Time Travel: Brothel Maid

Chapter 129 Rumors

Zhao Yunrong lay on the bed, with a lot of thoughts in his mind. Although his body was extremely tired, his mind could not fall asleep.

It was a sultry summer night, but he felt cold all over.

My father once said that his mother was the woman he loved most. He loved her, so he was also his most beloved son.

But now, he put his beloved son in danger. Can this be called love?

Xie Mengwan kept saying that she would not marry anyone else but him, and seemed to be deeply in love with him. However, when she heard that he was going to Huaiyang to control the plague, apart from telling him to "be careful", she did not take any practical actions.

On weekdays, letters are constantly sent by wild geese, and the words between the lines are full of lovesickness and words of care, which are empty and meaningless. Can such behavior really be called true love?

Such "true feelings" seem worthless compared to Tang Jingchen's common friend named Xiao Guoer.

Chasing across thousands of miles regardless of danger is worthy of the word "true love".

A friend can still do such a thing, but Xie Mengwan, who once said that she was willing to give everything for him, only knew how to waste time writing some meaningless love words.

Suddenly, Zhao Yunrong sneered in the darkness and felt even more ridiculous.

What was he thinking? Was he hoping that there would be someone in this world who would treat him sincerely?

It's simply ridiculous. What does he need something that is so vague, rootless and difficult to grasp?

What he wants is the supreme position of the emperor! When he aspires to be the emperor, who would dare not sincerely submit to him?

By that time, he will have whatever he wants, and the whole world will belong to him, let alone the so-called "sincerity"?

In the darkness, Zhao Yunrong's heart became more and more determined, but also more and more indifferent.

He must return safely from this Huaiyang plague.

Isn't it just a plague? The villagers who can't be cured will be locked up and left to die! Nothing can stop him!

On the second day after arriving in Huaiyang, everyone got up early, even Xiaoguoer, who always liked to stay in bed, got up early.

She put on her clothes and was about to look for Jingchen. When she reached the corner of the corridor, she heard two little maids whispering to each other while hiding behind a poplar tree.

"Did Chuntao, who lives in the same room with you, catch the eye of Mr. Tang yesterday? She was chosen by the steward to serve the nobleman because she is prettier than us. Maybe she will follow Mr. Tang to the capital in the future. Her life is better than yours and mine."

Another maid curled her lips, looked around to see that there was no one around, and then lowered her voice and said, "Chun Tao came back yesterday with a sad face and told me that she didn't see Master Tang at all. The person living in that room was a kid with a scar on his face."

"What! What's going on?"

"At dawn today, Chuntao went to the steward to report on her work. Unexpectedly, she saw Master Tang walking out of his servant's room with a tired look on his face. He looked so haggard and exhausted. It seemed that he had been busy for most of the night!" The little maid described it vividly, as if she had seen it with her own eyes.

"What did you say! This... are you saying... that Mr. Tang... is a homosexual? So he switched rooms with someone else to go look for his servant?"

"Shh! Keep your voice down!"

"That Mr. Tang is handsome and his family is said to be very wealthy, but I didn't expect that he is actually a homosexual who doesn't like women?"

"Who says it's not true? Chuntao is still in the room sighing and groaning, saying 'What a pity for such a handsome man.'"

"Haha, that little girl must be in love, she can't wait to sleep with a man."

"She is good-looking, so she is naturally more ambitious. Unlike you and me, we can only be maids. What a miserable life."

"I think you are also thinking about love, so just ask your cousin to come and marry you."

"You dare to tease me, I will punish you!"

"Good sister, please forgive me, I won't dare to do it again..."

The two maids ran away playfully, and Xiao Guoer came out slowly from the corner.

She felt that there must be three black lines hanging from her head, and a crow flew over her head, making a "cackle" sound...

She was really speechless! These maids really had rich imaginations!

Jingchen was actually misunderstood as a gay?

Xiao Guoer felt helpless but also a little unhappy. Even if Jingchen was misunderstood as a gay man, he should be gay with her! How could it be Shun'er?

No! Jingchen must stay back tonight. Even if there are rumors, they can only be rumors about Jingchen and her little Guoer! It can't be anyone else!

Xiao Guoer walked hurriedly, and after taking just two steps, she bumped into a girl who suddenly came from the corner. The girl's body swayed, and the food box in her hand accidentally fell to the ground.

They both cried out "Ah!" and looked at the fallen food box. A bowl of thick porridge was spilled out.

This bowl of porridge seemed very important to the girl. Her face immediately became serious. She squatted down and neatly picked up the food box on the ground.

It's hard to say who was at fault in this incident, because it was a corner and neither of them saw each other, so they bumped into each other.

"I'm sorry, little brother. It's all my fault for not paying attention."

Xiao Guoer was stunned. This girl really had a good personality. She looked at her carefully. She had a good appearance. She had black hair, white skin, big eyes and thin eyebrows. She looked very pitiful. Xiao Guoer immediately had a good impression of her.

"How can you blame it all on you? It's also my fault that I didn't pay attention and bumped into you, causing you to knock over the lunch box."

The girl looked a little anxious, as if she wanted to leave quickly. She didn't want to talk to her any more. "Excuse me, little brother. I have something else to do. I'll leave now."

Xiao Guoer quickly made way for her.

"What are you looking at?"

Xiao Guoer was staring at the girl's back in a daze when suddenly a familiar voice came to her ears.

Xiao Guoer turned around and saw Tang Jingchen, who looked exhausted with dark circles under his eyes, smiling at her.

Uh...it does look like he's overindulged in sexual activities.

"Why do you look so bad? Didn't you sleep well last night?"

Shun'er, who was behind Tang Jingchen, heard Xiao Guo'er ask this and her face turned red. She lowered her head as if she was quite embarrassed.

Seeing this, Xiao Guoer was furious. Without waiting for Tang Jingchen to answer, she directly asked Shuner, "Shuner, why are you blushing?"

No wonder his shy look made others imagine things! If she didn't know these two people, she would definitely have the wrong idea!
