Chapter 211 The heartless man

However, when Dong Qiqi came to Chunniang's room to look for the indenture, she couldn't find her own one.

She asked some of her close friends, and they all said they didn't know and no one had seen Dong Qiqi's indenture contract.

If she couldn't get her indenture back, she would have no way of leaving her status as a prostitute and would not be able to become a good person.

When they heard that Dong Qiqi was back, all the men who usually visited her came to visit her.

There was a young man in the capital who had a fortune of millions. He hoped that Dong Qiqi could be his concubine and said that he would support her.

There was a young man from a marquis's mansion who wanted to keep a beautiful girl in his mansion and let her perform for him alone.

Even the second prince came and said that he could support her and that he would come to see her occasionally. She didn't have to do anything but play chess with him.

Dong Qiqi rejected them all.

She grew up in a brothel and knew the character of most men. They only cared about her because she was young and beautiful now. When she got old and ugly, she would only be able to beg for mercy.

Unless this person is Liu Mingxu!

Forget it, if she can’t find the indenture contract, then she can’t find it. Brother Mingxu won’t despise her.

Dong Qiqi asked Lanlan to go find Liu Mingxu.

Not long after, Liu Mingxu arrived.

"Brother Xu..." Dong Qiqi looked at him excitedly, her childhood sweetheart who grew up with her.

A hint of apology flashed across Liu Mingxu's brows, but it quickly disappeared.

"Qiqi, you're finally back!"

The two held each other's hands.

"Qiqi, some time ago people said that you and Minister Jing were in love, how come...didn't he take you as his concubine?"

Dong Qiqi gently touched his face and said, "Silly boy, he and I were just acting for the sake of entertainment. How could he take me as his concubine? He only has his wife in his heart."

Liu Mingxu asked again: "Then, what are your plans for the future?"

Dong Qiqi said: "I can't find my indenture contract, and I don't know if Chunniang took it away, but it doesn't matter. Mingxu, let's take this opportunity to run away!"

"Far, far away? Qiqi, where do you want to go?"

Dong Qiqi said, "The sea is wide enough for fish to leap, and the sky is high enough for birds to fly. Why don't we go to Jiangnan? Jiangnan is rich, and we can do some small business there, and then grow old together?"

A hint of amusement flashed across Liu Mingxu's face, but he still held her hand and said, "Okay, Qiqi, when do you want to leave?"

"While Liulefang is in chaos, let's go tonight, okay?"

"But my rouge shop..."

"Are you reluctant to let go?" Dong Qiqi asked.

Liu Mingxu looked embarrassed for a moment, then said, "You gave me everything I needed to open this rouge shop. I have nothing to be reluctant to part with. I'll go back and pack up now."

"Okay." Dong Qiqi's face was filled with a girlish smile, and then she wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.

As soon as Liu Mingxu left, she couldn't wait to start packing her things.

She hid her money very secretly, in a hole drilled on the crossbeam, so that ordinary people could not find it.

Otherwise, her money would be stolen by others during the chaos.

The maid Xiaolan watched Dong Qiqi packing her things. She couldn't help but ask, "Miss, are you really going to go with Master Liu?"

"What else?" Dong Qiqi folded the clothes and said, "Xiao Lan, I will take you with me. When we get to Jiangnan, you can tell others that you are my sister. Then I will find a good family for you to marry into, and we can both live a normal life."

Seeing Dong Qiqi making such plans for her, Xiaolan had to speak out her true feelings: "Miss, since Master Liu expanded his rouge shop, many people have proposed to him."

Dong Qiqi smiled and said, "I know, among them are the daughters of rice shop owners, the daughters of restaurant owners, and many minor officials in the capital. Because Mingxu has no parents, his daughters will not have to serve their parents-in-law after marrying, and their lives will definitely be much better.

But they don't know that Mingxu has me in his heart. But if I marry Mingxu, he might be talked about by others, after all, I am a prostitute, so we have to go to Jiangnan. "

Xiaolan was still worried: "Miss, the first rule for women in our brothel is not to fall in love with men and not to trust men. Have you forgotten? Anyone who is deceived by a man will not have a good ending.

It is better to stay in a brothel and save enough money for retirement. You will not have a bad life. At most... with your status, at most you are just selling smiles, but who in this world does not sell smiles? Even a decent woman has to sell smiles for her husband, her parents-in-law, and her son when she is old. "

Dong Qiqi smiled and touched Xiaolan's face: "I used to think so, but then I met Shangshu Jing, and he was different. So I think Mingxu is different too. Mingxu and I are childhood sweethearts. We are the people who depend on each other the most in this world. He loves me, and I love him too."

Xiaolan always felt that this was not the case, but she didn't know how to explain it to Dong Qiqi, so she could only worry.

……

In the evening, Dong Qiqi had someone prepare an inconspicuous carriage, which was ten levels lower than the one she usually rode when she was a courtesan.

Only in this way would she have a chance to escape.

However, she waited at the back door of Liulefang for a long time, but still did not see Liu Mingxu.

Dong Qiqi had no choice but to call Xiaolan: "Lan'er, why don't you go to Mingxu's house to take a look? Why hasn't he come yet?"

Xiaolan got off the carriage and had just walked a short distance when a group of men in black rushed out. They rushed onto the carriage without saying a word and kidnapped Dong Qiqi.

Xiaolan was so frightened that she didn't dare to say anything and just followed secretly from behind.

After robbing Dong Qiqi, the group of people soon arrived at the home of a government official.

This is Gao Yamen.

He had threatened several times to marry Dong Qiqi as a concubine, but I didn't expect that he would dare to rob her openly!

Xiaolan was extremely anxious and didn’t know who to ask for help. Should she ask Liu Mingxu?

But deep down she didn't believe Liu Mingxu.

In a hurry, she thought of Jing Qishan.

Xiaolan also followed on the way to the northwest. Although she didn't know that Jing Qishan and Dong Qiqi were just playing around, she knew that Dong Qiqi had a high opinion of Jing Qishan and said that he was an upright man.

It happened that this place was not far from Jing Qishan, so she hurried to Jing Qishan's house.

She knocked on the door of the Shangshu Mansion. When the door opened, she knelt down and said, "Please, let me see Master Jing. My young lady is in danger now..."

……

Jing Qishan has been ill for several days and has been in low spirits as he has not received any news from Li Yujiao.

The people below didn't dare to disturb him, and he didn't speak to anyone except Huaning.

Until Li Zhongping came to him in a hurry, "Sir, there is a girl named Xiaolan outside asking for help. She said her daughter is in trouble. I hope you can help her. By the way, her daughter is Dong Qiqi."

Jing Qishan finally forced himself to sit up.
