At this moment, a few extremely beautiful women came to the private room. They brought wine and exquisite dishes and were about to serve Yu Lang a few cups.
"Young Master, this is your first time here, right?"
The girl in red stared at Yu Lang's face and said," If such a handsome and noble young master like you came, I would definitely remember.”
Yu Lang was slightly disgusted. He frowned and looked up at the jade carving.
The jade carving took out a money pouch from his chest pocket and stuffed it into the woman's hands without counting. He ordered,"My young master likes peace and quiet.”
Those pretty girls actually burst out laughing. Someone said,""Why are you here if you like the quiet? Could it be that you think we're not beautiful enough?”
A girl in green clothes stared at Yu Lang and said to the sisters beside her,"Elder sister, actually we really don't catch the young master's eye. With Young Master's appearance, only a peerless beauty was worthy of him.”
The red-robed woman weighed the money bag and suddenly threw it at the jade statue. She said,""Today, this elder sister doesn't want money, I only wish to drink with Young Master.”With that, she poured a cup of wine and offered it to Yu Lang with both hands.
After a moment of stalemate, Yu Lang took a cup and drank it all with a cold face.
Wu Zhongyi came before Yu Lang and bowed respectfully, addressing him as Lord Marquis.
The women's eyes instantly became even more infatuated with Yu Lang.
Wu Zhongyi was dressed in black and had a fair face. After following a tomboy around in the brothel for the past few months, he looked a little kind-hearted.
When he saw Yu Lang, he could not help but be happy. His entire face was radiant as he said,"Lord Marquis, you're here to see Young Master Yu Tian, right? I'll go invite him over.”
"Go ahead," said Yu Lang with a smile. Wu Zhongyi jogged away.
The girl in red giggled and moved closer to Yu Lang. Yu Lang avoided her, so she smiled and said,"What kind of fashion is this now? Our Yu Tian is a man. You don't love us beauties.”
Yu Lang didn't want to say anything to her.
Other than Tao Yaoyao, he had never been in contact with any other women since he was young. He had spent his youth in the military until he reached adulthood. He simply did not know how to deal with women, let alone women from such a place.
He desperately suppressed the urge to throw these women down the stairs and drank his wine.
Tao Yaoyao did not even have time to change her clothes. As she ran over, she saw a few women surrounding Yu Lang and teasing him. They were asking him," What kind of person do you like?" and " Do you really like men?" Yu Lang had a pained expression on his face.
Without a word, she rushed forward and pulled the women away by their collars. She said sharply,"Let's go! This is my man. If you see him in the future, stand far away!”
"Wow, Young Master will come again in the future.”The girls were even more excited, like leeches that had seen blood.
Tao Yaoyao very naturally took the wine from Yu Lang's hand and drank it up. She said,"I'm so thirsty." Then, she grabbed the wine jug and poured it into her mouth, gulping it down as if it was water.
Yu Lang snatched the wine jug and glanced at her. He asked,"Your people?"
Tao Yaoyao thought about it. She had been living off him for so long, and now her two bodyguards were also given to her by him. Moreover, in name, she was still his attendant, taking his surname Yu. Hence, he smiled obsequiously and immediately corrected,""I'm yours, yours, yours…"
Yu Lang felt his ears heat up and his face turned red. He was so shocked that he could not describe his feelings with words.
Although he knew that there was nothing much to dig out about Yina's character, the ambiguity in the words still made his imagination run wild.
The group of girls came to a sudden realization and exclaimed,""Yu Tian, you, you, you…"
Tao Yaoyao immediately glared at them warningly. She turned around and snapped her fingers. She raised her hand and pointed at Yu Lang."You, you, you what? This is my brother.”
"Brother?" the girls asked eagerly.
Tao Yaoyao patted her chest proudly and pressed her hand on her chest. She smiled and said,"I am Yu Tian." Then, he walked in front of Yu Lang and raised his hands."Him, Yulang."
"Oh, kiss." The girls immediately looked at Tao Yaoyao with admiration.
Tao Yaoyao sat down contentedly under these envious gazes. She waved her hand and dismissed the group of girls, saying that they had disturbed her brother's drinking. The few women could only turn around and leave.
Tao Yaoyao had been jumping and dancing on the stage for so long that she was really thirsty and hungry. She could not help but eat the dishes on the table. She even called the jade statue over to eat and drink. The jade statue refused, so she actually said,"We're family.”The jade statue could only sit down obediently.
Yu Lang could not help but pour wine for Tao Yaoyao and said,"Eat slower and drink slower. No one is snatching it from you.”
"I'm so happy that big brother came to see me. My appetite will be better once I'm happy." Tao Yaoyao said happily.”
When Yu Lang heard this, he beamed with joy, and the corners of his mouth curved like a crescent moon.
He lovingly watched Tao Yaoyao eat happily and said gently,"Yaoyao, can you come home with me?”
The word "home" was used very well, and it was more powerful than an army. For a moment, Tao Yaoyao's heart was filled with heat, and a deep feeling of friendship filled her chest. So he really treats me as family.
Tao Yaoyao put down her chopsticks. In the past, she had rejected the two persuaders with absolute certainty, but hearing Yu Lang speak personally was a different matter altogether.
She was silent for a while, then hardened her soft heart and said,"Brother, I want to earn my own living."
Yu Lang took the initiative to serve her food and poured her wine. He said with a smile that was not a smile,"Who was the one who called me your brother just now?”
"Big brother." Tao Yaoyao called out affectionately," You should be able to earn your own living if you have a brother."”
Yu Lang gave her a questioning expression.
Tao Yaoyao rested her chin on her hands and racked her brains to think of a way to make him understand that she was not trying to distance herself from him.
