Qiu Jingfan pondered for a moment, then suddenly remembered something, his eyes lit up, and he spoke.
"There really is such a place. It's located on the far left of Chaoyang Street in the south of the city. It's called Donghai Inn. Business isn't very good, but it's been open for many years because you can see the sea from there."
Lin Yuxin, having heard what she wanted to hear, immediately nodded in agreement:
"Let's go to the East Sea Inn!!"
...
Half an hour later, the group stood at the entrance of the East Sea Inn, their expressions somewhat blank.
"Qiu Jingfan, this isn't the inn you were talking about, is it?"
Lin Yuxin looked at the dilapidated signboard, the cobwebs crawling on the windows, and the dusty ground mixed with the smell of seawater, and questioned her life.
"It's this one. I remember it was fine when I left two months ago! Business was just a little bad, it wasn't this bad, was it?"
Qiu Jingfan also lost face; as the host, he had failed to maintain his composure and had lost all face.
Is this inn habitable?
Wang Yu swallowed hard, looking around the inn. If he stayed there tonight, would he be robbed in the middle of the night?
"Wang Yu! Go check it out!"
Without wasting any words, Li Xiaochen directly sent Wang Yu in to check the situation.
"yes!"
Wang Yu went in and came out shortly after. He looked at Li Xiaochen and Lin Yuxin, shook his head, and said:
"We couldn't find anyone; it's an empty house now."
Lin Yuxin pondered for a moment, then looked at Li Xiaochen and Qiu Jingfan and tentatively asked:
"Staying here tonight?"
Li Xiaochen glanced at her and nodded. Whatever Xin Xin wanted to do, he would support her!
"Okay, I'll stay here tonight!"
Qiu Jingfan had no objection; it didn't matter where they stayed.
However, after Lin Yuxin and the others went inside, Lin Yuxin did regret it for a moment. How long had it been since anyone had stayed at this inn?
The inn was completely deserted, empty and desolate, with a thick layer of dust on the tables, indicating that it had been uninhabited for a long time.
However, everything around is intact, so it can still be lived in after a little cleaning.
"Go and look around!"
Li Xiaochen pulled Lin Yuxin along, looked around warily, and then said something to Wang Yu.
"yes!"
Wang Yu accepted the order and then walked towards the backyard.
"Shall we go upstairs and take a look?"
Lin Yuxin looked up at the building, nodded to Li Xiaochen, and pointed upstairs.
"Um!"
Li Xiaochen nodded and pulled Lin Yuxin upstairs. Lin Yuxin then tightly protected Cheng Tinghao behind her and followed Li Xiaochen upstairs.
Qiu Jingfan followed cautiously behind them, fearing danger lurking around.
The restaurant was eerily empty.
As the four walked upstairs, a corridor appeared before them, with a door every few meters. Li Xiaochen and Qiu Jingfan opened each door one by one to check.
Nothing unusual was found. Lin Yuxin, who was following behind, also saw that apart from some dust, everything else was there and undamaged.
"What do we do now? Stay or not? Staying here is too risky, isn't it? Should we find somewhere else?"
Qiu Jingfan frowned as he looked at Lin Yuxin and the other person, and asked.
"Stay! Of course we'll stay! This house is empty, which makes things convenient for us, but we need to make sure no one is there beforehand."
Lin Yuxin glanced at Qiu Jingfan, noticing the worry on his face, and said calmly.
The most important thing is that the location is somewhat remote and closest to the sea, so if there is an accident, you can hide in the sea.
Besides, they've only just entered the Zhao state, and if they rush straight into Bianjing, they'll only be walking into the lion's den. Who knows what other tricks that madwoman Qiu Qiyi might have up her sleeve?
Lin Yuxin had made up her mind. They would stay here for now and go to Bianjing once there was progress on their end.
"Let's do it Xin Xin's way!"
Li Xiaochen nodded in agreement, leaving Qiu Jingfan rolling his eyes. So you two are all in cahoots, while I'm all alone? Serves me right for talking nonsense!
However, he didn't say anything else. Since they had decided to stay here, they had to be careful!
Li Xiaochen found a well-lit room and began cleaning it. His movements were clean and efficient, unlike anything a prince would do.
But Li Xiaochen did it so normally. Lin Yuxin and Cheng Tinghao helped him wipe the dust off the tables and chairs, and then he just sat there without moving.
As they began to enjoy their leisure time, Lin Yuxin even had the leisure to tell Cheng Tinghao some stories about the sea. Then she took out some fruit and snacks from her bag, and the two of them naturally started chatting.
Li Xiaochen changed the blankets, swept the floor, and wiped the cabinets all by himself. In short, apart from the table where Lin Yuxin and the others were sitting, Li Xiaochen cleaned almost the entire room by himself.
Qiu Jingfan, who was standing to the side, was stunned. He stared blankly at Lin Yuxin and the two of them, who seemed to be talking about something and laughing. Then he looked at Li Xiaochen, who was working hard. How could the way this couple got along be so strange?
He couldn't help but ask Li Xiaochen:
"Li Xiaochen, you're a prince, the God of War of Xia Kingdom, how can you do this kind of work?"
Qiu Jingfan's worldview was completely shattered. In his worldview, those in positions of power should do what those in positions of power should do. Along the way, he had seen Li Xiaochen help Lin Yuxin grill meat, feed her water, and carry her on his back.
He could see all of this as Li Xiaochen's affection for Lin Yuxin, but he never expected that Li Xiaochen would go to such lengths for Lin Yuxin.
