Lihao noticed it all and stared at the inn owner hard. After all, he wants to be a gentleman for this lass. If not, then he would have picked her up in his embrace ages ago and would have helped her in resting in a comfortable bed.
But she is not a married girl. And he doesn’t want to do anything that would ruin her reputation.
The inn owner got shocked, scared and finally after recovering his wits, he sent the female helpers, who help Meng Xi support herself. Then, they help her reach her new room, remove the quilt for her, and then let her sleep gently in the bed.
Basically, this was Lihao’s room, since the inn belongs to him. But whatever. It’s not like he minds. The female helper turned retainer stayed in the room, in case the lady of the boss needed something.
