This report startled both Xiang Laner and Feng Chi on the spot.
The term "slovenly old man" was a bit provocative to both of them, and Feng Chi immediately inquired what the slovenly old man looked like.
After a brief description from the attendant, mentioning the wine gourd and the bright red rosacea nose, not only did Feng Chi's face turn pale, but so did Xiang Laner's.
"That thief must be in league with that old man, Miss, this place isn't safe anymore, we need to evacuate quickly," Feng Chi said in a panic, with a hint of once bitten, twice shy.
Xiang Laner was also a bit flustered, but she believed her close-range assessment should have been correct, so she probed the attendant for more detailed information.
