When he saw the token presented by the guard, his eyes suddenly lit up, "Where is that person now?"
"When I get back to the shopkeeper, this token was sent by the waiter of the Smiley Face Inn. He said that the person holding this token is currently living in the Smiley Face Inn!"
"Smiley Face Inn?"
Qiu Yijian said excitedly: "I, the shopkeeper, will come over immediately!"
After that, he strode out and directly pushed Lu Fengling aside.
Lu Fengling stood there, his expression extremely depressed.
Didn’t you just say that you were going to hold a banquet to cleanse yourself from the dust?
Why did you forget about this matter in the blink of an eye?
But he wasn't stupid, he immediately thought of something.
The man who lives in the Smiling Face Inn must be an extremely important person.
Otherwise, given Qiu Yijian's status, usually only the other party comes to visit him. To make Qiu Yijian so excited and willing to take the initiative to visit him, one can imagine how extraordinary his origins are.
"Ah... right!"
Not far away, Qiu Yijian seemed to realize something. He turned around and gave Lu Fengling an apologetic smile, "The shopkeeper is going to meet a mysterious guest, and I may have to deal with you next time!"
"Shopkeeper Qiu is serious. Since you have distinguished guests to meet, I can't delay your business. Just go ahead and do your business, and we will make arrangements on our own!"
Lu Fengling hurriedly smiled.
Qiu Yijian didn't waste any time, nodded and left in a hurry.
Lu Fengling, who was left out, had no choice but to take the bounty, and then left the Jubao Auction House branch with his subordinates in despair.
"Chief escort, what kind of mysterious guest do you think Shopkeeper Qiu is going to meet?"
One of the escorts asked curiously.
"I want to know too!"
Lu Fengling sighed: "To make Shopkeeper Qiu so excited, his identity must be extremely complicated. It would be great if I could also meet him."
"Chief escort, isn't this simple?"
The escort smiled sinisterly and lowered his voice: "The person who came to report to Shopkeeper Qiu just now said that the mysterious guest is at the Smiley Face Inn!"
"You mean..."
"good!"
Before Lu Fengling finished speaking, the escort nodded heavily, "If we want to see that distinguished guest, we can go to the Smiley Face Inn ourselves!"
"But can we afford to bump into Shopkeeper Qiu or that mysterious guest like this?"
Lu Fengling was a little worried.
"What are you afraid of?"
The escort said disapprovingly: "Anyway, we are just looking for an inn to stay. If we are met by Shopkeeper Qiu, we can lie and claim it is just a coincidence!"
"What a conspiracy...ah no, what a good idea!"
Lu Fengling suddenly beamed with joy, "In this case, we set off immediately. We must get into the Smiley Face Inn before Shopkeeper Qiu!"
…
Half an hour later, Smiley Inn.
"Sir, it's been almost an hour, why hasn't Qiu Yijian come yet?"
Sitting in front of a table filled with dishes, Jin Lin said with some displeasure.
After letting the waiter take the token and leave, they walked out of the room and waited in the lobby.
The waiter has been back for a quarter of an hour, but Qiu Yijian still hasn't arrived.
"Since you're not coming, we won't wait any longer. Let's eat first. It's important to fill our stomachs!"
With that said, Ye Chen started to use his chopsticks to pick up the vegetables.
If Qiu Yijian didn't come, he might be a little disappointed.
But, that's all.
After all, he and Qiu Yijian only met by chance, and their friendship was not close enough to a deep friendship.
What's more, the other party is still a businessman.
If the other party feels that there is no profit to be made, it is normal not to come.
"Crack!"
Just as he and Jin Lin were engrossed in eating, a group of guests walked into the inn again.
Ye Chen didn't care much at first, but after subconsciously taking a glance, he couldn't help but be a little surprised.
"Boss Mr. Lu, do you want to stay in a hotel?"
He first said hello with a smile.
After all, it was quite a coincidence that we met each other and suddenly bumped into each other at the same inn.
"Master Ye, Miss Jin!"
