Chen Lang sat down by the window and glanced towards the stage.

The girl who appeared on stage at this moment was too young, probably just over the age of 15, and her performance was quite awkward.

Although some old men like this, Chen Lang was not interested. He turned to look at Wang Junyuan and said, "What story do you want to hear?"

Wang Junyuan said: "Monkey..."

"Hasn't the Black Myth finished?" Chen Lang said.

Wang Junyuan felt a little aggrieved: "I don't like that ending. The Great Sage has gathered all the spiritual roots and destiny people. Why doesn't he go to the Heavenly Court to avenge Fourth Sister?"

"Brother Chen, I think you haven't finished yet. Can you please continue?"

Chen Lang thought, it’s not that I didn’t finish telling the story, but when I traveled through time, Heimalo had only released the main body, but no DLC.

"The Black Myth is indeed finished." Chen Lang cleared his throat and said, "Let me tell you another love story of a great sage."

"The Monkey King?" Wang Junyuan immediately threw the fate man out of his mind and said excitedly, "Yes, yes, I like the Monkey King."

Chen Lang said, "It's said that the Great Sage helped Tang Sanzang to obtain Buddhist scriptures from the West, but because he couldn't stand Tang Sanzang's nagging, he joined forces with the Great Sage Pingtian, the Bull Demon King, and planned to eat Tang Sanzang's flesh."

"After learning of this, the Heavenly Court dispatched Guanyin Bodhisattva to capture the Great Sage. Just as the Great Sage was about to be subdued, Tang Sanzang expressed his willingness to exchange his life for another's. So the Heavenly Court arranged for the Great Sage to be reincarnated as a bandit named Zhizunbao..."

At this time, a woman came to the bottom of the teahouse and raised her head to look at Chen Lang who was sitting by the window.

After a moment, the woman disappeared into the crowd.

……

The seating area behind the stage.

Pang Qiuyan took off her bra and collapsed on the bed with her upper body naked, enjoying a rare moment of relaxation.

Although the performance has not yet started, she still has to socialize everywhere.

She has to take care of both the talented man and the financial sponsor, and also try her best to weaken the anger caused by jealousy on both sides. Things like what happened to Lin Meir must never happen.

Mediating the relationship between the two parties is more laborious than performing a dance.

Pang Qiuyan went out just now to deal with Ning Zhongce.

Although he lost the title of Linshui's number one talent, he was still among the top talents in Linshui, and was the one that Pang Qiuyan needed to win over and appease.

After dealing with Ning Zhongce, she didn't need to deal with any other guests. Until half an hour before the performance, it all belonged to Pang Qiuyan.

She could use some rest.

"Miss, please put on your clothes to avoid catching a cold." The maid walked up to Pang Qiuyan with clothes and said anxiously.

Pang Qiuyan glanced at the bra on the bedside table and said, "This thing is good in every way. The only bad thing is that it's stuffy."

"Especially as the weather gets hotter, it becomes a bit uncomfortable to wear it all day long."

The maid said, "Miss, since it's so bad, just don't wear it anymore."

Pang Qiuyan sighed, "If I don't wear it, it's uncomfortable to hang on to, especially when I'm dancing. Without it, my chest hurts when I swing it."

"More importantly, when I wear this, those stinky men out there won't look at me the same way anymore."

"My mother was right. If you want to be respected in front of others, you will suffer behind their backs."

"Besides, wearing a bra isn't really a hardship. It's just a minor problem, I can get over it with a little bit of grit."

"Let's not talk about this anymore. Go get something to eat. I'm starving."

The maid hurriedly brought a plate of cakes.

Pang Qiuyan put on her clothes and was about to reach out to take it when a pair of white and tender hands reached out from the side and snatched the plate away.

"The performance is about to begin. If you eat this and drink some water, you'll probably throw it up while you dance."

"Go, pour your lady a cup of hot water."

Pang Qiuyan raised her head and said aggrievedly, "Sister Qinghuan, can you just have one piece? I'm really hungry."

Xie Qinghuan said, "I invited Master Chen here for you. If you eat too much of this piece because of greed and end up vomiting on stage, Master Chen won't be able to praise you even if he wants to."

"Although Young Master Ning Zhongce Ning also works very hard, in terms of talent, he is far inferior to Young Master Chen. His poems are naturally not as effective as Young Master Chen's words."

Pang Qiuyan snorted, "Ning Zhongce, he just wants to get back at me, he's not really doing this for me."

"Besides, I don't want to be an oiran. Being the head of a troupe is fine."

"Once you become an oiran, your fate is truly beyond your control. You either marry someone immediately or redeem yourself."

"But the price of redeeming the courtesan...I'm afraid it will be several times higher."

Xie Qinghuan said, "From what you said, it seems that I was wrong to help you? Then I will let Master Chen go back now."

Pang Qiuyan quickly pulled Xie Qinghuan to her side and said flatteringly, "Sister, I was just talking nonsense, please don't be angry."

"Besides, as long as Master Chen doesn't write a poem specifically for me and just praises me a few words, he won't make me the most popular courtesan."

Xie Qinghuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and nodded Pang Qiuyan's head: "You."

Pang Qiuyan pulled Xie Qinghuan to sit down and said, "Sister, I have something I want to ask you."

"Why did you hit Yao Jianxin?"

"He's returned home in glory. In a few days, he'll be taking up his post as magistrate in Michuan County. His future is bright. If you embarrass him, what will you do if he retaliates against you?"

Xie Qinghuan said, "The fight has already begun. What's the point of dwelling on this?"

"He wouldn't hire someone to kill me, would he?"

"Also, the two guards that the building has found for me now are very loyal. They won't be like the previous ones who took money and then betrayed me."

Pang Qiuyan said, "Mr. Chen is really great for you. He takes such good care of you."

"But my sister still didn't answer me. Why did you hit Yao Jianxin?"

Xie Qinghuan said calmly, "It's nothing, actually. It's just that what he said at that time made me uncomfortable. Later, he even wanted to hit me, so I... I know he's a good person and talented, but when it comes to fate, there's no such thing as fate."

Pang Qiuyan asked, "Sister Qinghuan, could it be that your destiny is Master Chen?"

Xie Qinghuan said angrily: "What nonsense, Mr. Chen is my boss, and he also has a family, how could we be destined to be together?"

"What's wrong with having a family? I don't believe there are no men in this world who don't cheat."

"Hmph, if I get the chance in the future, I'll definitely seduce him and see if he's really as...honest as my sister says he is."

Xie Qinghuan hurriedly said, "Don't do anything stupid."

Pang Qiuyan chuckled and said, "Sister, you're anxious."

At this time, the maid ran in hurriedly, panting and said, "Miss, there is a fire outside, hurry up and pack up, we have to move."

Pang Qiuyan was stunned for a moment, "Where is the fire?"

The maid said, "Over on the west terrace, a large area of sheds are on fire, and the fire is coming towards us."

The two looked outside and saw a sea of fire.

Pang Qiuyan said anxiously, "There's nothing to pack. Let's go now."

Xie Qinghuan said: "Mr. Chen..."

Pang Qiuyan said, "Oh, Master Chen is a grown man, he can definitely run faster than us, let's go quickly, sister."

Chen Lang, who was worried about Xie Qinghuan, not only did not run away, but ran towards the fire scene.

But he wasn't there to put out the fire...
