Su Qiqi was perplexed why Mao An insisted on dining at the city center at this time, when a sea of humanity meshed in vehicle traffic was at its peak.
Eventually, they made their way to the restaurant through the crowd. In the throng of people, Su Qiqi held her bag tightly as they followed the flow of people inside.
Mao An chuckled awkwardly. "Sorry, I forgot it's rush hour right now."
"I've never eaten at this restaurant, so it'll be nice to try." Su Qiqi locked eyes with her and smiled.
Mao An glanced around carelessly, a familiar figure catching her eye, sending chills down her spine.
"If you no longer wish to be here, we could check out another place." Mao An spoke quickly, her tone suggesting a fear of someone changing their mind.
"It's not a significant issue, Sister An, Good food is worth the wait."
Eventually, after about half an hour waiting outside, they were finally led to their reserved seating in the restaurant, "Please have a seat."
