Although they are two completely different types, the woman had to admit that the face she had drawn for Luo Xiu was not as good-looking as his original face.
That face before was like a naturally formed work of art, possessing a unique beauty.
Even though the face she's drawing now is the most handsome face in her mind, it's still not quite as good as it seems.
"Never mind, maybe it's been too long, I can't remember his face."
The woman put down her wine glass, but in the end, she still refused to admit that the person in her memory was not as good as Luo Xiu.
The disguise continues.
It was already mostly finished, and soon the rest was also completed.
Luo Xiu looked at himself in the mirror and was somewhat surprised. He almost didn't recognize himself. The face in the mirror was very different from his own, almost like a different person.
"Your skills are truly excellent; it's a waste of your talents to stay on Rum Street."
Faced with Luo Xiu's praise, the woman's lips curled into a smile. She sat to the side, crossed her legs, and a large expanse of snow-white skin was revealed beneath her nightgown.
"If this is how you pick up girls, I can only say it's rather low-level. I don't like kids."
Luo Xiu was speechless. The woman in front of him was indeed very beautiful. Her hair had the color of a ruby and was draped over one shoulder. Her snow-white neck was delicate and smooth. Underneath her robe, she had a full figure and a beautiful face.
To be honest, she could only be considered a beauty, and in some ways, she was not as good as Milair.
Milair does look better when she smiles, although she doesn't smile from the heart very often.
"Heh, man."
The woman slightly bent her fingers, propped her head up, and gave a wicked smile:
"When you're alone with me, are you thinking about other women to get my attention?"
Luo Xiu was slightly surprised, not expecting that the woman opposite him could see through what he was thinking.
Seeing Luo Xiu's surprised expression, the woman's smile became even more radiant. She stretched, revealing the beautiful curves of her figure:
"Kids are just kids, they're still too inexperienced."
"No matter how many tricks you use, I won't agree to it. After this job, I'm going to leave Kanriel."
Luo Xiu sighed. He really couldn't handle this type of woman. Perhaps it was because he had no conflict with the woman in front of him and couldn't muster the interest to argue.
"Your Excellency is about to advance from the semifinals to the finals. Are you leaving Kanriel now to seek an opportunity?"
The woman before him shone with a light that Luo Xiu had never seen before. It wasn't the half-green and half-blue of the upper fourth rank, but rather most of it had turned into blue.
Luo Xiu therefore guessed that the woman was going to advance from four to five.
Before setting off, he had asked Tata how to proceed from the fourth to the fifth stage.
Tata's answer was to wait for an opportunity to attract God's will.
That's why Luo Xiu asked that question.
Upon hearing Luo Xiu's words, the woman opposite him narrowed her eyes, and the fiery smile on her face seemed to be covered with a thin layer of ice, causing the temperature in the room to drop slightly.
"As expected of Lord Luo Xiu, who just won the competition, you saw right through me. Aren't you afraid I'll turn against you?"
Luo Xiu shook his head.
The woman in front of him was introduced by his teacher and knew he was Tata's student. Besides, he had a feeling that the woman in front of him might not be able to beat him.
He stood up and began practicing smiling in front of the mirror.
"If you were to work with me, your dream of finishing this job and running away in peace might be shattered."
The room temperature rose again.
The woman picked up the wine glass beside her and downed it in one gulp, muttering irritably:
"Even my senior brother's students are bullying me now..."
"What did you say?"
Luo Xiu turned his head; his hearing was excellent.
"Did I say anything?"
The woman smiled, but her smile betrayed her guilt. Just as Luo Xiu was about to press further, a red curtain was lifted, and Xiu Pu emerged from it.
Luo Xiu looked up. At this moment, Xiu was wearing a tight-fitting undershirt, the buttons around his neck were undone, revealing his firm chest, and his pants were covered with silver sacks. With his handsome face, he was definitely a dancer.
It's a pity that the expression on that face is now mournful, which has diminished its beauty.
Luo Xiu's expression froze:
Why don't you change your face?
"Because nobody knows him."
The woman sitting opposite spoke up as if it were the most natural thing in the world:
“You are Luo Xiu, who is famous in Kanriel and crushed the Adventurers’ Academy. He is just White, a regular on Rum Street. There is no need to change his face.”
