The woman was trembling all over, curled up on the ground, clutching her thin clothes tightly with both hands.

The beautiful woman chuckled, telling the guests to enjoy themselves, and led her two subordinates out, thoughtfully closing the door behind them.

As soon as the door closed, Yu Wanran immediately stood up and walked towards the woman. The woman shrank back in terror, her hand behind her back instinctively clutching a shard of porcelain hidden in her sleeve.

"Don't come here!"

She let out a hysterical and desperate scream, her eyes revealing a mad and resolute light.

Yu Wanran chuckled softly, unable to bear frightening the other person any further. She stopped, bent down, looked down into those beautiful phoenix eyes, and uttered three words in a low voice.

"Zhong Yeliu!"

Zhong Yeliu's eyes widened suddenly as she stared in shock at the person in front of her.

Only the madam who held her contract of indenture knew her real name. And she was given a vulgar stage name, Jin Ling'er. How did the customers who came for pleasure know this?

Yu Wanran lowered her voice: "I've come to redeem you. Are you willing to leave this place?"

Noticing Zhong Yeliu's wary gaze, she remained silent. Recalling Zhong Yeliu's stubborn and unyielding temper in her past life, she gently ripped off the fake mustache stuck to her lips, pulled down her collar, and revealed her smooth, jade-like neck without an Adam's apple.

Zhong Yeliu almost cried out, covering her mouth with both hands in disbelief.

Yu Wanran saw her scarred hands, old wounds now marked by scratches from holding onto broken porcelain shards. A dark glint flashed in her eyes as she took her hand and led her to the bedside.

Zhong Yeliu instinctively wanted to push her away.

But considering they were both women, and wondering what the other was up to, she gave up struggling after a slight tremor and obediently followed her to sit on the edge of the bed.

Yu Wanran took out a medicine bottle she always carried with her, and with gentle and careful movements, picked up the broken piece of porcelain and threw it on the ground. Then she used a clean handkerchief to apply medicine and bandage Zhong Yeliu.

Zhong Yeliu remained silent, letting her do as she pleased. Her face was expressionless, but her long, trembling eyelashes betrayed her bewilderment and unease.

As soon as Yu Wanran finished bandaging, she immediately retreated to the other corner of the bed, keeping a close eye on Yu Wanran, not missing any change in her expression.

"Who are you? Why are you helping me?"

Betrayed by her own family, she couldn't believe there were such kind people in the world who would extend a helping hand to her for no reason.

This question is not easy to answer.

Yu Wanran considered all the possibilities of reuniting with the other party, but couldn't figure out how to gain his trust. But it didn't matter; she didn't expect Zhong Yeliu to immediately become her capable right-hand woman.

Her only wish was that her loyal and capable subordinate from her previous life could escape the two years of hardship of being forced into prostitution. If Ye Liu could preserve her chastity, her later life would probably not be like her previous one, filled with cynicism and loneliness until her death.

I've heard of your talent.

Carefully choosing her words, Yu Wanran said frankly, "It just so happens that I'm a businessman and need someone like you who can write and calculate to accompany me. If you're willing, I'll do my best to redeem you from the madam and take you away from Liufang Garden."

Zhong Yeliu was completely unconvinced.

Have you heard of her talent? Where did you hear that? She is indeed skilled in accounting and managing a household. But in the eyes of her clan, those are essential abilities for a woman.

They even thought she was too shrewd and a nuisance!

However, the other party was a woman, looking at her with an earnest expression. Even if she were foolish, she wouldn't be so foolish as to refuse such a good opportunity.

Even if she were to follow the other party and become their slave, it would still be better than staying in Liufang Garden, where a thousand men would pillow her with her jade-like arms and ten thousand guests would taste her crimson lips.

Having figured out the key point, Zhong Yeliu immediately stood up, knelt before Yu Wanran, and made a firm vow.

"This servant is willing to follow you, young lady! If you are willing to save me from this misery, I am willing to give you all my knowledge and my life!"

Yu Wanran helped her up and pulled her to sit beside her. She lowered half of the bed curtains and ruffled the bedding. Glancing at the faintly flickering figure on the window paper, she whispered.

"Speak louder!"

Zhong Yeliu was dumbfounded.

Yu Wanran put the fake beard back on, took off his outer robe, and threw it onto the chair. He winked at her and gave her a mischievous smile.

"I'm afraid they won't let you go easily. I don't have much money with me, so if you keep asking, maybe you can get a better price!"

Zhong Yeliu looked at her, dressed in a brocade robe, her long legs stretched out gracefully on the bed. Her chest was probably wrapped with a breast wrap, revealing nothing at all.

His clear, bright eyes held a hint of a smile and gentleness. If she hadn't just seen his true face, she would almost have mistaken him for a handsome young man!

She blushed for no apparent reason.

She lowered her head to cover her burning face, paused for a moment, and then let out a soft meow.

Yu Wanran was not satisfied.

When the eldest brother of the crown prince frequented prostitutes, people didn't seem to call him that.

"louder please!"

Zhong Yeliu grabbed her own neck and yelled twice more.

Yu Wanran sighed: "Do you still want to leave here?"

Zhong Yeliu made up her mind.

In a fit of desperation, he collapsed onto the bed and began pounding the bed frame with his hands and feet, while letting out increasingly shrill screams.

Yu Wanran gestured, indicating that she was doing well and should keep it up. She bit her index finger, squeezed out a few drops of blood, and applied it to the bedding. Zhong Yeliu looked speechless and could only reluctantly cooperate, her voice hoarse.

The trio from Liufangyuan, who hadn't gone far, were eavesdropping and grimacing as they listened.

One of the pimps couldn't help but worry: "Lady Yan, that customer is so restless, what if he causes a death?"

“That stubborn girl won’t listen to reason or force, she’s got a really strong temper. It’s good to teach her a lesson. With her like this, I’m afraid she’ll bring shame to our Liufang Garden if she’s sent to accompany those important people.”

The beautiful woman wiped her mouth with a handkerchief in disgust.

"It just so happens that this guest surnamed Yu likes this kind of thing, so let him tame this little vixen! You all stay here and keep watch, don't let that brat escape again!"

After saying that, she swayed her graceful waist and went to greet other guests.

Inside, Zhong Yeliu had torn his clothes to shreds. Fortunately, he was already covered in bruises, so there was no need to over-facade for his suffering. The two discussed their next steps: how to negotiate with Yan Niangzi?

Ye Liu bit her lower lip in resentment.

"Why should you give more money, Master, and let that beautiful lady benefit? According to my plan, they would probably be eager to hand this hot potato to you right away!"

As she spoke, she whispered her plan to Yu Wanran. Yu Wanran listened and nodded secretly, thinking to herself that Ye Liu was as shrewd as she had been in her previous life. It was only because she had unfortunately fallen into prostitution that she had encountered this predicament.

As dawn broke, Yu Wanran suddenly shouted, startling the two pimps who were dozing outside the door.

The pimps kicked open the door and rushed in! The scene inside left them speechless and stunned.

Zhong Yeliu was barely clothed and hung from the headboard like a rag doll. Yu Wanran, standing on the edge of the bed, was pulling him away from the ropes.

Upon seeing the pimp enter, Yu Wanran immediately placed him on the bed. She put on her shoes and outer robe, and was about to walk out the door, her face full of anger.

"What kind of girls does your Liufangyuan train? We only slept together for one night, and this morning she's acting like she's going to kill herself, hanging from the headboard! Trying to scare me to death? This lousy place, I'm never coming back again!"
