Favoring a Hidden Mistress? Engagement Broken-Chapter 167 - 127

The guests arriving today, the girls in the brothel are of course aware.

Though Lu Ziyuan is known for his killings, and even being incredibly handsome, not many girls dare to think of winning his favor.

But now that they’ve been personally summoned by his trusted aides, they can’t help but misunderstand that they have caught the eye of the young and dashing General.

The two girls glanced at each other, both showing shyness, and gracefully ascended the stairs.

......

On the other side, Pei Yuqing was relaxed, resting his chin and watching the singing and dancing when the door was pushed open once more.

Chen Xixi, who was previously dragged out with her mouth covered, reentered.

She had changed out of the light dancing dress she wore earlier, now dressed as a noble lady from the Capital, in an enchanting yet dignified dress, her skirt luxurious, smiling charmingly.

In her graceful bearing, there’s a growing resemblance to Xie Wanqing.

Pei Yuqing cast a glance at her, and as she approached, he extended a finger to stop her at the shoulder, softly saying: "Don’t come near me, you reek."

His tone was calm, his eyes slightly tinged with the redness of inebriation, his voice somewhat hoarse.

Having been rejected multiple times, Chen Xixi didn’t show the disappointment she initially felt. Her eyebrows slightly raised at his words, she rapidly blinked her eyes in a lively and graceful manner, covering her lips with slender hands, saying in a voice only the two could hear: "Perhaps Lord Pei is unaware, there’s been a drug put in the wine on the table."

After speaking, she closely watched the handsome man before her, noticing a flash in his eyes but no change in expression, she wrinkled her brows slightly.

"The aphrodisiac powder is a stimulant used in brothels, potent for two hours, Mr. Lu has ordered, within these two hours, you can’t leave this room... Though it’s merely a stimulant, it’s never good for a man to be agitated for too long."

"Heed my advice, there’s no need to go against your own body’s limits."

As she spoke, she elegantly knelt down in a soft manner: "I know your heart holds only your cousin, but when a man goes out for a bit of leisure, she would surely understand, it absolutely won’t affect your relationship."

Her gaze, laced with seduction, slowly slid down from the man’s face to his throat, then further down, when she was pushed aside, throat gripped.

"Scram!"

Chen Xixi tumbled to the side, a flash of embarrassment quickly passing through her eyes, yet her hand already on her waist. In front of the assembled dancing girls, she began to loosen her clothing while crawling towards him, crying pitiably.

"I beg you, please take me, just pity me and save my life."

Wearing only a brightly colored undergarment, her arms tender as lotus roots, a tiny crimson mole prominently stood out on the inner side of her delicate arms.

"I am also a noble girl, if not for survival, how could I debase myself so, just seeking your compassion."

Tears on a beauty’s face, moving and sincere.

Pei Yuqing glanced at her, and before she could press close, he said: "If you dare come any closer, I’ll take your life."

His tone was indifferent, but no one doubted the truthfulness of his words.

Not only did Chen Xixi freeze in place, even the dozen or so dancing girls halted their movements, pale-faced, looking in this direction.

"Get out."

The door was quickly opened, a group of dancing girls hurriedly retreated.

Chen Xixi tightly pulled her clothes together, following closely behind, not daring to test the boundaries again.

Downstairs, Ming Feng and Ming Jian saw her disheveled appearance and asked: "How did it go?"

"He’s absolutely not a man!" Chen Xixi couldn’t hide her resentment: "I’ve never seen someone who, after drinking aphrodisiac wine, can remain so composed!"

She’d almost stripped herself bare, yet the man’s expression didn’t change, and he didn’t even spare her a glance.
