Chapter 55: The Flirtatious Boss Lady, Zhou Huaian is Here [Seeking a Monthly Ticket]
Jiang Xuan and his three companions walked into the inn, casually glanced at the situation inside, and paused slightly.
"It's those robbers!"
When Lu Xiaochuan saw Qiu Moyan and others in the middle, his face changed slightly, and he was about to draw his sword, but was blocked by Jiang Xuan's hand.
Jia Ting also quickly stood in front of Lu Xiaochuan and whispered, "Xiaochuan, don't act rashly!"
There were twenty-three people in the inn, and they all looked like wandering people.
They haven't figured out the situation inside yet, so they will definitely suffer if a fight breaks out.
Lu Xiaochuan reacted quickly, put away his sword, pretended nothing had happened, and followed Jia Ting with his head down.
Jia Ting walked up to Jin Xiangyu with a smile and said, "Madam, we are merchants passing through here and would like to rest here for one night. Do you have any rooms available?"
"I didn't ask you anything, why are you butting in?"
However, Jin Xiangyu didn't give him any face at all. She scolded Jia Ting casually and pushed him aside. Ignoring his stiff expression, she walked straight to Jiang Xuan, staring at Jiang Xuan's face with her eyes, almost tears in her eyes.
"Sir, are you here for a quick meal or to stay overnight?"
Jiang Xuan glanced at Qiu Moyan and the others who were facing a formidable enemy, and said calmly, "Bring a pot of tea first, and then prepare a vacant room."
As he spoke, he casually lifted his sleeves and walked straight to the only empty table inside.
"Oh, so cool!"
Jin Xiangyu's eyes lit up and she immediately followed.
This infatuated look made everyone in the inn twitch their lips.
"Vixen!"
"Slut!"
Jia Ting and Qiu Moyan snorted coldly at the same time, then looked at each other, snorted again, and turned back.
"It's those henchmen of the East Factory!" He Hu's face was solemn, staring at Jia Ting and others, and his hands under the table were all holding weapons.
"Don't act rashly!"
Qiu Moyan whispered, "Zhou Huaian hasn't arrived yet. It won't do us any good if we take action now."
Hearing this, He Hu and the others could only temporarily suppress their murderous intent, but they kept staring at Jiang Xuan and his group from the corner of their eyes.
At this time, Jiang Xuan and the other three pretended not to know Qiu Moyan and the others, and sat down at an empty table in the corner.
Qiu Moyan followed Jiang Xuan closely, with most of her body almost pressed against him. She tossed her hair in a charming manner and asked softly, "Sir, how long do you plan to stay?"
"What? Are you afraid that I won't pay for the room?" Jiang Xuan looked at her with a half-smile, not fooled by her infatuated look.
He knew that the seemingly charming proprietress of the Longmen Inn was not as simple as she seemed.
"Well...I'm just afraid you'll leave without saying goodbye."
Jin Xiangyu acted coquettishly, then laid on Jiang Xuan's shoulder, saying charmingly, "The wind and rain from all directions are not as good as the rain in Longmen Mountain..."
"When it rains at Longmen Mountain, the snow tigers come down from the mountain."
Jiang Xuan picked up on her signal, casually pried her hand away, and said calmly, "Boss, first bring us a pot of tea to quench our thirst, and then serve us two of your specialties. Don't try to fool us with those random things."
Jin Xiangyu was startled for a moment, then smiled and said, "So we're all from the same sect. We should keep in touch more often in the future."
As he spoke, he shouted to the back, "Heizi, bring the pot of dragon balls. Then go to the kitchen and ask Diao Buyu to prepare a few side dishes. Make sure they are clean and don't serve the wrong ones!"
"Got it!"
Heizi, who was in charge of accounting, shouted and then went to the kitchen to order the cooking.
Jin Xiangyu looked at Jiang Xuan again: "Sir, would you like to drink?"
Jiang Xuan looked at Jia Ting: "Mr. Jia, would you like to drink?"
"Hmph! Make up your own mind!"
Jia Ting raised his head proudly, obviously still angry about Jin Xiangyu's different treatment just now.
Jiang Xuan smiled and ignored him. He turned around and said to Jin Xiangyu, "Then bring me a pot. You should know what kind of wine we want."
"Oh, don't worry, sir. We are all from the same business, so of course I know what kind of wine to serve."
Jin Xiangyu chuckled and turned around to say, "Heizi, bring another pot of wine."
"Got it!"
Heizi made tea and brought it to the table, then went back to prepare the drinks.
Jin Xiangyu picked up the teapot and slowly poured tea for the four people. She asked, half-consciously, "Sir, where are you from, and where are you going?"
"What? Are you trying to find out about us?"
Jiang Xuan calmly picked up the teacup and took a sip.
"Oh, no, it's not like that. The imperial court has been arresting important criminals recently, causing panic among the people in the desert. They are just worried."
Jiang Xuan smiled softly: "Then, Madam, do you think we look like wanted criminals?"
Jin Xiangyu looked at Jiang Xuan carefully, her eyes sparkling. Her slender jade fingers drew circles on Jiang Xuan's chest and said, "I don't think you look like a wanted criminal, but more like an arsonist."
Jiang Xuan raised his eyebrows: "Oh? Has there been a fire recently?"
"There's no fire here, but you've made the fire in my heart even brighter." Jin Xiangyu said shyly.
“…”Everyone was speechless.
Jia Ting couldn't help it, slammed the table, and said angrily: "You vixen, can you please stop disturbing us? You think you have nothing to do, don't you?"
