Chapter 365: Ye Han

Jiang Yunchu nodded, "Either sell them outright, or send them to be military prostitutes—you seven decide for yourselves."

"By the way, tell the people behind you, I, Kang Yun, am not of the Zhuang Clan and am not that tolerant; since you dared to send them, the sale contracts are in my hands, so I dare to kill them."

"Don't believe me?"

"Then let them keep coming to try!"

After she finished speaking, she turned her gaze to Zhuang Wei; the aura from before still lingered, and Zhuang Wei's heart gave a jolt—this was the first time he had encountered her methods, and also the first time he truly understood this person.

Her heart is all or nothing—black or white; the soft side she shows only to those she approves of.

Correspondingly, her methods are directed at her enemies.

"I'll have someone take them away," Zhuang Wei said; only after Jiang Yunchu nodded did he have them taken away.

As those seven left, their steps were unsteady, each as if trapped in a nightmare.

Once they leave, their fate will not be good.

But staying? They lack that courage.

"I'm not a god; I can't see through everyone. If any of you harbor other thoughts, I don't know, and I won't hold it against you."

"In the future, those who are disloyal will naturally learn what fate awaits them."

"I'm here; I won't say more. We'll see how things go from now on."

Everyone has their own thoughts, but it all comes down to their final choice.

"Let me tell you what you'll be doing from now on—I'll open an experience hall. What will we experience?"

"Skin care."

"These may be unfamiliar to you, but that's not important; I'll teach you step by step. I don't mind if you're slow—just keep practicing."

At this moment her voice had returned to calm, free of the earlier killing intent, allowing the over ninety girls to gradually relax.

"This is a mask, a rose mask—it can brighten the skin, fade melanin, and moisturize our skin."

She waved her hand; Bai Zhi took a porcelain box—simple white porcelain, no patterns. When the box opened, a fragrance drifted out, and the girls' eyes lit up.

"Bai Zhi, lie down," Jiang Yunchu said, looking at Bai Zhi.

Bai Zhi blinked, then obediently lay down.

"Go fetch warm water," Jiang Yunchu said, producing a small wooden tub and pointing at a girl.

That girl immediately took the order and hurried out.

After she returned, Jiang Yunchu sat on a stool, had Bai Zhi lie on a small bed, and told the girls, "Watch closely—I'm starting. You need to learn quickly, remember the steps and acupoints; those who learn fast will see their monthly pay rise accordingly."

Hearing that it was tied to pay, everyone focused even more.

"First, wash the face with warm water… then do a deep clean with our Lustrous Jade Soap…"

Her voice was gentle, she deliberately slowed her speech, and spoke loudly so all the girls could hear clearly.

Step by step, she proceeded until the mask was applied, then began introducing the acupoints, starting with those on the head.

"The mask is on; now we'll do a head massage to relieve fatigue and reduce pressure. Note the acupoints—here, here, here, and here." She pointed them out one by one on Bai Zhi's hair.

Let those girls see, then slowly memorize.

"The mask stays on for fifteen minutes; when time's up, we peel it off, starting from the chin." She said while demonstrating.

Then her hands began to rub quickly: "Now we'll do a facial massage—first warm our hands by rubbing, then watch: lift here, massage here, chin…"

"Then slowly move to the eye area, then the forehead."

With each movement she explained it to them.

"Afterward, we slowly wash off the excess essence, then this is our specially produced rose dew, which we apply slowly to the face."

"That's the full process of our facial care."

After she finished, she had Bai Zhi rise and let the girls see the result.

"It's amazing—really whitened, and the skin looks fresh and dewy."

"Not only that—look at the eye area; before it was slightly bluish, now you can't see it at all."

"And this area—before it was slightly sagging, now it's lifted up."

This is amazing too—all the girls' eyes lit up; if they learn it, could they later do it for others?

Moreover, this service is clearly for women, so they no longer need to worry about being sold to a brothel.

Only now did they fully believe Jiang Yunchu's words and finally set their minds at ease.

"Just now everyone saw that—who wants to try?"

She raised her brows; she didn't mind if they didn't learn it in one go, but at least they needed the courage to try.

At that moment, seven girls raised their hands; Jiang Yunchu noted their appearance, then pointed to one who looked steady: "You go first—lie down."

She had that steady person do it, while another girl lay down.

That girl pointed at herself in disbelief: "Me?"

Jiang Yunchu smiled; the girl was young, a bit innocent. "Otherwise? Are you preparing to let clients come directly?"

"Let's begin."

Watching the two positions, the steady girl, although slow, performed basically all steps correctly, only needing a few corrections to the acupoints, until the pressure was right and the technique proper.

"Not bad—you learned quickly. What's your name?" Jiang Yunchu looked at her appreciatively.

That girl instead knelt on the ground: "Host, I was sold by my family; I don't want my old surname or given name. Please, Host, bestow me a name."

Her drunkard father sold her mother and then her; she doesn't want that surname—it makes her nauseous.

The Host is capable; she doesn't want to marry, doesn't believe in love, just wants to follow the Host for life—her loyalty is there, she only hopes the Host can see it.

Jiang Yunchu stared at her deeply, then nodded: "If so, from now on you shall be called Ye Han."

"Ye Han, like a sunflower—turning toward the sun, a person naturally becomes clear‑minded."

The girl hurriedly kowtowed: "I, the humble Ye Han, greet the Host."

Jiang Yunchu smiled and said, "Get up quickly, go stand over there."

"Yes."

Ye Han's face was all smiles, she obediently stood to the side.

At this time, Jiang Yunchu called another person, the one who had just raised his hand.

That young lady was not old; she looked about the same age as Kang Ziwei, but her hands and feet were nimble, she did everything efficiently, and even the accuracy of her movements surprised Jiang Yunchu. After looking once, she had found all the acupoints correctly, only the strength was a bit off; Jiang Yunchu gave her a few pointers, and she immediately understood.
