Chapter 124 The Shopkeeper is Too Enchanting 4

"Knock knock knock!"

"Is Manager Mo here?"

"Just come in!"

Luo Junche's hand on the door hesitated for a moment, "Manager Mo... is it convenient?"

"Is…is there anything inconvenient? Ouch! Come in and help me! The door is not closed, just push it!"

Mo Chen's voice was heard from the room, mixed with an exclamation, as if he had indeed encountered some trouble.

Luo Junche no longer hesitated and pushed the door in front of him open, "Then I'll come in."

"Come on!"

Seeing him push the door open, Mo Chen waved to him, then pointed at something on top of the cabinet, "You're tall, come and help me take this quilt down, I really don't know how I put it up there."

Luo Junche glanced at the place where she pointed and walked over in three or two steps.

"Is it this one?"

There were several thin quilts placed on top of the wardrobe. Luo Yunche touched the top plain quilt with his hand.

"Yes, the others are too expensive. It's more appropriate for a grown man like you to build this one."

"Give."

Luo Junche took down the quilt and handed it to Mo Chen, but received a puzzled look in return.

"Why are you giving it to me? This is originally for you. Just take it back yourself. Why are you so stupid at this time? You want me to regret it, right?"

"Sorry." Luo Junche took back his hand and hugged the quilt in his arms, lowering his head a little embarrassedly, "This is the first time I enter a girl's boudoir."

"Pfft!"

Although he knew that this guy was most likely pretending, Mo Chen was still amused by his reaction.

Mo Chen put one hand to his mouth and laughed twice, "Why are you so innocent? This makes me want to tease you."

Hearing this, Luo Junche looked up at Mo Chen in surprise, then took a step back helplessly as if burned by her explicit gaze, and said with red ears,

"Shopkeeper, stop joking."

"Oops~"

Mo Chen smiled helplessly, "You really can't stand being teased. Okay, take her back. I'll get you a pillow."

"it is good."

Luo Yunche pursed his lips and replied in a low voice.

"Whoo~"

Luo Junche walked out of the room and breathed a sigh of relief, holding the quilt in one hand and pinching his collar with the other. This woman didn't look like she was joking. It seemed that he not only had to find clues as soon as possible, but also had to be on guard against being taken advantage of by her.

"Here, pillows and sheets,"

Mo Chen walked into Luo Yunche's room and threw the things he had on his bed.

"If there's anything you need, just tell me. I can reimburse you within a reasonable range."

"Okay, but..."

Luo Junche looked up and scanned the room. "There shouldn't be anything missing. I'll have to go back to the inn to get my things. If I do, there shouldn't be anything missing."

"Go back to the inn? When? Are you coming back for lunch? We provide meals here."

"I'll be there once the bed is made. I don't have a lot of stuff so it won't take long. I should be back soon."

"Okay." Mo Chen raised the corners of his lips and smiled happily, "That's great, I have a companion for dinner. I thought I would eat alone today. Then I'll wait for you to come back. The chef is not here, so I'll take you out to eat later."

"This..." Luo Junche looked a little surprised, "Isn't this too expensive? If the shopkeeper can't cook, I can also cook."

"It's okay. I have money."

Mo Chen waved his hand domineeringly, "You should take advantage of these two days to have a good rest. The last thing I lack is money, so you don't need to worry about it."

"Okay, go ahead and do your work. I'm going to go back. Come find me when you come back from the inn!"

After saying this, Mo Chen went out in a hurry.

Luo Junche looked at her departing back, a hint of deep thought flashing in his eyes. This Shopkeeper Mo is really hard to figure out.

"My Lord, you are back."

As soon as Luo Junche opened the door, he saw Gao Li sitting in his room waiting for him.

"Keep your voice down."

Luo Junche frowned and scolded in a low voice.

After saying that, she turned around, closed the door, and sat down opposite Gao Li.

"How was your investigation today?"

"Sir, I have almost found out the general situation of Youyun Tower."

Gao Li placed one hand on the table and gestured with the other hand, and began to tell everything he knew.

"This Youyunlou opened two months ago. Business was average when it first opened, but people who came here said that the owner was good-looking and her appearance was a thousand times more beautiful than the courtesans in the brothels. Word spread quickly, and many people came to Youyunlou just to see the owner's beauty."

"But, since she's good-looking, there will always be some random people who want to covet her. I heard that a lot of blind men came to Youyun Tower and flirted with the shopkeeper verbally. Some even tried to get close to her, so the shopkeeper couldn't stand it anymore and picked out the most outrageous man and beat him up."

