In Another World, Everyone Want to Kill Me!-Chapter 175: Behind Closed Doors

In Piaoxiang Courtyard, there were plenty of unwilling people, as well as those occasionally sent here by their masters to be tormented.

She did not know which type this ugly person in front of her was.

It would be more appropriate to call the madam over.

Qiuyu understood immediately and slipped toward the door.

Just as she was about to open it, she was blocked by a burst of inner force.

Seeing that Li Xunhuan had made a move, the atmosphere, which had been somewhat relaxed just moments before, instantly became heavy.

Qiuyue clearly knew that the burst of inner force had been released by the green-clad man.

Although she was angry, she did not dare to show it and instead spoke with a hint of coquettishness.

"Oh my, Young Master Li, why are you using your skills for no reason? Look how you’ve frightened all the sisters in the room."

From the very beginning, Xi Yu’s attention had been fixed on Yue Mingxuan. Seeing Li Xunhuan make a move, he said, "Who here has made you uncomfortable?"

Li Xunhuan glanced at Qiuyu who was shrinking by the doorway, and said, "Nothing much. I simply don’t like seeing certain noisy people."

Xi Yu followed Li Xunhuan’s gaze and saw Qiuyu cowering by the door. His tone immediately turned cold. "I remember saying that if anyone makes Li Xunhuan unhappy, it’s the same as making me unhappy. The way you’re acting now, are you treating my words as nothing?"

Seeing Xi Yu lose his temper, Qiuyue hurried over to his side.

As she rubbed her chest against his arm, she spoke in a soft, coquettish voice, "Oh my, Young Master Xi, it was I who told Qiuyu to go call the madam. This Ger has ruined our mood for enjoying ourselves here. Look, ever since she arrived, none of the sisters have been happy anymore."

Yue Mingxuan watched Qiuyue acting coquettishly with cold eyes, feeling some disgust in his heart.

The top courtesan of Qiuyue Hall did not possess even the slightest trace of aloofness or refinement.

No matter how one looked at her, she did not resemble a clear courtesan at all.

Qiuyue had originally carried herself with a measure of aloof pride and had always disdained engaging in overtly fawning behavior toward men.

However, after staying in the mire for too long, she gradually developed thoughts of redeeming herself and leaving this life behind.

Xi Yu was generous with his money and both young and handsome.

During this period, he had frequented Qiuyue Hall quite often, and Madam Yu had been so delighted collecting the gold he gave that she smiled from ear to ear all day long.

Because of this, Qiuyue began to harbor thoughts of attaching herself to him.

She had hinted and implied several times, yet Xi Yu had never shown any reaction.

As a result, when she was in front of him, her words and actions inevitably appeared a bit too eager.

Hearing Qiuyue speak like this, Xi Yu smiled and lifted her chin with a finger. "So you’re actually thinking of me?"

Being treated so ambiguously by Xi Yu for the first time, Qiuyue could not help but blush deeply as she said, "If Young Master Xi treats Qiuyue this way, Qiuyue is willing to attend upon you at your side..."

Yue Mingxuan stared at the scene before him, completely dumbfounded.

Compared to Qiuyue, those so-called "green tea" schemers from his previous life were simply not on the same level at all.

Deflecting blame, acting coquettish, seducing, all done seamlessly in one breath.

Paired with that shy and bashful expression, no man could possibly withstand it.

Xi Yu slowly leaned closer to Qiuyue’s face, and Qiuyue shyly closed her eyes.

Although being intimate in front of so many people was somewhat embarrassing, in her heart, compared to leaving this brothel, such matters were insignificant.

Yue Mingxuan turned his head away somewhat helplessly.

The last time he had accidentally witnessed a live sex scene in the palace, he had ended up being dragged to this hellish place to do unpaid labor.

This time, he intended to stay as far away as possible.

That fellow Xi Yu’s back injury had not even fully healed yet, and he was already so eager for lust.

It would be best if his wound split open during sex and hurt him to death.

Only Li Xunhuan continued to watch Xi Yu’s actions with a faint smile on his face.

As friends for many years, he understood Xi Yu well.

An assassin would not easily draw close to others unless he had something to gain.

Xi Yu gently leaned close to Qiuyue’s ear.

To outsiders, they looked like an intimate couple whispering sweet words, but only Qiuyue could hear what he actually said.

"Women are cuter when they’re a bit stupid. Those who pretend to be clever can be used for momentary amusement. But if they start coveting things they shouldn’t covet, or meddling in things they shouldn’t meddle in, then that’s not stupidity, it’s foolishness."

Upon hearing Xi Yu’s words, Qiuyue felt as though she had fallen into an ice cellar, a chill running from head to toe.

When Xi Yu straightened up, her body went limp and she collapsed onto the floor, her pretty face turning deathly pale.

The others did not know what had transpired between the two, nor did they dare ask.

Only Li Xunhuan stood up and walked out.

That fellow was always so ruthless, but when dealing with this kind of woman, there was no need to leave any room for mercy.

Seeing the sudden shift in the situation, two people who had seemed intimate just moments ago now ending up like this, Yue Mingxuan feared he might become Qiuyue’s outlet for venting her anger.

He quietly followed Li Xunhuan and slipped out as well.

Before leaving, he glanced at the table inside the room and swallowed his saliva hard.

If Xi Yu were clever enough, perhaps he might still be able to snag a few bites right now.
