Book 22 Chapter 12 - eting Of The 2 Courtesans
Amazingly, Feng Fei did not look for Xiang Shaolong after the departure of Lord Longyang. It was only until lunchti was over before Little Ping’er received her command to summon Xiang Shaolong for a talk.
As he walked behind her towards the inner hall, Little Ping’er who has been ignoring him for the past few days suddenly remarked with a friendly disposition: “So you prefer males instead of females. Little Ping’er can finally give you up.”
Not knowing whether to laugh or cry, Xiang Shaolong knows that he should not deny it but he cannot don’t deny as well. Exhaling a breath, he predicted: “Sister Ping will know the truth one day. But there is sothing I do not understand. Shouldn’t Sister Ping be following Mistress all the way? Why does it seem like... Like... Hey!”
Covering her mouth, Little Ping’er giggled: “Are you implying that I appeared to be looking for soone to settle down with? Frankly speaking, it has never crossed my mind to marry you. I am only annoyed at your condescending behavior. Mistress has advised that my first ti is the most important, and must be given to soone who truly loves . I naturally do not wish to leave Mistress’s service but she had given the freedom to leave if I choose to.”
Suddenly, he was struck by a thought and quizzed: “What if you got yourself pregnant?”
Her face reddening slightly, Little Ping’er chided: “It is none of your business. Furthermore, all troupe mbers would know how to prevent fertilization. Oh, are you still interested in won? Why are you asking these embarrassing questions?”
Seeing that in the opinion of Little Ping’er, it is a forgone conclusion that he is gay so he kept quiet instead.
The side of the inner hall is still occupied by various instrunts but there is nobody else except for Feng Fei. After Little Ping’er excused herself, Xiang Shaolong sat down alongside Feng Fei, inquiring: “Has Mistress t Shi Sufang before?”
Feng Fei shook her head in an uninterested way, lanting: “(Boss) Jin Cheng is a real talent, managing the operations, courtesans and clients in an admirable fashion, gaining the respect of one and all. Unfortunately, I am unable to recruit soone as capable as him, otherwise, I need not bear with your nonsense.”
Xiang Shaolong prompted: “Mistress is still mad at ?”
Feng Fei lowered her head, chuckling: “Who dares to be angry at you? Even Lord Longyang is full of admiration and respect for you. Moreover, you would hug and kiss whenever you are in a good mood but will turn around and give a piece of your mind when you are in a bad mood. Luckily, Feng Fei no longer needs to worry about you needing a companion for the night. Otherwise, it will be a source of insomnia for .”
Deflated like a balloon, Xiang Shaolong mused: “Even you believe that I am gay.”
Feng Fei shook her head: “Nope, but this is what everyone else is thinking. Xinyue was so heartbroken she went back to her room in tears. But I am certain you are not adverse to females, because I am speaking from personal experience. I am intentionally teasing you, dying to wipe that silly smile off your face.”
Xiang Shaolong bitterly laughed: “You are really good to .”
Feng Fei admitted: “I can no longer fathom what kind of person you are but since Lord Longyang guarantees your absolute reliability, singing the sa tune as Mister Tan, I am willing to conclude that you are a man of your word. Feng Fei will no longer doubt you and wishes to listen to your plans.”
Xiang Shaolong plainly advised: “We must resolve our internal issues before we can confront external parties; there is no better way. If Mistress is prepared to delegate complete authority to , I will firstly commit to getting rid of Zhang Quan, Sa Li and their conspirators. Once we reached Xianyang safely, it will be mission accomplished.”
Feng Fei was slightly upset: “You seed to have forgotten that Lu Buwei wields considerable influence in Xianyang.”
Acting surprised, Xiang Shaolong wondered: “Mistress is going for Xiang Shaolong, isn’t? What can Lu Buwei do to him?”
Feng Fei knows that she had spilled the wrong beans and shyly lied: “But he is currently engaged in war. I am afraid that Lu Buwei will hunt down before I get to see him.”
