Chapter 285 - Drunken Flower
One thing that make Lory angry because the idea of Zhao Li Xin with other women is very possible because she's not from this world she just accidentally send to this world if she was sent to another world if she never met Zhao Li Xin if she didn't save him... will he be with other women, a woman like Lao Min Na or Tang Mei Yi and when she imagines Zhao Li Xin would pamper them as he does to her it make her infuriated, Lory knew its only an imagination and she admit she's being unreasonable but what can she do, when you angry, you just angry.
Lory was toss and turn on the bed, while Girsha dozes off on his luxurious pillow he ignores Lory because he can't understand the complicated feeling of human. Lory can't stand anymore she got up from her bed than she opens the connecting door between her room and Zhao Li Xin.
Zhao Li Xin room is a lot bigger than her, at first he wanted to gives Lory the same size room but Lory refused it although her room in cestine palace is a lot bigger more like two-storey suite room but after she came to this world she got easily feel lonely and big room make her feel empty and alone, that's why she refused big room strongly.
Zhao Li Xin room is a dark room with dark furniture painted with gold and white curtains to divided between the bedroom, lounge area, and small reading room, the dark brown wall is decorated with big painting and there's an antic vas on the small table on the corner of the room.
Zhao Li Xin room is always clean and neat to the point it feel no one lived here, is like a showroom even colder than that because there's not even a stain on the table, Lory's hand caress the overly clean table than she walks to the small reading room, the book is arranged neatly on the shelf and the paintbrush holder is on the table with stack of paper on the corner of the table ready to be used, Lory than sighs suddenly she feel lonely, she blamed herself for overreacted, why should she angry over stupid matter this is so stupid and childish, she must apologize to Zhao Li Xin, she hopes he wouldn't angry too much with her.
Lory was sitting behind the table while playing with the paintbrush when someone knocked gently on the door, Lory forgot she had locked the door, she runs to the door while still holding the paintbrush, she thought it was Zhao Li Xin but turns out its Ming Yue Yin, Lory face turn dimmed.
Ming Yue Yin was offended when she sees her reaction "You not happy to see me?" she complains.
Lory sighs than she turns around "I thought you someone else"
Ming Yue Yin never seen Zhao Li Xin room, when Lory open the door to let her in she enter the room excitedly she wants to know what kinda room that scary uncle living in "You think I'm uncle?" she said perfunctorily while scrutinizing the room, it does a beautiful room, cold and somehow eerie like no one is lived here for a long time, this room match Zhao Li Xin character perfectly.
"Yeah…I want to talk something important with him" Lory plop on the chair while fiddling the paintbrush on her hand.
"Uncle is meeting with Master Bei I think" Ming Yue Yin check on the weird small pig statue on the long table.
"I hope he didn't take long…." Lory make a heavy heaved.
Ming Yue Yin chuckles "Who knows, he met Master Bei in his turf after all…." She snickered while checking another statue without mind with her words.
"What's wrong with Li Yan turf?" Lory stops playing with her paintbrush.
Ming Yue Yin didn't bother to check Lory's expression because she's busy shaking the statue who make weird sounds when it moves "Oh that….its a brothels" she blurted out.
"WHAT?" the pain brush broke in two in her hand.
"What? Ming Yue Yin stops shaking the statue with a blank face.
Brothels is a legal business in this world, it's normal for young men to visit brothels although coming too often is not good for they're imaged but society is more loose to male than female, one of the methods that Bei Li Yan use to gather information is through brothels because so many men enter and exit this place and their mouth is running freely when they are drinking and indulged themself with women, using this method is more effective.
The brothels are called 'Drunken flower' not like any brothels not all women inside this place is providing s*x, some of them only entertain customer with singing and dancing but the customer still allowed to court them and become the woman exclusive client, the purpose of this place is not looking for profit but mainly for gathering information from their customer so the women are not forced to sell themselves, there are many methods with drugs and elixir to make the client have a good time even if what they feel might not real.
"Milord why don't you give her jewelry, all women love jewelry…" Bei Li Yan wants to cry, his Lord had to impose his place for hours it's okay if they were conducting business but his Lord keeps asking him weird things that give him a headache.
"Should I give the whole purple jade stores?" Zhao Li Xin rubs his chin seriously.
"The whole stores?" Bei Li Yan stunned.
"Yes," he nods firmly.
"Can you just give a few pieces jewelry" Bei Li Yan massaged his temples.
"Why not everything, you think I can afford it?" he glared at his subordinate.
"Milord do you ever hear, less is more?" Bei Li Yan forcing his charming smiles.
"Yes…." He frowned deeply.
"Then…." Bei Li Yan waves his hand subconsciously hoping his Lord would understand his mean.
"I think its stupid, less is less, more is more how can less become more?" he look Bei Li Yan as if he was stupid.
'You are STUPID!!'
Wu San Bo almost enter the room, when he slightly open the door he heard the discussion between Bei Li Yan and Zhao Li Xin and he decide he didn't want to get involved than he stealthily close the door again and left the room in haste, Bei Li Yan notice the silver robes who almost enter the room his face lit up when he thought Wu san Bo would join him but sadly Wu San Bo chose to save himself and runaway alone. Bei Li Yan cursed Wu San Bo hundreds of times inside his head.
"Milord, too much jewelry might not make her feel comfortable what else she likes?" Bei Li Yan slumped on his chair.
He thinks for a second then he replied confidently "Sweet"
"So, why don't you bought her sweet? I know she likes a few shop pastries in this area" Bei Li Yan sigh tiredly.
Zhao Li Xin frowned again "But she doesn't want to see me…."
'Then you screw!'

"Come on get in, why are you so shy?" a young master pulls his friend's arms to enter the brothel where the girls welcome them with coy smiles.
"Its…. it's embarrassing, what if someone recognizes me!" the young friend covers his face with the white fan.
"Than go home, I'm not forcing you to come!" the young master left his friend and he clasped his hand behind his back and enter the brothels with calm smiles
The young friend's face was red like a ripe tomato, he also curious about how is this place looks like in the inside and why men like this place so much, he stomps his feet than he grabs the young master hand "Aunty, don't leave me…" he whines.
"Hush!" he flicks his friend's forehead.
