Man's lively and enthusiastic sound with the applause stroll in the Pavillions main hall. They were very much pleased and delighted after seeing the stunning performance.

​​

This pleasing scene gave Linxiao the vibe that most of the men who come here usually. Like they know Han Xuan'er individually, and they were close to her.

Linxiao smiles cheerfully, which reaches her ear as though she enjoys the visit.

After that Linxiao looked towards the stage, where a man was walking towards the Han Xuan er and he said something in her ear. On hearing that man, Xuan er nods her head with the alluring smile on her red captivating lips.

After this, that man gets off the stage and goes upstairs. Han Xuan'er also follows the man and goes upstairs behind that man.

"Liu Ying, you sit here. I will come back in a while," Linxiao informs Liu Ying, seeing Han Xuan'er going upstairs with the man, as she thinks he leads her to the room which she had reserved for herself.

As Linxiao gets up from her place and steps away from the table. "Xiao Tong, I will also come with you." Liu Ying stood from her place and held Linxiao's hand.

Liu Ying looks into Linxiao's eyes with worry. She was nervous about what would happen to Linxiao. If she would roam without care, then what would she do if something befell her.

"No, you can't come with me. Today I'm going to spend my night with the No 1 hostess in the pleasure pavilion," she said with a smile while removing Liu Ying's hand from her.

Hearing she was going to no 1 hostess oh pleasure pavilion, Liu Ying understood the hidden hint in Linxiao's words: she was close to the clue and she was heading towards that.

"Hmmm.., I will wait for you right here," Liu Ying smiled and sat back in her seat. Liu Ying thought she was taking unnecessary tension. As Liu Ying was worried about Linxiao, where she was thinking to go.

"Just do not sit here leisurely, go outside, to enjoy the beauty of the market," she says while laughing, keeping her palm on Liu Ying's face and caring for them with her finger.

Liu Ying blushed with the slight movement of Linxiao.

As this scene looks warm and caring to other's eyes.

In the outsider's eyes, it looks like she was playing with her girl when going to another one. But Liu Ying knows why Linxiao tells her to leave. It was because this place was full of men. She thinks if she was not around her then what she would do if something happened to Liu Ying.

So, taking this reason into consideration, Linxiao asked Liu Ying to wait for her outside of the pavilion.

After that Linxiao left and went upstairs towards the direction where that man had taken away Han Xuan er.

...….

"Xuan er today we caught a big fish," says a man, showing his teeth while smiling ear to ear. Who accompanied her and took her towards a room.

"Hmm… Then, how much did he offer for me?" asked Xuan'er with a smirk. Heading inside one of the Pavillion chambers.

"He offers 10 times higher," the man exclaimed in excitement.

"Huh...., 10 times! ..," hearing the price, her steep halt in the middle which was going in the chamber.

Man nodded.

"Not bad at all...It's look like, I underestimate myself, and did not think someone could pay that much glorious price for me," she says with the silly smile formed in her lips. As she was happy that someone had paid an enormous price.

Why would someone not offer this price? After all, she is the number 1 hostess in the pleasure pavilion.

"Hmm…" the man hum and nods.

They reach the chamber. Han Xuan er sat on a bench beside the table which was decorated with camellia flowers. Whose fragrance had filled the chamber with the scent of camellia.

"Just wait here, I'll bring him here, in a minute" saying this, the man walked away from the chamber and closed the door behind his way.

Han Xuan er smiled and prepared the tea to welcome and entertain the upcoming guest. As she was waiting for a man to come to her chamber.

Meanwhile,

Linxiao also comes upstairs.

"Where has he taken Han Xuan er?" heading to the corridor Linxiao muttered and thought, "Where did he take her away?''

Just as Linxiao thought, she lost Han Xuan er. Her eyes fall on a man whom she has seen before and who has taken Han Xuan er with him. He was heading towards the other corridor but Han Xuan er was not with him.

However, this time he was with the two-man with him.

"Let's follow him. Where is he going?" she says to herself. So she could go to him and ask him where Han Xuan er is? And she follows and goes behind him and the other two-man.

As she was heading closer to them. She felt a familiarity coming from those two men. Like she had seen them before, but as their back was towards her. She could not remember who they are, but the clothes they had worn look like she's seen them anywhere before but not able to remember. Exactly where she had seen them.

One man wore white, and the other wore a blue commoner dress.

Emphasizing in her brain. She thought about where she saw them. Through brainstorming her head to recognize who two-man is. Then suddenly the man turned towards another side of the corridor as now they were facing a door of one chamber.

While from Linxiao's view, she could see their side profile. Seeing them, Linxiao's steps halt on her way and she stares at both of the men with her wide eyes.

Now, clearly, she remembered where she had seen them. As they were the same people from before, with whom she had bumped into the market and who spoiled her sweet beans.
