NFBE Chapter 452: Long-lost Comfort
Chapter 452: Long-lost Comfort
Xing led the three girls into the inn, and lined up in front of the counter to pick the food.
"Hello, I want a room, the cheapest one."
"Sir...Are you sure it's the cheapest one?"
The receptionist at the counter looked at the patrol report on the table and then at the stars and confirmed.
"Why, isn't that enough?"
Xing suddenly became nervous. Could it be that after selling lunch boxes for most of the night, they were still not enough to stay for one night?
"No, it's enough, but the cheapest room we have is a regular single room...you have four people here, right?"
The receptionist said this while glancing meaningfully at the three women behind Xing.
Seeing the look from the receptionist, Qiong and Bronya turned their heads away in embarrassment.
"Just take a short break, sister, just drive on."
Tingyun smiled slightly and spoke.
Hearing this, the receptionist didn't say much, but just took out a room card and handed it to Xing.
"Guest, it's late at night. Please don't make too much noise when you go to bed, so as not to disturb other guests."
"?"
The four of them went upstairs and entered the house. This place was much more shabby than the Yichen Inn where they had stayed in Luofu before.
"So small."
Qiong couldn't help but shook her head as she looked at the narrow single bed, a table and chair, and a simple dressing table.
If the Yichen Inn I stayed in before was a five-star hotel, then this room is barely even a one-star one.
"Don't be disgusted. This is just a small room. We only have enough money to stay for three days."
Xing said helplessly.
"I never thought that we would have to worry about money one day."
Qiong sighed.
"It's already past two in the morning, let's take a bath quickly. I have forgotten how long it has been since I took a hot bath and carefully cared for my tail."
Tingyun sat down on the edge of the bed and complained.
"Yeah, for the four of us, it was almost 4 o'clock after we finished taking a shower."
Qiong nodded.
"And... check-out time is before 12 noon."
Bronya reminded.
"What? We have to check out? That means we don't have much time to rest!"
Qiong covered his head with his hands, looking surprised.
After all, in the real Luofu, the rooms in Yichen Inn can be stayed for as long as they want, and it can be reimbursed anyway.
Even if it cannot be reimbursed, we don't care about this little money.
"Okay, stop dawdling. Qiong, Bronya, you guys go first. We still have to take care of our tails. We won't be able to get out for an hour."
Tingyun opened the bathroom door, looked in, and then spoke to the two of them.
"Eh? Wanna take a shower together?"
Bronya was stunned.
Although everyone is familiar with it, it still makes people feel a little embarrassed.
"Well, let's wash the clothes. We can't always rely on Qiong to do it."
Tingyun nodded and sorted out the clothes for changing and the clothes to be washed.
"Why can't you count on me? I'm just too lazy to wash!"
Qiong argued, but no one paid any attention to her.
"That's also..."
Bronya nodded, took the clothes to be washed from Tingyun, and then called Qiong to go into the bathroom together.
"My benefactor, please take off all your clothes and wash them together."
Tingyun said to Xing while packing his luggage.
"Ah? You just took all the dirty clothes to wash, and I only have this one on."
"It's not easy for us to stay in a hotel, so of course we take all the showers we can."
"What should I wear then?"
"What is he afraid of in the house? Are you shy?"
"Who...who is shy!"
"Then take it off."
"Wait! Let me do it myself!"
In the bathroom, Qiong, who had just wet her body, couldn't help but ask questions when she heard this.
"What are you doing outside?"
"I'm just helping you take off your clothes, you can just take a bath in peace~"
When Qiong heard this, he immediately opened the bathroom door, and looked towards the bed with his head still dripping with water.
I saw Xing sitting on the bed with only his underwear on, and Tingyun was shaking off Xing's shirt beside him.
"What are you looking at? Go take a shower."
Xing saw Qiong also wanted to see this and couldn't help but give Qiong a blank look.
"Tsk, let's see what's going on. It's not like we haven't seen it before."
Qiong curled his lips and was about to retract his head when he saw Tingyun throw his hand.
Xing's shirt directly covered Qiong's head.
"Wow! Tingyun, what are you doing!"
"Let Bronya wash this one as well."
Half an hour later, they finished showering and came out wearing pantyhose, white T-shirts and towels wrapped on their heads.
"I'm done. I'm going now."
The bored Xing saw the two people coming out, threw back the quilt, stood up and said.
Bronya couldn't stop stealing glances at Xing's body, and then her pretty face turned slightly red.
"Xing, please pass me the clothes. I'll hang them up first."
"it is good."
Xing took ten minutes to finish washing, and Tingyun couldn't wait to go into the bathroom.
"Ah - the bed is still comfortable -"
Qiong lay on the bed with her legs crossed and hugged the pillow, moaning.
"It's just a little small...it's crowded for three people. Can four people sleep there?"
Bronya looked at the remaining space on the side and felt a little worried.
