Of course, the boss lady didn't take the initiative to ask Xu Niannian for contact details because she felt certain that Xu Niannian would return.
And sure enough, she did come back, just somewhat later than expected.
Reflecting on the fact that Xu Niannian's delayed visit had cost her several days of earnings, the boss lady's initial excitement shifted to mild displeasure.
"Big sister, why did you come so late? It's been over ten days."
The tone clearly revealed a lack of enthusiasm compared to the warmth she had first shown upon seeing her.
The boss lady planned to take this chance to make Xu Niannian lower her prices. Her reasoning was simple: Xu Niannian relied on them for sales.
Her rushing to show up at their doorstep was evidence enough, wasn't it? Even though it was over ten days late, she eventually came.
