He immediately turned to look at me, his thin lips slightly parted, his eyes full of surprise!
I waved my five fingers in front of his eyes, not understanding his expression, pursed my lips and gave him a sidelong glance: “Why are you looking at me like that? What, do you think I’m wrong?”
He turned away, picked up his cup and drank it all in one gulp.
I broke out in a cold sweat…
His expression was bleak, a hint of bitterness at the corner of his mouth: “Luo Yan only wants to enter the palace. How could she possibly see anyone else!”
So the woman in red was called Luo Yan. What a nice name. I slowly picked up my tea cup and took a sip, my eyes filled with a calm smile, speaking nonchalantly: “It’s simple. Just find a way to prevent her from entering the palace!”
He didn’t even glance at me, seemingly very confident about that woman.
But I felt that while she was beautiful, she wasn’t necessarily the most likely to succeed. So I said: “If I can make her fail, how will you thank me?”
He finally turned to look at me directly, still hesitant. I didn’t mind and smiled: “Do you think I’m more beautiful than her?”
He stammered: “Of course you are far more beautiful!”
I shrugged and raised an eyebrow: “Then that’s settled!”
He finally laughed and asked: “So you have a good plan?”
I winked at him, raised a finger to my lips and shook it, giving a mysterious smile!
The bathhouse man laughed heartily: “Miss Ling Yu, there’s no need to be modest!” Then he turned to the crowd, “This old man hereby declares that Miss Ling Yu has won today’s competition. Does anyone object?” Immediately, cheers erupted, and occasional protests were drowned out by the other voices.
Thus, the flower appreciation gathering came to a perfect conclusion!
I stretched out both hands towards the bathhouse man, “Hand it over!”
“Hand over what?” He looked somewhat confused!
“The reward!” I immediately put my hands on my hips, my eyebrows raised, “What, trying to renege?”
He suddenly realized and laughed, “I don’t know what reward the young lady wants!”
