Heaven-Sent Farm Girl Builds Her Fortune And Captures His Heart-Chapter 603 - 602: Heading to Bright Moon City (5)
"Three rooms are enough," Le Zhao said, "can you make us a small meal?"
"Certainly!" The old man laughed, "Follow me, please."
Shen Qinglan looked around, frowning slightly.
"What’s wrong?" Noticing her unease, Duan Yunfei asked softly.
"Nothing," Shen Qinglan shook her head slightly, "just wondering why such a big manor feels so quiet?"
Xuan Ying said, "Miss Shen, you’re not aware. This was originally an empty village."
"An empty village?" Shen Qinglan frowned, "Why?"
Duan Yunfei said, "It’s a farmhouse, like an inn, so there aren’t any villagers."
"Like an inn?" Shen Qinglan was surprised, "Then why are there only three rooms left?"
It’s unlikely that so many people suddenly came to stay overnight.
"It’s not strange," Duan Yunfei said, "Some travelers bring a lot of people, so it’s normal for it to be fully occupied overnight."
Shen Qinglan thought it over and found it reasonable. Just like those noble families, they usually travel with many attendants.
"Here are the three rooms," the old man laughed, "The rest are occupied. You folks will have to make do."
The farmhouses are actually small wooden houses, with bright red lanterns hanging at the doors. They look dilapidated outside but are quite quaint inside.
The old man smiled, "Please sit for a while. I’ll go to the kitchen and have someone make you some food."
Xuan Ying nodded, "Go ahead."
Perhaps because it was their first time here, Shen Qinglan felt that this Lin Family Manor was filled with oddities everywhere.
She watched the old man leave and unconsciously frowned again.
"Why does that old man walk so nimbly yet need a cane?" Xuan Ying wondered.
"I have a feeling something’s not right," Shen Qinglan said, "Logic says with many people staying, it should be lively, so why is it so quiet?"
At this time, it was just the early evening, people shouldn’t be all asleep yet.
Duan Yunfei dismissed it, "No need to worry, as long as they don’t target us, all will be well."
"You noticed too?" Shen Qinglan was surprised.
"Yes," Duan Yunfei nodded slightly, "No need to worry, they’re probably not after us."
Le Zhao chuckled, "Looks like there’s going to be a good show tonight."
"A good show?" Xuan Ying said, "Aren’t you afraid they’ll silence you too?"
Le Zhao laughed, "Not worried, not worried. With your Young Master around, we’ll be safe even if we’re dead asleep."
Duan Yunfei said darkly, "If you’re dead asleep, I’ll finish you off with a stab."
Le Zhao gave him a long, unimpressed look then shrugged, "How ruthless!"
"So can we still eat dinner?" Xuan Ying spoke softly, "Won’t it be poisoned?" 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶
"Poisoned to death, unlikely; knocked out, likely," Xuan Ming said, "Of course, that’s assuming we’re not the targets."
"Hehe~" Xuan Ying laughed, "How about I go investigate first? If it’s remnants from Haoyue Manor, we can catch them all in one go."
Le Zhao raised an eyebrow, "If it really turns out like you think, what if you’re knocked out and taken away as soon as you step out?"
"How could that be?" Xuan Ying pouted, "Is my vigilance really that poor?"
"I’ll go with you," Shen Qinglan stood up, "I wanted to take a walk anyway."
Duan Yunfei laughed, "In that case, let’s all go together."
