Xiao Yubai was very fast. He not only killed all the bandits, but also cut off the hands and feet of the bandit leader. Finally, when the bandit begged for mercy, he gouged out his eyes.
"Wash your hands before you go back to your room, and change your clothes too." What a waste of her time. She should have just stayed home for dinner. Not only did she not get to eat, but she also ended up feeling very angry.
"Understood, Madam." After watching Madam leave, Xiao Yubai called out the guards. "Clean up these corpses. I'll go to your room to wash up. The waiter will bring water to your room."
The waiter was so frightened that he lay on the ground. Only after hearing his order did he stand up. "Yes, sir!"
The innkeeper came over and said, "Thank you, sir, for killing these bandits. Otherwise, countless people passing by would have suffered." He ran an inn here and had seen this customer several times.
However, back then he was decisive and efficient, unlike now when he has a wife with him. If you didn't see him killing bandits, it would be hard to imagine that he was alone.
"No need for thanks, I only kill those who deserve to die." After saying that, Xiao Yubai went upstairs, washed up, changed his clothes, and then returned to his room. "Madam, I'm coming in."
He went in and saw An Shuyi sitting there eating. There was a set of chopsticks and a bowl on the table. "Madam is still thinking of me. Thank you, Madam."
He picked up his chopsticks, took a bite and put it in her bowl before starting to eat himself. Hmm, this tastes somewhat familiar; these dishes taste like the ones from the palace.
"Madam, these dishes were all taken from the palace! I'm very curious, how did you put them away and then take them out again? Could you demonstrate for me?"
An Shuyi looked up at him and said, "You have food to eat, yet you talk so much. Do you think I'm idle?" Then she continued eating.
"No, Madam, please don't be angry. It's all my fault. Eat your food." He picked up a piece of food with his chopsticks, but it was blocked.
"Drooling." At least the first time I picked up food with chopsticks, they were clean. Now that the chopsticks have already been used, why would I still pick up food for her? What was I thinking?
Xiao Yubai smiled, looking like a scoundrel, "I've eaten a lot of Madam's leftovers, and I didn't mind Madam's saliva at all. On the contrary, I quite liked it."
Seeing his shameless behavior, An Shuyi didn't want to say anything and continued eating her meal. However, she only ate a few bites before putting it down, as it was so late and she wouldn't feel comfortable eating too much.
"Pour me a glass of water."
"Okay!" Xiao Yubai stood up, poured a glass of water for her, and then sat down to continue eating, finishing the food on the table at an astonishing speed.
After he finished eating, An Shuyi put away the bowls and chopsticks, and told him to wash them when she had time. Anyway, he always ate the most. She walked to the window and sat down to digest.
"Madam, since you have nothing to do now, could you tell me about your world?" He was genuinely curious about what kind of world it was; it must be incredibly magical.
Seeing his curiosity, An Shuyi said, "There's not much to say. Every world has its advantages. Our world is much more developed than this one. You only need a cell phone to send messages. As long as the connection is established, you can talk."
"And those who travel don't use horses, they use airplanes, trains, and cars, which are very fast. It would take you several days to get there on horseback, but we can get there in just a few hours."
Xiao Yubai looked at her in surprise. Although he didn't want to believe it, he felt it was true. "Madam, why did you come here? Were you this beautiful in that world too?"
"We went out for a trip and encountered a mudslide, which transported us here. This body looks just like mine in that other world." As for beauty, that's a must; no woman dislikes hearing compliments.
"Then why are you so sure you can go back?"
An Shuyi turned her head and said, "You are smart, but I am not stupid. How can I be sure that I will go back? Of course, I have confirmed it. Don't ask me anything. I will say what I should say, and I will not say what I shouldn't say."
During their time together, she felt that Xiao Yubai was not bad, but he did not meet the standards for bringing him back to their world. The worst thing is to be excited for a short time. She did not want to bring him back and then abandon him because she did not like him.
If two people love each other, it's for life, not a second marriage. They can't just be looking for something new and then break up or divorce when the novelty wears off. That would be bad for everyone.
"I won't inquire, but isn't Madam afraid she'll fall for me and then be reluctant to leave?" Although he had never liked anyone before, he was confident he could make Madam like him.
An Shuyi smiled sweetly, "If you really have the ability to make me fall in love with you, then it's okay if I don't leave this world." Of course, if she really falls in love with him, she will take him back.
Xiao Yubai also smiled and said, "Don't worry, Madam, I will definitely make you like me." But how can he make a woman like him? It seems he needs to ask someone.
"Hopefully, I'll have the guy bring the water up so I can wash up and go to bed." I slept for a while during the day, but I didn't get enough sleep. I have to go to bed early tonight because I have to get up early tomorrow. It's so annoying.
"Please wait here, Madam." After saying this, he left the room, asked the waiter to bring hot water, and after he had washed up, he closed the door and continued to sleep at the table.
"Book your own room tomorrow. What's the point of sleeping in my room all day?" Even though it doesn't affect her sleep, isn't it uncomfortable to sleep on the table?
"I'm used to sleeping next to Madam, I can't sleep in a different room." He sounded like a rogue.
He didn't want to change rooms. Although the table wasn't a good place to sleep, he was happy as long as he was with his wife.
"Whatever." She was too lazy to say anything more. She went behind the screen to change into her pajamas before coming out. She couldn't sleep in her traditional Chinese dress.
Xiao Yubai closed his eyes when she went to the screen, and only opened them when she came out. But he couldn't look closely, and the room lights were off, so he could only close his eyes and go to sleep.
The next day, before dawn, everyone in the inn was already up and setting off on their journey. An Shuyi was also woken up, cleared the things off the table, changed into a ruqun (a type of traditional Chinese dress), and went downstairs.
When she arrived outside the inn, the guards had already driven the carriage to the door and were waiting. After being helped into the carriage, she sat down and leaned back to continue sleeping. Even if she couldn't fall asleep, she had to close her eyes because she was sleepy.
Xiao Yubai entered the carriage and saw her leaning against the side of the carriage. He walked over and sat down next to her. When she suddenly opened her eyes, he whispered, "I was afraid you wouldn't sleep well, so I wanted you to lean on me."
"Thank you." After saying that, An Shuyi leaned against him without any hesitation, closed her eyes and quickly fell asleep. She was woken up again by someone calling her.
"Madam, it's noon, time to get up and have lunch."
