Yumenglou

I only deserve to be loved by the adults here, and I dare not have any extravagant hopes. Chiyo replied. Xiao Sakai beside him laughed softly, and that expression made Chiyo frown.

After the banquet, Xiao Sakai asked Chiyo to stay and accompany him to drink elsewhere.Seeing that it was still early at the end, Chiyo agreed.Then the two of them took a sedan chair and came to a nearby tavern, and came to a small box.

Seeing a dazzling and beautiful geisha and an adult from Kyoto suddenly enter the store, the owner of the hotel asked Xiao Sakai if he needed anything.But Xiao Sakai asked the waiters to leave after only one table of food and drink, leaving only Chiyo to accompany the wine.

"Thank you for taking care of me today, I wonder if all the adults are satisfied?" Chiyo asked Xiao Sakai while pouring wine.

"You performed quite well today, you are such a peerless beauty." Xiao Sakai looked at Chiyo's face while drinking, and then put an arm around her waist.

"Why did you pick me up and call me a beauty? Didn't you leave it behind and go back to Kyoto after seeing it for three days? What a fickle man~" Chiyo said with a smile, leaning on Xiao Sakai's body.

"Huh? So you're a regular customer." Xiao Sakai gestured to lift Chiyo's chin to kiss her.Chiyo opened that hand with a smile, and sat on Xiao Sakai's body.

Xiao Sakai reached out and slowly stroked Chiyo's neck, looked at her infinitely charming and beautiful face, and suddenly said: "Actually, I'm thinking about something. I'm going to take you back as a concubine, what do you want?"

"What nonsense! You already have two concubines, why do you want to marry again?" Chiyo smiled and climbed up the hand, but was shocked in her heart.This kind of thing really happens, this is the first time I have encountered it.

"Because I like you!" Xiao Sakai touched Chiyo's cheek, "Besides, you still care about this matter? If you can go to Kyoto to be my concubine, then there is no point in staying in Rokujo Castle, right?"

"I'm sorry, but it really can't be like this." Chiyo said, feeling that Xiao Sakai's hand on her face tensed up, "It's Yumenglou's people, so naturally I can't just leave." How could it be just Going away like this, leaving Qianhui alone, I never thought about it.

"Naturally, since you want to be my person, I will pay you all of your boss's money." Xiao Sakai lowered his head to kiss Chiyo's chin, but he heard her say in a cold tone: "That's not this question."

"What's the problem?" Xiao Sakai stared at Chiyo's face, but the latter had a completely expressionless expression on his face, "What do you want to do by staying here? What's the point of being able to come to Kyoto to be my Xiao Sakai's concubine?" Isn't it good? Don't you count on this kind of result for the whole life of a woman!" Xiao Sakai asked forcefully, twisting Chiyo's chin to face himself, suppressing anger in a calm tone.

"That's true, there's nothing wrong with it, but the way of living you mentioned has never been within the scope of Xin Weiwo's consideration." Chiyo replied unusually calmly, "Since it has never been considered, then I won't think about it. I'm sorry, the only thing I can do for you, my lord, is to accompany you in Liujo City—" Before he could finish speaking, Chiyo's shoulder was knocked down and pressed to the ground in the next second.

Chiyo looked at the angry Xiao Sakai in a trance and said fiercely: "Sure enough, a woman like you is different from those women from a good family. You are only worthy of selling your body for a living in this life. Compared with marrying me as a concubine, you In fact, you want to be an oiran, right? All you want is to satisfy your desires, other than that, your life is worth so little!"

"That's what you hoped for from me at the beginning, right? What are you dissatisfied with, and what right do you have to criticize me?" Chiyo said, staring straight at Xiao Sakai's face. "My life is not up to you to judge!"

"It's so despicable—"

"That's enough! Don't talk about it. What do you know!" Qiandai's heart suddenly burst into anger, and the moment Qianhui's face flashed in his mind, there was an undercurrent of sadness in his heart.

"...If that's the case, since you're here, just do what you're good at." Xiao Sakai said as he roughly tore off Chiyo's belt.There was a moment of anger that made Chiyo feel the urge to slap this man, but he was too confused and could only sigh deeply.What is the meaning of my life, that is not even my consideration.I'm just desperately trying to keep everything I hold dear.Is there anything wrong with such a humble begging!

