The man and woman then sat down at a table that was right next to Yihshyong and Iren's table. The two people did not look at Iren and Yihshyong at all.
<
"Was that your friend?" The voice of the man in the light brown shirt was so gentle. Slightly less suitable to his stature body.
<
"No. I don't even know her." The woman in the light blue dress shook her head quickly.
<
With curiosity, Yihshyong tried to eavesdrop on their conversation. He didn't need to make much of an effort because the two of them were talking in quite loud voices.
<
"You don't know the girl, but chat with her?" The man laughed.
"I saw her holding a folder with the logo of a company where a friend of mine works. I haven't spoken to my friend in a long time. The last time I saw him was almost a year ago. Three months ago, I tried to contact the house where he's staying but apparently he's moved. The people who live there don't know where he's moved to."
"Why don't you go straight to where he works to see him?"
"I don't know where he works. I don't even know the name of the company he works for. I've only seen the logo of that company. The logo drawn on the folder that the girl is holding is exactly the same as the logo I've seen. So I intend to ask her. It's possible that she works in the same place as my friend."
"So she knows your friend?"
"No. Turns out that girl doesn't even work there. She got the folder from someone who works at that company. Earlier, she gave me that person's business card. The girl asked me to contact the person whose name is on the business card to find out information about my friend ."
<
"What is that girl doing here? Is she looking for something?"
"I didn't ask her that. I asked about the girl's accent instead. It was obvious that she came from somewhere else."
"Where is she from?"
"She said she was from Yeuandong. But she also said, because she had lived in several places, her accent was a mix of accents."
Yihshyong and Iren looked at each other. This fact was quite interesting. If the girl really was from Yeuandong, then there was a possibility that Shannchyuan and the girl knew each other.
"By the way, where's your friend?" The man in the light brown shirt looked around him.
<
"She said she would be late. So she asked us to go inside and order food right away."
The man saw a waiter who appeared from the room behind the payment counter. He waved his hand at the waiter. The servant came immediately. But he did not immediately ask what food they would like to order. That person instead did something that Yihshyong found a little strange. He looked at the two of them without saying anything.
<
"What is it?" The woman in the light blue dress opened her mouth.
"Are you two the guests that Miss Hershyh is waiting for?" The waiter answered the girl's question with another question.
"That's right, we are friends of Hershyh Changpwu," replied the girl.
"Miss Hershyh has reserved a place upstairs," said the waiter. "Please come with me upstairs."
"Is Miss Hershyh upstairs yet?"
"Not yet ma'am! But she just called. She said she would be there in ten or fifteen minutes. She asked us to let her friends sit first in the place she had ordered."
"All right. We'll be there." The man nodded.
The two people quickly stood up. They then followed the waiter towards the stairs that led upstairs. Quickly, they disappeared from Yihshyong's sight.
Iren looked at Yihshyong. "If there are too many coincidences, then things might not just be coincidences.
Yihshyong nodded.
"Next, what are we going to do?" Iren frowned.
Yihshyong did not answer Iren's question. He turned his gaze back out the window. The girl was still standing there. Someone, or something, she was waiting for had not yet come.
<
Suddenly, there was a little boy running toward the girl. He was about eight or nine years old. The boy then gave what appeared to be a piece of paper to the girl. She asked something to the little boy. The little boy shook his head. After the girl gave the money to him, the little boy ran away straight away. His face looked so happy. Or maybe it was just Yihshyong's guess.
<
The girl read the paper she had just received. After finishing reading, she put the paper in his trouser pocket. The girl then started walking.
"Where is she going?" Iren leaned forward.
"Now, hurry up and follow the girl," said Yihshyong. "Try not to find out you're tailing her."
"Huh? Are you serious?"
"Of course I'm serious. Can't you see the look on my face?" Yihshyong pointed at his own face.
Iren nodded. He quickly got up from the chair.
"Remember! Don't make contact with that girl unless it's an emergency."
"Then what about our business here?"
"You don't need two people to carry a bag, right? Let me handle this. I will tell Mr. Shiuander and Mr. Jingdu that you have to leave suddenly because you have other business."
Iren nodded. "Then what about our friends? What will you say later?"
"I'll tell them later that you ran into one of your friends out of the blue. Your friend asked you to talk to someone about work. In short, you got a job offer."
"All right! I'm leaving now!"
Iren then ran out of the restaurant. Yihshyong looked out the window. He could still see the girl walking away. The girl walked quickly. The girl's steps reminded Yihshyong of Shannchyuan's way of walking. It's not very similar, but not too different either.
<
Yihshyong looked at the watch on his wrist. Time seemed to be running very slowly. He didn't want to wait too long at Shiuander Janji's friend's warehouse. So Yihshyong would wait for a while at the restaurant.
