Oh no! Seven kids at the start, all yellow and skinny.

Chapter 214 You look very familiar

Soon, the four girls followed Li Niang into the house.

“Young master, our Miss Ying’er has guests and can’t come for the time being. How about this little sparrow plays a tune for you? This little sparrow is quite skilled…”

Yunyi tossed another gold ingot over: "I said I wanted the best, so I want the best. If it's not the best, I don't care."

"Well... alright then." Li Niang gave the other three girls a wink, then went out.

Two of the girls quickly started singing and dancing, while the other came over to pour drinks; they couldn't let the situation become awkward, after all, this was their lucky charm.

Meanwhile, in the room diagonally opposite, Ning Xingchen was leaning against a beautiful woman, enjoying being fed by another beautiful woman, and listening to Ying'er playing music across from him, having a very pleasant time.

Li Niang was in a dilemma. This was a money-making god, and she couldn't offend either side. She could only wait until the song ended before entering the room: "Young master, a customer over there requested Ying'er's song. I'll have Que'er come and get it for you..."

"Why should I?" Ning Xingchen, who had been squinting, suddenly widened his eyes. "What's wrong? Is my money not enough?"

"No, I wouldn't dare," Li Niang hurriedly waved her hand. "I just want Ying'er to go and handle it for a bit, and she can come back later, okay?"

Ning Xingchen let out a breath: "Alright, I have to be back in a quarter of an hour."

"Thank you, young master." Li Niang hurriedly pulled Ying'er to the room diagonally opposite, giving her a few instructions along the way, and only breathed a sigh of relief after the door was closed.

After playing two pieces for Yunyi, Ying'er was about to leave when Hongyi stopped her.

"We'll cover your entire performance tonight, so don't go out."

Yunyi nodded: "Money is not a problem."

"But..." Ying'er was immediately in a dilemma upon hearing this, after all, there were still people waiting on the other side, so she could only give a look and ask someone to call Liniang.

Because all the attention today has been drawn to Tianxiang Garden, business is slow at these five brothels. Li Niang, who had been waiting on the second floor, immediately found out and rushed over to ask for the person, but Yun Yi wouldn't let go. In the end, she had no choice but to go to the other side to negotiate.

"I'd like to see who's so bold as to intercept my people," Ning Xingchen said, pushing aside the woman beside him and getting up.

Liniang tried to stop him, but Lianxing pushed her away.

Yunyi was drinking with Hongyi when the door was suddenly pushed open, causing her to frown.

"Who's so blind?" Hong Yi raised her hand and threw the wine glass in her hand.

Lian Xing's face darkened. He caught the wine glass and then threw it back at him.

Hong stood up and caught the cup. Just as she was about to make another move, Yunyi stopped her: "Stop."

Red One could only take a step back.

Ning Xingchen's expression changed a few times upon seeing Yun Yi, but he quickly regained his composure and stepped inside: "It's rare that you, young brother, also enjoy Miss Ying'er's music. How about we share a table?"

Yun Yi glanced at Ning Xingchen and sighed inwardly. This guy really is the best of the best among spoiled brats. Even in a place like Longxi, he hasn't stopped having fun. However, since he had obviously recognized her, there was no need to be coy. She nodded and said, "If you can treat me, I have no problem."

"Put all the expenses on my tab from now on," Ning Xingchen said, turning around before sitting down.

Li Niang finally breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly ordered people to serve wine and dishes again.

"Young man, you look very familiar." Ning Xingchen looked at Yun Yi while holding his wine glass.

"Really?" Yunyi feigned ignorance. "Then it means...we're destined to be together?"

cough cough.

Ning Xingchen choked on his own drink.

“But you don’t look like someone from Longxi, so why are you here?” Yunyi continued to play dumb.

"They've come looking for someone."

"did you find it?"

"Although I didn't see the person I was looking for, I met someone else I didn't expect, so it was a pleasant surprise."

"Then congratulations." Yunyi raised her wine glass in a gesture of appreciation.

Ning Xingchen gestured, but didn't drink.

"Why aren't you drinking?" Yunyi raised an eyebrow slightly.

"Didn't you also not drink any?" Ning Xingchen raised an eyebrow slightly in response.

"I can't hold my liquor."

"I've had too much to drink."

Yunyi: ...

"What's your name, young man?" Ning Xingchen put down his wine glass.

"It's just a form of address, you can call me whatever you want." Yunyi also put down her wine glass.

Ning Xingchen stared at Yun Yi and raised his hand in a gesture.

Lian Xing immediately kicked the girls out.

"What are you doing? This cost money." Yunyi frowned.

"Let's talk for a bit before letting them in."

Yunyi could only nod: "Go ahead and speak."

"You said you didn't care what I called you, so how about I call you... Miss Fang?" Ning Xingchen lowered her voice when she said the last four words.

cough cough.

This time, it was Yunyi's turn to choke.

Ning Xingchen's lips curled up slightly: "Looks like you like it, brother."

"Then should I call you... Persimmon?"

Ning Xingchen's smile froze for a moment: "Could you pronounce it more accurately? It's 'Prince,' not 'Persimmon.'"

Yunyi sighed: "It's all the same."

"Fang Yunyi, I thought you were dead." Ning Xingchen immediately dropped his previous nonchalant attitude. "I didn't expect you to be doing so well."

"Hehe." Yun Yi scoffed, "Being sold out is good in your eyes? I didn't die because I'm capable. Why don't you try being sold out, Your Highness?" The original owner of this body has long since passed away and is no longer the same person. Unfortunately, this truth cannot be told.

Ning Xingchen was taken aback, realizing that his words and actions had been somewhat inappropriate, and couldn't help but raise his hand to touch his nose: "Since you're alive, why don't you go back to the capital?"

"What's the point of going back to Beijing? To be sold off by my scumbag father and stepmother again?"

"But if you don't go back, aren't you afraid the Third Prince will be taken away?"

“What’s mine can’t be taken away. And what can be taken away…” Yunyi downed the wine in her glass in one gulp, “is not mine.”

"There's something wrong with this wine, why did you drink it?"

"It's just something to liven things up. At worst, I can just find a man later, right?" Yunyi said nonchalantly.

"You...you..." Ning Xingchen's face suddenly turned red, and she stammered a little.

"Young Master Ning, you're actually shy?" Yun Yi scoffed. "It's said that the number one playboy in the capital, who partyes every night, is actually shy? It seems that the rumor is a bit exaggerated."

Ning Xingchen's expression turned cold, then she laughed: "Can't a playboy be shy? What is a playboy? It's someone who knows how to have fun and enjoy life, not a stone man."

“That makes sense.” Yun Yi smiled, then winked at him and lifted his chin. “Then, Prince Ning, how about we spend the night together?”
