Zhan Xiaolou leaned into Ning Yu's ear as if she was whispering something into her ear. "There's someone following behind you. Don't look behind you. And you should be pretending to be happy and laugh."
She didn't want the people behind her to know of his existence, so she was very nervous.
Ning Yu nodded her head and faked a smile. "Haha, what you said was really interesting. I was about to go crazy with laughter."
"…" Zhan Xiaolou was regretting his decision. If he had been wrong, it should have been more natural not to say anything. This fool didn't know how to pretend. When she saw Ning Yu giggling, the image of a clown surfaced in her mind.
Well, although it's not the same.
"Let's go to that shop and take a look. It looks pretty delicious." The Battle Tower caught a glimpse of a nearby store. Surprisingly, it was a tavern. It happily pulled Ning Yu along as it prepared to enter.
This was because most taverns had a back door, which prevented some customers from vomiting too much through the front door. This would ruin the store's reputation, even though it was only a tavern, it was normal for them to get drunk.
"Alright, I haven't had any peach blossom wine for a long time. I wonder if there is any here!" Ning Yu followed Zhan Xiaoluo as she walked back to the building, full of anticipation.
As Zhan Xiaolou had specifically made Ning Yu come in contact with the wine, Ning Yu had also turned into a vat of wine. Although he couldn't drink strong alcohol, it was more fragrant and he couldn't control himself at all. This could be considered as him bumping into someone in his arms, and he just so happened to be relieving himself of the alcohol.
The people behind saw where they went in, and since they didn't want to be seen by the others, they stopped and waited for them to come out.
As soon as Zhan Xiaolou and Ning Yu entered, they saw a completely different scene. The people in the taverns around them were all talking at a high pitch. The place was as quiet as a teahouse, with not a single person in sight.
"Is this really a tavern?" Ning Yu also looked around, puzzled. She wasn't too sure that this was a tavern.
"Do you two want to buy wine or drink wine?" A woman appeared out of nowhere. Her figure was graceful and her voice was crisp and clear, but her face was covered by a veil.
Zhan Xiaolou found it strange. Not only this person, but more importantly, this place had a feeling. It was as if this place didn't belong to this society, this land.
"We'll buy some wine and borrow some for the trip. May I ask if you can help us?" Zhan Xiaolou calmly looked at the woman, not showing any surprise or fear.
The woman was also quite puzzled when she saw Zhan Xiaolou's reaction. Ordinary people like Jiang Yu or people from other countries would have their mouths wide open in disbelief if they came here for the first time.
This was the world where women ruled. All women were part of the heavens, while men were their accessories. In the middle of this shop stood a man, while women were dancing. Of course, this sculpture didn't mean anything. It was just a work of art, but for a society where women were treated with respect, it was not allowed.
Besides, the main service of this store was provided by women, while the managers were all men. In the eyes of many people, women were belittled. Some people even felt that this was definitely a store owned by a man, wanting to vent their anger.
Therefore, many women would not bring their friends here. If they wanted to isolate this shop, it was because they didn't want to see it with their own eyes.
However, the place where the shop was located was not too good. A few men would often come up to pour gold on it. They were all rich people, so the shop never collapsed.
