The book has no strength, the female supporting role just wants to survive

Kikyo walked out of the room nervously, only to see men in various clothes standing in the hall.

"This is...?"

Jiang Tunan put his arm around Kikyo's shoulder and waved to the men in front of him.

"Look, this is the treatment I carefully prepared for you."

Just when Kikyo was puzzled, Jiang Tunan continued to speak,

"I understand. You can't hide your love for one person. But if you like more than one person, you can hide it."

Platycodon:?

Xiao Mingxu:?

As soon as he finished speaking, the men in front of Kikyo lined up one by one and spoke one by one.

The first one was a man in white clothes and a silver mask on his face. He held a sword in his hand and had affection in his eyes.

He took a step forward and half-knelt in front of Kikyo.

"Even if there are thousands of troops, I will still move forward bravely to protect the one I love."

Kikyo seemed to be frightened and immediately went to help.

"How can you kneel down before me? Get up quickly."

Jiang Tunan shook his head regretfully.

"It seems this is not your type, next one."

The man in white tights walked away dejectedly, and then the next man in a plain dark green robe and a wooden mask came forward.

He first bowed his hands in greeting, and then slowly said,

"There is a beautiful woman. When you see her, you will never forget her. If you don't see her for a day, you will miss her like crazy."

Kikyo was a little embarrassed and hid behind Jiang Tunan.

"Miss Jiang, what are these?"

Jiang Tunan was puzzled.

"Don't like this type? Next one."

The second man also left dejectedly. The third man hurried forward, did a few backflips in front of them, and threw a few punches. Before he could even open his mouth, he was driven away by Jiang Tunan.

"You're making too much noise, next one."

Man: I didn’t make any sound!

Seeing that there were many men queuing behind, Kikyo hurriedly pulled Jiang Tunan aside.

"Miss Jiang, what do you mean?"

Jiang Tunan gave him a reassuring look.

"Don't worry, there are so many types, there is always one you like."

Kikyo lowered her head, feeling a little uncomfortable.

"I appreciate Miss Jiang's kindness, but I..."

"girl."

A pleasant male voice came to her ears. Kikyo turned her head and saw a man wearing a mask. He was wearing a cross-collared long gown, a wide-sleeved jacket, and a purple bamboo flute on his waist.

"I've heard that you are a great Pipa player. I wonder if I'll have the honor to play a piece with you today?"

Chunhua was very tactful and presented the pipa to Platycodon.

Kikyo took the pipa hesitantly, feeling a little embarrassed. Seeing Kikyo's expression, the man continued,

"Miss, don't think too much. I came here today just because I have long heard of Miss Kikyo's great name, and I came to ask for your advice. I will leave after the ensemble, and I will not disturb you too much."

Subtext: Sister, you see, I am different from them.

Kikyo looked lonely and gave a bitter smile.

"My skills are not as good as they used to be. I'm afraid I'll disappoint you."

The man chuckled.

"It's okay, just play it, and I need to think about how to harmonize it."

Kikyo's heart moved slightly, but she finally nodded in agreement. The moment she turned around, the man quickly wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, and his sleeve was covered with densely written lines.

Man: Fortunately, fortunately, this play was accepted.

Jiang Tunan gave Chunhua a wink, and Chunhua understood what he meant and walked to the side of Platycodon and put the music score on it.

The sound of the pipa gradually rose, then spread out like the tide, its sound was like weeping and complaining, sad and desolate. Qiu Niang curled her lips at the side.

"Which brothel has music like this? The guests are scared away when they hear it."

The man seemed intoxicated by Kikyo's music, closing his eyes and gently shaking his head.

After reaching a certain point, he suddenly opened his eyes, took out the flute from his waist, pressed it lightly with his fingers, and the sound of the flute poured out.

The sounds of the pipa and the flute complement each other, penetrating people's eardrums and striking deep into their hearts.

