Chapter 227: It Makes Sense

"Xiao Mey!" Xu Mey heard someone calling out to her as she just stepped into her office building. She looked around to find Zhu Chen walking towards her. Her eyes glinted as she was taken by surprise.

"Uncle Chen, what a pleasant surprise. What are you doing here so early in the morning?" Xu Mey was clearly very surprised to see him but she knew something was amiss. Otherwise, Zhu Chen wouldn't have sorted her out like this. Not so early in the morning for sure!

"Is there a coffee shop where we can talk?" Zhu Chen asked in his gentle tone.

"Umm... There is actually. Let's go there," Xu Mey led the way and brought him to a small coffee shop near her office. It was a small shop with a minimalistic interior. Xu Mey took a seat at the window table and Zhu Chen followed suit.

The waitress in her late twenties came up to them to take their order.

"One Espresso!" Xu Mey said without looking at the menu and looked at Zhu Chen for his order.
