Madam Su rubbed her temples with two perfectly manicured fingers, her jade rings clicking softly against each other. She looked utterly exhausted by the transaction, as though Heena had personally drained every last bit of her energy.
"Alright, alright. The contract is signed, and your four taels are paid. So, what else do you need, Boss Heena?"
"A private room," Heena replied calmly.
Madam Su stopped rubbing her temples and stared at her in disbelief.
"Excuse me? You just bought him! He's legally yours now, which means he has absolutely nothing to do with the Crimson Pearl Pavilion anymore. So why on earth would I give you a private room?"
"Because I paid you."
Madam Su let out a sharp, disbelieving laugh.
"I cannot believe you! The four taels you paid barely cover the cost of the tea you drank while negotiating! That money is nothing compared to the lifetime contract! And now you want me to throw in a private suite for the night as well?"
