The moment they turned and saw who it was, the atmosphere changed completely.
Bai Ming's expression turned cold, while Fu Fei's brows drew together immediately. Fu Li did not bother to hide her displeasure, and none of them looked pleased.
Li Manman stood there with a faint, mocking smile, as if she had been expecting this reaction all along. Beside her, Fu Fong looked relaxed, his gaze lingering on them with open interest.
Fu Li spoke first.
"You own this inn?" she asked, her tone sharp and unconvinced.
Li Manman let out a soft scoff.
"Surprised?" she said, lifting her chin slightly. "Your Su Long can buy a farm, and you think I cannot open an inn for myself?"
Her words carried a quiet edge.
Fu Fei's expression darkened.
"How do you know sister-in-law has a farm?" she asked, her voice steady but no longer calm.
Fu Fong answered without hesitation.
"Who does not know?" he said lightly. "She is already the talk of Unit 50."
His gaze shifted, and his tone lowered slightly.
