One after another, the famous courtesans took the stage to perform. Tian Feiyao remained calm and composed, seemingly engrossed in the show. For some reason, he had already determined that the so-called Peach Blossom Fairy was Yun'er.
In a daze, a voice pulled his thoughts back.
"The next performer is the most popular girl from the Drunken Flower Pavilion recently! The Peach Blossom Fairy!" Feng Si Niang smiled mysteriously, and the crowd erupted into enthusiastic cheers.
With a soft puff, the dim candlelight suddenly extinguished completely, plunging the entire hall into darkness.
"Senior Brother, be careful; there may be a trick!" Luo Qingyun warned as she scanned the surroundings, sensing that tonight might bring a storm.
Tian Feiyao nodded without speaking, quietly staring at the main hall below.
A melodious tune suddenly filled the air, a melody he had never heard before. Luo Qingyun relaxed a bit and chuckled, "This really resembles Xiao Yun'er's style!"
The center of the stage lit up abruptly, revealing a woman dressed in white gauze standing silently. Her long hair cascaded over her shoulders, her starry eyes slightly opened, and her red lips glimmered.
An indescribable allure and charm radiated from her.
She parted her lips and began to sing slowly.
"I came from springtime.
You said you wanted to part in autumn.
We promised not to feel sorrow for each other."
But how can my mood remain unaffected?
Why is it always like this?
You are deeply hidden in my heart.
I want to ask if you want to.
Accompany me until the end of time.
If love is so sorrowful,
Why not let me share it?
Day and night I ask you, but you do not answer.
How did you become like this?
I want to ask if you dare.
To love me as you once said.
I want to ask if you dare.
To be as crazy for love as I am.
Her expression was so sorrowful, paired with such lyrics, that everyone present was moved. A flicker of dark turbulence flashed in Tian Feiyao's eyes, but he quickly suppressed it without revealing any emotion.
Gu Yuniang looked at the people around her, feeling an infinite sense of calm. She knew he would definitely be here. This song was also meant for him.
A-Yao, you heard it, right?
As the song concluded, Gu Yuniang smiled.
At that moment, a man suddenly stood up from the crowd, his eyes fixed on her.
"This Peach Blossom Fairy, I want her! Ten thousand taels!" His words were firm and commanding, and his generous offer shocked everyone present.
Gu Yuniang felt a surge of pride; it seemed she was quite in demand!
"I'll offer fifteen thousand taels!"
"I'll bid twenty thousand taels!"
The crowd erupted, everyone eagerly participating in the bidding. Their sole target was the stunning woman on stage.
"Senior Brother, should we join in?" Luo Qingyun couldn't help but laugh, especially seeing the smug look in Xiao Yun'er's eyes; he could almost imagine how furious Senior Brother must be!
"Wait! I want to see just how much those people are willing to pay!" Indeed, Tian Feiyao was gritting his teeth! That damned woman seemed to be enjoying the scene of those men fighting over her.
Did she not realize she was his woman?
"I'll offer five hundred thousand taels... Golden!" The words stunned everyone in the room. The man who said this was the first to bid. At that moment, the hall fell silent, and everyone stared at him in shock.
It wasn't real gold and silver, but Golden!
Feng Si Niang and Gu Yuniang were also taken aback; this was an astronomical price! Even Tian Feiyao and others were astonished!
Gu Yuniang couldn't help but glance at the man, but as she did, a blinding flash of light surged through her mind, as if lightning had struck her head.
"Ah..." She was so frightened that she lost her composure, let out a shriek, and ran away.
The smile on Feng Si Niang's face froze, but being someone who had seen many storms, she cheerfully said, "Is there anyone willing to bid higher than this young master?"
There was a moment of silence below. Even though everyone present was wealthy, taking out such a large sum for a single **** was still painful!
"Alright, tonight's winner for the courtesan will be this young master!"
The man's lips still curled into a smile, and a playful glint flashed in his eyes.
At that moment, Tian Feiyao kept recalling Gu Yuniang's panic and surprise when she saw the man's face. As he thought about it, his pupils constricted. He stood up, ready to find that woman.
However, at that moment, he realized he had lost all strength in his body.
Luo Qingyun and Azure Dragon also sensed something was wrong; both felt weak and had no strength left.
"This tea is drugged!" A cold, bloodthirsty killing intent filled Tian Feiyao's eyes. He should have realized that Hua Fei couldn't simply be hiding from guilt; instead, she had been waiting for him here!
"Senior Brother, you and Azure Dragon go find Xiao Yun'er! I will immediately notify the subordinates of Dark Night Gate!" Luo Qingyun quickly steadied his mind, his eyes bursting with terrifying killing intent.
Very well, it has been many years since I last unleashed a massacre; it seems tonight will be an exception.
Gu Yuniang stumbled back to her room and slammed the door shut. She leaned against the door, her chest heaving violently. The image of the man from earlier still lingered in her mind.
It can't be, it can't be him, it must not be!
She repeatedly reassured herself in her heart, but how could anyone look so similar? It was as if they were cast from the same mold! Just then, she suddenly felt very hot.
Her hands unconsciously tore at her clothing, exposing her fair neck.
Yet, it was still so hot.
The heat seemed to spread from deep within her heart, making her entire body feel uncomfortable. Vaguely, there was a stirring within her. She suddenly realized with a jolt that she must have been affected by the herbal medicine!
She recalled the tea that Feng Si Niang had given her!
Her consciousness began to blur when suddenly, she heard Feng Si Niang's voice at the door.
"Peach Blossom, hurry and open the door! That young master is waiting!"
Strangely compelled, she walked forward and opened the door.
The man was momentarily taken aback; the woman before him was disheveled, revealing her fair neck. Every movement seemed to exude an aura of seduction. Any man who saw her would likely find it hard to resist.
Feng Si Niang smiled proudly as she quickly pushed the wealthy patron inside and closed the door.
"Hehe..." Gu Yuniang giggled, rushing forward to embrace the man before her, her body rubbing against him closely.
Soon, the man felt a tightening in his lower abdomen, wishing he could immediately take this woman down.
However, reason still prevailed.
"You've been drugged!" He kindly reminded her, not wanting to force her into anything.
"I want... I want you!" Gu Yuniang breathed softly, suddenly kissing the man's lips gently. At that moment, she resembled a captivating fairy.
The man's mind exploded with a loud bang; he suddenly gripped Gu Yuniang's shoulders tightly and kissed her fiercely.
By the time Gu Yuniang responded and felt a bit more comfortable, she had completely lost her rationality and was acting wildly!
"Wait! Do you know who I am?" The man ultimately couldn't bear it; after all, she had been drugged!
"Aren't you my husband?" Gu Yuniang said while unbuttoning his clothes, gazing at him with her big watery eyes. She was infinitely innocent and infinitely alluring.
Time seemed to freeze.
Wen Shaojun gasped for breath, not even having the mind to ponder the strange words coming from the woman’s mouth; he simply felt that it was an intimate term.
