Chapter 743: Chapter 743 Big Bull Chapter 743: Chapter 743 Big Bull The second-floor windows were fitted with clear glass, offering an unobstructed view of the hall below.
The decor here had some similarities to Jingshan Town, only the area was much larger and the furnishings more luxurious.
Xuexue was observing attentively when a knock sounded from outside…
Xuexue turned around and responded.
A servant boy entered, a broad smile on his face, “Master, sorry to disturb you, I’ve brought you some hot tea and snacks.”
Xuexue glanced over indifferently, “Just put them on the table.”
“Sure!” The servant quickly placed the exquisite snacks and hot tea carefully onto the table.
“Master, the girls at Qinger Building are each beautiful as flowers. Why sit here all alone? Why not invite a few girls over to keep you company? It would make your trip to Qinger Building worthwhile.” The servant boy was quite talkative, arranging the snacks on the table while chattering nonstop.
This servant boy was pretty sharp, serving tea while also trying to attract more customers.
Xuexue turned to him and asked with a smile, “Young man, what’s your surname?”
“Master, I am called Big Bull.”
“Big Bull?” Xuexue paused, sizing up the servant boy before her. He appeared to be about fifteen or sixteen, with a delicate face. Suddenly feeling a bit disappointed, she thought to herself that this Big Bull wasn’t the one she had in mind. It seemed she was overthinking.
“Big Bull, why would you work at a place like Qinger Building?”
Qinger Building was essentially a Brothel; known to not have a great reputation, respectable families generally did not prefer working in such places.
“I’ve been an orphan since childhood, growing up on the kindness of many, wandering during the day and sleeping in the City God Temple at night. The Elder from my village, feeling pity for me, had someone find this job for me in the Capital. It’s pretty good here; they provide three meals a day and I get paid at the end of the month.”
The servant boy was truly guileless, spilling his entire life story to Xuexue, whom he was meeting for the first time.
Just then, Nanny Sun hurried in, exclaiming as she entered, “Ay, Master! There were so many guests today, I’ve only just managed to come over. I hope you won’t mind.”
The servant boy looked confused, “Nanny Sun, aren’t you mixed up? There’s no master here, only a master.”
Nanny Sun looked up, glared at him harshly, and said gruffly, “What are you doing here? Get out now. And from now on, don’t call yourself Big Bull, call yourself Little Bull, understood?”
“Oh!” The servant boy’s face fell as he retreated.
Xuexue asked, “Why were you so harsh with him? He seems quite pitiful.”
“Hehe, Master, he’s just a roustabout at the brothel, doing heavy lifting and serving tea. If you don’t like him, I can fire him right away and replace him with some pretty little girls to please the guests,” Nanny Sun said with a smile plastered on her face.
She thought Xuexue didn’t approve of having a man serving tea in the brothel, hence the clarification.
“Who said to fire him? Let him work. He’s clever, and that’s good.”
“Huh?” Nanny Sun looked puzzled, “Didn’t you dislike him, Master?”
“Who said I didn’t like him? It was you who started rambling the moment you came in, wasn’t it?”
Nanny Sun smiled sheepishly, realizing that, in fact, it was indeed the case.
