Chapter 10, one sees a person of unparalleled beauty.
She wanted to step back, but suddenly found her whole body stiffened, leaving her only able to maintain a grotesque posture with her hands extended forward, bending at the waist and knees, frozen in front of the bed
Hong Xiang has an injury on her face and cannot receive clients in the short term, so she puts on a veil hat and goes out to see a doctor
The beautiful national master is approaching, and it is uncertain when she will be found. It is better to prepare early.
"Did you take all the money out of his pocket?" the woman asked before entering.
When the other party asked a question, there were guards stationed at both ends of the alley. She stole a glance at those individuals and felt a chilling sense of murderous intent.
Just a silhouette can captivate one's gaze.
He walked slowly through the market, with crowds of people approaching him from all directions. Upon seeing him, people could not help but scrutinize him, yet they dared not come close. Although they hesitated to approach, they were unable to resist the urge to steal another glance. Constant exclamations of surprise erupted, as some, while turning back to look, bumped into others or collided with trees, causing a shower of pale pink peach blossoms to fall, cascading down like rain from the sky
Jing Hengbo observed his actions and suddenly understood that this fellow was apparently displeased with her strong scent, pushing her away and then opening the window to disperse the fragrance
The person sat cross-legged on the bed, their posture dignified, a corner of their snow-white garment cascading down like flowing moonlight. Jing Hengbo suddenly felt her heart race, as if she were witnessing an emperor seated high upon his throne, poised to question her with a cold gaze
Alas... there is not enough time... the effort is insufficient... the physique is lacking... such a beautiful face is wasted, like a silver-plated wax gun head
It seems as if she is about to kneel before the person on the bed, pleading for mercy
The aura of this man
In Hong Xiang's room, there were no lights, and someone could be faintly seen on the bed. The fragrance in the room wafted about, yet it was not the rich scent of the usual harmonious fragrance that Hong Xiang favored, but rather an exceptionally elegant aroma
After three rounds of drinking with the weak and scrawny Young Master Wang, Jing Hengbo successfully got him drunk as he wished, feeling up his body for gold and silver, half of which he stuffed into his secret stash box, and the other half placed on the table
The market was bustling during the day, with a row of rouge stalls and clothing stores in the busy area of Yushui Lane, which had always attracted women. Hong Xiang strolled through, observing the elegant attire and the flurry of beautiful faces, as the crowd flowed like water. Suddenly, she felt something was a bit strange.
The atmosphere of the market seemed somewhat off. Hong Xiang pondered for a moment before realizing that it had been quite noisy just a while ago, but now the sounds were gradually diminishing. The surging voices were replaced by a series of hushed whispers, like a rushing tide suddenly becoming gentle before a soft and clear beach, continuously swirling with joy.
Hong Xiang recalled the other party's admonition, shivering slightly and wrapping her arms tightly around herself
Pretentious
At this moment, she realized that the bed was completely white, and the red fragrant peach-colored sheets and mattress were all rolled up and thrown on the floor. This fellow had not slept on the red fragrant sheets at all; he had borrowed someone else's bed and even brought his own mattress.
After a while, a figure suddenly appeared in the dark corridor
As night fell, a splendid carriage brought the esteemed guest, Lord Yao, who was warmly welcomed by the madam with a beaming smile into the loft of Jing Hengbo
The subsequent events became even more peculiar; the man in white took her to a secluded place, asked her only three questions in total, then instructed her on a matter before allowing her to return
The events that just occurred swirled in her mind like a dream
This is a special design of Feng Lai Qi, present in every young lady's room, specifically intended to deal with situations where a fierce wife comes knocking. When that tigress arrives, the guests are quickly ushered through a hidden door to hide. With this clever tactic of having multiple escape routes, Feng Lai Qi has increased its business by thirty percent.
This person's every action since their appearance has been conveying a single emotion
Suddenly, she blew out the candle flame, swayed her body, and had already appeared in front of the red incense door
The silver-red gauze window was beautifully tinted by the soft yellow candlelight, reflecting the undulating figure of a woman and the rotund belly of a man. Jing Hengbo's peals of laughter echoed clearly in the bustling and vibrant atmosphere of the Feng Lai Qi, crisp and bright, filling the entire building with the splendor and audacity of her youth. Men in every fragrant chamber, both upstairs and downstairs, could not help but pause their actions, straining their ears to listen enviously.
Hong Xiang slowly loosened her palm, which was covered in sweat, revealing a glimmering red gemstone in the center of her hand
As the sound from www.hetushu.com faded, she suddenly felt a bright flash before her eyes, as if a white shadow had darted through like a bolt of lightning, bringing with it a refreshing and invigorating breeze. Immediately, she felt as if her entire body had become immobile.
