Night is the busiest time in Zuihualou. The women inside are all dressed up beautifully, living hopelessly while hoping that one day they will meet true love and redeem themselves.

Liu Yuan is a unique woman, she sees it more thoroughly than any other woman in this Zuihualou.

As the top card, she once had a beloved man, and she knew that the man loved her, and she knew that the man had the ability to redeem her, because that man was famous all over the world, but even so, he still loved her. Did not redeem her.

So she understood that the redemption of a woman like her was just a beautiful fantasy described in the storybook, and the reality that belonged to her was this unchangeable fate, which was doomed since her mother sold her into this brothel fate.

She will still smile at the guests who come, and she will still leave her most authentic smile to Wentian, but she will never dream again, the dream that she expected to go out.

She is more sober than anyone else, and she knows how painful it is to live soberly, so she gradually learns to deceive herself.

Ah, Wentian is here again today...

What kind of stories and surprises will he bring me?

Will... redeem me?

Perhaps she is the happiest who is indulging in this hopeless love?Then don't find out - that person won't take her out of the reality here.

Today's Wentian only called her alone, which is a bit strange, wouldn't he usually call out several women?Is there anything to say to her alone?Liu Yuan's face was a little red, rationally told her that looking forward too much might only lead to deeper disappointment, but emotionally told her that she had already experienced enough disappointment, why not enjoy this moment of joy.

She chose emotion and put on her best clothes.

Wentian seemed to be drunk, his eyes were cloudy, and he smiled when he saw her coming, she knew that it belonged to her alone, just like her.

She didn't care about the signs that someone had been here, she just walked forward and cuddled in that person's arms obediently: "You're drunk."

"I'm not drunk!" the man said like a child, "I just drank some beer wine, how could I be drunk? What's more, I keep the world's most important secret in my mouth. What if I get drunk and say it?"

Liu Yuan knew that Wentian was already drunk, but she asked maliciously, "What's the secret?"

"Guess?" However, even the drunk Wentian was not so easy to fool, he asked back and put his arms around Liuyuan's waist at the same time.

"Ah!" Liu Yuan exclaimed, blushing a little, and asked in a low voice, "There are rumors in the world that Wentian is the biggest and the secret is his real name. Does anyone need to guess?"

"Hehe, if it's so easy to guess, you still need to guess?" Wen Tiandiao smiled, and with the warm yellow lights in the room, the atmosphere seemed a bit ambiguous.

"I hate it, why don't you tell others!" Seeing that Wentian was trying to tease her, Liu Yuan didn't expect to get an answer, so she followed Wentian's words and began to flirt.

It's just that Wentian didn't continue to tease her as usual, he just looked at her and said, "I can't tell you such a secret, everything else is fine..."

Looking into Wentian's eyes, Liu Yuan felt as if she was about to fall into this vortex and couldn't get out. Even though her heart was tense, she seemed unable to control herself and asked, "Then ask the most valuable question in the world?" , God, what's your name?"

Unexpectedly, Wentian's expression changed instantly, the wind blew by, and the candles in the house flickered, making Wentian's expression a bit unspeakable: "I'm sorry, I can't say."

Accompanied by these words, Liu Yuan's heart was also a little cold, no matter how much she deceived herself, she couldn't ignore such an answer, how could Wentian, who didn't even want to tell her her real name, redeem her back?

"Do you know why I call myself Wentian?" After the gust of wind passed, the room returned to the warm yellow before, but the atmosphere couldn't go back.

Liu Yuan didn't speak, but Wentian answered on her own: "Because when I answered the first person who asked my name, I said I was asking the sky."

Liu Yuan doesn't understand the meaning of this sentence, maybe it means that even Wentian doesn't know her own name, or maybe it has something to do with that "heaven" - the "heaven" of Dengtianmen.

In either case, she won't get an answer tonight.

Suddenly, Wentian hugged her and whispered in her ear: "I'm sorry...I really wanted to take you out...but I...don't even dare to let them know about our relationship..."

Liu Yuan doesn't know who they are, but Liu Yuan is more awake than ever at this moment, yes, she is extremely smart, what else does she not understand after hearing this?She finally understood why Wentian usually called out many other women when he was looking for her.

So... it was to protect her...

But others are changing all the time, only she is the same. This has been exposed long ago. If you want to call her so openly today, you want to make a decision. For the last time they meet, I don’t know who will stand next time they meet. Whose grave.

Putting Wentian, who fell asleep drunk, on the bed, Liu Yuan tore off a piece of cloth, wore the most beloved clothes she specially wore to meet Wentian, and kicked over with that lovely foot that Wentian had praised countless times. The stool under his feet.

At the last moment of blurred consciousness, she saw the tears streaming from the corners of Wentian's eyes, and then at the last moment of her life, she smiled.

……

Back in the evening, Wan Yan led Lu Qi into Zuihualou, without looking at the women, he went straight to the room where Wentian was.

