Gu Yundong was speechless. The prefecture magistrate was neither good nor evil. She really could not understand what he was thinking.

However, she was not in Yongning Prefecture now. It was hard to say if they would have any contact in the future. He did not care about it for now.

The carriage quickly arrived at Fulong Inn. As soon as they got off, they saw the waiter who had testified in the court walk out angrily with a bag.

The innkeeper was also furious. “Our inn can’t afford you. The guests came to stay at our inn, so you should serve and take care of them. You shouldn’t keep an eye on what they did and said. In the end, you even made wild guesses and told others. Do you think anyone will stay at our inn like this? Leave. Leave quickly.”

The waiter was a little unconvinced. “I went to the court to testify. How can I lie if the prefecture magistrate asked me a question? Do you dare not to say anything in front of the prefecture magistrate?”

The shopkeeper sneered. “Of course you should tell the truth in court, but before you went to court, you had already sold this matter to Doctor Yu. You still have the cheek to ask me? Are you leaving or not? If you don’t, I’ll get someone to beat you out.”

The shopkeeper grew impatient and turned to call for the others.

The waiter quickly grabbed his bag and ran away.

When he came out and saw Gu Yundong standing there, he immediately glared at her and snorted.

Shao Qingyuan narrowed his eyes and suddenly glanced behind him.

On the other side, the beggars who had been talking confidently in the court smiled silently at him.

Gu Yundong asked the shopkeeper to get another room. The shopkeeper looked apologetic. “I’m really sorry. Our inn didn’t manage well. Miss, you want another room, right? I won’t charge you for this room. Treat it as an apology, okay?”

Gu Yundong felt that the shopkeeper was a good person. She had originally wanted to grab her stuff and look for another inn. Now that the waiter had been chased away, there was no need.

Shao Qingyuan’s room was next to hers. Gu Yundong knew that he was busy and had definitely not eaten breakfast.

She had wanted to eat something in the hall, but after what had happened in the morning, many people were whispering to her. Gu Yundong asked the waiter to bring some food up.

Shao Qingyuan was indeed hungry. Now that Gu Yundong was sitting opposite him, his appetite improved.

Unfortunately, the food was not as delicious as hers.

After barely finishing two big bowls of rice, Shao Qingyuan narrowed his eyes slightly.

Gu Yundong saw that he seemed to have lost a lot of weight. His dark circles were also a little heavy. She did not know how long it had been since he had slept properly.

Although he was riding a horse at full speed, the Xuanhe Prefecture was even further away. He had only set off after receiving the letter and had even arrived here at the same time as her. It was likely that he often traveled overnight.

Gu Yundong chased him to bed. It would not be too late to talk after he had slept well.

Shao Qingyuan got the waiter to bring hot water and took a comfortable shower.

However, he could not fall asleep no matter what.

After tossing and turning for more than an hour, he finally sat up, changed into clean clothes, and tidied herself up. Only then did she go out and hesitantly knock on Gu Yundong’s door.

Gu Yundong looked at him in surprise. “You’re not asleep?”

“I can’t sleep.”

You can’t sleep with such dark circles under your eyes? I’ve never heard of you having insomnia before.

Shao Qingyuan looked uncomfortable. After a while, he said, “I have something to ask you.”

“What?”

“I heard that you have a fiance here, right?”

“Huh??” Gu Yundong’s mind was filled with question marks.. Fiance? Why didn’t she know?
