Transmigration: Experiencing Life's End - Dying Peacefully in One's Sleep

Chapter 289 A Moment's Thought Across Mountains and Rivers 8

Chu Yuebai looked at his hand, and when she saw the little figure on his palm that looked very much like herself, the smile on her face froze.

"Did you carve this?" She was laughing at others last night, and now it's her turn to be the one doing it?

Qian Zhao nodded, looking somewhat expectant: "Yes!"

Seeing his expression, Chu Yuebai took it and said, "Thank you."

She glanced at it a few times and then tucked it into her sleeve: "I'm going to have breakfast!"

After saying that, she hurried forward, and Qian Zhao paused for a moment before following her.

Seeing them enter one after the other, Yu Shisan said, "Beauty Chu, why are you here with Old Qian?"

Chu Yuebai had regained her smile, found a seat, and said, "We met on the way."

Ren Ruyi smiled and turned to look at her, knowing better but saying nothing.

After breakfast, everyone left one after another, and Chu Yuebai also returned to her room.

After Yu Shisan watched her leave, he immediately leaned close to Qian Zhao and asked, "Old Qian, how's it going? Any progress with Miss Chu lately?"

Sun Lang and Yuan Lu, who were sitting nearby, exchanged a glance and pricked up their ears to listen.

Qian Zhao didn't speak, so Yu Shisan continued, "How about I teach you some methods that will definitely help you win over the beauty?"

“I remember she didn’t fall for your tricks,” Qian Zhao said expressionlessly.

Yu Shisan choked for a moment, then laughed: "No one understands women better than me. You will need me."

"We'll see, there's no need for that now," Qian Zhao said, reflecting on their time together.

"Then I'll wait for you to come find me!" Yu Shisan patted his shoulder and said.

After listening to their conversation, Yuanlu asked, "Brother Qian, you like Sister Yuebai?"

“Yuanlu, is there even a need to ask? Didn’t you just hear it? I never thought Old Qian would have this day!” Sun Lang said with a smile.

Qian Zhao glanced at them but didn't say anything, which was tantamount to acquiescence.

He doesn't know when it started, but he always paid attention to her. Maybe when you become curious about someone, you gradually start to like them.

“I noticed something was off about Lao Qian a long time ago; it’s just that you guys are slow to react,” Yu Shisan said with a smile.

Qian Zhao glanced at him, and Sun Lang sighed, "Ning has a girl he likes, and now Lao Qian has someone he likes too, leaving only the few of us all alone."

“Hey, I’m different from you two. You can’t find me, I’m just temporary!” Yu Shisan waved his hand and said.

“Yuanlu, I think your thirteenth brother is a bit itchy. Let’s stretch his muscles a bit,” Sun Lang said through gritted teeth.

Genroku smiled and said, "Okay!"

Yu Shisan patted his head: "What's so good about it? You're still young, don't worry. Your brother Lang is older, and he gets angry over just a little something."

"Old Yu, I think you're itching to speak too!" Sun Lang went over and subdued Yu Shisan, and Yuan Lu also went up to help.

Watching them playfully bicker, Qian Zhao stood up and walked outside.

Chu Yuebai returned to her room, holding the doll in her hand, looking at it again and again.

"Host, it looks exactly like you! So cute!" Xiao Qi said with a smile.

"It's cute, but I just laughed at someone, and then they made one of me right away, misunderstanding what I meant."

Xiao Qi seized on the key point: "Host, isn't it good that no one noticed you laughing at others!"

Chu Yuebai paused, then said, "What you said makes sense, so let's not dwell on it."

That day, Chu Yuebai was tidying up her things in her room when she heard a knock on the door. She got up to open it.

"Ruyi, why are you here?"

Ren Ruyi smiled and said, "I'm taking Your Highness and Yuanlu out for fun. Do you want to come?"

"Oh? Where are you going?" Chu Yuebai asked.

“You’ll see when you come with us; it’s a fun place,” Ren Ruyi said with a smile.

"Alright, let's go then!" With that, Chu Yuebai was about to close the door.

"Wait, you need to change into men's clothing!" Ren Ruyi said.

Chu Yuebai remembered the plot; she was supposed to be taking her to the Golden Sands Tower. She nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go change now."

As soon as she turned around, Ren Ruyi grabbed her again: "You don't have to change. Ning Yuanzhou took Qian Zhao to Jinsha Tower, let's go have some fun too."

Chu Yuebai smiled and said, "Okay, let's go like this then." She was too lazy to change.

She also wanted to experience the extravagant lifestyle of Jinsha Tower, where beautiful women were everywhere.

Inside the Jinsha Building, with its carved beams and painted rafters, where people were drunk and singing, Chu Yuebai and his companions entered.

Yuan Lu looked around, while Yang Ying looked surprised. Ren Ruyi said, "Calm down, go in and take your time."

Chu Yuebai smiled as she watched the performance: "Xiao Qi, I wish I could open a place like this, where I could drink every day and enjoy beautiful women and dances."

"Host, you can go to other worlds to drive it in the future!"

"Yes, write this in the plan."

"Sister Ruyi, wouldn't it be bad if we ran into Brother Yuanzhou and the others here?" Yang Ying asked.

Upon hearing this, Chu Yuebai smiled and said, "There's nothing wrong with it, we can come and have fun too."

“That’s right. I mentioned to him before that I would take you to a local restaurant to see what it’s like, and he didn’t object,” Ren Ruyi nodded.

Yuanlu said, "But it didn't say it would come now, nor did it say it was Jinsha Tower."

"Little Yuanlu, you can only broaden your horizons at Jinsha Tower. It's a great place," Chu Yuebai said, already enjoying the atmosphere.

Ren Ruyi laughed and looked at her, saying, "You've adapted quite well!"

Upon hearing this, Chu Yuebai simply smiled.

Ren Ruyi then looked at Yuan Lu: "Are they allowed to come and gather information, but we're not?"

“Yes, there’s nothing wrong with us coming here,” Yang Ying said.

As they spoke, the group had already reached the top, and someone stepped forward and said, "Welcome, gentlemen and ladies, to Jinsha Tower."

Ren Ruyi said, "I'll book a superior room!"

"Okay, please come in!" The receptionist led them inside.

Upon entering the inner room, Ruyi said, "Find us a few young ladies." She paused after saying this.

He looked at Chu Yuebai and said with a smile, "Find a few more young men to pour wine for this young lady."

"Okay, please wait a moment!"

Chu Yuebai smiled and sat down without saying anything.

"Host, you're quite used to visiting brothels and ordering companions now?"

"What's wrong with that? If I open my own business in the future, I'll have to cultivate a bunch of beauties and handsome men." Chu Yuebai poured herself a glass of wine and started drinking.

When the others came up, two teenagers were sitting next to her.

When one of them offered to massage her shoulders, she waved her hand and said, "Just pour me some wine."

She's okay with having someone pour her drinks, but she still doesn't like people getting too close.

"Miss, let's have a drink!" Another group of young men poured her a glass of wine and said.

Chu Yuebai picked up her wine glass, clinked it against his, and said, "Alright!"

She picked up her glass and drank it all in one gulp, then laughed as she looked at Genroku across from her, who was struggling to cope and was sweating profusely.

"Sister Yuebai, you're still laughing at me!" Yuanlu said when he saw her making fun of him.
