"Is she prettier than our young lady?" Sweetie objected immediately. A girl prettier than us sisters? Is there?
As the personal servants of Hong Gu and Chu Hong, similar to the personal maids in ancient times, every man they came into contact with was attracted by Hong Gu's beauty.
Naturally, they were showered with sweet words and flattery. It was all for their mistress, but many other men also drooled over them. In short, those scoundrels' lewd mouths made the two young girls quite arrogant, believing that besides their mistress Chu Hong, they were the most beautiful girls in the world.
Therefore, he was very dissatisfied with what Li Yang had just said and acted like a child.
Li Yang immediately perked up, an idea forming in his mind. He deliberately made things difficult: "In my opinion, that woman is a rare beauty in the world, but I have never seen your young lady, otherwise I could make a comparison!"
"Sweetie, is what he said believable?" Sour Sour turned her head and blinked her big eyes sweetly.
"I...I don't know either, but what he said seems to make sense. He doesn't seem to have seen Miss before." Sweetie pouted, her little brows furrowing.
"Why don't we let him go see Miss and see if he dares to say that again?" Suan Suan suggested.
“But…” Sweetie felt something was off, but she couldn’t figure it out, so she just stood there, stunned.
"Is your young lady so ugly? Afraid to compare herself with others?" Li Yang provoked her again with the drug.
"Nonsense! Our young lady is the most beautiful in the world! Humph, I'll let you see her!" The two women retorted to Li Yang in unison.
Li Yang was astonished. "Uh, is this what they call telepathy?"
"You two are connected at heart?" Li Yang swallowed hard.
"Hmph!" The two little girls tilted their heads back and ignored Li Yang. They turned to leave.
Li Yang felt a strong urge to follow, so he chased after Suan Suan and reached out to grab a handful of her hair.
"ah--"
Sure enough, both of them turned around and glared at Li Yang, their bright red lips pouting as they said, "What are you doing?"
"Oh, I'll see if you two are truly connected on a spiritual level!" Li Yang said excitedly.
"Tch! Boring!" Suan Suan rolled her eyes coquettishly.
"You're a bad person!" Sweetie glared at him, clearly dissatisfied.
"I'm not a bad person, I'm really not a bad person!" Li Yang said as he chased after them, backing away.
"If you're not a bad person, why did you deceive two little girls?" The sweet, soft, and gentle voice, with a pure Jiangnan flavor, could be heard even before the person was seen.
"Miss! He's a bad guy!" Sweet and sour shouted, running past Li Yang.
Li Yang hurriedly turned around, thinking to himself that it must be the real Hong Gu who had come out. When he looked back, his eyes widened immediately. Sure enough, she was graceful and elegant, with a delicate and charming appearance. Her bright eyes and white teeth were indescribable. A picture of a lady from Jiangnan appeared before his eyes as if she were in a painting.
Her dark, phoenix-shaped eyes shone with a glassy light, their slender, misty, and alluring quality like a rosy cloud. It was as if a person was hidden within her eyes, someone who could speak and had secrets.
As expected of Miss Chu Hong, the daughter of a millionaire. She is undoubtedly the top courtesan of the Silk Melody Pavilion. Her temperament and stunning beauty are far superior to those so-called divas.
"Are you Hong Gu Chu Hong?" After a long while, Li Yang took a deep breath, trying his best not to let his voice sound strange, and said in a calm and natural manner.
Chu Hong was slightly surprised. It was quite remarkable that someone so young could possess such composure. Even those billionaires who were used to seeing all sorts of beautiful women would have the same stunned expression upon first meeting her.
However, his eyes held far more greed and desire than Li Yang's, as if he wanted to strip her naked with his gaze alone.
Although Li Yang's eyes were also vacant, they were much cleaner, without so much filth.
"Now that you've seen the person, can you leave?" Chu Hong said softly, her voice as gentle as a spring breeze, devoid of any hint of worldly concerns.
"Miss, he... he was just lying to us?" Suan Suan asked, her eyes red-rimmed.
"He's a bad guy! A really bad guy!" Sweetie's eyes were also red as she glared at Li Yang with dissatisfaction, as if Li Yang were an irredeemable villain!
Li Yang was immediately embarrassed. Damn it, he had only teased them out of curiosity, but he didn't expect the two girls to be so delicate, and this one was already in tears. He couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness; they were truly pitiful to see.
"No, no, I really brought a beautiful woman with me. If you don't believe me, I'll call her over right now, she's right up ahead!" Li Yang explained, shaking his hand like a rattle-drum.
"Really?" Sweet and sour exchanged a glance and asked tentatively.
Chapter 442: A Beautiful Woman Who Knows Kung Fu
Hong Gu felt somewhat helpless. She had truly spoiled these two little girls, yet she couldn't bear to expose them to the darkness and filth of the world. She only taught them to play the zither, calligraphy, painting, brewing tea, and playing games. Alas, what should she do? She didn't know whether she was doing them a favor or harming them.
But he also watched coldly as Li Yang did what he did!
"Of course, to be honest, I only brought her here because she tripped me up." Li Yang casually recounted how he met Nan Xiangmei at the shaved ice stall, heard about Gao Shu Maria and Nan Xiangmei's martial arts competition, and in a moment of arrogance, boasted and belittled them. He was caught red-handed, and although he wasn't afraid of them, he was still a little embarrassed, especially since she was such a gentle and beautiful woman; he really couldn't bring himself to attack her. So he just made up a story, saying he'd invited her to invite Hong Gu to play the pipa, but she tripped him up, so he had no choice but to come along.
Of course, Zhao Lihua was not part of Li Yang's version. He was a completely innocent, model young man, just a bit of a smart aleck.
"You have quite the sharp tongue!" Hong Gu smiled noncommittally. That fleeting charm, however, left Li Yang momentarily stunned. The implication was clear: she didn't quite believe Li Yang's words.
He immediately snapped out of it and used his amazing smile to pat his chest at the sweet and sour girl, saying, "If you don't believe me, wait here, I'll go and bring her over for you to see!"
Suan Suan bit her finger, pondered for a moment, and looked at Tian Tian, who was also biting her finger and looking at her.
"How old are you? Still sucking your fingers!" Hong Gu scolded helplessly.
Sour and sweet hurriedly pulled out her finger, but pulled out a glistening thread of saliva. Li Yang secretly swallowed hard.
"Then, then call her over!" Sweet and Sour said hurriedly to Li Yang, her face flushed.
Before Chu Hong could object, Li Yang replied, "Don't worry, I'll call him over right away," and rushed out of the backyard.
Hong Gu rubbed her sweet and sour little head helplessly and said, "You've sold me out!"
"Sister, how did we sell you?" Suan Suan asked nervously.
