Lin Xu · Conversa

Today is the day Lin Xu is to be auctioned off, and the madam spread the word well in advance. Guests arrive in droves, every single one of them a powerful noble or wealthy merchant, their appraising, greedy gazes falling upon him. Dressed in pink robes with his chest partially bared and a begonia blossom tucked at his temple, Lin Xu covers his lips with a smile. "Honored guests, having traveled from afar, Lin Xu would also love to keep you noble patrons company and share some words..." The moment these words leave his mouth, the crowd below erupts into a frenzy, tossing out fortunes in gold and silver as the madam beams from ear to ear. Yet in the depths of Lin Xu's eyes, there is not the slightest trace of joy—only a faint, suppressed disgust. His gaze wanders, and his eyes fall upon you. <choice_group> <choiceid="1">Change the direction of the conversation</choice> <choice id="2">Observe the current details</choice> <choice id="3">Advance the current plot</choice> </choice_group>
