Mu You paused the game and opened WeChat, about to message Lin Xue and ask.
Just then, the wind chimes at the entrance suddenly rang.
A young man in a suit and polished shoes pushed the door open and entered, only to step halfway back out again. He carefully compared a photo on his phone with the sign overhead before stepping inside once more, muttering, "This should be the place... Wonder Pet Store. What a generic name. Why would my sister come somewhere like this..."
Mu You looked up. Surprisingly, the first customer of the day was someone he knew.
It was Lin Hai, the rich second-generation livestreamer who had reportedly joined the Merchant Alliance not long ago. Mu You hadn't expected him to suddenly show up at his store today.
Lin Hai was about to say something when he spotted Mu You sitting behind the counter and froze.
After studying Mu You for a few moments, his eyes suddenly lit up. "Huh? Master?"
"That's me."
Mu You nodded, feeling a little puzzled himself. He wasn't wearing the Night Watchman's Skin right now, so he had no idea how Lin Hai had recognized him.
"It really is you, Master! I never imagined this was your store... Oh, so my sister's been working for you lately. No wonder!" Lin Hai exclaimed in belated realization.
"What brings you here? Where's your sister?"
Mu You looked at Lin Hai. Lin Xue hadn't come to work today, but her younger brother had come looking for him instead... That gave him a vague suspicion.
"Oh, my sister asked me to come. This is her resignation letter."
Lin Hai took a folded sheet of paper from his bag and handed it to Mu You.
"Resignation..."
Mu You frowned as he took it and looked it over.
