Chapter 319: Under the Bed
Chapter 319: Under the Bed
The door was opened, and a pretentious white figure, carrying an air of worldly affairs, walked in.
"My two lords, I am here to pay my respects."
Although they look slow and weak, Zhang Haoran knows that once they have no money, they will immediately become sharp-tongued and aggressive women.
The hazy moonlight made the other person look so beautiful that Bao Longxing was stunned.
"Miss Ruyan, please take a seat."
Zhang Haoran ignored Bao Longxing's silly look and said with a slight smile on his face.
"Thank you, young master." Ruyan looked up at Zhang Haoran from time to time. She couldn't help but feel a little greedy when she saw such a handsome and beautiful young man.
Ruyan remained dignified, sat down beside him, and said, "I wonder if the two gentlemen would like me to accompany you for a drink or listen to some music."
"I wonder how old Miss Ruyan is?" Bao Longxing said, wiping the corner of his mouth.
"Reporting to the young master, Ruyan has been sighing for twenty-two years." Ruyan answered truthfully, but her eyes were looking at Zhang Haoran.
"Oh~ Miss Ruyan must be very lonely..."
"Well, Miss Ruyan, there's no need to be restrained. We're here just to find someone to chat with and kill some time. You just need to sit with us." Zhang Haoran interrupted Bao Longxing who was about to make a dirty joke.
Ruyan pursed her lips and smiled: "It's all up to you, sir."
Just then, the sound of gongs and noise came from the street outside. The three of them stood up and went to the window, looking at the surging crowd below.
There were also large groups of soldiers passing by on the streets.
"What happened? Why such a big scene?"
"Just now I heard that the Minister of Justice and a high-ranking official both died in the Minister's house."
"Wow, this is incredible. Could he have been killed? Who is so bold? If this is true, I have to go back and get two taels of wine to celebrate."
"Hey, you know what. I heard from others that he seemed to have eaten thousands of pancakes and died of bloating. It looked like someone stuffed him full."
"So outrageous..."
After hearing the discussions below, Bao Longxing panicked and looked at Zhang Haoran.
The latter still looked indifferent, as if it was none of his business.
"There's nothing to see, just two corrupt officials died." Zhang Haoran turned around and sat back down at the table.
"Young master has a demeanor that is detached from the mundane world, which makes me admire him very much." Ruyan said with a charming smile.
Bao Longxing felt nervous when he heard this, thinking, oh no, this time he is not going to get into trouble.
Zhang Haoran didn't pay attention to Ruyan's obvious hint.
Seeing this, Ruyan felt that she was not working hard enough and began to flirt with Zhang Haoran.
"Oh, sir, you can't go in. Ruyan is meeting guests inside."
At this time, the voice of the madam was heard outside the door.
Then an old man's voice rang out: "Humph, I want to see who dares not to give me face."
"Oh no! It's the Minister of Rites. You should hide quickly. If you offend him, you will probably end up in a bad situation." Ruyan said in panic after hearing the voice.
"Hide? How could I hide? Don't worry, my elder brother is here, no one can stop me!" Bao Longxing was completely arrogant after what happened yesterday. Even the Minister of Justice was killed by them, so why should he be afraid of the Minister of Rites?
"Well, I think what Ruyan said makes sense, Brother Bao, let's just hide."
"Ah?" Bao Longxing was caught off guard by the sudden slap in the face.
Then, at Ruyan's signal, he hid under the bed.
Then I looked through the gap and saw the door was pushed open and an old man walked in.
"Huh? Where are the people?" the madam following behind asked in surprise.
"Humph, you dare to lie to me. There is no one in Miss Ruyan's room. Oh, I see. Are you dissatisfied with the money I gave you?"
As he said this, he took out two silver bills from his sleeve and handed them to the madam.
Although the madam was puzzled as to why the two men disappeared, she no longer thought about anything else after seeing the banknotes. She took the banknotes in a flattering manner and left.
"Hey, Miss Ruyan, I miss you so much!"
The old guy couldn't wait to pounce on Ruyan and started biting her neck wildly.
"Oh, sir, please don't be so impatient!" Ruyan had no choice but to find an excuse to break free.
Bao Longxing looked at the bed swaying back and forth above his head, feeling anxious and wanting to rush out and kill the old man.
Zhang Haoran shook his head when he saw this and told him to stay calm.
"Oh, sir, you came at a bad time. Our girl Ruyan is receiving guests in the room. How about I arrange for other girls to serve her?"
At this time, the madam's voice was heard outside the door again.
This time, the one who came to see Ruyan was a young man dressed in gorgeous clothes.
“Great, great, great…”
After hearing what the madam said, he tapped his palms with the fan in his hand and muttered a long string of "bang" characters.
"Ah?" The madam didn't understand what he meant and looked at the followers behind him.
"My master means that it must be Miss Ruyan today. No matter who is in the room, let him get out as soon as possible." said the subordinate.
"Hey, that won't do, it's against the rules. Besides, the guy inside is someone you don't want to mess with. I'm doing this for your own good." The madam advised earnestly.
Upon hearing this, the young master said, "Oh? Who is it? Is there anyone here who is more awesome than me?"
"Of course not, sir. Please wait a moment. I will take care of it."
When the old man in the house heard the noise outside, he immediately became panicked.
"No, why is he here?"
"Miss Ruyan, where can you hide here? Don't tell anyone that you have seen me later."
Ruyan was also very surprised and pointed under the bed hesitantly.
Seeing this, the old man didn't say anything and went in immediately.
But he didn't expect that there was someone under the bed, which scared the old man.
Bao Longxing saw this and greeted him with a smile: "Hi, hello, buddy."
The door was opened, and the old man didn't care about anything else and hid his whole body inside.
At the door, the madam was stunned again. Where is this person?
"Hey, sir, are you satisfied?" a subordinate behind him said flatteringly.
“Bang bang bang bang bang…”
"Well, sir, enjoy it to your heart's content. We will guard the door for you and will never let the old Buddha know."
After the subordinate finished speaking, he pulled the madam out and closed the door.
"Here~ This is a silver note of two hundred taels. Don't let anyone disturb my young master."
After seeing the banknote, the madam forgot all her previous affairs again and thought that she had made a fortune today. She had never expected that Ruyan would be so popular. It seemed that winning the next courtesan was a sure thing.
Inside the room, the short young man looked Ruyan up and down, and from his expression, he seemed quite satisfied.
The beauties in the palace are all beautiful.
Moreover, that old witch controlled the government, which made him extremely unhappy.
"Sir, you want to...ah~"
Before Ruyan could finish her words, she saw the young master pounce on her, holding her neck and biting her wildly again.
