The only empty seat in the inn's hall was right next to Lian Qiao.
"Hey, two ladies, everywhere else is full, shall we share a table?"
The person sat down with a friendly greeting, as if they were old acquaintances.
The two of them: "..."
The innkeeper, come here for a moment, doesn't letting beggars in affect the inn's business? At least have the decency to stop it and exchange a few typical lines!
"Don't look at him like that, I have money. I'm not eating and drinking for free."
The beggar seemed to understand the look on their faces and explained, "Waiter, bring me a plate of donkey meat and a pot of good wine!"
"Right away, sir!"
The waiter was very perceptive, almost as soon as the words were spoken, he came waddling over with a tray, indeed with a plate of donkey meat and a pot of wine.
The two were dumbfounded. This... the level of familiarity, I wouldn't believe you didn't know each other before!
