Meanwhile, outside the inn, more than forty bandits were searching through the villagers' houses one by one, looting any valuables they could find.Painful screams echoed in the night as the bandits mercilessly swung their weapons. They showed no mercy to anyone who dared to stand in their way.The terrified cries of women and children added to the horror of what should have been a peaceful night. The once-tranquil village was now filled with fear and chaos.Several young women sobbed as they were dragged away by the bandits. Their desperate cries for their parents did nothing to move the hearts of their captors. Instead, the bandits laughed heartily, pleased with the wealth and women they had seized."Tonight, we shall have a grand feast!" roared a tall, muscular man wielding a large sword. His laughter rang out loudly, matching his terrifying presence."That's right, Chief! We never expected such a small village to be this wealthy—and its women so alluring," one of the bandits repli

Li Jie was stunned by the loud shout. However, he did not realize that the threat was directed at him. He still had his face lifted, though he was no longer looking at the beautiful girl who had just arrived.Bang!"Are you deaf!?" the soldier shouted again while slamming the table where Li Jie and Mei Lian were seated.Li Jie stared sharply at the soldier for a moment. But then he lowered his gaze, not wanting to cause trouble in the dining hall.The beautiful girl, dressed in luxurious noble attire, glanced briefly at Li Jie.

That's why we booked two rooms," Mei Lian replied."What about you, handsome young man? Should I write down two rooms?""Whatever, Auntie! As long as we get a discount," Li Jie replied."Oh, I see. If you're really not this beautiful girl's husband or lover, then doesn't that mean this beautiful auntie here has a chance? You see, I'm a young widow who's been alone for a long time since my husband passed away. If you marry me, this inn could be yours."Li Jie rubbed his eyes repeatedly before closing them."What's wrong? Do your eyes hurt?""I think I just heard a voice. But why don't I see anyone?" Li Jie laughed freely without a trace of guilt."You little rascal...! Do you think I'm a ghost in broad daylight?

Prince Wang Wei demanded.The four personal guards of Prince Wang Wei exchanged glances before one of them stepped forward to answer."Apologies, Prince. We failed to find the girl. When we searched for her at Yu Er's inn, their room was empty.""Empty? What do you mean?""The innkeeper said they left after nightfall, Prince.
