Mo Ting said, "I will sleep on the floor in the young master's room, and let Bian Lan and Doctor Cheng share a room."
Mo Chenyu and Bian Lan: No way.
Dr. Cheng: "I have no objection."
Mo Chenyu frowned: "Go ask the manager again and see if we can spare a room. Money is not a problem."
Although Mo Ting didn't quite understand, he still went to ask.
"Manager, do you think you can spare another room?" As he spoke, Mo Ting took out a silver ingot, about ten taels.
The innkeeper's eyes lit up when he saw the silver, but remembering that the other group of people were also not short of money, he could only reluctantly refuse, saying, "It's not that I'm not giving you face, but there are only so many rooms, first come, first served, there's nothing I can do about it."
What the shopkeeper didn't say was that the other group of people didn't look like they were easy to mess with. Although they weren't exactly domineering, they didn't seem like people who were easy to talk to.
He was just an innkeeper, trying to make a living, and he didn't want to put his own safety at risk.
Mo Ting offered more silver, which tempted the shopkeeper, but he didn't agree.
After learning about this, Mo Chenyu fell silent, so how exactly should the rooms be arranged?
Bian Lan hesitated for a moment, but quickly came to terms with it. If she was going to spend the night in the same room as the man, she would just sleep on the floor.
It's a bit awkward, but it's not impossible.
Bian Lan said, "Sir, two rooms it is! I'll share one with Doctor Cheng."
Mo Chenyu immediately said, "No, how about this, you share a room with me."
Mo Chenyu's words left the others, except for Bian Lan, somewhat confused. Bian Lan and Mo Chenyu were sharing a room?
Bian Lan was so shocked by these words that she almost couldn't breathe. Spending the night in the same room as Mo Chenyu?
Mo Ting exclaimed in surprise, "Young Master?"
Mo Chenyu realized that his words were a bit abrupt, but if he didn't say anything, he couldn't accept Bian Lan sharing a room with another man.
Mo Chenyu explained, "I have some ideas that I need Bian Lan's help with."
His explanation was half-hearted, but the reason seemed plausible enough.
In the end, Bian Lan and Mo Chenyu shared a room, while Mo Ting and Doctor Cheng shared a room.
After dinner, Mo Chenyu and Bian Lan were alone in a room. Bian Lan asked, "What do you need me to do, sir?"
Mo Chenyu shook his head: "I had some thoughts just now, but they're gone now. I'll wash up and get some rest."
Bian Lan felt something was off, but couldn't quite put her finger on it. She nodded blankly and said, "Okay."
Just then, the innkeeper knocked on the door and came in: "Gentlemen, the hot water is here."
The inn's facilities are decent; there's a small washroom in the room where you can take a shower.
It was hot, and they needed to take a bath while traveling.
After the waiter brought the hot water, he left. Bian Lan said, "Sir, would you like to take a bath first?"
Mo Chenyu's ears turned red upon hearing this: "You go first, I have some things to do when I go out to find Mo Ting."
Bian Lan breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this. Although the clean room was separated, it was separated by a screen, which was embroidered and could be seen through by the light.
After Mo Chenyu left, Bian Lan went to the clean room behind the screen to take a bath.
About 15 minutes later, Bian Lan came out dressed. She was drying her hair when Mo Chenyu, who was outside the door, heard footsteps inside and knocked on the door, saying, "Bian Lan, may I come in?"
Bian Lan: "I'm all better now."
Mo Chenyu pushed open the door and entered, and then saw Bian Lan drying her hair in her undergarments. Bian Lan's skin was as white as snow, and she had probably just taken a bath, as there was a slight blush on her cheeks. Her hair was not as perfectly styled as a woman's, but it did not detract from her beauty.
In the candlelight, there was an androgynous beauty, and Mo Chenyu thought that even if he didn't know Bian Lan's true gender beforehand, he would still be attracted to her.
Bian Lan asked, "Do you need my help?"
When Bian Lan said "help," she meant helping her take a bath.
After all, it's not very convenient for Mo Chenyu.
Mo Chenyu didn't quite understand: "What did you say?"
Bian Lan: "Sir, do you need any help taking a shower?"
Bian Lan only intended to help him up and had no other plans, but Mo Chenyu found her words rather strange. He knew she was a woman, and for the sake of her reputation, how could he ask her for help?
Mo Chenyu quickly said, "I'm used to Mo Ting, you can just call him over for me."
Bian Lan didn't think much of it; it was just a habit, nothing unusual.
In fact, Mo Chenyu had some hidden thoughts. He was somewhat insecure and did not want Bian Lan to see his broken leg.
Although he had recovered from the blow of his broken leg, Mo Chenyu's pride wouldn't allow his beloved to see his vulnerable side.
Bian Lan called Mo Ting in, and then she went out.
He came in about 15 minutes later. Mo Ting had already left, and Mo Chenyu was sitting on the bed drying his hair.
The room was quiet. Bian Lan suddenly didn't know what to say. Being alone in a room with a man was something she had never experienced even in modern times. How could she make him not nervous?
Mo Chenyu dried his hair, then looked at Bian Lan and said, "It's getting late, let's rest!"
There was only one bed in the entire room, and only one quilt on the bed. It was only then that Bian Lan realized what it meant for two people to share a room. She should have asked the waiter for another quilt; she had been so nervous that she forgot.
But wouldn't it seem a bit strange to ask for a blanket now?
After all, two grown men sleeping in the same bed and sharing a blanket does indeed have a hint of sharing a bed and pillows.
In addition, Bian Lan also had her own little schemes. Mo Chenyu was inconvenient with his legs, so naturally he wouldn't do anything to her. Of course, with Mo Chenyu's face, she wouldn't mind if he did something to her, since Mo Chenyu would be the one who suffered a loss.
