Harper jumped out of the window and made way for Archer, who "promised" that he would not leave for the time being.
"Third Prince, please come in first."
This brothel is large in scale, and the business is very good especially at night. Even though it is already Yin time, she just saw a lot of servants on duty.
Archer is now floating outside her window. If he is seen by the servants on duty, he will cause trouble again.
Looking at the window that was open to him, and hearing the sounds coming from all around, Archer's expression changed several times, and finally he temporarily blocked his hearing.
As his sensitive hearing disappeared, Archer's expression finally improved. But when he looked at the "ignorant" look of the white mouse, he was furious and yelled: "Why did you come to a place like this?" ? "
If he hadn't found traces of the white mouse here, where would he have set foot in a place like this?
Harper: ...
She really didn't expect that Archer, who was so old as a god, would still care about this.
Ling pursed her lips slightly and said with a look of asking for credit, "I found a clue about the monster. Third Prince, come in quickly. It won't be good if someone sees you later."
Seeing Harper's slightly anxious look, Archer frowned, hesitated for a moment, and finally flew in from the window with a calm expression.
The room she lives in now is located on the top floor, and Zhao Jiayi is really good to her. The room he arranged for her is exquisite and elegant. The only drawback is that the space is not big.
Originally it was just fine for her to live alone, but after Archer came in, the originally suitable space suddenly became too small.
Harper was about to let Archer sit down when he saw Archer leaning against the window with his arms folded.
From her perspective, she could see most of his delicate features.
Harper came to the table and poured a cup of tea and handed it to him. Seeing that he refused, she was not disappointed at all. She put down the tea cup and got to the point, telling her what happened when she met the monster before and the reason why she came here.
Her voice was as gentle as water, and the longer she listened to it, the sweeter it became. Archer felt a little tired after not hearing it for so long.
When the little white mouse's voice stopped, he was surprised to realize that he had been confused for a moment.
Thinking of what she just said, Archer raised his eyebrows and was a little unhappy, "So, you told others that I am your brother?"
Harper: ...
Is this the point?
She talked so much that she was thirsty, but Archer noticed her casual words.
Harper picked up the tea she had poured for Archer and drank it all in one gulp, deliberately guiding him, "Third Prince, aren't you interested in that Elowen Yang?"
There are clues about monsters on her body. Isn't Archer here just to get rid of monsters?
"Not interested." Archer denied without hesitation. He raised his eyebrows, looked at the stunned Harper, and continued, "Rather than this, I am more interested in you telling others that I am your brother. "
Before he finished speaking, Archer's eyes became increasingly dangerous, and even the clear young voice became a bit cold and hard, "You won't forget what I said before, right?"
Under the candlelight, the boy's supposedly black pupils showed a hint of gold, cold and distant, making people shudder.
Fear swept over her again, Harper bit her lip, her voice weak.
"The third prince only said that he wouldn't let me call you 'brother.'" Harper remembered clearly. She spoke slowly with those golden eyes in her eyes, her tone a little aggrieved, "I didn't tell others that the third prince was my brother." "
She only said that she and her brother were separated, but she didn't say who it was.
It was obvious that Archer was right in his element.
But she didn't dare to say this in front of Archer.
"You do know how to say it."
With Archer's chuckle, the initially dangerous atmosphere quickly dissipated.
Harper breathed a sigh of relief and immediately changed the subject, "Third Prince, have you found any traces of monsters before?"
"Yes, but he ran away."
The moment Harper disappeared, Archer realized something was wrong, but the monster was really good at hiding its traces. If it weren't for the fact that he brought the white mouse with him, he might still not be able to detect his traces.
However, the monster did have a trick. When he approached, the monster left the white mouse and left first.
As the position of the white mouse changed, he lost track of the monster.
But fortunately, at the critical moment, Archer still relied on his strong intuition to find a sea of flowers outside the city.
Although monsters are good at hiding, in this sea of flowers, he can still determine the origin of monsters.
"What kind of monster is that?" Harper asked.
She had a good impression of the man in white. Apart from his good looks, Harper liked the sound of his piano very much.
Although the sound of the piano was very sad at that time, it cannot be denied that the skill of the player and the emotion he placed on the sound of the piano touched her heart.
"Flower Demon."
...
Even though his hearing was blocked, Archer still didn't like it here.
Looking at the white mouse who was leisurely and not embarrassed at all, Archer hesitated to speak, but in the end he only left one sentence.
"I'm going to continue tracking the monster."
