Chapter 192 Leaving all that aside
Looking at the two men who were about to clash, Shan Tianxie couldn't help but stroke his chin.
I sighed inwardly, "This is going to be tough!"
His gaze then darted back and forth between Sai Diaochan and Guo Furong.
Although he had already made up his mind to stay at Tongfu Inn for a while,
While waiting for Officer Xing's news, I'll also see if I'll have the chance to see those legendary dishes!
However, looking at Sai Diaochan's expression now, he was in a dilemma for quite a while.
In his frustration, he thought with a hint of malice,
If only Sai Diaochan weren't so nice to him, he wouldn't be so conflicted.
Sometimes, he is not so decisive in dealing with people who do not affect his interests.
After all, he's a heretic, not a social outcast who would kill anyone he encounters.
He only reveals his cruel side when his personal safety is threatened.
Just like Tianbaozhai and the Wen family, they either don't do it at all, or they do it to the extreme!
His current goal is simple: to advance to the Grandmaster level and take over the responsibility from his elder brother.
He had always had a feeling that his older brother was hiding something from him.
Can a Grandmaster really keep those people in Bliss Valley in check?
What exactly does the "Heaven-Defying Array Eye" do?
And who lives in that place?!
He had no answers to any of these questions in his previous memory.
A thousand thoughts tangle in the mind; even a tiny thread can lead to endless speculation.
Meanwhile, Shan Tianxie fell into deep thought.
Instantly, the entire Yihonglou fell silent.
After all, the commotion just now wasn't small, it just happened too fast.
Now, the surrounding guests turned their attention in this direction, wanting to see what was going on.
With everyone piecing things together, the truth of the matter was restored.
In an instant, all the guests turned their gazes toward Shan Tianxie.
I want to see what kind of man he is that is so popular with women, especially since one of them is the proprietress of this brothel!
It should be noted that although Sai Diaochan had only been in Qixia Town for a short time and lived a secluded life,
However, she couldn't escape the notice of those who were interested in her, especially this wealthy and beautiful boss lady.
Many self-proclaimed successful businessmen in Qixia Town are extremely envious, all dreaming of gaining both wealth and women in one fell swoop.
Even those with ulterior motives felt ashamed of themselves upon first seeing Shan Tianxie.
But then I quickly cheered myself up: a man's worth lies in his inner qualities and abilities, not just his appearance!
All things considered, I'm not that much worse off.
He's just a little taller than them, has a little more hair, a little smaller belly, and knows a bit of martial arts!
But so what? Putting all that aside, it's just an ordinary thing!
........
However, Gu Santong and his two companions had very different thoughts.
Xia Xueyi: Young Master, you're quite popular with women, but looking at this, He Hongyao from the Five Poisons Sect is rather special...
Drizzle: What on earth are these two women doing?! Are they trying to take advantage of my Forty-Two Styles of Water-Splitting Sword Technique?
Gu Santong didn't think it was that complicated; he just felt that the scene in front of him could be summed up in two words!
Fun!
This was even more interesting than deception; the two women created a unique aura.
Even he, a grandmaster, felt a pang of fear.
Thinking about this, Gu Santong couldn't help but feel that his choice back then was absolutely right.
Having too many women is troublesome; none are as good as one's own pure heart.
Su Xin, wait for me... Our family of three will be reunited soon!
.........
In the blink of an eye, all the thoughts of the crowd were fleeting.
At that moment, Shan Tianxie, who had been pondering for a long time, finally made his move.
Shan Tianxie first looked at Sai Diaochan, bowed slightly, and then chuckled.
"Manager Sai, the ambiance of Yihong Pavilion is indeed quite nice, and the dishes are delicious and visually appealing. It's making me a little reluctant to leave..."
Upon hearing this, Sai Diaochan instantly felt that the outcome was already decided.
She glanced at Guo Furong with a slight upturn at the corners of her mouth and a hint of smugness in her eyes, seemingly unintentionally.
The meaning is self-evident. See, see, I wasn't wrong just now!
But before she could even fully savor her triumph...
But then Shan Tianxie turned to Guo Furong, his smile widening.
"However, I do have some old acquaintances at Tongfu Inn, so it wouldn't be appropriate not to say hello..."
Upon hearing this, Guo Furong immediately perked up, puffing out her chest.
She gave Sai Diaochan a look that was anything but polite in return.
It means, "See? You didn't win either, so what are you so smug about?"
Sai Diaochan was also a little stunned. She thought the situation was in her grasp, but it turned out to be like this in an unexpected turn of events.
Suddenly, as if she had thought of something, Sai Diaochan added somewhat unwillingly.
"Young Master Shan, why don't you consider that in a couple of days, Yangzhou's most famous courtesan, Hu Shiniang, will also be performing at Yihonglou? You could have her sing a couple of her signature songs for you then?"
In her opinion, there shouldn't be many men who don't like listening to music.
The courtesans of Yangzhou must have quite a strong allure for men!
Before Shan Tianxie could react, the guests nearby started discussing it.
"What?! Yihong Pavilion actually hired Hu Shiniang?!"
"Brother, forgive my ignorance, but who is this Hu Shiniang? Is she famous?"
A questioning voice came from the crowd.
Immediately, someone spoke up to explain: "Of course, this Hu Shiniang was incredibly popular in Yangzhou a while ago."
The famous Qu Hu Shiniang noodle soup is so popular, I never expected it to come to our Qixia Town. Manager Sai's skills are quite impressive.
"Yes, yes, I've heard it before. Let me sing you a couple of lines."
Some, eager to show off, would take a sip of tea and then immediately put on a performance.
"Oh dear... my lord, are you hungry? If you are, please tell my sister-in-law, and I'll make you some noodle soup... how about that?"
To be honest, no one thought the word was particularly good, but they noticed that the people around them were stroking their beards and nodding in agreement.
For a moment, some people doubted whether their aesthetic sense was lacking, so they all nodded in agreement.
When Shan Tianxie heard this singing style and the praise from the crowd, he almost couldn't help but burst out laughing.
I can't stay here any longer; if I do, I'll really get internal injuries from being cooped up.
Thinking of this, Shan Tianxie no longer hesitated, waved his hand at Sai Diaochan who was still trying to persuade him, and smiled faintly.
"Manager Sai, there's no need to persuade me. I'm not interested in this kind of thing."
"I'll stay at Tongfu Inn. Your two houses aren't far apart. I'll probably have to trouble Manager Sai quite a bit during my stay in Qixia Town."
