Chapter 54: Yang Jun, I'm tired

Although Yun Xiyue spoke boldly, in reality her eyes at this moment revealed shyness and unease.

She was clearly boosting her own morale and encouraging herself in her heart.

But she had to consider what to do when the situation arose.

Since they got the upper room, the waiter's attitude improved considerably.

After Yang Jun and Yun Xiyue entered the room, the waiter gave a few instructions and then left.

As soon as the door closed, Yun Xiyue let out a cheer and lunged onto the bed.

Great, after a night of hardship, we can finally rest.

However, as soon as the little princess lay on the bed, she immediately felt uncomfortable all over.

Yang Jun, I want to take a bath.

Yun Xiyue sat up and stared blankly at Yang Jun.

My little princess, this is an inn—what time is it now? You still want to bathe? Are you mistaken?

If you want to be a princess, stay in the Imperial Palace and behave yourself—why run out here to suffer?

Yang Jun was dissatisfied and glared at Yun Xiyue.

This woman really doesn't understand anything—at this crucial moment for watching the opposite side, she's still fussing about a bath.

【This princess is truly fearless—I don't know how she grew up so big.】

【Even those from the Imperial Palace are all abnormal—they insist on nitpicking; if not for fear of exposure and failing the mission, I'd really want to strip this woman and beat her.】

Yang Jun felt dissatisfied in his heart, and Yun Xiyue's pretty face blushed.

This Yang Jun, how can he be so simple and rough, completely lacking any gentlemanly demeanor, not knowing how to pity himself at all?

Yang Jun, do you really want to hit me?

Yun Xiyue's cheeks flushed, and as she spoke she lowered her head.

What?

It's fine, I'll go fetch water myself—but I've never done this kind of work, and it's pitch dark; what if I run into bad people…

Before Yang Jun could figure out what was wrong with Yun Xiyue, the woman immediately spoke up, and he let out a long sigh.

Alright, don't say more—I'll go fetch water.

Yang Jun felt gloomy—why can't this woman just behave?

Hehe, Yang Jun, I knew you treated me best.

Yun Xiyue had been waiting for those words, and as soon as Yang Jun spoke, she immediately smiled, her face full of satisfaction.

Listening to Yun Xiyue's words and looking at her demeanor, Yang Jun gently shook his head.

Encountering such a woman, I truly don't know what sin I have committed.

Yun Xiyue, on the other hand, wore a smile and was very satisfied.

To her, Yang Jun had always cared most about himself.

As long as that point is confirmed, nothing could be more appropriate.

Yang Jun had no time to talk more with Yun Xiyue, so he left the room, hoping to fetch the water quickly and settle these matters first.

Alas, even though we're beside the Imperial Palace, the best upper room is still this shabby.

Without incense is fine, but there isn't even a decent woman.

If I had known it would be like this, I'd have been better off not coming out.

Hearing that voice, Yang Jun blinked slightly.

This tone clearly belongs to a pampered, privileged second-generation scion.

I came here to open a room in order to complete the mission.

While they came here just to have fun, merely to enjoy themselves.

Comparing people to people really makes one want to die of anger.

While Yang Jun sighed, he continued forward.

Liu Chenggui heard the commotion, lifted his head, and sized him up.

What kind of person are you? Are you a merchant?

Liu Chenggui looked at Yang Jun; Yang Jun was first startled, but after feeling the stubble on his lips, he instinctively nodded.

Yes, I am a merchant.

Being a merchant is great—traveling south and north, you've seen everything.

Liu Chenggui gave a hehe laugh, said this, then stepped forward and leaned in toward Yang Jun.

Sir, do you know where there's a place to drink flower wine? Of course, it must be top quality, guaranteeing you benefits.

Liu Chenggui spoke with a smile, smiled at Yang Jun, blinked his eyes, and gave a knowing look.

Well, there really isn't any.

You can see for yourself—this is a weapon workshop, and everyone around here are common folk.

If you want to find a lady, go toward the Imperial Palace—the closer you get, the higher the cost, and naturally the quality improves.

Yang Jun smiled in response, his eyes sizing up this guy.

Moreover, this kid is completely unaffected, and his speech is very direct.

Just look at her demeanor—she's not pretending.

Liu Chenggui wore a disappointed look—near the Imperial Palace? He was certainly a regular there, originally wanting to change things up, but here there was nothing at all.

Forget it, running over there would be pointless.

But there's still half an hour left—this long night, how am I supposed to get through it?

Liu Chenggui said this, then shook his head again.

He had a mission on him; it seemed that indulging in pleasure was still impossible.

Yang Jun glanced at Liu Chenggui.

The way this kid spoke and acted still pleased him quite a bit.

"Brother, I have some good stuff here; take a look and see if you can use it."

Yang Jun chuckled, pulled out a yellowed thread-bound book from his bosom, and handed it to Liu Chenggui.

"Record Among a Hundred Flowers? Brother, you truly know my heart!"

"How much? Name your price!"

Liu Chenggui snatched the book in one go, and immediately began speaking again.

To him, this was a treasure, an supreme quality!

"When one walks the martial world, who wouldn't have some spare treasures?"

"Just take it and use it; consider it making a friend."

Yang Jun waved his hand, looking unconvinced.

These things were what he carried with him; originally he intended to use them to pass the time while keeping watch alone.

Who would have thought they'd actually come in handy now.

As a true beloved of the Imperial Uncle, who wouldn't have a few such rare items on the market?

However, Yun Xiyue came along, which deprived Yang Jun of the chance to enjoy them alone; thus, after happening upon Liu Chenggui, it was perfect to hand the book to him, also counting as disposing of stolen goods.

"Brother, you're thoughtful, but where did you obtain such treasures?"

Liu Chenggui's eyes lit up, and he immediately spoke again.

"Cough, these are private secret collections; just take them."

"As for their source, rest assured, they're clean."

Yang Jun didn't want to say more, and shoved the book into Liu Chenggui's bosom.

Liu Chenggui took the book, gave a hehe laugh, but thinking of his own status, how could he accept such favors for nothing?

Thus, he hurriedly felt out a piece of jade from his person.