It was already dusk when I came out of the tavern.Chiyo felt that her body was so sore that she was about to fall apart, and her eyelids were heavy, she just wanted to go back quickly, but Xiao Sakai didn't send a car to take her, so she had to go back by herself.Later, if Gezi sees me walking back in such a despondent way, and hears about my performance today, maybe he will say something about me, and he will definitely call me half-baked again.That person probably won't come back.Thinking about Gezi's words, when I came out today, I vaguely remembered her saying: "Since I'm doing this business, what can I do, it's just a few more days of happy life! You should also think about yourself more, don't say In the store, even if you go out by yourself, you can still get a price!" "Ah, then I'm doing this for the store, right? "Since you want to be an oiran, how can you abandon the store?" Chiyo imagined herself retorting like this, and couldn't help but smile wryly.

Under the golden sunset, the red gold-painted kimono and the gorgeous golden hair accessories look more and more golden, making passers-by look back at Chiyo repeatedly. "It's so beautiful!" A little girl passing by couldn't help staring at Chiyo and exclaimed in admiration, but was quickly dragged away by the serious-looking mother next to her.The stone road is dyed with a beautiful golden layer by the setting sun, and the Liutiao city reflected by the slanting light looks warm and quiet.There were a few barking dogs in the alley, and the sound of cutting vegetables and boiling water could be heard from the side of the road. The air was filled with the aroma of food and a faint fragrance of flowers. In front of the scarlet gate.so beautiful.Chiyo couldn't help sighing, a warm feeling welled up in her heart.

It's really nostalgic.Chiyo couldn't help but think.Four years ago, it was also such a beautiful evening.No, it was much colder then.Qianhui and I came to Liujo Castle for the first time...

At that time, I had forgotten how long I had been walking, and when I was about to decide to sleep in the mountains, this city finally appeared before my eyes.Chiyo supported Qianhui, who had injured her foot, and walked carefully to avoid attracting attention, while looking around for a place to spend the night.Almost two days without eating, Chiyo refused to let Qianhui stop on the mountain road, because the night on the mountain was too cold, and she would definitely freeze to death if she spent the night in the wild.At this time, the two people who were already very weak supported each other and walked slowly on the quiet and empty street where people gradually dispersed.

"Stop, stop, Chiyo," Qianhui said tremblingly, her voice seemed so ethereal, "I can't move anymore."

Chiyo stopped.I am also weak and tired.At this moment, she felt Qianhui hugging her body tightly, with her back facing the setting sun, "It's so warm." Qianhui said softly.

"Well. It doesn't matter if you stand for a while." Chiyo said.The more my sister clings to her body, which is so thin and weak that it seems that she will fall to the ground in a second, the more she will not be able to fall down.I brought you here, so no matter what happens, I will be by your side.Looking at the dazzling beautiful sunset in front of her eyes and the psychedelic glow in the distance, Chiyo seems to gain strength from the warmth and color, and a sense of tranquility and gentleness emerges spontaneously.She gradually closed her eyes.I just felt the light and heat of the setting sun with my whole body, and the gentle beating of my sister's heart.

However, Chiyo's chest gradually felt a moist coolness.

"What's wrong?" Chiyo asked softly.

Qian Hui buried her head deeply, "I'm thinking, how is Mom doing now?"

Chiyo's heart sank.The deep pain that cannot be forgotten has since emerged from the memory.But she has to be patient.Qiandai gently raised Qianhui's face, looked at her tearful eyes with heartache, and said softly and clearly: "Qianhui, mother is dead."

Ah, such a beautiful pair of eyes, why are they crying so much like now?When did those eyes that were as clear as a small lake lose their brilliance, leaving only sadness like a deep well?Looking at Chie who shook her shoulders like a dead leaf, Chiyo felt as uncomfortable as an autumn leaf withering in the wind.She tried her best to hold back her tears, stretched out her trembling hands, and gently wiped away the tears from her younger sister's face.

"Qianhui, don't cry like this anymore, you can see that my sister is not crying." Chiyo pointed to herself, trying to squeeze out a smile, "Because Chiyo is accompanied by Qianhui, so no matter what, I won't cry! For Qianhui , no matter what, I will try my best to live on!"

Qianhui raised her drooping tearful eyes, facing Chidai's gentle and sad beautiful eyes, her sister's eyes were as bright as stars under the sun.Just looking at it like this, Qianhui couldn't say anything, she couldn't make any sound due to her blocked breath and painful heart, only tears shed silently without words.Chiyo hugged her silently.

"Qianhui, always, stay together."

"...Hmm" Qian Hui whimpered.

"Then pull the hook and say that we will always be together and work hard to live, huh?" Chiyo stretched out her little finger and looked at Qianhui with a smile.Qianhui stretched out her little hand, which was frozen cold, and hooked Chiyo's finger.A broken smile quietly surfaced on her face, looking so warm under the reflection of the dusk.

what.
