Chapter 91 The Courtesan Contest Part 7

Xu Yingjie handed the silver note to Geng San, asking the judges to verify its authenticity. Then, he puffed out his chest and glanced disdainfully at Wang Wenzhou. "You fat bastard, you dare to compete with the young master? The young master may not have much else, but he's certainly not short of money!"

"Idiot!" Wang Wenzhou thought to himself with a laugh. "You're handing me money! All that money will end up in my pocket."

Sheng Lan said bitterly, "Congratulations, Miss Liu, your total number of flowers is currently 800 million, far ahead of other contestants."

Liu Rushi silently watched Wang Wenzhou, when she suddenly noticed a wicked smile on his face.

These past few days, Wang Wenzhou has been relentlessly pursuing her, "bumping into" him wherever she goes. And Wang Wenzhou's every other word is: "Ruru, Ruru, I love you; Ruru, Ruru, I want to sleep with you."

Liu Rushi really couldn't understand how such a shameless fat man could be so beloved by the people of Hanshan.

Geng San handed the list written by the judges to Sheng Lan.

Sheng Lan glanced at the list and said, "After evaluation by the judges, the five girls who have advanced to tomorrow's final are Liu Rushi, Miss Liu, Li Yajing, and Miss Li..."

The match has ended, and the spectators are leaving.

Wang Qiang asked Wang Wenzhou, "Young Master, aren't you going back to Zuihualou to sleep tonight?"

Wang Wenzhou said with a smile, "Miss Tian Xiangying sang quite well. I plan to give her an extra audition tonight."

"Young Master, you've gone a bit too far! Xiao Liang said that your wife has been secretly wiping away tears these past few days, but he didn't dare tell you, so I'm the one who has to comfort you," Wang Qiang complained.

"Hmm? Is Lazy Blue unhappy?" Wang Wenzhou asked.

"Do you think your sister-in-law will be happy?" Wang Qiang said sarcastically.

"Haha..." Wang Wenzhou chuckled mischievously, "Great! I love it when she's unhappy!"

Wang Qiang frowned deeply. Had the young master gone mad with infatuation again? Did the young master really not like Sheng Lan anymore?

"Young Master, have you fallen for Miss Liu?" Wang Qiang asked.

"Please emphasize the word 'up'!" Wang Wenzhou said with a wicked grin.

“But Miss Liu doesn’t want to talk to you either! Your sister-in-law is so nice!” These days, Sheng Lan has been taking care of Wang Qiang like a younger brother, so of course Wang Qiang would speak up for Sheng Lan.

"Xiaoqiang, what do you know? Picking up girls is like scamming. If a girl likes you, as long as you give her a surprise, she will automatically forget a lot of bad things," Wang Wenzhou said calmly.

Wang Qiang was very puzzled; what tricks was the young master up to now?

……

The next day, early in the morning, Wang Wenzhou again led people to unfurl a banner expressing his love in front of Yuelai Building.

The people of Hanshan County are already used to it.

As soon as Liu Rushi opened her eyes, Shuiyu said, "Miss, Wang Wenzhou is here again."

"Hehe..." Liu Rushi smiled bitterly, she had never seen such a shameless person as Wang Wenzhou.

Liu Rushi went downstairs and walked towards Wang Wenzhou.

Liu Rushi had been ignoring Wang Wenzhou for the past few days, but today she suddenly came to his door. Wang Wenzhou was secretly delighted. Could it be that Rushi has finally been moved by his sincerity and is planning to serve him in bed?

Liu Rushi asked, "Wang Wenzhou, you don't like me, so why do you do this every day?"

Damn it! Overthinking again? Wang Wenzhou frowned and asked, "Ruru, why did you say I don't like you?"

Liu Rushi was adopted by Xu Fo, a famous courtesan in Jiangnan, when she was a child. Having grown up in a brothel, she was very clear about men's hypocrisy.

Liu Rushi smiled slightly and said, "You can't fool me."

