After Qiuyue finished playing a song, Chu Ci was about to go talk to the madam when a man stood up, walked to Qiuyue's side, reached out and pinched Qiuyue's chin, looking her up and down, as if waiting for a price.

The blink of an eye passed, and the man looked at the madam, "Mom, I want this woman, but I want to inspect her first. If she's genuine, we can negotiate the price."

After the man finished speaking, he held Qiuyue's shoulders and pulled the clothes on her shoulders with force. With a "hiss", the clothes on Qiuyue's shoulders were torn off completely.

Qiuyue covered her chest with her hands and looked at the man viciously, her desire to kill him becoming more and more intense.

But looking at the madam watching nearby, Qiuyue gritted her teeth and endured it.

Chu Ci felt very distressed when he saw this scene, but when he thought about what he was about to do, he clenched his fists and stood there without moving.

If you want to keep Qiuyue by your side, you have to use your brain. It would be a good idea to help her in times of need.

The man looked at Qiuyue's snow-white skin, moved closer, and kissed her on the bare chest.

Qiuyue raised her hand and was about to slap her, but the madam standing aside coughed heavily, and Qiuyue obediently took her hand back.

The man looked at Qiuyue with disdain, pinched Qiuyue's chin hard, shook it, and then slapped her hard.

"If you want to live a good life, then serve me well. If you are a dragon, coil up for me. If you are a tiger, lie down for me."

The man wiped his hands and looked at the madam. "It's barely acceptable, but it's tasty and wild. Tell me the price."

The madam looked at the man with eager eyes, "Sir, we haven't taken each other's virginity yet. Look at her figure and face. The price is not cheap." As the madam spoke, she would steal glances at the man from time to time, trying to test his bottom line on money.

Unexpectedly, the man didn't care at all. "You can say it, these are all trivial matters. As long as you dare to speak, I will never talk back."

The madam kept rubbing her hands together, and finally made up her mind and held up a finger. "One hundred thousand taels, sir. Our Miss Qiuyue is proficient in everything from music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, and songs. I have spent tens of thousands of taels on her training. Add to that food and clothing, and I don't have much left."

The man nodded and was about to agree when Chu Ci stood up and said, "Wait a minute, I'll offer two hundred thousand taels."

Everyone was stunned. Where did this fool come from? This must be the highest ransom.

Prince Rui looked at Chu Ci and grabbed her wrist. "Are you crazy? Why would you buy a prostitute? Do you still want to keep your reputation?"

Chu Ci directly shook off King Rui's hand and said, "She must be mine."

Chu Ci walked up to the madam and said, "I want her. I'll pay her two hundred thousand taels of silver."

When the man heard someone trying to snatch the item from him, he slapped the table next to him, and the table exploded into several pieces with a bang.

His eyes were red, and he wanted to attack Chu Ci as soon as he saw him. "Little thief, don't you see who your grandfather is? You still want to snatch people from me. Don't you even consider whether you are worthy of me?"

"Take her back. With your small body, you're not afraid of dying on her."

Chu Ci looked at Qiuyue, walked to her side, and said in his original voice beside her, "Tell me, do you want to follow me or him." After Chu Ci finished speaking, he glanced at the indignant man with disdain.

Qiuyue looked at Chuci in surprise, and a smile instantly blossomed on her face. She bowed slightly to Chuci and said, "I am willing to follow you."

"It's just that..." Qiuyue hesitated and didn't say the next words, "I still have something to hide."

Chu Ci thought about it and remembered that in the previous life, Qiuyue’s sister seemed to be still in the hands of the madam and had been poisoned.

This is also the reason why Qiuyue, despite her abilities, is willing to be kept here by the madam and is very obedient.

Chu Ci took out another 100,000 taels and said, "I'll add another 100,000 taels and take her sister away too."

The madam looked at Chu Ci suspiciously. Could this be fake? But considering that she was sitting with Prince Rui, she shouldn't be short of a few hundred thousand taels.

Chu Ci looked at the man provocatively, "What else do you have to say now?"

When the man saw Chu Ci take out another 100,000 taels, he thought Chu Ci was deliberately humiliating him. He took out all the banknotes on his body and threw them to the madam, "I'll give you 400,000 taels."

Chu Ci was about to speak, but Qiu Yue pulled her back and said, "My sister has a poison planted by the madam. It's used to control the girls here."

Chu Ci smiled faintly at her and shook his head, "It's okay!"

"I'll offer five hundred thousand taels, Mom. If you want to increase the price, I can give it to you, but you have to ask King Rui for the money. I'll see if you dare. As for the people, I'll take both of them."

Both the man and the madam fell silent, knowing that Chu Ci was using Prince Rui to pressure them.

The man glanced at King Rui and gritted his teeth. He was no match for him, whether in terms of power or money.

"You just need to move Prince Rui out. Otherwise, I will never give you this opportunity. I will give him to you." The man said, turned around and left.

Chu Ci let out a long sigh. If this still didn't work, she could only ask King Rui for help.

Chu Ci looked at Qiuyue and said, "Go pack up and bring your sister here so we can leave. I'll be waiting for you on the third floor."

The three people who had been watching the show on the third floor admired Chu Ci very much in their hearts.

Shangguan Xuan nudged Prince Rui with his elbow and said, "Little Ruirui, your little princess is courageous. I like that. She's probably the only one in the world who would spend 500,000 taels to buy a prostitute, and even give her a little burden as a gift."

"Fortunately, it wasn't my wife, otherwise my meager fortune wouldn't have lasted long."

Prince Rui glanced at him and said, "Stop dreaming. Go home and sleep. Dreams can bring you anything."

Chu Ci returned to the third floor and just sat down when Shangguan Xuan sat down beside her and asked, "Miss Chu, I wonder if there is anything special about Qiuyue that is worth spending 500,000 taels of silver on her."

Prince Rui pulled Shangguan Xuan back to his side and looked at Chu Ci. He also wanted to know.

Chu Ci smiled with relief. The people around her in her previous life were her obsession. "I'm missing a maid."

Shangguan Xuan was originally checking, but when Chu Ci said this, he couldn't help but blurt out, "As expected, we are not from the same family. You are all rich, and I am just a country bumpkin."
