Chapter 92: What kind of decent person goes to this kind of place for a date!
"This official, you are truly a good person; thank you again this time."
Wu Nanzhi was still very polite, expressing her gratitude to Xiao Ming before leaving.
In any case, he could be considered to have kicked Ma Gao, that annoying person, away for Wu Nanzhi.
But she shouldn't have thanked him; thanking him made Xiao Ming even more broken.
For no reason, he received a "good person card," and Xiao Ming's sycophant career collapsed halfway.
"It's okay, this is my duty." Xiao Ming said with a bitter smile.
Looking at Wu Nanzhi's departing back, he transferred his anger to Ma Gao, who was laughing on the side.
Ma Gao originally didn't like Xiao Ming, and now seeing Xiao Ming's frustrated look, he was naturally very happy.
Anyway, the goddess I can't get, you don't even think about getting!
Still want to step on me to get ahead? You kid fell miserably!
Seeing this, the Sage's remnant soul was also very gratified, and he could feel energy fluctuating in Xiao Ming's body.
It was estimated that after this time, Xiao Ming's strength would improve by a small margin.
On the other side, after leaving Changqing Street, Li Chen said casually, "Were those your friends just now?"
Wu Nanzhi shook her head and replied, "I don't know either; they might be officials patrolling nearby; the person is quite good."
She didn't want to admit she knew Ma Gao, and she indeed didn't know Xiao Ming.
Today Wu Nanzhi was wearing a beige knee-length dress; this kind of clothing could outline her soft willow waist.
Her body was undulating, beautiful and breathtaking, exquisite and protruding just right.
If her figure wasn't good, she really couldn't wear such a graceful feeling.
Since he noticed this domineering sister changed her clothes, Li Chen still expressed his appreciation.
In Li Chen's view, she was a clothes hanger; everything looked good on her, and of course, she looked good without them too.
Wu Nanzhi was very satisfied with the former words; it would be even better if the last sentence wasn't said!
The two strolled around the market for a while; Wu Nanzhi had her own money and bought some food, looking like a couple on a date.
"Where are we going next?" Wu Nanzhi was perhaps a bit tired from walking, so she asked Li Chen, this local of the Imperial Capital, what other fun places there were.
In fact, for Li Chen, the Imperial Capital wasn't very familiar either; after all, he was relatively home-bound.
But speaking of dating spots, Li Chen really thought of one.
Saying this, Li Chen took Wu Nanzhi to a relatively mysterious place.
Wu Nanzhi originally thought it was a dating spot, but when she arrived, she found—what the hell? Teaching division?
She looked at Li Chen with a surprised face, that expression seemingly saying: The two of us go to this place? You aren't joking?
If you took me to an inn, I could understand.
What kind of decent person goes to the teaching division for a date?
What kind of strange train of thought is this? Wu Nanzhi really couldn't keep up more and more.
If Li Chen knew she was thinking this, he would really take her to an inn.
"Don't worry, it's not as complicated as you think inside, and I brought enough money."
Under Li Chen's trickery, Wu Nanzhi still followed him in.
This was her first time coming to this kind of romantic place in her life.
Before this, her impression of this kind of place was dangerous and vulgar.
Because this was the place noble children loved to come to the most, very easy to have conflicts.
And not everyone who enters here does that kind of thing.
Even if she hadn't done it for real at her age, she must have heard of it.
If it weren't for Li Chen being by her side, she really wouldn't have come in.
In Wu Nanzhi's impression, Li Chen, not to mention anything else, had truly terrifying strength.
He must have a certain status in the Imperial Capital, so he should be able to avoid a lot of trouble.
The teaching division was a high-end place, not just anyone who wanted to come in could come in.
If you didn't have status, you needed to pass various examinations and registrations to obtain the qualification to enter.
It was like there was a pile of students near the entrance wanting to enter the teaching division through their literary talent.
Many courtesans liked scholars.
But most students here were turned away; after all, the Spring Examination was approaching, and those with ability were basically preparing for the exam, so how could they mess around here?
Some merchants and wealthy families could spend a lot of money to buy admission tickets. To put it plainly, it was opening a quarterly membership; even if you didn't come during the opening period, it would deduct your time.
