KFC.
Two burly men were no longer so aggressive.
Uncertain about the woman's background, they cautiously retreated from the table to the staircase on the second floor for safety.
If she really was a friend of the boss, this wouldn't be seen as offensive, and since the stairs were the only passage, there was no worry that she would run away with the lady.
"Aunt Hu Die, don't worry, I won't betray you."
Knowing that her mother might discover them, the little girl whispered with her baby-fat cute face looking very serious, her sworn assurance was almost comically earnest.
The woman named Hu Die pinched her little face and whispered back like sharing a secret, "Thank you, Yao Yao."
They stepped back a bit, but the two burly men still closely watched their every move.
Their close interactions, big and small, were completely within their sight.
The two men looked at each other, their eyes filled with puzzled uncertainty.
Undoubtedly.
The lady definitely knew that woman.