Amused, Xiang Shaolong purposely teased her: “That is not an issue. All we need to do is to notify the Wu Family. They will surely offer Mistress protection.”
Feng Fei’s face has turned completely red: “We must never do that. Nobody knows about our special relationship. Aye. Can we talk about this later?”
Xiang Shaolong decided to let her off this ti. Checking the sky, he reminded: “Shi Sufang should be here any minute. I will receive her at the main gate. Does Mistress have other instructions?”
Feng Fei questioned: “Do you have any appointnts tonight?”
Xiang Shaolong shook his head: “I have to pay a visit to Xie Ziyuan tonight. What do you have in mind?”
Feng Fei responded: “It is nothing much. I initially wanted you to accompany to attend a banquet hosted by the King of Qi and Tian Dan. It is a welcoming feast for Lu Buwei and I wanted you to observe him from the side. Forget it. ”
Xiang Shaolong was secretly grateful for this close shave. Ever since Lord Longyang and Li Yuan saw through his masquerade, he does not have the confidence to face Lu Buwei.
When Xiao Yuetan offered to disguise his appearance, they were not prepared for face-to-face encounters so Xiang Shaolong could not bla him.
Feng Fei aningfully batted her eyes at him, imploring: “Can you co to my room tonight? I have several matters to consult you.”
Knowing that she is finally trusting him, Xiang Shaolong cheerfully left.
Striding out of the main gate, Shi Sufang’s convoy of carriages was just arriving. Xiang Shaolong hastily hunched his back and slipped the fruit seed under his tongue before advancing forward to welco her.
As charming as ever, Shi Sufang dismounted from her carriage in an unhurried manner. Xiang Shaolong and his fellow colleagues from Feng Fei’s troupe were in a daze over her worldly beauty. He bowed down to pay his respects to her, not daring to et her at eye level.
After two maids adjusted her cape, Shi Sufang ca up to Xiang Shaolong with Boss Jin by her side.
This beauty did not put on any make up and her hair is bundled to the top of her head before forming a short braid at the back. It is a sowhat casual style, unique to her and matching her aura perfectly.
Under the wind-breaking cape, she wore a coat with a singlet on top. There were shoulder pads on her two shoulders, tied prettily with ribbons. In addition, three thin belts are coiled around her waist, showing off its slenderness and causing her breasts to beco more noticeable, enhancing her beauty by several notches.
Xiang Shaolong could not help but secretly praise her intelligence.
In terms of beauty, only Ji Yanran, Qin Qing or Li Yanyan is able to match Feng Fei.
But since Shi Sufang is fully utilizing her strength, which is her individuality, she only appears to be slightly inferior to Feng Fei.
On the surface, it is a friendly eting between the two ladies but comparisons will inevitably be made.
Shi Sufang appears to be unable to see through Xiang Shaolong’s disguise. When Boss Jin introduced the two of them, she only nodded her head as a show of courtesy.
Xiang Shaolong swiftly moved ahead to lead the way.
Boss Jin took two quick steps, walking shoulder to shoulder with him before querying: “I just received news, saying that Brother Shen barged into Zongsun Residence all by yourself, asking for your captured n to be released. Is it really true?”
Xiang Shaolong realized that news really travels fast in Lin Zi and answered: “It is just a lucky break!”
Boss Jin instantly had a better opinion of Xiang Shaolong, raising a thumb up and cautioned: “Now I know why Miss Feng assign Brother Shen such a heavy responsibility. However, Zongsun Long has always been a domineering man. Now that he has lost face, he will certainly get even with you one day. I noticed that Brother Shen did not even have a sword with you. I will get soone to deliver one to you later. Whenever necessary, you can use it to defend yourself. If you do not accept, you are disregarding Jin Cheng () as a friend.”
Xiang Shaolong laughed: “I guess my only choice is to thank you from the bottom of my heart.”
