As Su Mi was leaving Jong Hyun called out " oh, you have fifteen days to do that" nodding her head she left the room and walked up to waiting Na-bi. Together they made their way to the Faa Hua brothel.
Su Mi's mind was whirling all around her and as she entered inside the brothel, she discreetly made her way to her room to change her appearance back to normal and Na-bi stayed outside. So, that people spying would not connect them together. After this she moved to Lin Hua's room and knocked politely, waiting for Lin Hua to call her inside.
Though she didn't have to but she did all this to prevent suspicion from other people in brothel as it was watched by many women all the time.
Lin Hua who was checking the account, called the person inside when she saw Su Mi her back went rigid. Since the first day they met she realised she had innate fear for her because she could make her do anything with her mind magic.
She was a deeply superstitious person and seeing Su Mi's power she believed she must have learnt foreign magic tricks and that fear of unknown made her avoid Su Mi at all cost. Though she brought Na-bi to have normal life and her mind magic made people forget that Na-bi even existed inside the brothel.
Yes, she was grateful but she was also fearful of Su Mi. So, her best effort was to avoid her and report anything suspicious to her superior. Though she has not told anyone about the magic because she knew no one would believe her about that.
Su Mi calmly sat on the chair in front of Lin Hua " your fear is leaving a bitter taste in my mouth. So, before our conversation let me assure you unless it's about me and my people's safety I won't use mind trick on you because gaining this distrust from your side will only cause more trouble for me. I just wish for few things".
Lin Hua felt her spine relaxing a little which earned her a nod from Su Mi, she also responded with a nod for letting her continue and state her terms.
Su Mi said " you won't spy on my matters.I will only service crown prince and he will visit this place twice a month on fifteenth and the last day of each month other then that I am allowed to come and go freely and if anyone asks just answer that crown prince don't share his woman and I am exclusive for him. I should be given wages what every top courtesan gains every month. If it's ok I want to work with those terms with you. Are you willing".
Lin Hua thought for a while, what Su Mi proposed was not hard to accept. As she served crown prince she too could not send her to other person's bed that would be disrespect to him and being crown prince woman she deserved title of top courtesan, lastly even if she rejected with her mind tricks shs was unstoppable and even impossible to spy on. With no choice she preferred to keep her distance from her and in her heart she treated Su Mi as her ancestor who was here just to torment her. So, she took no time accepting the wishes.
Satisfied Su Mi smiled went back to Na-bi who had come back and was waiting for her in her room. Na-bi bowed waiting for her next order. Su Mi looked herself on the mirror and told Na-bi " arrange me twelve year old errand boy clothes and pack me a bag with necessity and don't put anything that is specifically used for women pack everything that a men could use".
Confused Na-bi did that. In a while Su Mi looked like young boy with a pack on her back. Smiling she brought Na-bi to her chair in front of dressing table " these days while I am gone, you will pretend to be me and stay in this room, your figure is similar to mine and if anyone comes keep the heavy curtain in between you and the person and use any tricks possible to not get caught.There is a dressmaker's shop near the end of this block. It is closed down now. If you have any message leave a letter inside blue box that is placed below the counter and I will reply to you as needed and crown prince will come here on fifteenth now and today is second, if he comes early send message in the Long Jian tea shop".
With that Su Mi entered the palace as errand boy Su Chen.
