Chapter 342

But Qin Feng still had to go back and tell Sasha and Xiaomei, and make up for the accommodation fee for this period.

After all, the two sisters were also running a small business, and the inn's business didn't seem to be that good.

The other party taking him in at the time was already a favor; he couldn't just because Qin Feng had helped work during this period, consider all the accommodation fees and favors paid off.

At the very least, the accommodation fee could be paid off, but the favor, how could it be offset so easily?

When Qin Feng went to bid farewell to Shasha and Xiaomei, he did not do so in the presence of the other three.

After all, if it were in broad daylight, those two traitors would surely not commit murder openly.

Moreover, Qin Feng did not want them to know where he was staying.

He wanted to prevent Shasha and Xiaomei from having any contact with these people or getting involved as much as possible.

Therefore, Lilith and the other two were waiting for Qin Feng at the mission hall.

It had been agreed that after Qin Feng returned, the three of them would go to the trading hall on the second floor and the auction house on the third floor to look around.

After returning to the inn where Shasha and Xiaomei stayed, Qin Feng did not tell them why he was no longer staying there.

He simply took out two gold coins and handed them over.

He said it was for his accommodation during this period.

"It doesn't cost that much. You've already worked to pay off your debt; you don't need to give us any more money for lodging."

"Besides, a small shop like ours only charges 90 copper coins a night."

"You're giving us two gold coins all at once; that could cover over half a year of stay here."

Shasha and Xiaomei naturally refused the two gold coins Qin Feng offered.

Since they were able to take in Qin Feng, who was penniless at the time, without asking for payment, they were clearly very kind and upright people.

Furthermore, since Qin Feng had helped them clean during this time, saving them a lot of time they could use for reading, they could not possibly accept his money.

"Then let this be my deposit. I am only leaving for a short while; I might come back to stay later."

Qin Feng said with a smile, insisting on giving the gold coins to the sisters, Shasha and Xiaomei.

The graduation season had arrived, and this school year had already ended.

The next school year would begin soon, and the first thing to do at the start of every school year was naturally to pay tuition.

Whether it was an academy for cultivators or an academy for ordinary people.

Neither could bypass this item.

He knew that the tuition at the school was very high.

One year's tuition cost one gold coin.

Given Shasha and Xiaomei's financial situation.

Even if they could pay for Xiaomei's upcoming tuition.

It would still be a heavy blow to their livelihood.

At the very least, they would have to live very frugally afterward.

This might sound somewhat unlikely, as they ran a small inn.

There were guests every day.

But in reality, this inn did not make much money.

There were not many guests, and it was fortunate that they did not hire anyone else, with the two sisters handling everything themselves.

Otherwise, the situation might have been even worse.

They might not even have been able to keep the small inn running.

Having stayed here for over a month, it was impossible for Qin Feng to know nothing about this place; that was not his nature.

With his caution, he naturally had to figure out the general situation wherever he went.

Even the details had to be clarified.

Since Qin Feng insisted, Shasha and Xiaomei eventually accepted the two gold coins.

They promised that Qin Feng's room would be kept for him until he returned to stay.

It must be said that Qin Feng's two gold coins were indeed a timely help.

This made the sisters, Shasha and Xiaomei, very grateful.

They had not expected that an act of kindness from the beginning would receive such a reward.

In a small inn like theirs, no one usually stayed for a long time.

They could tell that Qin Feng was just making an excuse to help them.

After bidding farewell to Shasha and Xiaomei, Qin Feng immediately returned to the Qilian Chamber of Commerce to meet up with Lilith and the others.

At the same time, he wanted to find some missions that required going out as soon as possible to lure the two traitors into making a move.

Otherwise, dragging it out like this was not a solution.

Qin Feng did not have that much time to waste with them.

This was just an ordinary mission.

The good thing about this mission was that the target, Lilith herself, was not completely oblivious.

She was also guarding against these two traitors.

This saved a large part of the trouble.

"Mr. Qin Feng, you're back."

Qin Feng's return made Lilith very happy.

Although she knew that in public, these two would certainly not make a move openly.

And within the Qilian Chamber of Commerce, no one dared to make a move.

But Lilith was still not entirely at ease.

And she was very nervous.

For some reason, whenever she saw Qin Feng, she always felt a bit more relaxed.

Plus, Qin Feng had likely noticed the problem between the three of them earlier.

Yet he was still willing to help her.

This also made Lilith feel a bit more relieved.

She was not stupid.

Regardless of whether the two traitors had noticed, she had realized that Qin Feng must have discovered the problem between the three of them.

Yet he was still willing to travel with her.

It was obvious that he wanted to protect her.

Although she did not know the reason why Qin Feng did this, it was already enough for Lilith to be grateful.

At the same time, she also made up her mind that once she was out of danger, she would definitely thank Qin Feng properly with her family.

However, it was also laughable.

Even a stranger like Qin Feng was willing to protect her, yet the two companions she grew up with, her childhood friends, wanted to kill her.

Merely because of a family order.

But Lilith also knew.

If it were her.

Whether she would make such a choice was hard to say.
