Shen Yaowei didn’t have the time to comfort Cang Ye. She heard the discussions of the other guests.
“Today is the monthly Hundred Flowers Banquet. The top courtesan will be personally performing. We’re in for a treat today.”
“It might not just be a feast for the eyes, who knows, there might be romantic fortunes awaiting us. At the Hundred Flowers Banquet, the courtesans might choose a man to spend the night with. We might be lucky enough to have such good fortune!” a man dressed in light blue clothing said.
These words caused the others to laugh.
The surrounding guests looked at the man with mocking gazes. One of the young masters said, “The top courtesan, Yue Hu, has never cared about the man’s identity or how much money he has. Even the young master has been rejected by Hua Kui a few times, let alone our identities.”
“That’s right. The top courtesan’s taste has always been extraordinary. Even if she wants to choose, she’ll only choose the young master this time. It has nothing to do with us.”
“As long as we see the top courtesan, Yue Hu, perform, we won’t have come for nothing.”
“Looks like Dugu Ming is coming too.” Cang Ye picked up the teapot and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear as he poured tea for Shen Yaowei.
Shen Yaowei watched as Cang Ye changed the wine glass in her hand into a teacup. She looked at him speechlessly and said, “Where have you ever seen a rich playboy come to a place like this and choose to drink tea instead of wine?”
“The wine is a hindrance,” Cang Ye said seriously with a straight face.
Shen Yaowei kept feeling that Cang Ye had an ulterior motive, but the reason he found was dignified. She couldn’t refute it and could only accept her fate.
However, she didn’t expect to encounter Dugu Ming so quickly.
Dugu Ming liked this top courtesan named Yue Hu so much. If they could come into contact with Yue Hu, they might be able to obtain some information about Dugu Ming.
Recalling Dugu Ming’s previous actions, Shen Yaowei’s heart suddenly burned with flames.
If she snatched the woman Dugu Ming thought highly of and ruined Dugu Ming’s good thing, would that man go crazy from anger?
Shen Yaowei only imagined Dugu Ming’s angry appearance and smiled.
At this moment, the bamboo music on the lake stopped. All the dancers returned to the pleasure boat.
Shen Yaowei watched the lights on the pleasure boat go out, and the cries of the other guests sounded in her ears.
“Look, the top courtesan, Yue Hu, is here!”
A cold and pleasant pipa sound sounded in the air. The Ethereal Spirit’s tune tugged at the heartstrings, attracting the gazes of everyone present at this moment.
Shen Yaowei was also attracted. She looked up at the woman who had descended from the sky.
No, it should be said that the woman was like a fairy descending from the sky.
The woman was wearing blue clothes and had silver hair and red eyes. The light veil around her body was suffused with a moonlight-like light, making the woman’s charming and pure face look perfect.
In particular, the woman’s cold and arrogant aura was like an iceberg that couldn’t be touched, but her appearance carried a fatal temptation, making people involuntarily want to approach her.
With a demonic aura and pure eyes, Yue Hu walked over in the moonlight. Her silver hair danced crazily in the air. Even without makeup, she was as beautiful as a dream.
For a moment, everyone was stunned and speechless by Yue Hu’s beauty. They only knew to look up at her as she descended from the sky.
A faint smile appeared on the corners of Yue Hu’s mouth. Her delicate fingers gently plucked the lute in her arms. The sound of the zither was pleasant, and ripples appeared on the calm lake under her feet.
Shen Yaowei saw Yue Hu’s toes on the lake. Then, a large number of white water lotuses crawled out of the water and opened up.
The largest water lotus in the middle turned into a throne. After releasing it, a green lotus seed pod grew out of the petals, just enough for Yue Hu to sit sideways..
