It seems that you are dishonest
The Fengyue place is undoubtedly the man’s favorite destination. Baili Hongzhuang followed closely behind him.
Once the man entered the room with a courtesan in his arms, Baili Hongzhuang also revealed her presence.
The man was taken aback when he saw Baili Hongzhuang, “How did you end up here?”
As expected, something was amiss!
Baili Hongzhuang raised an eyebrow and smiled lightly, “Why do you look so scared to see me?”
The man hesitated for a moment and then tried to compose himself, “I-I’m just surprised to see you here. Our transaction is already complete. What are you doing here?”
“Who is Lu Luo, be honest with me.”
Baili Hongzhuang walked up to the man, looking down at him with a proud expression.
“She’s just a woman I bought, nothing more.”
“It seems you’re not being honest.”
Baili Hongzhuang wasn’t surprised by the man’s attitude; some people wouldn’t admit their mistakes until they faced dire consequences.
In the next moment, Baili Hongzhuang grabbed the man’s neck, lifting him up in front of the shocked gazes of the man and the woman.
Though the man was sturdy, he was just an ordinary person, completely powerless in front of her.
“I’ll give you three seconds. Either speak the truth or die!”
Baili Hongzhuang’s gaze was cold; she despised people who plotted against her secretly, no matter who they were, she wouldn’t let them go!
The man’s face quickly turned red, and no matter how he struggled, it was in vain.
He felt the air leaving him little by little, looking into the indifferent eyes of the woman in front of him, he had no doubt that if he didn’t tell the truth, she would really kill him.
Thinking of this, the man couldn’t help but feel terrified. He blurted out, “Alright, I’ll talk!”
Seeing the fear in the man’s eyes, Baili Hongzhuang believed he wouldn’t dare to lie. She released her grip on his neck.
The man immediately fell to the ground, gasping for breath and greedily inhaled the air; he had almost died!
Looking at Baili Hongzhuang again, fear appeared in the man’s eyes.
“Speak!”
Just a simple word, but it shook the man’s mind. He no longer dared to hide anything and quickly spilled all the information he knew.
“Lady, I’ve been framed! I didn’t do anything! Today, someone found me and asked me to act in this play. I didn’t know who Lu Luo really was!”
The man knelt in front of Baili Hongzhuang. Usually, he only engaged in some petty illegal activities, but today someone came to him, promising a generous reward if he played this act. Greed took over, and he agreed without hesitation!
Moreover, later on, the woman in white gave him five hundred gold coins. It was like a godsend!
That’s why he came to the brothel in high spirits, but he didn’t expect to be caught by this lady, almost losing his life.
If he had known this would happen, he wouldn’t have agreed in the first place. There really were no free lunches in this world.
After hearing the man’s story, Baili Hongzhuang finally understood. It seemed her speculation was correct; this was all a well-orchestrated plan.
However, Lu Luo’s acting was indeed remarkable. If she didn’t have her past life’s experiences and was merely a sixteen-year-old girl, she probably would have been deceived.
