Luh Kai had long guessed that Cheng Su would buy the shop, so when she said she would purchase it, he wasn’t surprised and simply said, "Won’t you consider it a bit more? Aren’t you afraid at all?"
"Not afraid, this shop has plenty of positive energy." Cheng Su pointed at the sunlight inside the shop and smiled.
Luh Kai raised an eyebrow, "Then I’ll talk to my uncle and let you know when to get ready for the ownership transfer, okay?"
Cheng Su nodded, looked around the shop again, not even missing the attic, and the more she looked, the more satisfied she became, feeling a lot lighter.
As the two of them walked out of the shop, someone nearby greeted them.
"Hey, are you renting the shop?" That was a middle-aged woman, around forty or fifty years old, with a mysteriously secretive air about her.
"Big sis, what’s up?" Cheng Su asked with a smile.
The woman came over, glanced into the shop, and said, "Do you know what happened in this shop?" Then she had that look again, as if urging them, ask me, ask me.
Cheng Su could guess what she wanted to say even with her toes, but she still played along and asked, "What happened?"
"Someone died in this shop." The woman wrapped her hands in her sleeves and said, "The previous owner killed his wife here, oh dear, it was so pitiful, a fine family just fell apart like that."
Sure enough, Cheng Su gave a cooperate oh.
"If you’re renting this shop, you better think it through, this isn’t a joke, someone died, so much negative energy!" The woman asked again, "So, what business do you plan to run?"
Cheng Su sized her up, noticed a long apron on her, and looked back at where she came from, a place selling steamed buns, probably the owner of that stall.
"Alright, we can go now!" Luh Kai came over.
Cheng Su then said, "Big sis, we’re not renting the shop." She watched as the woman sighed with relief and added, "I’m buying the shop, as for the business, we’ll see what happens!"
