It seems that you are not honest

Wind and Moon establishments are undoubtedly the places men like to go the most. With a swift movement, Baili Hongzhuang followed closely behind the man.

After the man walked into the room, embracing a courtesan, Baili Hongzhuang also revealed her presence.

The man became somewhat flustered upon seeing Baili Hongzhuang's appearance. "H-How did you appear here?"

As expected, there's a problem!

Baili Hongzhuang raised an eyebrow, a faint smile playing at the corners of her lips. "Why do you look so afraid when you see me?"

The man was taken aback, quickly composing himself. "I-I'm just surprised by your sudden appearance. We've finished our transaction, so why have you come looking for me?"

"What's the identity of that Green Luó? Be honest."

Baili Hongzhuang walked up to the man, looking down at him with an arrogant expression.

"He's just a woman I bought. He doesn't have any special identity."

"It seems you're not being honest."

Baili Hongzhuang wasn't surprised by the man's attitude. Some people never show remorse until they face a crisis.

In the next moment, Baili Hongzhuang grabbed the man's neck, lifting him up in front of the astonished gazes of the man and the woman.

Although the man had a robust physique, he was just an ordinary person. He had no ability to resist in front of her.

"I'll give you three seconds. Either tell the truth or die!"

Baili Hongzhuang's eyes turned icy. She hated it when someone schemed against her from behind. No matter who it was, she wouldn't let them go!

The man's face quickly turned red. No matter how much he struggled, it was futile.

He felt the air being gradually sucked away, and looking into the indifferent gaze of the woman before him, he had no doubt that she would truly kill him if he didn't speak the truth.

Thinking of this, the man couldn't help but shudder. He quickly said, "I'll talk, I'll talk!"

Baili Hongzhuang saw the fear in the man's eyes with just one glance. Believing that he wouldn't dare lie, she released her grip.

The man immediately fell to the ground, gasping for breath greedily, desperately taking in the air. He had nearly died!

Looking at Baili Hongzhuang again, the man's eyes filled with profound fear.

"Speak!"

Just a simple word, but it shook the man's mind. He didn't dare to hide anything and quickly revealed everything he knew.

"Miss, I'm innocent! I didn't do anything! Someone approached me today and asked me to play this role. I don't even know who that Green Luó really is!"

The man knelt before Baili Hongzhuang, his usual business involving petty theft. Today, someone had approached him, promising a generous reward for playing this role. Being tempted by money, he readily agreed!

Moreover, the woman in white had even given him five hundred gold coins. It was like a pie falling from the sky!

That was why he came happily to the Qinghong Tower with his money pouch. He never expected to be caught by this young lady and almost lose his life.

If only he had known, he wouldn't have agreed in the first place. There really are no free lunches in this world.

After listening to the man's account, Baili Hongzhuang understood. It seemed her speculation was correct. This was a well-orchestrated scheme.

However, Green Luó's acting skills were truly remarkable. If she didn't have her past life's experiences and was merely a sixteen-year-old girl, she might have been easily deceived.