"Tsk,"

At this point, Gao Li shook his head, a trace of regret appeared on his face.

"It is said that the man was beaten so hard that he couldn't get out of bed for a long time. He was quite pitiful. But because of this, everyone knew that the shopkeeper was a martial arts expert and was not someone to be trifled with. So no one dared to cause trouble in Youyun Tower."

"Pathetic? Ha!"

Luo Junche snorted lightly and said in a cold tone, "This scum dared to do such a disrespectful thing to a woman in broad daylight. Who knows how many girls he has harmed behind the scenes. He got nothing but a beating, which is a good thing for him."

If she didn't have the means to protect herself, I don't know how a woman like her could survive here.

wrong!

This woman was not a good person to begin with, so why should he care about her survival?

Luo Yunche shook his head, throwing away all those thoughts.

"Go on, what else do you know?"

"I also heard that the owner of Youyun Tower seems to have a close relationship with the government. The man who was beaten went to report to the government after his injury healed. Although he molested the girl first, he didn't succeed, but he was beaten like that. According to the law, he should at least pay him some money. However, the government not only didn't ask the owner to pay, but instead asked the guy who was beaten to compensate for the loss of the inn at that time."

"So from now on, no one dares to come to Youyunlou to cause trouble. However, there are still many people who are curious about the shopkeeper. In addition, the food made in Youyunlou tastes really good, so the business is booming now."

“Is it collusion between officials and businessmen?”

Luo Junche's face was lost in thought.

"If it was really a case of collusion between officials and businessmen, they would never put such a thing out in the open. They would just wait for someone to investigate. So it must not be that simple."

After saying that, Luo Yunche raised his eyes and looked at Gao Li, "Today I went to Youyun Tower and found that they were hiring, so I took the opportunity to work as a waiter in Youyun Tower. I will stay in Youyun Tower to investigate. You go find a more secret house first, and then find a chance to check some things out in the Jindu government office. If you find anything, you can come to Youyun Tower for dinner. I will find you when the restaurant closes in the evening."

"Yes, my lord."

Gao Li folded his hands in front of him and lowered his head.

"Okay, I have to go back quickly. I came here to pack my things, but I didn't expect you to come back so soon. The owner of Youyun Tower is waiting for me to eat."

After saying that, Luo Junche immediately stood up and started packing his things.

"Wait for you to eat? This shopkeeper will wait for his subordinates to eat, is that so nice? Could it be that she..., sir, you are so majestic, this shopkeeper must have taken a fancy to you, otherwise why would he wait for you to eat on this first day?"

"What are you talking about!"

Luo Junche paused in his packing motion, frowned, and retorted in a somewhat distracted manner, "Youyunlou is closed for the past two days, and no one else is in the store. She can't just want a companion for dinner. Besides, Youyunlou provides meals, and since no one else is here, of course she has to take responsibility."

"I see. Then..."

"What about that!"

Luo Junche packed up his things, put the bag on his back, turned around and looked at Gao Li with a cold face.

"Are you free? You still have time to talk nonsense here."

Gao Li's expression froze and he closed his mouth in disappointment.

"Hurry up and do what I told you to do. I'm leaving now."

----

Mo Chen sat in the room for a long time. He was so bored that he found a storybook and went to the yard to sit and read in the sun.

She didn't know how much time had passed, but her stomach was growling with hunger, but Luo Junche hadn't come back yet.

Mo Chen closed the book and laid on the table in pain. Damn it, I clearly told her it would be quick.

If I had known I wouldn’t have waited for him. I would have starved to death!

Mo Chen lay on the table and silently complained in her heart about the big liar who had made her wait for a long time. She was enjoying her complaints when she suddenly heard someone's footsteps. She stood up excitedly and saw the person as expected.

"you are back!"

Mo Chen stood up excitedly and trotted over to Luo Junche.

"You're finally back. What took you so long? I was starving!"

When Luo Junche heard Mo Chen's voice, he stopped where he was, and then saw a green figure running towards him.

Her eyes were bright and her smile was brilliant. Her hair fluttered gently as she ran. The sunlight shone directly on her body, making her shine brightly.

Luo Junche watched her running towards him so lively and active, his mind went blank for a moment and he forgot to react. Only the sound of his heartbeat, which was beating faster and faster, revealed his mood at the moment.
