There was no way Chu Yue would not know about it. She smiled and looked at the rich good-for-nothing man and said, “It’s just a gambling house.”

The young man who had carved the Kun-peng did not know what sort of status he had in the woman’s heart. He nodded and said, “I am indeed talking about a gambling house, but you can’t go there.”

She was a woman. She could not go to places with such foul atmospheres.

“Are you looking down on women now?” Chu Yue felt displeased and cast him a glance.

The young man who had carved the Kun-peng shook his head and said, “I’m not looking down on women, but there are differences between men and women.”

“But I have never seen how a gambling house looks like,” Chu Yue said with interest.

“It’s not suitable for women to go to such places,” said the young man who had carved the Kun-peng as he looked at her. There was no way he would not know what she had meant.

“Do you still have any clothes for men? Lend me a set. The commoner clothes you wore earlier will do,” Chu Yue said.

The young man who had carved the Kun-peng felt that the woman was very courageous and interesting. She was clearly a widow, but she did not seem to be sad or upset. But even more importantly, she was especially bold.

What sort of place was a gambling house? It was a place where men of all sorts gathered, which meant that good and bad men were mixed together. Some of them were taken advantage of after going inside, yet she actually dared to go to such a place.

“Are you really going?” the young man who had carved the Kun-peng asked while smiling.

If she really wanted to go and take a look, he would bring her inside. If he led her around, no one would dare to do anything to her.

“Yes.” Chu Yue nodded.

She was just thinking about how she could get some money when a rich good-for-nothing man just handed her a method on a silver platter. There was no way she would miss such a chance.

“Aren’t you afraid that I will sell you to someone?” The young man who had carved the Kun-peng smiled. She was really interesting.

“If you really want to sell me, please find someone who is good so that I can live without having to worry about my needs,” Chu Yue said with a wave of her hand.

The young man who had carved the Kun-peng laughed happily and said, “What’s your name?”

“You can just call me Moon.” Chu Yue would naturally not be so stupid as to say her real name, so she gave a random one.

The young man who had carved the Kun-peng was aware that she would not want to say her real name, so he said, “Then, are you going to keep calling me Young Man Who Carved the Kun-peng?”

Chu Yue nodded and said, “Hurry up and get the clothes. It’s late already.”

“Don’t worry, they’re open through the night. They just opened for business right now.”

Then, the young man brought her a clean set of clothes made of hemp cloth.

Chu Yue brought them into her room to change. The young man who had carved the Kun-peng did not change. He would let the woman follow him and pretend to be his servant.

Soon, Chu Yue came out in her new clothes. Not only had she changed her robes, she had also bound her chest and put on makeup so that she would have yellowish skin. She made herself look malnourished, and she even put a lot of pockmarks on her face.

When the young man saw her, he was a little stunned. He… had nearly been unable to recognize her.

When Chu Yue saw that he did not change, she bowed and said, “Master, let’s go.”

The young man who had carved the Kun-peng smiled. She had the same idea as him, so he smiled and said, “Let’s go.”

Chu Yue followed him. She had to admit that it was good to have money. The young man had his own carriage, and if he wanted to go somewhere, he could just go with it.

“How did you manage to disguise yourself with makeup? Is this the legendary disguise technique?” Once they got into the carriage, the young man who had carved the Kun-peng looked at Chu Yue.

With her new appearance, she really looked like a servant instead of a woman.

“This isn’t a disguise technique, just makeup skills. But both the disguise technique and makeup skills achieve the same effect through different techniques. They can both turn something ordinary into something amazing.”
