"What are you doing, Xi Ming?" Ye Jin asked, though she knew the answer herself.
As soon as Xi Ming had walked into the chamber, the strong smell of blood wafting from him but her nose, and she had woken up, quite embarrassed that she had actually ended up sleeping on his bed.
Originally, Xi Ming said he was leaving for a while and that she should rest, but instead, she had gone through the scroll they'd obtained, and after holding it over the fire, she had managed to unravel its contents. It was essentially a contract between the Qian Yu Auction House and the Jin Yuan Brothel; however, its contents were quite unclear. She had intended to reveal her findings to Xi Ming but had gotten drowsy and eventually fallen asleep.
Ye Jin watched as Xi Ming's face flashed with fear and then acceptance.
