That being said, Guan Song would never have thought that he would meet Chi Lian at the wonton stand the next day.

At that time, Chi Lian was holding a bowl of wontons, saw Guan Song at a glance, and greeted him enthusiastically across the street: "Scholar, come here!"

With such a loud roar, Guan Song quickly glanced at the street, and found that most people were looking over, quickly lowered his head, and sat beside Chi Lian as if running away: "Hush your voice."

Chi Lian smiled, asked the boss for another bowl of wontons, turned her head to look at her and said, "Scholar, why didn't I see you going to get a portrait today?"

Guan Song doesn't come to this wonton stall very often, and he sits here a little at a loss: "I'm going to study today...well, I'll go first."

Chi Lian shook her hand and said, "Don't worry, I've already ordered a bowl of wontons for you, and I'm not in a hurry to leave before I finish eating."

As soon as Guan Song heard about the meal, he couldn't keep it anymore: "The girl paid the money, how can I be greedy for cheap. No, no, I'll go first."

Chi Lian hurriedly stopped Guan Song: "Oh, I will get angry if you do this again. There is no reason to take back the money spent. You can finish this bowl of wontons first."

Saying so, the boss brought up the wontons, and placed them in front of Guan Song under Chi Lian's signal.

Chi Lian nodded her chin at Guan Song: "What do you think?"

Guan Song couldn't, he never knew how to deal with women, especially women like Chi Lian.Guan Song sighed, quickly picked up the bowl, ate up the wontons, and put the bowl on the table.

Chi Lian looked at it and smiled: "Do I know how to eat people? Why are you in such a hurry?"

Guan Song muttered: "No, no..." Apart from this, he didn't know what to say.

Fortunately, Chi Lian didn't care about it any more. Seeing that Guan Song had finished eating, she got up and left: "Don't make things difficult for you little scholar, let's go. I have something to do, so I'll go first."

As Chi Lian walked away, another person approached Guan Song.Guan Song didn't recognize that person, so he flinched.

The visitor was enthusiastic: "How do you know Miss Chi Lian?"

Guan Song was a little stunned, and responded one after another: "What?"

The man stared at the direction where Chi Lian was leaving: "Miss Chi Lian, you don't know the top card of Wanhualou, do you?"

Guan Song really didn't know, and shook his head blankly upon hearing this.

The man looked at Guan Song suspiciously: "Why don't you even know this, are you stupid when you study?"

Guan Song smiled awkwardly: "If I want to see Miss Chi Lian..."

The man sighed: "Don't even think about it, don't talk about seeing Miss Chi Lian, at least 50 taels of silver for one night, and ordinary people, Miss Chi Lian doesn't entertain, she only entertains..." The man pointed Pointing to the top of his head, "Did you know?"

Guan Song probably understood what the man meant, he touched his sleeve, which only had a few copper coins, and smiled bitterly: "I understand."

For the first time, he felt that he was not even worthy of seeing a girl.

Either way.

Guan Song smiled at the man, said "Thank you", and got up to leave.

On the second night, Guan Song brought his pen and ink to the market again.Although he had collected enough travel expenses, the previous brush broke and it was hard to avoid writing, so he wanted to save money for a new one.

Today, he deliberately bypassed the venue he chose last night.When he passed by, he saw the big man from yesterday staying there, nodding and bowing his head to fawn on a kid who was younger than him and dressed as a young master.

Guan Song paused, straightened his back and left.

Today came early, Guan Song stood in a good position, someone asked him to write a few words, and gave him ten copper coins.Guan Song put away the copper coins, there are more than a dozen copper coins short of buying a new writing brush, he probably needs to come out for several days.

"Scholar? It's you again?"

Guan Song heard a familiar woman's voice and quickly raised his head, but saw a man standing next to Chi Lian, a man he didn't know.The man was dressed richly, and kept looking at Chi Lian with his eyes, and the eyes that occasionally looked at Guan Song were also extremely disgusting.

Guan Song shrank his neck and smiled awkwardly: "It's a girl, what a coincidence today."

The man next to Chi Lian glanced at Guan Song, stopped Guan Song's gaze indiscriminately, and said to Chi Lian, "I've got you all night, not for you to strike up a conversation with others."

Chi Lianjiao smiled and said, "Of course I know. It's just that I saw an acquaintance, so I just need to say a few more words, let's go."

For some reason, Guan Song's heart suddenly became empty.He lowered his head, fiddling with his calligraphy and painting. When he looked up again, Chi Lian and the man in front of him had long since disappeared.

She is gone.

Guan Song sighed indistinctly.

Guan Song absent-mindedly sold a few more paintings, and gradually, there were no people in the market, so Guan Song also packed up his things and prepared to go home.

As soon as he reached the market entrance, Guan Song saw Chi Lian again.However, Chi Lian's face was flushed, and she walked staggeringly, as if she was about to fall at any moment.Chi Lian also saw Guan Song, waved her hand and called Guan Song to come forward: "Scholar..."

