Yuan Zhou wasn't really trying to invade his privacy by asking that. He was just puzzled why this middle-aged man would end up in such a predicament since he had such skill.
It was the very first time that Yuan Zhou had seen this kind of middle-aged person. His clothes were plain and old while his gaze was clean and experienced. He simply carried a look of "I have a story" on his face.
That made Yuan Zhou almost bring out the word like "I have liquor."
"I'm new here and haven't found an appropriate job." The middle-aged man didn't really eat elegantly, but ate ordinarily instead. Hearing the question, he said straightforwardly.
"You can look for one carefully. There are many opportunities in this place." Yuan Zhou said kindly.
"Um." The middle-aged man gulped down the meal in his mouth and then nodded his head.
Following that was the sound of the two people picking and chewing the dishes continuously. The middle-aged man ate swiftly.