If you wanted to get value-added services, you needed to continue spending money.
As for martial artists, they needed to have a certain social status to meet the requirements to enter.
For example, Xiao Ming; his cultivation base was considered high before, but he didn't have the qualification to enter, but now that he was an official in the Ministry of Justice, he could naturally enter.
Of course, these were the entry conditions for others; Li Chen didn't need to do these. The maid at the entrance had eyes like torches, or could be said to be specially trained; Li Chen's attire wasn't something ordinary nobles could obtain, so this kind of person didn't need examination and registration at all.
"May I ask the young master's surname?"
"Li."
After inquiring and learning his surname was Li, the maid was even less daring to be negligent.
No matter if Li Chen was Imperial clan or not, they would treat Li Chen as a distinguished guest.
It was just that the maid was very puzzled—how come this person brought a woman?
!
If it were an ordinary woman, that would be fine, but Wu Nanzhi's appearance made even the maid who was used to seeing courtesans feel amazed.
With such a woman by his side, why come to the teaching division?
Not understanding was not understanding, but professional ethics meant not asking what shouldn't be asked.
Li Chen asked the maid to open a separate small courtyard for the two of them, and then it was the service items here.
Before the service items came, Wu Nanzhi looked around curiously and then said to Li Chen, "Looks like you are very skilled."
"This is my first time coming here too." Li Chen said with a straight face.
He really hadn't been here, but this kind of place was much the same.
"Do you think I believe it?" Wu Nanzhi rolled her eyes, but this look made her even more charming.
At this time, she was still thinking: Li Chen wouldn't do those things with the courtesan in front of her, right?
If she had known, she shouldn't have come to this place.
But her thoughts changed significantly a few minutes later.
The services Li Chen ordered were all "massage," "guiding," and "cushioning"—to put it plainly, it was regular foot massage, served by professional maids.
At first, Wu Nanzhi wasn't very used to it, but these maids served well, helping her relax her body through massage on one hand, and providing emotional value through chatting on the other.
Slowly, she felt that this place was actually not bad, not as unbearable as she had imagined.
Besides this, one could also taste tea, listen to music, and watch dancing here.
As long as you spent money, you could enjoy distinguished service.
Wu Nanzhi was in a sudden mood and really ordered an entertainer to come over, enjoying the sound of silk and bamboo, and the crisp and loud music.
"I just said why you men all like to come to this kind of place."
Wu Nanzhi, while enjoying the foot massage service, chatted freely with Li Chen.
It seemed she was quite satisfied with this rather alternative date.
Honestly, among the men she had seen, Li Chen was the one she couldn't see through the most; she didn't know what Li Chen was going to do next at all. 【92
So, being by Li Chen's side, it seemed like every day was a surprise for her.
Gradually, she even began to forget her original intention for agreeing to a date with Li Chen, which was just to make him embarrass himself.
"This is just the beginning; the night is even more exciting," Li Chen said with a smile.
Wu Nanzhi just let out a hum and did not reply.
However, Li Chen was only acting on a whim, trying things out as they came to mind, without too many ulterior thoughts.
After the service was nearly over, he prepared to take Wu Nanzhi and leave.
They couldn't really spend the night here, after all.
Just as the two were walking on the path from the small courtyard to the main gate, Li Chen inadvertently saw a passerby on a pavilion not far away and frowned.
Wu Nanzhi followed his gaze, and what came into view was an extremely beautiful woman.
Her contours were elegant, her brows as light as spring mountains, and her eyes as deep as autumn water, revealing a noble and dignified temperament, just like a celestial fairy descended to the mortal world.
Even though it was just a fleeting glance before she disappeared from Wu Nanzhi's field of vision, it still made her feel a sense of astonishment.
She hadn't expected that in this place of pleasure, there would be such an elegant and dignified woman.
"Don't tell me that's your old flame?" Wu Nanzhi speculated.
"Where is your mind wandering? If I'm not mistaken, I should actually call her sister-in-law," Li Chen replied.
Li Chen also couldn't understand why the Crown Princess would be in this place.
