Chapter 1391: A small inn on the border
The pain has almost subsided, and I'm even hungrier now that I haven't eaten.
Shi Li took a deep breath, turned around and walked back, "Susu should have prepared breakfast for me by now, I wonder what delicious food there is..."
"I really admire you. You're thinking about eating right after vomiting. Have you forgotten those two sticks on the ground just now..." Yuan Shang's chatterbox habit relapsed. He was muttering halfway when Shi Li glared back at him.
The two returned to the lobby one after the other, and the people who were there just now were still there.
The leader of the Fuso tribe seemed to have recovered from his anger. He came over to negotiate and gave Shi Li an ingot of silver, wanting to book a few more guest rooms.
Shi Li stretched out her fingers and counted them. "There are seven of you in total. I charge per person. There are only two rooms left on the first floor."
Looking at her expression of "I can't stay here if I want", the leader's face was full of frustration.
If they were ordinary merchants, they would definitely not be able to stand this and would just leave. However, they came with different purposes and naturally would not leave easily.
The leader looked back at the people he brought with him, took a deep breath, and said with difficulty, "Okay, two rooms means two rooms. We will listen to the boss lady."
Shi Li was still happy that the other party was so considerate, and raised her chin to signal Yuan Shang to accept the other party's money. She disliked the dirty things that had passed through the hands of Fusang people, and didn't even want to touch them.
Yuan Shang glanced at her resentfully, obviously understanding what she was thinking. He silently complained in his heart: You think it's dirty, but don't I think it's dirty too? Big brother really indulges you in all your bad habits!
Now he can only complain in his heart.
Just as I finished this side, I saw Tang Rouzhi walking in with a covered plate.
I really don't know how heavy the plate is. She looks like she is carrying it with great effort, her lips tightly pursed, which makes people feel pity for her at first sight.
Even Shi Li thought so, let alone others.
Zhou Lingyu was just pretending to be full of hatred towards Fuso, but when he saw Tang Rouzhi, he immediately put everything behind him. Regardless of his status as a royal son and a phoenix grandson, he personally walked over to help Tang Rouzhi carry the dishes.
"Mr. Zhou, no need..."
Tang Rouzhi dodged weakly for a moment, then raised her eyes and glanced at Shi Li quietly, as if that was Zhou Baopi who didn't care about other people's lives, and she was the little white rabbit who was bullied.
Zhou Lingyu couldn't stand this, so he snatched the plate and walked towards Shi Li angrily.
Shi Li: ...
[Are you sure this person is really a nobleman in the imperial city? He seems to be a fake. I suggest you investigate him carefully~]
[Don't give power to such a person, otherwise he will become the second King You of Zhou~]
[Can men really not tell green tea? ? ? ]
The screen was filled with comments expressing incomprehension, floating densely in front of her eyes. Shi Li rolled her eyes at Zhou Lingyu who had not yet approached.
Yuan Shang did not even give Zhou Lingyu a chance to question him and stopped him halfway.
"Mr. Zhou, give it to me." As he spoke, he snatched the plate away.
Zhou Lingyu was filled with courage just now, but now he has finally calmed down a little. He turned around and looked at Tang Rouzhi, who seemed to be scared silly standing there.
It was not a big deal, but I happened to see that her sleeves were turned up a little, and there was a bruise on her wrist. The bruise on her fair wrist was shocking.
Today Xu Su made Shi Li firm and chewy shrimp dumplings, a full plate. Each one was crystal clear and had a rich aroma that made one's mouth water.
It was hard for Xu Su to buy fresh prawns here to make these. After Shi Li finished eating one, she immediately picked up the second one. Before she put it in her mouth, she heard Zhou Lingyu's voice, suppressing his anger.
"Madam boss, Miss Tang has no one to rely on and has come to you for help. You can't just let others bully her, right?"
Such a brainless sentence instantly made Shi Li lose her appetite.
After taking a look at Zhou Lingyu who walked up to Tang Rouzhi and looked at her with a distressed look on his face, Shi Li just felt unlucky.
"Mr. Zhou, you were the one who brought her back, and you were the one who asked me to keep her. I never owe her anything."
Shi Li spoke sharply and was too lazy to even laugh. She glanced at Zhou Lingyu and Tang Rouzhi sarcastically, feeling that this man was even more rotten than barbecued pork.
"I never have the rule of bullying anyone here, but I also don't have the habit of making up stories. I would like to ask, who bullied her?"
Tang Rouzhi lowered her head timidly, and as Shi Li spoke, her shoulders kept shivering as if she was extremely scared.
Seeing this, Zhou Lingyu frowned and whispered to comfort her, "Don't be afraid, don't stay here in the future, just stay with me, I won't let anyone bully you."
"Mr. Zhou, I..." Tang Rouzhi raised her head, her face full of admiration and attachment, which instantly greatly satisfied Zhou Lingyu's vanity.
