She grabbed a swaddling cloth from somewhere, held it in her arms, and hummed a tune.
His hands were still gently patting the swaddling clothes.
"Damn, good boy."
This calmness did not last long. She suddenly stood up with her hair disheveled, raised the swaddling clothes in her hand high, and then dropped it heavily to the ground.
Li Si held his breath. He realized at the beginning that there was not a real baby in the swaddling clothes, but a ball of cloth.
Someone specially made such a swaddling cloth and pretended it was a child.
She smiled, but didn't smile, and twitched crazily twice.
Then at a certain moment he suddenly woke up and stared outside.
"Kill you!"
But he was only awake for a moment, and then he hurriedly picked up the swaddling clothes on the ground.
"My dear, are you hurt?"
As she spoke, she hummed a few times as usual, singing an unwritten tune.
Li Si looked for a while and slowly left the attic.
He thought about it and could probably guess a thing or two.
She is a poor woman, but I don’t know what the shopkeeper knows.
After returning to the room and reporting everything he had just seen, Lu Anan frowned.
"It seems that the owner was the one who hid someone in the attic."
No one else would have the ability to seal up the attic and keep that woman in it.
But... why did the shopkeeper do this?
Lu Anan walked to the window and looked out.
He Yao happened to come back. He stood at the door of the inn and suddenly looked up.
The two looked at each other, Lu Anan was stunned, and He Yao turned his face away and left immediately.
She was a little confused, and always felt that Xu Hesheng and He Yao had different attitudes towards her.
It can't be that... you know her identity, right?
Lu Anan frowned slightly.
It shouldn't be such a coincidence.
He Yao entered the inn and happened to meet the innkeeper.
Seeing his pale face and sweat on his forehead, she raised an eyebrow.
"The shopkeeper."
The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, then turned around and saw He Yao.
"He, He, Master."
He bowed respectfully, and Xu Hesheng told him He Yao's identity.
The shopkeeper naturally didn't dare to offend him.
"Where's the food I asked to be delivered?"
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "I'll send it over right away."
He Yao nodded: "By the way, give me some hot water."
The shopkeeper responded, "Wait, it will be here soon."
After he finished speaking, he hurried out.
He Yao looked at his back with a flickering look in his eyes.
This shopkeeper always feels like something is not right.
He Yao returned to his room. After closing the door, he suddenly remembered Lu Anan whom he had just met downstairs.
He was alone and it was difficult for him to ask, but looking at the scene they were in.
Either rich or noble.
He Yao sighed lightly, meddling in other people's affairs will only bring trouble.
but. . .
He turned around and looked towards the door. No matter what, he had better tell her in advance.
They will be able to prepare by then.
He pushed the door open and happened to meet Xu Hesheng coming out.
He Yao didn't expect it to be such a coincidence that the two of them were actually right across from each other.
Xu Hesheng was startled and bowed first: "Mr. Congratulations."
He Yao looked him over and chuckled, "Master Xu, this is not a place for you to stay for long."
After he finished speaking, he walked out, and Xu Hesheng was stunned.
"Mr. He...what does it mean?"
"It's nothing special. It's just that you Xu family members are so heartless and disloyal. You'd better get out of here and go back to Lanzhou."
Xu Hesheng frowned, wanting to say something.
But He Yao walked so fast that he disappeared before he could finish his words.
He Yao went downstairs and walked to the entrance to the second floor.
Standing there a little dazed.
This... There are so many houses, where does that woman live?
Before He Yao could figure out what was going on.
A door slowly opened.
It was Xiao Qi who walked out. As soon as he walked out, he saw He Yao next to him.
"Who are you?"
Xiao Qi was a little confused. He Yao was stunned and asked quickly.
"Excuse me, here is a long..."
He Yao was a little stuck and didn't know how to describe it.
Fortunately, Lu Anan heard the noise in the room and pushed the door open.
"Brother?"
Xiao Qi was stunned for a moment, then responded with a smile.
"younger sister!"
"Who are you?"
Lu Anan looked at He Yao who was standing beside him, and Chu Jinshen also came out.
He Yao was stunned, the similar eyebrows and eyes made him a little dazed.
It wasn't until Lu Anan repeated it again that He Yao reacted.
"My name... is He Yao."
Lu Anan's eyes curved, "Mr. He, what's the matter?"
Logically speaking, He Yao is of the same generation as her, so if we talk about their relationship, she might have to call him brother.
He Yao blushed immediately because of the laughter. He turned his face away and his voice was a little stammering.
"Yes, there are some things I need to tell you."
Chu Jinshen frowned immediately: "What's the matter? Just tell me."
Lu Anan obviously heard the jealousy in his voice and gently tugged at his sleeve.
"Ah Shen."
Chu Jinshen looked at the hand holding his, then looked at He Yao and turned sideways.
"Come in and talk."
Chu Jinshen pulled Lu Anan in first, and He Yao followed closely behind.
Xiao Qi tilted his head and looked for a while, then followed him in.
Chu Jinshen didn't speak until the door was closed.
"Mr. He, what's the matter?"
Lu Anan was also full of curiosity.
"Someone is going to attack you tonight."
Chu Jinshen tightened his grip on Lu Anan's hand and looked up at He Yao.
"Who is it?"
He Yao thought for a moment and said, "What I heard when I went out today should be the bandits nearby."
Bandits?
Lu Anan seemed to be lost in thought.
If they were bandits, they would probably attack Xu Hesheng and the others.
but. . .
Why are you staring at her?
"Mr. He, what else did you hear?"
He Yao paused: "They will take action tonight."
Lu Anan raised his eyebrows slightly: "Want to take action?"
"Hit me?"
"Then let them come. I want to see who kidnaps whom."
He Yao was stunned; "But..."
No matter how he looked at Lu Anan, she was always a delicate woman. How could she be so open-minded?
"They are vicious and ferocious, so it's better to be careful."
The deer was slapped away. An An glanced at Chu Jinshen beside him.
"Don't worry, Mr. He. By then...it's still unclear who will get into trouble."
Seeing her so confident, He Yao became even more worried.
"Those bandits killed people without mercy. They are not good people."
"No matter what, safety comes first."
Lu Anan nodded: "Thank you, Master He, we will be more careful."
She thought for a moment and continued, "But Mr. He also needs to be careful."
"Don't worry, I have some skills to be able to travel around the world."
He Yao swung the sword in his hand.
"Tonight... I'll come and meet up with you guys."
Just as he was about to push the door and leave, he suddenly heard this.
Lu Anan nodded.
"I want to see where this bandit comes from."
