When Lin Xiaowan left to get the tea, Aunt Zheng said, “She's really cute and considerate. I can't help but be gentle when I'm talking to her.”

Aunt Zhang chimed in, “I felt the same way when 1 first met her. She's really beautiful and kind.”

Then, Aunt Zhang said to Qiao You'an, “You should persuade Second Young Master Huo to bring her out more. She's so precious. He can't always hide her at home.”

Qiao You'an explained, “She doesn't really like going out that much. It's useless to speak to him. His wife has the final say at home.”

Upon hearing this, Aunt Zhang asked, “By the way, when did Xiaowan and Second Young Master Huo get married? Why didn't we hear anything about it?”

Qiao You'an shook her head and laughed. “They're not married yet. From the looks of it, they're not in a hurry to get married.”

Qiao You'an had spoken to Huo Zheng about this previously. In her opinion, the duo's relationship was very stable, and even if they were not in a hurry to get married, it was a good idea to get engaged first and let the outside world know about it. At that time, Huo Zheng wanted to wait a little longer. It was almost August now; perhaps, it was almost time.

Aunt Zheng said, “Young people nowadays prefer to get married later. My child is the same. He's not young anymore, but he doesn't even have a female friend around him, let alone a girlfriend.”

Qiao You'an laughed. “You're too anxious. 1 remember your son is only in his third year of high school. He's probably focused on studying now.”

Lin Xiaowan was about to go to the kitchen to get tea bags when she was stopped by one of her employees standing behind the counter. She asked, “What's the matter?”

The employee replied, “When you went upstairs earlier, someone suddenly came over and asked me if the person who went upstairs was you. I asked, but he didn't give me a reason. I felt that it was really strange so I told him it wasn't you. I just said that you were a friend of the boss.”

The employee continued to say, “After that, he asked me when you would come, but 1 said I wasn't sure and that you rarely came to the shop. After that, the few of them left regretfully.”

“The few of them?” Lin Xiaowan raised an eyebrow.

“There were three of them,” the employee said with a nod.

Lin Xiaowan did not expect this. Nonetheless, she was very satisfied with the employee's perfunctory response to them. She gave the other party a thumbs-up and said, “Well done! If anyone asks in the future, you can just say that to them.”

Upon hearing this, the employee sighed in relief. Then, she said, clearly more relaxed now, “Alright. By the way, what are you doing? Do you need my help?”

Lin Xiaowan raised the teapot in her hand and said, “No need. My sister-in-law and her friends don't like sweet drinks so I'm making a pot of tea for them. It's very simple so 1 can do it myself.”

After a moment, she added, “I think there are many customers who don't like sweet drinks as well. Perhaps we should consider adding only tea with nothing else to the menu…”

Zhu Yingyue and Lin Xiaowan were open to listening to their employees' opinions and suggestions. If they had any good ideas, they were welcome to speak to the duo.

The employee nodded in agreement. “I agree. There were quite a few customers who asked us to recommend drinks that weren't so sweet. I think it's a good idea to serve plain tea.”

“Alright. I'll speak to Sister Zhu about this…”

After Lin Xiaowan was done making the mint green tea, she carried the pot of tea up to the second floor. When she was walking up the stairs, she saw a beautiful woman standing at the stairwell, texting on her phone.

When the woman saw Lin Xiaowan, her eyes lit up, and she extended her jade-like arm to stop Lin Xiaowan. She asked curiously, “Are you Lin Xiaowan?”

Lin Xiaowan studied the other party carefully. Seeing that the other party did not seem to harbor any ill intentions, she laughed a little awkwardly and feigned ignorance as she said, “I'm not. I'm just working here.”

“Oh, I'm sorry to have bothered you,” the beautiful woman said with an apologetic smile on her face.

“It's okay,” Lin Xiaowan replied before she hurried away.

After Lin Xiaowan entered the booth, the beautiful woman still stood in the same place, typing on her phone.

Meanwhile, the other customers who had been paying attention to the movements outside began to discuss among themselves.

“Did you see that? She entered that booth again…”

“Yes, I saw her bringing a pot of tea to Madam Huo's booth. I think she's Second Madam Huo…”

“I'll go down and ask again…”

One of them went down to inquire about the matter and returned, looking skeptical and confused.

“So?”

“The employee said that it was not her. She's just a friend who came to help…”

“Well, it makes sense if she's a friend. Otherwise, how could she be acquainted with Madam Huo if she was just a simple employee of the shop?”

“Alright, don't talk about this anymore. By the way, the desserts here are really good. I'm going to buy some back later. My girlfriend likes them.”

The older men and women who visited the shop initially came to get closer to Lin Xiaowan. However, after their visit, they discovered that the desserts were truly delicious, and there were many varieties. Not only that, but the prices were extremely low, especially for them. With this, many of them became loyal customers.

It rained a lot during summer in Shengjing. For several days in a row, it was cloudy in the afternoon. After that, there would be heavy rain.

When the weather was bad, there would be fewer customers at the shop.

Lin Xiaowan also did not go to the dessert shop when the weather was bad. She stayed at home, chatting on the phone or painting in the studio.

Previously, Lin Xiaowan had found a unique and beautiful seashell on the beach. She had commissioned a jewelry designer to make it into a brooch after she returned. It was almost finished, and the designer sent her a photo, asking her to have a look.

Gu Yuwu helped Lin Xiaowan get in touch with the jewelry designer, and the price was very low. After all, the other party was still a student. However, despite being a student, the other party had won a few competitions. Although the other party was not famous, her designs were very unique and beautiful.

When Lin Xiaowan looked at the designer's portfolio, she felt that the other party was really talented. Moreover, perhaps she was new, her attitude was also very good. For all these reasons, Lin Xiaowan agreed to work with her.

The jewelry designer was not based on Shengjing so Lin Xiaowan had to send the seashell over. The designer also selected the gemstones that would be embedded into the seashell. After Lin Xiaowan confirmed it, she got to work immediately.

The jewelry worked very quickly. As soon as she received the seashell, she got to work immediately..
