After straightening up the counter and cleaning up the floor, Shu Yu nestled herself behind the counter.
It was early in the morning—there wasn't likely to be any business yet.
Not until the end of the auspicious time did the old lady show up leisurely with Hua Xian, and only then did a few customers begin trickling in.
The customers who saw Shu Yu behind the counter paused in surprise.
Regular patrons of the shop knew that the current shopkeeper was the elder sister of Monarch Lu Xiang. They enjoyed chatting with the friendly and affable Miss Lu.
But today, Miss Lu wasn't there. Sitting behind the counter was a stranger.
Indeed, few people who had seen Shu Yu knew her true identity.
The name "Lu Xiang" was far more well-known than the person herself.
Shu Yu didn't bother to introduce herself. Since it wasn't busy, Hua Xian took the reins and adeptly attended to the customers.