Shi Sufang’s pleasant sounding voice advised from behind: “Zongsun Long’s son Zongsun Xuanhua is one of the top four disciples of Mister Wangyou, Cao Qiudao. Mister Shen must be careful.”
Boss Jin painstakingly guided: “I am not aware of Brother Shen’s sword skills but this man has yet to et his match in Lin Zi and shares equal fa with Tian Dan’s number one swordsman Dan Chu. When Brother Shen face him and is not confident about winning, you can throw down your sword and admit defeat. The swordsn of Qixia value their reputation and will never attack a declared loser. Hey. Although we are newly acquainted, I am already using such a heavy tone. Brother Shen please do not hold it against .”
Xiang Shaolong can only feel goodwill for this man. He nodded: “I have yet to express my gratitude for your concern. Why would I hold anything against you?”
Behind him, Shi Sufang was astounded: “I did not expect Mister Shen to be so broadminded, not taking to heart when Master Jin asserted that you are inferior to Zongsun Xuanhua.”
Slightly tensed, Xiang Shaolong changed the topic: “Qixia is famous for their swordsn. I am sure there are many outstanding characters besides the two of them.”
Boss Jin articulated: “The sword practitioners are imasurable but the cream of the cream are only a handful. Ma Chenjia and Min Tingzhang are two of them and they love to participate in duels. After Brother Shen’s encounter last night, you may have invited more trouble for yourself.”
Shi Sufang gently reasoned: “No matter how reckless they are, they would not dare cause trouble here. But if Mister Shen leaves this place, you may be open to their provocation.”
Xiang Shaolong appreciated: “Many thanks for Mistress’s pointers.”
By now, they have arrived at the stairs of the main block where Feng Fei is residing. Feng Fei ca out of the door to welco them and both ladies exchanged a knowing look, wasting no ti in scrutinizing each other, capturing every little detail.
Feng Fei sweetly smiled: “I have heard of Junior Sister Shi’s fa a long ti ago. Today we finally get the chance to et each other.”
After Shi Sufang paid her respects as a junior, she went forward and held Feng Fei’s hands, exclaiming: “Senior Sister Feng is giving too much credit. When I first laid my eyes on Senior Sister Feng, I almost thought you are an angel from heaven!”
With a lodious and ringing titter, Feng Fei hooked arms with Shi Sufang as they stepped into the hall.
Seeing that Boss Jin is still dazzled on the spot like a wooden chicken due to his first encounter with Feng Fei’s ultimate magnificence, Xiang Shaolong gave him a slight push, bringing him to his senses and following Xiang Shaolong into the hall.
Feng Fei and Xiang Shaolong sat down on one side while Shi Sufang and Boss Jin sat on the other side as Little Ping’er served tea.
Out of the blue, Xiang Shaolong thought of a crazy theory.
To a certain extent, Lu Buwei’s desperate attempts to obtain Feng Fei are due to a hidden competitive nature against Xiang Shaolong specifically.
Ji Yanran is Xiang Shaolong’s wife and Lu Buwei’s pursuit of Qin Qing has ended in failure. Unless he gets his hands on Feng Fei, he will be inferior to Xiang Shaolong in this aspect. To be honest, even Lu Buwei himself may not be able to perpetuate this reality.
After a round of pleasantries, Shi Sufang humbly seeked: “Master Jin has his own point to make but Sufang (I) is sincerely here to learn from Senior Sister Feng, curious to find out what is Senior Sister Feng’s secret to making everyone fall head over heels over your performances.”
Feng Fei knows that she is just being modest because Shi Sufang herself is another captivating courtesan. Nonetheless, there is so truth in her words. Feng Fei warmly articulated: “Junior Sister need not put on the high pedestal. We are simply entertainers and everything we do follow this 16-word motto: Great Song & Dance, White Teeth & Pretty Eyes, Performing according to Segnt, Finding one’s Niche. Although we are just a display of Song & Dance, at the sa ti, we are spreading culture and aesthetic appreciation.”
