Chapter 1396: A small inn on the border
A sandstorm completely isolated this small inn from the outside world, turning it into an isolated island.
After discovering this fact, the groups of people from outside became somewhat uneasy.
After all, the inn was a completely unfamiliar place to them, and there were so many people around who couldn't tell friend from foe. If something really happened, they wouldn't know how to deal with it.
Especially Zhou Lingyu and Zhou Heng, they regretted coming here rashly.
Of course, they will only regret it more in the future.
Shi Li leaned against the fence on the second floor, cracking melon seeds, and watched with great interest the anxious and forced calm expressions of the crowd. She felt that it was more interesting than the popular TV series.
He even added fuel to the fire by saying, "Dear guests, rest assured, we have prepared enough food and drinks here, as long as you can afford the money."
The teasing words made people even more angry. If they didn't have ulterior motives, who would come to such a shabby inn and be so scared?
There was a big man on the Japanese side who was very angry. He thought that others couldn't understand Japanese, so he cursed and said some dirty words.
Suddenly his body stiffened, he screamed, and spat out a mouthful of blood mixed with a few ordinary melon seed shells.
Seeing this, the surrounding Fuso people raised their heads and looked at Shi Li in horror.
Then she saw the man from yesterday walk up to her and hand her a few peeled melon seeds without even looking at her.
He can actually use melon seeds as sharp hidden weapons. This guy is so terrifying!
The Fuso people were horrified and exchanged glances with each other, not daring to act rashly.
"Tsk, you deserve it!" Yuan Shang stood in a corner where no one was paying attention and retracted the half-drawn sword.
Watching all this, Zhou Lingyu secretly clenched the teacup in his hand and glanced at Zhou Heng who was working hard.
Such a little-known inn, with so many hidden talents, it was indeed a good choice for him to come here. There must be some secrets hidden here.
If he could dig out this secret, it would definitely add bargaining chips to his future.
Contrary to what he thought, Zhou Heng lowered his head and wiped the table, thinking of Xuanyuan Lin. He felt more and more that this man was familiar, but he couldn't figure out who he was no matter how hard he tried.
This sandstorm lasted for a full half month.
Xuanyuan Lin was in charge of the inn, and despite the large number of people, no unexpected incidents occurred. The people from different parties had their own thoughts and could only test each other. They did not dare to target the inn, let alone have any plans against Shi Li.
"Can you shave your beard when the wind and sand stop?" In her spare time, Shi Li leaned on Xuanyuan Lin boredly and reached out to touch his rough chin.
However, Xuanyuan Lin held her hand tightly, and his eyes forbade her to touch him again.
Shi Li: ???
"My dear wife, we haven't gotten married yet."
Xuanyuan Lin was a little helpless. It was the most difficult to accept the favor of a beautiful woman. Shi Li came so close to him every day. It was uncomfortable enough for him, a normal man in every way. But she liked to touch him for no reason.
If Shi Li would listen to him, she would not be herself.
After being confused for a second, Shi Li reacted immediately and laughed. She completely ignored the wrist that was held by Xuanyuan Lin, leaned over and kissed him on the neck, and blew a breath at the end.
Feeling that Xuanyuan Lin was completely frozen, Shi Li laughed so hard that her body shook, and her other free hand circled his neck.
"Brother~Brother~"
[Host, did you become Daji's disciple in your dream? ]
[I suddenly envy Xuanyuan Lin, the anchor is so hot! I can do it! ]
[Wow wow wow, my love for the girl is going bad, I really need to wash myself! ]
The reaction of the barrage is like this, not to mention the person involved.
Xuanyuan Lin didn't move, only his chest rose and fell slightly, his eyes were as dark as the inexhaustible night, he took a few deep breaths, as if in compromise, he let go of her slender wrist and held her in his arms.
"Lili."
He called Shi Li in a deep and hoarse voice, lowered his head and kissed the top of her black hair, "When this matter is settled, we will get married."
Shi Li naturally didn't care whether the marriage would be successful or not. But since Xuanyuan Lin had said so, she didn't want to subvert his principles, so she just waited patiently.
