"You're a friend of my brother, specially here to help my business, so today I'll give you a free order. If you like the food, you can come back another day to support me again."
That one line "You're a friend of my brother" instantly made Shi Lemeng blush, "Then... then I'll introduce some business to you."
"Sure, I'll thank you in advance then."
Shi Lemeng grabbed her neighbor and hurried away.
She was afraid if she stayed any longer, Lin Xiang would notice something strange.
After another busy spell, most of the dishes she brought were sold, and as it approached nine o'clock, the number of pedestrians on the street dwindled. Lin Xiang took the opportunity to take a break.
Anyway, the Welfare District is close to Aunt Ge's house, just through two alleys, walking back takes less than ten minutes, and there are street lights along the way. Even though the lights aren't very bright and the distance between them is quite far, there is light, making the way back a bit easier.
