Chapter 431: Inexplicable Affinity
The proprietress looked like a caring elder sister and said:
"Oh, sister, you spent so much money to live in a small room, but how can you have the nerve to let you clean up by yourselves? Let me do it! I'm quick and can finish it quickly."
Annan didn't buy her trick: "If you're worried that we'll lose money, you can refund us the difference."
The proprietress smiled awkwardly: "What is this little girl talking about! It's really not easy for us..."
Halfway through his words, he saw that Annan looked a little impatient, so he had to compromise:
"Okay, I won't bother you anymore. I hope you have a comfortable stay. Just let me know if you need anything!"
Annan waved his hand, indicating that she could go out.
The proprietress was about to turn around and leave when two female voices suddenly came from outside the door.
"Boss lady, have you seen Shen Ao?"
"Madam, have you relocked the door on the first floor?"
The proprietress raised the candle in her hand and turned around, meeting the anxious eyes of Shengxia and Fang Yaoyao outside the door.
She first gave Annan an apologetic smile, and then said to the two girls, "Let's go out and talk. These two guests need to rest."
Annan suddenly said, "Let's talk about it here. What's the matter?"
The proprietress glanced at Annan.
Fang Yaoyao and Shengxia pulled the proprietress aside and asked again.
The lady boss replied, "Before, Shen Ao came to the bar on the first floor and asked me if he could stay in the room next to yours for a night. After I agreed, he happily took the key and went upstairs. I haven't seen him since."
"As for the door downstairs, I didn't touch it. Your eldest brother locks it himself every day. I don't care about that."
After the lady boss answered, she looked at them with some confusion: "What's wrong? Did something happen?"
Fang Yaoyao frowned and muttered, "That's really weird..."
Sheng Xia replied: "Shen Ao is missing."
The lady boss was surprised: "Missing? How could that happen?"
Shengxia frowned and said, "There was no movement in his room. We were afraid he had frozen to death, so we opened the door and went in to check. But the door was not locked and he was gone."
The proprietress thought for a moment and said softly, "Don't worry, could he have run to another room?"
Fang Yaoyao: "Aren't the doors of the other rooms locked?"
The lady boss said a little embarrassedly: "All our doors are made of wood. They can be opened with a strong kick."
Then he hurriedly said, "But don't kick it! If the door is broken, I will have to repair it. Come on, I'll take you room by room with the key."
Shengxia looked at the proprietress gratefully: "Thank you. Sorry for the trouble!"
The proprietress helped Annan close the door, and the three women left quickly.
Annan took out a camping light and illuminated the house. Then he said thoughtfully, "These two girls trust the boss lady quite a bit."
Generally speaking, if one's companion disappears in an inn, the first suspect would be the owner of the inn.
Not only did they not secretly guard against it themselves, they even came to the proprietress.
Gu Zhiyu frowned and said, "It should be because she has an inexplicable affinity."
Annan raised his eyebrows: "You found it too?"
Gu Zhiyu nodded. He usually hated women who were coy and pretentious, but he had no aversion to this coquettish boss lady. This was very abnormal.
Annan pondered for a moment and said, "Let's be careful and don't fall into her trap."
Gu Zhiyu hummed and reminded Gouzi: "Fugui, be careful."
Annan burst out laughing.
The image that the rich judge people by their appearance has become deeply rooted in people's minds.
When the dog saw them making fun of him, he immediately became unhappy and tilted his head and cursed:
"Ouch? Ouch! Ouch!"
What kind of beauty is she? Whose beauty has eyes on her butt? I am not a fool. She called me a pig. How can I be good to her?
Annan couldn't help laughing at its angry look: "Okay, stop scolding, the spring water is already too strong, we can't understand it."
Gu Zhiyu pursed his lips and said, "I did understand half of what you said."
By the way, I commented: "His swearing skills are still as good as ever."
Annan covered his mouth and smiled, then reminded Lai Fu and Mr. Rabbit: "You too, be careful and don't run around."
Lai Fu flapped his wings to let his master know that he could rest assured. Mr. Rabbit, on the other hand, flexed his muscles as usual, with an attitude that said, "Keep away from strangers."
Annan twitched her lips. The little white rabbit she raised was probably the least gentle one in the world. Every day, it looked like it was ready to fuck someone to death at any time.
At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door.
It was the male boss' voice: "Two bosses, the water is here!"
Annan glanced at the door. She would definitely not drink the water given by an outsider. She was about to ask him to leave, but after thinking about it, she opened the door and took the water.
"Thank you."
The other party handed over a tray with a hot water kettle and two cups on it.
The boss smiled and said, "You're welcome! The weather is cold, so I boiled some water for you. Drink it later to warm your body so you can have a good sleep."
Annan put the tray on the table, went back to close the door, and said:
"We don't need anything anymore. Please don't knock on the door to disturb us if you have nothing to do."
After a pause, he added: "Don't come over even if you have something to do."
The boss was stunned for a moment, then showed a lewd smile: "Oh! I understand, I understand everything!"
As he said that, he took a look inside and winked at Gu Zhiyu: "Don't worry, brother! I won't disturb you!"
Gu Zhiyu felt a little nauseous when he saw his expression that said, "We are all men, I know you want to enjoy yourself."
Annan rolled his eyes at his boss:
"You know nothing! Don't come near our room during the day or at night! If you need to stay longer, I will come to you."
The boss was a little surprised: "During the day...? Oh, I understand, I understand!"
Annan: ...
She meant that he should stay away from their room at any time of day or night.
But why does this evil man seem to be getting more and more devious? ?
Gu Zhiyu looked at the boss and said coldly, "Get out."
The boss looked unhappy when he heard him drive him away so bluntly. Before he could say anything else, Annan at the door slammed it shut.
The male boss looked at the door that slammed in his face, clenched his fist, then sneered and slowly returned to his room.
Annan turned around and saw the three little ones standing in front of the table, surrounding the pot of water.
She immediately frowned and said, "What did I teach you before? You can't eat or drink things given by strangers!"
"Go away, don't hang around here. I'll get you some water to drink."
