C37 Feeling guilty?

Lu Jinfeng looked around, his face completely red, he bit his lips and hesitated: "But you are not my wife, I cannot let you sleep with me, it would ruin my reputation."

Oh wow, he was afraid of ruining her reputation, or at least her reputation.

A narrow-minded man was simply enough to make one want to … A beating!

"I've never been your wife, but didn't I sleep in the same room as you in the past?"

Her eyes had a deeper meaning as she looked at Lu Jinfeng's bed. Lu Jinfeng's face was red and white, no one knew what she was thinking, but after a long while, she suddenly stood up.

"Then sleep on the bed."

So self-aware? He was willing to sacrifice himself?

Chen Mu Mu Mu looked at him doubtfully, "Are you sure that I need to lie down?"

Hearing this ambiguous words, Lu Jinfeng's face turned completely red again. He twisted his neck and even thoughhee knew that he couldn't clearly see his expression at night, she still didn't dare to look straight into her eyes.

"If you want to sleep, then sleep. You really have a lot of nonsense to say."

His heart was good, but his mouth was cheap.

Chen Mu stretched his back and walked to the door, "Forget it, I won't disturb your sleep. It's quite comfortable next door."

"Wait." Lu Jinfeng panicked. He walked two steps forward and grabbed her arm.

"Why, do you really want me to sleep on your bed and cover you with the quilt that you used?" Chen Mu snickered, a mischievous look on his face.

"What nonsense are you spouting?" Lu Jinfeng's face was extremely hot, he felt that the distance between them was so close that he almost transferred his heat onto her. As if he was electrocuted, he retracted his hand and turned around, "I just wanted to tell you, your room might not be safe, if you're afraid, you can stay here with me."

Chen Mu's heart was moved, "Why do you say that, you heard that strange cry?"

"Yes." Lu Jinfeng nodded, "There might be something wrong."

"Ghost your grandpa, death is like extinguishing a lamp, there is no such thing as a ghost in this world." Chen Mu Mu retorted unhappily, "Could it be that you've never considered the fact that the weeping originated from the living?"

"If he was a living person and cried so miserably, I'm afraid he would have been in an inhuman situation." Remembering that he was almost killed by the two men in black just now, Lu Jinfeng quivered and said resolutely, "You can be afraid of ghosts, but you have to be on guard. Something bad has already happened, so you should rest at my place for a while.

Hearing the worry in Lu Jinfeng's words, Chen Mu thought for a moment, and did not refute, and only said: "I'm going to bring a blanket over, I can't really let you hit a bed."

This inn was extremely weird. Not to mention that the woman in front of him was crying without any signs of fear, the two assassins behind her, and the huge inn must have had a few living people. Why did Lu Jinfeng and the two assassins almost tear up the house but not one of them came out to watch the fight?

There must be something strange going on. Of course she wasn't afraid of ghosts, she was only afraid of those who wanted to do something.

Who knew how many more strange things this inn was hiding. In the worst-case scenario, she and Lu Jinfeng might even lose their lives here and sail this ship carefully for tens of thousands of years.

The two of them were very careful, but in the second half of the night, everything went smoothly. Even until dawn, nothing else happened.

"If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have been so greedy. I would have saved myself dozens of copper coins. I wouldn't have even been able to sleep at ease now." Chen Mu stretched lazily, stretching his muscles and bones.

It was rare for Lu Jinfeng not to say anything, the two of them had just gotten up when a waiter brought a bucket of water from outside and Lu Jinfeng opened the door and allowed him in.

"Customer, the items in the room are seriously damaged, you have to compensate me!" Seeing the mess in the room, the waiter's face flashed with surprise, and then he reminded Jiang Chen.

This surprise did not seem like the shock of seeing a house destroyed, but rather the shock of seeing tables, chairs, and other things not completely destroyed.

This waiter had a huge problem.

Chen Mu Mu smiled, "Let's put aside the compensation. However, I have something that I need your guidance on."

The waiter's attitude was neither humble nor humble. He said, "Dear customer, please ask. This humble servant will definitely speak without reserve."

She was truly humble, so she wasn't polite at all. "Last night, someone entered the room to rob you. You all slept downstairs. Did you not hear that?"

"A burglary?" The waiter was stunned and quickly tried to clear up the relationship, "Customer, please do not misunderstand. Although our inn is a little crude, but it is definitely a legitimate business and not a mafia store. We will not arrange for anyone to rob our guest of his finances."

Pausing for a moment, he mumbled softly, "Even if you want to rob, the two of you don't seem to be rich."

That was the truth, but the two men in black from last night didn't seem like they were trying to steal something. How could it be as sharp and bright as a thief's sword? It was clearly meant to kill. Furthermore, the mysterious and bizarre Lin Shenqiang also said that those were assassins.

Chen Mu was quiet for a moment, then Lu Jinfeng spoke up for her: "Then tell me honestly, did you hear the noise last night?"

Well done, that's what I need to ask.

The waiter had a troubled look on his face. Under the aggressive gaze of the two pairs of eyes, he could not hold it in any longer and could only nod. "I heard you."

"If you hear it, why don't you come take a look? After all, this is your inn. Don't you worry about something happening?" When Lu Jinfeng heard this, he could not help but be angry.

"It's useless to worry. Thieves won't come after us. What should happen still needs to happen. Doing business is naturally better off with less things to do." The waiter said confidently, "There won't be any desperate criminals in the town. The two of you have lost a lot of money, so isn't everything alright now?"

