He looked at the waiter with a puzzled expression, but the waiter only led the way attentively, without offering any explanation whatsoever.

Xixi, on the other hand, instantly gave me the feeling of stepping back into modern times and entering a hot pot restaurant.

Thanks to this great era, people are no longer satisfied with just being well-fed and clothed, but are instead pursuing a higher level of spiritual pleasure.

As a result, some restaurants began to use this kind of shouting marketing method to make customers feel valued, thereby greatly satisfying their vanity.

Surprisingly, this marketing method is not a modern invention, but has existed since ancient times.

Without much hesitation, Xixi followed the other person's directions and climbed the stairs one step at a time.

Every now and then, a warm reminder to "watch your step" would reach her ears, making her feel like a VIP.

Inevitably, Xixi instantly became the focus of the entire restaurant, since most people were still struggling to make ends meet and couldn't afford this extra expense.

Of course, Han Sui was one of them!

If it weren't for the fact that she wanted to see Elder Qian again tonight, she wouldn't have chosen this hotel at all. You know, a night here costs a hundred mid-grade crystals, and a casual meal costs forty or fifty mid-grade crystals. And the additional services she's adding now cost ten high-grade crystals!

Ten high-grade crystals are enough for him to stay for a hundred days, and she won't waste them!

Moreover, in order to save money, she only booked this one room, leaving behind three or five close male companions, while kicking out all the others.

Whether they live in a woodshed, find a job with room and board, or sleep on the streets, it all depends on their own fate.

She doesn't have enough crystals to support so many people!

Speaking of this, he couldn't help but complain about Hua Xian, asking why she had found so many beastly husbands for him, saying that raising them was a waste of money!

But she didn't consider that if it weren't for so many beastmen carrying her all the way, how could she have safely arrived in Yunyao City?

Of course, these were all her little schemes, unknown and unconcerned to others.

At this moment, under the watchful eyes of everyone and with the attentive guidance of the waiter, Xixi finally stepped onto the corridor on the third floor.

Their eyes met, and Han Sui instinctively turned and ran. But after only two steps, he immediately remembered the guards in the house and cried out for help, "My lord, save me! It's her, it's her! She's trying to kill me, she's chasing me!"

The fact that she used "she" four times in one sentence shows how terrified she was.

Xi Xi gave a cold laugh, looking at the other person as if they were a madman, ignoring them completely, and turned to the waiter, "Where is my room?"

"Oh...oh..." The waiter suddenly came to his senses and quickly continued forward, "It's over here, you see the sign on the door says—Youpenglai!"

Before entering, Xixi glanced to her left and, just as Yinyou had said, her residence was next to Han Sui's, right to her right!

They had no choice but to obey the old man's order. Although they disliked Han Sui's loud and boisterous manner, the guards still rushed out to check and happened to see Xi Xi and his party enter and close the gate.

"Hey!" one of them shouted.

Xi Xi paused in closing the door, tilted her head, and asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"

What a convenient "What's wrong?" It makes them seem like they're making trouble out of nothing.

The guard frantically fidgeted with his fingers, then pulled Han Sui in front of him. "Are you sure it's her? She wants to kill you? What grudge do you have against her?"

Actually, asking about grudges was a bit presumptuous, since Elder Qian hadn't asked much either. But the guard really couldn't understand how such a pretty little female could kill someone, let alone chase after them! Judging from how frightened Han Sui was, it didn't seem like something this little female would do. Could there be some misunderstanding?

Han Sui's silence only deepened the guard's suspicions. Xi Xi, showing no intention of explaining, asked, "Is there anything else, Brother Guard? If not, I'd like to rest!"

"We can't let her go! We can't!" Han Sui shouted shrilly before the guards could answer.

Xixi discovered that the females in their clownfish village all had rather loud voices.

Not only Hua Xian and Yuan Wei, but even Han Sui, who underwent gender reassignment surgery halfway through his life, is like this. With such a loud voice, he might wake up the whole building.

That's right, the first time they were woken up was by the signboard of Xixi Shanglou. Although it was annoying, they thought it was better to avoid trouble. The people who could put up such a signboard were not people they could afford to offend. Besides, it was the shop owner's behavior, and they had nowhere to reason with them.

But this second time it was woken up by someone, and by an ignorant female!

Immediately, many people opened their windows and doors and began to curse:

"It's so late at night, can't a person get any sleep?"

"What's all the noise about? And why are you shouting so loudly? Do you think you're in your own home? Don't you have any sense of public decency?"

"What do you mean we can't let her go? Who do you think you are? What gives you the right?"

……

Numerous doubts and insults came crashing down on Han Sui. Her beastly husband belatedly came out and was also subjected to a barrage of insults. He was accused of not serving her well enough, having poor kidney function, and not being able to satisfy his wife. In short, he was subjected to all sorts of nasty insults. In the end, it was all just a bunch of filth and excrement.

Enraged, Han Sui lost his mind and waved his hand, ordering, "Arrest them! Arrest them all! Anyone who resists will be killed without mercy!"

That shout really startled the group of people. They had only complained a bit, but they never expected to lose their lives because of it!

The guards also frowned, but did not step forward to arrest anyone. However, they still symbolically stood up to maintain order. "Can't sleep, huh? If you can't sleep, go to the mountains and have a close encounter with magical beasts!"

As he spoke, he revealed his waist badge and the curved knife slung across his waist. The gleaming blade was so sharp it made one's eyes bulge.

We gained a more accurate understanding of Han Sui's identity.

This guy actually has bodyguards by his side; we can't afford to mess with him!

However, after everyone returned to their rooms and everything returned to quiet, the guard couldn't help but say, "Han Sui, we are indeed ordered to protect you, but we are not your private guards. Next time, please handle this kind of thing yourself and don't use us as a gimmick!"

As he spoke, he prepared to go inside, displaying an attitude that he would rather die than care about Han Sui's madness.

In his anger, Han Sui met Xi Xi's gaze once again.

That look in his eyes was clearly one of gloating, and even... his murderous intent was completely undisguised!

She came to kill me, that's all she came to kill me. Otherwise, with so many shops and so many rooms, why would she just happen to be staying next door to me?

It must be said that at this moment, Han Sui guessed correctly and saw correctly. But when she grabbed the guard's arm and insisted on ordering him to kill Xixi to prevent future troubles,

In return, the guard impatiently waved him away, saying, "Han Sui, you should know your place. I'll reiterate: we are not your private guards. Our duty is simply to protect you, not to kill whoever you tell us to kill!"
