Very quickly, Miao Yiniang personally carried a huge tray over and placed a few exquisite side dishes on the table. Then, she took out a pot of warm wine and placed it between the two of them. "Please enjoy, sirs. I still have matters to attend to …"
"Hold on," Xu Erfu said quickly.
"Hmm?" Miao Yiniang glanced coldly at Xu Erfu and said lightly, "Trying to tease me again?"
Xu Erfu shrunk his neck and looked at the three-hundred-year-old porcelain that he had placed on the windowsill. His lips twitched as he said, "Chu Xiaohei has something to tell you."
"Oh?" Miao Yiniang glanced at Chu Mo. "You've finally thought it through? Agreed to take me in as your servant? "
"…" Chu Mo's forehead was full of black lines. He covered his face with his hands and said exasperatedly, "What are you thinking about?"
Xu Erfu had a jealous expression on his face. "I say … Sister Miao, do you have to be like this? I was one of the people who saved you back then! I was one of them! But why are you only thinking about repaying Chu Xiaohei all this time? What kind of logic is this? There's no justice in this world! "
Miao Yiniang glanced at Xu Erfu and then sat down beside Chu Mo. A fragrant breeze wafted over. Chu Mo inched towards the window without batting an eyelid.
Miao Yiniang looked hurt. "See, do you know why now?"
"Isn't that cheap …" Xu Erfu couldn't help but roll his eyes. "So you're so grateful because he's been avoiding you? Alright then, I'll keep my distance from you tomorrow as well! "
"I couldn't ask for more. Thank you very much!" Miao Yiniang said.
"…" Xu Erfu was seething with anger. He picked up the wine pot and poured himself a cup. He downed it in one gulp and said, "I can tell now. You just don't like me. Sigh, she didn't want a dashing and handsome guy like me and just had to find someone as ugly as Chu Xiaohei. How sad! "
Miao Yiniang giggled and ignored him. She turned her head to Chu Mo and her pair of beautiful eyes fell on Chu Mo's face. "Is this the matter?"
Chu Mo shook his head, "Sister, you are the descendant of a noble sect, why do you have to humiliate yourself like this? Back then, I said that saving you … was really a coincidence, and I never expected you to repay me. All these years, you've already helped us enough! Without you, the Gluttonous House would not be where it is today. Without you, I would not have been able to escape from Yan Huang City. After all, at that time, Xu Erfu was not around, nor was my grandfather. There was only you. "
"So, strictly speaking, I saved you once, and you saved me once. Between us, we are already even. Even if Sister says you want to leave now, Erfu and I have nothing to say. "
Miao Yiniang looked at Chu Mo and smiled sweetly. "Sister likes your serious face."
Pu!
Xu Erfu, who had just eaten a mouthful of food, almost spat it out. He glared angrily at Miao Yiniang. "I can tell now. The two of you are a pair of adulterous husband and wife!" As he spoke, he turned his gaze to Chu Mo. "Chu Xiaohei, Master Xu has misjudged you. Some pitiful worm that hasn't even touched a flower bud? You're clearly a womanizer! What a beautiful way to play hard to get. "
Chu Mo looked mildly at Xu Erfu. "Back to business."
"Uh …" Xu Erfu was defeated by Chu Mo's words. He hung his head dejectedly and said with a sad face, "Forget it. Sigh, one less wife. So be it. Falling flowers yearn for love, but heartless water flows on. What else can I say?"
Miao Yiniang looked at Chu Mo seriously. "If there's anything you need me to do, just say it. Anyway, even if you don't admit that I'm your maidservant, in my heart, you're still my young master!"
"What about me?" Xu Erfu looked at Miao Yiniang expectantly.
"You're my young master's brother and my boss." Miao Yiniang smiled at Xu Erfu.
"Give me a bucket, I want to vomit blood!" Xu Erfu rolled his eyes and mumbled.
Chu Mo couldn't be bothered with this idiot. He looked at Miao Yiniang and said, "I want to establish my own force!"
"Hmm?" Miao Yiniang's eyes flashed as she looked at Chu Mo.
Chu Mo continued, "When this force is developed, I hope it can do many things for me! But for now, I only need it to provide me with all kinds of information. "
Miao Yiniang looked at Chu Mo in surprise. "Why did you suddenly think it through? Aren't you afraid of causing trouble for your grandfather? Aiya aiya, my young master, it's really not easy. You've thought it through, then about taking me in as your maidservant … "
"Can we not talk about that?" Chu Mo said helplessly.
"Alright, you're the young master. Whatever you say!" Miao Yiniang seemed to be very happy. She smiled. "Say it, what do you want me to do?"
"I want … you to be in charge of this." Chu Mo said, "After all, with my and Erfu's status … it's not suitable for us to show our faces and do this in public."
Miao Yiniang thought about it and nodded. "Alright, that's not a problem. But I have a question."
Chu Mo looked at Miao Yiniang pitifully. "As long as it's not about being my maidservant …"
Miao Yiniang chuckled and rolled her eyes at Chu Mo. She said, "Of course it's not about that! My question is, to what extent do you want this force to develop? Tell me directly, what is your ambition? To overthrow the royal authority? Or to become the Sovereign of the Eventide? "
"Overthrow the royal authority? No, I haven't thought about that. But to establish a powerful force and become the Sovereign of the Eventide … I can do that! "Chu Mo's voice was calm as he said word by word. An indescribable aura was emitted from his body.
Even Xu Erfu, who had not been acting properly all this while, could not help but be stunned. He muttered, "This fellow … has really changed!"
