BXBX NOVEL Chapter 232 - 232 Look Clearly at Who I Am
The Lotus Restaurant was very famous in Jing City. It produced many concubines! The women here only sold their skills and not their bodies. Each of them had unique skills and was good at singing, dancing, and poetry. Most of the women in this Lotus Restaurant had found a good place to stay. Zhao Hongwei had three concubines who came from this restaurant. The women here were all free. If any Young Master from an aristocratic family wanted them to be concubines, they could leave on their own.
“Marquis, you’ve already stayed at our Lotus Restaurant for more than three months. Are you still not returning to the residence? Be careful, or Madam Xiao will get angry.” A woman in a blue chiffon dress poured Zhao Hongwei a glass of wine. She was the new dancer at the Lotus Restaurant and had six older brothers. She had been beaten, scolded, and ordered around since she was a child, and she was most afraid of violent people. This time, when she entered the Lotus Restaurant, she had taken a fancy to Zhao Hongwei at first sight. Zhao Hongwei was handsome, gentle, and generous. He was the perfect husband in her heart.
“My Madam has always been magnanimous. What’s there to be angry about me drinking and having tea here? As long as there is love, nothing in this world can separate us. I swear here that our Zhao family’s harem is the most harmonious. The concubines love me the most and I also love my concubines the most. We will never be separated in all our lives. If I break this oath, then let my mouth rot and I will never be able to lie again.” Zhao Hongwei’s solemn vow scared the woman in the blue chiffon dress so much that she hurriedly covered his mouth.
As the two of them continued to chat affectionately, they suddenly heard a cold voice behind them. “Marquis, you also said this to me back then.” Concubine Wan threw a flirtatious look at Zhao Hongwei and he spat out a mouthful of tea, directly spraying it all over Concubine Wan’s face.
“Pfft! How dare you, you ugly woman? What nonsense are you talking about!” Zhao Hongwei’s eyes widened and his brows furrowed, looking extremely disgusted. The woman in front of him was dressed in coarse clothes and had no makeup on her face. She was holding a large metal rod as thick as a shoulder pole with her hands on her waist. She looked like a demon. Beside her was an old woman with a cold expression. Where did this shrew come from?
“The quality of the women in the Lotus Restaurant is not good. The maidservants you used to hire were all beautiful and handsome. Why have they all become demons now? ” Zhao Hongwei commented disdainfully. With every sentence he said, the two ladies would chuckle softly. As they laughed, Zhao Hongwei felt his hair stand on end and had a bad feeling.
“Marquis, they showed the token of your residence.” The manservant of the Lotus Restaurant ran over and whispered into Zhao Hongwei’s ear.
Back then, Zhao Hongwei did not want to give the concubines the cold shoulder, so he gave each of them a token so that they could go out at any time. Zhao Hongwei’s smile froze as he looked at the black iron rods in the hands of the two ladies. He then looked at their eyes carefully… ‘Oh my God …’
“Mother-in-law, what are you doing here? How can you come to this place? Concubine Wan and Concubine Fang should both be in the residence, I will bring you back now…” Zhao Hongwei was about to her him up.
Concubine Wan was so angry that she laughed, “If I don’t peel off your skin today, my surname is not Wan!” She shouted angrily and waved the iron rod in her hand. With a clang, the round wooden table in front of her was split into two!
The Madam of the Lotus Restaurant was just about to bring people to teach Concubine Wan and Concubine Fang a lesson when she saw Concubines Wan’s brows furrow and she snapped. “Mother Chen, look at who I am!” Her face was cold, and the big stick in her hand was waving very smoothly. No matter how Mother Chen looked at her eyebrows, she found them familiar.
Mother Chen was stunned for a moment, and the guard of the Lotus Restaurant also stood in place.
Mother Chen looked carefully for a while before her eyes widened in fear. She sucked in a breath of cold air. ‘F*ck, it’s really Concubine Wan. What did she experience in the Zhao residence to become like this? You’re our Lotus restaurant’s number one, the natural pillar of our charm!’
In just a moment of daze, Zhao Hongwei had been beaten up by Concubine Wan until he was running around the restaurant, holding his head and crying out.
“Who asked you not to come home, who asked you to eat and drink outside, who asked you to be out every day?! If I don’t peel off a layer of your skin today, my surname won’t be Wan!” Concubine Wan was simply about to die from anger. The residence was in a mess and the only man she could rely on was actually unable to support her!
