Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey!

Chapter 171: Chapter 111 Assassination! Who told you I was in the Refining Body Realm?_6

With her alone, all others in the world pale in comparison.

Upon hearing the assassin’s explanation, the housekeeper understood that making a move in Yihong House would not be wise. With the two of them trying something there, they’d probably end up getting taken down directly.

Well, let’s wait then!

Chen Jie followed behind Deng Guangming as their group stepped through the doors of Yihong House. Immediately, they heard the greeter at the door exclaim, ”Yo, Mr. Deng is here! Ladies, come welcome him!”

Deng Guangming, hearing this, waved a hand, and one of his lackeys following behind tossed out a piece of broken silver, likely worth one piece.

”Thank you for your generosity, Mr. Deng!”

The greeter shouted, and just then, an older yet still charming madam swiftly approached, saying, ”Mr. Deng, you’ve arrived.”

Deng Guangming replied, ”Which Oiran is hosting today?”

Upon hearing this, the madam answered, ”Today it is Miss Xia He.”

Deng Guangming tossed out one ingot of ten taels, saying, ”For the tea circle.”

”Got it.”

Soon, the madam smiled and said, ”Okay, Miss Xia He, upper-class table!”

”Mr. Deng, to the second floor, please!”

The madam said with a broad smile, while Deng Guangming, with his hands behind his back, remarked, ”Fifth Brother, Sixth Brother, to the upstairs as well!”

Going to the second floor already?

Chen Jie was a bit curious, but seeing Deng Guangming appearing like a regular, he just followed along.

Reaching the second floor, there was indeed another madam waiting, and there he saw rows of tables with seating on the floor.

Deng Guangming sat at one of the upper-class tables, positioned more towards the front. As he sat there, he said, ”Bring six ladies skilled in Hua Zixiang massage.”

”Yes, Mr. Deng.”

A silver note was handed over, and soon six beautiful young women arrived, all in the prime of youth.

Deng Guangming gestured to the soft couch, and the three men reclined on it, their bodies supported by soft cushions.

Lying there, Chen Jie felt as though he was lounging on a sofa from his past life, and Deng Guangming waved and said, ”Make sure these two gentlemen are comfortable today, and there will be a substantial reward.”

Upon hearing this, the six ladies immediately swarmed over.

A faint fragrance of cosmetics filled the air when a beautiful woman knelt in front of the couch, helping Chen Jie remove his boots and starting to massage his legs. Another one moved behind Chen Jie to massage his shoulders.

The gentle hands kneaded him into a state of complete relaxation.

He had to admit, the upper class really knew how to enjoy life.

On the other side, Zhou Chu started out very tense, but gradually relaxed and began to hum contentedly, ”Ah, this is the life of a man!”

”Comfortable!”

Then, a maid approached the three at their luxurious seating and lit a stick of Dragon Incense. The fragrance quickly spread.

At the same time, plates of fruit were brought out.

The beauty who was massaging Chen Jie’s shoulders picked a grape, peeled it bit by bit, revealing the glistening fruit within.

”Sir.”

Chen Jie looked at the grape being fed to him, opened his mouth, tasted it, and found it sweet!

*How could anyone resist such a life?*

*No wonder everyone loves the second floor; this is the second-floor treatment.*

Yet the price was indeed quite high. He had seen the silver note that Deng Guangming had handed out; it was a hundred taels.

Thinking about Wu Zhong’s five taels, Chen Jie truly felt that Aunt Bai had wronged Uncle Wu Zhong. Five taels might just cover the cost of a meal here.

As for doing anything else, it really didn’t seem enough.

Chen Jie luxuriated in comfort, when suddenly he heard the melodious sound of a guqin.

He opened his eyes and saw, not far away, behind a screen, a woman was playing the guqin. The sound was melodious and beautiful, captivating everyone. Someone even shouted, ”It’s Miss Xia He!”

All eyes turned toward Xia He.

Behind the thin screen, a graceful woman could be seen playing the instrument.

A group of men listened, utterly entranced.

After some time, as the sound continued to resonate, more people began to gather. As Chen Jie and the others were enjoying themselves, he suddenly heard someone say, ”Ah, Mr. Sun is here, upper-class seat!”

Upon hearing this, a robust man walked over, immediately spotting Deng Guangming where he was seated.

He approached.

At that moment, Zhou Chu, who was sitting on another couch, heard the name Mr. Sun and immediately tensed up. He glanced over and then quickly covered his face with a pillow.

Curious, Chen Jie looked over and saw the robust man approaching as he greeted, ”Brother Deng.”

Deng Guangming saw the man and laughed, ”Haha, Brother Sun, it’s been a while.”

”Yes, I came here,” Mr. Sun started to say, then turned his head toward another couch, noticing someone covering their face with a pillow—quite an odd sight.

”Who is this?”

The man asked curiously, what could be so embarrassing here?

Chen Jie noticed Zhou Chu seemed to be shaking. Deng Guangming, standing by, said, ”You don’t recognize him?”

Mr. Sun frowned, ”He looks familiar. Brother, what’s your name?”

Zhou Chu: ...

”Why aren’t you speaking? I’m talking to you. Hmm, this shoe, Shunfeng Escort Agency? One of my people? Let me see who you really are!”

Mr. Sun grabbed the pillow and yanked it away, revealing a face more pitiful than crying, ”Hehe, brother...”

”Brother-in-law! You!”

Oh, crap!

”Hey, brother!”

Mr. Sun raised a hand to strike, but Zhou Chu quickly covered his head. Just then, Deng Guangming said, ”Brother Sun, this is Yihong House.”

Mr. Sun’s hand stopped mid-air, seething with anger, ”Fine, Zhou Chu, just you wait.”

With that, Mr. Sun left, Zhou Chu hurriedly putting on his shoes to give chase, ”Brother, brother...it’s not what you think!”

Deng Guangming then looked at Chen Jie, ”Sixth Brother, this...”

Chen Jie said, ”Fourth Brother, I’ll go have a look, make sure no one gets hurt. Also, thanks for the hospitality, Fourth Brother.”

Deng Guangming replied, ”Fifth Brother, you’re leaving too?”

Chen Jie apologized and left, as Deng Guangming chuckled, ”Oh well, I’ll enjoy myself alone then.”

He shook his head as he thought that Sixth Brother was likely going to have a rough day!

Chen Jie chased after them, but couldn’t see Zhou Chu anywhere. Not knowing where Zhou Chu lived, he thought to just head home.

*Wildflowers may be fragrant, but one shouldn’t leave his wife alone in an empty house!*

With this thought, Chen Jie began walking homeward, when from behind a stone lion not far away, two heads popped out.

One person said, ”He’s finally out.”

The other replied, ”Follow him, there’s a deserted alley up ahead, perfect for making a move!”
