Chapter 204: Something Happened
In the second half of the night, Xu Qingchen didn't sleep soundly, he got up from time to time and secretly glanced outside. Around the end of the day, he saw Qin Zhiyang leave with two subordinates, and not long after, the two Hu women also left the room.
Since he stayed overnight here and didn't sleep until morning, it seemed that Qin Zhiyang's vigilance was quite high.
Ayahan has recently lost all the alertness she has cultivated over the years. Before, she was alone in the rivers and lakes, and she had to rely on herself for everything, and a wind and grass could wake her up. Now having Xu Qingchen by her side every night reassures her a lot, so much so that Xu Qingchen couldn't wake her up after getting out of bed several times in the middle of the night.
Early the next morning, the two came out of the back door of the restaurant, and did not rush back to the inn, but found a place to eat some breakfast.
He looked at this Ayahan's increasingly ruddy face these days, and suddenly said, "When the business here is over, let's go to Yangzhou."
Ayahan asked, "Aren't you going back to the Thorn Gate?" As the hall master, you can't go out for months at once, right?"
"I'm the hall master by name, and I don't have anyone under me. Miss Li said that she wouldn't do anything to Yeyu Xiaozhu in the short term, and now I won't need me when I go back. Besides, I haven't seen my eldest brother and sister-in-law for half a year."
Ayahan asked in a low voice, "This time I went to Yangzhou...... Do you really want to propose?"
"Of course it's true."
"Don't you want to wait for revenge?"
Xu Qingchen looked at the people on the street who were gradually getting more and more, and replied, "Before I met you, I probably only had revenge. Now that I have you by my side, I have to think about it more...... After arriving in Yangzhou, when we meet my eldest brother and sister-in-law, let's get married."
These words startled Ayahan, and the naan in her hand didn't grasp it firmly and fell to the ground.
"No, isn't it just a marriage proposal?"
Xu Qingchen said seriously: "Anyway, we have to get married, it makes no difference if it's a few days earlier or a few days later. And...... I don't have any relatives or friends, so I don't have to run to tell each other."
"That, that, that, and Feng Lan."
"I'll write to the idlers in two days, and when we get to Yangzhou, they'll definitely have received the news."
"But, the date is not yet set."
"I don't know my birthday, so it's just a matter of when everyone is together. I really can't just find a good day close to it."
"Why are you in such a hurry?" Ayahan's premarital phobia suddenly flares up, and the person becomes extremely resistant.
Xu Qingchen said solemnly with a bitter face, "Silly girl, I don't want to be in such a hurry, but if you think about it carefully, something happened in the middle."
Ayahan wondered for a moment, "What's wrong?"
Aya didn't eat much, she had eaten almost enough just now, seeing that she still didn't understand, Xu Qingchen hurriedly settled the bill, and then pulled her up and went back to the inn. The two entered the house, Xu Qingchen closed the door, and asked in a whisper in Ayahan's ear, "Why didn't I dare touch you for so long before?"
When she said this, Ayahan was a little angry: "Because you're an elm pimple."
Xu Qingchen sighed and gently put his hand on her stomach: "Because I'm really afraid of accidents...... Although the eldest brother and sister-in-law tried their best to match us, but before you got married, you had a big belly, with the temper of the eldest brother, would you beat me to death? Let's finish the things here, and then go to Yangzhou, it will take two or three months...... If you happen to be hit a few days ago, your stomach will probably be able to see it by then."
As soon as she said this, Ayahan realized how naïve she was. Since being chased by Xu Qingchen, she found that her brain was becoming more and more insufficient. That is, the master died early, if the master is still alive, and the mess between the two is known to his old man, no matter how powerful Xu Qingchen is, it is estimated that he will not be able to beat the master and the senior brother together.
She regretted it, why was she angry that night?
Ayahan hesitated and said, "How, what should I do? What if something happens?"
Xu Qingchen smiled angrily: "I thought you were out of the way, and you didn't think about it at all? What else can I do? Go back to Yangzhou as soon as possible."
"We can write to Senior Brother now! Let them meet us somewhere in between
! You don't have to go to Yangzhou! Right? That's a month to spare!"
"Hey...... You calm down, it's not like something is going to happen. Can my sister-in-law's body still withstand the rush?"
Ayahan was completely dead, and looked at Xu Qingchen helplessly: "Brother Qingchen...... If...... If something really happens, will I be laughed at by them?"
Xu Qingchen said with a smile, "You are usually not afraid of heaven and earth, and you have a lot of ghost ideas, now you know that you are afraid? Wasn't it quite reasonable to teach me a lesson that night? It's not ...... these nights."
Ayahan covered his mouth: "Don't say it!"
Xu Qingchen took Ayahan's hand away: "Don't worry, it's a good thing that something happened, no one laughs at you." When we get to Yangzhou and become relatives, you can live with your eldest brother and sister-in-law, and don't go back to Thorn Gate with me."
"Why?"
