Chapter 40: The Black-Hearted Man Seeks Merchant Sex

"Jingsheng." Su Wan, who realized that something was wrong, raised her head and looked at Ye Jingsheng, "What's wrong?" ”

Ye Jingsheng looked down at Su Wan, shook his head, and looked at his right hand again, "It's nothing, it's just that the luggage was robbed." ”

"What?!" Su Wan was startled, looked at Ye Jingsheng's right hand, and hurriedly raised her head to look around, "Jingsheng can see who stole it?" Let's go to the police. Su Wan hurriedly clenched Ye Jingsheng's hand.

"Su Wan." Ye Jingsheng grabbed Su Wan, who was in a hurry to leave.

Su Wan didn't understand a little, looked up at Ye Jingsheng, and her puzzled gaze wandered on Ye Jingsheng's face.

Ye Jingsheng met Su Wan's gaze and shook his head slightly, "No need, the box is just some change of clothes, nothing valuable." It's better to find your uncle first. ”

"Hmm." Su Wan frowned slightly, "But Wuhan is so big, where can I find my uncle?" ”

"Uncle Zhuang gave me a rough address." Ye Jingsheng reached out and took out a folded piece of paper from the pocket of his suit, "The address on this will at least save us a lot of detours." Ye Jingsheng raised his eyebrows at Su Wan, the corners of his lips raised, and his smile was as warm as a spring breeze in March.

Su Wan looked a little dazed, her eyes gradually softened, and the corners of her lips couldn't help but rise.

Sometimes, being in a foreign land, the unfamiliar surroundings and people are not as frightening as the wordless smile of someone who believes wholeheartedly.

Because of that laughter, there is a kind of magic that will make your nervous heart settle down so obediently in that moment.

——

"Boss, come to two rooms."

On the brown high table, the shopkeeper who was settling accounts with his head down only heard the crisp male voice in front of him. With his years of experience in opening a shop, the owner of this voice is a young man.

"There's only one room left, do you want to?" The shopkeeper's eyebrows were slightly raised, and he moved the abacus in his hand, and his eyes did not lift a point.

"There's only one left?" Ye Jingsheng frowned, looked up at the layout of the entire inn, although it was not big, it was not small. Business is booming?

"Yes. There are three days left to pray for blessings in the Lude Temple once every five years. A lot of outsiders have come, so my room here has been booked, and I have been stayed, and now, there is only one room left. The shopkeeper stopped the abacus in his hand, raised his head slightly, and looked at a man and a woman in front of him from the small round glasses on the bridge of his nose, "You are also here to pray for blessings." The tone is not a question, but an affirmation.

"We,"

"Yes, we're here to pray for blessings." Ye Jingsheng naturally hugged Su Wan beside him and interrupted Su Wan's words.

Su Wan looked up at Ye Jingsheng with some puzzlement, not understanding Ye Jingsheng's intention by saying this.

The shopkeeper's gaze wandered between the two, and he suddenly laughed, "Are you here to ask for marriage or to ask for a son?" ”

Su Wan's face turned red when she asked a sentence.

Ye Jingsheng was also slightly stunned in place, and raised his eyebrows unnaturally.

The shopkeeper smiled in his heart, "Look at the two, the former has decided and doesn't need it." The shopkeeper turned around and took a key from the keypad behind him, placed it on the table, and handed it over. Upstairs turn left, the third room, the two of you have a good rest, what do you need to say. ”

"Thank you, shopkeeper." Ye Jingsheng expressed his gratitude and reached out to take the key.

The shopkeeper's hand shrank back, dragging the key backwards, and Ye Jingsheng fell into the void.

The corner of the shopkeeper's lips raised, and the smile was extraordinarily amiable, "Ten silver dollars for the deposit." ”

"Ten," Su Wan was startled, and her eyes couldn't help but widen. So expensive!

Ye Jingsheng just smiled, calmly withdrew his hand, and took out a banknote from the pocket of his suit, with a face value of ten silver dollars. "The shopkeeper is put away."

The shopkeeper smiled and nodded, took the banknote, and handed over the key to the room again, "Please keep it sir." ”

"Thank you." Ye Jingsheng took the key, nodded politely to the shopkeeper, and walked to the stairs on the side with Su Wan in his arms.

The shopkeeper watched the two of them walk up the stairs, humming a little song beautifully, bowing their heads, and moving the abacus to continue to calculate the accounts.

"Ten silver dollars, it's really expensive, the shopkeeper is obviously raising the price, Jingsheng, how can you still follow him." As soon as she entered the room, Su Wan said angrily.

Ye Jingsheng looked at the layout of the room, it was not very elegant, but it was still clean and comfortable.

"This shopkeeper is really black-hearted!" The more Su Wan talked, the more she felt that she had been fooled and was not worth it.

Ye Jingsheng looked at Su Wan's angry appearance and raised his eyebrows slightly. In my impression, this seems to be the first time this little girl has been so angry.

"Alright, Suwan." Ye Jingsheng pulled Su Wan's body and pulled Su Wan to sit on the stool next to the round table. "What is a merchant who does not seek profit? Now it's getting late, and it happens to be the peak of the flow of people, so the shopkeeper's price is not inappropriate. You don't have to take it too seriously. And the place is close to where we are looking for. In this way, it is also a lot more convenient. ”

"Hmm." Su Wan lowered her head and nodded, indicating acquiescence.

