The abstinent and powerful minister is cold and aloof during the day, but he adores her in his dream

Chapter 84 He actually likes this kind of wild side in private.

Ouyang Lei looked at Lu Zhan with a puzzled expression. Then, as if he had just thought of something, he nudged Lu Zhan's arm and winked at him, saying, "Old Lu, is this a new trend that's recently become popular in brothels? I can't believe that Duan Ling and I have fallen behind in just a few days since we last visited a brothel."

Upon hearing this, Duan Ling suddenly realized, "So this is a game that originated in brothels!" Then he looked at Lu Zhan with a complicated expression, "Old Lu, how many brothels have you been visiting behind our backs to become so experienced?"

Lu Zhan ignored the two's inappropriate behavior, brushed Duan Ling's hand away, and scanned the hands of the group of girls one by one.

After a moment, he said calmly, "You may leave."

The girls looked disappointed.

In the past, they would have definitely pestered them.

But now, faced with such a noble and dignified man, they instinctively obeyed his orders and withdrew.

The private room fell silent immediately.

Duan Ling looked astonished. "Old Lu, even if you don't like them, you should at least leave two for us."

Ouyang Lei nodded in agreement, "That's right, we're not like you, we're not that picky."

Lu Zhan glanced at the two of them with some disdain, "When you go out, whatever you do, don't say that you are from the Dali Temple."

"Why?" Ouyang Lei protested.

"Disgraceful!" Lu Zhan spat out the two words without any politeness.

Ouyang Lei: "..."

Duan Ling: "..."

Realizing what was happening, Duan Ling retorted, "Food and sex are basic human needs. We're just normal people with those needs, so how is that shameful?"

“Exactly, at least we’re upright and honest, unlike some people who hide things, appearing respectable but actually engaging in more shady activities than us,” Ouyang Lei said sarcastically.

Duan Lingshen agreed, "We already want someone who's spoiled and feisty, but they also want someone who knows how to have fun? Tsk tsk tsk, we can't even bear to watch. Old Lu, you're two-faced!"

Speaking of this, Ouyang Lei looked at Lu Zhan with surprise and curiosity, "I didn't expect you to like this kind of thing. I always thought you liked gentle and virtuous women. I never expected this! Old Lu, you're really wild!"

Lu Zhan: "..."

"We've really had an eye-opening day!"

"Old Lu, we really misjudged you before, no, the whole government and the public misjudged you. You've been hiding your true colors too well."

Seeing that the two were still arguing, Lu Zhan's temple throbbed, and he coldly said, "Shut up!"

The two men then shut up, but their eyes gleamed with a strange light. They thought to themselves: If their colleagues knew about Lao Lu's private character, they would be shocked.

The two were eager to expose Lu Zhan's private character.

Before long, the madam returned to the private room with eight girls.

“Young master, I have found all the girls who meet your requirements as you instructed.”

Lu Zhan nodded and looked at Duan Ling.

Duan Ling immediately took out a gold ingot and threw it over.

The madam took it, her eyes narrowing into slits with a smile, and instructed the girls, "You girls must take good care of these young masters."

After the madam left with the gold, Duan Ling belatedly realized what was happening and looked at Lu Zhan with a puzzled expression, "Why am I paying for the girl you chose?"

"Isn't it your treat today?" Lu Zhan retorted.

Duan Ling: "..."

He looked at Ouyang Lei, "When did I say that?"

Afraid that he would be asked to share the cost, Ouyang Lei's eyes flashed, and he patted him on the shoulder, "You are of noble status and your family is more well-off than the two of us, so naturally you should pay. However, you don't actually need to give gold; one ingot of silver is enough."

Duan Ling: "..."

Seeing his generosity, the girls' eyes lit up, and noticing the three men's good looks, they immediately started flirting with them.

"I've heard that you gentlemen have rather unusual tastes, preferring bold and unrestrained women. I'm sure I can satisfy you all."

"I am proficient in all kinds of musical instruments and singing." "Would you like to see a striptease, or hear me perform the 'Eighteen Touches'?"

"Young master, my skills are quite good; I guarantee I can make you feel like you're in heaven..."

The girls were all talking at once, and Ouyang Lei, who was drinking, spat out his drink when he heard this.

Duan Ling was also taken aback.

After his initial shock, he looked at Lu Zhan with a look of shame, "Old Lu, you really make me feel ashamed!" He appears serious on the surface, but he's so wild and unconventional in private, and he actually likes such wild things.

Lu Zhan ignored him, his gaze sweeping over the faces of the girls one by one, before he frowned slightly.

Seeing this, Ouyang Lei quickly asked, "What's wrong? Is it not to your liking?"

Lu Zhan didn't answer him, but instead instructed the girls, "Put your left index fingers on your noses."

Duan Ling and Ouyang Lei: "..."

The two looked at each other, wondering what Old Lu was up to.
The girls looked bewildered, but they did as instructed.

Lu Zhan's gaze swept over their fingers one by one, and finally, a hint of disappointment flashed across his handsome face.

"Are there any other girls in your building?"

"No, that's all," the girls replied.

"Alright, you may all leave," Lu Zhan said calmly.

The girls looked at each other.

One of the girls, unwilling to give up, said, "Young master, we are the most uninhibited girls in Ruyi Pavilion, and our skills are also top-notch. Please let us stay and serve you."

Lu Zhan frowned and looked at Duan Ling.

This time, Duan Ling was smarter. He clutched his money pouch and said, "Why do I have to pay again?"

"I didn't bring any money," Lu Zhan said.

Duan Ling's eyes widened. "You didn't bring any money, so why are you drinking at brothels?"

"Don't you two have them?" Lu Zhan said matter-of-factly.

Duan Ling: "..."

Ouyang Lei: "..."

The two of them almost coughed up blood.

Are they his money bag or what?
"I'm leaving now, you guys have fun." Lu Zhan said, then got up and left the private room.

Duan Ling and Ouyang Lei: "..."

Coming to their senses, the two were about to leave, cursing and swearing, when the group of girls swarmed forward and poured them drinks with great hospitality.

"Young master, I respectfully greet you..."

"Young master, let me sing you a song..."

Chen Jiu, who was waiting outside the Ruyi Tower, looked surprised when he saw his young master come out.

Why did the young master leave earlier than he did yesterday when he went to Chunfeng Tower?
Since we're already here, why not stay and have some more time?
He peeked behind Lu Zhan and, sure enough, didn't see Duan Ling and Ouyang Lei.

Chen Jiu stepped forward, his tone somewhat regretful: "It's rare for the young master to come here to relax, and with Prince Duan and Young Master Ouyang accompanying him, why don't you enjoy yourself a little longer?"

Lu Zhan stopped and glanced at him indifferently. "Why don't you go inside and play for a while? I'll wait for you here."

"Alright, alright..." Chen Jiu's voice stopped abruptly, and the excitement on his face immediately froze. He reached up and wiped his face, then said with a righteous expression, "I am a respectable person, how could I possibly meddle in such a place?"

After saying that, he realized it was wrong and quickly tried to salvage the situation, saying, "Of course, I didn't mean that Your Highness is an improper person. Everyone has emotions and desires, and it's only natural for Your Highness to have needs."

"Are you done talking?" Lu Zhan looked at him with cold, dark eyes.

Chen Jiu straightened up, nodded seriously, and then asked with a straight face, "It's still early. So, will the young master return to the manor or go to the next... house?"
