A young teen dressed in a male hanfu with a bamboo hat attached on his head walked in the busy capital market.

"𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐠 𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐬, 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐬𝐢𝐜𝐤 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞𝐧'𝐭 𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐝, 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐝𝐨𝐧'𝐭 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐰𝐚𝐲 𝐚𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐤𝐞𝐭 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐟 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐠𝐞𝐭 𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐭"

The distressed maid also dressed in male attire said behind him while gasping for breath.

"𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭'𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐨𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐡"he said carelessly.

"𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐞 𝐰𝐚𝐥𝐤 𝐢𝐧 𝐚 𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢 𝐰𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝𝐧'𝐭 𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮"the maid cried without tears.

"𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐫𝐲 𝐭𝐨𝐨 𝐦𝐮𝐜𝐡"he said in an almost laughing tone.

"𝐚𝐡, 𝐢 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐠𝐨𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐥 𝐲𝐨𝐮, 𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐰𝐞 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐞,𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐜𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐦𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐠 𝐦𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐤𝐚𝐲"he said turning sideways slightly.

"𝐲𝐞𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐠 𝐦𝐢𝐬-𝐦𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫"

Qi-shan thought as he looked around,the traders and customers haggling prices of goods, shelves with different goods on display.

Walking ahead is the brothel where men came out of with beautiful girls with makeup bidding them farewell, there were also beautiful girls at the top balcony calling out to passerbys frivolously.

Still walking he encountered different business establishments.

Qi-shan was amazed by the novelty of it all while the system who have almost malfunctioned while reminding him about his tasks repeatedly  during his tour said in panic.

"𝐡𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐧'𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐠𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨 𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐝 𝐚 𝐜𝐚𝐩𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐠𝐞𝐭?"

"𝐢 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥"he said carelessly.

The system finally played dead after some silence, sensing it's silence he stopped teasing it.

" 𝐢 𝐚𝐦 𝐝𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐦𝐲 𝐭𝐚𝐬𝐤𝐬 𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐥𝐲 𝐚𝐡, 𝐛𝐮𝐭 𝐢 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞𝐧'𝐭 𝐬𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐚 𝐬𝐮𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐞𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐞, 𝐢 𝐜𝐚𝐧'𝐭 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐬𝐞𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐲𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐥𝐝 𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭 𝐫𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭?"

He said while entering a restaurant, a boy hurriedly came to attend to him, took him to a seat where he sat together with his maid and ordered tea and some snacks.

Meanwhile in a private room in the restaurant, two men are sitting opposite each other, one wearing green and the other wearing black.
