Protagonist:

Yan Qianqian

Qianqian seemed quite familiar with the Jiu Lou, without a trace of discomfort; she pulled Luo Shun along, heading inside without the slightest hesitation.

Seeing this, Luo Shunjian felt a flutter of panic in his heart and hurriedly said, "Eldest Brother Ming'an, this place looks very expensive at a glance!"

Qianqian, however, didn't mind, smiling as she said, "My treat, let's go! Don't worry." Speaking, she continued dragging Luo Shun into the Jiu Lou.

While being hauled along by Qianqian, Luo Shun still couldn't help asking worriedly, "We won't finish eating and then have me wash dishes here for a month, will we?"

His worry was not without reason; after all, a Jiu Lou this luxurious would certainly not be cheap.

Hearing Luo Shun's words, Qianqian finally couldn't help laughing out loud; she found Luo Shun's concern rather cute. After laughing, Qianqian reassured him, "Rest assured, absolutely not!"

The two had just stepped into the Jiu Lou when a sharp little waiter immediately came up to greet them.

Although the waiter saw their attire didn't look like especially wealthy people, since they had already come in, they presumably could afford to spend.

So the waiter said with a full-face smile, "Guests, two of you?"

Qianqian responded unhurriedly, then casually tossed a silver note to the waiter. The waiter fixed his gaze and saw it was actually a hundred-tael silver note!

His eyes instantly narrowed into a slit, the smile on his face blooming like spring flowers in full splendor; he hurriedly said, "Right away, two guests, please follow me."

Finished speaking, the waiter turned and led the way in front, while Qianqian and Luo Shun followed behind unhurriedly.

Luo Shun's gaze stayed fixed on the silver note Qianqian gave the waiter; his eyes stared round as if they would fall out.

He secretly marveled in his heart, this hundred-tael silver note is no small sum! However, he also understood that right now the Jiu Lou was full of people and loose tongues, not a good time to ask; better wait until they entered the private room to ask the whole story.

The two followed the waiter upstairs, arriving at a room. The waiter stopped his steps, gently pushed open the door, then turned around and said to the two behind him with a full-face smile, "Guests, please enter."

Seeing this, Qianqian stepped into the room without hesitation; Luo Shun, like a curious child, looked left and right, everything around him filled with novelty.

However, because the waiter was still at the side, although his heart itched, he was too embarrassed to reach out and touch those delicate-looking ornaments, afraid his behavior would appear too vulgar and draw laughter.

After both entered the room, the waiter politely asked, "Two guests, would you like to look at the menu and order some dishes?"

Qianqian, wearing a smile, elegantly handed the menu to Luo Shun and said softly, "Brother Luo, you order; whatever you like to eat, just order, no need to be restrained."

Luo Shun hurriedly took the menu and glanced at it casually; however, this one glance shocked him so much his eyeballs nearly fell out.

On the menu, a simple cold dish was actually priced at two taels of silver! And this so-called cold dish was merely a plate of ordinary smashed cucumber.

Luo Shun cried bitterly in his heart; two taels of silver outside could buy a cartload of cucumbers! He couldn't help looking further down; a stir-fry actually cost over ten taels of silver, and as for those meat dishes, the prices were even more staggering.

Luo Shun couldn't help swallowing hard, thinking secretly, "What to do? Such expensive dishes, how would I dare order!"

After hesitating a moment, he still decided to return the menu to Qianqian, saying somewhat embarrassedly, "Eldest Brother Ming'an, you order instead; I'm not picky, I can eat anything."

Seeing this, Qianqian smiled faintly, as if she had long anticipated Luo Shun's reaction.

She took the menu, without even looking, directly handed it to the waiter at the side, and casually instructed, "Bring a few of your shop's best-selling dishes, mix meat and vegetables, you arrange it."

Hearing this, the waiter was overjoyed. He liked this kind of guest who spent money freely and wasn't picky the most.

At once, the waiter promised solemnly, "You two rest assured, I will certainly arrange everything perfectly for you two!"

Finished speaking, he poured water for the two attentively while continuing, "You two wait a moment, I'll go arrange it right now, guaranteed to satisfy you two!"

After pouring the water, the waiter took the menu and left happily, turning around. Before leaving, he didn't forget to thoughtfully close the door gently, as if afraid of disturbing these two honored guests.

The curiosity in Luo Shun's heart was like a raging fire, impossible to suppress. His eyes were like the brightest stars in the night sky, staring tightly at Qianqian, as if wanting to see through her exterior to the secrets deep in her heart.

Qianqian seemed to feel Luo Shun's burning gaze; she hesitated slightly, but finally decided to speak. However, her words seemed blocked by something, appearing somewhat halting.

"Brother Luo, I don't want to deceive you, but some things I truly cannot speak of." Qianqian's voice was gentle yet firm, "My family is actually quite wealthy, and I also know some martial arts. I came here only to temper myself, to experience a different life."

Finished speaking these words, Qianqian said nothing more, as if she felt it was explanation enough. And Luo Shun pondered her words secretly in his heart.

Luo Shun hurriedly said aloud, "Eldest Brother Ming'an, I believe you! After this month of getting along, I know deeply you are a good man, we are good brothers! Your secret, I will definitely keep for you."

However, although Luo Shun said this with his mouth, his heart had long been like an unbridled wild horse, galloping wildly. He couldn't help imagining a grand drama: Eldest Brother Ming'an might be some Prince's or General's son, possessing inexhaustible wealth. But because a title needed inheriting, his father specially had him hide his name and sent him to the army to train, to cultivate his ability and character.

Thinking this, Luo Shun suddenly felt he was simply too amazing! To so easily climb such a thick thigh. His determination to keep this secret grew even firmer, as if this secret had already become a special bond between him and Ming'an.

So Luo Shun very wisely chose not to pursue the questioning further; he cleverly changed the topic, and the conversation between the two became exceptionally lively, as if they had endless things to say. Just as they were chatting heatedly, the waiter brought dishes over.

The waiter not only served dishes with practiced movements, but also enthusiastically introduced each dish's name. For Luo Shun this was a completely new experience; he couldn't help being attracted by such meticulous service, completely immersed in it.

Qianqian saw Luo Shun enjoying himself so much and didn't disturb him, only occasionally picking up a piece of food for him. Luo Shun ate with relish, his eyes narrowing into a slit, sighing secretly in his heart: "As expected, expensive has its reasons!" Compared to this, the Army's food is simply dog shit.