Ye Jingsheng rubbed Su Wan's hair, "Okay, don't think about it so much, go wash and sleep." The old rule, you sleep in the bed, and I will lie down on the soft couch. ”

Su Wan raised her head, followed Ye Jingsheng's voice and looked at the bed inside, and then looked at the place that Ye Jingsheng called the 'soft couch', which was just a very simple wooden bench. It's definitely hard to sleep on it. Su Wan thought about it, and her brows couldn't help frowning.

"What do you think?" Ye Jingsheng stretched out his finger and hooked the tip of Su Wan's nose, "Silly girl, hurry up and wash up and sleep well." It's been a bumpy ride on the boat these days, and the bones are falling apart. ”

The intimate action made Su Wan a little at a loss, so she could only lower her head to hide her panic and shyness, and hurriedly walked towards the bed, no longer looking at Ye Jingsheng.

Ye Jingsheng looked at Su Wan's figure sleeping on the bed with his back to him, and the smile on the corner of his lips was slightly retracted. There was a hint of depth in his eyes. Reaching out and pulling out the remaining banknotes from his suit, there wasn't much left.

Although there are no valuable items in the suitcase, you can save a lot of money by carrying them with you.

Now, I just hope that I can find my uncle soon.

Ye Jingsheng looked at Su Wan's back and felt more distressed.

Xu, he shouldn't have relented and brought her out in the first place.

Otherwise, it would not be displaced.

——

The sky gradually became clearer, and white light penetrated through the paper window, brightening up the room that had been soaked in darkness.

Su Wan stretched her waist slightly, rubbed her sleepy eyes, and looked at the furnishings in the room. After a while, I realized that I was not at home, but had arrived at an inn next to the Wuhan wharf. The memory came back to her mind, Su Wan sat up straight, and subconsciously went to find Ye Jingsheng. However, the room was empty, and the familiar figure was not to be found.

Su Wan's heart suddenly panicked, and she hurriedly got out of bed, and ran to the door before her shoes were put on.

"Squeak" The door was pushed open, and Ye Jingsheng stood at the door with a wooden plate, looking at Su Wan who suddenly rushed to the front and was slightly stunned.

Su Wan quickly stopped, looked at Ye Jingsheng who was standing at the door, and her heart calmed down in an instant. The whole tense nerve also relaxed.

"What, there's a youkai in the room? You were so scared that you ran out without even putting on your shoes. Ye Jingsheng hooked his lips and quipped. It's quite a bit like a prodigal boy at the beginning.

Su Wan lowered her head, looked at her exposed feet, silently put on her shoes, and stood in place obediently.

Ye Jingsheng walked in with a wooden plate and placed the porridge and side dishes on the table one by one. turned around, but saw Su Wan still standing at the door with her head down.

"Silly girl, don't you want to have breakfast at the door?" Ye Jingsheng raised his eyebrows and said jokingly.

Su Wan's head lowered more and more, and she slowly moved her little feet to the table.

Ye Jingsheng walked over, pressed Su Wan to sit on the stool, placed the porridge and chopsticks in front of her, and rubbed her hair, "Eat." As he spoke, he sat down as well.

Su Wan looked at the chopsticks in front of her and couldn't help but think of the scene when he put the chopsticks in her fingertips on the second day of the wedding.

The residual warmth seemed to have been lingering in her fingertips and never dissipated.

Ye Jingsheng looked at Su Wan, who was only stupidly looking at the chopsticks and did not move the chopsticks, raised his eyebrows slightly, and reached out to put the chopsticks in front of Su Wan and Su Wan's fingertips.

Su Wan was stunned for a moment, raised her head, and looked at Ye Jingsheng. Ye Jingsheng smiled, and hooked Su Wan's nose behind him, "You can't get enough just by looking at it, let's eat it." ”

Su Wan looked at Ye Jingsheng's face, and became more and more unable to understand his sudden tenderness. I just lowered my head in a daze, looking at the chopsticks on my fingertips, still as at the beginning, leaving residual warmth.

"After eating, you stay in your room, and I'll go out and find a place." Ye Jingsheng finished drinking a bowl of porridge, put down the chopsticks in his hand and said.

"Jingsheng." Su Wan hurriedly grabbed Ye Jingsheng, who was about to get up.

Ye Jingsheng was taken aback and looked at Su Wan.

Su Wan looked at Ye Jingsheng's puzzled expression and pursed her lips, "Jingsheng, I want to go too, can you take me with you?" ”

Ye Jingsheng frowned slightly, "Su Wan, I'm going to find someone, not to play, I'll be very tired,"

"I'm not afraid of getting tired!" Su Wan said decisively, "Jingsheng, take me with you, I won't be tired." ”

Looking at Su Wan's resolute and cautious eyes, Ye Jingsheng sighed secretly, and finally relented, "Then you eat first, and I'll take you with me after eating." ”

"Hmm." Su Wan, who got the response, nodded happily, withdrew her hand, picked up the chopsticks, and hurried to eat.

Ye Jingsheng sat down again, looking at Su Wan, who was speeding up to eat, and there were indescribable emotions in his heart.

He really didn't want her to suffer with him, because he couldn't give her the happiness she wanted.

If you can't give, why should you take it?

——

"Hello, have you ever met this person? Tall and skinny. ”

"No, no."

The trinket seller waved his hand impatiently and said casually.

"Okay, thank you." Su Wan's tone was a little lonely and low, looking at the photo in her hand, she thanked the vendor a little decadently.

The person in the photo is what my uncle looked like when he was young.