"Then I..." Harper originally planned to go with him, but when he saw Archer's impatient look, he finally changed the subject and said, "...Then I'll wait here. Third Prince."
Archer didn't like her going with him.
Before, even if he was rejected, Harper would have followed shamelessly, but now...
Harper thought of Elowen Yang whom she met before, and the sea of flowers that Archer mentioned. If she could find the monster, Archer would definitely change his view of her.
But it was obviously not rational for her to go looking for monsters alone, but opportunities and dangers always coexisted, and she was willing to take a gamble.
Otherwise, they will really be left to fend for themselves in Xiankong Mountain.
The sun jumped above the horizon, and the gentle and warm sunlight shone through the windows on the high-rise rooms.
On the bed, the young woman was sleeping peacefully, breathing evenly. Her red lips were slightly raised, presumably because she was having a sweet dream.
Suddenly, the woman's long eyelashes fluttered slightly, and she opened her eyes in an instant.
Harper was woken up.
She thought about things too late yesterday, and only started to feel a little sleepy when the sky got slightly brighter. But not long after she closed her eyes, she heard rustling voices outside the door.
The center of the topic still revolves around yourself.
Harper stood up, put on her shoes, straightened her hair, and opened the door.
The entrance was made by two girls she didn't know, and Elowen Yang, who was "bought" by her yesterday.
Elowen Yang was still wearing the cyan dress, but now her dress looked very rough and slightly white. The other two girls were dressed very gorgeously, with delicate and colorful makeup on their faces, but you could still see the black and blue under the corners of their eyes.
"Miss Ling."
Although she had already seen Harper yesterday, Elowen Yang couldn't help but admire her beauty when she saw her again.
There is such a beautiful woman in the world, it feels like it is blasphemy to look at her even more.
"Miss Ling, Ling?!"
The other two women froze on the spot, originally thinking that Elowen Yang was exaggerating. After all, judging from her humble appearance, how beautiful was the beauty she was talking about?
It was only after seeing this that I realized that what she said was not exaggerated in the slightest. On the contrary, I felt that her description was too barren.
Remembering the bad things they said about her outside just now, the two women lowered their heads, feeling a little embarrassed.
Although Harper didn't care what they thought, she was in a good mood when she saw the two people's awkward looks.
"Do you have anything to do with me?" Harper looked at Elowen Yang with a gentle smile.
This person is the key to her search for monsters, and she values her very much.
Facing Harper's attack with a smile, Elowen Yang suddenly let go of the previous words of the two women. She turned slightly red and said to Harper, "I want to wait for the girl to wake up and ask you to eat."
She experienced too much yesterday, and of course she couldn't sleep at night.
She took advantage of dawn to prepare to find Harper.
Although the landlady let her go, the rooms arranged for her and Harper were very different. She walked around and asked, and finally found Harper's residence.
At the same time, other girls heard the news and were ready to meet this new "sister".
The two girls seemed good-looking at first glance, but after meeting a woman as stunningly beautiful as Miss Ling, she thought they were just vulgar.
They are the only ones who actually say bad things about Miss Ling?
Elowen Yang didn't like them, but because she didn't want to wake up the sleeping girl Ling, she kept arguing with them in a low voice.
but...
There are no dark circles under Miss Ling's eyes at all. She must have slept well, right?
Hearing the meal, Harper was really hungry.
She walked up to Elowen Yang, reached out and took her arm, and said to her, "Then let's go together."
"Ling, Ling..." Elowen Yang's face turned red, and the words she wanted to say seemed to be stuck in her throat, unable to say anything.
Miss Ling actually pulled her, how could she be pulled by such a fairy-like girl.
She smells so good, it makes her head feel dizzy and her hands are so soft. Is this the Rou Yi mentioned in the book?
It was a completely different hand from hers.
The two girls who were ignored: ...
Oops, they are used to seeing stinky men, and they really want to hold hands when they see such a sweet-smelling and soft girl!
...
On the way to dinner with Elowen Yang, Harper also roughly inquired about her family situation.
Elowen Yang is eighteen years old this year. Her parents are ordinary farmers. Before she was three years old, although her parents were not very kind to her, they did not beat or scold her frequently.
Everything changed when she had a younger brother.
Her parents could no longer see her. The worst case was that they even left her at home for half a month when she was only six years old. Her life during that half month was like a nightmare.
If it weren't for the sympathy of her neighbors, she might have starved to death.
Later, her parents showed no mercy to her. She had done all the work in the family since she was a child. From chopping wood and carrying water to doing laundry and cooking, everything fell on her alone.