"What are you yelling about?" Jin Xiangyu's tone changed. She glanced at Jia Ting and snorted coldly, "I'm not seducing you. What's it to you?"
"And judging by your appearance, you're probably willing but unable to do what you want. You're probably not capable enough, right? Could you be a eunuch?"
Jin Xiangyu didn't expect that her casual words would come true and hit Jia Ting's sore spot.
Jia Ting was so angry that his temples throbbed, and he stared at Jin Xiangyu: "You..."
"What are you?"
Jin Xiangyu was not afraid at all and snorted coldly: "You are so effeminate, you don't act like a man at all!"
After saying this, she turned back and hooked her arms around Jiang Xuan's neck, breathing sweetly, and said softly: "My lord, you have been traveling all day and you are tired. I will not disturb you to eat. I will wait for you in the room tonight..."
As she spoke, she gently stroked Jiang Xuan's chin with her jade finger and reluctantly went to the kitchen.
"Vixen! You really make me angry!"
Jia Ting's face turned red with anger and his chest kept heaving.
Lu Xiaochuan patted his back to calm him down and whispered to him, "Don't be angry, Lord Jia. It's not worth it to get yourself hurt by arguing with such a lowly woman. When Lord Cao's army arrives, we will immediately raze this inn and kill this bitch to vent your anger."
"Humph!"
Hearing this, Jia Ting's anger finally subsided a little. He then turned to look at Jiang Xuan and snorted coldly, "Master Jiang, what did you mean by what you just said to that vixen? Where did the storm come from?"
Jiang Xuan whispered, "Mr. Jia, this is the jargon used in the Longmen area. This Longmen Inn is a shady place. Only by matching their code words will they not suspect our identities, thus saving us from a lot of trouble."
"signal?"
Jia Ting was a little surprised: "Then how did you know?"
Jiang Xuan said, "I specifically inquired about this before coming here."
Jia Ting snorted softly, unsure whether to believe it or not. However, he didn't dwell on the question any further. Instead, he glanced at Qiu Moyan and the others behind him and asked, "Now that we've found the person, how are you going to complete the task assigned by the head of the organization?"
Jiang Xuan said: "Wait."
"Wait?" Jia Ting frowned.
Jiang Xuan nodded, glanced back, and whispered, "Lord Jia, it looks like they've just arrived at the inn. Zhou Huaian shouldn't be here yet. All we have to do now is keep a close eye on them. Once Zhou Huaian arrives, we can notify Lord Cao and have him bring his troops to capture them all."
Jia Ting narrowed his eyes slightly, then nodded and said, "Okay, as you say."
at the same time.
Qiu Moyan and others were also paying attention to the movements of Jiang Xuan and the other three, and discussing countermeasures in low voices.
"Since the East Factory's henchmen have chased us here, it won't be long before Cao Shaoqin's army arrives."
"Miss Qiu, what should we do now?"
"Wait!"
Qiu Moyan whispered, "There's no other way right now. We can only wait."
"Wait?" Tie Zhu frowned and asked, "Then how long do we have to wait?"
"Wait for Zhou Huaian to arrive!"
Qiu Moyan glanced at the position of Jiang Xuan and the other three and whispered, "As long as Cao Shaoqin doesn't come, we have more people and we don't have to be afraid of them in a fight. As soon as Zhou Huaian arrives, we will leave immediately. Since he asked us to meet here, he must have a way to get out."
He Hu snorted coldly: "Who knows when he will come? Don't wait for him to arrive, and the court people will come first. Then they will be beaten to a pulp and die without knowing how!"
"Yes, Miss Qiu, what He Hu said makes sense, and this inn is not safe either."
Tiezhu glanced back at the group of people behind him, his face solemn: "This group of horse bandits has already set their sights on us. I don't think the innkeeper, Jin Xiangyu, is a simple character either!"
Qiu Moyan shook his head and said, "It's been so many days. Zhou Huaian must have received the news that we successfully rescued him. He will definitely arrive at the inn before Cao Shaoqin."
"As for these bandits, they are just some low-class people. Don't worry about them."
Hearing this, everyone looked at each other, nodded, and sighed, "This is the only way."
Qiu Moyan turned around again and looked at the tall, straight figure in the corner, his brows furrowed, his heart full of confusion.
Until now, she still hasn't figured out why Jiang Xuan deliberately let her go and then followed her here.
What on earth does he want to do?
As the food and wine were served, Jiang Xuan and his three companions used silver needles to test the food to make sure it was not poisonous, then they began to concentrate on eating, ignoring Qiu Moyan and the others and the other group of horse bandits in the corner.
The three parties maintained a strange balance.
However, the group of horse bandits had the largest number of people. They kept looking at Qiu Moyan and Jiang Xuan's gangs, and their eyes were flickering, obviously still having ulterior motives.
However, they did not know that in the eyes of the other two groups, they were the least threatening party, and no one took them seriously.
Time passed slowly in this strange atmosphere.
By the time we finished dinner, it was completely dark.
At this time, Zhou Huaian had not yet arrived, so Jiang Xuan and Jia Ting discussed it and decided to go upstairs to rest.
But at this moment, the sound of a camel suddenly sounded outside the door.
After a while, a man in black holding an umbrella pushed the door open and walked in. He was tall, with an elegant and handsome appearance.
"Madam, is there a room available?"
Hearing this voice, Qiu Moyan and others turned around suddenly.
Jiang Xuan and the other three stopped as they were about to go upstairs, turned around and looked at the face of the man in black, with a gleam in their eyes.
Zhou Huaian is finally here!
