Gu Linchao was stunned, then frowned. "Of course not, don't overthink it."
"It's not like that?" Wen Nongnong blinked, looking at him with innocent eyes.
Gu Linchao paused, then denied it, "No."
Wen Nongnong shrugged and then asked, "Is it alright for Your Highness to bathe alone?"
Gu Linchao nodded, "Mm."
"Then Your Highness should stay in the room and take a good bath. Remember not to get the wound wet. I'll go out and buy two sets of clean clothes." After giving her instructions, Wen Nongnong walked out.
Gu Linchao wanted to call her back because he was a little worried about her traveling alone, but if she didn't go out, he would have to take a bath later...
While he was struggling with his decision, Wen Nongnong had already opened the door and left.
He had no choice but to give up, comforting himself that Wen Nongnong was no ordinary woman; she possessed some martial arts skills, and ordinary villains could not get close to her.
As soon as Wen Nongnong went downstairs, she saw four men sitting in the lobby.
Upon seeing her come down, the four men stood up immediately, like mice seeing a cat. "Miss."
"Don't be nervous, please have a seat," Wen Nongnong said with a smile.
But the four men were somewhat horrified.
The woman had the same smiling, harmless look when she fed them the poison.
Wen Nongnong ignored them and quickly left the inn.
On her way here, she had already observed that there was a clothing store on the street just ahead.
She ran over quickly and bought two sets of clothes. One set was for Gu Linchao, including both underwear and outerwear, as well as shoes and socks. The other set was for herself.
The shop owner, seeing that she was a stranger, assumed she was from out of town and originally intended to overcharge her. However, Wen Nongnong ended up haggling down the price.
"One tael of silver. If you're willing, wrap it up for me; if not, forget it," Wen Nongnong said.
The shop owner said with a bitter face, "It can't be this low. The fabric and workmanship of these clothes you picked out are the best in the shop, and they cost more than one tael of silver..."
"Never mind then." Wen Nongnong made a move to leave.
It rained all day today, and there was no one on the streets. The shop owner had been swatting flies all day, and now that someone had finally come in and bought so much at once, he naturally didn't want to turn away the business.
Seeing this, he quickly said, "Oh, one tael of silver is one tael of silver. Don't go, miss. I'll wrap it up for you."
Wen Nongnong sighed, turned around, and said reluctantly, "Since the boss is so sincere about selling, then you can wrap it up. I didn't really want to buy it, after all, one tael of silver is enough for me to buy a lot of things."
Upon hearing this, the shopkeeper nearly vomited blood.
This girl is a perfect example of someone who gets a good deal but then complains.
Despite her young age, she was surprisingly ruthless when it came to bargaining.
She would absolutely not have been willing to sell at a low price if there were no customers today.
Even so, she still managed to quickly wrap up the clothes, shoes, and socks that Wen Nongnong had chosen.
Wen Nongnong readily paid the money, picked up her bundle, and returned to the inn.
In the inn, Gu Linchao had finished bathing. Seeing that Wen Nongnong had not returned, he became a little worried. Just as he was about to get up and put on his old clothes, there was a knock on the door.
"My husband, I'm back. Come in now."
Upon hearing this voice, Gu Linchao suddenly realized something, and his handsome face flushed.
He wasn't dressed yet; if she came in...
Even though there was a screen in the way, he still felt uncomfortable.
Wen Nongnong greeted him, but she wasn't waiting for his response; she was just reminding him.
After speaking, she pushed open the door and walked in.
Compared to Gu Linchao's discomfort, she was much more at ease.