Shi Sufang was overjoyed: “Sufang would like to hear about the details of the 16-word motto.”
Feng Fei’s lovely eyes turned to Xiang Shaolong and plainly invited: “Why don’t Manager Shen explain on my behalf?”
Shi Sufang and Boss Jin cannot conceal the surprise on their faces. Feng Fei is known to be proud and aloof; why would she allow a lowly manager to represent her views? Xiang Shaolong obviously knew that Feng Fei is testing him and can only groan inwardly. Currently, the fruit seed is underneath his tongue, so the minute he starts talking, the ticulous Feng Fei will start suspecting that he is afraid of Shi Sufang for certain reasons. He could only stutter: “I just bit my tongue accidentally and it is not convenient for to speak at length. It is better for Mistress... Hey!” Seeing that the three persons are staring at him with their eyes wide open, he had to stop talking and awkwardly opened his palms skywards.
Looking at him shrugging his shoulders and opening his palms skywards, Shi Sufang was reminded of a similar cheeky body language by soone she had t before but at that point in ti, she could not relate it to Xiang Shaolong. She intriguingly remarked: “I did not know that Mister Shen is a fellow connoisseur. I will seek your guidance next ti.”
Boss Jin guffawed: “Even my curiosity is stirred by Mistress (Feng Fei).”
Feng Fei nastily stared at Xiang Shaolong for a mont before explaining: “Great Song & Dance, White Teeth & Pretty Eyes refers to the combination of performing talent and a beautiful appearance. They make up the star power of the perforr and by utilizing a pleasant and inviting set up, you will attract the audience’s attention and subsequently leave them bedazzled. Junior Sister need not feel inferior to . You are a success in your own right!”
Shi Sufang shook her head: “Senior Sister Feng is being too polite. Among the Three Famous Courtesans, with regards to beauty, talent, song composition or choreography, anyone you ask will absolutely nominate Senior Sister Feng to be the best. Thus, it is widely acknowledged that you are the leading courtesan. After learning that Senior Sister Feng is planning to retire to your hotown, no matter how difficult it is; I will have to pay Senior Sister Feng a visit and respectfully seek your advice.”
Boss Jin enquired: “May I ask Mistress (Feng Fei) what is the aning behind Performing according to Segnt, Finding one’s Niche?”
Xiang Shaolong first scanned Feng Fei before moving his gaze to Shi Sufang, feasting his eyes on their beauty. He did not feel tired at all and wished that this exchange can go on for much longer.
He did not expect the difficult-to-get-along Lady of Three Perfections Shi Sufang to behave in a subservient manner in front of Feng Fei. If she is not here to learn a few tricks on the sly, she would be harbouring a hidden agenda.
Nevertheless, Feng Fei is exceptionally quick witted and it will not be easy for Shi Sufang to benefit from her sharing.
Feng Fei simply rationalized: “People on different social levels will exhibit different interests and appreciation. If we are performing in the royal palace, the main concept has to be an auspicious celebration. Before an audience of learned scholars, a less boisterous performance is preferred. It would be ideal to have a performance with deep content, invoking one’s afterthoughts. If you are performing to the mass public, you must create a lively atmosphere, emphasizing concepts of love, separation, joy and sorrow, stimulating the viewers’ emotions.”
Boss Jin slapped the table, sighing: “With these few words, Sufang will benefit to no ends.”
Shi Sufang was exhilarated: “An example of Finding one’s niche is Senior Sister Feng who created her own brand and unique performing style. Even if soone wishes to copy, one can only copy the context but never the content.”
Recalling that Feng Fei challenged the singing norms with her novel singing thod, Xiang Shaolong could not help but agree in unison.
Feng Fei was not the least flattered by their praises but plainly queried: “Now that you have heard it all, I wonder what instructions does Boss Jin and Junior Sister have for Feng Fei?”
Boss Jin replied in a serious manner: “I wonder if Mistress has heard of this playboy nad Qi Yu?”
