After rebirth, my mother came to power based on her son.

Mu Qingge couldn't help but laugh softly as she listened to her thoughts.

The shopkeeper seemed to hear the sound and raised his head to look up. Mu Qingge quickly dodged away, but Li Xiao remained motionless and looked at the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper quickly lowered his head and hurried downstairs. Waiting for Mu Yanjing to go out, he closed the door of the inn behind Mu Yanjing.

There was a "bang" of the door closing, and Mu Yanjing was startled. She turned her head to look at the closed inn door. Her expression became increasingly grim. She raised her foot and kicked towards the inn door, but she still had some scruples after all.

What? Before my feet even touched the inn door, I took them back again.

Mu Qingge watched from the rooftop and smiled coldly. As a younger sister, she bullied the weak and was timid sometimes.

Mu Yanjing turned her head and looked towards the dark street. There was no one on the street. She could only vaguely see the lighted lanterns at some inns and large gates in the distance.

Mu Yanjing couldn't help but flinch, and then she took a deep breath and walked into the darkness.

There seemed to be faint footsteps coming from behind, which seemed particularly clear in the silent night. Mu Yanjing carefully turned her head and looked back, and saw a man dressed in black with half a mask on his face far away.

Follow her from a distance.

"Ah!" Mu Yanjing screamed, and without caring about anything else, she ran towards the place where the lantern was lit in the distance.

However, the footsteps behind her did not disappear. Mu Yanjing ran faster and faster. Something seemed to trip under her feet, and she fell to the ground. Her knees and elbows seemed to be injured and hurt.

Very powerful.

But the footsteps seemed to be getting closer. She ignored the pain in her body and hurriedly got up and started running again.

After finally reaching the place where the lantern was lit, Mu Yanjing breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the word inn written on it. She hurriedly ran outside the inn door and knocked on the door.

While knocking on the door, she couldn't help but glance at the way she was running. The strange man wearing a mask saw her knocking on the door of the inn. He seemed to be worried about something, and indeed he didn't go any further.

Mu Yanjing quickly looked away and knocked on the door louder.

Why hasn't anyone opened the door yet?

Mu Yanjing was almost crying. She felt that the man seemed to be eager to walk towards her, and she felt extremely flustered.

The knocking on the door became more urgent.

A response finally came from inside: "It's coming, it's coming, don't knock."

The door finally opened, and Mu Yanjing hurriedly looked at the waiter inside: "I want to stay in the hotel, I want to stay in the hotel."

The waiter at the store was surprised when he saw Mu Yanjing's embarrassed appearance. He only looked at Mu Yanjing and said, "Just stay in the hotel. What's wrong with you? Why do you look like you've hit a ghost?"

"Someone is chasing me." Mu Yanjing's voice was choked with sobs.

"Ah? Where?"

Mu Yanjing raised her hand, turned her head and pointed towards the way she ran: "There."

Mu Yanjing looked over and was suddenly startled.

Where are people?

Where was the person who had been following her just now? Why did he suddenly disappear?

It was still there just now.

"Is there anyone there? Did you see it wrong?"

"I...I didn't." Mu Yanjing rubbed her eyes, but there was no one on the long street.

The waiter was not very interested and just waved his hand: "Anyway, I didn't see anyone. Do you want to stay in the hotel? Come in. How long will you stay?"

Mu Yanjing quickly followed the waiter and walked in: "Stay one night."

"Three taels of silver."

Mu Yanjing opened the bag and was about to take the money from it, but suddenly paused: "I...I, I, I, my banknote is missing."

The waiter looked confused: "A bank note? What kind of bank note?"

Mu Yanjing was really anxious now: "The banknotes in my baggage are missing."

"Where is it missing?" The waiter frowned and looked Mu Yanjing up and down.

"I checked it in the afternoon and it's still there."

"I just ran out of another inn, the one in front of me. I haven't left that inn this afternoon. I was holding on to my baggage tightly the whole way here. There was no way I could drop it."

The waiter frowned: "Then you go back and look for it. Do you want to live in Bawang store? You don't have money?"

"I have money! I can still get the money for the hotel! But my banknote is really missing."

Mu Yanjing's face was full of panic, but she didn't dare to go back to look for it. She was absolutely right, there was definitely a man wearing a mask following her, but when the waiter came out, the man disappeared.

If that masked man came for her, wouldn't it be wrong if she went back...

Mu Yanjing gritted her teeth, turned to look at the waiter, and took out five taels of silver from the bag: "I'll give you five taels of silver, three taels of silver to stay in the hotel, and two taels of silver to you. You come with me and go with me."

Do you want to go to that inn to find a banknote?"

The waiter's eyes fell on the silver, and he suddenly smiled brightly: "Okay, okay, let's go, I'll accompany the lady there."

Mu Yanjing and the waiter hurriedly returned to the previous inn.

She knocked on the door, and the door opened quickly. The person who opened the door was the shopkeeper. When the shopkeeper saw Mu Yanjing, he frowned: "What are you doing back here?"

"I lost a two-thousand-tael banknote. I lost it at your inn. I want to look for it."

"Two thousand taels of silver?" The shopkeeper snorted and said, "You don't want to blackmail me, do you?"

"I really lost two thousand taels of silver in silver notes. I'll go look for it."

Mu Yanjing rushed upstairs regardless. The door of the room was still open, and the inside was still the same as when she had just left. Mu Yanjing searched back and forth several times, but could not find her lost silver.

ticket.

"How could it be? Where is my banknote?"

"Have you found it? I went downstairs but never came back up. Don't say that I took your banknote."

Mu Yanjing was so anxious that she jumped: "But this is where I lost my banknote. I haven't even gone out today."

"Didn't you just go out?"

When the waiter who came with him saw this, he could only say: "If you are really suspicious, why not report it to the official?"

Mu Yanjing gritted her teeth. How could she dare to report to the official?

If she were to report to the police, she might be taken back by her father tomorrow...

"Have you finished the search? Oh, she doesn't dare to report it to the official." The shopkeeper stood at the door with a mocking smile.

Mu Yanjing raised her eyes to look at the shopkeeper, her expression suddenly turned ugly: "It was you, right? It was you who took away my banknote, wasn't it?"

"Give it back to me!" Mu Yanjing shouted and rushed towards the shopkeeper...
