Chapter 1440 Pride and Prejudice and the Escort Agency
When they set out, Luo Qingyan's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.
His horse was the same one as before. When it fell into the river, the horse was held by someone nearby, so nothing was lost.
Before getting on the horse, Luo Qingyan deliberately reached into the sack and felt around. The small box he had put in before setting off was still there, so he felt relieved.
Shi Li and Yi Can also got on their horses, and the two horses rode forward side by side. When they reached Luo Qingyan, Shi Li glanced at his face.
"Mr. Luo is still feeling unwell. His face looks so bad."
She spoke with concern, but Luo Qingyan didn't appreciate it at all and even snorted.
Shi Li thought he was still bothered by her lie that he had a fever, so she smiled helplessly and said nothing more. Instead, she turned her head to the other side, also concerned about Yi Can.
"How are your injuries, brother? Are they getting better?"
"Much better. It's not serious." Yi Can smiled gently, but he still held the reins with one hand, which showed that the injury was not as minor as he said.
Shi Li glanced at him and sighed softly, "Brother, you should be careful..."
"How long will it take to walk this road? The sun is so strong, it's uncomfortable!" Luo Qingyan interrupted her loudly from the other side.
This was the first time that Luo Qingyan acted like a spoiled brat since they set out. Shi Li looked him up and down in surprise.
He said, "It will only take an hour to get there, just hold on."
After a pause, she rode her horse a little closer to Luo Qingyan and asked in a low voice, "Are you really having a fever? The sun is not shining today."
Luo Qingyan choked and said nothing, but just snorted again.
But Yi Can was still fanning the flames unknowingly.
"Mr. Luo's physique is weak, so you should pay more attention to it in the future."
Luo Qingyan clenched his fists again, and looked at Yi Can with anger. This man actually said that he was weak? And he couldn't refute it!
The roads were a little muddy the day after the rain, but the air was surprisingly good, filled with the scent of fresh grass and trees.
The sound of horse hooves could be heard one after another. The members of the escort team had encountered two dangers and were becoming more cautious. Even the expressions of the two young escorts who had been drunk before became serious, hoping to make up for their sins.
After more than an hour, the road ahead became very open and people could be seen coming and going. We finally arrived at a small town where there was an inn where we could stay.
The town was very small, and the townspeople coming and going all spoke with their local accent. They greeted Shi Li and the others warmly when they saw them.
One of the young girls carrying a shoulder pole probably thought Yi Can was handsome and couldn't help but look at him several times. After being noticed by Shi Li, she shyly walked away quickly.
The group checked into the only inn in the town.
As soon as he entered the inn, Luo Qingyan first found a waiter and complained that he had a headache and sore throat. He stuffed a piece of silver into the waiter and asked him to find a doctor quickly.
His behavior made Shi Li wonder if he was really feeling unwell, so she followed him into the room.
"you……"
"I'm fine, but looking at you, I'm afraid you will faint at any time." After Luo Qingyan entered the room, he looked at her and snorted again, then turned his back and walked to the window.
This person actually felt guilty and took the initiative to find a doctor for himself?
Shi Li felt a little unbelievable, but she would definitely not refuse such a good intention, so she immediately smiled and said, "Thank you, Mr. Luo."
"Hmph, I'm afraid you'll really fall down and be useless if you encounter danger again." Luo Qingyan still turned his back to her, opened the window and looked at the scenery on the street.
If she looked back, Shi Li would find that his face was abnormally red again, but he definitely did not have a fever.
Shi Li endured it.
But I didn't notice that the barrage has been too quiet recently.
There is a saying that goes, if a child is quiet, he must be up to something.
This is what barrage is all about, a crazy discussion is taking place in a secretly established discussion group.
[Betting on a spicy noodle, Luo Qingyan blushed~]
[I gave him a bag of potato chips, and Luo Qingyan loved it without knowing it! ]
[You guys are such a coward! I bet a row of Yakult~]
When it comes to supporting a couple, it’s very joyful if you support the right couple.
After traveling for half a day, Shi Li had been forcing herself to stay awake. Now she was finally able to relax a little and found a chair in the corner to sit down.
After a moment, Luo Qingyan turned around and walked towards the door, opened the door and shouted at the top of his voice -
"Waiter, bring a kettle of hot water! Quickly!"
The inn's waiter was always particularly attentive to generous guests, and almost immediately ran up to the second floor with a teapot in his hand.
Luo Qingyan took the teapot from Xiaoer and turned around to put it on the table next to Shi Li.
After hesitating for a moment, he poured himself another glass.
"I'm thirsty myself, not the hot water I asked for from you!"
He raised the cup and drank. The scalding hot water scalded his whole body and he forced himself not to open his mouth and swallowed the hot water.
At the same time, there was a knock on the door and Yi Can's voice outside.
"Junior sister, the doctor is here."
