“What can I do for you, sir?” the madam asked attentively. After Tao Yu had raised her paddle, she had received several boxes of gold. Now, in her eyes, Tao Yu was not a person but a fresh, fat lamb.
Tao Yu frowned: “Where is the person I bought?”
“To answer your question, they’ve been sent to your room. Please enjoy yourself today,” the madam smiled, her face blooming.
Tao Yu’s eyebrows moved. She walked forward a few steps, then turned back, sounding somewhat petty: “I forgot to ask earlier. Did I just buy him for the night?”
The madam looked at her in surprise, covering her mouth and laughing: “Sir, you’re joking. You paid 200,000 taels of gold. How could it be just for one night?”
Tao Yu was relieved, realizing she had asked a silly question. She immediately put on a wealthy air to save face: “Of course I knew that. I was just joking with you. Besides, even if it were just for one night, I could come every day.”
“Of course, sir. You’re a person of great prospects. What are these small amounts of money?” the madam immediately flattered her.
Tao Yu snorted and swagger towards the room where Yue Linze was locked.
Unfortunately, her arrogance disappeared like a candle doused with water as soon as she entered the room.
The room was filled with fragrance, with layers of flowing silk decorations. Tao Yu carefully parted layer after layer of silk until she finally reached the surprisingly large bed.
On the red bed, the young version of Yue Linze was trapped, weakly struggling. From his movement, it was clear he had been drugged.
His hands and feet were bound, his eyes covered with a black cloth, and his mouth was stuffed with a round object, seemingly to prevent him from biting his tongue, or perhaps for some other purpose.
Tao Yu: … Each of the big shot’s sub-personalities is more interesting than the last.
Yue Linze only felt his eyes suddenly brighten, and due to the light’s stimulation, he closed his eyes, slowly opening them a crack after a while. Then he saw a face wearing a gentle smile, staring at her for a long time before hearing her speak in the voice he had just heard: “Has the drug’s effect worn off?”