Jing Hengbo placed the delicate items in the drawer of the dressing table, making them easy to access when needed. While tidying up the jewelry on the dressing table, she deliberately applied oil to the edges of the brass mirror stand.
It was merely a careless murmur, yet it unexpectedly drew the white-clad figure, who had already left the market, to suddenly appear before her
... ...
The Way
She took a bite of the fried rice candy with a crunch, while the man on the bed remained oblivious. Annoyed, she raised her head and threw a sock at him.
The figure in white appeared beside her like a ghost, and in the next moment, they had crossed the market together, yet no one in the market seemed to notice.
That person was also holding another person, and from the flowing skirt, it appeared to be a woman
Jing Hengbo did not have time to feel angry, because the person in bed had sat up
The person on the bed turned over
When dawn was approaching, she finished the tasks in her room, sent the substitute courtesan back, and dragged the completely incapacitated Master Yao out the door. She changed the bedsheets and continued to sleep soundly, feeling quite satisfied.
She was very satisfied, but Hong Xiang was quite annoyed. Last night, the guest was frightened, and she had to trouble the doctor for half the night. The guest's wife heard the news and even slapped her.
To behold a person of unparalleled beauty, as petals dance in the rain, stirring half the city
Jing Hengbo sniffed and found it pleasant, but did not think much of it. Gege laughed and pounced onto the bed, reaching out to embrace Hongxiang. "Xiang, dear, Xiang girl, Xiang sister, yesterday I ruined your good fortune, today I will take you to slaughter a fat sheep..."
The man was startled and raised his head to ask, "Who?" He vaguely saw a dark shadow in front of the bed, but it disappeared with another blink. He rubbed his eyes, yet there was still no one there. On the floor lay a single sock and a half-eaten piece of fried rice candy.
A person's fingers on the bed lifted slightly, and the incense block burning dimly in the red clay incense burner on the table glowed a little brighter, releasing a delicate and elegant fragrance.
Hong Xiang trembled all over as she walked towards Feng Laiqi, her complexion pale and ashen
The figure glanced left and right, sighed, and murmured: "I ran the wrong way again..."
It is once again the time when the lights are just coming on.
Hong Xiang was so stunned that she forgot to breathe, thinking of the elegant young gentlemen from the Phoenix Nest, who were not lacking in noble lineage. Yet, no matter who it was, none could possess such charm; even a mere silhouette was enough to captivate all.
At a distance of at least several dozen zhang, can this person still hear her casual mutterings? Is he a human or a ghost
That was a figure, tall and graceful, dressed in a pure white garment without any dark patterns or decorations, yet it shimmered with a strange pale silver luster under the sunlight. A section of black hair fell beneath the hood, glistening even more.
She suddenly held her breath
It is often unused, and the mechanism feels a bit stiff; it needs some lubrication. She certainly does not wish for any mishaps to occur at the critical moment
Her wolf's claw suddenly came to a halt
As if in a dream, the bustling crowd becomes static, around me are garments of snow-white resembling light clouds, and a cold fragrance lingers like the essence of wisdom
He set her in such a lewd position, and the person on the bed seemed a bit disdainful, slowly extending a finger and lightly touching her heart.
She gazed longingly at the figure receding further and further from the market, until it gradually disappeared from view. At this moment, the market seemed to awaken from a dream; people found themselves again, each attending to their own business. Hongxiang let out a long sigh as if in a dream, unable to help but murmur: "With such charm, if it were to catch Da Bo's eye, he would surely rush over immediately, or perhaps even break through the wall at midnight to abduct him directly..."
The girls' gasps were quite evident, and there were faint, low screams.
If someone were present, they would be startled, as this person appears out of nowhere, as if emerging from the floor itself
Jing Hengbo is hosting the son of the Wang Shoubei family from the northern part of the city tonight
Jing Hengbo took a short nap and, upon waking, grabbed a piece of fried rice candy. She reminisced about a certain handsome young man she had seen in the lobby this afternoon, thinking that he must have entered Hongxiang's room. Thus, she stealthily made her way to the door of Hongxiang's room.
After the doctor left, she looked at the fine weather and felt inclined to take a stroll. Women in the brothel sleep during the day and work at night, rarely having the opportunity to go out for leisure.
