Gong Juechen immediately said, "Why aren't you letting me in? Zhizhi, are you angry? Otherwise, why would you leave home where everything is fine and come here to stay?"
Without waiting for Ye Zhi's reply, Gong Juechen continued, "But why are you angry? I just went to the brothel to check on the girls' health. The night visits are much more expensive than daytime ones. I even sold quite a few of the incense pills we made. The girls at Nuan Huan Pavilion were scrambling to get them, saying they smell especially nice, perfect to wear on their bodies, and want me to sell them some more next time."
Inside the room, lying in bed in the dark, Ye Zhi felt especially aggrieved. She really didn't want Gong Juechen to go to the brothel, even if it was to earn money. However, despite wanting to say this, she found it difficult to express.
She knew he only liked her for her face.
