I am born a beauty, and I am supreme

Chapter 149

The Emperor sent the Superintendent of the Imperial Workshops, clearly worried that the Detective Battalion would be intimidated by his authority and unable to "persuade" him to return. Therefore, he used the Superintendent of the Imperial Workshops, which was beyond the jurisdiction of the Six Ministries, to "invite" him.

Chu Zhen's gaze was cold.

Seeing his stern expression, Beitang Yujian smiled faintly, took a step forward, and blocked his way.

Chu Zhen turned her gaze to him.

Suddenly it occurred to me: if Leyan were here, she would probably do the same thing.

In an instant, warmth and tenderness welled up in my once cold heart.

Chapter 197 of "Turning the Tender Land Upside Down": Performing a Double Act

The answer that Chu Gexing had not expected or had time to ponder was that the ins and outs of the matter were as follows.

On that day, Su Keren, the big boss of Diancui Pavilion, personally came to the door to "force the debtor to pay".

Chu Gexing had no money, so Su Keren pointed out the way.

However, the initial plan was for Tang Leyan to perform.

Upon hearing this shocking suggestion, Tang Leyan really wanted to slap someone.

However, what can she do when she's under someone else's roof? This "weak" body can't always be a burden to others.

However, at first she thought it was Chu Gexing who was going to perform.

The plot development was so bizarre, it's infuriating!

While he was lying in bed, seething with resentment, he heard Su Keren coughing strangely outside the bed curtains.

This is probably what they mean by birds of a feather flocking together, or having a tacit understanding.

Tang Leyan instantly caught the unusual coded message floating in the air.

Could it be...? um...?

She was suspicious.

Outside the tent, Su Keren asked with a smile, "What do you think, Little Chu'er? What do you think of this suggestion?"

The Chu Song remained silent.

Tang Leyan was very surprised.

At first, she thought Chu Gexing would be overjoyed and immediately raise his hands and feet in agreement.

But he didn't.

The man's silence was almost abnormal.

Tang Leyan's mind raced. Su Keren slowly said, "Little Chu'er, what are you thinking about... Oh, hehehe... Look at that expression. Is it because you're reluctant to let your little lover go out... uh, show his face in public?"

The voice was slow and quiet, and although it sounded somewhat joking, for some reason, Tang Leyan felt that Su Keren's words seemed to have a hidden meaning. It was as if the woman wasn't speaking to Chu Gexing, whom she was currently conversing with, but rather to her inside the tent.

Strange, strange, strange.

This is a strange phenomenon.

Tang Leyan pricked up her ears, sensing something amiss.

Chu Gexing snorted coldly: "What nonsense are you talking about!"

Su Keren seemed relieved. She patted her chest and said, "I'm relieved now. Little Chu'er, did you agree? Hehe, I was wondering what would happen if you didn't agree. If I couldn't bear to let your... cough cough, did you have to go, Little Chu'er? Although, Little Chu'er, you should definitely be able to do it, oh hehehe..."

Upon hearing these words, Tang Leyan trembled, and for some reason, a sudden flash of inspiration struck her.

As Su Keren spoke, she stole glances at the red curtain.

She hesitated just now, as if she wanted to say something but then stopped herself. She had originally intended to suggest that Chu Gexing go out and perform on stage.

However, intimidated by the murderous look in the other person's eyes, and considering that she still had decades of power and influence in Fengcheng, she decided to be careful and risk her life. So, she cleverly changed her approach. This is the legendary strategy of using someone else's strength against them, striking from afar.

Moreover, judging from the current situation, Chu Gexing's hesitant and reluctant manner suggests that the bullfight was quite successful.

The person in the red tent couldn't help but laugh gleefully when she made that suggestion.

Despite their brief encounter and lack of prior acquaintance, Su Keren had already deduced that there must be some unspeakable bond or relationship between the person in the tent and Chu Gexing.

She decided to take a gamble.

At this moment, she needs an answer, an assistant to help her, and a partner to act opposite her.

