    Although everyone had the same 5 facial features, but just a glance at such perfect facial features that were matched together would make you feel that it was stunning.  Looking again at that pair of eyes, she felt she would fall deep inside, and the more she looked, the better it looked. Those eyebrows, shaped like the mountains, and eyes, like a hot spring, were matched together flawlessly. Her distinctly black and white eyeballs, expressing melancholy and affection, resembled the countless stars in the sky; just a look and people will get trapped inside. Her nose was tall, and her thin lips were like ice, as if expressing sorrow or loneliness. 

    The three thousand black hairs naturally hung down, and the slanting fringes of hair in front of the forehead covered her eyebrow on one side. The long hair by her ear was pulled back behind the head, revealing half of the ears, and the black hair highlighted her flawless and bright skin.

    Looking down, the piece of red dress was beautiful and moving. 

    Just like the ‘invincible East' (Dong Fang Bu Bai) in the TV series, having a gender-neutral temperament. If it's as a woman, the appearance looked too strong-willed, and if it's as a man, it was too seductive. 

    But combined, it became perfect and impeccable. As expected, Miss Jiu did not let her reputation down. 

    “Aiya, you are bleeding.” Feng Xi er exclaimed as she saw a slight mark on Miss Jiu's wrist. 

    “It's nothing, it's just a small injury”, Miss Jiu did not think much of it.

    Feng Xi Er touched her waist and pulled out her face cloth. She leaned over and took Miss Jiu's wrist, gently bandaging it. Can't say why, but she had a very strange feeling towards this Miss Jiu. Although it was their first time meeting, but she had an inexplicable familiarity to her. 

    Perhaps she has the same melancholic and sentimental look in her eyes as Ah Jiu? 

    After tying a ribbon, Feng Xi Er stood up straight, but she staggered, and accidentally fell to the ground, her hands inadvertently touching the girl's lower body. She touched a soft and hard thing and Feng Xi er body's trembled. A stream of electricity ran through her, and she opened her eyes wide, pointing her finger towards Hong Jiu. Her finger trembled as she opened her mouth, stuttering: "You, you, you,… you are a male?" 

    Things are not looking good, according to the TV series' usual routine, those who know the secret will be killed. Oh no, this is bad. Feng Xi Er secretly prepared to escape. 

    However, the result went beyond Feng Xi Er's expectations. 

    Feng Xi Er's angry fist slammed on the table, furiously crying out: "Really, worse than a beast". 

    Just before as Feng Xi Er was ready to escape, Hong Jiu told her about his life story. 

    It turned out that Hong Jiu was the ninth son in his family. Because there was no way to raise him, he was sold to the Jiuzhong Building by his father when he was 10 years old and had no choice but to dress up as a woman to make money for the brothel owner. 

    Feng Xi er asked Hong Jiu: “Do you hate your father?” 

    Hong Jiu suddenly looked out the window, and calmly said: “Hate? He is already dead.” Long since his father abandoned his mother, he already treated his father as dead.

    Feng Xi Er looked at Hong Jiu's pair of black star-like eyes; although calm, but Feng Xi er felt the loneliness and melancholy in them. She suddenly remembered Ah Jiu. Didn't know if jiu was upset after she left and without her companionship, would he be very lonely? 

    A cold wind came from the window; the night was getting darker, and the wind was getting bigger. Feng Xi Er came to herself and thought of Xiao Tu Dou. She didn't know if that girl reached safely back to the residence yet?

    “Uh, I have to go,” Feng Xi Er said. Hong Jiu nodded and Feng Xi Er turned to leave. 

    Suddenly remembering something, Feng Xi Er turned and walked back to the front of Hong Jiu. She took out all her silver and handed it to him, “Take these silvers first”. She thought of something again, and reached out to touch the slingshot at her waist to put it in the palm of his hand, saying: “Take this slingshot, too, to defend yourself.” 

    She turned and walkedd to the door. Suddenly, thinking of something again, she turned back and said to Hong Jiu: "My name is Ah Xi, you can be rest assured, I will keep your secret". She added a sentence: "See you again, Ah Jiu".

 
    After Feng Xi er left, Hong Jiu looked at the slingshot in his hand for a long time before recovering.
