The person upstairs nodded when he saw the thin man’s actions. He turned around and walked to a superior room at the end of the corridor. He gently knocked on the door and waited a while before entering the room.
“Take these away!”
After the skinny man left, Su Qing pointed at the cups and plates on the table and ordered the waiter. The waiter secretly heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Su Qing had no intention of questioning the food. The shopkeeper was even more cunning. He had a smile on his face and did not have any intention of blaming himself. He cupped his hands at Su Qing and said,
“You should rest. You’re exhausted. Go to bed early.”
“Yes.”
” Mm.”
Su Qing faintly nodded. She could only see uneasiness in the eyes of the shopkeeper and the waiter while the thin man’s eyes were filled with observation and calculation. The person who drugged them was the thin man.
Su Qing watched the shopkeeper leave and pulled the waiter who was clearing the table to ask him in a low voice,
“Who else touched the vegetables when you sent them over just now?”
“Ah? No…”
The waiter thought that Su Qing would pursue the matter and was so scared that he was incoherent.
“I know it wasn’t you.”
Su Qing reassured him. The waiter was no longer afraid when he saw that Su Qing was not pursuing him. He lowered his voice and replied,
“Just now, when I brought the dishes over, that thin man took them.”
Su Qing confirmed her guess and nodded.
“Alright, you can leave now!”
After the waiter left, Zhong Yong and Little Ding surrounded her.
“Master, I’ll go beat them to death!”
Zhong Yong hated the thin man for plotting against them and wanted to use a hammer to smash him to death.
“No need. When you guys go out later, just say… Then…”
Su Qing whispered to Zhong Yong and the guard, Little Ding. The four couldn’t all stay in the room, so how could they do anything?
“Yes, Master.”
As long as it was Su Qing’s orders, Zhong Yong would unconditionally respect them. There was no need to mention the guard, Little Ding. When the two left, the thin man next door immediately stared at them.
“Let’s go. I’m tired from the journey. Let’s go find a girl to play with.”
Zhong Yong hugged the shoulder of the guard, Little Ding, and said to him in a loud voice.
“That’s right. I’ve been a monk for half a month.”
Little Ding cooperated well and even rubbed his hands together and replied to Zhong Yong with a smile,
“Ask the waiter where the casino is. Let’s go win some money.”
The thin man gave the two men in the room a look, asking them to follow Zhong Yong and Little Ding.
Zhong Yong and Xiao Ding went to the front hall to look for the shopkeeper and asked where there were casinos and girls.
The two of them followed behind them and listened attentively. When they saw Zhong Yong and the others were about to leave, the two of them chased after them. Su Qing went out to stop the two of them.
“Two little brothers, do you know where I can buy bedding?”
“I don’t know, I don’t know.”
The two wanted to walk around Su Qing impatiently, but she stopped them.
“What’s with your attitude? I’m already so old, why don’t you have any manners? Do you have this attitude with your father at home?”
They watched as Zhong Yong and the guard, Little Ding, left. They raised their fists at Su Qing anxiously.
“Let go of me, or I’ll beat you up!”
“Shopkeeper, this is a report. These two are bullying the old man.”
Su Qing grabbed them tightly and shouted at the shopkeeper.
The thin man hurriedly came over when he saw this.
“I’m sorry. My two buddies were insensible and offended you. I apologize to you.”
Su Qing only let go after he apologized. She glared at the two of them angrily and said,
“I’ll let it go today on account of your boss.”
“Do you want to buy bedding? I know where to buy it. I’ll take you there to take a look.”
The thin man pulled Su Qing back and looked enthusiastic. He gave the two men a look, asking them to chase after Zhong Yong and the others.
“Thank you very much. My two sons are disobedient. I asked them to help me buy bedding, and they took the money to have fun. What kind of sin have I committed?”
Su Qing put on a pained look, and the thin man smiled and advised him. The two of them talked and walked out of the inn.
The street was not big, and they saw a clothes store after walking for a short distance. They sold all kinds of cloth, cotton, and thin bedding. Most of the things were made of coarse cloth, and only a small amount of silk and satin were sold. The shelves could not even fit them.
“You can buy it here. I’ll go back first.”
The thin man took Su Qing to the cloth shop and walked away, but Su Qing pulled him and refused to let him go.
“Don’t go. Help me carry it later. I’m too old to carry it.”
A haze flashed across the thin man’s eyes. He tried his best to calm down and squeeze out a smile.
“I’m sorry, I still have something to do. You can ask the waiter to send it over!”
“Wait, I came out quickly and forgot to bring silver. Can you lend me some?”
Su Qing still stopped him and refused to let him go. This time, she directly asked for money.
“I didn’t bring any either. You can just ask the waiter to send it to the inn and give him the money.”
The thin man took two deep breaths before he could hold it in. His expression was already terrible, and his voice was filled with displeasure.
This was a villain who only cared about profit. If he did not take enough advantage, he could not be a big shot.
“Then..Alright then!”
Only then did Su Qing let go of him. The thin man hurriedly left. If he stayed with this old man for a while longer, he would kill him.
Su Qing was leisurely choosing bedding in the shop. Zhong Yong and the others wouldn’t return tonight, so it was just her and Jiang Yuyan. However, she still wanted to buy four sets of bedding. There weren’t that many in the shop, so she bought them all.
The waiter helped to deliver the goods. She did not delay any longer outside and followed the waiter back to the inn.
When Su Qing came back, Jiang Yuyan had already finished showering. She ordered the waiter to change some clean water for her. The skinny man next door had also returned. However, she didn’t know what he was doing upstairs.
After Su Qing and the other shop assistants left, they showered and went to bed early. In the middle of the night, they heard a voice from next door.
“It’s so itchy. Ah, what kind of bug is this?”
Su Qing opened her eyes and smiled. “You drugged me, and I gave you worms. We’re even now.”
“Aiya, it’s so itchy. What kind of worm is this?”
Su Qing shouted the same thing in this room, making the neighbor misunderstand that there were bugs in her room.
The person next door obviously couldn’t stand the itch anymore. He opened the door and went out to look for the waiter.
“Come here, come and take a look. What kind of worm is this?”
Su Qing opened the door and followed the waiter into the room next door.
“There are bugs in your room, too, right?”
She asked the thin man in a friendly manner. At this moment, the thin man was already covered in red rashes from being bitten. Then, she looked at the black worms crawling all over the shop. They were so densely packed that it made one’s hair stand on end.
Su Qing entered the room and observed the six people. The two people who followed Zhong Yong were in the room, proving they did not follow Zhong Yong and the others.
The shop assistant was also frightened by the black bug. He looked pretty pitiful when the thin man grabbed his collar.contemporary romance
“Sir, I don’t know what kind of insect this is either. It’s too… It’s too scary.”
“How do we live here? How?”
The thin man’s body was itchy and uncomfortable. He scratched in a hurry and scolded the waiter.
“I… I’ll get some chili noodles and see if it can drive it away.”
After saying that, the waiter ran out. He felt that if he didn’t leave, this thin man would strangle him to death.
“Why are you here?”
The thin man noticed Su Qing and asked her fiercely..
