When Ye Ling heard this, his eyes flashed, and he was obviously moved.
Such a transaction is indeed better than eating other people's food for free.
But he said: "But we still took advantage of you."
Duan Qingxi looked at him and smiled, "It's not really taking advantage. We offended the eldest daughter of the Bai family before coming here, so we didn't want to stay at the inn. We were actually afraid of being discovered. If we stayed at your place, you would be implicated if we were discovered, so... this little bit of food is to make up for it."
Ye Ling was surprised, probably because he didn't expect that they would offend the eldest daughter of the Bai family, who was... the daughter of the head of the Xuanwu family!
However, he was also worried that Duan Qingxi was lying to him just to reassure him, so he looked at Yun Ting.
Yun Ting nodded while eating, "Yeah...that tigress is so stingy!"
Yun Ting didn't actually know what Bai Yiyi looked like, but he felt that this woman was chasing them for no apparent reason. Wasn't she a tigress?!
Seeing Yun Ting said this, Ye Ling no longer had any doubts.
He looked at Duan Qingxi seriously and said, "Don't worry, we will never tell anyone about this!"
In fact, the second young master of the Bai family often bullied them, and Ye Xiaomeng was almost beaten to death by them before, so it can be said that they also have a grudge against the Bai family.
And even if there was no grudge, Duan Qingxi and Yun Ting were so good to them, so they would naturally be willing to help.
Duan Qingxi had already sat down and said, "Then stop talking nonsense and eat quickly. After we finish eating, we will go back to get our luggage. Please help clean the room."
Despite being so rude, Ye Ling and the others not only did not feel angry, but felt at ease.
Several people sat down to eat together. Ye Qing and Ye Xiaomeng were still young and had suffered a lot, so they naturally could not resist these delicacies. They didn't care about anything else and ate happily.
After eating and drinking, Ye Qing and Ye Xiaomeng also rushed to pack up their things, and Duan Qingxi did not hesitate to be polite with them.
After going to the inn with Yunting to get things, I was about to return to the small courtyard where Ye Ling and the others lived, but I didn't expect to meet Bai Yiyi as soon as I went out.
Although she was still wearing a veil, Duan Qingxi recognized her at a glance and directly pulled Yun Ting away to hide.
Yun Ting didn't recognize Bai Yiyi at first, but Duan Qingxi's behavior naturally made him guess something.
He asked doubtfully, "Le'er, why should we hide from her? It's not like we can't beat her!"
Duan Qingxi frowned and said, "Don't mess around. This is Lingdu after all. We need to hide our identities. Making a scene on the streets wouldn't be a good thing. Besides... we're with Ye Ling and the others now. It doesn't matter if something happens to me, but I can't let others get into trouble."
When Yun Ting heard this, he thought it made sense, so he nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll try to stay away from her next time I see her."
But they didn't expect that Bai Yiyi was actually coming towards them!
Duan Qingxi thought to himself, "Oh no! It's too late to leave now."
He looked around and was about to find a suitable place to hide, but there was no place to hide, so he simply ran back to the second floor.
But there were also a lot of people on the second floor. They were all practitioners who came to Lingdu to take the entrance examinations of the four major colleges. They had just checked out and the two rooms were taken away, so it would not be appropriate to break in now.
