Chapter 387: Courtesan Contest (7)_1

Just as she was about to go back to her tent, the host stopped her. Smiling, he said, "Lady, you are decidedly a favourite. Now that you're the Flower Queen, you're not allowed to just leave like this. Later, you'll have to parade around the city."

Nan Feng tried to explain calmly, "I am here to deliver goods, not a member of your brothel. I am sorry my unexpected interruption was an oversight; I have other matters to attend to, and I have to go."

"Ah, you can't leave. Our competition rules dictate that the one who receives the most roses is the Flower Queen – regardless of where you come from. Once you have taken on the title today, you have to commit to our ceremonial rituals," the host insisted firmly.

"That's not fair! I've already explained that I'm merely delivering goods; how can you force me to stay here and treat me unjustly? I don't want to be any Flower Queen, you should rechoose. I regret to decline the invitation."
