious
"Decoration?" Jin Ronger looked up doubtfully, then nodded and said, "It's okay if you don't tell me, I almost didn't notice. This place wasn't as beautiful as it is now! I really don't know who decorated it, and It’s comfortable, generous and casual. I really want to live here for the rest of my life!”
An Yu glanced at her with her arms open. Looking thoughtfully at the counter.
"By the way, do you want to eat something? You have to pay extra for the food here, and you have to order it yourself! Hey, it would be great if there was a maid, so you don't have to do it yourself."
Speaking of the maid, An Yu couldn't help but think of Xiao Yuan, whose life or death was uncertain. He sighed in his heart and said, "What do you want?"
"Wow-"
Jin Ronger's eyes were looking behind her, with a look of obsession on her face, and she didn't pay attention to her words. An Yu followed her gaze. Turning his head to look behind him, he saw a woman wearing a translucent chest-length undershirt slowly walking around from the bar and walking towards the stage facing the door. Her appearance. There was a cry of exclamation -
"It's Miss Mengzhuo!"
"Miss Mengzhuo is here!"
"What a beauty-"
It took a while for someone to react and yell. When Mengzhuo heard this, he looked back and smiled at the man who reacted first. Jiyue Scenery was not as pretty as this smile!
"This woman is so beautiful..." An Yu murmured as his arm was grabbed hard by Jin Ronger who was standing beside him.
An Yu frowned in pain and took off her hand. Calmly: "Not as beautiful as the Golden Fairy."
Hearing this, Jin Ronger looked at her in surprise, took her hand, leaned forward, and said strangely: "Can I think that you are admiring her when you say this?"
An Yu couldn't help it anymore, curled her lips and pushed her. Said: "If you understand it this way, I don't have anything to say!"
"Hahaha—" Jin Ronger laughed loudly, and her laughter attracted Mengzhuo's attention. She looked here with a smile, the corners of her beautiful lips slightly raised, revealing a very faint smile. An Yu had never thought that a person's smile could be so beautiful, and he was stunned for a moment.
Mengzhuo's appearance made the originally noisy first floor quiet, and everyone turned their attention to her.
"Mengzhuo learned a new song today. I hope everyone can have a good time at Jinlu Tower tonight!" Her voice was soft and very comfortable to listen to. Many people are vying to please Meng Zhuo. And she just lowered her eyes, and the music next to her slowly flowed out—
"Just for your turning gaze, I have been praying for you all my life. Just for your unintentional promise, I have become your shadow. Why is happiness always clicked until I miss you? From that day on, I look up at your green window every day and call silently. Your name is the lotus seed you lost five hundred years ago..."
When he heard the first sentence, An Yu was stunned. Isn't this the song "Lian's Thoughts" that he sang in Lu Mansion? How could she? With doubts in their minds, people over there clapped one after another. Jin Ronger beside her also looked fascinated, this person! She is obviously a peerless beauty, yet she can still make such a lustful expression while dressing up as a man!
"Can Miss Meng sleep with me tonight?"
Before the applause fell, a powerful voice broke in. I saw a bamboo curtain rolled up on the second floor, and a burly young man with a knife stood in front of the window, with no expression on his tough face. Maybe it was because what he said was too direct, which attracted many people's comments.
"Replying to this guest, I haven't decided on my bed partner yet." Mengzhuo answered very naturally, even with a smile on his face.
"I am willing to spend thousands of dollars to buy the girl Mengzhuo for one night, and also ask the girl to reward her with a favor."
Although the young man said it very politely, his tone was undeniable. He looked down at Mengzhuo, like a high-ranking king patrolling his territory. But the people below didn't even dare to say a word, they were all suppressed by his momentum.
Mengzhuo's departure left many people disappointed. Even though the stage was still singing and dancing, and although the women were no less impressive, it was still not as lively as when Mengzhuo was there just now.
"Such a beautiful woman is so misaligned with me. Alas! It's so pitiful and such a pity!" Jin Ronger let out a long sigh, leaned back on the chair, and looked listlessly at those people in cool clothes. The woman swung her waist and said to An Yu beside her.
