Xi Jin followed Xie Luo, led by the steward, and went up to the second floor through the back door, avoiding the crowd.
"Thank you, Mr. Ma. I received a letter from shopkeeper Ma a while ago, so I'm really looking forward to seeing you!" The steward said respectfully while leading the way, bending down.
"Lao Xiao is in charge." Xie Luo nodded in thanks.
"Xie Dongjia, please don't say that. It's my honor for all of us brothers to serve you." Manager Xiao looked at Xie Luo with a look of reverence, "I have one more thing I want to discuss with you. look……"
Xi Jin realized that he was not suitable to be there, so he said to Xie Luo, "I'll go in and wash up and rest first."
"Okay, you should rest early. There are people watching outside, so don't be afraid!"
"Yeah." In fact, along the way, Xi Jin also faintly noticed that Xie Luo was unusual.
Every time they encountered an inn, they could rest in their rooms without any scruples, but were never discovered.
Xi Jin didn't believe it if everyone else was in a deep sleep. Maybe Xie Luo's identity was not as simple as she thought.
But Xi Jin had no intention of delving into it. After all, the two of them were not a couple who wanted to grow old together. She had no qualifications or willingness to interfere with Xie Luo's affairs.
Perhaps he was prepared this time. The room provided by Manager Xiao was more comprehensive than last time, and he even prepared rouge and gouache in front of the dressing table.
Xi Jin was relieved of his fatigue and was about to take a shower when the window facing the street was suddenly opened from the outside. Xi Jin was startled.
Seeing the bearded face of the visitor, a pair of piercing black eyes looked at Xi Jin, and tried his best to silence her: "Mrs. Sister-in-law, Mrs. Sister-in-law, don't be afraid, it's me, Li Sanshou."
"Li Sanshou, how did you get up here?" Since Xi Jin cured Big Beard, he has developed some friendship with him.
Big Beard's temperament is different from his rough appearance, but he is actually a simple and honest person. Whenever he sees something good along the way, he will send it to Xi Jin.
Xi Jin refused several times, but still couldn't shirk his enthusiasm.
"What's it this time?" Xi Jin looked at him helplessly.
I saw him scratching his hair coquettishly, reaching out and handing out a delicate box: "Madam, don't be angry, you are already very beautiful, but I see you look a little bad, they said this is useful good."
Xi Jin took the powder from the bearded hand: "Where did you get this?"
"Madam, don't worry, I didn't steal this. Anyway, you can use it without worry."
"No, someone is coming!" The bearded man turned around and jumped out of the back window without saying a word.
At this time, Xie Luo opened the window and came in: "I seemed to hear a sound in the room just now. Are you okay?"
"It's okay." Xi Jin pinched the powder in his hand and looked at Xie Luo, "Do you think I'm ugly?"
"How could it be?" Xie Luo was confused. Jin'er's appearance was one of the best not only in this small Liuzhou City, but also in Beijing. How could she think she was ugly?
Xi Jin spread out the powder on his hand: "Here, I just brought it from Big Beard."
Xie Luo looked at the thing in her hand and couldn't help laughing: "This bearded man is really stubborn."
"I think he is honest enough." Xi Jin put the powder on the table, "I'm going to wash up first."
"Jin'er." Xie Luo said, "Don't you want to ask me, what did Manager Xiao want to do with me just now?"
"If you are willing to tell me, I will listen." Xi Jin replied seriously, "If it is your private matter, I will never pry."
"Jin'er, I can't tell you now. I will tell you the truth when the time comes."
"Okay, I will definitely listen attentively!" Xi Jin responded with a smile.
At this time, there was a burst of footsteps outside the door, and then a familiar voice sounded.
"Miss Lin, Mr. Huang specifically asked you to sleep in this room tonight."
"Thank you, Mr. Huang, for me." Lin Churou raised her eyes and looked at the room Huang Yong had prepared for herself. It was clean and tidy, but it was a pity that Huang Yong only let herself go upstairs. If she asked, it should be given to her mother and her family. They all arrange rooms like this.
"You go and wash up. I'll be here to guard you. No one will come in and see you." Xie Luo comforted Xi Jin.
Xi Jin nodded. She had not washed or bathed properly for several days.
Even though he knew Lin Churou was in the next room, he still couldn't help but take a bath and felt much better.
As soon as Xi Jin came out after washing up, he saw the table full of delicious food and couldn't help but twitch his index finger.
"Thank you for your blessing, my boss." Xi Jin smiled.
Xie Luo gave her a piece of meat: "Jin'er, I will work hard to get out of prison and return to Beijing as soon as possible!"
Xi Jin tried his best to ignore the burning emotion in his eyes and smiled lightly: "I will definitely do it!"
That night, with plenty of food and wine, Xi Jin slept very peacefully. Just as she was immersed in sleep, there was a sudden noise from the next room.
Hearing the sound, Xie Luo quickly sat up from the couch and walked to Xi Jin's side: "Jin'er, don't be afraid, I'm here!"
"Huang Yong, what are you going to do?" Lin Churou's panicked voice came from the next room.
"What are you doing, what do you think I'm going to do?" Huang Yong's treacherous voice came, with a hint of drunkenness, "I've been serving you for so many days, it's time for you to serve me."
"Huang Yong, you are so presumptuous, do you know who I am?" Lin Churou's voice was still full of arrogance, and then there was a slap.
"I don't care who you are, but I forgot to tell you that your father Lin Shangshu has been beheaded." Huang Yong said with a cruel smile.
"No, it's impossible, you lied to me...let me go!"
What followed was the sound of broken clothes, accompanied by Lin Churou's painful screams and calls for help.
But it is obvious that everyone has the attitude of doing more things than doing less things when they go out. Even if they hear something strange, no one will care about it.
And Xi Jin will not meddle in Lin Churou's business.
Time passed slowly, and Lin Churou's voice gradually became hoarse.
What followed was the man's heavy breathing and the sound of constant whipping: "Smelly bitch, it tastes pretty good."
After hearing this, Xie Luo quickly covered Xi Jin's ears: "Jin'er, don't listen to this."
"Yeah." Although Xi Jin was inexperienced, he knew a lot, but at this moment, Xie Luo's generous and warm hands covered his ears, and his whole body felt an inexplicable throbbing.
Seeing Xi Jin's red face, Xie Luo quickly let go of his hand and said with a dry mouth: "Go to sleep!"
"Yeah." Xi Jin felt ashamed, covered his ears and hid in bed.
That night, Huang Yong struggled for a long time and didn't stop until midnight.
Xi Jin turned over and sighed, finally able to sleep.
Drowsily, Xi Jin heard Xie Luo's voice: "Jin'er, not all men are like this."
Xi Jin covered herself in the quilt, and the heat that had just subsided surged into her heart again.
Xie Luo... Is he afraid that he will have a shadow on this matter?
"I know." Xi Jin responded softly, but his mind suddenly buzzed as to what on earth he was talking about.
At this moment, Xie Luo, who was sleeping on the couch nearby, was not much better. His whole body was occupied by an inexplicable feeling, and he didn't slowly fall asleep until dawn...
