Chapter 32: Love at First Sight
The glass is full.
The white-clothed swordsman picked up the wine glass and drank it all. The wine is a good wine, but it has a slightly salty taste, and it will inevitably make people a little bitter when you drink it. The small wine glass didn't know how many tears she carried.
Wine is like sadness, turning into lovesick tears.
Tears have welled up unconsciously.
The white-clothed swordsman held the wine glass, looked at the candle flame dancing in the distance, and through her hazy eyes, she seemed to see the figure that made her girlish and shy again. Handsome, tall and erect, he seemed to her to have almost all the best of men.
Thoughts drifted far away. She seemed to think of that unforgettable night again, and it was on that night that she met Chi Qian for the first time in her life. It is precisely because of Chiqian that that night shines brightly and unforgettable in her whole life.
She remembered that it was three years ago, the year she was eighteen. It was the most beautiful flower season in a girl's life, but she also said that those days were bleak. She has a good figure, a good voice, and a good look, which is a gift from heaven for girls, but for her, this is a torture, a nightmare.
She is unlucky, she is a country man, she has no father and mother since she was a child, she is an orphan. She has lived with her grandmother since she was a child, relying on each other for her life, living a life of poverty and hardship. But this is how she was allowed to comfort her situation, and later she was ruthlessly deprived by God. When she was eleven years old, her grandmother died when she was seriously ill and had no money for medical treatment. At the age of twelve, in order to survive, she had to leave this small mountain village and come to Baijian City, the metropolis of Xiguo, alone. At the age of thirteen, she was forced by life to finally enter the fireworks venue.
When she was fifteen years old, she was favored by a noble son in Xiguo because of her good looks, and she became popular. Since then, her worth has doubled, and she has been active in the high-level entertainment industry at a young age.
At the age of seventeen, she was in the upper class of Xiguo, and almost everyone knew about it. She is a stunner in the eyes of the wealthy sons of Xiguo, and she is the lover of many young people in Xiguo. She wears gold and silver, and talks extraordinary. She has elegant interests, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and is proficient in everything. As fate would have it, she was born with the ability to hold a man's heart tightly in her hands.
In short, she is the kind of woman who makes men irresistible and unable not to love.
The heart is higher than the sky, and the body is low. She knew that no matter how high her status was in front of men, she would end up being just a plaything in their eyes, but this fire pit, if she jumped in, she would never get out again.
Once the spring is full of red and old, the flowers thank the people and the people don't know. Don't look at me today, I raised my eyebrows and let them follow me like dogs, and when people are old, how many people are around?
She's still young, and she doesn't want to be ruined here like this for the rest of her life.
She stayed up all night every day dancing with those boys, drinking, taking drugs, and pursuing intense pleasure. She was afraid, but she couldn't do anything about it, so she went to the other extreme.
Life must be happy, don't make the gold bottle empty to the moon. While she is young, she wants to splurge to her heart's content, including health. But when she had done this, and when she returned to her room, she felt a sense of emptiness, and she lay in bed, often waking up in the middle of the night, crying inexplicably.
The cold bed made her unable to bear the loneliness. There are countless men around her, but they all come for her beauty, and none of them can be relied on. No man could understand the loneliness and pain in her heart, and no man would send a word of comfort when she was alone sad and sighing.
They will only desperately ask for money to satisfy their carnal desires.
Three years have passed, and her originally sturdy body has declined. His physical condition became very poor, his face was as pale as paper, and he often coughed up blood inexplicably. But she is still so indulgent, because she has given up on her life. She just wanted to die as quickly as possible.
But despite this, she is still so beautiful, so charming, and she is also the dream lover of many men in the country of Xi.
But what could she do, she could only cater to these nobles, because they were her source of income, and every time she slept with them, she couldn't help but vomit. She traded her body for the gold coins in their hands.
Every day, every day I see a kind of man, a man who covets her beauty. This kind of man is nothing more than some playboys, rich businessmen, and even some martial artists, miscellaneous guys. She thought that her days were numbered, and her life was only like this, but she didn't expect it. When she was desperate for life, she met Chi Qian, a cute and unbeloved man.
