Chapter 55: Chapter 56: Seeing Through the Disguise

Accompanied by the madam’s words, "Miss Xiang Qin does not sell her body, only her talents; gentlen, please enjoy yourselves," the door to the chamber was gently closed.

"This humble woman greets the two gentlen," Xiang Qin hurriedly stepped forward and bowed.

Her graceful body carried a hint of allure.

She exuded the aura of the demi-monde but did not appear vulgar.

In such a place heavy with cheap makeup and gaudiness, her clear beauty stood out distinctively.

Compared to a proper lady, she carried an extra touch of enchanting charm; compared to a woman of the demi-monde, there was an added purity.

Ye Qichi couldn’t help but sigh, "The leading courtesan of Yicui Pavilion truly lives up to her reputation."

"The gentleman flatters ," Xiang Qin said with a touch of shyness, without seeming artificial.

Not only was she pleasing to the eye, but her conversation and deanor were also top-notch.

As the number one assassin of the Ten Extres Sect, she was one in a hundred.

"Gentlen, please over here," she said.

Xiang Qin led them to sit on the soft couch, and once they were seated,

she gracefully made her way to the Jade Zither, "I will play a piece for the two gentlen."

"We’re not here to listen to tunes today," Ye Qichi directly refused, smiling, "I ca to drink with Miss."

"I’m not good with alcohol, one drink and I’m drunk," Xiang Qin demurred, "afraid it might ruin the gentlen’s pleasure."

"Miss simply needs to pour the drinks," Ye Qichi stated bluntly.

"As the gentleman wishes," Xiang Qin elegantly stood up from beside the Jade Zither.

She knelt to pour drinks for Ye Qichi and Gu Xingchuan.

Just as her delicate jade hand was about to pour the wine,

Ye Qichi abruptly grabbed Xiang Qin’s hand.

Xiang Qin was taken aback.

Ye Qichi directly lifted up Xiang Qin’s sleeve.

A bloodstain on her wrist, stark and fearso.

Xiang Qin quickly pushed Ye Qichi away and hurriedly pulled down her sleeve, "Gentleman, I do not sell my body, only my arts."

"Apologies for my impudence, the lady is too beautiful," Ye Qichi said with a smile.

Gu Xingchuan watched Ye Qichi’s unusual actions from the side, remaining silent.

Xiang Qin once again poured drinks for Ye Qichi and Gu Xingchuan.

Ye Qichi raised his glass, "To you, Brother Gu, I offer a toast."

Since transmigrating into this book, except for the few tis she feigned drinking with Ye Zhilan back at the Minister Mansion, she hadn’t really indulged in drinking.

Once, she too was fond of wine, especially after his death, when she spent a long ti drowning her sorrows in it. After coming out of her grief, her fondness for drinking remained, but since arriving here, maybe it was the unfamiliar environnt, she had almost forgotten about the joy of wine.

In this mont, with such a comfortable environnt and atmosphere, she suddenly felt an urge to drink.

Gu Xingchuan quickly raised his glass, "To you, Brother Ye, my respects."

The two began to drink, glass after glass.

Gu Xingchuan’s tolerance was not bad.

But ultimately, he could not outdrink Ye Qichi.

In the end, his vision blurred, and he even collapsed onto the table in front of him and fell into a deep sleep.

His face as red as a monkey’s behind.

"Gentleman, drinking too much is bad for your health," Xiang Qin cautioned Ye Qichi as she saw he intended to keep drinking.

Ye Qichi looked at Xiang Qin.

The wine in ancient tis was very strong.

But due to her unique body, her ability to sober up was naturally much stronger than that of an ordinary person.

She was slightly tipsy at the mont, but she knew she wasn’t drunk.

She asked, "If I wish to redeem you, Miss, would you be willing to leave with ?"

"The gentleman must be drunk," she said.

"I’m not drunk," Ye Qichi assured her soberly.

"If you’re not drunk, why would you think of redeeming ?" Xiang Qin said with a charming smile.

