"Huh?"
Before Lin Xue could answer, Mu You looked at Zhao Qian in confusion. "Didn't you refer her here?"
"Me? No, I haven't even had time to spread the word for you yet!" Zhao Qian was deeply embarrassed. She had forgotten Mu You's request the moment she turned around.
The two stared at each other for a while before turning their eyes to Lin Xue in unison.
"Then how did you find this place?" they asked together.
Lin Xue adjusted her glasses and calmly explained, "It's a long story..."

Lin Xue didn't refuse. Instead, she turned to look at Xiao Ya beside her. "You haven't eaten either, have you, Xiao Ya? Come with us."

"Watch what shop? You don't have any customers!"
