Mei Siyu noticed the madam’s contemptuous look and glared back with her almond eyes, “Madam, you’re already so old, yet dressed so provocatively. Aren’t you ashamed?” she asked innocently.
The madam was furious but didn’t want to lose face in front of a valued customer, so she could only force a smile.
“The usual,” Ming Leng Yun held my hand and walked directly upstairs to a private room. I let him lead me, not forgetting to turn back and make faces at the madam, deliberately trying to annoy her! Why did she look at me with such eyes?
Entering the room, they were greeted by luxurious decorations and exquisite furnishings. The inner room was separated by white silk curtains, barely visible. The table was set with fresh fruits, wine, and dishes, with a serving girl present.
“Wow, I didn’t expect a brothel to have such a refined space!” Mei Siyu exclaimed sincerely. She casually picked up a fruit and ate it inelegantly, completely disregarding others’ views.
“You should tell me your name now. I’ve kept my promise, so shouldn’t you reciprocate?” Ming Leng Chen took a light sip of the wine the girl had poured.
Mei Siyu looked at his sincere face, then glanced at the serving girl, hesitating.
“You can go now, and please invite Sister Shi,” Ming Leng Chen tactfully dismissed her.
After the door was gently closed, Mei Siyu leaned in and whispered, “I’ll tell you, but you must keep it secret. Actually, I’m an imperial concubine.”
Ming Leng Yun’s hand involuntarily trembled, spilling wine on himself. A thousand thoughts raced through his mind, but he never expected her to be the emperor’s woman!

Mei Siyu noticed his expression wasn’t good. “What’s wrong? Your face looks terrible.”
“You’re an imperial concubine!” Ming Leng Yun asked seriously.
“Yes, an imperial concubine with no favor from the emperor,” Mei Siyu said casually, as if talking about someone else’s story, a sunshine-like smile still on her face.
