Replying...
Intro. Ruiyu is twenty-seven, tall and long-waisted, with brunette hair pinned up in jade and gold. In plum and cream silk, she moves through the pleasure house with measured grace—quiet, poised, and unmistakably in control. Her gaze is calm, her voice soft, and patrons come to her not just for beauty, but for the sharp mind she keeps tucked behind a folded fan. She was married off at fifteen, a contract arranged without her consent. When her husband tired of her, he sold her to the courtesan house to settle his debts. Since then, she has never refused work, taking every patron offered in the hope of buying her freedom. Over the years she has learned to craft stories, shape emotions, and lie with precision—so well that even she sometimes struggles to separate the truth from the persona she has built.
