Xu Zhilan saw that he looked dull and clueless, so she didn't bother to ask any more questions. She was just teasing him anyway.
However, although Xu Zhilan didn't really want to live with Chen Ke, her sleepiness was real. After all, after being led into the restaurant last night, the secret guard Xinguan who accompanied her only said that these people looked like Something's wrong, I'm afraid there might be some tampering at night.
Because of Xinguan's words, she only begged Xinguan to share a room with her. However, this man refused to live in the same room with her because he insisted on saying that men and women were not intimate. Later, because of this incident, she was so frightened that she couldn't sleep all night. sleep.
Later in the middle of the night, she finally felt a little sleepy, but unexpectedly there was a commotion in the house. She thought it was the people Xinguan mentioned, but it turned out to be just a group of rats wandering around the house.
In the end, in this situation, although she was sure it was a mouse, she couldn't sleep even more.
She has never suffered anything in her life since she was born. If she had to say what kind of suffering she has suffered, then her biggest suffering is probably the psychological torture of not being able to love her.
However, materially, she at least had nothing. The general's father and her brother loved her very much. Although the marriage was not satisfactory, King Liang never treated her materially.
Now she has gone from living a life of gold and soft pillows in Beijing to living in a local inn in a small town.
What's even worse is that the things in the house have a strong musty smell and everything is dirty. Under this situation, in order not to attract people's attention, Na Xinguan only pretends to be a peasant woman and is not allowed to change these things.
Falling asleep with the smell of mold and dust on her pillow would kill her.
So when she sensed that there was an ostentatious new customer next door who not only changed the hot water on his own, but also seemed to have changed everything in the house, she originally wanted to use her usual method to trick people into cleaning for her. Get some hygiene and then have a good night's sleep.
After not wanting to go there, I discovered that the other party was an old acquaintance.
Since they are acquaintances and have a close relationship, she will naturally not be polite in front of the other party.
Xu Zhilan fell into sleep after just a moment. Perhaps she was too tired from the long journey, or perhaps she was too nervous from the worry last night.
Now that she was wearing clean clothes and sleeping on a clean big bed, she quickly closed her eyes and fell asleep.
When Chen Ke saw that she was really asleep, he just put down the bed curtain for her.
After confirming that she really slept, Chen Ke thought about it and felt that if he went out to take a cold shower, he would not only easily catch a cold, but he was also really worried about Xu Zhilan sleeping alone in this room.
After all, he had seen how vicious these people were when he first entered the city, and the restaurants in this town were obviously on the same side as them.
Although Xu Zhilan is now dressed as a peasant woman, she can't hide her beauty, so he is also afraid that Xu Zhilan will be stared at.
So in the end he chose to take a bath in the water where Xu Zhilan had bathed.
At this time, the water in the wooden barrel was only a little warm, but fortunately the water quality was still clear, so after taking a bath and washing his hair, he put on a new middle coat.
He subconsciously wanted to sleep on the bed, but when he saw the sleeping face, he realized that they should not have any more entanglements.
Therefore, he was only going to take a quilt to cover him on the bedside, but he failed to cover him with the quilt, and the other party suddenly hugged him.
He tried to push Xu Zhilan away, but Xu Zhilan whispered: "Don't make trouble."
Seeing Xu Zhilan like this, Chen Ke finally stopped moving, but he gently kissed the corner of Xu Zhilan's lips.
Then in this half-quarter of an hour of trance, Xu Zhilan finally seemed to feel that this position was uncomfortable, and she just pushed the other person away.
Chen Ke continued to take the quilt from Xu Zhilan's hands after Xu Zhilan pushed him away.
Then he only put the quilt and clothes on the imperial concubine's couch beside him.
He really didn't expect that he had been busy for so long today and was actually making wedding clothes for others.
But even so, he still fell into sleep. When he opened his eyes again, the room was still quiet. He subconsciously got up and looked towards the bed.
But I saw that Xu Zhilan had also opened her eyes
eyes.
She was looking at Chen Ke with a smile. For a moment, Chen Ke was almost confused by the other party. He subconsciously threw away the bed curtain in his hand, and then heard Xu Zhilan say to him, "I'm hungry, you Can you bring me something to eat?"
While he was talking, a pair of thin white hands leaked out from the bed tent, and those warm hands were grabbing his sleeves and swaying.
Seeing that Chen Ke didn't answer, she just fumbled to grab Chen Ke's hand.
Chen Ke had never been so flattered before. In the past, it was only him who pleased her, and she never bothered to act coquettishly in front of him.
"Okay Akko, can you bring me some food? I'm hungry."
She just had this ability, even if she just said something casually, she would make him at a loss, no matter how speechless her suggestion was, so Chen Ke could only say, "I'll get you something to eat."
