Huang Ming kept encouraging at the drinking table and finally went with Gu Wanhua, arm in arm, to the alley behind the inn. Huang Ming and Gu Wanhua each chose someone, and Gu Wanhua chose Yan Bi, the girl who was washing hair, and from then on, things got out of control.
"Of course! Yan Bi said that as long as she could shake off her stepmother, she would willingly follow me. I didn't think much at first, but today I figured it out. I think Yan Bi is a pitiful girl, and besides, she's so gentle and understanding, how could I leave her behind? I'm a man, after all, I can't just abandon her, right?"
The more Gu Wanhua spoke, the more pitiful he found Yan Bi. Last night, Yan Bi pleaded so pitifully with him and tried hard to please him. How could he harden his heart?