Miao Yiniang's beautiful eyes were filled with splendor. She smiled and said, "Looks like you must have experienced a lot in this half a year! Your mentality has changed so much. But, I like it! "
Chu Mo looked calm on the surface, but he was smiling bitterly in his heart. Sister, how could you know what I have experienced in this half a year?
Xiaoyu disappeared from this world because of me. Although the person who caused her to leave is dead, the root cause is Da Qi!
What is Da Qi? Da Qi is one of the overlords of the Azure Dragon continent!
Its overall strength is not inferior to a powerful empire of Da Xia!
Although he has never had a direct confrontation with Da Qi, the enmity between both parties … is a death feud!
Chu Mo did not think that his identity could be hidden forever. One day, Da Qi will find out that the person who destroyed their twenty years of planning … a hundred years of planning is the grandson of a general of Da Xia.
When that time comes, will they let me go?
Chu Mo was never the kind of person who would sit and wait to be beaten. The blood and pride in his bones was something that ordinary people could not understand.
"I think this is feasible!" Miao Yiniang looked at Chu Mo, then looked at Xu Erfu, "With you two young masters holding the fort, I believe … it will not be difficult!"
"I will ask Uncle Du Bi to look for you for the specifics. He has a large number of elite soldiers who retired from the army. Those soldiers are loyal and their skills are extraordinary. They can be the foundation of our power in the early stages. "
Miao Yiniang nodded, "Very well!"
Xu Erfu suddenly said, "If that is the case, then I think that our Gluttonous House should start to expand on a large scale! Not only can it make money for us, it can also provide us with the best protection! "
"That's right, but … do we have enough money?" Chu Mo's heart ached when he thought of the primary stones he had.
"The money we have now is more than enough to open more than ten branches." Miao Yiniang smiled and said, "You two young masters are two hands-off shopkeepers. You threw this business to me without even asking. If I had the heart, I would have become one of the richest women in Da Xia by now!"
"Hehe, we are all family, why are we so distant?" Xu Erfu was the kind of person who would take advantage of others even if he had to die.
Miao Yiniang glared at Xu Erfu and said, "Shut your mouth! Otherwise, I don't mind throwing you out of the window. "
"Why are you so fierce? I didn't mean it that way …" Xu Erfu explained weakly.
Miao Yiniang picked up the wine pot and poured a cup for Chu Mo first, then for Xu Erfu, and finally for herself. She raised the wine cup and looked at the two of them. She said emotionally, "To be honest, although I am much older than you two young masters, my life was given to me by you! Therefore, your problems are also my, Miao Yiniang's, problems. Don't worry, I will do my best in this matter! "
As she spoke, Miao Yi Niang drained the cup of wine in her hand.
Chu Mo and Xu Erfu looked at each other and also finished the wine in their cups.
"Brother Xiaohei is right," Xu Erfu said, "In that case, the two of us just happened to meet at the right time. Since we met, there is no reason for us to ignore it. "
Chu Mo nodded.
Xu Erfu added, "Moreover, Sister is so beautiful!"
"...." Chu Mo and Miao Yiniang were speechless as they looked at Xu Erfu.
"Cough cough …. What I mean is, even if someone else met with such a thing, they would not sit idly by," Xu Erfu explained sheepishly.
Chu Mo looked at Miao Yiniang, whose eyes were slightly red, and recalled the events of the past.
Speaking of Miao Yiniang, one had to start from four years ago.
That year, Chu Mo and Xu Erfu were only nine years old.
In an ordinary family, they would just be two snot-nosed babies. However, at the age of nine, the two of them had already done many things that even adults could only dream of.
That's right, that year was when Xu Erfu had redeemed the most popular prostitute in Yan Huang City's largest brothel.
Because of this, Xu Erfu had been under considerable pressure. Not only from his family, but also from all over the world. That brothel could become the largest brothel in Yan Huang City, and naturally had a strong backing. There were even rumors that the boss behind that brothel was Prince Xia Jing.
But whether it was Chu Mo or Xu Erfu, they both knew that this was not a rumor.
A brothel would need at least seven to eight years to groom a prostitute. In this process, they would need to expend a great deal of wealth and effort to groom an outstanding prostitute.
The most popular one …. Needless to say, how much effort and wealth had to be expended.
Even so, for a top brothel, it was not that they could not afford to compensate the most popular prostitute.
The most popular prostitute was also a product of flattery. If one left, they would just have to flatter another. But once they opened their mouths, then in the future, the brothel would be in deep trouble if a son of an elite official like Xu Erfu came to ask for a prostitute.
In a few years, they would probably have to close down.
Therefore, the brothel held on, and used both carrot and stick. They used many connections to beg Xu Erfu to let the prostitute go.
But at that time, the one who supported Xu Erfu the most in taking the prostitute away … was Chu Mo!
Because at that time, if Xu Erfu had not taken the girl away, her fate … would have been extremely tragic!
The prostitutes in the brothel, in theory, only sold their skills and not their bodies. Each of them had extraordinary talents. They were proficient in the four arts of music, chess, calligraphy, painting, and embroidery.
The most popular one was naturally the most talented one.
But this did not sell her body …. That was only in theory. If a powerful figure really took a liking to her, just selling her skills … would be like a thin piece of paper that could be torn apart with a single poke!
The one who had taken a liking to the prostitute was none other than the Prime Minister of Da Xia. Other than the emperor, he was the most powerful man - Xia Jing!
