Chapter 845: Returning Home
The people who had been in the inn earlier had scattered. Overnight, it seemed as if the inn had swapped out its entire crowd. This was nothing strange; travelers were always in a rush, often setting off before dawn.
By the time Mao'er woke up, the people in the inn were no longer the ones from the previous night.
Lihua asked, "Chen the Good Man, Chen the Good Man, where are the people from yesterday?"
Chen Changsheng said, "Perhaps they set out early."
"They just left?"
Lihua blinked and said, "So rushed."
"Yes."
Chen Changsheng let out a breath and ruffled Lihua's hair. "The people of the world are always in a rush."
Lihua asked, "When I followed Ruyi around in the past, the people we met were just like this too. Like Chen the Good Man, Ruyi was also happy to buy people drinks, but most of the time, we would never run into them again. Why is that? Doesn't everyone treasure their silver taels? Why spend silver taels on people they won't meet again?"
