Chapter 18: Drinking Tea

"Has your business been so deserted all the time?" Bai Mingyue thought for a while and asked.

The girls thought that Bai Mingyue would ask something, but they didn't expect it to be this unreasonable question. All of them couldn't react.

"Childe, why do you ask this?" A girl asked suspiciously.

"Don't ask what you shouldn't, just answer my questions." Bai Mingyue's face was a little serious.

Seeing this, the original hippie smiling faces faded a lot, and their faces became much more serious.

"It wasn't like that in our shop, our beauty house was the most popular brothel in town. It's just that since the Spring Flower Courtyard opened opposite, there has been no business on our side. The girl sitting next to Bai Mingyue said.

"How so? It stands to reason that your store is an old store, and there should be many old customers, so how can you lose to a newly opened store? Bai Mingyue asked in some surprise.

"Childe doesn't know that the owner behind the Spring Flower Courtyard has a lot of origins. Since the beginning of the Spring Flower Courtyard, we have been secretly suppressing us, and our proprietress has no background and no power, so she can't fight others at all. One of the girls lowered her voice and said mysteriously.

When Bai Mingyue heard this, her eyes flashed. I didn't expect there to be such an insider.

However, these words reminded her that it would not be easy to gain a foothold in this city without the backing of forces.

"Do you know who is the boss behind the Spring Flower Garden?" Bai Mingyue thought for a while and asked.

"Of course I know, it's the second prince of the dynasty."

Second prince? Long Yun?

Bai Mingyue didn't expect it to be Long Yun. But if you think about it, you can see it. It's no wonder that Long Yun always goes to the Spring Flower Courtyard from time to time, and also includes the former Spring Flower Courtyard top medal Rou'er into the mansion.

But then again, if Chunhuayuan had Long Yun as its backing, then it would not be easy for her to open another brothel.

What can I do?

"Childe? Childe, what are you thinking? Seeing Bai Mingyue in a daze, the girl sitting next to her shook her arm.

Bai Mingyue came back to her senses and looked at the girls surrounding her. After thinking about it, he said, "Okay, that's all for today." Tell you boss lady that my son will come to her in a few days. ”

With that, Bai Mingyue got up and left.

When the girls saw her leave like this, they looked at each other one after another, not knowing why.

However, Bai Mingyue didn't have the heart to pay attention to them. Walking out of the Beauty Courtyard, her thoughts were already drifting away.

Before, she only thought about starting a business, but she didn't think that if she wanted her career to go smoothly, she would need to have a right background to rely on.

Although she is the eldest lady of the General's Mansion, her status is not low. But she didn't want to do business in her own name. Because she knew that once her father and mother knew, they would definitely oppose it. What's more, now her opponent is the second prince of the dynasty, and her identity as the eldest lady of the General's Mansion is not worth mentioning at all.

Bai Mingyue thought about things so distractedly, and no one noticed when she came to her. Just like that, I hit my head on it.

Bai Mingyue came back to her senses after eating pain, but when she looked up, she found that the person in front of her turned out to be Long Mu.

Seeing Long Mu, Bai Mingyue was shocked. But it soon calmed down. Thinking that she had been specially dressed up today, he must not have recognized her.

If she thought about it, Bai Mingyue said with a calm face and an apologetic face: "Childe, I'm really sorry, I don't know on purpose." ”

Long Mu looked at the person in front of him, and a smile narrowed in the corner of his eyes. "Miss Bai, don't you know this king? What can I do? Miss Bai once again injured Ben Wang. ”

Bai Mingyue suddenly looked up at him with a shocked expression. I really didn't expect her to be like this, and he would still recognize her.

But listening to his words, Bai Mingyue's face darkened.

She hurt him again? How dare this guy say it. If you want to say that she was injured, she was injured, and after hitting twice, she had a concussion.

"Lord Wang, are you sharp-eyed? Why do you always recognize me at a glance? Bai Mingyue looked frustrated.

Long Mu ignored her face. He looked at the beauty courtyard that Bai Mingyue had just walked out of, and then looked at Bai Mingyue in men's clothes in front of him. The corners of his mouth hooked up with an indistinct smile.

"Miss Bai seems to like to go to a brothel? Don't you have any fetishes? ”

Hearing this, Bai Mingyue looked at Long Mu, and slowly reacted to what he meant. She was ashamed and annoyed, and her face was ugly. She didn't talk to Long Muduo anymore, glared at him, and left from him.

"Miss Bai, you hurt this king, do you want to leave again?" Long Mu turned to look at Bai Mingyue's back and said.

Bai Mingyue paused. However, before she could turn around, Long Mu had already walked to her side. said: "Miss Bai, if this king is free today, I will give you a chance to apologize." ”

Bai Mingyue frowned and looked up at him. "What do you want?"

"It's not what this king wants, but how do you plan to apologize sincerely, Miss Bai?" Long Mu raised his eyebrows and said.

"Lord Wang, you won't ask me to invite you to dinner again, will you? You are a big prince, you shouldn't lack that meal, right? Why do you want to embarrass me like that? Don't you know I'm poor? Bai Mingyue said, looking at Long Mu's eyes with a hint of contempt.

When Long Mu saw her like this, he didn't care. There was still a shallow, unmeaning smile on his face.

"It's okay to skip dinner, so how can Miss Bai apologize?" Long Mu said disappreciatively.

Bai Mingyue pursed her mouth, she was now worried about her business plan, and she really didn't have the time and energy to deal with Long Mu.

I was looking for a reason to send Long Mu away. But at this moment, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration and looked up at Long Mu. Only this time the gaze was too hot. So much so that Long Mu was a little uncomfortable with her.

"What? Miss Bai has thought of a way to apologize? Long Mu pretended to be calm and said.

Bai Mingyue looked at Long Mu for a while, and a big smile suddenly appeared on her face. "That's right! I've got it. Lord Wang, it's still early, just eat, or I'll invite you to tea! ”

Facing Bai Mingyue's sudden enthusiasm, Long Mu's eyes flashed. I don't know what she wants to do.

But......

"Since Miss Bai is sincere to meet, how can this king excuse himself, let's go!" Long Mu said. However, he didn't go first, but waited for Bai Mingyue to lead the way.

Bai Mingyue didn't expect him to agree, and there was a burst of joy on her face. Then he turned around and took Long Mu to a teahouse.

Although she didn't want to break the bank, considering Long Mu's identity, she still had to come to a good private room.

Long Mu saw that Bai Mingyue took the private room by himself without him opening his mouth this time, and he was very satisfied. But he was still curious about what she was going to do. He didn't believe that Bai Mingyue would be so kind, and suddenly invited him to tea.

When she came to the private room, Bai Mingyue beckoned Long Mu to sit down, and when the guy served tea and snacks, she personally made tea for Long Mu.

"I heard that the tea in this teahouse is good, please taste it."

Seeing her so warmly welcomed, Long Mu looked at her a little more in his eyes. However, he didn't think much about it, picked up the teacup handed by Bai Mingyue, and drank it all.

Putting down the teacup, he didn't speak, but looked at Bai Mingyue. He wanted to see what she was going to do.
