Chapter 403 Special Guest

When Ming Xi went downstairs, he saw a young man sitting in the hall, with his back facing Ming Xi's direction, drinking wine slowly, with a sword on the table, he looked like a knight-errant walking the rivers and lakes.

The surrounding guards kept an eye on the man's direction from time to time, and the atmosphere was a little tense.

However, the man didn't care about the surrounding atmosphere, and drank his own wine.

When the jar of wine was empty, he frowned in dissatisfaction, and raised his voice, "Miss Boss! Mistress of Boss!"

The voice is clear and clear, between a teenager and a young man.

He turned sideways, revealing half of his face, Ming Xi was greatly disappointed.

This person's face doesn't match his figure and temperament at all, it seems...too mediocre, the kind you can't find on the street.

"Here we come!" The landlady's voice came from far away, she lifted the curtain and came out from behind, holding two jars of wine in her hands, with a hearty smile on her face.

"My guest, here is your wine!"

The young man pursed his lips and complained, "Not to mention the slow movement, your wine doesn't smell like alcohol at all, it's boring! It's really boring!"

With a "bang", two heavy wine jars were placed on the table. The proprietress took a breath, supported the table with her hands, and smiled, "Guest officer, please forgive me. We are an inn here, not a restaurant. Don't drink wine in restaurants outside, just let it go!"

The young man raised his hand impatiently, "All right, all right, let's go down."

The proprietress breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that this guest was going to be very difficult.

She turned her head and saw Ming Xi and Yue Li Su standing there, with a smile on her face again, "Oh, the two nobles came down so soon?"

She said with an apologetic look on her face, "But it may take a while, this dish isn't ready yet, I'll remind you again."

Ming Xi shook her head and said she didn't mind, "There's no rush, we'll just sit here and wait."

"That's fine! I'll ask Xiao Er to serve you tea!" She grinned and showed her white teeth.

Ming Xi unconsciously glanced at the red birthmark on her forehead again, if an ordinary woman had such a birthmark on her face, she must find a way to cover it up, so as not to show it to others.

However, she was open and generous, without any cover-up, and she seemed to not care about others' scrutiny at all.

However, as a woman, Mingxi is naturally more sensitive in certain aspects. She feels that it's not that the proprietress doesn't care, on the contrary, she cares about her appearance very much.

She glanced at the young man sitting by the window again, and felt that this man's aura was also incompatible with this inn.

The shortcut they took was that the road was very remote, and there were not many pedestrians on the road at all.

How did this man come here? Is it a coincidence that he appeared in this inn, or is it artificial?
Xiao Er didn't know whether he was busy or just hiding and being lazy, the proprietress cursed and cursed, and had to go into battle in person.

She is pouring tea, the tea is not good, even a little rough.

Yue Li Su only glanced at it and then looked away.

Since he entered this shop, he has spoken very little.

Ming Xi stared at the swirling tea powder in the teacup, and asked casually, "Miss Boss, was that young master over there before we came, or did he come after we came?"

Unexpectedly, the proprietress said without hesitation, "He, he came yesterday!" After a pause, she looked at Ming Xi with a half-smile, "Little Madam, if you ask about this, aren't you afraid that your husband will be jealous?"

She pointedly glanced at Yue Li Su, Ming Xi followed her gaze to look over, the other party lowered his eyes, the veins on his forehead twitched forbearance, his brows and eyes were a little restless.

Her heart skipped a beat.

Naturally, Yue Li Su couldn't be jealous because of this, he also knew that the young man was weird, so his mood at this moment was not right...

Thinking of a possibility, she bit her lip. Could it be an illness?

This is not a good place, let alone a good time.

Ming Xi suppressed the panic in her heart, without even thinking about it, she touched Yue Li Su's hand on her knee with her fingertips, and in the sight of the other party, she bent her eyes and said, "My husband is not so stingy."

There was a warm touch on the back of the hand, as if a steady stream of power was poured in.

Yue Li Su pursed his lips tightly, suppressing the turbulent emotions in his heart, he calmed down, his tone was light, and his dark eyes were deep, "That's not necessarily true."

Ming Xi who was slapped in the face in seconds: ...

Seeing this, the proprietress burst out laughing.

Mingxi avoided this topic in embarrassment, and glanced at the direction of the young man. The other party seemed to be completely absorbed in the matter of drinking, and didn't care about everything around him. She and Yue Lisu appeared here. For so long, the other party didn't even give him a look.

She lowered her voice, looking curious and timid, "I just think this person looks a little weird."

Saying that, the landlady's expression was not as cheerful as before, but rather distressed, she obviously agreed with Ming Xi's words, "Isn't it weird!"

As if she had finally found someone to talk to, she looked in a certain direction, lowered her voice and approached, "Since I came in last night, I have been clamoring for a drink, neither eating nor doing anything else. I hate that my wine is tasteless! He should not drink it if it is tasteless!"

She curled her lips down, with a feeling of gnashing her teeth, "I think this person is here to find fault on purpose!"

Mingxi was a little surprised by the information revealed by the proprietress's words. She thought that the young man and the proprietress were in the same group, but now it seemed that it was not like that.

The proprietress seems to be really tormented by the other party. If she doesn't open the door to do business and pay attention to her reputation, she can't wait to pick up a broom and drive people out!
Ming Xi suppressed the thoughts in her heart, and opened her beautiful eyes, "Then, are there other people living in this inn? I just saw that many rooms are empty."

The proprietress thought for a while, "That man lives in the fourth room from the left on the second floor. In addition, there is a couple living in the seventh room on the right. They don't come out very often during the day."

"Oh, by the way, there is an old man living in the innermost room on the right hand side. He is crazy. If you meet him, you'd better stay away from him. The old man will become crazy!"

Ming Xi wrote them down one by one, and thanked with a smile, "Thank you for the reminder, Madam Boss."

"Why are you being polite!" The proprietress couldn't help but pinched her cheek lightly, and then her back felt cold. She noticed the cold gaze from the side, her face froze, and then she looked calm and decisively slipped away, "The food should be It's almost ready, I'll go check it out!"

Said, without thinking about it for a moment, rushed into the kitchen like a gust of wind.

Ming Xi touched his face, glanced at Yue Li Su, and was silent for a moment, "Can you stop acting like you want to eat people?"

With a gloomy face and a hostile tone, he said, "She touched you!"

Ming Xi: "...she is a woman."

He turned a deaf ear and stared straight at her reddish cheeks, as if he wanted to scrape off a layer of skin with his eyes.
