Chapter 308.1
The night was dark and silent .
It hadn’t been very peaceful on Dream Mountain lately, so the shopkeeper exhorted the waiter not to fall asleep no matter what . There were a lot of customers in the inn and their safety was his responsibility . However, it was hard not to get sleepy as night grew long . In addition, there was the fact that he had inhaled the incense in that guest room . Once the surroundings grew quiet, he couldn’t help but feel drowsy and his eyelids kept slipping down .
In the end, he fell asleep on the table .
Right after he fell asleep, a cold light appeared in the seam of the door . A sharp blade lifted the door lock and a group of black-clothed men quietly entered the inn .
The leader first moved over to cover the waiter’s mouth and drag him into a room . Afterwards, he made a hand gesture and the rest of the black-clothed men moved silently up the stairs .
Jun Xin, who was sleeping on the ground, immediately opened his eyes and walked quietly over to the door . Pushing it open just a crack, he took a look outside and saw that there were black-clothed men walking in and out of the other rooms . He furrowed his brows . These people had gone through a lot of trouble to get the mosquito-repellent incense that even nobles struggled to get ahold of in order to mix it with the providence perfume on the fan and create a knockout drug . Did they really go through all that trouble just to find something?
What were they looking for?
Jun Xin closed the door and walked to the bed to push Tang Doudou, who was sound asleep .
Tang Doudou flipped over and muttered, “Jun Xin, quit that . I’ll get up after just a few more minutes . ”
Doting affection flashed through Jun Xin’s eyes, but his expression was annoyed as he leaned over her ear and said, “There’s a fire!”
Tang Doudou abruptly sat up and was just about to scream when Jun Xin hastily covered her mouth and pressed her back onto the bed .
Her eyes widened as she tried to push him off . “MMmmpwh…”
“Shhh!” Jun Xin shot a look at her . “Someone’s coming, don’t make any sounds . ”
Tang Doudou finally calmed down a little, then glared at him . Fudge, couldn’t he have made things clearer? And why did he push her down?!
She pushed at him a little and Jun Xin let go of her and got up .
Tang Doudou wanted to curse at him, but when she saw that there were people moving outside, nervousness immediately replaced her anger . She peeked outside as she whispered, “What do we do? There seems to be a lot of them?”
“They’re just looking for something . They don’t seem to be hurting anyone . ” Jun Xin lowered his eyes, then glanced at her . “Do you have big guts?”
A trace of confusion flashed through her eyes . What was Jun Xin doing now?
“Of course!” Even if she didn’t have big guts, there was no way she could show weakness in front of this brat .
Jun Xin nodded . “Alright then, let’s continue sleeping . ”
Tang Doudou’s jaw dropped . “Huh? What if they get annoyed and decided to start killing people?”
“Then we’ll deal with it when that time comes,” said Jun Xin as he pulled Tang Doudou back towards the bed .
“What are you doing?”
“I can’t sleep on the ground, otherwise they find out that we’re aware of their presence . Also, I don’t feel assured when you’re not right next to me . ”
Tang Doudou felt uneasy . Was that really all?
But Jun Xin didn’t give her a chance to think more about it . He picked the blanket up from the ground, then lay down on the bed sideways while facing her . Patting the spot in front of him, his eyes sparkled as he said, “Come on up!”
