"So that's the way it is..." Xin Chen nodded, "This is right up your alley, isn't it."
"Yeah, you could say I'm excited," Gu Tao said as he stood up and paced around the room. "No way, I must meet this anti-social mastermind, the Master of White Lotus Sect!"
Once Gu Tao had calmed down, he sat back on his chair and, looking at the bewildered Cuilan, asked with a smile, "So, was your mission from your leader to woo high-ranking officials at any cost by sending them mistresses and into their tender embraces? If I'm not mistaken, you must also be quite notorious in Chang'an City, right?"
Cuilan slightly turned her head away, not answering, but her expression said it all.
"You must be wondering why the aphrodisiac incense, the seductive songs you practiced so hard, and your pale breasts haven't managed to attract us," Gu Tao said with a laugh, legs crossed. "Thinking that we came prepared?"
She didn't respond directly, but countered, "Please enlighten me."