Feng Fei frowned: “Yes, I have heard of his na. He is said to be the descendent of an official. Blessed with good looks and the gift of the gab, he has deflowered nurous pitiful girls. Why did Boss Jin bring him up?”
Hearing the na Qi Yu, Xiang Shaolong recalled that this is the man whom Zhao Mu used to seduce Zhao Ya. Now that Zhao Ya has passed on, his heart was firstly struck with grief; but Feng Fei used his proverb: Gift of the Gab, and her face turned slightly red montarily, indicating that she is thinking of him, causing his heart to be struck by longing.
The two irreconcilable feelings arise at the sa ti, causing him to experience an indescribable sensation.
Boss Jin continued: “This man is now an active companion of Soft Boned Beauty Lan Gongyuan. Two nights ago, he was extrely drunk at Yiya Brothel, the biggest local brothel, and started to speak in an absurd manner. He predicted that this ti round, Lan Gongyuan would be able to outshine Mistress’s brilliance, causing Mistress to retire with regrets and hatred. It is a bizarre statent indeed.”
This is a good example to highlight Feng Fei’s refinent. Despite the threat, her face remains calm and peaceful, only revealing simple signs of deep contemplation.
Shi Sufang softly surmised: “We could not help but feel worried for Senior Sister Feng. He only ntioned Senior Sister Feng’s na and not Sufang’s (my) na, indicating the possibility of a sche and the high likelihood of success, inciting our bewildernt.”
Hearing these words, Xiang Shaolong was greatly alard, deducing that this matter must be linked to the leaking of the song sheet. But logically, the song sheet is still in the possession of Dong Shuzen; why is Qi Yu acting so confident? The more he thought about it, the more he felt that sothing is not right. Not in the mood to carry on the conversation, he stood up.
The other three individuals looked at him questioningly.
Xiang Shaolong excused himself and left alone in search of Dong Shuzen. The gorgeous beauty was resting in her room when Xiang Shaolong barged right in, dismissed her maids and imdiately interrogated: “Where is the song sheet which you secretly copied?”
Dong Shuzen was irritated: “Are you going to force a confession out of ?”
Suppressing his anger, Xiang Shaolong sat down and illustrated: “Qi Yu openly declared that he has a way to make Mistress (Feng Fei) retire with regrets and hatred. If he did not have the song sheet, why would he make such a wild prophecy?”
Dong Shuzen’s face lost so colour but she firmly shook her head: “The song sheet is still here. Aye. I just got it back from Xiuzhen and was prepared to have you burn it!”
Xiang Shaolong demanded: “Then give it to now!”
Dong Shuzen furiously glared at him for so ti before moving to a chest in the corner, retrieving a bamboo tube and throwing it to him in an angry manner.
Xiang Shaolong easily caught the tube and pried the cover off, obtaining a roll of parchnt.
Opening the parchnt, his face lost all colour. In a horrified tone, he questioned: “Why is it blank?”
This ti round, it is Dong Shuzen’s face that underwent a drastic change. Petrified and coming to his side, she fearfully shrieked: “Heavens! Who made a switch?”
Xiang Shaolong can feel his heart sinking in. Unless Feng Fei can create a new song within the next ten days before the performance, she will have to resort to singing her old songs. It will be a great letdown as the new song is specially composed to commorate the birthday of the King of Qi. Her face deathly grey in colour, Dong Shuzen stamred in a trembling voice: “This is impossible. Xiuzhen and I have been extrely careful.”
Xiang Shaolong sighed: “The only solution now is to be honest with Mistress (Feng Fei) and pray for so form of salvation.”
Leaping into his arms, Dong Shuzen was shaking uncontrollably: “Shen Liang, please save !”
Dong Shuzen and Zhu Xiuzhen are kneeling in front of Feng Fei, completely crestfallen like inmates on a death row. Until now, they could not comprehend who made the switch and stole the copy of the song sheet.
