Chapter 126: The Red Lotus Plan
Lan Rui was not shy at all and laughed twice: "I will definitely stay with you forever. Even if we get married in the future, I will still be your housekeeper and continue to help you take care of you!"
Honglian also laughed and teased her: "You are not a nanny, you are obviously a thug!"
"I'll be a thug if I can. As long as I can help the girl and be of use, I'm happy to be a thug!" Lan Rui said proudly.
"Alright, alright." Daiyu interrupted the two people's quarrel and asked Honglian again, "Honglian, what do you think? This Zhai Yunxiao is also a young and promising man. These days, Lin Ji and his men have also secretly investigated his escort agency. He is well-received and no confidantes have been found.
Of course, I won't force you, but I think it will be easier for me to get information from him with you here today. If he dares to say something frivolous to you, I will beat him up without you having to do anything!"
"Miss..." Honglian choked up, and the tears that had just been held back began to well up in her eyes again. She opened her arms to hug Daiyu, but Lan Rui grabbed her by the back of her collar.
Lan Rui's excuse was quite reasonable: "Stop crying, or your makeup will get ruined, and it won't be good if the powder on your face gets on the girl!"
Honglian couldn't help laughing when she heard this. She wiped the tears off her face and argued, "I've already used the girl's... spray, how could it possibly bloom! Lanrui, you always want to monopolize the girl!"
Lan Rui felt a little dizzy from Honglian's seductive eyes. She let go of her hand and sat blankly against the wall of the car.
Honglian didn't notice Lan Rui's strangeness. She stared at Daiyu with her deep eyes. Her slender eyebrows were slightly wrinkled. She put her red lips close to Daiyu and said seriously, "Don't worry, young lady. I will definitely help you get Zhai Yunxiao's words out of you in a while!"
Daiyu gently stroked her chest, trying to calm the throbbing in her heart, and thought to herself: Who did this Honglian learn bad things from recently? How come she is a bit like Qin Keqing? I can't resist her!
After a while, her brain started to work again: "Just don't think I'm taking advantage of you."
Honglian tilted her head and looked at Daiyu, her red lips slightly raised: "As your maid, it is my duty to help you solve your problems. Why do you think this way?"
Daiyu, with great self-control, closed her eyes, silently chanted the Heart Purification Mantra, and mourned for Zhai Yunxiao for five seconds. He fell in love with such a charming red lotus, I don't know whether it was his luck or his calamity!
Soon, Lingji drove the carriage to the door of a restaurant. This time they were all wearing men's clothes, so they didn't have to enter through the back door.
Lan Rui was still a little dazed when she got off the car. Lin Ji secretly pinched her arm and whispered in her ear, "Why are you a little absent-minded?"
Lan Rui's eyes were dull, and she looked at Lin Ji blankly: "Brother Lin Ji, do you think Hong Lian is pretty?"
Lin Ji was slightly stunned, and did not answer Lan Rui's question. Instead, he said to Daiyu first: "Sir, Brother Lan and I will go to the backyard to park the carriage and come up later."
Daiyu nodded and walked into the restaurant with Honglian. How could she not notice that Lan Rui was acting strange, but she decided to let them solve the problem themselves first. If that didn't work, she would intervene.
Daiyu walked steadily and with an upright posture, like a pine or cypress; and although Honglian was slender, it could be seen from her footsteps that she was not as weak as she looked.
The two walked into the restaurant one after the other. Ah Meng and the waiter came up to greet them: "Mr. Dai!"
Daiyu nodded to Ah Meng and told the waiter, "My two followers have gone to the backyard and will come back later. You can lead them up later."
"Okay!" the waiter responded enthusiastically, swinging the white cloth on his shoulders with a snapping sound. The shouting sounded a bit harsh to Daiyu.
Ah Meng bowed his head slightly and said to Daiyu respectfully, "Mr. Dai, please follow me!"
As he spoke, he did not forget to secretly glance at Honglian behind him.
Honglian pretended to be indifferent and followed Daiyu closely.
The door of the private room was gently pushed open. Zhai Yunxiao immediately stood up and looked at the three people who came in with a warm smile on his face: "Brother Dai, I am honored that you can come to my invitation!"
His gaze passed over Daiyu and fell on the much taller figure behind her, and the smile on his face suddenly became brighter.
Daiyu smiled meaningfully. She tilted her head slightly and said softly, "Brother Zhai, I am sorry to bother you so much by coming here this time!"
"Where there!"
After the two exchanged pleasantries, Zhai Yunxiao took the lead in asking, "This... little brother looks unfamiliar to me, how should I address him?"
Daiyu was laughing in her heart, but she had to suppress the corners of her mouth that were curling upwards wildly, which was really difficult.
Seeing that Daiyu didn't say anything, Honglian replied calmly, "Feng Lian."
"Which seal? Which company?" Zhai Yunxiao asked.
At this time, Lan Rui and Lin Ji also walked in from outside.
Seeing this scene, Daiyu complained in her heart: Great! Another couple!
She couldn't help but look at A Meng and found that his expression was even worse than hers, which made her feel much more balanced.
As long as you are not the most embarrassed one there, it will be fine!
Thinking this, Daiyu ignored Zhai Yunxiao who was counting tickets at the peacock, walked to the table, sat down and poured herself a cup of tea.
Ah Meng felt that his young master was beyond salvation, and hurried over to Daiyu to greet her.
He poured hot tea for Daiyu and tried to save his young master's reputation: "Haha, my young master is not like this usually. It's just that I saw that this little brother looked kind, so I got excited and chatted a little more."
Daiyu hid the smile on her lips and nodded seriously: "Yes, I understand."
It was not until the waiter served the dishes that Zhai Yunxiao remembered today's guests. He said to Daiyu with an apologetic look, "Brother Dai, I'm so sorry. Brother Feng and I hit it off right away and had a great time talking. I didn't realize I talked too much."
"I understand!" Daiyu added silently in her heart: Who wouldn't want to chat more when seeing such a pleasing person? If it were me, I would probably not be able to stop chatting.
But getting back to the point, Daiyu began to ask about the ranking of the escort agencies in the capital and the forces behind them.
Perhaps it was because Honglian was present, Zhai Yunxiao was responsive to every request, answered every question, and told everyone he knew.
By the end of the questioning, Daiyu felt a little embarrassed, because if she were to send someone to inquire about this information herself, it would probably take two years and she might not be able to understand it in such detail.
Regardless of Zhai Yunxiao's purpose, Daiyu is still grateful to him for this matter. However, this does not mean that Daiyu will sacrifice Honglian's happiness in order to thank him.
