Shen Lu had a faint, ominous premonition. After she left Boss He's storefront and went to two other ingredient suppliers, only to be turned away from them as well, her heart sank.
It was obvious someone was targeting her.
No, a group of people, more like.
'Could the other restaurant owners in the Lower City District have teamed up to teach me a lesson?'
Her mind was a mess, but Shen Lu forced herself to calm down. The most important thing right now was ingredients, not finding the mastermind behind all this.
Besides these few major suppliers, the Lower City District also had some small, independent vendors. Shen Lu hadn't considered them before because her order volumes were large, and for the sake of convenience, she had always dealt with the major suppliers.
Now, she had no choice but to try her luck at a few more places.
But without exception, even the small vendors refused to sell her any ingredients.
Shen Lu laughed, exasperated.
