HRPM – Chapter 48 A Tragic Date (12)

“Heh, so you saw through it. Then are you going to fall for it?”

Jin Luoluo had calculated that even if he knew it was a trap, he would still jump in—no man could tolerate having his pride belittled by a woman.

But Xiao Che’s answer caught her off guard.

“Just a couple of words from you, and you think you can hurt my pride? You’re not qualified. Yunxiao is just a courtesan—not worth me exposing my identity for. Hmph.” Xiao Che sneered coldly.

Jin Luoluo thought to herself that this Xiao Che wasn’t some hotheaded fool who exploded at the slightest provocation—he was actually quite thoughtful.

But she wanted to see the top courtesan. After being transported to ancient times for so long, she still hadn’t seen one—this was a major regret for her.

“Fine, fine, you cheapskate. If you won’t treat me, I’ll do it myself. Today, I absolutely must see Yunxiao,” Jin Luoluo said lazily to the madam. “Tell that brat—this young lady bids seven thousand.”

With people competing to bid for Yunxiao, the madam was naturally delighted, grinning from ear to ear.

Before long, she came running back excitedly.

“That guest says eight thousand.”

“Hmph, so he wants to go against me? Nine thousand.” Jin Luoluo exuded the aura of the richest woman, casually tossing out a stack of silver notes.

That person really seemed intent on opposing her.

The two kept raising the price all the way to twenty thousand—far beyond even the price for a top courtesan’s first night.

“Hehe, miss, that person is offering twenty thousand taels. Do you want to raise it further?” The madam was smiling like a blooming chrysanthemum.

Jin Luoluo lazily flicked her fingers and smiled slyly. “Only an idiot would spend twenty thousand taels on a courtesan. That fool must have lost his mind. Five thousand is already her maximum worth. I didn’t expect some idiot to clash with me. Since he wants to go against me, it’d be no fun if I didn’t toy with him a bit—I was deliberately raising the price to make him bleed heavily.”

Jin Luoluo pulled out another piece of paper and handed it to the madam, laughing so hard she swayed.

“Take this to that young master.”

“Young master, you’ve spent twenty thousand taels just to have Yunxiao accompany you. How could I deserve such favor?”

The top courtesan Yunxiao, seeing this handsome young man spend so extravagantly just to keep her, was both shocked and delighted.
