Chapter 534: Seduction

Zheng Changle said bitterly. “My father beat me up.”

Yu Niaoniao was puzzled. “Why?”

“Why else? Isn’t it because of your poster?”

“I did as you said and pasted the publicity poster for Chery Garden’s opening at the entrance of our theater.”

“My father found out about this. He chased me for two streets about the feather duster.”

“Although my face was swollen from the beating, my butt was actually even more swollen. I don’t even dare to sit for the past two days. It hurts so much!”

As Zheng Changle spoke, he reached out and touched his butt. From his pained expression, it was obvious that he had been beaten up quite badly.

Yu Niaoniao wanted to laugh.

But she held back.

She said with a touched expression, “Thank you. If not for your help, our Qirui Garden wouldn’t have so many guests today. I’ll cover all your expenses here today.”

With that, she got someone to bring over a thick cushion and placed it on the chair so that Zheng Changle could sit.

Zheng Changle carefully sat down. Although his butt still hurt, it was still tolerable.

He stuck his head out of the window and looked downstairs. Seeing that the stage was covered tightly with a red curtain, he couldn’t help but ask. “Why did you cover the trick table? How would the audience watch the show?” Yu Niaoniao poured him a cup of tea. “Don’t be anxious. You’ll know later.” Just as she finished speaking, gongs and drums sounded from downstairs.

The new show was finally about to start!

Yu Niaoniao and Zheng Changle looked downstairs. The red curtain was slowly pulled open, revealing the carefully arranged stage.

The first scene featured Duke Lang being ordered to go to Liaodong County. Along the way, he saved a beautiful woman.

The beautiful woman tried to seduce Duke Lang with her beauty.

The woman on the stage tried her best to approach Duke Lang. She had charming eyes and an enchanting figure. Coupled with the lights and the design of the dance, the atmosphere had the effect of doubling the charm of her beauty!

The male audience below the stage could not take their eyes off her. They wished they could rush onto the stage to replace the unromantic Duke Lang and enjoy this rare luck with the beautiful woman for him.

The bait failed, and Duke Lang was unmoved.

Seeing that one plan did not work, the female assassin thought of another.

She secretly poisoned Duke Lang’s food in an attempt to poison him.

This plan naturally failed again.

Duke Lang tore off her disguise in public and forced her to expose her identity. Both sides drew their swords and fought on the stage.

At this moment, the female assassin was no longer flirtatious. Every move was filled with cold killing intent.

The male audience who had been drooling over her beauty earlier were terrified.

What did it mean to not judge a book by its cover? This was a living example.

They originally thought that she was a cute little white flower, but they did not expect it to be a man-eating plant that ate people without spitting out bones!

The fighting scenes were personally designed by Liu Qirui. Every action was very beautiful. Coupled with the hurried soundtrack, this scene was very intense. Whether it was upstairs or downstairs, the audience could not take their eyes off it. From time to time, they would erupt with excited cheers.

In the end, the female assassin’s death led to the subsequent plot. It turned out that there was a huge conspiracy behind her.

The first scene came to an end.

The actors left the stage to rest, and the red curtain fell again.

The audience below the stage was not satisfied and asked when the next scene would start.

Liu Qirui asked everyone to calm down. Fifteen minutes later, the second scene began.

During the break, the audience gathered in groups to discuss the plot just now. “Why do I feel that the Duke Lang in the show is the living King of Hell?”

“So you think so too? When the character first appeared, I felt that he was very similar to Duke Lang. Be it his clothes or his age and identity, they’re almost identical.”

“Could it be that this show was created with Duke Lang as the model?”

“I don’t think so. Duke Lang is a living King of Hell who kills without batting an eyelid. He’s completely different from the upright and brave Duke Lang in the show. I think it’s just a coincidence.”

“I remember that Duke Lang went to Liaodong County last year. Is there really such a coincidence in the world?”

“Don’t think too much. As long as the show is good, it’s fine. The rest has nothing to do with us.”

Zheng Changle, who was sitting in the private room on the second floor, naturally heard everyone’s discussion.

He could not help but turn to look at Yu Niaoniao.

“Are you really not afraid that something will happen?”

Yu Niaoniao asked, “What can happen?”

Zheng Changle said, “As long as it’s anyone, they can tell that the protagonist in the opera is Duke Lang. If Duke Lang finds out about this, he will definitely not let it go. Duke Lang is not a person to be trifled with. Have you thought about how to deal with the aftermath?”

Not only was Yu Niaoniao not afraid, but she also smiled.

“Don’t worry, I’ve already thought of what to do. It will definitely be fine.” Zheng Changle was curious. “Can you tell me what you’re going to do?”

Yu Niaoniao flipped her hair and blinked. “Guess.”

Zheng Changle trembled at her wink.

A thought appeared in his mind. He looked at her with wide eyes and asked in disbelief.

“You’re not trying to use a honey trap, are you?”

Yu Niaoniao nodded seriously. “A honey trap? Yes, that’s a good idea. I’ll consider it.”

Zheng Changle believed her and was afraid that she would really seduce Duke Lang, so he hurriedly advised.

“Prince Lang is famous for not being close to beauties. It’s not that no one has given him beauties in the past, but he hasn’t touched any of them. On the other hand, those who wanted to curry favor with him didn’t end up well. Don’t court death!”

From the looks of it, Yu Niaoniao in front of him was a young girl who was about to go astray. He had to pull her back from this path of no return.

After all, he was still waiting to see Master Wang’s new work!

If she died, wouldn’t the Record of the Phoenix Cry Nation be a lost cause?

No! Zheng Changle could not accept that rotten ending!

Yu Niaoniao was amused by Zheng Changle’s anxious expression.

She burst out laughing.

“Alright, I won’t tease you anymore. I have connections in the Justice

Department. I’ll talk to some of them later. It’ll be fine.”

Zheng Changle was relieved. “That’s good. If you lack money, you can tell me. I’ll lend it to you, but don’t do anything stupid. A person like Duke Lang is not someone we can afford to provoke.”

As soon as she heard the word money, Yu Niaoniao’s eyes lit up. “How much can you lend me?”

Zheng Changle touched his pouch and poured out all the silver inside.

“That’s all I have. Take it all if you want.”

Yu Niaoniao stretched out her fair fingers and fiddled with the silver. “Is this all you have? I remember that you were quite rich before. You gave me banknotes worth more than a thousand taels.”

Zheng Changle said in embarrassment.

“My father knew that I had secretly helped your Qirui Garden do publicity. Not only did he beat me up, but he also took away all the banknotes on me. I’m only left with this little silver.”

He was already so pitiful. Yu Niaoniao was really embarrassed to take advantage of him again.

She put the silver back into the pouch and stuffed it into his chubby hand.

“I appreciate your kindness. You should take this money back. If you’re hungry, buy something to eat. Don’t lose weight from hunger..”
