Lose My Heart to the Lovely Kitten Princess - Chapter 262
Chapter 262 Visiting the Brothel Street
Cheng Xiaoxiao remembered that she felt dizzy, and the world spun around her. Did she lose consciousness after that?
No. She recalled that she seemed to have fallen down, and then Chu Yunshen caught her.
Yes, this was the correct version.
What happened after he caught her?
When she woke up, she was in Mu Bai’s room. Chu Yunshen was hugging her while Mu Bai was talking about the Datura powder.
Other than that, she couldn’t remember anything no matter how hard she tried to recall.
It seemed that she had lost her memory.
Cheng Xiaoxiao sat on the wall and looked at the crescent moon hanging high in the air. She couldn’t help but sigh.
“Wait, what am I doing?”
“Why am I sitting here and thinking about life? I was planning to have a meal and take a walk in the brothel street, wasn’t I? Why am I sitting here trying to remember things? There are no important things to remember anyway.”
The casual Cheng Xiaoxiao jumped out of the courtyard and quickly disappeared into the small path outside the courtyard.
If someone noticed Chu Yunshen’s courtyard at this time, they would definitely see the Persian cat, whose fur was shining with silver light under the moonlight, sitting on the wall and looking up at the moon.
Then, the cat quietly walked on the wall before jumping down into the night and keeping herself hidden.
Cheng Xiaoxiao, who sneaked into the alley, walked silently to the end of the alley and soon came to the wall that was a disguise for her.
“Here you are!”
Fortunately, the smart Cheng Xiaoxiao found this shortcut on the first day.
Otherwise, if she went around Pink Alley, Chu Yunshen would probably have brought his men to bring her back before she reached the food street.
“Haha! Yes! Delicious food, here I come!”
Cheng Xiaoxiao ran and was about to rush up to climb the wall when she stopped halfway.
Fortunately, she managed to break in time thanks to the rough bluestone road. Her body finally slowed down and stopped less than a meter away from the wall.
It was not because Cheng Xiaoxiao was afraid. How could an “experienced” person like her worry about climbing the wall? Besides, she just came out of the wall. She just felt that it was not appropriate for her to go to the brothel street now.
How could a Persian cat go to a brothel?
Even if she slipped in, they would kick her out when they saw her…
Also, she wanted to have a feast first. She was in the cat form, and she couldn’t eat salty food. Moreover, she couldn’t enter those stores.
Most importantly, she, Cheng Xiaoxiao, could be considered a celebrity now.
Hu people had seen her perform during the variety show. Now that she was famous, she couldn’t let others see her easily.
In fact, this was not what Cheng Xiaoxiao meant. She felt that she was too eye-catching, that’s all.
No matter what, she had sneaked out, so she couldn’t hang around outside so openly.
Moreover, Chu Yunshen and the others were at a critical moment. If she were to be discovered by people with ill intentions when she went out, she might even bring trouble to Chu Yunshen.
Although she liked to make decisions on her own, it was when she made decisions for herself. She would only do so if she didn’t bring trouble to others or affect others.
If Chu Yunshen’s plan was ruined because of her, Cheng Xiaoxiao would probably die of guilt.
So it was better to forget it. She decided to transform into the human form before going out. It would not take much time anyway.
More importantly, she could use the spiritual energy. Only when she used them would it be replaced with new spiritual energy.
Perhaps, she might receive a soul a few levels higher than Qin’s level next time!
The current Cheng Xiaoxiao was like a petty scrooge who couldn’t push herself to use the little bit of spiritual energy that was stored in the jade pendant. She wished that she could split the spiritual energy into several portions, and each time she transformed, it would last for a long time.
She should use the best resources in the most important area. Thus, she would always calculate the best opportunity before transforming.
Cheng Xiaoxiao wouldn’t have been willing to use the spiritual energy at all if it weren’t for the fact that Chu Yunshen had been in danger a few times before.
It was tiring to collect ghosts’ souls. She had to go out to search for ghosts. Every time, she either had to persuade those ghosts like a therapist or fight and wait for the ghosts to attack her.
Although Cheng Xiaoxiao did not need to do any fighting, it would still consume her strength. Every time she collected ghosts’ souls, she would be tired and fall asleep for a long time. This was also the reason why she was constantly hungry and sleepy.
Cheng Xiaoxiao, who was sighing about her hard life, transformed into a lady in a blue dress after the blue light passed. She did not waste any more time and quickly climbed up the wall and walked out of the alley.
Next, it was show time! She had arrived!
“I am coming!”
Cheng Xiaoxiao faced the street and opened her arms wide, revealing an exaggerated smile.
However, the street in front of Cheng Xiaoxiao was no longer as lively as it was in the daytime. Now, it was empty, quiet, and deserted.
The big banyan tree at the end of the street was still eye-catching, and the streets on both sides of the banyan tree were brightly lit, so much so that the light illuminated the big banyan tree.
Unexpectedly, the main street that was bustling during the day became completely different at night.
On the other hand, the brothel street and the food street were indeed bustling with noise. Just listening to the sound intrigued her and made her very interesting.
Cheng Xiaoxiao quickly walked forward. She deliberately walked very fast and soon left the quiet street behind her.
