Chapter 207: Speak of the Devil

After wandering around the town for a while, the old man didn't feel like buying anything other than some essential living supplies, except for a jug of wine he purchased before visiting the elderly couple's house.

"Are you here?" the old gentleman asked as he opened the door to take the old man's wine. "Come in quickly."

"Sorry to bother you, sorry to impose," the old man said with clasped hands as he led Weiwei and Lu Hong inside. The three of them sat around the square table in the living room.

The old man poured a few cups of water and said with a smile, "The dumplings have just been put in the pot; we'll have to wait a bit."

"No worries at all, we're not in a hurry. There's nothing much to do when we get back anyway."

Shaking his head, the old man commented, "I've got to have a word with you about that."

"What's up?" the old man asked, puzzled. "Should I be in a rush to eat or to get home?"
