Sir Song, do you want to pledge yourself to me?

Three young masters in their prime walked on the street, attracting many people's attention, but when they saw them enter Wushuang Building, they were met with contempt.

The manager of Wushuang Tower, Master Yaoyue, has a gentle appearance and is very good at dealing with people.

The three distinguished guests were immediately distinguished. Each one was dressed in splendid attire, and their every gesture exuded a sense of affluence. The young man in the middle, dressed in moon-white, was particularly striking. His peach-shaped eyes revealed a romantic and affectionate spirit, making him a man who could lavishly spend vast sums on a beautiful woman.

So he walked up to them with a smile and led them to the seat with the best view.

"You three distinguished guests, it's truly a blessing to arrive early," Yao Yue said with a sweet smile, her voice soft and melodious. "Later, we'll be holding an election for a new top performer at Wushuang Tower. You can enjoy tea while admiring the talents of the young masters. If you've taken a fancy to any of them, feel free to vote for a few trumpet creepers to show your support."

Ji Nuan's eyes flickered with interest. She gently waved her folding fan, her lips curled up. "Oh? Running for the new top star? That's quite interesting. Xiaoyao, Sprite, what do you think?"

Xiaoyao Jian squinted at Yaoyue with a sharp gaze. Yaoyue's androgynous features looked even more enchanting under the light. She parted her red lips and said with a hint of joking and pride, "Young Master Yaoyue, why don't you prepare a hundred trumpet creepers? Our young master is the most compassionate and would hate to see any of you neglected."

Yao Yue's eyes lit up, it was indeed very generous!

You know, trumpet creepers cost ten taels of silver each, so a hundred of them would be a full thousand taels! And there were several lush trumpet creepers growing in the backyard of Wushuang Building, making them easy to pick. It was practically like getting silver delivered to your door!

"Young Master Wang is so generous! Wushuanglou will do its best to satisfy you." Yao Yue smiled softly, secretly pleased with her ability to judge people.

Ji Nuan smiled lightly, that smile carrying a hint of cynicism and unfathomable depth: "Well, find two more young gentlemen under the age of fifteen who are well-behaved to accompany you."

Xue Bi interjected, "I've seen that young man named Liu Ying before. He's very well-behaved, exactly the type that Young Master Wang likes. Young Master Yao Yue, why don't you call him over? As long as you serve Young Master Wang well, you'll naturally receive the reward."

Yao Yue's face showed a trace of embarrassment. He bit his thin lip lightly, as if making a difficult decision. "Liu Ying is still young and hasn't learned the rules yet. I'm afraid I won't be able to serve her well and may even offend our distinguished guest. How about Yao Yue recommend someone else for your distinguished guest?"

"Xue Bi knows what I like best. She said that Young Master Liu Ying is good, so she must be right." Ji Nuan gently shook the folding fan in her hand, took out a gold ingot and placed it on the table, a smile that could not be refused appeared on the corner of her mouth, "Young Master Yao Yue, let's have someone call Liu Ying out."

Yao Yue was startled by Ji Nuan's look and felt that this young master was not someone to be trifled with.

He put away the gold ingot and forced a smile, "Since Prince Wang is so insistent, Yao Yue will arrange it right away."

After seeing Yao Yue leave, Xiaoyao Jian glanced at Ji Nuan and said, "This whole expense must have cost several thousand taels of silver. Miss Ziyu can't save that much money, so you're willing to be the one who takes it for granted?"

Ji Nuan said with a cynical smile, "That depends on whether the gentlemen of Wushuang Tower are attractive enough to me! If they can really make my heart flutter, then what does a few thousand taels of silver mean to me?"

Xiaoyao Jian even regretted having someone notify Song Jinbai. He was really afraid that Ji Nuan would become addicted to acting and wouldn't be able to stop. If Song Jinbai thought about canceling the engagement, that would be a sin.

"Hey, don't pretend to be a man and think you are a real man," Xiaoyao Jian couldn't help but remind him, "You should restrain yourself in this Wushuang Building and be careful not to get too arrogant."

"Don't worry, I know my limits!" Ji Nuan leaned forward, hooked her arms around Xiaoyao Jian and Xuebi's necks, and whispered in their ears, "Do you know? Liuying suffers from pig-like illness. If she had an attack in public, it would be a very interesting scene."

Upon hearing this, the two of them widened their eyes and looked at Ji Nuan in astonishment.

Then, Xiaoyao Jian lowered his eyes and seemed to be thinking about something.

Xue Bi opened her mouth wide and looked at Ji Nuan with suspicion, "Miss, Miss Ziyu didn't say he was sick, how did you know?"

Ji Nuan gently poked Xue Bi's head and smiled slyly: "Silly girl! If people knew that Liu Ying was sick, he would lose his value in Wushuang Tower. We only need to spend a small amount of silver to take him away."

Xiaoyao Jian raised his eyebrows and asked, "You want him to pretend to be sick?"

"Pretending to be sick is too easy to be seen through. Any doctor can tell it's a fake illness." Ji Nuan mysteriously took out a medicine bottle and shook it, "We'll use this."

Xue Bi's face showed a mixture of surprise and worry. "Drugging? Miss, Miss Ziyu trusts you so much that she handed her brother over to you. Isn't this a bit unkind?"

Ji Nuan gently patted Xue Bi's shoulder. "What are you imagining? Don't you trust me that much? This medicine won't harm the body at all. It will only temporarily make Liu Ying have the symptoms of Zhu Po Feng. In a few breaths, he will faint and won't suffer too much." As she spoke, she took out a small medicine bottle and handed it to Xue Bi. "Take the antidote, and after taking the man out, feed it to him yourself. That way, you can see with your own eyes whether he is really okay."

Xue Bi put away the antidote and put on a flattering smile on her face: "Miss, I knew you would know your limits. I was just worrying for no reason, please don't take it to heart."

Ji Nuan picked up a piece of lotus cake, stuffed it into Xuebi's mouth, and said with a smile: "Okay, eat your snack. Be smart and cooperate with me later. How much money you can save for Miss Ziyu depends on you."

At this moment, Yao Yue came over, leading a slender, delicate-looking young man. He stood aside and introduced him to Ji Nuan, Xiao Yao Jian, and Xue Bi, saying, "Master Wang, I've brought him to you. Do you think he's satisfactory?"

The young man timidly saluted the three men, his voice as thin as a mosquito.

Ji Nuan looked at him carefully. He had delicate features and was indeed good-looking, but his figure was a little thin and lacked some masculinity.

"Mr. Liuying?"

"My little slave is here." The young man responded obediently, with a hint of imperceptible resistance in his voice.

Ji Nuan smiled frivolously, "You are so pitiful. Come and sit next to me."

The young man was stiff and didn't move. Yao Yue quietly pushed him from behind, and he came over reluctantly.

Seeing this, Sprite quickly gave up her seat to him and sat next to Xiaoyao Jian.

"Master Yaoyue, go and do your work. I will take good care of little Firefly."

Ji Nuan sent Yao Yue away, then leaned forward, gently touched the boy's cheek with her fingertips, and whispered, "Zhao Fengnian?"

The boy's eyes flickered, as if he was surprised by Ji Nuan's address. But he quickly regained his composure and lowered his head obediently.

Ji Nuan whispered in his ear, "Don't be afraid. Zi Yu asked us to redeem you."
