Chapter 1933 - Master and servant (1/2)

If other people were here, they would find their relationship rather strange, where the Procuress was actually afraid of her star courtesan.

“Madame, have all the arrangements made previously cancelled.” Chun Yao said.

“Why? All those people with appointments made for later will…..”

“Is Madame questioning my decision?” Chun Yao was seated before the zither, her gaze gentle as she looked at the Procuress, but the Procuress could not help feeling a chill run up her spine.

“Your subordinate wouldn’t dare!” The Procuress immediately backed down.

“Then go make the necessary arrangements. Such a small task wouldn’t be hard for someone like you.” Chun Yao said with a smile.

“My Lady, can your subordinate ask why are you choosing to abandon so many people just for those four people here tonight? Is it really worth it?” The Procuress asked hesitantly.

Chun Yao did not get angry this time, but merely lowered her head and began to play the zither. It was only after she finished a piece that she opened her mouth to say in a soft voice. “Not four people, but just one.”

“That little young master?”

“That’s right.” Chun Yao propped her chin in her left hand as she picked at the zither strings casually with her right. With a subdued smile, she then said: “His soul is very delicious, and it seems to have special powers. Just one person alone would be more superior than that entire lot of trash!”

“But it looks like that person’s identity could be some high noble, are we going to snatch it from him?”

“Have you forgotten our rule? Only when a soul that is handed over voluntarily would be fresh and delicious. Even the slightest bit of harm inflicted on a soul wouldn’t be good.” Chun Yao murmured.

“Then why didn’t my Lady try to make them stay a little longer?” The Procuress asked.

“If it’s so easy for him to have a taste of it, would he still cherish it? Only what is hard to get will taste the best. Do you still need me to teach you how a man’s mind works?”

“I understand.”

“Now go make the arrangements. The next time you try to come question my decisions, you can just go seek punishment from the house on your own!”

“Yes, my Lady.”

“Go ahead.”

The Procuress left and there was a pleasant zither sound behind her. She looked up at the moon above her head and felt that the night was extremely cold.

Sima You Yue and the others came out of the Spring Brook Pavilion and went straight back to the inn where they were staying. Only when the people behind them had confirmed that they were staying there did they turn and leave.

Sima You Yue and Wu Lingyu stood in front of the window and looked outside the bustling street.

“Those people left, it seems that they just came to confirm where we stay.” Wu Lingyu said.

“Don’t worry about it,” Sima You Yue said, “Isn’t Black Shadow awake yet?”

“No, that useless guy, it seems that he needs to be called back to retrain.” Huan said solemnly.

“Don’t be mad, the sound of the zither was indeed abnormal. Even for me, there was a momentary loss of consciousness at the time. It should be a sound attack.” Sima You Yue said.

“It’s really a sound attack, and it’s the kind that doesn’t enter the stream.” Wu Lingyu said, “The sound of the zither will confuse people’s minds and make people admire her. Judging from the way she plays the zither, today’s one was just average. I’m afraid there are other more powerful moves.”

“Generally, it can confuse people’s minds, and even more powerful, I am afraid that the person who listens would no longer be oneself.” Wu Lingyu said.

“Sound attack is really troublesome.” Huan agreed.

“Ah—” Sima You Yue yelled suddenly, startling the two of them. Before asking her what was wrong, she grasped Wu Lingyu’s arm and shouted: “Did you see her? You still pretend! Don’t blink! Did you look secretly? If you just want to look honestly, since I took you along, I won’t mind you looking but, why did you secretly look?! I won’t be jealous or anything. .”

Wu Lingyu’s arm was held in an iron grip. Hearing what she said, he looked at her glaring expression and he was speechless.

Won’t be jealous? Then what was this? Why was she twisting his arm for?

“I just glanced over when I noticed that the sound of the zither was different, and I looked at her fingers.” He explained.

“Really?” Sima You Yue blinked her big eyes.
