Chapter 87: Chapter 87: The Cold and Charming Oiran

Chu Nanli had thought that the feat of flying wasn’t so easy to realize and might require the help of pulleys, but to her surprise, Bright Moon Building was full of talented people, and there was actually a girl from a family of military generals who knew Qinggong.

Even more fortunately, this girl could also dance.

Xinlian’s face was tinged with a trace of a smile, "Her parents wanted her to be a proper lady, so they forced her to learn the zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting. She had to undergo daily checks on her lessons, and only when her tutor deemed them satisfactory could she practice martial arts. Thus, she became proficient in both culture and combat."

At this point, Xinlian’s expression became more contained as she said to Chu Nanli, "This girl is called Yuan Qiu, her parents are still alive, but they were sent to the frontier. Her wish is to save up enough money to leave Bright Moon Building and find her parents at the frontier."

Chu Nanli asked, "Do you want me to let her leave when the time comes?"

Xinlian nodded and softly replied, "Yes."

"Rest assured, I will let her go. The girls in Bright Moon Building are just working for me; they aren’t bonded to me," Chu Nanli reassured.

After finishing, Chu Nanli stood up and said, "Let’s go and see how their rehearsal is going."

The cheers of the guests from the front of the building could still be heard in the backyard, but they were soon overshadowed by the cheers of the girls themselves.

Chu Nanli watched from the corridor.

She saw a girl leaping from the top of the building, her white dress fluttering, the waves of her skirt lifting in the gasps of the audience as she landed, and then she deftly swung her water sleeves...

A flash of astonishment crossed Chu Nanli’s eyes.

Before she knew it, the dance was over.

"What do you think? Yuan Qiu is now the Oiran of Bright Moon Building," Xinlian said with pride.

Looking at Yuan Qiu’s cool and spirited features, Chu Nanli couldn’t help but nod.

Stunningly cold.

That was the first term that came to her mind.

"Yuan Qiu is truly beautiful."

At these words, Xinlian turned to look at Chu Nanli, disguised as a man, and said earnestly, "My lord, you are even more beautiful. You and Yuan Qiu, at first glance, share a similar aura, both with a coolness that creates a sense of distance. But in my opinion, my lord, you are most suited to wearing red dresses, dazzling and passionate, with a strikingly impactful beauty, which I believe is the real you."

Chu Nanli touched her nose.

Uh... People around her in her past life had said the same thing.

Her master had once said, if she wasn’t a military medic but a spy, men from any country would fall at the feet of her fiery red dresses.

"My lord, next time I’ll pick out some red dresses for you," Xinlian suggested, then caught herself feeling tickled by the thought.

Chu Nanli quickly refused.

"No need, not at the moment." If she dressed too conspicuously now, Ye Yunting, that mad dog, might think she was out to seduce other men.

"When you need it, be sure to tell me," said Xinlian, looking disappointed.

Chu Nanli replied absentmindedly and went out to meet several of the girls.

Noticing her arrival, the girls all showed a look of amazement and then curiously turned towards Xinlian.

Xinlian said, "This is our true master of Bright Moon Building, Master Jin Nan."

The girls were stunned for a moment and then their eyes reddened.

Yuan Qiu took the lead in giving a respectful bow, her cool and pretty face extremely earnest.

"We are grateful to the master for providing us with such a comfortable haven."

"Thank you, master."

The other girls followed suit, bending their knees in a respectful greeting.

"I also need you to help me make money," Chu Nanli did not want them to set all their hopes on her because of her actions, so she spoke very straightforwardly.

However, not a single face showed any odd expression.

Yunting said earnestly, looking at her, "We are clear on the help and kindness you’ve shown us."

After a pause, she continued, "I wonder if Master Jin Nan would be willing to have a private word with Yuan Qiu?"

Chu Nanli was taken aback.

The others were also stunned.