When she reached the big banyan tree where they had performed the other day, she heard the laughter of the woman on the left of the brothel street, as well as the music of the musical instruments.
Of course, what attracted Cheng Xiaoxiao more was naturally the food street that she had been eagerly wanting to visit for several days. The fragrance of the food was bearable during the day, but now, the aroma spread in the air freely and enchanted the sense of smell of every passer-by.
She believed that everyone who smelled the fragrance would be hungry and walk toward the smell, involuntarily approaching the smell.
She did not have to deliberately try to search for the restaurant. The aroma would take Cheng Xiaoxiao to the place she wanted to go.
But beautiful women and delicious food were not in the same place. Standing in front of the big banyan tree, Cheng Xiaoxiao looked at the brothel street on the left and then at the delicious food street on the right. She fell into a dilemma for a moment.
Her first reaction was to choose delicious food, but if she did so, she would probably have to go back after eating, and she had no time to watch the performance in the brothel street.
She couldn’t stay outside for too long.
Chu Yunshen might discover her disappearance, and he would be worried sick. More importantly, he would reprimand and punish her again.
But the performance at the brothel street…
The women were gorgeous, but they were not to the point where she felt that they were scrumptious.
Argh, it was so hard to choose! Why couldn’t she split herself into two?
She was fortunate that she could sneak out and visit the place in her human form this time. She didn’t know when the next chance would be.
Therefore, she wanted to choose both, and it was so hard to cross out either of them.
Cheng Xiaoxiao was still hesitating and was in a dilemma, but the Hu people, who were passing by, reminded her.
“Let’s go and drink Hibiscus Wine at Tipsy Dame! The combination of the wine and the signature beer-braised chicken is the best in the world!”
“Let’s go, let’s go. You’re making me drool. Their harlots are gorgeous too! Every time I go there, those pretty ladies will hook away half of my soul.”
Beer-braised chicken?
It sounded quite familiar, but she didn’t know what kind of dish it was.
Cheng Xiaoxiao pretended to be looking in another direction, but in fact, she was peeking at the two men who were still discussing.
If she guessed correctly, the place these two men were talking about should be a harlot bar on the brothel street. However, she didn’t understand why they could drink and eat in the brothel.
She had never been to brothels or joyhouses, so she was not clear about the structure and layout of these places or their condition of consumption.
Thanks to the two men who were talking loudly, Cheng Xiaoxiao learned that she could order dishes and drinks at the brothel. Otherwise, she would only know when she personally went there.
Not only that, but the name of their dishes also sounded more delicious than those sold in the restaurants.
It was just that the price was a bit expensive, and ordinary people couldn’t afford the bill.
Cheng Xiaoxiao had a lot of silver in her pouch. Chu Hongyi prepared the silver for her when she entered the palace with him a long time ago.
She agreed with what Chu Hongyi had said. One could lack anything except money.
If Cheng Xiaoxiao went out in a hurry or had a sudden impulse to transform, the money could come in handy.
Chu Hongyi really had foresight.
This time, Cheng Xiaoxiao had the sudden impulse to visit the brothel street. Thankfully, she kept the money pouch on the waist area of Fairy Dress, or she couldn’t do anything even if she came out of the courtyard.
Cheng Xiaoxiao was not so bold as to want to have fun in a brothel without any money in her pocket.
If she tried to have a free meal, the boss might catch her and force her to pay by selling her body.
Oh goodness, Cheng Xiaoxiao didn’t even dare to think that such a terrible thing would happen to her.
Cheng Xiaoxiao used all her strength to suppress the strange thoughts in her mind and tilted her head to think about the current situation.
Now that she had transformed and had the money, she decided to go directly to the brothel street!
It was a double enjoyment to be able to eat and enjoy the performance!
She wanted to see if the women were attractive or if the food was really delicious. It would be best if she could kill two birds with one stone. Otherwise, the money and time she spent would be worthless.
However, the merchants were unscrupulous to come out with such a brilliant business idea to have all the services under one roof.
The men who were talking about Hibiscus Wine had already walked in the direction of the brothel street. Cheng Xiaoxiao was following them not far behind.
Cheng Xiaoxiao didn’t want to pick a brothel by herself. It would be very disappointing if she picked the one with bad reviews.
It was best to just follow these men who seemed to know the way.
She originally wanted to follow them all the way to the designated brothel, but just as she walked to the brothel street, she was attracted by the scenery in front of her.
The brothel street was completely different from the empty street in the day!
Cheng Xiaoxiao was shocked and mesmerized by the scenery in front of her. She wanted to be a little more reserved, but at this moment, she couldn’t help herself and looked like a country bumpkin on her first visit to the city as she gasped in awe.
Not only she but anyone who had never been to the brothel street and had truly experienced it would also be unable to remain calm.
In front of her, in the long alley under the night sky, rows of high eaves and low walls quietly hid in the night sky. The stone road reflected the moonlight and shone with a silver light as it extended into the distance.
Not only that, but the light net above her head had also been lit up at some point in time. Those small lanterns emitted faint red light in the night sky, and when the wind blew, they would constantly flicker.
These lanterns were originally decorative lamps, and they did not have any substantial lighting effects at all. However, when they were placed together, the entire street seemed to be covered in a hazy layer of faint red.
