Empress, please have some self-respect. I am not your husband.

"Don't be so fierce. Can't I even ask out of curiosity?"

Yu Ningyan revealed a slightly resentful expression, and her pitiful appearance would have melted the hearts of anyone else.

But Lu Feng wasn't buying it. He chuckled and said, "Yes, asking won't work either."

"asshole!"

The woman cursed angrily, but she was helpless against the man opposite her.

She couldn't understand why all the mannerisms and words she used to use to manipulate men were completely ineffective with Lu Feng.

Could it be that this guy isn't a man?

No, when this guy held me in his arms and kissed me that night, I clearly felt that this bastard was a real man.

Ignoring Yu Ningyan's thoughts, he tidied up the dishes.

Lu Feng said, "Let's go, I need to go out for a bit."

"Where to?" Yu Ningyan, who was in a daze, quickly got up.

Lu Feng said, "Go to the brokerage and buy a few maids. I don't want to have to serve you again in the future."

"Hmph, I wonder how many people dream of serving me." Yu Ningyan snorted arrogantly.

Lu Feng looked him up and down, then clicked his tongue, which made the woman so angry that she almost rushed over and strangled him.

The two went out together and at first they didn't notice anything unusual, but soon they realized something was wrong.

Seeing the men on the street drooling over Yu Ningyan, Lu Feng looked helplessly at the woman beside him: "Where's your veil?"

"I forgot to wear it."

Yu Ningyan rubbed her temples. In the past, her maids would remind her when she went out, but now that she was with Lu Feng, no one reminded her anymore.

But she quickly became smug: "See? Not everyone is like you. With just a snap of my fingers, these people will rush to kneel before me."

"You can only attract these ordinary people." Lu Feng smiled contemptuously.

Hearing this, Yu Ningyan gritted her teeth and said, "You just wait. When you kneel before me, I will play with you to death. If I don't do this to you, I'm not Yu Ningyan."

You couldn't even have a dream like this at night.

"Bastard thing!"

The bickering along the way improved Lu Feng's mood considerably, and the two arrived at the brokerage firm.

Upon hearing the purpose of their visit, the broker, captivated by Yu Ningyan's beauty, led them inside.

A brokerage firm is essentially an intermediary agency where sellers entrust their goods to it for sale, and the brokerage firm takes a cut of the profits.

Even buying players is an option.

In this era, once a servant signed a contract of servitude, he was merely a commodity that could be bought and sold at will.

Knowing that Lu Feng and his companion wanted to buy a maid, the servant immediately led them to the place where servants were sold.

There were seven or eight girls, about twelve or thirteen years old, with straw markers stuck in their hair and looking around with different expressions.

The servant enthusiastically introduced, "Young master, look at this girl. She's quick-witted, sharp-eyed, and strong. She's already worked as a maid for two families."

Lu Feng glanced at her and shook his head inwardly. Although he wouldn't judge a book by its cover, he decided to pass on this chubby girl who looked to be around 150 or 160 pounds.

Yu Ningyan coughed and said, "Let's change to another one."

After all, she bought a maid to serve her.

After glancing at them a few times, Lu Feng took a liking to one and pointed to it, asking Yu Ningyan, "How about this one?"

Yu Ningyan looked over and saw a little girl who looked about twelve years old, dressed in coarse cloth clothes, looking around timidly.

Although the little girl looked a bit thin, she had a pretty and delicate appearance, giving off a refined and charming vibe.

Yu Ningyan nodded: "This girl seems well-behaved and obedient, let's choose her."

“We’ll take her. How much silver?” Lu Feng asked.

Unexpectedly, the servant looked troubled and said, "Young master, this girl has already been reserved by someone else. You should find another one."

"That's fine then." Lu Feng nodded, intending to choose another one.

Unexpectedly, the little girl suddenly knelt down and kowtowed: "Big brother and this fairy sister, please buy me, I am very capable of working."

"What nonsense are you spouting, you brat? Are you looking for death?!"

The servant's expression changed immediately after the little girl's outburst, and he promptly drew the leather whip from his waist.

Lu Feng tried to dissuade them: "Don't be so quick to threaten violence. If you damage them, you won't get a good price, will you?"

The servant chuckled awkwardly, "What the young master says makes sense."

Then he scolded, "You brat, you're lucky today. It's your good fortune that Young Master Zhang has taken a liking to you!"

But the little girl persisted, pitifully kowtowing and pleading, "Big brother, fairy sister, please buy me, please!"

The two calls of "Fairy Sister" made Yu Ningyan overjoyed, and she immediately said, "Lu Feng, this girl is smart and clever, I want her!"

"Don't cause me any trouble." Lu Feng glared at him, clearly not intending to pay him any attention.

Yu Ningyan was furious. Just then, a loud and arrogant voice came from afar: "Little Li, where the hell have you been? I brought Qian Laozi, where is he?!"

The servant beside Lu Feng immediately turned around: "Oh my, Young Master Zhang, over here!"

Lu Feng immediately saw a huge, muscular creature walking towards him. Even he couldn't help but marvel at how good the food must be to make someone so full.

The man was about 1.67 meters tall, but Lu Feng estimated that he weighed about 300 pounds. He was the kind of person who would have to catch his breath after taking a few steps. He was followed by four or five servants.

A servant boy named Xiao Li immediately stepped forward and said, "Young Master Zhang, please take your time."

The fat man called Young Master Zhang rolled his eyes. Just as he was about to speak, he rushed to Yu Ningyan's side, his face full of amazement.

"How could there be such a stunning beauty in the world! And I actually met her! A beauty, truly a beauty!"

Yu Ningyan frowned slightly. Her self-restraint prevented her from uttering the words "fat pig," but she still moved closer to Lu Feng.

Seeing this, Xiao Li subtly stepped forward to block her half a step: "Young Master Zhang, this young lady is a customer of our brokerage firm."

Young Master Zhang spat out, "Nonsense, how could I not know it's a person? Even if it meant going bankrupt, I'd still buy it!"

Yu Ningyan frowned even more deeply.

Fortunately, Young Master Zhang didn't say anything further and slapped the silver note into Xiao Li's hand: "Alright, take the money and I'm taking the person with me."

"Alright, Young Master Zhang."

Xiao Li stepped forward with the silver note and pulled out the little girl that Lu Feng and the others had previously taken a liking to.

The little girl immediately burst into tears, looking at Young Master Zhang's fleshy face with despair at Yu Ningyan and Lu Feng, the two people who had previously wanted to buy her.

Young Master Zhang grinned wickedly and stepped forward to take the little girl, saying with a smile, "Don't cry. Come home with me, and I'll make sure you eat and drink well. I love you the most, my tender little cabbage."

Just as he was leading the little girl past Lu Feng and the other man, Yu Ningyan's pupils suddenly contracted, and then she shuddered, overwhelmed by an indescribable sense of shame and indignation!
