Chapter 37: If you don’t show it to me, I’ll give you a bad review today

Xiao Han rummaged in his arms and took out a packet of medicine. He handed it to Sang Li, “Sister Li, be careful with this. If it touches you, it will cause a rash and be a little itchy. It takes seven days to get better.”

“I know.” Sang Li took the medicine packet and turned to Gu Zhi, “Come with me.”

Gu Zhi followed Sang Li to a secluded corner.

“This is for you. If you apply it on your body or face, it will cause a rash. Then they probably won't let you serve customers for a while. But it will be a little uncomfortable and take seven days to heal. It's up to you whether to use it.” Sang Li said.

When Gu Zhi took the medicine from Sang Li's hand, he inadvertently touched her fingers.

His eyes flickered and he said softly, “Thank you, sister. You are so kind.”

Seeing his pitiful eyes, Sang Li's heart softened a little. “If I had money, I wouldn't mind helping you. But I don't have that much money now.”

“I know, sister. You have no reason to help me either.” Gu Zhi looked at Sang Li, his eyes lifeless. “Sister, if there's nothing else, I'll go back to my room first.”

Sang Li hesitated. “Alright.”

Watching Gu Zhi leave, Sang Li somehow felt a little uncomfortable.

There were so many pitiful people in this world. Could she help every single one she encountered?

No, she couldn't feel guilty about it.

Thinking this, Sang Li walked towards Xiao Han.

At this time, after the first round of speeches, Xiao Han was voted out by everyone.

Xiao Han was about to lose it. She stood up and pointed at them, “Do you guys have no brains?”

“Xiao Han, you can say your last words now.” Xia Miaomiao said.

Xiao Han took a deep breath. “I am the fortune teller. What were you thinking voting me out? I investigated No. 3 last night and he is a werewolf. So witch, please just poison him to death!”

No. 3 looked at Xiao Han innocently, appearing extremely pitiful. “Sister, I'm a good person~”

“...” Xiao Han really wanted to slam her head on the table. These people were such good actors!

Seeing them, Sang Li couldn’t help but curl her lips into a smile.

She went upstairs again, intending to check on Su Mo’s situation.

Inside the private room, Su Mo was almost blackout drunk!

She was still forcing Qing Feng to dance with her.

Seeing her like this, Qing Feng rubbed his eyebrows helplessly.

“Qing Feng... Do you think I have a good figure?!” Su Mo grabbed his shirt front and asked tipsily.

Qing Feng just nodded, his ears turning a little red.

“Then you tell me... why doesn't Wu Ying like me?!”

“...”

“Su Mo can have as many handsome guys as she wants! I took a liking to him, but he doesn't even look at me? Hmph! If he doesn't want me, this young lady doesn't care for him either!”

Su Mo swayed and moved closer to him, suddenly looking into his eyes. She pouted, “Why do I feel... your eyes look a little familiar...”

Qing Feng immediately averted his gaze.

“Let me... see what you really look like!” Su Mo said as she tried to remove Qing Feng's veil.

Qing Feng tilted his head to avoid her and grabbed her wrist.

“If you don't let me see... I'll give you a bad review today!” Su Mo yelled.

Qing Feng grabbed her wrist, pulled her into his arms, held her by the waist, and lifted her up in one swift motion.

Then he walked to the window, leapt out in one jump.

...

When Sang Li came upstairs, she happened to see the man in green who had greeted them earlier rushing up with another man in white.

Seeing Sang Li, the man in green hurriedly came up to her and said, “Miss, I'm really sorry. This is the real Qing Feng. The one who went in earlier was an imposter...”

“What?!” Sang Li was shocked and immediately rushed to open the door of the private room.

The room was filled with the smell of alcohol, but there was no one inside.

“Sister Mo!” Sang Li looked around the room anxiously but didn't see anyone.

She turned to the man in green. “What exactly happened?!”

“Miss, after I finished playing music downstairs and went back to change, I was knocked out by someone before I knew it...” Qing Feng said.

“When I went to call for Qing Feng, he came out wearing Qing Feng's clothes and veil. I...didn't notice at the time and thought he was Qing Feng.” The man in green said guiltily.

Sang Li frowned. She looked around the room again and finally to the opened window.

