61 Simple Pigheaded Official (1/2)

Madam Lu sat down directly across from Wang Bo, yet she did not utter a single sound or word. Remaining quite as she tried to work her aged charms on him.

But that was of little use, as her best years had passed long ago, and what was left of it was nothing more than a middle-aged woman trying to seduce a man who did not have any romantic interest towards her. Added on to the fact that Wang Bo frequently visited the Hundred Flower Hall to have the tender grass, madam Lu practically had zero chances.

Wang Bo could not do much but hope that this meeting would be as short as possible. Looking upon that face that had been applied with too much makeup, he felt nothing but disgusted towards this woman. If the Hundred Flower Hall wasn't the only brothel in the border town, or he did not have any business with her, he would not wish to lay his eyes on her for even a second.

”What have you called me for?” Wang Bo asked.

”Aw, do I need a reason to ask you to meet me? Can't we just meet each other for no reason at all?” She asked, leaning in closer to him until he accidentally inhaled a breath full of her powdered perfume.

”Ke Ke…” Wang Bo couldn't help but give a few coughs, as his eyes became watery, as though his body had rejected the strange smelling powder, and his body was doing everything possible to get rid of any traces of it from his body.

Seeing him in such discomfort, madam Lu leaned in closer with a malicious smile. Patting his back, she asked with the worry of a frightened young maiden, ”What's wrong, Wang Daren, don't frighten me!”

She continued to pat his back until she was abruptly pushed away by him. ”Don't touch me!” He yelled.

Wang Bo had gone to the farthest corner that gave him the greatest distance possible from madam Lu. Oh, how great it felt to be breathing clear, uncorrupted air again.

Madam Lu stopped and allowed to take a few breaths, she truly feared he would kick the bucket if she angered him once again, where was she to find another official who will listen to her orders.

How was she to face the people that had given her this task?

Thinking about this, she allowed Wang Bo to catch a few breaths before he sat back down again.

”What do you want me to do?”

”Simple.” Madam Lu said as she handed him a small slip of paper.

[So she had already prepared this already.] Wang Bo thought to himself as he glanced over the letter with his utmost care.
