Since that was the case, Ling Ziqian quickly helped her into the restaurant and ordered several dishes.
Ning Xian'er was starving, so she didn't care about the simple restaurant and ate heartily.
Perhaps because she was so hungry, she found the food at the restaurant to be extremely delicious.
As she ate the delicious food, seeing the worry on Ling Ziqian's face, she was inexplicably surprised to find herself crying!
Ling Ziqian immediately panicked.
The more panicked he became, the harder Ning Xian'er cried. Blood gushed from her eyes.
It's been so long since I've felt this way, being worried and anxious for by someone!
After a while, once she had finished eating, Ning Xian'er's tears stopped.
Ling Ziqian breathed a sigh of relief; he hadn't finished eating yet.
Sitting to the side waiting for Ling Ziqian, Ning Xian'er was extremely sleepy. She put her backpack on the table, then lay down on it and drifted off to sleep.
Ling Ziqian could tell she was very tired. She was supposed to be a princess, and this afternoon she had been standing for the entire afternoon. It was no wonder she was exhausted.
After clearing the table of food, Ling Ziqian clutched the last bill and went to pay the bill.
I handed over a hundred dollars, and the shopkeeper gave me fifty dollars in change.
This price is quite cheap, but Ling Ziqian was speechless. He only had fifty yuan left. What could he do with it?
He patted Ning Xian'er on the shoulder and woke her up.
Ling Ziqian held up the fifty yuan and asked, "Do you have any way to make money that can turn fifty yuan into five hundred yuan?"
Ning Xian'er felt utterly exasperated. She muttered that she was so tired and wanted to sleep, and that she could worry about making money tomorrow.
Seeing Ning Xian'er like this, Ling Ziqian was speechless. He was also very tired, so he decided to talk about it after tonight.
He pulled Ning Xian'er up from her chair, and the two left the restaurant.
Walking on the unfamiliar streets of Machu, surrounded by complete darkness.
A gust of cold wind blew by, and Ning Xian'er shivered. She hugged her backpack to her chest and unconsciously closed the distance between herself and Ling Ziqian.
Ling Ziqian looked at Ning Xian'er and couldn't help but ask, "Hey, do you really not have a single penny on you?"
Ning Xian'er nodded seriously.
Ling Ziqian was immediately filled with helplessness.
Ling Ziqian didn't know where to go either, so he took Ning Xian'er and wandered around.
Ling Ziqian stopped when he saw a lightbox on the street that read "Hotel Accommodation".
He looked at Ning Xian'er somewhat awkwardly, "I only have fifty yuan on me. You choose whether to use the fifty yuan to stay in a hotel for one night, or to sleep on the street and use the fifty yuan to invest tomorrow?"
"A hotel!" Ning Xian'er made her choice without hesitation.
"Well..." Ling Ziqian scratched his head in frustration, "If we don't get a single penny after tonight, should we choose to withdraw from the event?"
Ning Xian'er's expression turned serious, and she said firmly, "I will not withdraw from this event. I will stick with it until the last day. Even if I don't get any money, I will be able to earn some tomorrow!"
Ling Ziqian looked at Ning Xian'er with a mixture of surprise and delight, "How do you make money if you don't have any?"
Ning Xian'er was a little embarrassed. She lowered her head and muttered, "We'll talk about this tomorrow. Also, I can't earn money without your help."
why would you say so?
Ling Ziqian was very curious, but Ning Xian'er did not continue the topic and walked towards the hotel first.
Fifty dollars can only get you the worst room.
But the two had no choice. After a quick registration of their ID cards, they were led to a room in the corner of the hotel.
The room was alright; there was only one bed and no TV, but at least there was a bathroom.
Ling Ziqian breathed a sigh of relief as he closed the door. At that moment, Ning Xian'er looked at him.
The two stared at each other, wondering how they would spend the night in such a shabby room, alone together.
Chapter 283 An incredibly difficult and arduous day!
The room was small, and the blankets and sheets on the bed looked a bit dirty.
But no matter what, it's better than sleeping on the streets.
Ning Xian'er knew she had no right to complain or grumble.
However, sharing a room with Ling Ziqian, a boy who was practically a stranger, was pushing Ning Xian'er's limits.
She wanted to ask Ling Ziqian to leave, but she was only able to stay in this room because Ling Ziqian had paid for it, and she was already thankful that he hadn't asked her to leave.
Remembering how Ling Ziqian, feeling guilty, hadn't taken a single penny from the begging mother and daughter that evening, Ning Xian'er took a deep breath and chose to believe in Ling Ziqian's character!