She walked to the window and looked out. Although it was quite high for ordinary people, if the person knew lightness techniques, they could easily jump down.

She immediately went out to find Xiao Han and the others.

“Xiao Han, stop playing. Sister Mo is missing!”

“What?!” Xiao Han and Xia Miaomiao immediately stood up. “What happened?”

“That Qing Feng earlier was fake!” Sang Li said solemnly.

The three hastily paid and rushed out of Fu Hua Building.

Those male courtesans called out reluctantly, “Sisters, come play often~”

Once out of Fu Hua Building, Sang Li immediately turned to the street below the window.

“He must have taken Sister Mo out through the window!” Sang Li said.

“Who could it be? Why pretend to be Qing Feng?” Xia Miaomiao said.

“So from the time we entered Fu Hua Building, this person had been secretly watching us.” Sang Li said.

“Ah, I suddenly remember recently around Wenge Pavilion, I always felt someone sneaking about. But I never actually saw anyone, so I didn't pay much attention.” Xiao Han suddenly said, “Anyway whenever I went out to buy herbs these days, I always felt like someone was outside.”

“Let's go back to Wenge Pavilion first!”

The three hurried back to Wenge Pavilion.

When they arrived, the entire courtyard was perfectly quiet. Sang Li took out a crossbow arrow from her waist warily. Xiao Han and Xia Miaomiao also took out medicinal powder.

The three quietly pushed open the door. Inside was pitch black without a sound.

Xia Miaomiao took out her phone and turned on the flashlight, waving it around.

“No one’s here.” They all let out a breath of relief and went inside.

The three looked around. Xia Miaomiao's phone light suddenly shone on the bed, scaring her into screaming!

“Ah, Sister Li, there’s someone on the bed!”

Sang Li looked over and carefully walked over with the crossbow.

“Sister Mo?” Seeing Su Mo lying on the bed fast asleep, Sang Li couldn't help being surprised.

“What? It’s Sister Mo?” Xiao Han and Xia Miaomiao came over.

“Why is Sister Mo lying on the bed?!” Xiao Han said in surprise.

“Check her and see if she’s injured.” Sang Li hurriedly said.

Xiao Han lifted the quilt and examined Su Mo all over. “No injuries. She probably just got drunk and fell asleep.”

“This is too strange!” Xia Miaomiao said.

Sang Li hesitated, then suddenly said, “Could it be...Wu Ying?”

The three looked at each other.

“No, why would he do this? Doesn't he dislike Sister Mo?” Xiao Han asked.

“Sister Li, when you say that, I also feel it must be Wu Ying.” Xia Miaomiao said, “I think he must still like Sister Mo a little. Otherwise why did he save her last time?”

Sang Li hesitated, but changed the subject. “If Wu Ying likes Sister Mo, do you think he would give us the treasure map?”

“Hard to say for sure.”

Sang Li looked at Su Mo on the bed. “Let her rest first.”

The three left the room and went to another room to discuss opening the shop.

Xia Miaomiao worked efficiently, staying up all night in the study writing proposals.

At dawn the next day, the sun slowly rose.

The entire courtyard was bathed in sunlight.

Su Mo tossed and turned in bed, feeling dizzy and disoriented.

She groggily sat up, rubbing her somewhat swollen head.

“Ah, my head hurts so much...” Looking left and right, Su Mo found herself in Wenge Pavilion.

She was stunned for a moment, trying to recall her memories.

Last night they went to Fu Hua Building, then she requested their top courtesan Qing Feng.

She drank quite a lot, and was dancing with Qing Feng. She didn't remember what happened after that. Had Sister Li and the others carried her back?

Su Mo rubbed her temples, got out of bed and found she was still wearing yesterday’s clothes. She frowned and immediately went to bathe.

After bathing and changing, she came out and saw Xiao Han jogging in the courtyard.

“Xiao Han, where are Sister Li and the others?” Su Mo asked.

“They were in the study, looking at plans to open the shop!” Xiao Han ran to her side, gasping for breath as she said: “Su Mo, do you know who sent you back yesterday?”

Su Mo looked at her in confusion, “Wasn’t it you guys?”

“Of course not, we found you suddenly missing at the Fu Hua Building, and then when we returned to Wenge Pavilion we discovered you lying in bed!”

“......”