Lu Qi followed Wan Yan, and seeing Wan Yan's calm demeanor, he felt that it was outrageous for him to be so condescending, and the embarrassment in his heart was slightly reduced.

Wentian was drinking when he opened the door. The wine is Zuihualou's signature wine.

"Hey, Xiaoqinghe is here~" Wentian raised his eyes, his eyes were a little hazy, but he was not drunk.

"I'm here to ask some questions." Wan Yao said clearly.

Wentian stretched out one hand to support his face, tilted his head and said with a smile: "Xiaoqinghe really has no mood~ Why do you just ask when you come up?"

Looking at the man in front of him being intimate with Wanjiao, Lu Qi felt a little unhappy, but he couldn't say what he was unhappy about.

"Who killed Mrs. Zhen of the Lu family?" Wan Yan asked with a paralyzed face, ignoring the question.

"The wine in Zuihualou is good, would you like a drink?" Wentian didn't answer, but poured two glasses of wine, and said as if he had just noticed Lu Qi behind Wanjiao, "There is also this little brother who can drink ?"

Lu Xi was a little annoyed, he didn't like this person in front of him, but this person still underestimated him now?

"Of course I will!" He raised his glass and drank it in one gulp, but he didn't expect the wine to be so strong, so he coughed several times.

——Don’t blame him, he has never been to a place like Zuihualou.

"Haha, little brother is really interesting!" Wentian laughed, as if Wan Yao was not there.

Wan Yan was not irritated at all, he knew what Wentian was like, and calmly took a sip of his wine: "Old rules, I'll exchange news, you tell me the news I want."

"Xiaoqinghe is really boring, but who made us friends? So what's the news about Xiaoqinghe?" Hearing the word "news", he asked the sky without any detours. Just as Wanjiao knew him, he also knew Wanjiao and knew Wan Yan asked this question because he was anxious to know the news.

"The 'she' you hid was found."

Wentian was taken aback for a moment, and couldn't even hold back the smile on his lips, his misty eyes instantly sobered up: "Is what you said true?"

"You know who came to the Lu residence."

"Damn it!" Wentian smashed the wine glass in his hand on the table, startling Lu Xi.

"You know what to do, can you tell me my problem now?"

"...I just came to Yunzhou City a few days ago, and that person is in the Lu residence, so I don't know much about it." Wentian hesitated, with an inexplicable look in his eyes.

"Tell me what you know."

"Madam Lian of the Lu Mansion recently killed a maidservant, and that maidservant's body is similar to Zhen's." Wentian replied, but his eyes were fixed on the wine glass in his hand.

"Using the same poison? It seems that Mrs. Lian has a problem." Wan Jia thought.

Lu Qi stood up suddenly: "It must be her! She is always against my mother! Relying on father's favor, she always trips up my mother!"

Seeing Lu Xi's agitated look, Wan Yan said, "Calm down."

"Why do you tell me to calm down?" Lu Qi asked angrily, suddenly realized that it was Wan Yao, and felt a little guilty, "That's my mother's business..."

"So you have to calm down even more." Wan Yan said coldly, "The person who killed your mother may not necessarily be Mrs. Lian."

"But God has already said..."

"I didn't say she was the murderer." Wentian seemed to understand something, and drank the wine in his hand, "This is just a clue I found."

Lu Xi was speechless, but clenched his fists tightly, and there was nowhere to vent the anger in his heart.

"Ah." Wan Yao sighed, he understood Lu Qi's feelings, he had such feelings before, but it passed after all, "We can continue to investigate." He comforted aloud.

"...Well." Lu Xi replied, his mind was full of thoughts.

"Good morning? Then let's go, I'm a little drunk, and I don't want to stay with you two old men when I come to Zuihualou, go fast!" Wentian urged.

Wan Yan got up, and before going out, he suddenly asked: "Have you thought about it?"

"Is there anything you want or don't want to do? For such a thing, ask Tian." Wentian replied vaguely.

Without saying a word, Wan Yan took Lu Qi and left here.

After walking not far, I heard Wentian's voice: "Old Bustard! Call Liu Yuan over."

Wan Yao lowered her eyes, and led Lu Xi out of the gate of Zuihualou.

As soon as the wind blew, Lu Xi became a little sober, and asked, "What did you and Wentian mean just now?"

"Which one are you referring to?"

"I don't understand what you told him and what you said."

"...You don't need to understand, it's someone else's housework."

"...Then let me ask the last question." Lu Xi stopped, saw Wan Yao turn around, and looked him straight in the eyes, "Ask the sky, is he really drunk?"

The wind blew by, bringing up Wanjiao's long hair, and for a moment Lu Xi couldn't see Wanjiao's expression clearly.

For a long time, as if illusory, Wan Yan's voice sounded: "How can a person who sells information get drunk?"

"It's just an excuse."

excuse to escape.