Just as Su Keren harbored ulterior motives and Chu Gexing was conflicted, the air around them fluctuated strangely.

The person inside the tent finally spoke.

A slightly somber voice slowly said, "Since that's the case... I... sigh. I can't refuse... who told me to owe you so much, cough cough."

The last two coughs were so realistic they were indistinguishable from the real thing. The indistinguishable real coughs only added to the sorrowful tone of the sound.

In an instant, Su Keren's heart quickly calmed down.

clever!

She was clever, and the people in the tent were even cleverer.

He understood her thoughts in an instant and cooperated perfectly; he could easily be nominated for a performance award.

However, those who are in the drama but cannot see the situation clearly are others.

The Song of Chu.

Her goal as a big boss, from the beginning to the present.

----Little Chu'er, do you feel troubled? Reluctant? Heartbroken? Then... just obediently nestle into your sister's soft embrace!

Boss Su smiled smugly to himself.

As for Chu Gexing, he felt very strange when Tang Leyan agreed to perform on stage with a "righteous indignation" and a "slight helplessness".

It wasn't happiness, nor sorrow, but emptiness, a complete blank.

It's like a traveler standing in the vast wilderness of time and space, unable to see the direction, without a place to settle, as if there is no ground beneath his feet and no goal ahead.

Why did she actually agree?

Isn't this person self-respecting?

Why did she agree so easily? Her injuries hadn't healed yet.

Is this person crazy?

Chu Gexing frowned, his mind in turmoil.

The chaos stems from concern.

The chaos caused by his concern made him lose his usual keen observation skills and wit.

Under the combined influence of Su Keren and Tang Leyan, he finally lost his mind.

"Sister Su, those people won't take advantage of me, will they?" Tang Leyan asked.

Her voice was somewhat faint, as if she felt he wasn't worried enough, so she added, "I don't have any martial arts skills right now, I have no ability to protect myself at all. If, if I get... if I get that kind of thing, I really..." She even seemed to sniffle emotionally.

Chu Gexing was stunned.

Was Tang Leyan sexually harassed?

This strange thought flashed through my mind.

He immediately looked at his own palm, and a strange expression appeared on his face.

Her tofu...

He once...

No, no, no, what was he thinking? It's just that he really couldn't imagine the scene of Tang Leyan being surrounded by a group of filthy men and being groped. It was not just scary, it was terrifying to death.

"No, don't worry, I'll protect you," Su Keren said understandingly.

Although that's what she said, the expression on her face clearly said: Hahaha, just wait obediently for me to push you into the fire pit, little lamb!

Chu Gexing's heart clenched.

“Oh, that’s good. This way, I can pay off my debt. After all, I’m the one who’s dragging you down… cough… then please arrange the rest, Mr. Su. I will do my best…” Tang Leyan said again.

"Don't worry, don't worry, our guests at Diancui Pavilion are all very well-behaved. I'll go right away."

"Yes, thank you very much, sister."

"My dear sister, your looks are sure to drive all men crazy..."

Su Keren's appearance can only be described as "sleazy".

"That's not necessarily true!" a cold voice rang out.

He finally couldn't hold back anymore.

Su Keren and Tang Leyan were both overjoyed.

"Oh, Little Chu'er, do you have a different suggestion?" Su Keren turned her back to Chu Gexing, trying to hide her smile, then turned around, frowned innocently, and stared at the stunning beauty in front of her.

“She can’t go!” Chu Gexing said.

Well said! Continue!

Su Keren thought.

----Waaah... You finally spoke! You scared me to death...

Tang Leyan thought.

"Why?" Boss Su asked innocently.

“She…is injured!” Chu Gexing steeled his heart.

"What should we do then..." Boss Su sighed softly.

"You...you don't need to worry about me, I can handle it." Tang Leyan said quietly.

Chu Gexing sighed, "I...I..."

The charade between Su and Tang came to a perfect end.

The key answer to "Little Sheep's Song of Chu" was revealed, sealing the deal and eliciting thunderous applause.

He finally found his direction and his heart was no longer lost.
