Feng Qingge certainly didn't know these things, and his explanation put her at ease. "I see." Having dealings with the imperial court meant he was no ordinary person.
"You came here just to find him?" Mo Linyuan sipped his tea, his dark eyes still fixed on her, unmoving. It was as if he would keep watching until she gave a reason.
Feng Qingge nodded. Since he knew Lin's identity, it wouldn't hurt to tell him. "Well, a few days ago he sent someone to the capital to look for me, saying that his mansion was haunted and he wanted me to go and catch the ghost, and the reward was very high." She was clearly excited when she said the last sentence.
Mo Linyuan shook his head, his face showing obvious helplessness. He had underestimated her love of money. "If you want to go, I know where his residence is."
"No need. I already informed him before I came. I'm sure someone will come looking for me in a few days. It's better to be invited than to come to someone else's door." Hmph, what if people think she's a liar if she goes there on her own?
Seemingly speechless at her idea, Mo Linyuan kept shaking his head. Since she said she wasn't going, he didn't ask her again, since someone would be coming soon anyway.
And so, the group spent another two days at the inn. During those two days, Mo Linyuan went out early and returned late every day, and no one knew what he was doing. Moreover, Hei Ming followed him everywhere.
She couldn't get up early, so he would always come back before dinner and have dinner with her.
Sometimes the two would play chess, and sometimes they would go back to their rooms separately.
On the afternoon of the third day, two people finally arrived at the inn: a modestly dressed gentleman and a servant in gray.
As soon as the two entered, the shopkeeper hurriedly came forward to greet them, "Master Lin." His respectful manner suggested that the Master Lin he was referring to was the person Feng Qingge had asked about yesterday.
"Well, shopkeeper, let me ask you, did a young master come to this shop a few days ago?" The man in front, Mr. Lin, asked anxiously.
"Yes, not one, but two." The shopkeeper, puzzled, held up two fingers to indicate.
At this moment, whether it was one or two Master Lins, he had received news that the expert he had invited was here, so he rushed over.
He nodded, still looking anxious, "Okay, okay, then take me there quickly, I have urgent business with them."
Although the shopkeeper was confused, he couldn't resist Lin Yong's enthusiasm and had no choice but to lead him upstairs.
Today, neither Feng Qingge nor Mo Linyuan went out, because she had said yesterday that they would wait for someone to come to their door.
Sure enough, they arrived. After the innkeeper led Lin Yong and the gray-clad servant upstairs, they found their room and discovered that they were in room number one, which was Feng Qingge's room.
"Ta-da!"
"Are the two young masters here?"
The two people inside were playing chess when a knock and voices came from outside the door, causing them to stop playing.
Meanwhile, Qi Quan, who was intently watching the two play chess, hadn't reacted yet when Hei Ming, who was standing there blankly, went to open the door.
"Creak." The wooden door opened in response, and the people outside the door were stunned for a moment when they saw who had suddenly opened the door. In particular, Hei Ming's indifferent expression made the shopkeeper even more hesitant.
"Excuse me, is Young Master Feng here?" Lin Yong raised his hands, shook his sleeves, and leaned forward to ask.
"What can I do for you?" Hei Ming neither said he was there nor that he wasn't, but his meaning was quite clear.
