Chapter 192: Flirting at Night

Things turned out just as Xiao Zhengdu had guessed.

At night, the invited courtesan, Mr. Yuheng, was brought to Lou Xiao.

She was wearing thin clothes and flipping through a book in the flickering candlelight. Yuheng stood outside her door holding the zither, and no matter how coldly she treated him, he did not move at all.

Lou Xiao left him alone for a long time, but Yu Heng said nothing, neither begging for mercy nor making excuses.

Why did he still refuse to leave even though I clearly told him he didn't need any service?

"come in."

In the end, she was soft-hearted. Lou Xiao leaned on the couch and said to Master Yu Heng, who had lowered his head and walked in, then knelt down in front of her with his head lowered.

"Look up, you better give me a reason why I have to stay here."

Do you really think she is a lustful person?

Yu Heng was silent for a moment. As the candlelight flickered, he lowered his head and could only see her shadow cast on the ground.

Slowly raise your head, your vision gradually moves upwards,

There was a candlelight on the couch. She was wearing only a thin dress, with her hair loose and barefoot. She leaned her body, with no extra expression on her face. It really looked like she was going to chase him out the next moment.

Yu Heng didn't dare to look directly at her. His gaze fell on her toes which were half covered by the corner of her clothes. He blinked and looked away.

"If I leave now, there will be no Master Yuheng tomorrow."

Lou Xiao sat up straight after hearing this, "What do you mean? Someone wants to kill you? Yue Pengyu is not that kind of person."

Yu Heng shook his head and refused to speak. Lou Xiao urged him with a slightly impatient tone, "If you have something to say, just say it. Don't waste time."

Yu Heng, who felt that he had a rough idea of ​​Lou Xiao's personality, finally raised his head.

"Hengjian Villa spent ten thousand taels of silver, so it's not just for me to play a piece of music. If I fail to serve you well, the position of the most beautiful lady tomorrow will belong to someone else."

Lou Xiao disagreed, "Then leave the painting house. You are so talented, there is no place for you anywhere."

She thought it was simple, but the reality...

Yu Heng smiled bitterly and said, "My lord... things are not that simple... I can't leave until I pay back the money I owe."

He hugged the zither tightly in his arms, "Now that I have lost my position as the most beautiful courtesan, I will have to stay in the pleasure boat for the rest of my life, and there will be no chance of turning my life around."

He summoned up the courage to beg her, "I know that you despise me, but I beg you, please don't drive me out...

If you think I'm an eyesore, you can just let me kneel here."

Lou Xiao had no objection, she stepped onto the floor barefoot, got off the couch and went to wash up.

"Kneel if you want."

What a cruel adult.

Yu Heng was shocked, and his eyes followed her back.

The words were out and he couldn't take them back. He could only kneel there and not move.

There was silence all around, only the candlelight in front of him danced with the night wind.

Thinking back to the information I had heard before, this Duke of Zhenguo was quite powerful, and she would definitely be able to detect if I was being lazy.

Was she testing herself, or was she really ignoring him?

Yuheng gradually lost the feeling in his legs. He stared at the candlelight in front of him numbly, feeling sad.

It’s not bad that I didn’t get kicked out, right?

He thought about attaching himself to the beautiful Duke Zhenguo. If he could win her favor, he would be able to leave the quagmire of Luoyang Houseboat soon and fly freely in the sky.

But during the day, she looked at him calmly, with no other thoughts in her mind...

She had a pleasant conversation with King Youshan, and ignored his carefully prepared performance.

He knew very well that the Duke of Zhenguo was definitely not someone who could be seduced by beauty.

And between King Youshan and her...

If he gets involved in matters between adults, he won't even know how he died.
