Chapter 20: If I Touch Her, I Will Die Horribly, Right?
It was now evening, and as the lanterns were lit, the area outside Spring Wind Pavilion was bustling with carriages and horses, with countless “scholars and gentlemen” being warmly welcomed by the servants as they entered the building.
Many of them were familiar with each other, exchanging greetings like “brother” and “young master.”
Many people came, and their identities were extraordinary, but very few owned private rooms.
After all, Spring Wind Pavilion was extremely high-end, and ordinary officials’ sons couldn’t afford it. Most people gathered in the main hall.
The hall was spacious with about hundreds of seats, each decorated uniquely and ingeniously.
In the middle of the hall, there was a murmuring stream and wisps of mist spread, forming a picturesque scene amidst the cheers of the crowd.
In the misty scene, a woman slowly emerged, with delicate eyebrows and long, slender eyes. She gently stroked the jade guqin, producing celestial music.
Such a scene made the woman appear like a celestial fairy.
And this was just the beginning.
Suddenly, the bronze mirror hanging in the center of the hall emitted a bright light, attracting everyone’s attention. Within the bronze mirror, another woman’s figure appeared.
She was graceful, dancing with passionate and fiery movements, captivating countless onlookers, stirring up a fiery passion within them.
In the flowing water, a moonlight shadow appeared, and within the moonlight, a woman in white softly sang…
Throughout the hall, there were continuous wonders.
A total of eight extraordinary beauties showcased their talents.
Each of them had different styles, some were aloof, some were fiery, some were delicate…
No matter how picky a man was, he could always find his favorite among these eight women. This could be seen from the constant cheers in the hall.
“These ancient people aren’t any less creative than modern ones!” Ye Ning’s eyes widened.
He thought that after the bombardment of the information age, he would be immune to such seductive tactics from beautiful women. Today, he realized that there were always people beyond one’s expectations.
Take, for example, the methods used to enhance the beauty of these women. They were all celestial techniques, indicating that there was more than one cultivator behind the scenes manipulating everything.
From this, it could be seen that Spring Wind Pavilion was indeed extraordinary.
“Just now, those who appeared were Miss Ying, Miss Ruyan…” Liu Sanyuan listed them all, smiling, “These eight people are the top courtesans of Spring Wind Pavilion, and countless people in the entire capital city are infatuated with them.”
Ye Ning understood.
He noticed that after these flashy performances, the doors to the lofts above the main hall opened one after another.
The eight stunning courtesans either held jade flutes, lightly played the guqin, or posed gracefully…
It was as if they had come from an unreal fairyland and arrived in the mortal world.
The men present immediately became red-eyed.
Those wolf-like gazes, those who understood knew.
“Spring Wind Pavilion is quite skilled in marketing. They use some flashy tactics first to arouse interest, and then the courtesans appear. Isn’t it enticing?” Ye Ning glanced at another side, his gaze fixed on the loft.
Above the eight courtesans, there was another loft, but its door remained closed, without opening.
He was curious.
“Brother Liu, what’s the situation there?”
“You finally noticed!” Liu Sanyuan breathed a sigh of relief, and according to the explanation he had prepared long ago, he smiled and said, “That’s the person I mentioned earlier. The one you can’t afford to offend.”
Ye Ning raised his eyebrows, waiting for the continuation.
“Inside Spring Wind Pavilion, there is a Miss Xiao, who holds a special status and ranking above all the other courtesans.
“Anyone who has seen her is mesmerized. Unfortunately, she rarely meets with people.
“For so many years since Spring Wind Pavilion was established, the number of guests received by Miss Xiao can be counted on one’s fingers. Moreover, they only discuss matters of music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. No one has been able to have intimate contact with her.”
Liu Sanyuan’s eyes sparkled, and a playful smile appeared on his face.
Ye Ning knew that this was a lecherous smile.
“In other words, this Miss Xiao is a ‘Qingguan’ person?” Ye Ning guessed.
“A Qingguan person sells art, not themselves, but Miss Xiao neither sells art nor herself. She regards money as worthless and only values talent. Very few people can catch her eye.”
Liu Sanyuan said.
“Although she is in the midst of worldly affairs, she is beyond worldly affairs.
“To meet her, the only possibility is to impress her with talent.
“But even if you impress her, you can only meet her. As for intimate contact, you can only dream about it. This woman, you can’t touch her.”
At these words, Ye Ning felt ecstatic.
Here it is!
This is like falling asleep and having someone bring you a pillow!
A forbidden person of a big shot?
Related to the palace?
Mysterious and profound background?
Ye Ning’s eyes were ablaze as he looked towards the loft on the top floor.
If I touch such a woman, I will definitely die horribly, right?