"You're really sharp tongue." Chen Mu was so infuriated that he laughed. "It can't be that your owner gave you any benefits, speaking up for him at all times."

"The owner is my uncle." The waiter smiled, "If the two esteemed guests have nothing else, I'll be leaving first. There are still some matters to attend to downstairs, but the compensation for damaging the tables and chairs must not be lacking at all."

Chen Mu Mu sneered, "He and I nearly lost our lives because we stayed at your inn, and you still dare to ask us for compensation?"

"We only saw the two guests destroying the inn's items. As for the thieves, we didn't see them. If you are not convinced, you can go to the county magistrate. " The waiter was not afraid of her and returned the favor.

"You are all still proud of yourselves!" Chen Mu smacked the bed. "Tell your shopkeeper to come up!"

"The shopkeeper is busy. The customer can go down and find him by himself." As the waiter said this, he turned around and went downstairs.

Chen Mu Mu Mu's anger was stifled in his throat. "If you want to just let it go like that, there's no chance of success!"

This inn's location was indeed remote, and no one knew how many people stayed in yesterday. When Chen Mu and Lu Jinfeng went downstairs, other than the shopkeeper, no one else could be seen. It was still breakfast time, but there wasn't even a single customer.

Chen Mu Mu and Lu Jinfeng looked at each other, their hearts pounding.

"I heard that you guys destroyed our store's items, yet you still want us to compensate you?" When the shopkeeper saw them, he put down his abacus and placed his elbow on the table.

"Shouldn't it?" Chen Mu Mu Mu was not to be outdone, "We were in your inn when we met up. You will naturally take responsibility for the shock and injury."

"Something happened?" The shopkeeper looked her and Lu Jinfeng up and down, then said, "The two of you are fine, you don't even have missing arms or legs."

"You call this good?" Chen Mu Mu pointed to the fresh blood scar on his neck, then rolled Lu Jinfeng's arm and pointed at the bruises on it, "Don't tell me you fell and injured yourself."

"If you have the ability, go and complain to the government." The storekeeper only glanced at it before withdrawing his gaze and moving the abacus beside his hand, "Don't say that these small injuries have nothing to do with us. Even you don't have evidence to say that we did it. Take responsibility for the trouble you cause yourself. "

"But what happened in your shop, you can forget about it." Chen Mu Mu narrowed her eyes, "Shopkeeper, do you think that he really doesn't have any tricks up his sleeve, that he and I were able to stay safe and sound after causing such a huge ruckus last night?"

The shopkeeper's fingers that were in the abacus suddenly stopped and he raised his eyes. "Then what do you want to do?"

"I'm not being too excessive. As long as you withdraw the money from our room, it'll be fine. As for those broken tables and chairs, who's in charge of finding them?"

What happened last night shouldn't have anything to do with the storekeeper. It was just that her attitude towards him and the waiter made her unhappy, so she wanted to make trouble for him. Even if it didn't have any effect, it would be better to add some obstruction to him. The shopkeeper thought for a moment and actually nodded his head.

"Alright."

The shopkeeper had been too straightforward, and Chen Mu was a little taken aback when he saw their money being pushed onto the counter.

It was not a good thing to swallow his anger after suffering such a loss.

However, having money was not a bad thing for her.

Chen Mu Mu grabbed the money on the counter and kept it, then called out to Lu Jinfeng, "Let's go."

The shopkeeper and the waiter watched them leave the inn, but did not say anything to stop them.

Lu Jinfeng frowned: "There's something weird about this inn."

"Of course there's something strange." Chen Mu Mu Mu's face turned ugly, "Destroying someone's things is only natural, yet the shopkeeper is actually willing to pay the money after being cheated. It's not that simple."

As for her 'means', she was just a paper tiger. She didn't believe that the shopkeeper would be fooled by a single sentence from her.

Lu Jinfeng's brows twitched. "Chen Mu Mu, do you know that the innkeeper is not simple?

"I didn't sleep well last night, and I even had a wound on my neck. How could I bear with it?" Chen Mu touched the wound on his neck and paused for a moment. "I forgot to ask for compensation from him. I was injured in his inn."

"Just don't get ahead of yourself. No one can blame you for getting injured like that." Lu Jinfeng was afraid that she would go back and seek revenge, so he grabbed her.

"Then blame you?" Chen Mu Mu tilted his head and looked at him, "You were the one who injured me, so you want to compensate for the medical expenses?"

"Me." Lu Jinfeng opened his mouth to speak, but he choked. After a long while, he said, "Who said that the killers last night were after me? I'm just a young lad from the village, who would buy an assassin to kill me?

Chen Mu Mu replied, "Hur Hur."

Continue bullshitting. You sure are thick-skinned!

The two of them came out with empty stomachs. Their stomachs were growling from hunger, so they decided to eat something by the roadside to fill their stomachs.

Seeing the two coming over, the owner of the Primal Chaos Restaurant greeted them with a smile, "Fresh and hot Primal Chaos. It's only two copper coins for a bowl. Would you like two bowls?"

While he was hungry, two coins was not expensive, Chen Mu Mu Mu nodded, and pulled Lu Jinfeng to find a place to sit.

However, the business of the Chaos booth seemed to be quite good. There were almost no free seats left.

He couldn't possibly eat it standing up, right?

Chen Mu Mu Mu Mu was a little worried.
