Chapter 344 - Willing To Serve The Young Lord?
Yue opened the door of the room that was assigned to them, and Lin Mu finally saw the insides of it. The room was rather elegantly decorated, having some paintings and flowers placed around. There were even some expensive celadon vases kept on the shelves.
There was a large lamp that hung in the center of the room that had three layers and spread out wide. The lamp was made with polished brass and shone under the flicker of the flames. There was a skylight on the other parts of the room and the moon could be seen through it.
The skylights were made of wooden grills that had the patterns of vines and flowers carved on them. There was another attached room to this one and Lin Mu scanned it with his spirit sense only to find there to be a large bed there. In fact, half of the entire floor of the room was actually a bed.
In the main room though, a low table was placed on the ground and soft cushions embroidered with wisteria blossoms were placed for the people to sit on. While this room was not as luxurious as the one that was given to him by Loud Hei, it was still comparable just that it had a different feel to it.
The one that he lived in was more homely while this was something one would like for a couple of days perhaps, but after that, they may get bored of it.
"Please Young lord, take a seat. The food will be here shortly and then we can have some fun~~~" Yue said while gesturing with her hands.
Lin Mu went ahead and sat down without showing any change of expression. He realized that he was now getting used to the actions and behavior of Yue. While sitting down, Lin Mu discreetly moved his hand across his clothes as if he was straightening them.
Yue did not pay much attention to it and sat down beside Lin Mu.
"So young lord, would you give me the honor of knowing your name?" Yue questioned with a glimmer in her eyes.
The light of the lamps reflected off of her irises and made them look more attractive. She tilted her shoulder slightly, which made the short robe she was wearing to shift and reveal her bare shoulders even more. Perhaps if the robe shifted anymore, it may just fall off completely.
~Gulp~
"I am Mu Lin." Lin Mu gave the same name that he had given the guards before.
He had already talked with Lord Hei before, and he agreed with Lin Mu's decision of using a different name. Wu Hei even said that if everything went well, he will give the fake name for the tournament as well. This way the people will have less chance of knowing who he was.
"Ah! Such a beautiful name, the young lord is indeed a jade that everyone would admire…(1)" Yue said praising Lin Mu.
"Oh, is that so…" Lin Mu replied.
"Indeed," Yue said with a big smile on her face as she node her head.
~Slide~
The door of the room was slid open, and another woman walked.
"The food is here!" Yue exclaimed.
The woman who had walked in kneeled on the ground and gave a bow to Lin Mu before calling for the food.
"Bring the dishes in!" She said.
Then upon her command, a string of servants walked in carrying a lot of dishes in trays. Even the servants that were bringing in the food were beautiful women, but were a few notches low compared to the courtesans like Yue.
But even they gave Lin Mu seductive glances while putting the trays down on the table and bent enough to make sure that Lin Mu got to view the deep valleys that they all had. Lin Mu politely turned his eyes away and instead focused on the food that they had brought in.
There were nearly thirty dishes currently in front of Lin Mu, and all of them looked good. The ones that were aromatic gave out a tantalizing aroma that stimulated one's taste buds and increased their appetite. The ones that were cold had an impeccable presentation and made one admire it as if it were art.
Yue picked up a pair of chopsticks and took a small piece of steamed fish from one of the plates before taking it to Lin Mu's face.
"Young lord, say aaa…" Yue said.
Lin Mu felt a bit awkward at this, but seeing that Yue was getting closer to his clothes, he suppressed the feeling and opened his mouth. Yue gently put the morsel of fish in Lin Mu's mouth and Lin Mu closed it, chewing it a few times.
"MM! This is indeed quite delicious!" Lin Mu truthfully said.
While Lin Mu had been eating roasted spirit beast meat all this time, he had kind of become used to it and was bored. But that was the easiest method for him to prepare a large amount of meat and thus had no choice. Now that he was tasting some actually good food that was made by skillful chefs, he was of course amazed.
Still, if one compared the value of the spirit beast meat that he ate daily and these dishes, they would not compare. The spirit beast meat that he ate was at least ten times more expensive than this. In reality, perhaps only the cultivation sects could afford to feed their disciples spirit beast meat every day.
Besides, hunting spirit beast was actually not as easy as it was for Lin Mu. He had a big advantage due to his skills which allowed him to approach and kill spirit beasts covertly. But now Lin Mu wondered about one thing, what was this going to cost him?
Ever since he had walked into the Alluring wisteria pavilion, he had not paid a single cent.
'Do they not take payment or something?' Lin Mu wondered in his mind.
"I'm happy that the young lord is satisfied by our food." The woman who had brought in the food thanked.
Lin Mu looked at them and saw that they had not left the room yet. Even the servants were looking at him with expectant gazes. Yue noticed Lin Mu's confusion and helped.
"Would the young lord prefer if these sisters accompanied him for the night? They are willing to serve the young lord." Yue said.
