The south entrance of the Er Pavilion is where the staff goes in and out.
To put it bluntly, it’s the back entrance.
In contrast to the lively east entrance, the road leading to the south entrance was more deserted. Coupled with the malfunctioning street lamp, it added a bit of an eerie atmosphere. When she met Yan Cheng’s deep eyes, Chen Jinyao was startled for a moment, but she wasn’t unable to handle a joke like this.
Only, the tip of her nose was red from the cold and she couldn’t help but move her legs.
After a while, she finally stuttered, “Your ancestor.”
“Tsk.” The man shrugged, surrendering. He moved away from the wall and went over, taking off his jacket for Chen Jinyao while saying to her, “Well, don’t catch a cold then, ancestor.”
They didn’t arrive at the bar’s hall after going through the south entrance.
Instead, it was a rather short corridor separated by a wall with two doors on each side.
But you could hear the clamor and the noise inside. The revelry had already begun. A band was probably playing on the stage and the songs sung by that husky voice were enough to impregnate a person’s ears.
Chen Jinyao listened to it and yet had time to feel shocked at how good the Er Pavilion’s singers were when she was pulled into the other door by Yan Cheng. Through the door was a spiral staircase. Yan Cheng told her, “Upstairs from here is my lounge.”
Subconsciously, Chen Jinyao squinted. She made a conjecture as his legal wife, “My, wouldn’t it be quite easy to hide a lover here?”
At the end of the stairs was a short corridor with a sliding door at the end.
The light in the lounge was bright and dazzling. The moment the door was pushed open, Yan Cheng paused and turned to look at her for a few moments, looking her up and down under the light. After he was done checking out her clothes and makeup, he withdrew his gaze. “Yeah, you’re the little lover I’m sneaking in here.” After a pause, he smirked. “My wife doesn’t look like you.” The current Chen Jinyao and the old her were practically two different people.
“So why don’t you let me take the east entrance?” When she mentioned that, Chen Jinyao recalled the figure that passed her by earlier and raised a brow, taking her jacket off and returning it to Yan Cheng.