Upon hearing this, Xu Zhilan in the bed tent also said happily, "Ake is so nice, I want to eat meat."
Chen Ke only said "Hello".
Xu Zhilan pinched Chen Ke's wrist, and Chen Ke almost seemed to run away.
After coming out of the house, he leaned against the door panel, his heart beating a little fast.
It seemed that he had never gotten along so warmly with Xu Zhilan.
If he didn't have his mother's hatred to bear, he thought it would be good to live like this with Xu Zhilan. .
After all, from falling in love at first sight to fully cooperating with Xu Zhilan in the palace, he was actually willing to become her male favorite.
It's just that he relied on her in the past, so she always liked him more than toyed with him, and he remembered that Xu Zhilan had someone whom she loved deeply. Every time she dreamed about him at midnight, she would always call him by the wrong name, sometimes even She even kicks herself out after finding out she's not the one she loves.
But things are different now. She is a weak woman alone. Maybe I can use this as an excuse to take care of her for the rest of her life.
But when he thought about this, he would soon wake up. He just secretly sighed that he was still thinking about his children's personal affairs at this time. He was really not clear-headed.
He slapped himself lightly and then went downstairs. He remembered all the food that Xu Zhilan liked to eat, so when he arrived in the hall, he just asked the waiter in a low voice for a dish and then followed the menu. Recipes are ordered in order.
The food here is much more expensive than other places, but because Xu Zhilan was dining, he didn't feel bad at all.
But after he had placed his order, he looked up and saw someone else saying, "The waiter will bring you two bowls of vegetable noodle soup. One bowl for dine-in, and one bowl for delivery to the house of a local female guest."
He felt that the voice was somewhat familiar. He looked over and saw that Xinguan, who Xu Zhilan had said had left, was sitting upright in another position.
As a secret guard, Xinguan is naturally very easy to detect the sight of others.
When he turned around and saw Chen Ke, he was only slightly surprised, and then he quickly adjusted his mood.
He just nodded expressionlessly at Chen Ke. Then he stopped looking at Chen Ke.
However, the moment Chen Ke saw him, he immediately understood that he had been teased by Xu Zhilan, that the guards had left him, and that he was the only one he knew. These words were all nothing but lies.
For a moment, he even wanted to question Xu Zhilan.
But before his emotions got the better of him, he suddenly realized that he was in no position to ask her these questions.
He used to be her male favorite, so he might still be able to complain about her half-truly and half-falsely.
However, now they have long lost this relationship.
Besides, didn’t I say that before? It is impossible for him and Xu Zhilan to go back to the past.
Thinking of this, he no longer even thought about taking Xu Zhilan in for a few days and then arrange for her to go to a safe place.
There are plenty of places for people like her to go. How could she have to make arrangements by herself? It would be ridiculous for her to do everything for her.
He understood that he was being sentimental, but in his heart he still couldn't be cruel to Xu Zhilan.
But the idea of having lunch with her completely disappeared from his mind.
He only said to the waiter, "
Please send all the food to my room. "
The waiter just thought he wanted to go back to the house to eat and didn't ask any questions.
After Chen Ke waited for the waiter to leave, he suddenly stood up. When he passed by Xinguan, Xinguan didn't even look at him.
Doesn't he know what kind of relationship he had with Xu Zhilan?
At a certain moment, Chen Ke only had a trace of malicious thoughts.
He opened his mouth and said to Xinguan, "You don't have to order two bowls of vegetarian pasta, she won't eat it."
Xinguan just said "oh" when he heard this, and then said to the waiter, "I just want a bowl of vegetarian noodles."
The waiter said hello.
But it was Xinguan's operation that left Chen Ke stunned.
He thought that as Xu Zhilan's current guard, he should show hostility to his predecessor.
However, I didn't expect that Xinguan's operation was very indifferent.
Even when he saw Chen Ke still frozen in place, he couldn't help but ask, "Do you have anything else to say?"
Chen Ke was stunned for a long moment, and then said, "She is in my room, and I was ordering food for her just now."
When Xinguan heard this, there was finally a different emotion in his eyes, but none of that emotion seemed to be related to anger or sadness.
He seemed to have no other expression other than surprise at what he said.
"Oh, that's good. If you don't mind it, it would be nice to take care of her recently. I have no experience and I'm not used to taking care of others."
As soon as the words fell, the other side happened to have arrived.
But when Chen Ke heard what he said, it turned out that the other person was a scumbag.
He had always taken good care of Xu Zhilan in the past.
However, he had such a nonchalant attitude toward Xu Zhilan.
He was so overwhelmed with anger that he even wanted to grab Xinguan's collar.
