"What? It’s so expensive, a thousand Immortal Spirit Stones? Was it always this expensive before?" Li Changze exclaid in shock.
A thousand Immortal Spirit Stones, that’s not a small amount.
"Sir, if you’re not satisfied, I can find you a girl at the usual price."
"You know, the Immortal Tomb is about to open, and there are too many custors, so our prices have gone up. In fact, it’s not just us; all the venues have raised their prices as well."
"Our price increase isn’t outrageous. For instance, the number one brothel in our Immortal City, Fengyue Building, charges up to ten thousand Immortal Spirit Stones for one night with an inexperienced girl," Xiaogui said.
"This..." Li Changze’s gaze kept wandering over the faces of the two girls; he really wanted to, but he didn’t have the money.
Mu Rufeng had money, but it wasn’t his. He was just hanging out with Mu Rufeng now.
Although he didn’t want to give up, he had no choice but to reluctantly find soone cheaper.
"Sir, choose us," Yuanyuan suddenly spoke, her voice soft and tender, her expression evoking deep sympathy.
Li Changze’s heart was suddenly shattered, his protective instinct instantly flaring up, and he decided to disregard everything.
"I’ll take them, no need to change," Li Changze said.
"Alright, sir, then rest early. I’ll take my leave. If you need anything, just call," Xiaogui said joyfully and quickly left, fearing Li Changze would change his mind.
Yuanyuan was born with a special ability to sense others’ malice, goodwill, and affections toward her.
She was sold into Jiangnan by human traffickers at the age of ten. At that ti, she was just considered cute, so they intended to train her as a girl for Fengyue.
But she could play musical instrunts, chess, and was literate and talented, so they trained her as a well-bred lady instead.
She officially started working three years ago and had seen many clients, all of whom harbored ill intentions and filthy thoughts toward her.
However, when she t Li Changze, although he had a hint of such thoughts, what was stronger were feelings of protection, pity, affection, and care.
So, if she couldn’t stop it, then maybe she should give her first ti to Li Changze.
Most importantly, Li Changze wasn’t bad-looking either.
As the door closed, Li Changze, facing the two girls, felt a bit at a loss.
"Uh... um... are you hungry? Would you like to eat sothing together?" Li Changze asked.
The two exchanged a glance and nodded timidly.
Then the three of them sat together and started eating and drinking.
There was also wine on the table, and as they ate, they began to open up gradually.
The conversation also beca more casual.
Especially Yuanyuan, who surprisingly didn’t sense that Li Changze had those thoughts anymore, only affection, sympathy, and so on.
So, they completely opened up and chatted freely.
"Yuanyuan, Xiao Ai, if I want to buy your freedom, how much would it cost?" Li Changze asked.
"Brother Changze, do you want to set us free?" Yuanyuan shivered all over; she sensed that Li Changze was serious about it.
"I want to set you free." Li Changze nodded.
"The price for our freedom is very high." Yuanyuan didn’t say directly.
"How much, tell . I don’t have enough money, but my elder brother does. I’ll beg him tomorrow; I’ll kneel and ask him to give the money to set you free," Li Changze said earnestly.
"But, but, for us good girls, it costs ten thousand Immortal Spirit Stones to buy freedom," Yuanyuan said softly.
"Yuanyuan, you got it wrong. We’re now Fengyue girls; it only costs five thousand Immortal Spirit Stones to buy our freedom," Xiao Ai said.
"Oh, right, we’re now Fengyue girls; it costs five thousand Immortal Spirit Stones. Brother Changze, it’s okay if the money isn’t enough, as long as you have the intention," Yuanyuan said.
"No, my elder brother has money. I’ll look for him tomorrow, don’t worry, he’ll definitely help ," Li Changze said firmly.
In fact, he wasn’t sure, because they’ve just known each other for a short ti, only as fellow townspeople, should, should help, right?
If worst cos to worst, he’ll borrow from his elder brother, even if he has to work for a million years to repay it.
"Brother Changze, you’re so good," Yuanyuan was moved; she felt fortunate to t Li Changze at this ti.
"I don’t want you to suffer; you shouldn’t be like this," Li Changze said softly.
"Brother Changze, take us," Yuanyuan suddenly said.
"Huh?" Li Changze didn’t react for a mont.
The next second, Yuanyuan leaned in and kissed him on the lips.
In an instant, Li Changze’s body stiffened, and he was sowhat dazed.
After a long ti, Yuanyuan released him: "Brother Changze, are you also a well-bred gentleman?"
"Uh... yes." Li Changze finally ca to his senses, scratching his head embarrassedly; his ears, neck, and face were as red as if he’d been slapped.
At this mont, Yuanyuan was even more satisfied with Li Changze.
"If, if Brother Changze could really set us free, how wonderful it would be. Brother Changze is soone one can entrust her life with," Yuanyuan was hopeful.
"Brother Changze, let’s rest. Whether or not you can free us tomorrow, our first ti belongs to you."
...
Ti returns to the present.
Yuanyuan was pulled away from Li Changze’s arms by a force.
And then she found herself on a lone boat, standing in front of the world-renowned Jade Flute Gentleman.
Her mind was blank, not knowing what to say or why this was happening.
