Time Travel: Brothel Maid

Chapter 19: The Mercenary Villain

"Who is it! What are you doing?" Xiao Guoer stood up suddenly, her eyes wide open as if fire was about to burst out of them, and she shouted at the top of her voice.

She only saw a few figures of men and women chasing each other in front of her, but no one turned back to answer her questions.

Hey! You can't treat her as air!

She was filled with rage and she quickly caught up with the people in front of her. Only then did she see clearly that there were four of them in total.

Two men and two women, judging from their clothing and behavior, they should be two masters and two servants.

The young lady and her maid walked in front. The young lady wiped the tears that kept rolling down her eyes and walked out in a hurry.

The maidservant who followed closely beside her kept comforting her young lady softly: "Young lady, don't be sad, the master will definitely make the decision for you."

The young lady just shed tears and did not respond.

The man who was one step behind caught up and rushed forward, finally stopping the young lady who was crying.

"Why are you so angry? I took that pretty girl into my house to serve as a maid only because I felt sorry for her. I never touched her. She is not as bad as you say."

"I know that Brother Rong has long lost his patience with me. I don't have any other woman who can please Brother Rong. Can't I just leave now?"

It turned out to be a love story between an infatuated man and a resentful woman.

The man and woman in front of me, the man is handsome and the woman is beautiful, quite pleasing to the eye.

But what does this have to do with her! And what does this have to do with the innocent pork elbow!

No matter how good-looking you are, you can't be arrogant and waste food!

"Hey, hey, hey, who bumped into me just now? Who knocked over my elbow?"

Xiao Guoer interrupted the conversation between the handsome man and the beautiful woman, and they both looked at her with frowns.

Tsk, what are you looking at! If you don't want to be disturbed, just pay the money!

The man's follower sensed his master's displeasure and immediately stepped forward to send away the uninvited guest with a scar on his face.

"What are you doing? Get out of here!"

Hey, I have such a bad temper!

Are these ancient people all sick in the brain?

"Compensate me for the pork elbow!" Xiao Guo'er, who could no longer bear it, opened his eyes wide and yelled at the top of his lungs.

This voice was as loud as thunder, shocking everyone present.

The follower who was originally aggressive now stood there in a daze, at a loss as to what to do.

The beautiful lady stopped crying and looked at Xiao Guoer in astonishment, as if she had never seen such a fierce person. She seemed to have no worries about food and clothing all her life, and she really couldn't understand why someone would go crazy for a pork elbow.

The follower Shen Jing was stunned for a moment and then immediately came to his senses. He was secretly annoyed. He didn't expect that he was frightened by the yelling of a young boy. It was really a great shame and humiliation!

A hand as big as a palm-leaf fan grabbed Xiao Guoer's slender arm like a pair of pliers, and then dragged her out of the door with force.

Seeing this, Xiao Guoer was not afraid at all and jumped up from the ground.

She opened her throat and shouted with all her might, "Someone, come and see! Someone is going to commit murder in the street! Someone is going to kill someone!"

His voice was so sharp that it seemed to be able to pierce the clouds and shatter the roof.

It was a busy time in the city, and the streets were crowded with people. The originally noisy and bustling environment suddenly became silent.

People stopped to watch, and soon a large number of enthusiastic people quickly gathered like a tide to watch the fun.

"What happened?" "That child looked so pitiful. How dare this man kill someone in broad daylight?"

From time to time, waves of questioning and condemnation were heard from the crowd.

Xiao Guoer had no intention of stopping and continued to yell at the top of her voice: "Someone is hitting someone, come and help me, uncles and aunts, please give me some justice!" Her voice became louder and louder, echoing throughout the street.

Shen Jing was at a loss for a moment. This guy was such a scoundrel.

Zhao Yunrong was so angry that veins popped out on his forehead. He gritted his teeth and really wanted to slap this shameless man to death.

Xie Mengwan looked at the increasing number of onlookers with horror on her face, feeling both afraid and regretful.

The young lady, who had been pampered since childhood, had never seen such a situation.

She secretly complained that she really shouldn't have come out to look for Brother Rong today. What should she do now?

Zhao Yunrong protected Xie Mengwan behind him, and looked coldly at Xiao Guoer who was jumping up and down while being caught by Shen Jing, with a flash of murderous intent.

We can't really kill him in public.

"How do you want compensation?" Zhao Yunrong spoke patiently, biting his back teeth.

The surroundings were filled with noise and bustle. The man's voice was clear and chilling, and although it was not loud, it had an inexplicable penetrating power. Every word was clearly heard by Xiao Guo'er.

Just as he was about to answer, he heard the man gnashing his teeth and saying, "Send these people away first, and I'll pay you whatever you want."

She then signaled Shen Jing to let go of her arm.

Tch, everyone go away and then beat me up?

Xiao Guo'er was not that stupid. When she was about to refuse, she suddenly met the man's eyes. The man's eyes were like a sharp blade, stabbing at her fiercely and fiercely.

Oh my god, why is he so fierce!

Xiao Guoer couldn't help but tremble in her heart and swallowed her saliva.

