He looked towards the milk tea store, eyes clear and slightly narrowed. It wasn't clear what he was thinking.
Lu Zhaoying repeated himself, thinking that he wasn't listening.

Lu Zhaoying was stunned and confused. "What have you found?"
"Speculation." Cheng Juan puffed a ball of smoke as his eyes deepened. "Boss Xu isn't that sympathetic. Something's been off since he arrived at Ninghai Village."
