  Great discussion, comments are welcome.

  －－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

  The business of the Qin Institute was still booming at this time, and there was no way out. For these upper-class nobles or those ruthless martial artists, it seemed that there were no other pursuits besides indulging in a life of luxury and extravagance.

  Yang Tian asked, now listening to the rain tower, is absolutely free to come and go, no one dares or will block him, so he came unimpeded all the way to Qin Yuan Zhuju, where Fengxiu Dajia lives.

  The maid saw Yang Tianwen coming from afar and cleverly went ahead to inform the young lady.

  Before long, the door opened and a voice said: "Young Master Yang, the young lady invites you in."

  Yang Tian nodded and replied: "Thank you."

  Fengxiu was dressed in a snow-white long gown, and saw Yang Tianwen walk out from behind the screen in the middle of the living room. She greeted him: "Mr. Yang, please sit down."

  "Fengxiu girl, thank you." Yang Tianwen sat down.

  "Master Yang only enters the Three Treasures Hall for important matters. What is it that you want to say?" Feng Xiu asked directly, sitting across from Yang Tianwen.

  "I'm here to say goodbye." Yang Tianwen also nodded expressionlessly.

  "Ah? You're leaving?" Fengxiu didn't expect that Yang Tianwen was actually there to bid farewell, and she exclaimed in surprise.

  "Yes, I'll follow Yu Qinghong back." Yang Tianwen said without hiding anything.

  "Oh." Fengxiu replied somewhat absent-mindedly.

  For a moment, the small living room of the bamboo house fell into silence. Yang Tianwen didn't speak and didn't know what to say either. As for their relationship, it wasn't very deep, so he really didn't know what to say. Feng Xiu lowered his head, not knowing whether he was looking at the piano on the table or thinking about something.

  After a long while, Yang Tian broke the awkward atmosphere by saying: "If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave." He stood up and walked towards the screen door.

  "Wait." Feng Xiu suddenly spoke up, as if he had just woken up with a start.

  Yang Tian stopped in his tracks and turned around to ask: "Is there anything else?"

  Fengxiu lowered her head, biting her lip in hesitation, and after thinking for a long time, she finally spoke softly: "Can you take me away?"

  "What?" Yang Tian asked, not having heard clearly, or rather thinking he had misheard, and asked again for confirmation.

  Fengxiu seemed to have borrowed endless courage from somewhere, loudly repeating: "I want you to take me away from here, away from Tingyu Building, away from Wancheng, far away from this dirty and terrible place." After finishing, she even threw herself into Yang Tianwen's arms without caring about anything.

  Yang Tianwen was stunned for a moment, what's going on?

  Yang Tianwen has been self-sufficient for over 20 years, with an extremely high IQ and a broad knowledge of ancient and modern times. However, at the end of the day, he is just a thoroughbred otaku with an emotional intelligence that is frighteningly low, unable to cope with the current situation. Nevertheless, Yang Tianwen is different from ordinary otakus, his high IQ makes him more arrogant than anyone else in his bones, and after obtaining "The Self-Cultivation Great Way", he has gained unlimited release, doing things more and more according to his whims.

  It has to be said that being held by a woman feels great, it's a wonderful feeling that I've never experienced in decades, especially when the person holding you is an absolute beauty with a stunning figure.

  Yang Tianwen reacted and patted Fengxiu's back, saying: "Why? Why do you want to leave here?"

  "It's because of my appearance, I don't want to end up as a plaything for those dirty men outside. I was sold into the brothel at ten years old, and by fourteen, my skills on the zither were accomplished enough that I could redeem myself with my own abilities. From then on, I've used a veil to cover up my appearance, but I haven't escaped the restraints of fate. I know that one day, I'll still be unable to escape the fate of being a brothel girl. I hate it here, I'm tired of it, I want to leave forever." Fengxiu said with some agitation, and after a long while, she calmed down and asked: "Can you take me away?" She lifted her head, and a pair of beautiful eyes sparkled with crystal-like tears.

  Yang Tian asked, couldn't help but admit that Feng Xiu had an astonishing charm at this moment, and almost lost himself. Finally, he couldn't bear it and nodded: "As a friend, I'm willing to help you, but can I take you with me like this?" The money tree of Tingyu Building, even if I can take you, will others let go?

  "Of course, absolutely. Now that the Jianghu is in turmoil and three shocking blood cases have broken out one after another, it's a great opportunity for me to leave this place. Moreover, I don't have a contract binding me here, you can take me away at any time, no one will be foolish enough to stop us now." Fengxiu explained with eyes full of surprise and delight.

  "If you are free, why didn't you leave earlier?" Yang Tian asked in puzzlement.

  "I'm just a weak and timid woman. If I go outside, I'm afraid the outcome will be even more miserable than staying here!" Fengxiu said with a bitter smile.

  Yang Tian asked, suddenly enlightened, ah, this is not the 21st century, women can also hold up half the sky, this is a world where men are superior to women, women, even if they are as beautiful as celestial maidens, will eventually become playthings of their superiors, it's just a matter of time. "Okay, tomorrow I'll take you with me when we leave." Yang Tian asked had no ulterior motives, he was simply helping a friend, it was just a small effort, why not do it?

  Fengxiu was overjoyed, "Really?" After getting Yang Tianwen's affirmative nod, she suddenly hugged his broad back tightly, with tears of joy sparkling in her eyes.

  Yang Tian asked if he wasn't Liu Xiaohui, being held so tightly by a beautiful woman, how could he not have any reaction?

  Feng Xiu was excited and then felt Yang Tianwen's change, and couldn't help but jump back in surprise, almost shouting out loud.

  Yang Tian asked, feeling embarrassed, left a sentence: "This, tomorrow noon, hall see, not seen not scattered, I still have things to do, first go." Then he ran away in a flurry.

  Fengxiu's face was flushed with a healthy glow, and her normally plain complexion seemed to have been perfectly made up, making her even more beautiful and captivating.

  Yang Tianwen quickly calmed down the flames of desire on the road, with a bitter smile on his face, muttering to himself: "I didn't expect that I would also have such a miserable time." This can't be blamed on me, after all, I'm also a normal man. A seductress, a real seductress!

  Fengxiu sat in her seat for a while after Yang Tianwen left, then got up and took out a box from the inner room: "Lü'er, come in."

  Ying'er walked in from outside the door and asked: "Is there anything I can help you with, miss?"