Ye Qichi paused for a mont, "You noticed?"

"Which young master could possibly possess the unmatched beauty of the young lady." Xiang Qin seed to be flattering, when in fact she was just masking her exceptional observational skills.

Ye Qichi wasn’t actually surprised.

Xiang Qin was incredibly intelligent to begin with, so it wasn’t strange for her to see through his disguise.

She didn’t want to beat around the bush anymore and said, "Miss, the poison in your body should take effect within three days."

Xiang Qin’s hand holding the wine pot trembled.

She quickly concealed her montary panic, smiling as she said, "This humble one does not know what the young lady is talking about?"

"I have the antidote." Ye Qichi didn’t need to force Xiang Qin to admit her identity, "If Miss wishes to regain her freedom, you can send soone to Guji dical Hall to pass a ssage to Gu Xingchuan. Once I receive Miss’s ssage, I will co to provide the antidote."

Xiang Qin still pretended to be clueless, "The young lady must really be inebriated. How about this humble one helps you to bed to rest?"

"No need." Ye Qichi stood up from the cushion.

No need for further words, just wait for the response.

Upon getting up, Ye Qichi actually felt a bit dizzy.

It was always the kick of the alcohol that hit afterwards.

Xiang Qin hastily supported Ye Qichi.

Ye Qichi waved her hand off and said, "Miss, could you send

off with sothing?"

Xiang Qin was slightly startled.

Ye Qichi leaned close to Xiang Qin’s ear and whispered.

Xiang Qin’s smile deepened, she quickly turned around to fetch sothing and handed it to Ye Qichi.

Ye Qichi tucked it into his bosom and expressed his thanks.

Turning around, her footsteps sowhat unsteady, she said to Gu Xingchuan, "Hey, taking you ho."

Gu Xingchuan opened his eyes to look at Ye Qichi.

Right now his vision was blurry; he couldn’t see the person in front very clearly, only that she was dazzlingly beautiful.

He murmured, "There actually exists such beauty in this world..."

Ye Qichi smiled a little.

This guy was honest when drunk.

She stooped down to help Gu Xingchuan to his feet.

Gu Xingchuan, groggy, sohow followed Ye Qichi’s steps.

"The young masters should walk carefully." Xiang Qin saw them to the door.

Watching their receding figures, her eyes tightened.

She couldn’t help but look down at the bloodstain on her hand; once the bloodstain spread over her fingers, she would die from the poison.

And every day before the onset of the poison, the organization would send an antidote.

But if one betrayed the organization, or beca useless to it, they would be left to die from the poison.

Two more days.

Right now, all assassins from the Ten Extres Sect are waiting for that antidote.

Or rather, waiting for judgent!

Xiang Qin covered the bloodstain on her hand.

Who exactly is this woman?!

...

Ye Qichi supported Gu Xingchuan, the two of them staggering out of the brothel.

No sooner had they exited the entrance than...

"Miss!" Lu You shouted with a sobbing voice, calling out to her loudly.

Ye Qichi turned her head to look at the almost crying Lu You, and asked with a hint of alcohol on her breath, "Lu You, why are you here?!"

"You’re asking ?" Lu You was so frustrated she wanted to stamp her feet.

They had agreed to wait in the carriage, but after waiting for a long ti with no sign of her, they went to the dical hall and no one knew where she had gone, which terrified her and Xiao Wu to the point they hurriedly searched the streets.

Just as they reached the entrance to the brothel, they saw "the young man" eerily resembling the Princess and the handso head of the dical hall staggeringly coming out... If the two weren’t so outstanding and noticeable, she wouldn’t have been able to spot them at a glance!

Seeing the way they were entangled in an unclear manner now, she was so anxious her hair seed to fly off her head.

For the Princess to visit a brothel was already audacious, but now she’s tangled up with a man in public...

If the Prince found out, Lu You could already imagine exactly how the Princess would et her end!
