Chapter 94 It's good to be rich
They all flocked in at once, including Xia'er, Qiu'er, and Dong'er. Wu Ziyan didn't have time to be surrounded by women right now; they were waiting for him to come to work. He said he would just slack off as soon as he arrived.
Feeling disgruntled, he glanced at Fang Yuerong and personally handed a cup of tea to Wu Ziyan's lips. It was probably only the Wu Dynasty that had ever seen a man like him, all alone, frequenting brothels and theaters.
He reluctantly accepted the tea and took a sip. [It's good to be rich.]
At this moment, Yue'er's inner thoughts are: "Amitabha, I hope my young master will still be able to marry well in the future."
Meanwhile, Han Yuxiu, who had come out, did not see Wu Ziyan. The waiter in the shop told him the whole story, but he was not familiar with Fang Yuerong. It would have been better if it were Chu Qiu or Changsun. He picked at his fingers, realizing that this was a difficult situation.
He had no idea what Fang Yuerong was thinking, and most importantly, Wu Ziyan was so obsessed with money that he was surprised that she didn't seem to have any sense of distance from men.
Just as I was thinking of going to Silan Pavilion, an untimely voice came from behind me. It was Adar.
"Young Master Yu Xiu, where are you headed, and who are you waiting for? Why not take a stroll around Si Lan Pavilion? What's the point of staying in this little inn?"
"What's it to you? Since this little inn can't accommodate someone as important as you, how dare you stay here for several days?" Han Yuxiu said without any mercy.
Adar liked Han Yuxiu's fiery personality and didn't take it seriously. Instead, he waited for him by the carriage while Han Yuxiu went to find Wu Ziyan.
But as a man, I was embarrassed to show my face in public, and it was also quite dangerous for me to go out alone on these newly reopened streets.
After much hesitation, they finally got into Adal's carriage. Of course, Dulan was also in the carriage, as she was afraid that their prince might do something improper.
"Young Master Yu Xiu, what exactly do you like about that little dwarf? Let me tell you my identity..." Dulan suddenly covered Adar's mouth. [My goodness, how could you just tell your identity to a stranger like that!]
“Young Master Yu Xiu, our young master wants to talk to him, but he’s the owner of Si Lan Pavilion, he’s got plenty of money!” Du Lan stared at Adar, her eyes filled with utter helplessness.
"That's quite a coincidence. My husband is also incredibly wealthy. So money can't sway me at all."
Adar's eyes darted around. He had learned some things about Han Yuxiu in the past few days and knew that he was proficient in the Huangqi technique. So he tried a different approach to see if he could persuade him: "We have many rare medicinal herbs in the Northern End, which the Wu Dynasty does not have. If you come with me, those medicinal herbs will be inexhaustible."
"Moreover, there are some medical books that even the Wu Dynasty did not have. They are not unique copies, but they are books that the Northern Desert would never pass on to outsiders."
What he said was indeed attractive to Han Yuxiu, but he was thinking that if Wu Ziyan could really open up trade routes, wouldn't those medicinal herbs and books start circulating in the future?
He shook his head: "Shut up, you noisy person."
Dulan never expected that one day their prince would be treated in such a tone. Looking at their prince's expression, there was no anger at all, but rather a sense of enjoyment.
[Is Your Highness a pervert?!] She was sweating profusely inside the carriage, while Adar tried to tempt her all the way, but Han Yuxiu remained unmoved.
Although the road to Silan Pavilion wasn't that long, it felt like an eternity in the carriage. Finally, the carriage stopped, and when he lifted the curtain, they had arrived at the entrance of Silan Pavilion.
They saw their master return at the door, bringing back his beloved young master, but judging from his expression, he didn't seem happy.
Han Yuxiu glanced sideways at the waiter: "Where's that short woman who came in?"
The waiter glanced at Adar behind him, who nodded to her. She then replied, "It's a private room on the third floor. I'll take you there now."
Dulan was a little surprised that Adal didn't follow, and asked from the side, "Young master, aren't you going to go after them?"
"There is ample time."
Han Yuxiu was led to the door of a private room on the third floor. From outside, one could hear the sounds of traditional Chinese string and wind instruments, as well as some laughter.
Xiao Er didn't push the door open. He stood at the doorway for a moment, wondering whether to go in or not, and also afraid of seeing the scene he had imagined.
"A distinguished guest? Shall we enter?"
Some nodded in agreement, and the waiter pushed the door open. The sounds inside stopped abruptly, and everyone's eyes turned to look at the door. There were certainly many distinguished guests in this private room today.
What Han Yuxiu saw was Fang Yuerong and Wu Ziyan with their arms around each other, drinking and eating, with several other people accompanying them, looking quite comfortable.
"Oh, I guess I've come at an inopportune time." Although Han Yuxiu said this, he crossed his arms and showed no intention of leaving.
Upon hearing this phrase, Wu Ziyan felt a pang of sympathy, much like the feeling of Lin Daiyu being pinched. He pushed Xia Qiudong aside and patted the empty seat next to him, saying, "Yu Xiu, come here."
Han Yuxiu stomped his foot and snorted, but still obediently walked over and sat down next to Wu Ziyan. He gave Xia Qiudong and the other two a cold look, as if he was there to assert his dominance.
These people were used to navigating the dating scene, so they could easily see through the ulterior motives and quickly moved away, all sidling up to Fang Yuerong.
"Wu Ziyan, didn't you come here to find him? Now that you've found him, why aren't you going back?"
"Oh, Yu Xiu, as the saying goes, since we're already here, look how handsome they are, and how beautifully they sing their songs."
"Humph!"
Fang Yuerong, however, remained unconvinced and shamelessly handed Han Yuxiu a cup of tea: "Little brother Yuxiu, don't be angry. Since you're already here, just have fun and enjoy the show. Let me give you a piece of advice: the world doesn't revolve around women, it revolves around money."
Han Yuxiu accepted the tea and had no words to refute what he said. Wu Ziyan also knew that Han Yuxiu was unhappy, but what shocked Han Yuxiu even more was that Fang Yuerong came to visit such a place alone.
Moreover, she seemed quite at ease in this situation, and Wu Ziyan's eyes were full of admiration, constantly lingering on him. Han Yuxiu looked at Wu Ziyan's profile, thinking, "Could it be that she likes this type?"
Wu Ziyan threw another handful of raisins into his mouth, then stood up and walked to the window. He saw that people outside had already hung lanterns, and knew that it was getting late.
She looked at the two of them and said, "You two should leave. Are you planning to stay here tonight, or what?"
"I've already booked a room here, you guys go back, I have another show to attend." Fang Yuerong put his arm around a girl right in front of Wu Ziyan, his eyes open and unabashed.
