Transmigrated Female Official
03 Completely different people
After breakfast the next day, Chu Qingluo came to Chu Yilin with a smile again.
"What is it now?" he asked her.
"I'd like to ask Second Brother to be my guide." Chu Qingluo continued with a playful smile. In the past, whenever there was a tricky matter, she would ask Momo for help with this kind of face, and it always worked.
Chu Yilin sighed softly, put down the book in his hand, and said, "Alright." She had often gone out with him before.
"Yes!" Chu Qingluo danced with joy, ready to embark on a day trip through ancient times! She affectionately stepped forward and took his hand: "Where shall we go first?" Her height was just below Chu Yilin's ear, and she quite enjoyed this petite and endearing height.
"Let's go to Yibinge first. You used to go there with me often." Chu Yilin thought that it might be able to awaken some of her memories.
"Okay! Wherever you say we'll go, we'll go!" She just wanted to cheer inside!
Yibin Pavilion is located in the most prosperous area of the capital, not far from the Chu residence. Chu Yilin led her there on foot, introducing the surrounding environment along the way.
The capital of the Ji Kingdom, Mingyan, was a city adorned with blooming flowers. The ratio of men to women was drastically different; there was almost only one woman for every dozen or so people. It was strange, considering that people in ancient times were generally shorter. She thought her current height was quite outstanding among ordinary people, but it turned out that both men and women in the Ji Kingdom were generally very tall.
Before, because she was tall, her pool of potential boyfriends was extremely limited. Now, on the other hand, everyone seems to be her boyfriend. Chu Qingluo felt a surge of secret satisfaction.
The well-dressed women were naturally surrounded by many men, while the women who looked relatively plain also had at least one or two male companions beside them. And now, she herself was surrounded by Chu Yilin, Jiuwei, and Tongmu, feeling like the center of attention.
"Why are there so few women?" This question had been troubling her for a long time.
Nine-Tailed Fox: "Legend has it that this land is cursed."
Tongmu: "That's not true! Women are sacred objects bestowed upon the Ji Kingdom by the gods, so they are naturally rare."
Chu Yilin: "Perhaps it's related to the water source."
Chu Qingluo nodded in agreement with Chu Yilin's point of view, saying that this statement was closer to science, while the other two were nonsense.
"Things are valued for their rarity! This place truly is a paradise for women." Chu Qinglu couldn't help but open her arms wide, welcoming the wonderful life that was hers.
"What?" None of the three men heard clearly.
"Hey, it's nothing."
Chu Yilin had no choice but to point to a two-story red building in front of him and said, "That's Yibin Pavilion."
The four of them had just reached the door when a waiter greeted them with a smile: "Miss Chu." He bowed respectfully to her, then turned to Chu Yilin and said, "Young Master Chu, the Seventh Prince has also arrived and is in a private room upstairs."
"Oh?" Ji Qiran was also there. He glanced at Chu Qingluo without making a sound. This number one handsome man in Yancheng might be able to stir up her memories.
He led Chu Qingluo up to the second floor, went straight to the innermost room, and knocked on the door: "Qi Ran, it's me."
"Please come in." A bright and pleasant voice came from inside the room.
Chu Qingluo then followed Chu Yilin inside, while Jiuwei and Tongmu stayed outside to wait.
Inside, a man dressed in blue stood by the window, a small wine cup in his hand. "Qingluo is here too," he greeted her first, his tone indifferent. In fact, he had already seen the four of them approaching from a distance.
Chu Qingluo's eyes lit up, and she quickly sized him up. This man had fair skin, bright eyes, a high nose bridge, and an imposing presence—definitely a super handsome guy! Judging by his height, he was between 185 and 188cm tall, with broad shoulders and no excess fat around his waist; he was a perfect clothes hanger. His appearance deserved a 99 out of 1; she'd give him one more point to avoid making him arrogant.
She has always liked handsome men, but she worries that she can't handle men who are too handsome, so she keeps her distance from them.
"Third sister, he is the seventh prince." Chu Yilin, who was standing to the side, deliberately reminded her when she didn't react.
"Oh, oh! Seventh Prince." Chu Qingluo then remembered that she should bow.
"...What's going on?" Does he need to introduce himself to her? Ji Qiran looked at Chu Yilin with a blank expression.
"Who knows? They say he bumped his head and lost his memory," Chu Yilin said helplessly.
Ji Qiran raised an eyebrow. Although she seemed no different from usual, there was something subtly different about her. But it was better that she didn't remember him; it would save her from bothering him all the time. Thinking this, he smiled slightly. "Please sit down."
Seeing Ji Qiran's expression, Chu Yilin knew what he was thinking. Just like himself, he didn't want to be tied down by any woman. Plus, they shared many similar ideals, which was why they got along so well. His younger sister, however, had always been infatuated with Ji Qiran, relentlessly pursuing the official examinations, because only with an official position could she invite him into her household. But Ji Qiran's heart wasn't with her, and he could only secretly worry for her.
"Wow—the food at Yibin Pavilion is so delicious!" Chu Qingluo didn't even notice that the two of them were secretly pondering something; she was only focused on enjoying the food. After saying that, she stuffed another piece of meat into her mouth.
She used to always maintain the air of a well-bred young lady, so Ji Qiran and Chu Yilin had never seen her so bold and unrestrained before, and they were both a little stunned.
"You guys eat too." It's no fun eating alone, so she simply started tearing the chicken apart with her hands.
Suppressing their shock, the two silently picked up their chopsticks.
Chu Qinglu ate the meat heartily, then poured herself a glass of wine: "Come on, let's clink glasses."
The two were surprised again, having never seen her drink before, but still raised their glasses in support.
"World peace. Cheers!" Mainly hoping for a smooth journey here, Chu Qingluo silently added in her mind, then downed her drink in one hearty gulp. "Wow, delicious." She was known as someone who could drink a thousand cups without getting drunk. He Yun and Momo once teamed up to try and get her drunk, but while they both passed out, she was completely unaffected.
She's naturally a big eater, and even as a model, she never restricted her diet, only exercising occasionally. She just hadn't expected her physique to result in such a small appetite; despite having so much delicious food in front of her, she couldn't eat a thing. "Ugh," she stammered, feeling a bit nauseous. Thankfully, she has a good alcohol tolerance.
Chu Qingluo thoroughly enjoyed her meal, but the two people beside her were constantly shocked. Especially Chu Yilin, who was now seriously suspecting that someone was impersonating his sister. Yet, the small black mole on the back of her left hand was undeniably a telling detail.
