94 Plunder

As soon as Gu Yanfei finished speaking, the bamboo music on the stage suddenly changed from fierce to gentle. The atmosphere and rhythm of the music seemed to indicate something.

Murong Yong stopped halfway up the stairs. His eyebrows raised as he looked at the stage again with a smile.

In the next moment, an actress in an emerald green dress appeared gracefully. Her head was full of pearls, and she was bright and lively. Every move she made exuded a bright temperament.

Her beautiful appearance and figure attracted praise from the entire hall.

This woman was the singer of the martial arts in the show. Because the heir of the Marquis Mansion saved the damsel in distress, she fell in love with him at first sight.

She danced with her sleeves reservedly on the stage and sang a young girl’s thoughts in a moving singing voice that was full of charm.

“To support this girl in green,” Chu Yi said as he pointed at the singer, who had just appeared on the stage.

From the corner of her eye, Gu Yanfei glanced at the girl, who was flying around like a butterfly on the stage. She asked curiously, “How?”

She tilted her head slightly and rested her chin on her right hand, her eyes flashing with interest.

“…” It was rare for Chu Yi to be at a loss for words. His expression was subtle, and for a moment, he almost saw her wagging her curious cat tail behind her.

He sighed faintly in his heart. He did not know if he should sigh at Gu Yanfei for not treating him like an outsider, or if this girl was really heartless.

Chu Yi deliberated over his words and said, “Murong Yong likes to listen to opera and music. He’s a frequent visitor to the various theaters and places of fireworks in the capital. Apart from the Murong residence, he also arranged a residence in his own name and often stays there.”

Taking into account that Gu Yanfei was an unmarried girl after all, Chu Yi did not say things like “providing for the actress” or “keeping a mistress”, but the meaning was already very clear.

With that, Chu Yi lowered his head to drink again, his long eyelashes fluttering slightly.

The usually calm young man revealed a rare hint of discomfort at this moment.

Gu Yanfei drank her wine casually and did not notice Chu Yi’s abnormality at all. The more she listened, the more she felt that Murong Yong was really unreliable.

In her previous life, Murong Yong did not break off the engagement because of Gu Yunzhen’s disfigurement. She thought that the Murong family should be an open and aboveboard family, and there was nothing wrong with Murong Yong’s character.

In addition, Gu Yunzhen never reported bad news.

Now that she thought about it, her understanding of Murong Yong in her previous life was still too superficial.

Now that she heard Chu Yi say this, she could not help but feel a little uneasy.

Gu Yanfei thought of Gu Yunzhen’s dim and thin luck again. She thought of Gu Yunzhen’s slightly haggard appearance after she got married in her previous life and could not come back to her senses for a long time.

At this moment, a thought clearly surfaced. Perhaps Gu Yunzhen and Murong Yong’s marriage in her previous life was not as good as outsiders thought…

She was probably prejudiced.

“Good!”

There was a sudden burst of excited cheers below, followed by thunderous applause.

Gu Yanfei lowered her eyes and looked in the direction of the stage downstairs.

The plot gradually reached its climax.

When the singer learned that the heir of the Marquis Mansion had a fiancée, she took the lotus fan that the heir had left behind and ran to the Marquis Mansion to look for the princess. She said that the heir of the Marquis Mansion did not like unnecessary and overelaborate customs and was only engaged with the princess out of responsibility. She said that the heir of the Marquis Mansion belonged to the martial arts world and begged the princess to fulfill her and her sweetheart’s wishes. She also returned the lotus fan that the princess had drawn on to its rightful owner…

The princess was so hurt that she fainted, causing the audience to sigh.

The show ended.

The few palace lights on the stage were extinguished. Curtains hung from above, and the bamboo sounds stopped abruptly.

The audience was still unsatisfied. At this moment, they finally found their voices and discussed the scene just now.

One moment, they said the actress was indeed worthy of her reputation. Another moment, they were saying that the flower girl and the actress in green were beautiful and each had their own merits. Another moment, they were commenting on the singers’ voices and figures…

Everyone chatted and drank until their ears were hot.

The atmosphere was in full swing.

A waiter happily knocked on the gong and drum below and shouted, “A guest has rewarded Miss He Yanxia with 100 taels of gold.”

He Yanxia was the actress in green’s stage name.

Immediately after, He Yanxia came out from backstage and bowed to everyone, thanking them in public.

Everyone was in an uproar.

After all, 100 taels of gold was 1,000 taels of silver!

A thunderous round of applause sounded below, rising and falling. The atmosphere in the opera house became even more heated.