"It's okay, just squeeze in and it will be fine. But those sleeping on the side should be careful not to fall down."
Qiong laughed heartlessly.
"That's a good point. Then you sleep next to me."
Xing nodded in agreement.
"How could you bear it?"
Bronya, who was standing by, couldn't help but laugh when she saw this.
"Pfft... Sorry, every time I see Qiong like this I can't help myself."
"What are you doing? Can't I just act cute?"
Qiong's old face suddenly turned red.
The three of them made a fuss for a while, and it was almost four o'clock in the morning.
Even though the three of them were full of energy, they began to feel sleepy after relaxing from a series of events.
In the end, Qiong slept in the middle, Xing slept at the edge, and there was some space left for Tingyun next to Bronya.
"Aiya~ After working so hard for a month, I finally feel comfortable."
After taking a bath and taking care of his tail, Tingyun came out wrapped in a bath towel.
Seeing that the three of them had fallen asleep in a ball, Tingyun smiled slightly.
He threw a ball of flame at the clothes-drying rack nearby. The flame flashed by and the freshly washed clothes were completely dry.
Tingyun took off her bath towel, and her fair figure looked extremely perfect under the moonlight outside the window.
Just as Tingyun reached out to pick up his shirt from the hanger, he heard a low voice from the side.
"Get me one, too."
Tingyun's body suddenly stiffened, and his tail subconsciously curled up to protect himself.
When he turned around, he saw Xing raising his head and looking at him.
Tingyun's eyes twitched slightly.
This kid...isn’t he asleep?
"Don't be stunned, help me..."
Before Xing could finish his words, he felt his head sink and then he fell headfirst.
"My benefactor, please do not look at anything inappropriate."
......
"Get up, get up, everyone. It's almost time to check out."
Tingyun shouted as he opened the curtains, letting the blinding sunlight illuminate the entire room.
"Sleep... for... another... five... minutes... snooze..."
Qiong turned around, facing the sun, and threw herself into Bronya's arms.
"So soft..."
Qiong said this in a daze while rubbing his face hard.
"Qiong! Get up quickly!"
Bronya, who had been woken up and was about to get up, suddenly shouted with a red face.
Then, under Xing's envious gaze, Qiong was pulled up by Bronya.
In front of the counter, Qiong stared at the time and breathed a sigh of relief.
"We were three minutes away from check-out time. What a close call."
"You still have the nerve to say that. Tingyun called us forty minutes in advance, but you just stayed in bed for twenty minutes."
Xing was speechless.
"It's a rare opportunity for us to be together, and I haven't slept so comfortably in a long time..."
Qiong curled her lips.
The receptionist once again gave Xing a meaningful look, which made Xing very embarrassed.
"Guest, I have checked out your room. Here is a letter for you."
The receptionist said this and handed over an envelope.
"letter?"
Xing was a little surprised. How could someone write a letter to him here?
When I opened it, I saw only a few words on the letter.
【Come to the pavilion behind Changletian to meet me. 】
"The courtyard behind Changletian...I'm familiar with it."
Qiong took a look at the letter. After all, it was there that he was played around with for the first time.
"I know it, too."
Xing agreed.
The four of them then went to the pavilion mentioned in the letter.
"It's Jingliu, and there's a white-haired fox next to him."
Qiong saw two people in the pavilion from afar and pointed and said.
"Qiong, don't say that in front of others later."
Tingyun reminded.
"Okay, got it."
When the four people approached, Jingliu calmly raised his hand and made a gesture of invitation.
"sit down."
After saying that, Jingliu brought a pot of tea that had already been brewed and poured a cup for everyone.
"Tell me, how did you and your friends get here?"
"I don't know either. To be honest, no one told us how to leave the secret realm. We thought we could go out to rest and replenish our supplies after training for a month, so we thought about going out from the sea. As a result, we were caught by Fu Xuan as soon as we came out and were thrown into the Prison of Hell as stowaways."
Xing said while sipping her tea.
"As a result, as soon as you entered the Prison of Desolation, a riot broke out in the prison and Hu Lei escaped?"
Jing Liu spoke calmly, as if he already knew the inside story.
"Haha... yeah, what a coincidence."
Xing responded with some embarrassment and guilt.
"Jingliu, look at what you said, could they cause a riot in the Prison?"
On the side, Bai Heng said with a chuckle as if he had heard a joke.
Jing Liu didn't say anything. He just had this feeling after spending a few days with Xing in the secret realm and combining it with the boasts Xing had made to him before.
But as to how these guys did it, I really have no idea.
"How's your sword training going?"
"It's OK. I just realized the essence of sword these few days."
"Yes, that will do."
"Hmm? What can I do?"
Xing Tingjingliu was stunned when he heard this.
Jingliu's lips curled up slightly, staring at Xing and spoke slowly.
"You can join the Cloud Cavalry now."
