Qi Yu came here purely to admire beautiful young ladies and eat delicious food.
As she had expected.
The food served at this drinking establishment was indeed delicious. As soon as the dishes were brought out, the aroma alone was more fragrant than that from other restaurants.
"Wow, it smells so good," Qi Yu beckoned to the several plump, graceful, and stunning beauties before her. "Don't just watch, come, come, eat with me."
As she spoke, she lowered her head and began to eat heartily.
The large pork knuckle in her hand was fragrant and delicious.
As for those beautiful young ladies, they sat stunned in their seats, not daring to move.
Qi Yu handed each of them a large pork knuckle.
These lovely girls were all top performers in the demon race's pleasure house. After each of them finished their pork knuckle and wiped their hands, they lined up to perform.
Qi Yu found it boring to just listen to singing and dancing. After they had each performed once, she couldn't help but slap a bag of silver onto the table and said, "Young ladies, it's too boring to just sing and dance. How about something more fun? Can you do any tricks? For example, transform back into cats and play with a feather ball, or jump through a hoop? In short, do you have any special acrobatic skills, whether in your original forms or human forms? Whatever you can do, just show it. All this silver is yours."
Qi Yu's seat was in a private room.
Furthermore, a protective formation had been set up around it, for fear that her voice might be overheard.
Seeing that the private room was secluded and Qi Yu was offering plenty of silver, the beauties and lovely young ladies agreed without a second thought.
It was much simpler to transform back into their original forms and perform a few acrobatic feats to please Qi Yu than to talk about wine, play music, or strum the zither.
They could eat, transform back into their original forms, relax for a while, and earn money.
They wished that guests like Qi Yu, who were so easy to please, would come every day.
After all, a guest who was rich, good-looking, smelled good, and could nourish them with spiritual energy was far better than those noisy, boisterous, ignorant monsters who only knew how to drink and eat meat.
Qi Yu watched the little cats jump through hoops, the little dogs balance on balls, and the rabbits jump rope, finding it increasingly amusing.
Just then, there was a sudden knock on the door from outside.
Qi Yu quickly told them to transform back.
After confirming that the private room had returned to normal, Qi Yu opened the door.
Outside, the madam wore an awkward smile.
Then, she slowly stepped aside.
Behind her, Si Qing stood with a gloomy expression, his face as dark as a thundercloud.
Qi Yu: "..."
"Oh, little brother."
She offered Si Qing an awkward yet polite smile.
Si Qing cast a glance at the lovely young ladies inside the private room.
The young ladies' expressions changed, and they quickly scurried away with their bags of silver.
They were scared.
After escorting Si Qing to the entrance of the private room, the madam quickly made her exit.
Qi Yu returned to her seat and sat down. Looking at the gloomy Si Qing opposite her, she quickly blinked obediently and said, "Si Qing Qing~"
"Using diminutives, how disgusting," Si Qing grumbled. He then slammed his hand heavily on the table. "Sister! Why did you come to this place in the middle of the night? Why didn't you tell me?"
Qi Yu fiddled with her fingers. "If I told you, wouldn't you have stopped me from coming?"
Si Qing was momentarily speechless.
Qi Yu looked innocent.
Finally, she transformed into a small ball, slumping softly in her seat with an expression that said, "I am innocent, I am pure, I am harmless."
"Sister... if you really wanted to go, do you think I'm the kind of person who would abandon you?" Si Qing said angrily.
He had woken up to use the restroom and, passing by his sister's room, discovered her bed was empty!
His sister was gone!
Si Qing recalled the scene and felt a lingering fear, causing him to slam the table again.
Qi Yu, who had been quietly eating, was startled by the sudden slam of the table and let out a hiccup.
Si Qing was exasperated.
Qi Yu, while suppressing her hiccups, asked curiously, "So far, only you have discovered I'm gone? Have others noticed? Did you create a diversion, pretending that we were both still in our respective rooms?"
After speaking, she patted her forehead guiltily. "I was just thinking about coming out to have fun and completely forgot about using a clone to pretend I was still asleep. If I had remembered, you wouldn't have found me today."
Si Qing glared at her fiercely. "What do you think? Of course, no one else noticed, otherwise, I wouldn't be the only one here today."
Qi Yu shut her mouth and assumed an obedient posture.
Si Qing sat there fuming for a while. Finally, he realized that sitting there and being angry was useless. The heartless sister opposite him was still secretly eating.
She showed no signs of remorse.
Thinking of this, Si Qing became even angrier. He picked up his chopsticks and began to eat heartily. After eating, he realized that the dishes at this pleasure house were indeed excellent, with perfect color, aroma, and taste. The portions were also very generous; instead of just a few slices of meat like in ordinary demon restaurants, there were substantial chunks of meat.
After eating for a while, Si Qing couldn't help but serve himself another bowl of rice.
Qi Yu, who had been cautious due to her guilt, couldn't help but chuckle when she saw him eating so heartily.
"Don't laugh, I'm still angry," Si Qing grumbled, his mouth stuffed with rice and meat.
Qi Yu reached out and poked his cheek, then asked ingratiatingly, "Don't you also think the food here is delicious? The taste is super authentic, right? Especially the braised pork, even though it's not made with pork, it feels even more tender and fragrant than pork."
Si Qing ate heartily, scoffing as he did. "So, your purpose for sneaking out behind all of us and coming to a pleasure house tonight was just for wine and meat?"
Seeing that Qi Yu had chosen a private room, it seemed she hadn't watched the performances outside. And the girls who had come out earlier were all beautiful young ladies, so nothing extraordinary could have happened.
"Hey, otherwise, I just wanted to come and see the excitement, relax a bit, and eat my fill before having a good time in the pleasure house. So, I hadn't even had a chance to do anything yet," Qi Yu said with a hint of grievance in her voice.
Si Qing paused his eating. After he had eaten his fill, he wiped his mouth, stood up gracefully, and said, "Sister, don't just talk. Hurry up and eat. After you're full, come out with me."
"? Go back? Then let me eat a few more bites." Qi Yu said as she picked up her rice bowl and put the dishes, meat, and rice into her mouth one after another.
Si Qing cleared his throat. "Not to go back. Aren't you curious? I'll take you to have a great time here."
Qi Yu: "... Pfft... Cough, cough, cough..."
She almost choked to death on his words.