But even so, her parents were still dissatisfied with her, and beating and scolding were commonplace.
Once she couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to escape, but she was discovered by her younger brother who woke up at night, and was eventually beaten by her father until she became ill for more than a month.
If she hadn't been lucky, she would have died that time.
After that, Elowen Yang looked much more solid, but only she knew that her desire to escape became more and more determined.
But before she could escape, her family members were sold.
When she found out that she was being sold, Elowen Yang's heart finally died. She had waited for this step after all, and she accepted it calmly, as if she was repaying their kindness for giving birth to her.
Maybe it would be better to be a slave in other people's homes than here.
But when Zhao Jiayi brought people to her home, Elowen Yang found that she still looked down upon her family. They were simply devils.
"Your parents really love your brother. In order to get you more money and send your brother to a good private school, they sold you to me."
What was Zhao Jiayi's tone at that time?
There was ridicule and disdain, but mostly numbness, as if he was used to these things.
Elowen Yang didn't resent her, she just hated her parents.
Just because she is a woman, does she have to suffer such unfair treatment? Is she their child too?
Although he had already guessed Elowen Yang's experience, when he actually heard it, Harper's heart still felt.
She reached out and touched her head with a gentle tone, "You have nothing to do with them now. If you have any resentment, I can help you teach them a lesson."
At most it's a lesson.
Although she is a monster now, she has lived in a legal society for twenty years. Even if she has this strength, she would not dare to actually kill someone.
What's more...
She also has a fairy brother now.
If Archer knew that she had killed someone, no matter how good she behaved, she would not get his approval, and she might even clean up the family or something.
After listening to Harper's gentle comfort, Elowen Yang suddenly stopped, squatted down and cried loudly.
No one has been so gentle to her since she was born.
Is the spirit girl she is facing a fairy sent by God to rescue her? At this moment, even if she were asked to die for Miss Ling, she would not have the slightest complaint.
After all, it was she who gave him new life.
Seeing her squatting on the ground, Harper gently bent down and touched her back. His tone was so gentle that it made people indulge, "Stop crying, don't shed tears for people who don't deserve it. I will take care of you in the future."
As long as Elowen Yang can help her find the monster, she doesn't mind sending her to a place close to Xiankong Mountain to help her live the rest of her life happily.
When Elowen Yang heard this, her tears fell even more.
Harper searched around on his body, but there was no such thing as a handkerchief.
The skirt she was wearing was given to her by Archer, and she liked it very much and didn't want to use it to wipe her tears.
So, Harper raised Elowen Yang's face and gently brushed away the tears from the corners of her eyes with her fingertips, "Stop crying, I will be sad if you cry again."
Elowen Yang looked at the woman in front of her infatuatedly. She was so beautiful that her heart palpitated. She could not imagine that anyone would be willing to make such a beautiful woman shed tears.
She quickly wiped away her tears with her sleeves and stood up with Harper's help. Her voice was still crying after shedding tears, "I won't cry anymore. Miss Ling, don't be sad for me."
She doesn't deserve it.
"Okay." Harper touched her head, smiled slightly, and said, "You don't need to call me Miss Ling, just call me Awei."
Elowen Yang was so frightened that no matter how many times Harper said she didn't mind, she didn't want to speak.
Harper had no choice but to give up.
This brothel has a very elegant name, called Hongxiu Zhao.
The two happened to bump into Zhao Jiayi on the way to dinner, and Harper took the initiative to ask her to have dinner.
Zhao Jiayi originally planned to educate the girl who caused trouble yesterday, but when she saw Harper, she immediately put it behind her. She didn't feel it before, but now she is really hungry.
With the landlady here, Harper's breakfast is extremely rich, but the taste...
It's hard to comment.
After breakfast, Harper took Elowen Yang and left Hongxiuzhao.
Zhao Jiayi saw this and called out to Harper, but when Harper looked at her with those beguiling eyes, her words to stop her were swallowed.
It's okay, she still has the note written by Miss Ling.
If he were as tough as before, Miss Ling would definitely be sad. Just thinking of her sad scene made Zhao Jiayi feel guilty.
She took out a bag of money from her sleeves. She originally wanted to take out part of it, but when she saw Harper looking at her, her heart skipped a beat. She shoved it all in front of Elowen Yang and ordered: "Haosheng, take care of Miss Ling."
Elowen Yang: ...
Others in Red Sleeve Moves: ...
Is this still their boss lady who regards wealth as life?