The person sat up, waved their sleeves, and suddenly the window in the back wall opened, allowing a gust of fresh wind to sweep in
Jing Hengbo has long since lost interest and has moved to another place to spy
The laughter soon ceased, and with a sudden puff, the lights were extinguished. The men in the corner shook their heads, murmuring with envy and resentment, "Old Yao is quite fortunate..." as they continued to embrace their own women in pursuit of pleasure
The top floor attic fell silent, with not a single person present
Rest assured, I guarantee that he won't be able to afford even a pair of underwear when he goes out. Jing Hengbo snapped his fingers and vanished in an instant
In the darkness, one cannot see the face, only a pair of eyes that shine like stars. Jing Hengbo is certain that Hongxiang does not possess such bright and clear eyes; the vast majority of people in this world do not have them.
It is no exaggeration to say that she is worth her weight in gold; this mysterious beauty is one who is rewarded on a whim.
Big | Wave, may you seek your own blessings
Rely on!
Inside Jing Hengbo's house, there seems to be some movement
In her dream, a voice beside her ear spoke clearly and calmly: "Where is she?"
The mirror is a dark door, and behind the dark door is a small room
For the young women in the building, the increase in business and unexpected income naturally led to their gratitude towards Jing Hengbo. After witnessing Jing Hengbo's teleportation abilities, they further believed that he possessed extraordinary powers, or perhaps he was a revered figure supported by the government, or even a disciple sent by some overseas celestial sect to observe the local customs. They increasingly dared not offend him. Over time, the young women had subtly begun to regard Jing Hengbo as the head of their own entertainment troupe.
Jing Hengbo felt a sudden tightness in her chest, and her entire being involuntarily retreated slowly until she stopped at a distance of three feet, bending her body in a bowing posture
He did not look at her, slightly raising his face, his hands resting on his knees. The moonlight slanted in, illuminating only his jawline with a cold, jade-like radiance. His voice was also cool and jade-like, each word crystallized like ice and shattered snow.
There is a ghost! The man jumped up in shock, and his cries echoed throughout the building
... ...
The market fell silent, and even the whispers of astonishment completely vanished. People gaped in awe, their eyes filled with vibrant colors, reflecting the extraordinary scene of this moment, this fleeting brilliance
In the evening, Hong Xiang told her that she had encountered a knowledgeable young man, and she wished to reform herself. She was currently saving money for her redemption and asked for more opportunities. Jing Hengbo, who had always been easygoing, immediately agreed.
She had always been too afraid to look up, not even daring to glance at the veil that hung from the person's chin. All she could see was the tightly fastened collar of his garment, adorned with a silver pearl the size of a longan, lustrous and brilliant, beautiful and noble
Those pale pink cherry blossoms, exquisite and unparalleled, fell upon his shoulder. He neither reached out to brush them away nor did he halt his steps. Instead, the flowers, in tandem with his advancing pace, gradually soared backward, their petals dancing as if pulled by transparent threads, fluttering behind him like a peach blossom cloak, accentuating the flowing dark light of his white garment, strikingly pure and vibrant
The dim light reflected from downstairs illuminates her cat-like, glowing, flowing eyes, creating a scene of undulating waves.
In the next moment, she comfortably lay in a bedroom, beginning to catch up on her sleep
This past half month of her "client service" career has unfolded in this manner. She would enchant her clients, deceive them into parting with their money, and then turn off the lights. At that moment, she would feign going behind the curtain to remove her makeup, instantly transferring to another girl's room that had no business, bringing the client along to replace herself. The gold and silver gifts she had deceived from the clients would all belong to that girl, while she would hide in the other girl's room to sleep. Everyone was satisfied. The gold and silver gifts she had deceived from the clients would all belong to that girl, while she would hide in the other girl's room to sleep. Everyone was satisfied
That was the only adornment on his entire body, yet even a woman of the world like Hong Xiang could not help but feel that this minimal decoration was just right. With less, it would fail to support his noble demeanor; with more, it would be a form of desecration.
The madam locked the door with a swift motion, descending the stairs with a beaming smile. She extinguished the lights one by one in the corridor, as per Jing Hengbo's rules; when she received clients, there could be no light around.
Leaning against the door and listening for a while, she did not hear anything interesting. With a quick movement, she slipped through the door and crouched beside the dressing table to observe closely
That single pearl is likely worth far more than this gemstone
Everyone, regardless of what they are doing or in which direction they are heading, turns their heads in the same direction
Dislike! Abandon!
Hong Xiang turned her head; despite the multitude of people all around, she distinctly spotted a shadow.
You are allowed to escape three times, Your Majesty
She set the woman in her arms down and pushed her towards her room, "Hurry up, Old Yao is waiting."