There is no sign of blood on Feng Fei’s delicate face now that her painstaking creation has landed in the hands of Lan Gongyuan. Needless to say, it was a devastating blow to her and she was not in the mood to punish the two ladies.
Xiang Shaolong was depressed too. He suggested: “If Mistress can be the first to perform, it does not matter even if Lan Gongyuan has the song sheet.”
Feng Fei shook her head: “It has been agreed that we will be performing the finale item. Moreover, Tian Dan is the organizer and they are out to make things difficult for us. They will not permit the change in order of the performances.”
Xiang Shaolong wondered: “Is Mistress able to co up with a new song?”
Feng Fei bitterly laughed: “Unless I can co up with a song within a day, we would not even have the ti to rehearse for the song, leading to a lackluster presentation. Aye, it is hard to guard against internal spies but I guess Feng Fei (I) is partly to be blad too.”
Hearing her words, Dong Shuzen and Zhu Xiuzhen cried inconsolably and collapsed on the floor.
Xiang Shaolong could not help but feel respect for Feng Fei. Although this beauty has been selfish to so extent, she possesses the magnitude to reflect on her own behavior given the present circumstances. It demonstrates her broadmindedness and empathetic personality.
Feng Fei looked over to Xiang Shaolong with her eyes filled with disappointnt. In an amazingly harmonious tone, she lanted: “I would rather refrain from performing than to put up a substandard show. I have committed to using a new song for the birthday celebration and it is inappropriate to recycle an old tune with new lyrics. Looks like I have to fake an illness to excuse myself from this competition.”
Out of a sudden, Xiang Shaolong’s muscular body shook vigorously as his eyes glowed with newfound energy. He proposed in a solemn voice: “I once composed a song and if I try to hum the tune, would it stimulate Mistress’s thinking cap, allowing you to alter it into a new song?”
In actual fact, he is hardly a songwriter but he did frequent Karaoke Lounges back in the 21st Century and there are ten odd songs that he is familiar with. Faced with a desperate situation like this, he wishes to contribute as much as possible.
The tunes of these songs are totally different from ancient tunes but under Feng Fei, this ancient musical talent, it may be convertible to suit the music of this era.
Feng Fei consented: “Let’s hear you sing it.”
Xiang Shaolong bitterly laughed: “I cannot sing. I can only hum.”
Feng Fei appears to pay little regards to his composition and snapped: “Then let’s hear you hum. Aye, you said you have hurt your tongue and yet you are speaking in such a flawless manner now.”
Xiang Shaolong is not interested to rebut her and picked the most popular song back in the 21st Century: ‘I cannot leave him’ and began humming.
His humming skill is deplorable but his rhythm and accuracy of the beats is rather precise.
When he first began humming, Feng Fei thought nothing of it but after Xiang Shaolong awkwardly humd halfway through the song, her emotions went from keen interest to shock and awe. Even Dong Shuzen and Zhu Xiuzhen have stopped crying, staring at him with disbelief.
After humming the entire song, Xiang Shaolong pathetically asked Feng Fei as his face turned red: “How is it?”
Dazed like a wooden chicken, Feng Fei stared at him for quite a while before exhaling a breath: “You never fail to surprise . This is the first ti I ever heard such a strange tone. It is pleasing to the ears but the tone is sorrowful and unsuitable for a festive atmosphere.”
Xiang Shaolong panicked: “I have another song.”
Feng Fei was astounded: “I thought you only composed one song?”
Xiang Shaolong had to confess: “I was uttering rubbish. To be honest, I have composed several songs.”
Touched, Feng Fei nodded as if she suddenly recalled sothing. Turning to the two ladies, she hissed: “Get out of my sight.”
The two ladies hurriedly took their leave. As they were leaving, the look on their faces for Xiang Shaolong is enough to srize any man for years to co.
Xiang Shaolong chose a fast and upbeat ‘Navy Anthem’ and began humming.
