The old woman servant who had spoken first didn't come over to eat, but seemed to be watching over Liang Wanqiu from a distance. In fact, she was all ears, listening to the movements behind the shop.
At that moment, she heard the regular murmuring voices from behind the shop stop, followed by a louder bout of pleasantries. She quickly stepped forward, giving Liang Wanqiu a meaningful look.
Liang Wanqiu had been waiting for this moment. Catching the old woman servant's signal, she stood up as if casually and said, "We've been out for quite a long time, and I'm also tired. Let's return now."
The maids and married women by her side hurriedly followed, watching the old woman servant's cues, slowly moving toward the exit.
The old woman servant's guidance was reliable. As Liang Wanqiu and her group reached the corridor, Jinrong and the others also emerged.