"If I said I like sleeping with you, would you believe me?" Wang Wenzhou asked.

“That’s true!” Liu Rushi said calmly.

“Okay, Ruru, how can I sleep with you?” Wang Wenzhou asked, frowning.

"Dream on!" Liu Rushi said irritably.

“As for talent, I’m not bad! My poems are pretty good, aren’t they?” Wang Wenzhou asked.

Liu Rushi nodded and said, "That poem is indeed well written and can be called a masterpiece for all time."

“As for money, I’m not short of cash,” Wang Wenzhou said.

“You are not short of money or talent, but you are lacking in morality!” Liu Rushi mocked.

"Ruru, please don't slander me! The people of Hanshan all call me Wang Qingtian!" Wang Wenzhou said confidently.

Liu Rushi said calmly, "I thought about it for a long time last night and suddenly realized something. I want to ask you about it and see how you answer it?"

“Ruru, ask away. I will answer every question and will never lie,” Wang Wenzhou said.

“A county magistrate who has earned tens of thousands of taels of silver in just two months in office, can he be a good official? Can he be a good person?” Liu Rushi asked.

"I spent two months developing a small county with only 10,000 people into a metropolis with 250,000. I ensured that the people had enough to eat and could earn money. I admit that I made some money during this period. But with my abilities, I could still make a lot of money and sleep with beautiful women even if I didn't become the county magistrate. Why should I be a poor but honest official just because I became the county magistrate?" Wang Wenzhou asked rhetorically.

“Hmm…” Liu Rushi frowned. What Wang Wenzhou said wasn’t entirely wrong.

“But you treat women as playthings!” Liu Rushi said coldly.

"Damn!" Wang Wenzhou exclaimed inwardly. Liu Rushi was actually a feminist. Even in later generations, feminists were a rare breed.

"Well, I didn't force any of the girls to participate! It was their own choice to participate. Everyone has the right to choose how to make money, whether they stand, kneel, or lie down—that's their freedom!" Wang Wenzhou said with a smile.

"Hmph!" Liu Rushi snorted coldly.

"Ruru, you haven't had breakfast yet, have you? Come on, I'll treat you to breakfast!" Wang Wenzhou said with a smile.

"No need for you to invite me! Thank you!" Liu Rushi replied irritably.

Wang Wenzhou is a conman who knows a bit about psychology. He knows that if a girl initiates a conversation with him, even if she's yelling at him, it means she's somewhat interested in him. Wang Wenzhou wouldn't let such a golden opportunity slip by.

"Ruru, we've been friends for so long, you don't need to be so polite with me!" Wang Wenzhou said with a grin.

"Shameless! When has my young lady ever been on good terms with you?" Shuiyu scolded angrily.

"What would Miss Shuiyu like to eat?" Wang Wenzhou asked ingratiatingly.

"Hmph!" Shui Yu refused to acknowledge Wang Wenzhou.

Wang Wenzhou shamelessly dragged Liu Rushi to a teahouse to sit down.

"Are you the mastermind behind the Flower Queen Contest?" Liu Rushi suddenly asked.

The official owner of the Courtesan Contest is Geng San. Although many people know that Geng San is close to Wang Wenzhou, few people really know that Wang Wenzhou is the real boss behind the Courtesan Contest.

"If you are indeed exceptionally intelligent, how did you discover that?" Wang Wenzhou asked.

"You don't even like me, so why would you spend so much money on me?" Liu Rushi said calmly.

"Then I'm curious, how do you know I don't like you? Does Xu Yingjie really like you?" Wang Wenzhou asked.

"Xu Yingjie really likes me, but he's even worse than you!" Liu Ru really disliked Xu Yingjie and other sons of noble families; they were capable of all sorts of rotten things.

Wang Wenzhou glanced out the window and saw Xu Yingjie staring at him menacingly.

"Ruru, a kiss is worth ten thousand taels of silver, would you sell it?" Wang Wenzhou asked with a wicked smile.
