Chapter 787: Can only walk around
Mrs. Liu glanced at the brocade box. She was very reluctant, so she said to the clerk: “Keep these for me, I will come back to buy it.”
The clerk’s eyes rolled immediately, then turned around and ignored her.
He has seen so many guests like this. They can’t afford it, they still want to pretend.
The three of them left the Cui Jewelry Shop and went to the place where Mrs. Liu and Bai Xiaofeng lived.It’s a nice, grand and elegant inn. The rooms were very spacious and bright.
“Are you used to living here?” Bai Zhenzhu asked politely.
Mrs. Liu waved her hand: “Compared with the previous house, it’s too ugly. This broken room is also full of walls that I bump into it just after taking a few steps. If you want to walk around, you needed to go outside. I am worried about the expenses every day, I don’t know if I can keep paying for this room, so the two of us, mother and son, can only wait for you outside the street.”
Bai Zhenzhu was really annoyed this time. This Liu Guihua couldn’t utter a word except for money. She wishes she could give her money every day. She spent money endlessly and lavishly. If she doesn’t have money to live in such a good inn, why don’t she rent a cheap room? She just wanted to eat ready-made food all day long and don’t want to do anything.
“Auntie, as long as you help me pass this level, I guarantee that both you and Xiaofeng will have a good life. And Xiaofeng will definitely be an official in the future.”
Mrs. Liu immediately became interested: “You tell me, what is going on?”
Bai Zhenzhu narrate what happened. When Mrs. Liu heard of it she had a cold sweat: “You mean Pei Qinghan doesn’t want to care about you anymore? Even your maidservants were taken away? No one is left?”Bai Zhenzhu nodded her head: “There is no one left. It seems that he is serious this time, but I, Bai Zhenzhu is not easy to provoke.”
Bai Xiaofeng said: “When you came, is there someone following you on the road?”
Bai Zhenzhu shook her head: “No, who will follow me?”
Bai Xiaofeng was furious: “Stupid if Pei Qinghan had sent someone to follow you, wouldn’t he find us here?”
Mrs. Liu hurriedly said, “No! If he wants to catch us, he can do it just now in the jewelry shop, why wait until now?”
Bai Xiaofeng also wanted to understand this: “No matter what, it’s always good to be careful.”
Bai Zhenzhu immediately walked to the window. She opened the window and looked outside. People were coming and going in the street. She could not see a familiar face, so she closed the window again.
“Auntie, we must give Pei Qinghan a little warning, and let him know that we are not easy to provoke. He should follow our intentions. Otherwise, he will know that we have the ability to make him eat soil on the ground.”
Mrs. Liu asked: “what are we going to do?”
Bai Zhenzhu opened her mouth to speak. However, before she could say the strategy she had been pondering last night, the door of the room was kicked open.
Pei Qinghan’s cold face appeared in front of them.
Then seven to eight burly men behind Pei Qinghan immediately surrounded the three of them.
“Let’s talk about it, how do you plan to make me eat soil from the ground?” Pei Qinghan stared at Bai Zhenzhu with cold eyes.
Bai Zhenzhu said with a pale face: “No, I didn’t mean that I, I just—”
“Since you didn’t mean it, then you don’t need to say another word.” Pei Qinghan raised his hand. The burly men immediately tied the three together. To prevent them from talking nonsense, they also stuffed cloth balls in their mouths. The three could only whine. They couldn’t fight back at all.
“Take them back.” As soon as Pei Qinghan gave an order, the burly men dragged the three out of the room and searched all over the surroundings. Except for some scattered silver and some clothes, there was nothing useful.