"I'll go see if there's any hot water. If there is, I'll take a shower first," Ning Xian'er muttered as she entered the small bathroom.
A moment later, she came out of the bathroom and carried her backpack directly into the bathroom.
She closed the door. She could hear the soft patter of water coming from inside; she was taking a shower.
Ling Ziqian sat on the hard bed and sighed rather dejectedly.
"Is this karma for lying?" Ling Ziqian thought to himself.
"What kind of retribution is this?" Huan Yue complained. "Going to a hotel with a girl, is that retribution?"
Too lazy to talk to this guy, Ling Ziqian lay down on the bed, closed his eyes, and wanted to sleep.
Just as Ling Ziqian was drifting off to sleep, a scream came from the bathroom.
Ling Ziqian was startled awake. He sat up abruptly and asked anxiously, "What's wrong?"
"The hot water in the showerhead suddenly turned into cold water, it's so cold..." Ning Xian'er's voice trembled.
"No way?" Ling Ziqian was startled. It was the dead of winter, and the hot water turned into cold water while he was taking a shower. This was going to be the death of him!
Ling Ziqian quickly stood up. "I'll go find the boss and ask him what happened!"
With that, Ling Ziqian quickly left the room and went to the hotel counter to inquire.
The owner's answer was simple: the hotel's electric water heater was shared by two rooms.
It's likely that the guests in the next room were also taking a shower, causing the hot water to be used up too quickly, and then the hot water suddenly turned into cold water.
The shopkeeper explained. A young man with wet hair, grumbling, also came over to ask what was wrong; he too had been washing his clothes when the hot water turned cold.
The shop owner waved his hand, indicating that hot water would be available soon.
The young man continued cursing, and Ling Ziqian turned and went back to his room.
You can't expect too much from a room that costs fifty yuan a night.
Pushing open the door, Ling Ziqian saw Ning Xian'er walking out of the bathroom.
She had her hair up, revealing her fair neck, and was dressed neatly as she sat on the edge of the bed reading a book.
He asked her a question, and she said she was fine. Ling Ziqian sat on the other side of the bed, unsure of what to say.
The two had only met at noon, and now they were going to have to sleep in the same room, which was extremely awkward.
Seeing that Ling Ziqian was bored, Ning Xian'er opened her backpack, took out a book, and handed it to Ling Ziqian.
That's a literary classic. Ling Ziqian has read it before, and now he might as well read it again.
After reading half of the book, Ling Ziqian kept yawning.
He went into the bathroom, turned on the shower, and found that there was hot water, so he decided to take a shower.
After taking a comfortable shower, Ling Ziqian walked out of the bathroom and saw Ning Xian'er looking at him awkwardly.
Ling Ziqian scratched his head sheepishly, "Well, I'll sleep on the floor, you can sleep on the bed."
Ning Xian'er handed the blanket to Ling Ziqian, while she took out the clothes from her backpack to use as a blanket.
After a while, Ning Xian'er put on her clothes, and Ling Ziqian rolled up in the quilt and lay down on the floor next to the bed.
Ling Ziqian mumbled "Goodnight," and Ning Xian'er reached out and turned off the light.
Suddenly, the room fell into darkness and silence.
However, after only a few seconds of silence, sounds of moaning and groaning came from the next room.
This is truly speechless!
Ling Ziqian was embarrassed; he had wanted to talk to Ning Xian'er.
But to her surprise, Ning Xian'er fell asleep as she listened to her even breathing.
She looks exhausted this afternoon.
Sleeping on the floor wrapped in a blanket was extremely uncomfortable, not to mention the constant noises coming from next door, which gave Ling Ziqian a terrible headache.
Ling Ziqian didn't know how much time had passed before he finally drifted off to sleep.
When Ling Ziqian woke up, he got up from the ground with aches all over his body.
Ning Xian'er was still curled up on the bed, not yet awake.
Ling Ziqian got up and went to wash up.
Hearing the sound of running water, Ning Xian'er finally woke up. She was still a little dazed and didn't seem to be fully awake.
But when she finished washing up and left the hotel, she was still confused.
Ling Ziqian was a little worried about her, "Are you not feeling well?"
Ning Xian'er nodded awkwardly, "I feel a little dizzy."
"Did you catch a cold because you took a cold shower last night?"
"It's okay, don't worry."
Ning Xian'er stubbornly walked forward.
Ling Ziqian glanced at his silver watch, wanting to use his "ambiguity points" to help her.
However, the silver watch only has 1 point of ambiguity value, which should be the ambiguity value collected when Ning Xian'er fell down yesterday and he helped her up.
This guy is sick!
