Xi Xi could hardly believe her ears. Was the tunnel survival challenge over already?
Chu Zhiqin was also stunned, and stood up curiously and somewhat bewilderedly, looking around.
You see, she left in such a hurry last time that she didn't even have time to enter the Dongli Post Station. It was only a few days ago, while having dinner, that Chu Zhiqin learned that there was such a place in the transit station, from the various descriptions given by Xi Xi and Shaliman.
She began to look around at her surroundings, observing them with great appreciation.
The ceiling is high and decorated with exquisite plaster moldings, with a vintage chandelier hanging in the center, emitting a soft and warm glow.
However, when Chu Zhiqin turned around, her face suddenly froze, and a blush crept up to her ears at a visible speed.
"Long time no see." Xi Xi's lips curled up slightly, revealing a smile that seemed friendly but actually carried a hint of provocation.
Stop pretending! Go ahead and pretend, I'm even more of a pretender.
Xi Xi hasn't forgotten the incredibly low score She Ji gave her mother during the competition for the best silk.
She tolerated it out of respect for Grandma You.
She pretended not to notice Sheji's unfriendly expression, and casually and naturally raised her hand to gently pat Sheji's shoulder. Then, in a tone as if the two were very familiar with each other, she said, "Please give my regards to Old You!"
A hint of impatience flashed clearly in She Ji's eyes.
Damn it. If there were a system for NPC feedback, she would definitely give this Sheji a terrible review. What kind of service is this? Giving everyone a hard time?
"Welcome to Dongli Post Station!" Just then, She Ji seemed to have triggered a standard dialogue sequence. His previously tense face forced a smile that was more like a grimace, and he spoke in a forced, insincere tone:
"However... the women's restroom isn't here. Please move to the one next door." After saying that, he gestured to the side.
Xi Xi was speechless at She Ji's words. Her mother blushed and tugged at Xi Xi's arm. Only then did Xi Xi turn around and see a row of standing toilets at the corner of the room...
Holy crap, this is the men's restroom?!
Xi Xi finally understood why there were two drainage well covers on either side of the irrigation ditch...
Although somewhat embarrassed, Xi Xi, who had weathered many storms and been through countless battles, had a skin thicker than a corner of a city wall.
She coughed lightly twice to ease her embarrassment, then smiled and said to She Ji, "Oh, of course I know your Aunt Xi, but there's no one here, right? It's alright, we'll just take a look and leave right away."
Okay, that's enough...
Standing to the side, Chu Zhiqin couldn't bear to see her daughter being so shameless, so she quickly reached out and gently tugged at Xi Xi's clothes.
At this moment, She Ji subtly tugged at the corners of his mouth, and it took a lot of effort for him to force out a reasonably kind smile.
He took a deep breath and patiently explained to Xi Xi, "There is indeed no one here now, but the multiple services will be merged soon, and there might be people there then. So please take the liberty of moving to the women's restroom next door."
Upon hearing this, Xi Xi and Chu Zhiqin exchanged a glance, both revealing a hint of surprise in their eyes.
"Which servers are being merged? When will the merger begin?" Xi Xi glanced at She Ji, who didn't seem to be joking, and pressed for an answer.
She Ji, still all smiles, said lightly, "I can't tell you. This is special information that only our customers are entitled to know. I've already made an exception. If there's nothing else, please leave the inn as soon as you've taken care of your business and don't linger here."
After saying that, She Ji didn't give Xi Xi and Chu Zhiqin any chance to respond. He simply reached out and pushed them towards the door.
"Wait!" Just then, Chu Zhiqin, who had been being pushed forward, suddenly stopped and forcefully broke free from She Ji's hand.
She quickly pulled a purple receipt from the bronze pouch at her waist, held it high above her head, and shouted, "Who says we're alright? We need a hotel!"
In the lobby of the inn, a huge holographic projection screen was vividly changing shapes and scenes, and She Ji's expression suddenly became interesting.
What Chu Zhiqin was clutching tightly in her hand was actually an extremely precious and rare !