After the song, the man bowed to express his gratitude. The masked men one, two, and three and the other masked men who had not yet appeared ran to the vicinity of Kikyo.

"Sister is so awesome!"

"Wow, I've never heard such a beautiful pipa."

"Can you teach me, sis? I really like it."

"Sister, let me show you how to break a stone with my chest!"

Kikyo felt a little embarrassed. When she was an oiran, she had heard such cheers before. But for some reason, she felt a little flattered by the praise today.

Is it because she hasn't been praised for too long?

"Okay, don't bother Miss Kikyo anymore!"

Jiang Tunan suddenly shouted, and the rest of the people fell silent and looked at her in confusion.

Jiang Tunan looked deeply apologetic and walked forward step by step.

"It was my fault today. I didn't expect that Miss Kikyo had such deep feelings for Sakai Taro. Even with so many of you, Miss Kikyo remained calm! Go away. You are not needed here anymore."

Kikyo, who is surrounded by all kinds of men and enjoying the 360-degree praise from all angles, said: What Sakai?

At Jiang Tunan's command, all the men immediately put away their expressions and walked out with a look of regret on their faces, saying "What a pity."

"Wait...wait a minute."

Kikyo was a little stunned and subconsciously reached out to stop him, but a scroll of portrait was placed on her palm.

Platycodon:?

"Miss Kikyo, I know you're thinking about Sakai Taro. This is his portrait. I found it especially for you."

When Kikyo heard that it was a portrait of Sakai, she was somewhat moved. She raised the scroll higher, untied the rope, and the portrait instantly appeared in front of Kikyo.

Small eyes, flat nose, some fat on the face, and a bit of vulgarity in the eyes. This is indeed Taro Sakai, but why does he look much uglier?

Kikyo was so frightened that she closed the scroll immediately. It was an illusion, it must be an illusion.

"Originally they had prepared a program for you, but they didn't expect you to be so affectionate..."

Jiang Tunan's voice came from the side slowly, and Kikyo thought, in fact, I don't like Sakai Taro that much, did Jiang Tunan misunderstand something?

"Miss Jiang..."

"Kikyo, you don't have to say anything, I understand you!"

Kikyo: No, you don’t understand.

"Hurry up, those behind you. What are you doing dawdling?"

Jiang Tunan seemed dissatisfied with the speed at which the masked men left, and urged them to leave.

Kikyo thought for only a moment, then stuffed the scroll into Jiang Tunan's arms and said with a firm look in his eyes,

"Miss Jiang, I think I need to clarify something today..."

After a while, the hall was filled with laughter again. Seeing Kikyo's heartfelt smile (?), Xiao Mingxu was puzzled and quietly walked to Jiang Tunan and asked,

"Cousin, where did you get so many masked men?"

Jiang Tunan answered casually,

"The restaurant next door has a discount for group purchases, and the whole place only costs fifty taels. You are the inspiration for me."

Xiao Mingxu was shocked. When did Jiang Tunan become a bad guy?

"Cousin! You actually went to look for a prostitute?! I know, it was Qiu Niang!"

Xiao Mingxu was furious and was about to go find Qiu Niang to settle the score. At this time, Kikyo sneaked over and asked Jiang Tunan,

"Miss Jiang, can I take off their masks?"

"I advise you not to."

Kikyo was puzzled, so she took off a person's mask. After seeing the face under the mask, she was stunned for a long time, and then put the mask back on silently.

It’s better to wear a mask.

Today she finally understood that the word "handsome" was used to describe a feeling rather than appearance.

Xiao Mingxu was originally looking for Qiu Niang to settle the score, questioning her why she led Jiang Tunan astray, but he didn't expect that Jie Geng, who was the center of attention, burst into tears.

Xiao Mingxu:?

Jiang Tunan: "Miss Kikyo, you...?"

Platycodon gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, her eyes were full of resentment.

"I was thinking about what a hard life I had lived."
