Fan Xiaoqi walked to the counter in the inn and gently pushed the shopkeeper who was sleeping with his chin propped up.

"Hey, hey, shopkeeper, wake up!" Fan Xiaoqi shouted in the owner's ear in the smallest voice possible.

So, the shopkeeper finally slowly opened his slightly dim eyes. After blinking blankly and looking around for a moment, he finally regained his senses and came to his senses.

"Oh...... Guest, where do you stay?" the shopkeeper's pronunciation was slightly choked and trembling slightly. Obviously, it was caused by someone who had just woken up from his sleep.

"yes, I'd like to stay with you for one night. Fan Xiaoqi replied politely and in a whisper.

"Oh...... Please wait. The shopkeeper bowed down and took out an old, yellowed 'ledger' from a drawer under the counter. Then, he moved a small candle on the counter, as close to the ledger as possible, and carefully flipped it to look at it.

After a while, the shopkeeper raised his head and frowned slightly, showing a look of embarrassment. Then he took back the embarrassment, replaced it with a polite smile, and said politely: "Ouch, I'm sorry." Sir. Our shop is full today. ”

"Is it full?" Fan Xiaoqi asked with a look of disappointment and a little surprise.

"Yes, our store is usually very deserted. But just in time, business came today. All six rooms in our store were given at once. The shopkeeper continued to explain with a smile.

"What? this ......" Fan Xiaoqi's expression was slightly panicked, and he was a little dumbfounded.

The owner of the "......" shop saw from the look of the young man in front of him that he had a strong desire to stay. So he rolled his dim eyes, thought for a moment and said, "If this guest officer really wants to stay in our hotel for one night...... Well, I have an idea. ”

"What's the idea?" Fan Xiaoqi asked eagerly.

"Although all six rooms have been rented out. However, one of the two-person suites was occupied by only one person. Kindness...... I'll make a deal with you, and if any of the guests agrees, can you consider staying with him for one night? After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he showed a smile expecting Fan Xiaoqi to agree with his point of view.

"Oh, that's right. Fan Xiaoqi nodded knowingly, and the disappointment on his face suddenly decreased by seven or eight points.

"The one who stayed in the two-person suite was this guest officer. The shopkeeper pointed to Li Erbao, who was sitting at the table and drunk, and said.

"It's him......" Fan Xiaoqi was so frightened that he almost didn't call out on the spot.

"Well, what's the matter, you don't want to ...... with him," the shopkeeper asked with a puzzled expression.

"Yes, it's not. I...... I suddenly thought of a solution, in fact, I can completely ...... There is a floor shop in this restaurant!" Fan Xiaoqi stammered for a long time, and finally thought of a compromise.

"Oh, oh!" the shopkeeper was slightly surprised after listening to Fan Xiaoqi's words. Then he said politely with a smile: "That's okay, as long as you're not afraid of catching a cold, you can sleep anywhere." After a slight pause, the shopkeeper rolled his eyes a few times and then said, "But, the price...... The price still can't be changed. Because, you know our small business......"

"Understand, understand!" Fan Xiaoqi smiled and said, "Don't worry, I won't lose your rent." ”

The shopkeeper smiled and nodded, but did not answer.

"En......" Fan Xiaoqi touched his smooth chin, thought for a while and asked, "By the way, do you still have wine and food now?"

"Yes, of course, what do you want to order? Just order, although our shop is a little smaller, but ......" The owner explained politely with his signature smile.

But just then, a loud voice came from behind them, interrupting the shopkeeper's gushing lines.

"What are you two talking about secretly?" ?......," Li Erbao shouted to them drunkenly.

The shopkeeper and Fan Xiaoqi glanced at Li Erbao at the same time, only to see Li Erbao staring at them with a drunken expression.

Fan Xiaoqi's heartbeat quickened, and he thought: Oh no, it looks like I was recognized by him. If that's the case...... I'm still in time to run. After all, he's already drunk, so it shouldn't be easy to catch me.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but clench his fists, change his advantageous stance, and be ready to fight back and run away at any time.

"Guest, what are you talking about drunkenness? Aren't I introducing the dishes of our restaurant to this guest?" the shopkeeper looked at the drunk Li Erbao and explained without bothering.

"Oh, so this brother wants to eat some food......? Okay, okay, let's have a drink together, how about it?" Li Erbao continued to laugh drunkenly.

When Fan Xiaoqi heard this, his face calmed again, and he began to guess and think in his heart. It seemed that his drunken mind was dizzy. But...... Could it be that he was pretending to tease me first......?

Just when Fan Xiaoqi's heart was tossing and turning, the shopkeeper whispered in his ear to comfort him: "Guest officer, don't pay attention to him." Drunks are like this, the more you pay attention to him, the more energetic he becomes, let's let him call alone for a long time, and he will naturally be quiet!"

So, Fan Xiaoqi turned his head to the shopkeeper and smiled politely to express his gratitude. Immediately, he turned around and continued to look at Li Erbao, guarding against his every move.

"Eh, come, come, come, don't be embarrassed, brother invites you to drink today. Let's get drunk and rest!" As he spoke, Li Erbao was already holding a wine glass, stood up, and walked towards Fan Xiaoqi.

"Little Er, Little Er, come out quickly, someone is making trouble!" The shopkeeper saw that the situation was not good, and began to call people.

A moment later, the curtain of a side door next to the dining room was opened. A ten-year-old young man in a servant's costume walked out quickly. As soon as the young man went out, he looked around with a slightly nervous face, and then turned his head to look at the shopkeeper's face, waiting for his order.

"Hurry, stop him!" the shopkeeper hurriedly pointed at Li Erbao and ordered.

So, the shopkeeper gritted his teeth and quickly ran in front of Li Erbao. However, before he could gain a firm foothold, he was kicked by Li Erbao on the back of his knee and fell to the ground on the spot!

The shopkeeper was naturally dumbfounded. And Fan Xiaoqi also took this opportunity to run to a corner of the house farthest from Li Erbao and dodged. Of course, he didn't run out of the inn. Because he understands that although the situation is a little bad now, the good thing is that Li Erbao is already drunk, at least it looks like he is already drunk. Therefore, it is better to stay here than to run to the barren mountains and mountains to feed the wild beasts.
