Chapter 228: Intentions
Qiao Qixin didn't explain, just glanced at Liu Zhan and motioned him not to speak. Z.br>
Liu Zhan understood, nodded, and retreated behind Qiao Qixin.
The old man glanced at Qiao Qixin with cloudy eyes, then took out an old abacus, flicked it a few times, and said, "One room, one or two silver a night, two, how many nights do you want to stay?"
His voice was old and muddy, a little terrifying, but Qiao Qixin, who had already prepared, was not frightened.
"I don't know how long it will take, so let's book three nights first." Qiao Qixin's tone was very polite to this old man.
"Three taels of silver." The old man said.
Qiao Qixin honestly took out her purse from her arms, took three taels of silver and put it on the counter, and pushed it in front of the old man.
The old man's cloudy eyes glanced at Qiao Qixin again.
He put away the money on the counter, didn't weigh it, stuffed it directly into the drawer and put it away, and then took out a large set of keys "Bang la la la".
Qiao Qixin looked at the half of the key with some greed, you must know that before the crossing, one of her most ideal occupations was to charter a wife.
Every day, he dragged flip-flops, carried a large bunch of keys, and carried a large bag specially for money...... Tut-tut, it's intoxicating to think about.
The old man picked the key, suddenly glanced at Qiao Qixin again, and then threw the large bunch of keys in front of her, and then Nunu said, "Pick one."
"Huh?" Qiao Qixin was stunned for a moment, then looked around, and pointed at herself in disbelief, "Me?"
"Hmm." The old man nodded, as if he didn't want to say any more nonsense.
The surprise came a little suddenly.
Qiao Qixin picked up a large bunch of keys on the counter, didn't hold back, and shook it in her hand.
"Whoa, la, laβ"
Ah, the sound of money.
Qiao Qixin sighed slightly, and then began to choose the key.
"There are large rooms and small rooms, double rooms and single rooms, I charge the money for a single room, as for what you choose in the end, it depends on your luck." The old man reminded him slowly.
Qiao Qixin pressed her raised eyebrows, and then took it from most of the keys and held it in the palm of her hand.
She didn't look at it, but put it on the counter.
The old man didn't take the key for a while, but lowered his head and said lightly, "Don't pick again?"
"Don't pick," said George, she thought about it, and added, "Life can't only be careful, but also have some courage to 'gamble'."
"Hehehe......" Behind the counter, the old man suddenly laughed.
His shoulders shrugged, and he was so thin that he could see the bulging bones on his back.
"It's an interesting ......," the old man muttered as if to himself, reaching for the key and squinting at the light.
"Yo, little girl, good luck." The old man smiled and put the key back on the countertop, and his cloudy pupils revealed a glimmer of essence, "Upstairs on the right hand, the third room is a double room."
The old man seemed to deliberately accentuate the last three words.
"Thank you, Grandpa." Qiao Qixin thanked her, then picked up the key and looked back at Liu Zhan, "Let's go."
"Okay."
Liu Zhan lowered his eyes and followed behind Qiao Qixin, and the two went up to the second floor together.
Qiao Qixin opened the door with the key, and it was indeed a double room.
"Qixin." Liu Zhan suddenly called.
"Huh?" Qiao Qixin, who was lying on the bed, sat up, "What's wrong?"
"That old man just ......" Liu Zhan hesitated, "It doesn't feel good to me."
Qiao Qixin raised her eyebrows, interested, "Oh? Why do you say that?"
γβ¦β¦ Feelings." After a moment of silence, Liu Zhan only held back two words.
It feels like this thing itself is mysterious, and it is difficult to express it.
Qiao Qixin nodded, "I probably understand what you mean, don't you think that old man makes you very uncomfortable?" It's as if he's always ready
Plotting against you?"
Such a statement was somewhat sensitive and self-inflicted, but Liu Zhan hesitated for a moment, but nodded honestly.
"Ah......" Qiao Qixin threw her head back on the bed, "Do you feel this way too?" Looks like there's some trouble."
"Why?" Liu Zhan didn't quite understand.
Qiao Qixin explained, "We both feel that this old man will be harmful, there are two possibilities, one, he just wants to harm us both and have bad intentions towards us, and second, he has bad intentions towards no one."
"However, my feelings are a little different from yours, I don't think he wants to hurt the two of us, so I prefer the second one, he has no ill intentions towards anyone."
Liu Zhan looked at Qiao Qixin and wondered, "But, wouldn't it be harmful to us if we don't have good intentions towards anyone?"
"No, no, no," Qiao Qixin shook her index finger, "Bad intentions towards the two of us, and, bad intentions towards everyone, are two different concepts."
"The former, the probability of him making a move on the two of us is very high, but the latter, the probability of him making a move on the two of us is very low."
Liu Zhan hesitated, "Do you want to change to a hotel?"
Georgette β_β? looked at Liu Zhan, "It's going to be dark soon, and when a bunch of people come out, wouldn't it be similar to that old man who shot at the two of us?"
"Anyway, it's a big deal to die," Qiao Qixin lay on the bed, "I still have some strength left before I die."
Liu Zhan lowered his eyes, struggled for a while, and found that what Qiao Qixin said was indeed right.
"Okay," he sighed, and then looked at Qiao Qixin seriously, "But, Qixin, don't talk about the big deal and die in the future, okay?" I'll protect you and won't let you have any problems."
Qiao Qixin, who was lying down, was inexplicably condemned by her conscience, and she had no choice but to say, "Okay...... I promise you that I won't just say I'm dead in the future."
