I survived as a female assassin

Xin Youran: ...

Brother, I beg you, we are running for our lives now, who cares whether it is dirty or not, it’s good enough as long as we can fill our stomachs!

"It's not clean. You won't get sick from eating it. Eat it while it's hot. It won't taste as good if it gets cold."

Mu Yuan remained unmoved and continued walking forward.

Tsk, the prince is just being pretentious. Just wait to starve.

Xin Youran put the meat bun back into the bag and finished the big bun that she had just eaten half of in a few bites.

She followed Mu Yuan and told him what the bun shop owner had just said.

"I didn't expect you to hit the mark unexpectedly and go in the right direction."

"By the way, I just spent twenty-four coins on buns. These buns will definitely last us until we get to the inn."

"I don't know how much it will cost to stay in an inn. I don't even have one or two taels of silver right now. I hope I can make it to the capital..."

……

Along the way, Xin Youran was either eating buns or chatting with Mu Yuan. He was really a good "listener".

Didn't say a word the whole time.

But this hour has already passed, right? Why haven't I seen the inn that the bun shop owner mentioned?

Xin Youran realized that something must have gone wrong, so she pulled Mu Yuan.

"Mu Yuan, haven't we been walking for more than an hour? Is there an inn here?"

The further we go, the more desolate it becomes. If we keep going like this, we'll be in trouble when the sun sets...

I heard Xin Youran chattering a lot along the way, and I wondered if she wasn't thirsty?

Seeing that she was not stupid, Mu Yuan began to explain, "That person told you the fastest speed. At your speed, it will probably take another half an hour."

Xin Youran: ...

Who is he looking down on? She has already quickened her pace to match him, so why is he still going at this speed? Could it be that he has deliberately slowed down his pace to match her along the way?

Xin Youran ignored him and quickened her pace, walking in front of Mu Yuan.

Anyway, she had already eaten two big buns, so she had plenty of energy. Unlike someone who didn't eat or drink, she didn't believe he wasn't hungry. She didn't believe he wouldn't be greedy when he smelled such delicious buns!

The reason why Xin Youran had nothing to say along the way was actually a manifestation of her fear and nervousness.

If it is true as Leng Yue said, [Luo Yu] will not retreat, but will only die. In her current situation, if she falls into [Luo Yu]'s hands, she will die.

Danger is everywhere. The organization [Luoyu] must be very large. She has to send Prince Mu Yuan back to the capital as soon as possible, so as not to implicate innocent people.

"Mu Yuan, so you mean we can reach the inn in another half an hour?"

"Ah."

"What's the inn like? There must be a number one room, right?"

She was quite curious. She had seen many rooms called "Tian Zi Hao", "Di Zi Hao", "Xing Fang" and so on in costume dramas before. It should be the same here.

"How much does it cost to stay in a No. 1 room for one night?"

"We definitely can't afford a top-tier hotel with this little money, but don't worry. I'll be able to earn money once we get to the capital, and then we can experience a top-tier hotel."

……

Mu Yuan walked forward like a log, listening to whatever Xin Youran said. Sometimes he felt that her behavior actually added some fun to the boring journey.

It seemed like time passed very quickly, and before I knew it, I could see the inn from afar.

"Mu Yuan, Mu Yuan! Look quickly, isn't that the inn the bun shop owner mentioned?"

"As expected, you're not lying to me. Hehe, my feet are almost not my feet anymore..."

"Let's go in and rest our feet!"

This inn is located in the middle of nowhere, but its location is excellent. It is built next to a pipeline and is the only way to enter the capital.

Therefore, the business is particularly good, with most of the people here being businessmen, and the decoration is also quite artistic.

"Yunmeng Inn, what a pretentious name! The owner must be a cultured person."

Xin Youran stood in front of the inn and looked at the words on the plaque at the door. It should be called Yunmeng, right?

In the blink of an eye, Mu Yuan had already entered.

"Hey, wait for me."

She hurried to catch up. What a joke this guy was. The money was with her, so why was he so eager to do it?

"My two guests, please come in. Would you like to have dinner or stay overnight?"

The sun is about to set. We are in the middle of nowhere and there is no hotel nearby. We must stay in a hotel. This waiter is really clueless.

"Have a meal."

"Stay at the hotel."

Xin Youran and Mu Yuan spoke in unison, but there was no tacit understanding between their words.

She quickly pulled him aside and said, "It's already this late, it's going to be dark soon, and the temperature has dropped quite a bit. We definitely need to stay in a hotel. Are you planning on traveling at night?"

"We still have the money, so getting a room shouldn't be a problem. Don't worry."

She almost whispered to the other person, trying to persuade Mu Yuan.

As soon as Mu Yuan entered the inn, he felt that something was wrong around him and that he could not stay in this inn.

But Xin Youran was not at all vigilant.

After Xin Youran finished speaking to Mu Yuan, she smiled and replied to the waiter, "Stay in the hotel, stay in the hotel. How much silver does a room cost?"

The waiter replied with a smile, "An ordinary room costs five hundred coins, and a superior room costs one ounce of silver."

Xin Youran couldn't help but be curious, "Does our inn have any top-grade rooms?"

"What's the price?"

The waiter looked at him suspiciously. "You want to stay in the top room? Sorry, it's full."

"As for the price, you definitely can't afford it."

"Oh, how can you still look down on others?"

"You didn't even tell me, so why are you saying I can't afford it?"

Xin Youran hated this kind of snobbish waiter the most and was ready to argue with him.

"Two taels of silver."

The waiter put his hands on his hips and stretched out a hand towards Xin Youran, motioning her to take the money.

Uh, staying in a hotel is really expensive...

After buying the buns, she had no money left.

Even if you open an ordinary room, it will cost 500 Wen, which is enough to buy a lot of meat buns!

She suddenly felt that perhaps Mu Yuan's decision was correct. Staying in an inn for one night was really not worth it!

But now that he had already said the big words, he could only bite the bullet and said, "Didn't you just say that there are no top-grade rooms?"

"Forget it today. I'll come back another day and stay in the No. 1 room. Please give me an ordinary room."

The waiter had an expression of "I knew it" and took Xin Youran to the front desk to register and pay.

Xin Youran was so arrogant during the whole process that even if Mu Yuan tried to stop her, he probably couldn't. After seeing that she had already paid the money, he sighed helplessly.

It seemed like this night was destined to come.

Even if I don't stay in this inn, I will stay somewhere else.
