“Come in, let’s talk.”

    Su Xin made an inviting gesture to He Yun Shu.

    He Yun Shu walked into the room blankly, looked around, and couldn’t help frowning.

    Although this room looks very clean, it still has traces of old age.

    For example, there are obvious traces of chips on the table, and some things don’t look good with this room, and when she saw Xue Yao this afternoon, wasn’t Xue Yao on the third floor? Why is she on the second floor now? 

    “It’s a bit crude, please don’t mind, Miss.”

    Su Xin poured a cup of tea for He Yun Shu and handed it to her gently.

    “It’s okay…you…”

    He Yun Shu didn’t know what to say. In fact, she just came in to watch the play, and it was obvious that something happened to Xue Yao. They were not familiar with each other yet, and it felt too presumptuous to ask.

    “How do you know that I am a Young Miss?”

    He Yun Shu thought of this important question and quickly asked it.

    “Miss’ body has the powdery fragrance of a Young Miss’ body. It must have accumulated for a while, and you have looks that are a little too delicate.”

    Su Xin chuckled lightly, relaying the results of her analysis to He Yun Shu bit by bit.

    Miss Su’s understanding ability is very good, I will definitely improve next time.

    The atmosphere is harmonious. He Yun Shu is a chatty person, and Su Xin approached her intentionally, so it seemed quite congenial.

    It’s not good for He Yun Shu to not return home at night. Her maid who was waiting at home would be anxious to death, so when she planned to leave, she put some silver taels on the table.

    “It’s not necessary. I neither played the zither nor sang a song. I am ashamed of taking your money.”

    “I took up Xue Yao’s time, so I thought I had to pay the bill.”

    He YunShu thought it was only natural to pay the price. Although she didn’t touch her personally,how could a girl who had come to a brothel, order a prostitute and leave without paying?

    He Yun Shu was taken aback, and she didn’t plan to touch her personally. She glanced at Su Xin, whose face was ruddy, and her shoulders were slightly exposed, and once again sighed at Su Xin’s exquisite appearance in that aqua blue dress that contrasted against her black eyes. 

    “It is fate to get acquainted with each other. The young lady is regarded as the daughter of the boudoir, which is different from me and other women from the dirt.”

    Su Xin stuffed the two silver back into He Yun Shu’s hand.

    “The phoenix female is not that good. Since ancient times, she laughed at the poor and laughed at the prostitutes. Furthermore, you don’t have to be contemptuous because you are a clean man.”

   Su Xin still kept the money as a meeting gift.

    “Thank you.”

    The woman’s voice was soft, He Yun Shu looked over, the light was faint, and her brows were furrowed.

    After He Yun Shu left, Su Xin called Fourteen in her mind.

    Fourteen, do you know when that Young Miss will go to the capital?

    [Checking, report to the host, half a month from now. ]

    The very conscientious AI answered Su Xin’s question.

    Fourteen, what are you doing when I’m not talking to you?

    Su Xin became interested in the life of the system after work.

    [Looking at other hosts. ]

    Oh? You have colleagues?

    [Well, there is one. ]

    Fourteenth answered, because candidates are not easy to find, they also only found these two.

    Is it a boy or a girl, can I talk to her?

    Curious, Su Xin asked.

    [Girl, calling…]

    [I’m sorry, the other party hung up your request. ]

   Why?

    Su Xin is shocked, it seems that this colleague seems to be very uncomfortable.

    [Because the other party is doing some kind of unspeakable act of brewing sauce again. ]

    Fourteen’s broadcasted voice sounded extremely upright.

    The corner of Su Xin’s mouth curled in a sneer. Who was so insecure? She didn’t tell her in advance that this system was not a fool.

    Su Xin didn’t take a long time to make friends with He Yun Shu, probably because He Yun Shu had a good first impression of her, and she was very gentle every time she talked to her.

    “Xue Yao, do you like this rouge?”

    He Yun Shu tried to make some of this by herself. Since ancient times, women made the best money. She plans to develop this career, so she first came to her good friend.

    Maybe it’s the plot of a baby bird. He Yun Shu first came to this strange world. She saw Hong’er and then a group of spooky people. After she figured out the messy things, she started to go shopping and met her. The first woman in this world that she can call a beautiful woman.

    She found that Xue Yao was very talkative. Even though she was born in the red light district, she still maintained her elegance, and she found that she and Xue Yao got along very well, even if they didn’t get along for a long time, they thought about the same things. Extraordinarily in harmony.

    She comes from the future, and naturally has her own set of ideas for these things, but Xue Yao can also have such ideas.  She has to say that she is very advanced. He Yun Shu has doubts in her heart, but it is difficult to directly say them, so she confronts Su Xin with a sentence.

    “The Socialist Scientific Outlook on Development.”

    Su Xin, who is about to answer He Yun Shu about rouge: “….”

    She couldn’t answer this. Should she answer the socialist core value system?

    “Yun Shu, what are you talking about?”

    Su Xin looked confused.

    “It’s okay, I remembered something.”

