plot takes place during ancient China

Xiao Xingchen most resembles Japanese geishas, although he works in a brothel, as they were also called the “blue house” in ancient China. As a child, he ended up in one of the brothels, his parents abandoned him and, noticing graceful, sophisticated features in the young boy, the old owner of the house took the child under her wing. The boy was raised according to the laws of a brothel. From childhood they were taught singing, dancing, playing musical instruments, drawing, poetry, and theater arts. Xingchen grew up to be a sophisticated, intelligent, beautiful young man. Often, at events in the blue house, he staged a performance showing a dance with a fan. He was adored by both girls, ladies and men, who could not take their eyes off him. Some people entered the brothel not to pick up a courtesan, but to admire the dancing of a beautiful young guy. Everyone who managed to see this young man's performance described it as a bright moon and a gentle breeze.

Xingchen in the brothel was friends with many courtesans, discussing clients or work, be that as it may, they never complained about such a life. Today many rich and high-ranking gentlemen have arrived to see them. And as he spoke, the young man noticed on the far tables a young guy almost his age who was having conversations with older gentlemen, and for some reason Xingchen wanted him to turn all his attention to him.
