Like a small beast that had been bullied for a long time and suddenly saw its enemy, Yi Ran immediately got riled up.
The madam in the distance noticed something was wrong and quickly trotted over. With a fierce look on her face, she glared at the girl and started swearing recklessly, "Who let her out! Where's Xiao Qi!"
At her roar, a young maid in the distance hurriedly walked over. With a sob in her voice, she said, "Madam, I really watched Yi Ran closely. I don't know how she still managed to run out."
Hearing this, the madam angrily shouted again, "Then what are you still standing here for? Hurry up and take this girl away. Don't let her sully our guests' eyes!"
After she finished speaking, Tang Youyou gently pushed the madam aside and quietly took out a heavy silver ingot from her pocket.
She placed the ingot in the madam's hand and saw the anger on her face turn into excitement.
The madam smiled and said, "Sir, what are you doing? I was just disciplining this disobedient girl. She was sent here a few days ago, but her temper is too fiery, so I had to lock her up."
After hearing her explanation, Tang Youyou finally understood. After some careful thought and deduction, she figured out why there were so many women in this brothel.
If they had a choice, who would willingly fall into such a life? It was nothing but forcing good - natured people into prostitution.
Tang Youyou deliberately showed a mischievous smile and said in a kind tone, "Madam, you know, I just like girls with such a fiery temper."
After she said this, the madam finally smiled knowingly and instantly understood Tang Youyou's special "fetish".
She said, "Since the sir has already spoken, I'll give this girl to you."
Hearing this, Tang Youyou slightly raised her long and narrow eyes and nodded in satisfaction. "In that case, I'll have to trouble you, madam."
Just as their conversation ended, they saw the madam looking strangely at the people who suddenly rushed in through the door. These people carried swords on their backs and seemed to be here to cause trouble.
Sensing something was wrong, Tang Youyou, together with Yue Fusheng, quietly led Yi Ran out of the brothel.
After the three of them walked out of the brothel, Tang Youyou looked at Yi Ran, who was restless behind her. She whispered, "Miss, if you want to leave, do it now. Don't wait until there are more people around and you won't be able to get away."
At the same time, the people in the distance quickly stepped out of the brothel and began to search everywhere for the next round.
Yi Ran, who was beside Tang Youyou, also noticed that something was wrong. She was a bit surprised but hid the doubt in her eyes. Cautiously, she asked, "Sir saved me not because of some special fetish?"
Hearing this, Tang Youyou couldn't help laughing. "I was just saying a few words casually. You actually believed me? I just saw you being bullied there alone and thought I should take you away."
"Since you're out now, you're a free person. You can go wherever you want."
Hearing what she said, Yi Ran, who had been thinking of various ways to resist, was instantly stunned. She couldn't believe that there could be such a gentleman. In this chaotic world, she didn't expect others to save her from the fire and water, but only hoped to protect herself.
However, seeing such an outstanding man like Tang Youyou today, she couldn't help but feel confused.
"You spent so much money. Was it just for fun?"
Her words really hit the nail on the head for Tang Youyou. She just liked to help those in need when she saw injustice.
"Yeah, I just spent the money for fun. Is that not okay?"
Instantly, Yi Ran was left speechless by her words. But the next moment, the guards who had been looking for someone in the distance all looked at Tang Youyou and Yi Ran.
Yue Fusheng carefully said, "Big... young master, are you sure these people aren't here for you?"
Hearing this, Tang Youyou smiled slightly and said, "Is this the first day you've known me? These people must have been sent by Rong Xun to cause trouble. He must be trying to scare us, so you don't have to worry about it."
However, the people in front of them had already taken out their long swords from their backs. Could it be that this time Rong Xun was serious?
She had only been out for one day, and things had already escalated to this point?
A moment later, Yue Fusheng said again, "But, sir, look. Aren't these people looking at us?"
Hearing this, Tang Youyou just happened to meet their gazes.
When the people saw Tang Youyou turn her head, they quickly came in front of her. "You! Stop!"
The guards behind the three of them slowly walked over when they saw them stop.
The leading guard said, "All of you, turn your faces around."
Tang Youyou turned her head and saw that this person was holding a wanted poster and comparing her face with the one on the poster. And on the wanted poster, there was a line of words written clearly.
[Yue Fusheng. Kill on sight after discovery.]
These words made Tang Youyou's heart skip a beat. She suddenly realized that Rong Xun was really serious this time!
Seeing that these people were about to look at Yue Fusheng beside her, Tang Youyou immediately became vigilant. She coughed softly and pretended to be weak. "Oh, General, I'm suffering from tuberculosis. Please stay away from me."
Hearing what Tang Youyou said, the soldiers immediately stepped back. They showed a look of disgust on their faces and wished they could hide far away the next moment.
"Then tell that person to turn his head and let us take a look."
Tang Youyou then slowly turned her head to look at Yue Fusheng beside her and whispered, "Turn your head later and make a funny face. You must make a funny face!"
After she finished speaking, Yue Fusheng immediately turned his head. Only to see a face with distorted features slowly getting closer in front of the soldiers.
Such a strange expression really startled these people. The leading soldier angrily shouted, "What's wrong with you! Why do you have such an expression!"
Tang Youyou put on a pitiful look and said helplessly, "It's because my younger brother was born disabled, which makes his facial features not regular. That's why he scared the generals. I'm really sorry!"
Hearing this, the soldiers were still a bit skeptical. They looked at Tang Youyou thoughtfully and then turned to look at Yue Fusheng. He waved his hand and coldly said, "If that's the case, then watch your younger brother carefully. Don't let him come out and scare people randomly!"
Seeing that this person had been deceived, Tang Youyou immediately softened up, squeezed out an obsequious smile, and said in a flattering tone, "In that case, we'll leave first. Thank you, General, for your understanding."
But seeing Tang Youyou's obsequious smile, he was still a bit worried. He turned his head and instructed, "Are you sure you're not the people on the poster?"
Tang Youyou immediately explained, "No, no. We're not. You can rest assured, General. We're all good citizens."
Hearing Tang Youyou's words, although the soldier didn't fully understand, he was finally a bit more relieved.
"You all should be careful and don't cause any trouble!"