"The night I went to chase you, Yang Fan told me that you may have the consciousness to die with me. At that time, I felt that I understood your heart, and even if I had to die together in the future, I would accept you. But during this time, I thought about it a little more, and if something happened to me, I still hope that you can live well. I did something stupid the other day and almost killed both of us here, and it scared me. I avenge the Yao family, Miss Yao loves me, you never care that I see Miss Yao in front of you. You are a person who loves and hates, and I can't spoil your heart, and I can't ask you to do more for me. In the next few days, you stay at the inn, I think I can do it alone. Don't worry, I won't do anything stupid, if I really can't do it, let's just leave Suzhou, and as for revenge, you can push it back."
Ayahan's eyes drooped, and she thought seriously for a long time: "I don't worry about you alone."
"I'm even more worried about you following me, be obedient, obedient."
Ayahan looked up at him, "I'll allow you to go there alone tonight, but I'll have to keep watch outside."
"Okay," Xu Qingchen said with a smile, "You finally gave in."
After speaking, Xu Qingchen picked up Ayahan and walked to the bed.
Ayahan exclaimed, "Hey! You...... ...... in the morning"
"To put you at ease at night."
"Didn't you just say that you were afraid of something?"
"It's not bad this time."
…
Ayahan changed into dark clothes and hid in a restaurant not far from the Big Food Restaurant. She sat down on the second floor by the window facing the street, with a jug of wine in front of her, and her eyes glanced at the restaurant from time to time. The inn where she is located is very full of rivers and lakes, and most of the people who come and go are knights with swords and swords, and her outfit is not conspicuous.
At the door, Xu Qingchen had already walked in.
As he thought, Qin Zhiyang didn't come today.
The first two times they came here, the maid who was responsible for receiving them was the same person, and this time it was her. Xu Qingchen swept around, only to find that the restaurant seemed to be very large, but there were not many customers, so there were only two people running the hall.
"Didn't Childe bring that young lady with him this time?" The woman joked as she poured her wine.
Xu Qingchen just nodded.
The woman asked again, "What is Childe going to eat this time?"
"And half a roast leg of lamb."
"Okay, wait a minute."
The woman stood up, and when she walked to the entrance of the cubicle, she turned around and asked mysteriously, "Does Childe need to be accompanied?"
"Uh......" Xu Qingchen pretended to hesitate, "uh...... No need."
The woman whispered, "Don't worry, Childe, we have a lot of family guests like you."
"Really, really don't need it."
The woman continued to persuade, "We don't have many girls here, if you hesitate for a while, you will be picked on by others."
"What," Xu Qingchen rubbed his nose, "You...... Call me two...... No, just one."
Hearing Xu Qingchen's relent, the woman's eyes lit up: "What does Childe want?"
"That's it...... Fine, no, can I pick one?"
"Of course, you can come with me."
Xu Qingchen followed the woman to stand up and walk towards the back hall, he also took the opportunity to pretend to be a thief and look around, he was looking at the women who were held in the arms of the guests, wanting to see if there were the two who served Qin Zhiyang.
There was a large room in the back hall, and that big room had windows, but there was no window paper. The house was brightly lit, but outside it was dark. This is done so that the people in the house can't see what is going on outside.
There are many women in the house, all of them are lustful women, and all of them are outstanding in appearance. Some of them gathered together to talk and chat, and some of them were alone. Xu Qingchen's eyes quickly scanned the women in the room, trying to find the two women that Qin Zhiyang frequented.
After looking for a long time and not finding it, Xu Qingchen was a little puzzled.
Seeing that he didn't speak, the woman smiled and said, "Childe, you can pick slowly, but our girls can't wait."
Xu Qingchen figured it out, it seems that this restaurant is to watch people serve food.
He cleared his throat and asked, "Is there anything better?"
The woman smiled mysteriously, "Better ones aren't cheap."
Xu Qingchen took out a piece of silver and handed it to the woman, saying, "Don't worry about money."
The woman held the money in her hand and smiled, "Childe come with me."
He followed the woman for a while, and stopped again in front of a large house. Sure enough, there are "better" ones, but there are a lot fewer of them than in the previous room.
There were few people, and he saw the two women at a glance.
After a moment of pretending to pick on, he said, "That's it, the one in blue."
I didn't dare to call both at once, for fear of suspicion.
"Childe, you go to the compartment and wait for a while, the girl will come over in a while."
"Okay."
Xu Qingchen returned to the cubicle, and after a while, the Hu woman he named walked into the cubicle step by step, and her posture was very bewitching.
Xu Qingchen didn't dare to look up at his face, mainly because he was afraid that Ayahan would be angry if he found out.
The woman took the opportunity to sit next to Xu Qingchen, he hurriedly flashed and said, "Sit on the opposite side."
The Hu woman was not surprised, in her mind, the first Han man who came here to call the girl was like this, at first he would pretend to be honest, and it would not be long before he would be like those regular customers.
The Hu woman sat down obediently opposite and skillfully helped Xu Qingchen pour wine.
Xu Qingchen regretted it and found that he didn't know how to speak at all.
But the Hu woman knew that they had seen too many shy guests, and knew how to pry their mouths open and make them obediently open their money bags.
