Yu Chang's mind worked quickly. She asked the teapot beside her and knew that Lu Xi would be returning soon. If she brought up the matter of selling Fu Zhi now, she would definitely get into an argument with Lu Xi. The gains would not make up for the losses.
Therefore, she turned to Pang Xiao with a smile and said, "Young Master, Fu Xue still has a guest, so it's not good to call her out right now. This servant will personally send someone to deliver her to you later, is that alright?"
Pang Xiao raised his eyebrows and pretended to be displeased, "What, this prince spent money and still has to suffer such grievances? Is this prince's money not real money? "
"What are you talking about?" Yu Chang slapped her thigh and shook her head, "This prince is a handsome and magnanimous person. Why would he lower himself to the same level as people like us? Besides, even if you lent us ten thousand guts, we wouldn't dare to deceive you. In a moment, I will definitely deliver her to you. If I don't, our Cuixiang Pavilion is right here. If you come back and smash my Cuixiang Pavilion, I won't complain and will let you do whatever you want with me! "
When Pang Xiao heard this, he seemed to have calmed down a bit.
"Alright, since you've said so, this prince won't make things difficult for you. Give me her indenture contract first, then we'll write another one and send her over later. "
"Ah, in the end, you're still the most reasonable one."
Yu Chang giggled and ordered someone to bring Fu Xue's indenture contract. She also had someone write a contract and bring it over on a tray, then stamped it with her handprint.
Qin Yining stepped forward and took the two items. After confirming that there were no mistakes, he handed them over to Pang Xiao.
Pang Xiao seemed to have lost his patience and threw the items to Huzi behind him. Then, he swaggered away with Qin Yining's shoulder.
Yu Chang watched Pang Xiao's back as he walked away. She couldn't help but put her hands together and pray.
Heavens bless me, I've finally gotten rid of this hot potato!
Hopefully, the Lu family's young master won't come looking for trouble.
However, she wasn't afraid even if the Lu family sent someone over. She could just say that someone had forced her to go there, and she just had to pull herself out of the situation.
Qin Yining returned to the pleasure boat with Pang Xiao.
Bing Tang and Ji Yun served the refreshments and retreated to the side.
Qin Yining picked up the pastel teacup and took a sip to soothe his throat. "Now that we've bought her, the Lu family should be here soon. Have you thought about how to deal with it? "
"Counter soldiers with arms, water with an earth weir. No matter how powerful the Lu Clan is, can they be more powerful than me? " Pang Xiao moved closer to Qin Yining and sat down next to her. He placed his large hand on her shoulder and pulled her into his arms.
Qin Yining chuckled and reached out to push him away. "Are you addicted to hugging her? She didn't want it to become a habit. If she did it again when she returned home, wouldn't she scare everyone at home? This is not dignified and will be a joke to others. "
"What's there to be afraid of? I'm a military ruffian, so why should I be dignified? Moreover, most of the men in the military left their wives and children to fight in the war to earn money. Now that they have the chance to go home, who doesn't want to crawl into their wives' beds first? You and I don't spend much time together. I hate that I can't hold you in my arms every day. Now that we have the chance to meet, you want me to follow the rules? Aren't you being too unreasonable?! "
As Pang Xiao spoke, his large hands rudely touched Qin Yining's body. Whenever he found her ticklish flesh, he would unceremoniously sneak an attack on her.
Qin Yining was the most ticklish, so she laughed and dodged.
Pang Xiao held back his strength to tease her. He loved to see her gasping for breath, blushing cheeks, laughing and begging for mercy. He only stopped when the beautiful woman was laughing until her eyes were watery, and she was glaring at him with resentment and anger.
As for Bing Tang and Ji Yun, they were used to serving her, so they had already retreated a long time ago. They definitely wouldn't be so insensible as to appear when they shouldn't.
The two of them laughed and joked for a while. Suddenly, Pang Xiao raised his finger and made a shushing gesture.
Qin Yining sat up in confusion and looked at him. Only then did she realize that Huzi was talking to someone on the shore. There was also the sound of a woman's suppressed crying on the shore.
Qin Yining admired Pang Xiao's hearing. Just now, they were all fooling around, so she didn't hear anything unusual.
The two of them left the bedroom and walked to the corridor to look out the window.
With the light from the large red lanterns on the pleasure boat, they could see that two strong men were holding a girl with a big braid. She was wearing a small jacket and trousers. The girl was forced to kneel on the ground and was struggling with all her might. Her mouth was gagged with a rag, so she was crying.
Qin Yining couldn't help but feel pity for her. "She's also a pitiful person. Let her go when the matter is resolved."
Pang Xiao smiled and said, "I'll listen to you."
The two of them walked to the deck hand in hand. Pang Xiao smiled and walked to the front of the deck. He hugged Qin Yining with one hand and put the other hand on his waist. With his legs crossed and his back hunched, he said casually, "I asked your Caixiang Pavilion to send someone over. Why did you send her so late? Are you looking down on this young master?! Let me tell you, this young master is the young master of the Wan Family of Guangtong Island. In the future, the entire Guangtong Island will be mine! You people should be careful. If you offend me, you'll be skinned! "
When Qin Yining heard Pang Xiao's tone, he almost couldn't hold back his laughter. He hurriedly buried his face in Pang Xiao's arms and grinned happily.