"You know him?"
Luo Xiu looked at the woman, surprised that she could actually tell him Xiu Pu's pseudonym.
"Of course I know him. Every time this kid comes to Rum Street, he walks all the way to the very back to take a look."
"There are only two shops at the deepest part of this street, including my shop. Every time, this guy would peek at my girl through the shop window, but he wouldn't spend any money. He would just leave and go to a shop outside the street to relieve himself."
As the woman spoke, she looked at Hup with disdain.
Shoep's expression grew even more dejected:
“I’m just carrying forward our family’s tradition of thrift and diligence. You didn’t say that people can’t see it.”
He looked at Luo Xiu beside him, grabbed Luo Xiu's leg, and cried out:
"Brother, she's using this as a pretext for personal revenge. If people on the street find out I've turned into a white duck, my reputation will be completely ruined, brother!"
"..."
Luo Xiu sighed helplessly and looked at the woman opposite him:
"Won't it be noticeable if a guest suddenly turns into a dancer?"
The woman laughed:
“On Rum Street, today you’re a guest, tomorrow you might be a white duck. What’s the big deal? Go up on stage and walk around for a bit, and you’ll see how many people whistle at him.”
Luo Xiu had no choice but to look at Xiu Pu:
"You insisted on coming along..."
"No--"
Shoe's pitiful cries echoed for a long time.
……
Soon, the ball began, and Luo Xiu and Xiu Pu took the stage. Just as the woman had predicted, they garnered a lot of attention as soon as they stepped on stage.
In particular, Luo Xiu was discovered to be tall and imposing, the same type as the Luo Xiu who dominated the dueling arena.
As a young man who is currently enjoying great popularity, this affordable alternative version of Kanriel on stage immediately became a favorite among countless wealthy young women.
Some people threw kisses, some threw gold coins, and some threw their own underwear.
After circling the stage, Luo Xiu and Xiu Pu stepped off, their pockets stuffed full of gold coins.
Heap touched the gold coins in his pocket, his face filled with disbelief:
"Brother, I received 124 gold coins. How many did you receive?"
"I didn't count, maybe two or three hundred."
Luo Xiu spoke calmly, tearing off a huge bra from his shoulder that looked like it was made by sewing together two meat patties baked by Uncle Glenn. It was hard to imagine how heavy the owner of this bra must have been.
"Two or three hundred?"
Shoep stared in disbelief, his eyes gleaming with anticipation:
"Brother, let's stay."
Luo Xiu:
"..."
He should have realized sooner that this kid had no bottom line.
The woman who had disguised them lifted the curtain and entered the lounge, observing the two "disheveled" individuals with great interest:
"Not bad, I think you guys have a lot of potential. It's just a pity that I quit. Otherwise, the three of us together could definitely become the biggest shop on this street."
"I can--"
Before Shoe could finish speaking, the woman stepped forward and gently waved her hands, causing the gold coins in Shoe's pocket to tumble out and fall into her hands.
"What are you doing?!"
Heap stared wide-eyed, heartbroken as he tried to catch the gold coins flying through the air, but he couldn't stop them at all; the woman's rank was much higher than his.
The woman smiled and placed the gold coin that had fallen into her hand into her magic pocket:
"The rule on Rum Street is that the gold coins the dancers receive are split 90/10 with the shopkeeper, I get 90% and you get 10%."
Heap couldn't believe his ears. What kind of rule was this? It was even more ruthless than his own father's.
"Brother, we can't stay here any longer, let's leave quickly."
Luo Xiu felt as if a fly was buzzing in his ear. He remained calm and smiled as he looked at the woman opposite him.
"Sir, when shall we enter the inner city?"
The woman didn't answer. She stared blankly at Luo Xiu's smile until he called her name several more times, at which point she seemed to snap out of her daze and finally spoke:
"Soon, the people at the casino who just made money have received the message, and someone will come to pick you up soon."
"I heard you're going into the inner city to farm materials in the River of Warlocks. Do you have a map of the inner city?"
Luo Xiu shook his head:
"The teacher didn't give them any, and it seems like they're not sold in the city either."
There are many people who can enter the inner city, including Alger, but very few people have a map. Before setting off, Luo Xiu asked Bojelica and the others, but none of them had a map.
