Being an emperor is not something he can do, so he can only rely on his connections.

Every time Ningxiang appears, it's like she has her own special effects, making people stop and watch for a while. Even with Ma Tianmao's financial resources, he can't afford to invite such a courtesan, so Zhang Jingwei only needs to inform her.

Ma Tianmao said to Zhang Jingwei with a playful smile, "Brother Jingwei, after careful consideration, I have made up my mind. From now on, every time I go to that brothel, I must ask you to come along!"

When Zhang Jingwei heard this, he quickly waved his hand and refused, "Oh my, please don't, please don't, brother. I have a family now, and I can't go to places like that all day like you!"

Ma Tianmao didn't take it seriously and continued teasing, "Hey, that courtesan has a special liking for you, and I happen to be in love with that courtesan. Plus, I'm one of your shareholders. Tsk tsk tsk, tell me, isn't this a great thing?"

Zhang Jingwei frowned and advised seriously, "Brother Tian Miao, we can't indulge in these fun things all day long. It will make people lose their fighting spirit. We should focus on the real things!"

However, Ma Tianmao refused to give in. He winked and retorted, "Hey, stop pretending to be serious! Back then, when you were completely drunk, you kept yelling for money!"

Zhang Jingwei's eyes widened immediately, and he shouted angrily, "Bullshit! When did I ever ask you for a flower ticket? Don't lie!"

Ma Tianmao crossed his arms and said smugly, "Humph, it was that time when you were drunk last time. I was so kind back then and wrote you a voucher! And now, after you sobered up, you turned your back on me!"

Hearing this, Zhang Jingwei suddenly slapped his forehead as if awakening from a dream, muttering to himself, "That flower ticket...so that's what it was! Flower ticket...issuing an invoice...I finally understand! I drank too much that day and completely blacked out. In my daze, I even mistook that place for Shang K."

The courtesan walked into the private room with graceful steps. However, surprisingly, the entrance to the room was already packed with people eager to catch a glimpse of the courtesan's beauty.

At this moment, Ma Tianmao was sitting in the east seat (C) of the private room, his face full of obsession, his eyes fixed on Ningxiang. Meanwhile, Zhang Jingwei, with a smile on his face, gently waved towards Ningxiang and said, "Miss Ningxiang, please pour wine for Master Ma!"

Hearing this, Ningxiang nodded slightly and replied, "Yes!" Then she walked to the table gracefully, picked up the wine jug and began to pour wine for Ma Tianmao.

At this moment, Ma Tianmao suddenly laughed foolishly and shouted loudly: "Reward!" As soon as he finished speaking, a servant behind him quickly took out a silver note from his pocket and handed it respectfully to the maid next to Ningxiang.

Zhang Jingwei took a closer look and saw that the maid was actually Xiaoying! Zhang Jingwei pointed at Xiaoying and said in a serious tone: "You, come out with me!"

Xiaoying first glanced at Ningxiang, then said softly: "Miss, I will go out with Master Zhang for a while!"

When Ningxiang heard this, a look of displeasure appeared on her face, but she nodded helplessly to show her agreement.

Seeing this scene, Ma Tianmao couldn't help but burst into laughter and teased, "Brother Jingwei, I didn't expect your taste to become so unique now! Hahahaha!"

Facing Ma Tianmao's ridicule, Zhang Jingwei didn't care at all. He just responded calmly: "The wine poured by the courtesan herself for you, isn't that enough to shut you up?"

……

Xiaoying is very short, even shorter than Huangfu Ling's personal maid. She has a cute and tender face, but a pair of deep eyes.

The two of them were staring at each other in an empty room. Zhang Jingwei frowned at Xiaoying without saying a word. Xiaoying was frightened by his look and didn't dare to look up at him.

Not long after, Xiaoying still raised her head slightly, looked at Zhang Jingwei in front of her, and asked softly: "What does Master Zhang want to ask?"

Zhang Jingwei frowned and asked in confusion, "Aren't you guys going to retreat? Why are you still here?"

Sakura folded her hands in front of her and replied, "I'm waiting for my senior from the academy to pick me up!" Her voice was clear and firm.

After hearing this, Zhang Jingwei raised the corners of his mouth and said sarcastically, "Oh, what's the matter? Are you elementary school students? You can't go home without an adult to pick you up after school, right?"

Sakura bit her lip and retorted, "I just turned eighteen today." After she finished speaking, a hint of stubbornness appeared in her eyes.

Zhang Jingwei burst into laughter and said disdainfully, "What nonsense! You're only eighteen years old, and you look like a little kid with a broken nose. And you're still pretending to be an adult?"

Sakura's face flushed with anger as she shouted, "Just talk, please don't insult me!"

Just when the two were at a stalemate, the door was suddenly pushed open and the madam walked in, twisting her waist. She said to Zhang Jingwei with a smile on her face: "Oh, Master Zhang, this little girl is just an ignorant little maid. How about I arrange two top girls to serve you in bed, and I guarantee you will be satisfied!" As she said that, she did not forget to throw a seductive glance at Zhang Jingwei.

Zhang Jingwei waved his hand and said impatiently: "No, no..."

The madam's eyes rolled when she saw this, and then she said as if she suddenly understood, "Oh, I see. So Master Zhang likes virgins! But this little girl hasn't even been registered yet, so it's really hard to calculate the score!"

Before he finished speaking, Zhang Jingwei tossed out a silver note worth one hundred taels from his bosom and dropped it on the table. Seeing this, the madam's eyes instantly widened as big as copper bells. She hurriedly reached out and grabbed the note, then bowed repeatedly and smiled at Xiaoying, saying, "Hey, Xiaohong, since Young Master Zhang has taken a fancy to you, you must serve him well! I'll send someone to bring the fragrant soup in a while, so you must wash yourself clean!"

Zhang Jingwei raised his eyebrows slightly, and said with a lewd smile: "Really, no need, I just like the original flavor~"

The madam standing nearby immediately understood and nodded after hearing this, smiling widely and saying, "I understand. Master Zhang, please enjoy your meal slowly." After that, she tactfully withdrew.

A young-looking tea girl came in, holding an incense burner, and asked softly, "Master Zhang, would you like to burn some incense?"

Zhang Jingwei answered without hesitation: "Burn it! But after you leave, remember to remove the bartender guarding the door. I don't like anyone interrupting or eavesdropping!"

The tea girl quickly replied, "Yes!" Then, she turned and walked out the door. Just as she was about to step over the threshold, the tea girl turned back and smiled at Sakura, who was sitting on the bed. Sakura saw this and instantly smiled innocently in response. The two girls seemed to have a tacit understanding between them that only they understood.