"Don't you have some money with you? Just go and snatch her back." An Yu said lightly.
"But I bought her, and there's no need for her!" Jin Ronger covered her face speechlessly and said gloomily.
"..." Is there such a shameless woman? An Yu curled his lips and ignored her complaints.
An Yu was about to pull her up and leave when she suddenly saw a very familiar figure flashing past in the private room diagonally above her, and she was stunned. That was the Yajian where the guard with a knife appeared just now. Could it be that he was the one just now
"What are you looking at?" Jin Ronger found that her body was a little stiff. asked.
"nothing."
An Yu lowered her eyes. She was indeed extremely angry for a moment, but in the blink of an eye she thought that she was not his. What did it have to do with her whether he came back or not? What does it have to do with her if he can't go to the flower house? Slowly exhaling a depressed breath, An Yu calmed down. She wanted to see if Xie Weixing was really here, how would he explain himself when he saw her later!
But... why should he explain to himself
In a private room on the second floor, the girl Mengzhuo who had just performed on the stage was standing in front of a square table. She greeted her patron with a smile on her face.
"Are you Miss Mengzhuo?"
"Exactly." Meng Zhuo smiled faintly, but the sparkle in his eyes was not ignored by the man opposite.
The man sitting behind the square table had his hair tied up casually. There were still one or two strands falling on both sides of the forehead, and the majesty was revealed between the sword eyebrows. The phoenix eyes were long and narrow, like a lazy tiger, looking into the depths of her heart through Mengzhuo's translucent clothes. Even though he didn't seem to see anything... The young guard just now was standing beside him, guarding him with an expressionless face. When she came up, he didn't even look at her.
No one mentioned the extravagant spending just now, Mengzhuo just smiled in response.
"Where did the song Miss Meng sang just now come from?"
Mengzhuo was stunned. I didn't expect that this was what he asked. She thought about it for a moment before slowly answering: "Mengzhuo learned this tune from someone else. He liked the meaning of it, so he learned it by himself. Have you ever heard of it?"
The expression on the man's face was dull. Mengzhuo couldn't see what he was thinking.
At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door.
"It's too late, I'm sorry!"
Before Mengzhuo could see clearly who it was, he heard a burst of laughter coming in. A tall man wearing satin shoes stepped in, shaking a folding fan. The small private room seemed to be filled with nobility as he entered. Mengzhuo looked sharply at the jade ring on his right thumb. The whole body of jasper is worth a lot of money.
"It's never too late. Please take a seat."
The man who came in was not polite. When he sat down, he saw Mengzhuo standing in front of the table and said doubtfully: "This is..."
"Miss Mengzhuo."
"Well, I have long heard that Miss Mengzhuo from Jinlulou is beautiful and can sing well! Please sit down too!"
The noble man naturally spoke with a tone of refusal. Meng Zhuo looked at the lazy man and slowly sat across from them. Mengzhuo's facial features are very delicate and have a stunning feeling. She is also good at dressing herself up, which makes her look even more attractive. An aristocratic man is inferior to a lazy man. He glanced at her from time to time, but Mengzhuo just lowered his eyes slightly and didn't look at anyone.
"It's rare! You actually want a beauty!" The noble man looked at the lazy man with a faint smile.
"Miss Mengzhuo, I specially prepared it for you."
The lazy man just said a very light sentence and choked back all his words.
"Are you ready for me?" The noble man was obviously a little surprised.
Mengzhuo also raised his head and looked at the lazy man with some surprise. He saw that his expression was indifferent and he didn't seem to be joking. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart and lowered his eyes sadly.
"Si Ji, are you kidding me?" the noble man asked, squinting his eyes.
"It's meant for you. Besides, it's just a beauty. If you want it, I can buy it and give it to you."
His tone was just like his person, but he didn't know that this sentence completely changed the fate of a brothel girl. Maybe he knew it earlier, or could make up for it, but there are some things that he can't go back no matter what.
