Then this person extended an invitation. This person was none other than Liu Yuedie, the top courtesan of the House of Blossoms!
"Feeling down? How about coming to my place for a couple of drinks?" Liu Yuedie asked with a smile.
For some reason, her smile was simply irresistible, making it hard for anyone to decline after seeing it!
"I'd better not in this state!"
Don't only men usually go to the House of Blossoms? I'm dressed like this. I'd better not, Wan Ruo declined politely.
Liu Yuedie seemed to understand Wan Ruo's concerns. Smiling, she said, "Don't worry. Who dares to gossip about the guests I invite?"
With that, she grabbed Wan Ruo's hand and led her all the way to the House of Blossoms!
As soon as Liu Yuedie pulled Wan Ruo into the House of Blossoms, this pair of eye - catching women instantly caught everyone's attention.
A drunkard staggered over from somewhere. He sized Wan Ruo up and down and said in a teasing tone, "Hey, this girl is quite something. New here? Keep me company for a drink!"
At this moment, Liu Yuedie shielded Wan Ruo behind her. She snatched the young master's wine cup and said coquettishly, "Oh, isn't this Young Master Li? It's really been a long time. Here, I'll feed you this cup! Come..."
Hearing the top courtesan say so, how could he refuse the beauty's wine? Then the drunkard happily lifted his chin.
She held the cup above his mouth and slowly poured the wine into it. Since he was already drunk, after this cup of fine wine went down, he was even more like a man having a drunken fit. He grabbed Yuedie's arm and wouldn't let go.
She had thought one more cup would knock him out, but unexpectedly...
Since that's the case, don't blame me for being rude. Truly, lust is like a knife above one's head. With a smile on her face, she supported the drunkard with both hands and said, "Young Master Li, you've had too much! Oh, why did you just collapse? Get up and have some more!"
But at this moment, she just gently pressed on the back of his neck, and the drunkard immediately stopped moving.
To outsiders, it seemed that this person was just dead drunk. No one noticed anything abnormal, not even Wan Ruo standing beside her. She really thought he was just drunk!
Liu Yuedie then gave a look to the servants of the House of Blossoms. Two big men stepped forward and dragged him away.
At this time, Liu Yuedie was still smiling and saying, "Young Master Li, come again next time!"
As soon as he was dragged out of the door, he was thrown into an inconspicuous alley by the two big men. Passers - by smelled the strong stench of alcohol and thought he was just drunk. They all avoided him in disgust.
At this time, Liu Yuedie pulled Wan Ruo and comforted her, "You weren't scared, were you?"
Wan Ruo just shook her head.
Liu Yuedie smiled seeing Wan Ruo's obedient look. She grabbed her hand and walked into a private room.
As soon as the two sat down, a servant came in with wine and side dishes!
Liu Yuedie picked up the wine jug and filled Wan Ruo's cup first. As she poured, she said, "I feel an instant connection with you, sister. It's fate that we met today. Let's get drunk tonight!" Liu Yuedie raised her cup and drank it first as a show of courtesy.
Wan Ruo picked up her cup. Looking at the wine in it, she frowned slightly. This was her first time drinking, and she was a bit nervous.
Thinking about the troubles in her mind, she decided to enjoy the moment. Drink!
She downed the wine in one gulp. "It's so spicy..." Wan Ruo's face instantly turned bright red.
"What kind of wine is this? Why is it so spicy?" Wan Ruo stuck out her tongue and kept fanning herself with her hand.
So spicy, so spicy. It burns my throat...
Seeing Wan Ruo's comical appearance, Liu Yuedie beside her covered her mouth and burst out laughing.
"This is sorghum liquor! Judging from your reaction, this must be your first time drinking. Ruo Ruo looks so cute!" Liu Yuedie said with a smile, looking at her.
Then she filled Wan Ruo's cup again. "Drink slowly. Come..."
Liu Yuedie raised her cup to propose a toast. Seeing this, Wan Ruo also raised her cup.
After the two clinked their cups, Wan Ruo didn't hesitate. She downed the wine with all her pent - up sorrow.
Seeing this, Liu Yuedie probed, "Sister, if you have any unhappy things, you might as well tell me. Speaking it out will make you feel better!"
Wan Ruo just shook her head helplessly. She kept pouring wine, drinking, and pouring...
After a few cups, Wan Ruo was already a bit tipsy. Her blushing face looked extremely cute.
After a while, she began to choke and talk to herself, "I feel like I'm the most pitiful person in the world. There really isn't anyone more pitiful than me..."
"I, I always thought the person I like... he liked me too. I was so happy! I was really so happy! But later I found out that's not the case at all. He seemed to like me, but it wasn't me, not really me..." As she spoke, Wan Ruo's cries grew louder...
Liu Yuedie beside her was completely confused. She really had too much to drink and was talking nonsense. She shook her head helplessly...
"And... I've been an orphan since I was a child. My mother died when she gave birth to me. I've never seen her! And I've never seen my father either... Never seen him... Hey! You say it's a coincidence. I actually found my biological father these two days! Hehe... But after he saw me once, he died..."
Wan Ruo said while smiling bitterly. "You tell me, why am I so unlucky? Am I some kind of unlucky star?"
"Why am I so unlucky! I'm such a loser!" Wan Ruo cried while self - deprecating.
After hearing Wan Ruo's words, Liu Yuedie beside her couldn't help but feel pity.
Moreover, she saw her own shadow in Wan Ruo. Wasn't she also a poor soul?
Liu Yuedie was also an orphan since childhood. The person she liked only regarded her as a plaything. She had endured so much suffering in the House of Blossoms to reach where she was today. Who had ever really cared about her?
Thinking of this, Liu Yuedie picked up the wine jug and drank it all in one go. Tears couldn't help but slide down from the corners of her eyes.
Tears? Shouldn't this thing have disappeared long ago?
Just then, the door of the private room was kicked open from the outside.
Liu Yuedie looked up and saw that the person was actually Bai Chen!
Bai Chen stood at the door. Seeing Wan Ruo lying motionless on the ground, he thought she had been killed!
"What did you do to her?" Bai Chen looked at Liu Yuedie coldly and questioned.
It seems I'm the most miserable one. At least you have someone who cares about you!
"She just had too much to drink. Isn't your reaction a bit over the top, Young Master Bai!" Liu Yuedie said softly.
Bai Chen picked up Wan Ruo in his arms. Sure enough, she smelled of alcohol, and her face was slightly red.
He frowned slightly, got up, and was about to take her away!
"Don't let her down, Young Master Bai..." Liu Yuedie got up and said.
Liu Yuedie of course knew that the person Wan Ruo liked was Bai Chen. Empathizing with her, she also hoped that the person she liked wouldn't let her down. But...
Bai Chen stopped in his tracks. He gave her a cold look and left without saying a word!
On the way back, Wan Ruo was like a drunk kitten, snuggling in Bai Chen's arms. She giggled one moment and cried the next. Her emotions were erratic...
Bai Chen frowned tightly. What on earth was in this little head?
After returning to the Shanan Fang, just as Bai Chen was about to put Wan Ruo on the couch, she grabbed his sleeve and wouldn't let go no matter how he struggled.
