The man was none other than Bai Chen!
"Mr. Bai, it seems you haven't been here for a long time!" Liu Yuedie said softly.
At this moment, Bai Chen was still in a daze, drinking his wine in silence.
He was thinking that Wan Ruo wasn't around today. He was quite angry about being left at home by her. Since it had been a while since he last went out, he happily came to the brothel.
Before he met Wan Ruo, he was a regular at the House of Pleasure. Whenever he came, which girl in the brothel wouldn't scramble to serve him?
But now, he didn't know what was wrong with himself. He was sitting there drinking alone, as if his body was here but his mind was elsewhere.
Seeing that Bai Chen didn't respond, Yuedie was taken aback for a moment, then continued to ask, "So what tune would you like to hear today, Mr. Bai?"
"Ah! Just play whatever you like!" Bai Chen replied coldly without even raising his eyes.
Seeing that Mr. Bai didn't even give her a proper look, Liu Yuedie felt quite helpless. She could only play the zither on her own.
On the other side, Si Hongxi was so angry with the four women that he immediately called the madam over.
"Now, right away, call Miss Yuedie over for me!" Si Hongxi said angrily.
Seeing that Mr. Si was so angry, the madam said somewhat embarrassedly, "Sir, did these four girls not serve you well? I'll get you some more clever girls. How about that?"
"Didn't you hear what I said? I only want Miss Yuedie. Now, immediately!" Si Hongxi said coldly.
He really changed his face faster than turning a page in a book!
Seeing Mr. Si's tough attitude, he was really hard to deal with!
"Mr. Si, I understand, but Miss Yuedie is currently serving another customer next door. It's hard to offend either side. There's always a first-come, first-served rule, right? As soon as she's done here, I'll send her over immediately. How about that?" the madam explained nicely.
"Hard to offend, huh? I'd like to see who the hell is insisting on Miss Yuedie!" Si Hongxi got up and was about to rush over.
Well! Wasn't he basically talking about himself?
Seeing this, Wan Ruo quickly tried to stop Si Hongxi, but at this moment, Si Hongxi wouldn't listen to anyone's persuasion. He just rushed next door.
Wan Ruo and the others quickly followed, afraid that something bad might happen.
The madam was also afraid of causing trouble, as it would affect business. Along the way, she kept explaining and persuading, but didn't dare to reach out and stop him.
Just then, with a "bang", Si Hongxi kicked open the door of the next private room.
Liu Yuedie was startled. With a "snap", the string of the zither broke!
She quickly got up and looked towards the door in a hurry. The madam beside her quickly protected Yuedie.
Si Hongxi looked into the room. Sure enough, Miss Yuedie was here, and on the other side was the other customer!
But when he saw who it was, he almost dropped his jaw in surprise.
"How is it you?" Si Hongxi asked in surprise.
Bai Chen gave Si Hongxi a cold and disdainful look. Then, when he saw the man behind him, his eyes instantly became sharp!
He recognized at a glance that the man was actually Wan Ruo in men's clothing. It was really like whatever he thought about would come true!
And when Wan Ruo saw that it was Bai Chen in the room, she instinctively wanted to turn around and run away. It was really a case of enemies meeting on a narrow road.
She had just turned around and hadn't even taken a step when she thought, Why should I run? There's no reason! Then she turned around and looked at Bai Chen with confidence.
"Sorry, Mr. Bai. This gentleman insisted on asking for Miss Yuedie. No matter how we tried to persuade him, it didn't work. We're really sorry to have offended you. What do you two think?"
The madam beside them, protecting Miss Yuedie, explained to Bai Chen apologetically.
As for Liu Yuedie, she just pretended to be innocent and delicate. This kind of thing happened quite often, so she was used to it. After all, she was the top courtesan of the House of Pleasure. She was already tired of watching the drama of two men vying for a woman.
But it was the first time she had seen someone dare to snatch someone in front of Bai Chen. She really admired Mr. Si's courage. She was really looking forward to how Mr. Bai would fight for her.
But she didn't know that Bai Chen's mind wasn't on her at all!
Oh? Bai Chen, slightly drunk, gave a charming smile and sized Wan Ruo up and down, making Wan Ruo feel uncomfortable.
He walked up beside Si Hongxi, but his eyes were on Wan Ruo. With a charming smile, he said coldly, "You like Miss Yuedie so much? In that case, I'll let her go to you!"
What? Liu Yuedie thought she had misheard. Men had always fought tooth and nail for her, but he was actually giving her away!
The words were meant for Si Hongxi, but his eyes were fixed on Wan Ruo.
Wan Ruo looked at Bai Chen's charming eyes and shook her head vigorously. Inside, she was shouting, It's not me! I don't want her!
Seeing Wan Ruo's panicked eyes, Bai Chen found it quite interesting. He had just been thinking about her, and here she came on her own!
After saying that, he leaned over to Wan Ruo's ear and whispered, "However, you have to take her place!"
Wan Ruo was instantly at a loss and was so embarrassed that she wanted to dig her toes into the ground.
The people present were all in an uproar. They saw Liu Yuedie staring at the two of them in disbelief.
When did Mr. Bai develop such a hobby? Did he like men?
At this moment, perhaps only Yuedie could tell that the handsome young master was actually the girl that Mr. Bai had bought back before.
Wan Ruo also blushed a little. She widened her eyes and was just about to push him away when Bai Chen picked her up on his shoulder before she could even move.
"What are you doing! Put me down quickly. What on earth are you doing!" Wan Ruo pounded on Bai Chen's back and whispered.
She was afraid that the noise would attract onlookers, but they had already become the focus of the scene.
Si Hongxi frowned tightly, with a black look on his face. Bai Chen was really like a shadow that couldn't be shaken off!
Right in front of everyone, Bai Chen carried Wan Ruo away. An Yao wanted to stop him, but Si Hongxi stopped her.
An Yao was stunned for a moment. Although that man was really handsome just now, he couldn't just snatch someone away in broad daylight!
Suddenly, she had a flash of inspiration. Ah... Wasn't he the person from the Good Peace Workshop!
It was a pity. They had come out to have a good time, but it had been ruined!
"It's all your fault for insisting on asking for Miss Yuedie. It's really a killjoy!" An Yao complained.
Liu Yuedie was the top courtesan of the House of Pleasure! When had she ever been treated with such disdain? At this moment, she was so angry that her face turned ashen.
But no one paid attention to You Guang beside them. He was looking at Bai Chen with a strange look in his eyes.
After Bai Chen carried Wan Ruo out of the House of Pleasure, he put her down.
Wan Ruo was just about to go back in when Bai Chen grabbed her.
"Let go of me. What are you stopping me for?" Wan Ruo glared at him and questioned.
"Have you forgotten that you're a girl? You'll be led astray if you go in there!"
Wan Ruo was quite confused when she heard him say this. Led astray? What could a girl do in there? On the contrary, he, a grown man, was going to a brothel in broad daylight. How could he have the nerve to say that about her?
"Oh? Are you afraid I'll turn bad? Then what about you coming here? Doesn't it mean you like this place? You're really a hypocrite, saying one thing and doing another!" Wan Ruo angrily broke free from his hand and was about to go in.
Although Bai Chen was left speechless by Wan Ruo's retort, seeing that she was determined to go in, he immediately picked her up on his shoulder again.
No matter how much Wan Ruo struggled, it was all in vain.
"You bastard, put me down! ... You pervert!" Before Wan Ruo could finish speaking.