Guan Song was stunned for a moment, and found that Chi Lian was drunk and hurried up, but he didn't dare to touch Chi Lian lightly, and just stood beside him anxiously: "How can I help the girl?"

Chi Lian paused for a moment, then suddenly laughed: "I forgot, you are stupid in reading." As she spoke, Chi Lian shook again, "Can you help me and send me back to Wanhualou?"

Guan Song hesitated for a while, and agreed with a firm heart: "Okay, I will help the girl to walk slowly." Then, Guan Song stretched out an arm and sent it to Chi Lian.

Chi Lian smiled and climbed onto Guan Song's arm: "Then thank you scholar."

Guan Songzhi felt an itchy arm, and Chi Lian's hand was really cold.He wanted to say something, but the words that came out became: "Girls should also pay attention to their bodies."

Chi Lian stroked her hair, and suddenly sighed: "I'm about to leave Wanhualou."

Guan Song was stunned for a moment: "Leaving Wanhualou?"

Chi Lian nodded absent-mindedly: "I have stayed in the Wanhua Building since I was a child to receive guests. But at that time, I was just a sweeping girl in the lobby. The floor was not cleaned, the wine was spilled, and the girl even lost it in the lobby. Things like hairpins are all my fault."

Chi Lian looked back at Guan Song: "At that time, I thought, when I get rich, I must escape from that ghostly place. So I tried my best to climb up, and finally climbed to the top position."

"I have saved money for many, many years, and I have given everything I have. In fact, I just want to be free... Scholar, to be honest, I am quite envious of you."

Guan Song looked into Chi Lian's eyes, and suddenly felt that these eyes were too clear, maybe Chi Lian was not drunk?

After a long while, Chi Lian shook her head: "Forget it, the scholar has forgotten everything I said. After all, it has nothing to do with you, I'm just drunk."

Guan Song swallowed his saliva, he felt that he should say something, if he didn't say it, he would definitely miss something.Guan Song didn't hesitate this time: "Girl, actually, I don't live better than you."

Chi Lian smiled: "Why, are we comparing each other?"

Guan Song smiled: "It's okay... I lost my father when I was young, and a few years ago, my mother also passed away due to illness..."

Said, Guan Song carefully glanced at Chi Lian.He thought he would see sympathy in Chi Lian's eyes, but Chi Lian's eyes were calm, she just looked at him and said, "It's over?"

Guan Song smiled: "I also sold the chicken that has been with me for many years, and this is how I can make up enough for the exam. I will take the imperial exam this year."

Chi Lian also laughed together and said: "Then I wish you the title of the gold list first."

Guan Song touched his neck: "Thank you..." Suddenly, he looked at Chi Lian, "It's also fortunate that you didn't pity me, so I can continue talking."

Chi Lian said clearly: "It turns out that you, like me, hate other people looking at you with pitiful eyes." She looked away suddenly, and said as if sighing, "In the past, the kitchen aunt always looked at me with that kind of eyes. Every time I cook, I will secretly leave it for me to eat, but I was beaten half to death by the thugs of Wanhualou, and thrown outside the door."

"When I went to find her two days later, I only saw her body huddled in a rotten mat in the corner, ready to be dragged to a mass grave to find a place to bury. Speaking of which, you are much better than me, when I was young I have never seen my parents..."

Chi Lian's words were confused, Guan Song listened patiently, and answered twice from time to time, so that Chi Lian knew that he was listening.

After Chi Lian finished speaking, Guan Song realized that this woman's life had been unsatisfactory all along.Guan Song suddenly feels sorry for Chi Lian, but he is stupid and doesn't know what to say, for fear of making Chi Lian angry.

While Guan Song was hesitating, the two walked to Wanhualou.The choking smell of smoke powder came over my face, several women came out of the room, and warmly greeted Guan Song: "My lord, come in and have a seat?"

Guan Song hurriedly shook his head: "I'm here to see Chi Lian off."

After hearing this, the girls glanced at Chi Lian in disgust, then turned and left.

Guan Song was a little angry, and when he was about to say something, Chi Lian beside him shook his head and said "it's okay".

After finishing speaking, Chi Lian straightened her back, thanked Guan Song charmingly, turned her head and walked gracefully into Wanhualou.

The girls watched Chi Lian go away, completely changed into a look of disdain, and whispered unknowingly after she left.

Guan Song was a little annoyed, and walked a few steps to those girls: "Girls, there is a saying in the ancients that a gentleman should not speak behind his back. Although a girl comes from a humble background, she must respect the etiquette of Confucius and Mencius!..."

The girls in Wanhualou were startled, and fled in all directions in a panic, calling out Wanhualou's thugs a few times.The thug aggressively followed the girl's order, yelling "Dengtuzi" angrily, and rushed towards Guan Song.

In an instant, Guan Song was surrounded by a group of big men and beat him up.

Countless sticks fell on Guan Song, Guan Song clenched his teeth so as not to let himself scream.At the last moment of falling into a coma, Guan Song saw Chi Lian push away the crowd and run towards him in a trance.

Oops, I'm bothering the girl.
