After Li Zhi left, Xia Liu called Liu Lanxin.
"Miss Liu, how are the sales of the herbal wine? It's been a few days, why haven't you gotten back to me?"
This was previously agreed with Liu Lanxin, that once the herbal wine was sold, Xia Liu would need to operate again to prevent stock shortages.
"The herbal wine? It's been sold out for a while now," Liu Lanxin said nonchalantly.
"Damn it! It's sold out and you didn't notify me?" Xia Liu was on the verge of losing it. What was this girl thinking—was she trying to pressure him to lower the cost or what?
"I've been feeling down these last couple of days, so I didn't notify you."
...
A million curses raced through Xia Liu's mind. 'Feeling down' could actually be an excuse, unbelievable.
"If you could come over and hang out with me for a few days, maybe my mood would improve," Liu Lanxin suggested, just as Xia Liu wanted to comfort her.
"That's not a big ask; I'll head over right now."