Lu Fengling came over, also a little surprised, "Why are you here?"
"We're staying in this inn!"
Ye Chen said.
"So, after you separated from us, you came to this inn?"
"Yes, what's the problem?"
Ye Chen asked back.
Lu Fengling did not answer immediately. Instead, he glanced around. After seeing nothing unusual, he lowered his voice and said, "I heard that a mysterious figure lives in this inn. If you also live here, you'd better be careful.
Be cautious, lest you offend that big shot without knowing it!"
"Big shot?"
Ye Chen glanced around, shook his head and said, "We just moved in not long ago, and we don't seem to have seen anyone special."
Jin Lin also echoed: "I really didn't see any special people coming in or out."
"Didn't see it?"
Lu Fengling frowned.
But after thinking about it, he felt relieved again.
"That big shot must be very low-key and keep everything simple, so he wasn't discovered by you!"
He said categorically: "After all, those mysterious and powerful people generally don't like to show off their talents in front of ordinary people!"
"I do not know!"
Ye Chen shook his head, with no trace of emotion on his face.
Although he also wanted to know who the big shot in Lu Fengling's words was.
But, it's just out of curiosity.
If it requires him to spend more time and energy to inquire, he won't be interested.
“It’s okay not to know!”
Lu Fengling kindly reminded: "Anyway, if you continue to live here, remember to be careful in your words and deeds. Don't blame me for being nagging, I am doing it for your own good!"
He had indeed despised Ye Chen and Jin Lin before.
But ever since Jin Lin used shocking means to destroy Chen Zhengyi, the leader of the Wolf Gang, in the Grim Wind Canyon, instead of daring to look down upon him, he was very grateful.
Of course, he still had some disapproval of Ye Chen.
Even if Ye Chen's family background is not weak in the Southern Territory, this is the Central Territory after all. If he is not strong enough, it is still difficult to walk here relying on his background.
"Thank you Mr. Lu for the reminder, we will pay attention!"
Ye Chen smiled and nodded.
Immediately, he asked again: "Mr. Lu, the bodyguard also wants to stay in this inn?"
"I have this plan, but..."
Lu Fengling pondered for a moment and then said: "To be honest, the reason why I came here just to see who that mysterious big man is!"
"You don't know who it is?"
Ye Chen was startled.
"It's just because I don't know, that's why I'm curious!"
Lu Fengling spread his hands and said, "If you are lucky enough to get the glory of that big shot, that would be the best. Even if you can't get the glory, as long as you find out the origin of the other person, it will be a kind of gain!"
"Uh... Mr. Lu, as long as Mr. Lu likes it!"
Ye Chen smiled awkwardly, and then asked: "Why don't you sit down and eat with us?
There’s a lot of food!”
"No, I have to make some preparations in advance so as not to miss the best opportunity!"
Lu Fengling bowed her hands to Ye Chen and Jin Lin, "You two eat slowly, I won't disturb you!"
"OK!"
Ye Chen didn't try to stay either.
He was not familiar with these people, so naturally he didn't want to eat at the same table with them.
The invitation just sent out was just a polite word.
"Crack!"
At this time, a sound of footsteps came from outside the inn.
Looking around, I saw a group of people striding into the inn.
The leader is tall and fair-looking, like a gentle scholar. He looks gentle and approachable.
However, as this person entered, Lu Fengling's expression changed.
Because this young man is so familiar to him.
It is none other than the shopkeeper of Jubao Auction House, Qiu Yijian!
However, just when he didn't know which corner to hide in, Ye Chen, who had been eating just now, got up and strode towards the young man.
"Hey, what are you doing?"
Lu Fengling was startled and hurriedly pulled Ye Chen back.
"What's wrong?"
Being pulled by Lu Fengling, Ye Chen said in surprise.
"This is the treasurer of Jubao Auction House, and he came here precisely to meet the mysterious big man I just told you about!"
He forcefully dragged Ye Chen into the corner and turned his head to one side, as if he was afraid of being recognized by Qiu Yijian who walked in.
