It had been 3 days since Xiao Jun arrived in Luo Yang and people were so nice to her. Even the girls couldn't resist her.

"Young Master! Come inside! Come! Come!" a woman smiled, her waist swayed and she grabbed onto Xiao Jun's arm, pulling her inside a fragrant building that was bustling with men and the sounds of laughing and giggling.

'A brothel?!'

Xiao Jun's eyes widened and she looked around. Never in her life had she been inside a brothel nor has she even seen one. All the brothels in Suo were kept in the red light district and they were strictly placed away from the city as to prevent children and curious teens out of it.

A young girl was pushed towards Xiao Jun and she caught her, making the young girl's eyes widen and she glared when they came into contact.

'Heavens! Such a fierce look..'

"You! Are you stupid? Scram!" the Madam exclaimed, pushing the girl away from Xiao Jun.

Frowning, Xiao Jun looked at the Madam and spoke, "Madam, I want that girl to serve me in private."

The Madam laughed a little and caressed Xiao Jun's face, "Young Master, Mei'er here couldn't possibly serve you. She is inexperienced and can only play the guzheng[1]."

Xiao Jun shot her a glare, "Did I say I was here to do that? I merely want some entertainment. Hurry!" she put a few silver ingots in the Madam's hand along with a pearl necklace that she had found.

Quickly, the Madam nodded at the sight of money and directed the girl called Mei'er into a room with Xiao Jun.

"Serve him well! You're lucky that this Young Master has taken a liking to you." the Madam frowned, she shut the door and left, the little bell on her waist ringing as her hips swayed.

Xiao Jun sat at the table and looked Mei'er up and down. "You are Mei'er, right? How old?"

Mei'er looked up with a cold look that had a fire burning inside and replied, "This servant's name is indeed Mei'er. Mei'er is 13 this year.."

'13?! Isn't that too cruel to send a child to work in a brothel?!'

"Where are your parents?"

Mei'er's eyes widened when she heard the question, "My parents...have passed away."

Nodding, Xiao Jun took a sip of the fragrant wine.

"Would you like to come with me?" Xiao Jun looked at her, a glint of sincerity and warmth in her eyes as she kept a cold face.

Mei'er looked at the pretty looking Xiao Jun and hesitantly nodded, with a wave of her hand, Xiao Jun beckoned her over and when the girl was finally standing in front of her, Xiao Jun let the hair pin in her hair out and her hair flowed down around her.

"Fix my hair for me with a ribbon, you can have the hairpin."

Mei'er stared at the hairpin and upon closer inspection, it was a woman's hair accessory.

Standing behind her, Mei'er began to brush Xiao Jun's hair and twisted it up into a bun before tying it with a white ribbon that was similar in color with her attire.

"Young Master...why do you have a woman's hairpin?" Mei'er asked, voice small and quiet as she warily asked.

"Woman's hairpin? Isn't it normal for a woman to have a woman's hairpin?" Xiao Jun answered, a playful smile playing on her face.

Pausing in her actions, Mei'er looked at the hairpin and and then at her master who was now smiling.

"W-woman?! Y-you aren't a male?" Mei'er exclaimed, a look of relief on her face.

Xiao Jun laughed and shook her head, "Of course I'm not male. Now, keep this a secret alright? I hide my identity as a girl to protect myself from men."

Quickly bobbing her head, Mei'er smiled and she played the guzheng whilst in a happy mood. Xiao Jun was also put into a happy mood because of the cheerful playing from the girl.

Mei'er walked beside Xiao Jun in a purple outfit and the two appeared to be a couple to others but Xiao Jun's indifferent look to her changed their thoughts.

'Probably siblings..'

At the inn, Xiao Jun asked for another room right next to hers for her 'sister' and the innkeeper happily obliged.

"Mei'er, would you like to learn martial arts?" Xiao Jun asked, cup in her hands as she looked at the girl who was eating as if she hadn't eaten a meal in ages.

Mei'er looked up and gave a stern nod. Before she had ended up in the brothel, she had come from a martial arts family.

"I already know some martial arts.. I want to learn how to weld a sword."

With an amused look, Xiao Jun liked the determined look the girl had and then nodded. "We'll be leaving to the capital tomorrow morning so I'll teach you when we arrive at a decent spot while traveling."

Who knew that her trip to Luoyang would get her a little sister.