She remembered that it was a sunny night, the moon in the sky that night was extraordinarily round, Lanxiang Xiaolou was as usual, the lights were brilliant, this is a prosperous place for smoke and willows, rich and gentle township, it is a place for men to have fun and vent their sensual desires, and Lanxiang Xiaolou is one of the coquettish, of course, there are some rich and powerful people who come and go here.
On the moon on the willow tops, that night, she stood on the stairs on the second floor with her sisters as before, listlessly watching the men and women below hugging and hugging, kissing here and there. It's a time of boredom.
Suddenly, the following became lively, and the old mother, who was rarely seen in Lanxiang Xiaolou on weekdays, suddenly rushed out, followed by two or three housekeepers. She already knew at the time that a great person was coming tonight, but who was it? She really couldn't think of it, because if she could let an old woman like an old woman go out to greet guests, the person who would come must be a big person.
The sisters and sisters beside her immediately gathered around, jumping up and down at the door, all wanting to see what kind of person they were.
"The Great General of the Protector Country, Chi Qian, has arrived!" the outsider suddenly shouted.
Suddenly, the beaded curtain rolled, and a large number of people walked in with a man in their arms. The man is tall, with a majestic instrument, a blue shirt, very decently cut, and the most surprising thing is that it is the sword he carries at his waist, shining in the light.
The man seemed to be in a bad mood tonight, as soon as he came in, he left the guards who followed him, and with the support of the old mother, he walked upstairs.
The people around him, when the man came in, had already changed color on their faces. They all got up and greeted the man.
"Hello General!"
"I don't know if the general is here tonight, I haven't greeted him from afar, and I still look at the general Haihan!"
It's nothing more than some polite words, anyway, they're all here to have fun, and it's not a shame to meet each other.
Only then did she know that this was the first sword in the Xi Kingdom, Chi Qian, she had heard of his good name for a long time, and heard many legends about him, such as he won the championship of the first sword in the world at the age of fifteen, and his appearance, as old as his swordsmanship. He's a completely beautiful man.
But she never thought that she would be lucky enough to meet such a person, because people like him rarely came to a place like them.
That time, she remembered that she was stupid, he had never seen such a magical man, not only her, but also the sisters next to her, who also looked at Chi Qian intently, and they were also doing nymphomaniac.
The old mother came up with a few guests, and these were also some well-known figures in the court, which were usually rare in such places.
They were placed in a very tasteful room by the old mother. Soon after the old mother left, someone suddenly came to her, told her which room to go to accompany the wine, said that there were some distinguished guests waiting for her, and told her that if she accompanied the guests, the old mother would reward her greatly, to put it bluntly, she would give her a lot of money.
She said yes because she was in dire need of money.
When she found her room, she knocked on the door nervously, and after a promise from inside, she pushed the door and entered.
She was stunned, she was usually a very adaptable girl, but now she found that her whole body was stiff. Because she found that the man facing the door was Chi Qian. In addition to Chi Qian, there were two men in the house, but they were both middle-aged, and there was already a girl next to them who accompanied the wine, and there was an empty stool next to Chi Qian, and he was the only one who had not accompanied the wine. She knew that all this was arranged by the old mother, because she was the famous brand here.
She found herself at no idea what to do, and stood there like a fool, stunned. Even the two girls who accompanied the wine began to be baffled.
At this time, Chi Qian suddenly smiled at her, meaning to let her sit down.
She bowed slightly, and then nervously walked over to Chi Qian and sat down. Chi Qian didn't care, he didn't speak, that night, he just kept drinking. It seemed that he was in a bad mood that day, so he used to drink to pass his time.
In less than a moment, the wine in his cup had been drunk. He will pour wine again. She seized the time to pour him the drink, and he suddenly smiled at her again. Meaning, you come, you come. The smile made her lose her mind, causing her to knock over the glass she had just poured and spill the wine all over his body.
She suddenly lost her face, hurriedly stood up, and helped Chi Qian wipe it in a panic. But at this time, a person sitting next to her couldn't stand it anymore, so he suddenly stood up and slapped her in the face, and the huge force in his palm directly knocked her to the ground.