    He Yun Shu shook her head, feeling lost. It turned out that Xue Yao was not like herself.

    Su Xin gave feedback to He Yun Shu how she felt about this rouge, and then reluctantly told Fourteen that she felt that she was a user being promoted, and He Yun Shu was the one who did the promotion.

    He Yun Shu looked at the rouge on Su Xin’s lips and felt that this color might not be suitable for Su Xin, because this color was too gorgeous, and the lips of the woman in front of her were bright red, giving birth to a touch of charm.

    He Yun Shu didn’t like it one bit, and decided to make a softer light color next time and give it to Su Xin.

    [I can’t find a more appropriate analogy for this. ]

    Fourteen silently cheered Su Xin.

    He Yun Shu feels that although Su Xin still maintains a pure and innocent heart in the dust, she is full of ideas about economics, is an extraordinary conversationalist, and certain concepts are also very correct and advanced. It is a pity to stay here forever, and she can earn income. A girl who works under her command can also be a good friend whom she can talk to.

    Su Xin thinks that He Yun Shu is a big gold finger, Miss Luck who can not only make soap but also make rouge. She is looking forward to the day when she makes her a concubine.

    Amidst Ta Yan’s ignorance and Wan Yue’s sarcasm, the ignorance of the girls in the building, and He Yun Shu’s persevering greetings, half a month quickly passed.

    He Yun Shu was in the process of planning, she wanted to return to the capital, and then avenge the original owner of this body. Before, she was the third concubine of the prime minister’s mansion. All kinds of bad servants abused her.

    The original owner was tortured to death, and He Yun Shu promised that she would help her get revenge.

    The plan to return to Beijing is on the agenda, and He Yun Shu intends to say goodbye to Su Xin, her only friend in this place.

    Su Xin waited and waited, for this day.

    “Xue Yao, I’m leaving.”

    He Yun Shu’s ability to change clothes is much better than before. At least it won’t let people know that she is a girl at a glance. When she puts on men’s clothing, the feminine charm that belongs to women is also reduced a lot. Like a pretty boy who can’t argue with her.

    He Yun Shu was a little bit unwilling. After all, once she left, she didn’t know when she would be able to return to this place. This time she went to the capital to go through a lot of things. The sisters, and brothers in that group of houses did seem to be a mess. She just doesn’t know what it will be like when she comes back, and what this person will be like.

    “Where are you going?”

    Su Xin pretends to ask without knowing.

    “I want to go back to the capital, where my home is.”

    He Yun Shu sneered, and in front of Su Xin did not conceal her attitude towards the family in Beijing.

    “I also need to go.”

    Su Xin said to He Yun Shu.

    “But… If Xue Yao wants to go with me, there may be danger, I’m afraid I can’t protect you.”

    He Yun Shu obviously misunderstood something. She thought that Su Xin was going to the capital for her and to be by her side.

    “No… I don’t need your protection, I just want to do one thing, something that I decided long ago, but I haven’t started.”

    “What are you going to do in the capital?”

    He Yun Shu groaned as her knee knocked on the table.

    “Participate in the Banquet of the Four Kingdoms.”

    He Yun Shu didn’t know what the Banquet of the Four Kingdoms was, so Su Xin explained to her in detail.

    He Yun Shu had a complicated expression and nodded.

    Probably in her opinion, this feeling of a prostitute trying to turn herself into a high-level prostitute is indeed an unspeakable taste. She came from a different world, and there is always a barrier to this world. For He Yun Shu this choice is not quite understandable.

    She felt that Su Xin could get her own sale deed, and she could lead her own life with her own sale deed and money, so why bother to go all the way to the capital and let someone choose her like a cargo.

    If Su Xin had no task, she could choose this way, but she came with a task, and the task was not easy. From another perspective, if it was easy, she wouldn’t need her to come.

    She wants to be the most beautiful person in the four countries.

    When Su Xin went to get her own contract from Ta Yan, Ta Yan’s expression was very tangled.

    “That’s not a good way.”

    Ta Yan didn’t know who made Xue Yao possess that kind of fantasy. Ta Yan always thought that Xue Yao was a very clever person. She didn’t expect that there was such a stupid and naive idea in her head. On the day when there was no way out, the powerful gathered. In this place, she is like an ant that can be easily trampled to death.

    “It’s just my own choice, I don’t regret it.”

    Su Xin accepted her own contract and stuffed the pills provided by Fourteenth into Ta Yan’s mouth.

    “The antidote, goodbye.”

    Su Xin’s appearance was rather unrestrained, and Ta Yan looked at her back when she was leaving, feeling irritated.

    It’s all her money.

    He Yun Shu waited for her not far away. She changed back to women’s clothing, looking graceful and dignified.

    Su Xin never fought unprepared battles, so she asked Fourteen for details of Qu Feiqing.

    Qu Feiqing is the queen of Quliu Kingdom. It is worth mentioning that Quliu Kingdom is a country that respects women, but a traditional society in which men are inferior to women unlike all countries.
