Chapter 87. A princess’s woman never gives up (15)

Shi Jiu: “…” Did she overact? Chaoyang really regarded her as a little white rabbit who didn’t understand anything.

Ahem, even though she had never eaten pork, she had at least seen a pig run. In the same way, even though she had never visited a brothel before, she had seen a lot of dramas and read enough novels to understand what goes on in those places.

But it was obvious that Chaoyang really considered her as a little white rabbit.

"The beautiful brother I'm talking about is the one who's coming later. That... I can't say he's just beautiful, I should say he's stunning." Chaoyang smiled obscenely as she spoke.

Shi Jiu: "..." Chaoyang had said that she was bringing Shi Jiu in order to educate her, but personally, Shi Jiu thought it was Chaoyang who wanted to come and visit.

"No matter how beautiful this brother is, he couldn’t be prettier than my sister."

"I...I'm pretty good-looking, but compared with Young Master Yurong...in short, he's even better-looking than me. He's the most handsome man I've ever seen in my life..."

Such an exaggeration, could he really be so beautiful?

Shi Jiu's heart was piqued.

The procurer came in with someone and served them food and wine, "I'm sorry, Mr. Yurong is changing his clothes. Please wait a moment." 

"She is still young and cannot drink such strong wine. Please change to fruit wine." Chaoyang pointed to the wine that was served.

"Yes, yes, yes." The procurer agreed, went down to get a few bottles of fruit wine, and then lowered the curtain opposite them.

Chaoyang poured herself a glass of wine, and then poured Shi Jiu a glass of fruit wine. "Little girl, please drink this. This will not make you drunk easily. Mr. Yurong is coming up, coming up."

Little girl? It seemed that Chaoyang was only half a year older than the "little girl" Lin Youniang.

Shi Jiu took the fruit wine and took a small sip.

Mr. Yurong came up, and through the curtain, one could only vaguely see that he was wearing white clothes, but his figure was quite good.

He held a harp and sat behind the curtain, preparing to play the harp.

As soon as the harp sounded, Chaoyang's expression changed.

"Phoenix…seeking Phoenix?"

Shi Jiu didn't feel anything. She was a music idiot and knew nothing about music. She couldn't tell the difference between the songs sung by others and the music played by others. She didn't care about the things that were not tuned correctly or if the pitch was too high.

I can’t hear a difference, and I only know two things, it either sounds great or doesn’t!

"What's wrong with Phoenix seeking Phoenix?" Shi Jiu pinched a petal-shaped snack and ate it.

Chaoyang watched her eating, her eyes darkening, "I've never heard him play Phoenix seeking Phoenix before when I previously visited."

Shi Jiu bit her snack, her voice a little slurred: "There are many kinds of music, and the music he learned is so…, you must have just not heard him play it before."

Chaoyang shook her head, "I've only heard him play one piece of music, and he said he only knew one." 

The snack in Shi Jiu's mouth fell on the table with a clatter.

“He only knows one song?"

"Yes."

"What song?"

"High Mountains and Flowing Waters."

Shi Jiu picked up the snacks that fell on the table and stuffed them into her mouth, and asked, "He is the number one here?"

“Yes."

"Is he selling himself?"

"No...he is selling his art, not his body." Chaoyang took a sip of wine.

Shi Jiu took a sip of fruit wine, "He doesn't sell his body, he only sells his art... He only knows one song... How did he become the number one?" 

"He is good-looking." 

"Does he play other musical instruments? Can he dance? Or recite poetry or paint?"

"Neither."

"He, the number one, can only play the harp and only one song. Does the procurer not force him to learn other things?" 

“He is too good-looking, so the procurer is reluctant to force him."

Apart from being good-looking, he had no merits. Oh, by the way, while he could also play a song, he knew only one.

Shi Jiu took a sip of wine to calm down.

She suddenly thought of Chaoyang's skillful movements, "Sister, how many times have you been here?"

"About twenty times." Chaoyang touched her ears and said with uncertainty.

Shi Jiu took a breath of air, "So sister, you've been here more than twenty times, spent so much money, and every time you come here to listen to just one song, are you not tired of hearing it?"

Chaoyang poured wine one cup after another, "Of course I'm tired of hearing this every time I come here, but..." 

“...”

“He's good-looking."
