Chapter 445 (1/2)

Although Athena didn’t interact much with humans, she knew what brothels were. She’d read a lot of material on humans, she was very familiar with how humans lived.

“Brother, is that how Miss Athena always treats you as her elder brother?” Aili asked innocently because he realised Athena seemed to be upset at Ye Lang about everything and Aili was accidentally dragged into it too.

However, that meant Athena didn’t really care about him.

“No, she’s usually alright. I’m not sure why she was upset either, it must be you.” Ye Lang shook his head, pushing the blame on Aili.

“...” Hey, what’s that supposed to mean?! I’m innocent! Aargh!

“Hmmph!” Athena glared at Aili. “Stay away from him, don’t ruin the kid’s mind with your filth!”

“...” Aili fell silent. Ye Lang was the one who brought up the brothel first! “Miss Athena, our brother here was the one who…”

“He’s not your brother!” raged Athena.

“Uh, what should I call him?” Aili was stunned for a moment.

“Call him Master!” Athena waved casually.

“Master?!” Aili was stunned once again. Master?! Why would I call him Master?! Would that make you ‘my lady’ then? I’d be ranked lower than you both for no reason!

Athena then followed her statement with, “Never mind, scrap that. What I mean is that you’re banned from going near him!”

This meant Aili wasn’t even qualified to call Ye Lang his master… At this point, he could care less. However, it was in the future when he realised this kid was a master indeed.

After shaking off Aili, Athena asked Ye Lang, “Tell me why you’re going to a place like that.”

“What place?”

Athena clenched her teeth. “I’m talking about the Romantic Floor.”

“Oh, that’s my property. It’s very normal to visit your own property,” Ye Lang said very causally.

“...” Athena fell silent, not expecting this answer at all. This brothel was a piece of property under his name?!

“You’re shameless! Why did you even start a brothel…” Athena blushed in embarrassment.

“I thought it was a profitable business so I bought it. I was living inside for a month so it was more convenient for me to buy the place.”

“You lived for a month inside?” Athena’s face darkened.

“Yeah! I was fixing Fatty’s looks so we lived there for a bit. “

“Fatty?” Athena didn’t understand.

“I don’t have time right now. I need to check which jerk took over MY property!” Ye Lang waved impatiently.

“??” Athena was even more puzzled. Did someone take over his property?

It was simple. Remember how the Romantic Floor was closed down by the empress? It was left alone for a while but recently someone re-opened the place in their own name out of convenience and lack of enforcement.

Ye Lang had heard about this soon after he arrived at the city when he overheard a conversation about someone wanting to visit the opening ceremony of the Romantic Floor. When he asked around, he realised his own business had been taken over by someone else.

And it seemed like everyone was familiar with the new owner of the place too, apparently the master of the Li Family, someone named Li Yan.
