Previously at the General's Mansion, even though Luo Qing Luan had heard Nalan Ye speak before, it was merely a few lines and it had been a long time since then. She didn't keep him in mind.

Now that Nalan Ye was right in front of her, she didn't know that this person was the famously grim, yet brilliant titled prince, Nalan Ye.

"Is your distinguished self the owner of this Heavenly Dream Tower? Are you the person who wanted to see me?" Luo Qing Luan was not timid in the least as she walked over, her line of sight shifting from Nalan Ye to Nangong Chen.

"I saw everything that happened downstairs with you a moment ago."

Nangong Yu didn't look down on Luo Qing Luan because of her young age at all and cupped his hands towards her in a respectful greeting, then smiled faintly. "I am Heavenly Dream Tower's owner. You can call me Mister Yu. I wonder what is your honorable last name, Just now downstairs, they didn't show you sufficient respect. I hope you don't take offense."

Luo Qing Luan walked forward and sat down facing him with eyebrows raised. "So this means that you don't plan on reneging your debt?"

If that was the case, she could still look at this person with some respect. Someone who couldn't take defeat gracefully and want to renege on his debt was someone who she would disdain to continue to speak with.

Smiling faintly, Nangong Yu already took out a banknote from his chest pocket and pushed it towards Luo Qing Luan's side. "Even though my Heavenly Dream Tower is not a mainstream business, such an insignificant amount of money won't be allowed to ruin our reputation. Moreover, you won it with your own abilities. I quite admire that and would like to become friends with you."

Money is here, no need to pretend she didn't want it. Luo Qing Luan took the banknote after a quick look. Indeed, it's a banknote for two thousand taels of silver from Myriad Treasures Exchange, convertible into money at any of their branches throughout the country.

Luo Qing Luan put away the banknote and finally said her name. "My last name is Luo, but I'm not any nobility. My family does some small business, that's all. Naturally, I can't compare to Mister Yu's famous Heavenly Dream Tower."

Originally already suspicious, once Nalan Ye heard this name, he took another quick glance at Luo Qing Ye and a crafty, pretty face immediately flashed in his mind. He sneered. Wasn't this person precisely the General's Mansion's second Miss Luo? She actually dressed as a man and ran here to visit a courtesan house?

Luo Qing Luan did not miss this meaningful glance at all as she turned her head to look. She saw Nalan Ye's strange gaze and also that cold and detached face, as if everybody owed him several millions in money.

Mr. Yu, is this person a friend of yours?" She knit her brows and asked.

"Heh heh, this is......you can call him Ziqing." Nangong Yu naturally wouldn't easily give away Nalan Ye's identity. Without thinking it through, he spoke this name. In regards to this name of Nalan Ye's, only people closest to him would know it. Even if he told other people, they wouldn't associate it with him.

Luo Qing Luan really did not enjoy looking at such an ice-cold face.

With regards to people she did not like, she was simply disinclined to take another look at them. Therefore, she only spoke to Nangong Yu. "Mr. Yu, is it possible that your entire family are in the courtesan house business?"

Once Nangong Yu heard this, he nearly choked on his tea and spurt it out.

His Imperial Highness, the grand second prince of Western Chu, had actually been made to into a man making a living off of a courtesan house? Would people die of laughter if this spread? He was just bored a few years ago and casually fiddled with something to make money for fun, that's all. Ordinarily when he had nothing to do, there would be one more place for him to amuse himself with. Otherwise, what's he doing fooling around at a courtesan house?

This kind of business, regardless of what country we're talking about, is still a money making business. When connections were needed, he had connections. When headway was needed, he could make headway. All of the young ladies working under him are as lovely as flowers, and can carry on a conversation skillfully. Otherwise, how could they become the number one courtesan house in the capital?

Even if he opened a courtesan house, he still wanted it to be the best. Only that would be fitting for his, Nangong Yu's status.

However, in the end, this information still could not be leaked. Otherwise, if news spread that a prince opened a courtesan house, it probably would not be too good.

"How's that possible......"

Nangong Yu promptly denied her suggestion, afraid if he spoke too slowly, the other person would make too many associations and indirectly damage his royal family's reputation. "I'm the one who opened this Heavenly Dream Tower. It has nothing to do with anyone in my family. Virtuous Little Brother Luo, you came for a visit today. What do you think?"

Originally, he only asked the question casually and did not expect Luo Qing Luan to give him a serious answer, but she really looked at him, with a bit of a joking manner in her gaze. "Mr. Yu really want to know my opinion?"

"Uh, is it possible that there is some problem?" Nangong Yu was also curious this time.

It had been an entire three years since his Heavenly Dream Tower opened for business. Guests had always floated in like the clouds. Moreover, every famous beauty was also bound to settle at Heavenly Dream Tower, busily entertaining guests everyday, profits as high as a thousand taels per day. Other courtesan houses, on the other hand, even if they were ranked second, like Rainbow Pavilion, were still on a whole different level. The rest of the courtesan houses were not even worth mentioning.

"Not only is there a problem, there are no small number of problems." Luo Qing Luan answered grimly. Based on her way of looking at things, it was very easy to see Heavenly Dream Tower's modus of operandi. The flaws she had seen were merely ascertained from the gathering during the short previous period of time. If she had the opportunity to thoroughly understand the workings here, she'd absolutely be able to see even more problems.

If it wasn't for the fact that she found this man named Mr. Yu pleasing to the eye, moreover, he also was straightforward and did not renege on his debt, she would not have told him.

"Alarmist talk to scare people." Suddenly, that ice-cold voice sounded beside them.

Luo Qing Luan's gaze swept over, her heart already felt somewhat uneasy. Why was this person's personality so strange?

Without the slightest bit of manners, interrupting people as he wishes, moreover, he had not even heard what she had to say and already contradicted her. No need to think, he must be arrogant and conceited and in addition, a man with an eccentric temperament.

"Didn't ask you to listen. If your distinguished self doesn't like to hear, then will you cover your ears." She responded in the same cold manner, then looked at Nangong Yu and continued. "If Mr. Yu don't believe me, then I won't speak, never mind it. In any case, I'm not the one losing money."
