Out of politeness and respect, Sheng Xian stood up and, along with his assistant, saw Auntie Sun out.
Perhaps feeling overly apologetic, Auntie Sun stopped when she reached the table next to Lu Jingyan.
Lu Jingyan, fearing he might be recognized by Auntie Sun, hastily raised a hand to cover his face and bowed his head, pretending to be a passerby engrossed in his phone.
Auntie Sun bowed apologetically to Sheng Xian and his assistant, "I'm really sorry for the inconvenience today."
Sheng Xian's assistant, a person with a very amiable disposition, quickly bowed in return, "It's no problem at all, Auntie. Please go home and try to persuade her. You can contact me anytime."
Auntie Sun bowed again: "Thank you so much."
Sheng Xian's assistant followed suit with another bow: "You're being too polite, Auntie."
"..."
As the two of them continued this back-and-forth, Lu Jingyan quietly lowered his head further.