When Pang Xiao saw the person in his arms like this, he almost couldn't hold it in. However, he still managed to hold it in with his strong willpower.
Under the pleasure boat, Big Teapot, who had brought people over, quickly bowed and smiled apologetically, "Young master, please calm down. We don't dare to have such intentions. It's this girl who doesn't know any better. Let me explain to her and she'll immediately understand."
As soon as he turned around, Big Teapot's expression changed. He bent down and pinched Fu Xue's chin, raising her head. He gnashed his teeth and said, "You damn girl, I advise you to be sensible! Why don't you take a look at where you are! This is Young Master Wan. How can you make a scene in front of him!
"Do you think that your lover can save you? To put it bluntly, no matter how high his status is, he's just a servant. He's just relying on his master's favor! Master sold you, but he's unwilling to let go. If this continues, sooner or later, he'll be at odds with his master. At that time, he can't even protect himself, so how can he protect you? Take a look at this one! "
Big Teapot flashed and forced Fu Xue, whose face was full of tears, to look at the boat, "This is a young master! Since he's taken a fancy to you, you can't run away. Why don't you follow him? In the future, you'll have a son or a daughter, and he'll be willing to be your concubine. Wouldn't you be satisfied with this life?
"Many girls in the brothel dream of a future. You finally got it, so don't make a fuss. Accept your fate! If you make a fuss again, I'll throw you into the lake to feed the fish! "
Big Teapot's lecturing and threatening made Fu Xue really stop. She raised her head and stared blankly at the tall figure standing on the deck. The lights on both sides just happened to illuminate his handsome face. He had sword-like eyebrows and phoenix-like eyes. Such a young and handsome person wanted her?
Big Teapot saw that she was sensible and finally let out a sigh of relief. He turned around and bowed to Pang Xiao, "Young Master Wan, she's sensible now. Do you want her to go up?"
"Yes." Pang Xiao stretched out his voice and nodded, "Come up."
The two men tried to loosen their grip, but Fu Xue didn't struggle anymore. Instead, she got up and threw away the rag in her mouth. She patted the dust off her clothes, lowered her head, and obediently followed Hu Zi onto the boat step by step.
Big Teapot saw that they got on the boat, bowed to the two strong men, and quickly ran away. Finally, they got rid of the hot potato. Everyone let out a sigh of relief.
Huzi brought Fu Xue onto the deck and retreated to Pang Xiao's side.
Fu Xue knelt down and kowtowed, "Fu Xue greets the young master."
Her voice was soft and sweet, and pleasant to the ear.
Pang Xiao grunted, "Get up."
"Thank you, young master." Fu Xue stood up and looked up at Pang Xiao. When she saw him, she was stunned.
When they were on the shore, there was some distance, and it was also night. Even if there was a light, she couldn't see clearly. Now that she saw him up close, Fu Xue's face turned red. She lowered her head shyly and said, "Thank you, young master, for redeeming my freedom. From now on, I'm your woman. I'll go through fire and water for you. No matter what you want me to do, I'll do it willingly."
Qin Yining raised his eyebrows and looked at Fu Xue. Did she take a fancy to her husband?
Pang Xiao frowned. Then, he said calmly, "How can the Young Master make such a beautiful woman like you sacrifice your life for him?"
Fu Xue's heart trembled. She quickly looked up at Pang Xiao and lowered her head again, "Young master, I'll do as you say. Even if you want me to serve you for the rest of my life, I'm willing."
So she was this kind of person.
Pang Xiao sneered. It was a pity that his Sister Yi's kindness was wasted.
"There's no need for you to serve me for the rest of your life. I'm lacking a servant girl on my pleasure boat. You'll work hard on the boat from now on."
"Servant, servant girl?" Fu Xue looked up in surprise. Her eyes widened, and her small nose wrinkled. She pursed her lips, feeling wronged, "Young master, you want me to be a servant girl? Young master, you don't know, but I used to be a servant girl who took care of brushes and ink. I can read and write. Fu Xue … "
"What, you don't want to?" Pang Xiao frowned in distress, "I don't like to read, so I don't need a servant girl who takes care of brushes and ink. I already have many beauties serving me." As he spoke, he put his arm around Qin Yining's waist, "I'm lacking a servant girl. If you don't want to, it's fine. I'll order someone to send you back to Caixiang Pavilion and have Yuchang return the money to me."
"Young master, don't!" Fu Xue was so scared that she knelt down with a flop. She cried and said bitterly, "I didn't say I don't want to. I'll do whatever you ask. As long as I can follow you and serve you, I'm willing to do anything."
Pang Xiao nodded with satisfaction, kissed Qin Yining, and introduced, "This is Mrs. Ning, the master of the boat."
Fu Xue then turned her eyes from Pang Xiao to Qin Yining. Her pupils suddenly shrank when she saw her.
Her smile stiffened, and she reluctantly saluted, "Nice to meet you, Mrs. Ning."
Qin Yining leaned against Pang Xiao's arms as if she had no bones, and squeezed out a snort from her nose, "Humph!"
Fu Xue gritted her teeth and lowered her head.
Pang Xiao was almost amused by Qin Yining's snort. He kept repeating in his heart, "How can my Sister Yi be so cute? How can she be so cute?" He was afraid that he would laugh out loud if he stayed any longer, so he hurriedly took Qin Yining into the cabin and casually said,