Feng Fei stood up after the second song has ended and threw herself into his arms, embracing him tightly in a bear hug, swearing: “Even if you want Feng Fei’s (my) body, Feng Fei will gladly give it to you. I only ask that you hum all the songs that you have composed. This ti round, I will make that thieving Lan Gongyuan suffer a crushing defeat.”
By the ti Xiang Shaolong left Feng Fei’s block, he felt like he just woke up from a dream.
He obviously would not take advantage of the situation and make love to Feng Fei. However, he is certain that based on his ten odd songs, he has won her heart.
It is not as if Feng Fei has fallen in love with him but rather Feng Fei is viewing him in the sa way he views Li Mu: Nothing but admiration.
Xiang Shaolong may be feeling guilty but his endeavor to assist Feng Fei to defeat Lan Gongyuan is more important than anything else.
He barely left the garden of the main block when he was intercepted by Dong Shuzen and Zhu Xiuzhen.
Xiang Shaolong had to fulfill his appointnt with Xie Ziyuan and comforted them as much as he can with kind words. At the sa ti, he reminded them not to disturb Feng Fei who is working hard at composing a new song. He instructed: “The two of you should think about who is the third party who knows about the hiding place of the song sheet. We must find out who is the culprit.”
Zhu Xiuzhen replied: “Only Zhang Quan knows about it besides us but it is impossible for him to enter my room without my knowledge.”
Xiang Shaolong reasoned: “He can easily overco this obstacle by bribing your serving maids.”
As Zhu Xiuzhen was feeling guilt-ridden, Xiang Shaolong took this opportunity to take his leave. Arriving at the main hall, the sword as promised by Boss Jin happened to be delivered at the sa ti. Pulling out the sword for a look, he can tell that it is a high quality weapon although it is inferior to Bloodwave. The sword felt heavy, which matches his needs and he can feel an increase in goodwill towards Boss Jin as a result.
Xiao Yuetan is right. Boss Jin is a hero in his own ways.
After making arrangents for Feng Fei’s dinner appointnt to be cancelled, Xiang Shaolong piled on additional clothes and a cap before he left Tingsong Villa.
As the rain and snow fell around him, he noticed that the roads were largely deserted.
Recalling his earlier encounters, he was amused that everyone had the notion that he was unfathomable. His infinite pool of ideas, thods and resources is due to 2000 years of human advancent, paving a way out for him in countless situations.
If he wanted to make love to Feng Fei tonight, she will surely succumb despite so initial resistance but this is sothing beyond his integrity.
Having so fun with her is one thing but if he goes overboard, he would be a third party breaking up her relationship, which is sothing he wants to avoid at all costs. Right now, he is on close terms with several beauties and yet maintains a non 5exual relationship is surprisingly another source of delight.
When he initially lost the battle and was on the run, he would never imagine himself leading his current lifestyle.
When Feng Fei holds her rehearsals again, it would be necessary to keep it confidential, preventing her valuable intellectual property rights from being pirated. Although he was a pirate too for violating the copyrights of other songwriters, there is no conflict of interest.
Because in the 21st Century, all records of ancient music have been lost.
Thinking on a deeper level, even if Lan Gongyuan gets hold of the new song, she would not have sufficient ti to practice. Moreover, Feng Fei can insert other lyrics into the new song and there is nothing Lan Gongyuan can do.
As he thought up till this point, hoof beats sounded behind him.
He did not think too much about it until the hoof beats stopped about ten steps behind him. He instantly increased his sense of alertness.
Next, the quivering sound of a spear can be heard.
His hand grasping the handle of the new sword Boss Jin presented to him, he cald himself down.
His attacker is a single man on a single horse. By observing the rhythm of the hoof beats, he can tell that his opponent is a seasoned fighter.
The corners of his mouth curving up to form a grin; Xiang Shaolong did not bother to look back. He slowed down his pace and leisurely walk amidst the rain and snow.
As forewarned by Boss Jin, his challenger has finally appeared.