In the end, she said," In my understanding, no matter who you are, you should be self-reliant and then self-reliant. If he wasn't financially independent, how could he be independent?”
"Can't I even be your family? Shouldn't father and brother be enough to rely on?" Yu Lang asked.
"It won't work."
"What if you have a husband?" Yu Lang gathered some courage and asked.
"It still won't work."
Tao Yaoyao knew that it might be too difficult to talk about a woman's independence to the ancient people. She suddenly thought of a poem and had an idea."I believe in equality between men and women. Marriage should not be about poverty. A strong man and a weak woman are not the best way to get married. The best husband and wife should be like this. The man was a towering tree, and the woman was not a dodder or a trumpet creeper. She should not use the man's high branches to show off her beauty.”
"What should that woman be?" Yu Lang was curious about her theory and asked.
Tao Yaoyao pondered and said,"A woman should be in the form of a tree and stand near a man." The roots were tightly held in the ground, and the leaves touched the clouds. They shared the cold wave, the wind and thunder, and the thunderbolt. They shared the mist, the rainbow, and the mist.”
Yu Lang saw that Tao Yaoyao was so focused and listened to his words. He sighed inwardly. What kind of strange woman was this? It was difficult to find her in this world.
Tao Yaoyao saw that Yu Lang was staring at him blankly and thought that her advanced theory had frightened him. She called out,"Brother, am I wrong?"
Yu Lang came back to his senses and retracted his gaze from her face. He poured himself a glass of wine to hide his embarrassment and said,"Yaoyao is an extraordinary woman. I admire her very much.”
"So you agree with my idea?”Tao Yaoyao asked.
"I agree with whatever you like." Yu Lang smiled at her.
The jade carving was really anxious as it watched from the side. It felt that if Yu Yao could not hear the affection in such naked words, then he would be lacking a nerve.
However, the person with the lack of brains was overjoyed."As expected of my brother. Let's become sworn brothers!”
Yu Lang was once again angered by her sudden turn of events.
Although Tao Yaoyao was analyzing Yu Lang at night, she had made up her mind not to get married. She thought that if she could become Yu Lang's sworn brother, it would be a shortcut to build a relationship.
The jade carving, who was drinking wine, choked on this sentence. The mouthful of wine went into his windpipe. He coughed until he turned the sky upside down. It could be considered as helping Yu Lang.
Tao Yaoyao immediately went over to pat the jade statue on the back while calling for the servant outside the room to bring some water. In her eyes, the jade statue was also a big brother, and there was no concept of men and women being intimate.
This wasn't the first time Yu Lang had suffered a blow. He got used to it as he endured it.
The jade sculpture, who had stopped coughing after drinking water, was thinking for Yu Lang, afraid that the idiot would continue the topic of brotherhood. It said,"Yu Tian, young master has something to tell you. It's very important.”
Hearing this, Tao Yaoyao's attention was indeed diverted. She asked Yu Lang curiously,"Why is Brother looking for me? It's very important.”
"You once said that you knew Jiao Yue from the Minister of Rites, right?"”
Tao Yaoyao suddenly became spirited, thinking that he was considering her recommendation from the other day. She said excitedly,"Of course. Not only do we know each other, but we're also good friends. My disciple."
She patted her chest proudly and looked into Yu Lang's eyes sneakily. She continued,"Whether big brother wants to marry JiaoYue, leave this matter to me. Big brother is so good, JiaoYue will definitely agree.”
The jade carving buried its head in its elbow, feeling sorry for Yu Lang.
Yu Lang looked straight into Tao Yaoyao's eyes and saw the sincerity in that person's voice. He struggled to organize his words and said,"It's not what you think. I don't want to marry her. But my mother has already gone to propose marriage.”
"Ah! Ah?" Tao Yaoyao was stunned. After a while, she said,"Brother, since what's done is done, you can just make do with it. Jiao Yue is really good. It will be very difficult for you to break off the engagement now. It's very rude to go back on your word.”
"I know," Yu Lang said irritably. But I don't want to marry her. I will never marry her! I just want to end this matter in a way that doesn't make it too embarrassing for both of us.”
"So, you're looking for me to be a lobbyist?”
"No, as long as you return to the residence and help me invite Miss Jiao Yue to a banquet, I will do the rest myself.”
Tao Yaoyao fell into deep thought.
"Yaoyao, is this difficult for you?" Yu Lang asked.”
"When I thought about how you wanted to hurt JiaoYue's heart, I…" she replied honestly.
Yu Lang looked into Tao Yaoyao's eyes and said,"Between me and JiaoYue, if you had to save one, who would you choose?”
Tao Yaoyao was practically threatening him with these words. It was like those little wives pestering him by saying," Your mother and I fell into the water at the same time."
However, he had to answer. Yu Lang was nervously waiting for the answer, not even breathing loudly.
" Brother's martial arts are unrivaled, and Jiaoyue is weak and can't take care of herself…"
Tao Yaoyao had just finished her analysis when Yu Lang rudely interrupted her and said,"They can't take care of themselves. You can only save one.”
" Brother, you're too unreasonable…"
Yu Lang raised his eyebrows and signaled her with his eyes,"Hurry up and choose."”
Tao Yaoyao had no choice but to think about it seriously for a long time.
Since ancient times, loyalty and righteousness were difficult to achieve both ends, choosing the lesser of the two evils. Yu Lang was kind to her, but she did not eat the rice of the Jiaoyue family.
So she said in a mosquito-like voice,"Save my brother."”
Yu Lang finally smiled, like a hundred flowers blooming, dazzling Tao Yaoyao's eyes.
