After a night of dejection.
Su Qing returned to Xu Ningying's residence.
As it happened, Xu Ningying was just about to go out.
Su Qing walked up and asked, "Xu Ningying, where are you headed?"
"Guarding Shangjing. It's my turn on duty today." Seeing Su Qing once more, Xu Ningying found that he seemed even more charming.
His eyes, in particular, looked as if they were full of color.
"You..."
"You've changed so much. Your eyes are really beautiful."
Xu Ningying stared for a moment, then realized she was losing her composure.
She couldn't help but look away, a faint blush creeping up her neck.
Su Qing asked, puzzled, "Have I? It's probably just some recent progress in my Cultivation."
"The smell of alcohol and perfume on you is so strong."
Xu Ningying wrinkled her nose in disgust, not expecting that Su Qing also liked to frequent brothels.
Su Qing just smiled.
"That five thousand silver, is it enough to buy a residence in Shangjing?"
