Chapter 45 Entering the Forest
"Squeak!"
The inn door suddenly opened, and a middle-aged man came out. He was slightly taken aback when he saw Su Muya, and then quickly stepped aside.
Su Muya entered the room and found only a man sitting at the table eating. Nothing else seemed amiss, so she asked, "May I ask who you are, sir, and how you are addressed?"
Upon hearing this, the man quickly stood up, bowed respectfully, and replied, "My surname is Liu, and I am the innkeeper. I happened to meet two young ladies today, and I would like to invite you to be guests at the inn!"
Upon hearing this, Su Muya raised an eyebrow. This inn was quite nice; it seemed that Manager Liu was a capable person.
Su Muya looked around and found that the entire inn was decorated in a magnificent style, with some antique carved railings and painted beams, making it look very beautiful and exquisite.
Seeing that Su Muya was staring at everything around her, Manager Liu assumed that she was interested in the interior design of the inn, so he began to introduce the facilities and prices of the inn.
"Young lady, you may not know this, but the owner of this inn is our local boss, a wealthy and powerful man who rarely shows himself in the inn, so few people know him! However, if you could become acquainted with my master, that would be wonderful!"
"Really! I think he's not only rich, but also handsome. No wonder he attracts business!"
"Haha, you're absolutely right, young lady. My surname is Liu, and I'm nominally the Liu family's steward!"
"Oh! So Manager Liu is from the Liu family!"
Yes, yes!
When Manager Liu saw Su Muya praising his family, he immediately became very excited and said with a smile.
"I wonder where Manager Liu got the information that Xiaoqing and I would be arriving in the capital tonight?"
"Hehe, well!" Manager Liu deliberately kept everyone in suspense for a moment, then said with a smile, "Miss, you just need to come with me to see the Liu family head. I can guarantee that you won't suffer any losses in this matter!"
Seeing this, Su Muya didn't ask any more questions.
"Miss, which way should we go now?"
Xiaoqing walked to Su Muya's side and asked with concern.
Upon hearing this, Su Muya glanced at the street ahead and found that apart from some ordinary people, there was no one else on the street, nor any signs of a fight.
Could it be because they didn't catch up with me after I fled the woods?
Thinking of this, Su Muya breathed a sigh of relief.
Su Muya was about to say she was going to walk to the right when she saw a thin man dressed in coarse linen clothes hurrying towards her.
The man had injuries on his face, and it appeared that he had suffered a serious one.
Su Muya recognized the man at a glance as the one who had saved her, and felt secretly grateful.
"Manager Liu, this young master is the distinguished guest I mentioned!"
Su Muya quickly introduced it to Manager Liu.
Upon hearing this, Manager Liu quickly bowed to Su Muya and respectfully greeted her, "Greetings, Miss!"
"No need for formalities, Manager Liu. Where are we going now?"
Su Muya asked.
"Well..." Manager Liu scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed, and said, "Miss, why don't you come with me? I'll take you somewhere that I guarantee you'll be satisfied!"
Seeing Liu's mysterious demeanor, Su Muya nodded.
Su Muya and Xiaoqing followed Manager Liu all the way to the entrance of a secluded alley, where Manager Liu suddenly stopped.
Seeing this, Su Muya looked at him with a puzzled expression, then asked, "Manager Liu, why did you bring us here?"
"Please wait a moment, young lady. You'll find out soon enough!"
After finishing his sentence, Manager Liu walked towards the entrance of the alley.
Su Muya looked around and found that there was no one around, which made her even more puzzled.
"Could this alley be the residence of the Liu family head?"
Su Muya wondered to herself.
At this moment, Manager Liu led Su Muya to a wooden door.
Manager Liu gently knocked on the wooden door, then called out loudly, "Master, we have distinguished guests!"
"Let her in!"
An old but powerful voice rang out.
Upon hearing this, Su Muya quickly pushed open the door and entered.
"Please come in, young lady. The head of the family is already waiting!"
Manager Liu turned around, smiled broadly, and waved to Su Muya, indicating that she could go in.
Upon hearing this, Su Muya nodded and went inside.
Manager Liu followed closely behind.
As soon as Su Muya entered the room, she saw an old man with a white beard sitting upright in the main seat, his eyes bright and piercing, looking very dignified.
Manager Liu stood beside him, looking at him with utmost respect.
Seeing how respectful Manager Liu was to the old man, Su Muya immediately understood that the old man must be extremely powerful; otherwise, a mere shopkeeper like her wouldn't dare to be so respectful to him.
Manager Liu stood next to the old man and said with a smile, "Master, this is Steward Liu from our town, and also the steward of our Liu family."
The old man nodded, then instructed Manager Liu, "You may leave now."
Upon hearing this, Manager Liu bowed respectfully and left.
"Steward Liu, your master is truly remarkable!"
After Manager Liu left, Su Muya couldn't help but praise him.
“Of course!” Butler Liu proudly raised his head.
Seeing this, Su Muya smiled and continued, "I was wondering if we could rest in this room for the time being?"
Upon hearing this, Butler Liu quickly smiled and shook his head, saying, "Miss, you don't need to rest. My master is inside the room; you can go see him first!"
"My patriarch doesn't want to see me?"
"No, the head of the family greatly admires your medical skills and wants you to treat him!" Butler Liu quickly explained.
"Then hurry up and introduce me inside! We're not hungry now, we don't need to rest!"
"Yes, girl!"
"Okay! I'll go in first then!"
"Take care, young lady. I won't see you off!"
Butler Liu's eyes flickered as he waved to Su Muya and said.
Upon hearing this, Su Muya nodded and then walked into the room.
There was a large table in the room, on which tea sets and pastries were laid out.
At one corner of the table sat an elderly man with gray hair, but who looked very energetic.
Seeing that this man was old but very energetic, Su Muya couldn't help but sigh inwardly, realizing that such an old man was actually a powerful and influential person in the capital.
"Grandpa, my name is Su Muya, and I am a doctor. You must be the head of the Liu family!" Su Muya approached the old man, who was resting with his eyes closed, and said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Grandpa Liu opened his eyes, a look of relief appearing in them.