In broad daylight, he shouldn't dare to do anything to her, right? Never mind, it's better not to take the risk.

"Alright, alright, it's just a misunderstanding. Let's all go away."

The people who had been watching the excitement were greatly disappointed. They shook their heads and sighed, cursing under their breath as they walked away.

Are you kidding me? You're crazy!

When everyone had left, Xiao Guoer's expression adjusted again, revealing a money-loving and mercenary look.

"How did you say you were going to compensate me?"

Zhao Yunrong looked at the mercenary villain in front of him with disgust, as if he didn't want to get entangled with him any more. "How do you want compensation? Name a price."

Xiao Guoer's eyes rolled. This man was dressed luxuriously and had an extraordinary temperament. He must be a noble young man from aristocratic family. She had some ideas in her mind and a cunning look flashed in her eyes, but she pretended to be annoyed on her face.

"I didn't even have a bite of my lunch because you guys ruined it all. And your follower is so unreasonable. My arm is still numb from being grabbed by him. You have to give me some compensation for mental damage..."

Before Xiao Guoer could finish her words, a silver note was suddenly handed to her, interrupting her chattering.

Xiao Guoer took it and when she saw that the amount on the note was five hundred taels, she was so shocked that her mouth slightly opened and she temporarily lost her ability to speak.

Wow, this guy is really generous, he spent 500 taels! Her pork elbow is only half a dollar. This money is enough to compensate her for a whole truckload of pork elbows.

Seeing his surprised look at the money, Zhao Yunrong felt a trace of contempt in his heart, and snorted disdainfully, "What? Not enough?"

Xiao Guoer finally found her voice and nodded repeatedly with a flattering look.

"Enough, enough. The young master is truly a man of heaven, and the young lady is also as beautiful as a fairy. You two are truly a match made in heaven. I have been blind and have disturbed the affairs of the nobles. I deserve death. I will disappear now. I wish you two a happy marriage, eternal love, and a son soon."

After receiving the money, Xiao Guoer's mouth became as sweet as honey, and nice words came out of her mouth as if they were free.

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Guoer turned around and left impatiently, his steps hurried at an astonishing speed.

In the blink of an eye, only a figure walking away was left, as if afraid that the generous sucker would suddenly change his mind.

The figure was thin, and in her panic it seemed that her left foot tripped over her right foot. She stumbled and almost fell on her back. Fortunately, she reached out to hold the wall next to her in time. After stabilizing her body, she quickly disappeared without looking back.

Xiao Guoer, who disappeared, did not see the subtle yet wonderful changes in the expressions of the people present after she just said that.

Xie Mengwan had a shy look on her face, with a hint of blush spreading across her originally frightened pale face, making her look like a timid little girl.

Zhao Yunrong felt a headache and his face turned pale. How could there be such a talkative and noisy person in the world? He really wanted to kill him to vent his hatred!

Shen Jing looked at Zhao Yunrong, then at Xie Mengwan, and sighed secretly.

Zhao Yunrong took a deep breath and then spoke slowly, "The crazy words of the shameless villain should not be listened to. Sister Wan does not need to take it to heart. It is not safe outside after all. There are villains everywhere. I'd better send Sister Wan home."

Xie Mengwan was too embarrassed to look up and just nodded in response.

Along the way, no one spoke a word, and Shen Jing felt that the atmosphere was strangely awkward.

Finally they arrived at the gate of Xie's house. Xie Mengwan wanted to say something several times but hesitated. She was too shy to speak. There were some things that a girl like her should not say.

Brother Rong was not so dull in the past, why has he become so unromantic now?

"Wanmei, please come in quickly."

Xie Mengwan hesitated, gritted her teeth, and finally mustered up the courage to ask, "Brother Rong, you once said that you would only marry one person in your life, and only love one person, and would never take a concubine. Is it true?"

Zhao Yunrong looked at the lady from a famous family in front of him, his eyes flickering, revealing an extremely shy yet expectant expression.

His eyes darkened and he answered ambiguously, "When have I ever said anything that was false?"

Xie Mengwan got the answer and said happily, "Brother Rong is trustworthy and always keeps his word."

Zhao Yunrong kept smiling and did not comment.

"Come in quickly."

"Well, see you next time, Brother Rong."

Zhao Yunrong watched Xie Mengwan walk into the gate of Xie Mansion with cheerful steps, and the smile on his face immediately disappeared.

He turned around and walked away with big strides.

Shen Jing couldn't resist his curiosity and asked his master tentatively.

"When does Your Majesty plan to ask the Emperor for a marriage? I see that Miss Xie has a special liking for Your Majesty. If the Xie family helps, Your Majesty's chances of success will increase a bit."

Zhao Yunrong looked at him deeply and groaned, "Wait a little longer. The Xie family is a founding hero and a veteran of three dynasties. They are deeply trusted by my father and have disciples all over the court and the country. If I ask to marry the Xie family's crown prince, there will be advantages and disadvantages. If the matter is successful, although I can get the help of the Xie family, there is no guarantee that my father will not be suspicious."
