Seeing that woman, Chiang Xiao couldnāt help but be taken aback.
Du Jinruo?
Why is Du Jinruo here, and even talking with Cheng Qiulian?
Chiang Xiao walked over.
Du Jinruo sensed someone approaching and instinctively looked up. As soon as she saw it was Chiang Xiao, she immediately widened her eyes, "Chiang Xiao?"
"Little, how come youāre here?"
Cheng Qiulian also saw Chiang Xiao and was quite surprised, but immediately felt delighted.
This absentee owner has finally arrived, which means she doesnāt have to worry as much now. She almost thought of pushing down those two rows of seats earlier.
Just as she was about to say something, Chiang Xiao already gently placed her hand on her shoulder and said, "I just went to look for you. The teacher said you were here, so I came over."
Cheng Qiulian listening to her words began to sense something amiss.
Does it feel like she doesnāt want the woman across to know this is her shop?
Since she sensed that, she didnāt continue, only saying to her, "Yes, Iāve been quite busy these days, so I stayed at the shop and went back a bit late."
"Chiang Xiao, do you know Aunt Cheng?" Du Jinruo couldnāt help but ask.
"I do."
"Thatās quite a coincidence." Du Jinruo smiled rather reluctantly. She stood up and said to Cheng Qiulian, "Aunt Cheng, letās go with what we just discussed. Iāll come again in a couple of days, hoping for good news."
"Okay, shall I see you off, Miss Du?" Cheng Qiulian also stood up.
Du Jinruo glanced at Chiang Xiao and quickly said, "No need, no need, you two have things to discuss. Iāll be off now, goodbye."
Watching her go downstairs, Chiang Xiao pulled Cheng Qiulian up and headed to her own office.
This was considered a small reception room and office.
As soon as they stood up, the staff quickly came over to tidy the table, and very soon other customers sat at the previous seats.
After closing the door, Chiang Xiao couldnāt help but laugh, saying to Cheng Qiulian, "Teacherās wife, youāre amazing. The shop looks really good now."
Upon hearing this, Cheng Qiulian couldnāt help but protest.
"Since Iāve agreed to do it, Iāll definitely do it well. On the other hand, can you be reliable? If I donāt actively find you, do you really have no idea about the situation of this shop?"
"I know, I know. The teacher already scolded me earlier, Teacherās wife, please spare me." Chiang Xiao said, quickly changing the topic.
"What did Du Jinruo come for just now?"
"Are you familiar with her?"
"No, thereās no way Iād be familiar with her." Chiang Xiao shrugged. That woman used to have her sights set on Tyrant Meng; why would she want to be familiar with Du Jinruo?
"Sheās been quite a regular customer here lately, coming almost every other day to buy two boxes of pastries, and sheās also bought tea a few times. Today, she came to ask if our pastries could have a new flavor," Cheng Qiulian said, "And just as you didnāt ask me, I was going to discuss this with you."
"What flavor?"
"Taro flavor," Cheng Qiulian said, "Believe it or not, itās not only her who asked about this flavor; other customers have also inquired. They said theyāve been to The South, where theyāve had taro-flavored pastries and liked that taste, so they feel if our pastries had that flavor, they would be really delicious."
Chiang Xiao was taken aback.
These customers even suggest flavors.
However, taro flavor is actually quite nice. She remembers that in pastries and desserts, taro flavor did have a certain popularity.
