Chapter 303 - This Dumb Door Won't Open!
At the Metro District.
Ye Qian entered an alley behind a bustling food court while following Yuan Meng, she had still not said anything until now but she had an enthusiastic smile on her lisp while she waited for someone to open the backdoor of the restaurant.
Meanwhile, Ye Qian continued to look at the surroundings.
Though the place was an alley it was kept clean and there was no odour which one would usually smell when they walked behind a restaurant where they would throw their trash and waste out.
Ye Qian knew that many were waiting in a queue and the queue was no joke there were about 20 or so groups who stood out of the food court and with Ye Qian's Divine Perception, he was able to see that not only the restaurant had a crowd on the outside, there were many who were waiting in the inside.
And the ones who were outside would only be considered for about 30% of the number of people who were waiting in the food court with an eager look.
Ye Qian noticed that there was a calm and serene atmosphere within the restaurant and there were many small families and friends who were on the tables while having a hearty meal.
Ye Qian was astonished to see that everyone in the restaurant had the same food in front of them.
Ye Qian carefully looked at everyone's plate and was puzzled to confirm that no matter who the people were all of them were eating the same food and no one even asked for something different.
Ye Qian was quite dazed to see such a scene in the food court but he still didn't ask Yuan Meng since he knew that if she had brought him here this place was bound to have nice food as she was always the one who would suggest what they would eat every time they went on a date.
And Ye Qian was also used to it and he would always love whatever she ordered, it was like Yuan Meng knew all kinds of dishes like she had tried all of them already.
So he didn't believe that this place which she had brought him to was any less than them.
Ye Qian continued to wait with Yuan Meng with a small smile on his lips.
He felt that Yuan Meng seemed to be a bit happy as if she was eagerly waiting for the door to be opened as quickly as possible.
"KNOCK KNOCK"
"Yes yes, I am coming, can't you wait for a few more seconds, you will make this old lady die of a heart attack one day with that knocking of yours."
While Ye Qian and Yuan Meng waited by the door they heard a woman's voice.
The woman seemed to be quite old as she called herself an OLD LADY.
Meanwhile, in front of Ye Qian, Yuan Meng seemed to be excited with a cheerful smile on her lips as soon as she heard his voice.
Ye Qian felt happy for her since there were rarely any people who would make her so much excited to be able to just meet them, now even he was a bit enthusiastic to meet the old lady whom Yuan Meng seemed to respect so much.
"CREEEK"
In a blink of an eye, there was a light creaking sound of the door being opened, but it also seems to be quite old and made many squeaking noises as the lady tried to open it.
"Ahh, how many times I told that man to change this door, but he is still changing it for a decade."
The lady seemed to be angry as she fumed and tried to open the door with more power.
"Ahh, this dumb door won't open."
Yuan Meng chuckled lightly hearing the childlike complaints of the lady and turned to Ye Qian.
"Qian'er, help me open the door, pull it on the outside."
Ye Qian nodded and walked ahead and opened without any force and the door opened without any resistance.
"Haah thank you."
The lady created a mouthful of air as she gasped.
Ye Qian saw that the woman was the same age as his mother and nodded with a bright smile.
"Huh?"
The woman looked at Ye Qian in confusion and studied him from head to toe.
The lady had her hair tied into a big bun which was decorated with a simple yet beautiful looking old design hairpin and she was wearing an apron that had many fresh stains of vegetable gravies and other sauces.
Ye Qian understood that this lady must have rushed in a haste to open the door and so didn't even have the time to remove her apron.
Ye Qian could see that although she was old and had almost all of her hair turned silver she still had an energetic look and was very enthusiastic like a woman in her prime.
There were some hairs on her eyes which she seemed to have trouble shoving behind her hair.
How could she not, she was holding a big bucket of garbage in her hand which also appeared to be quite heavy and after looking at the bucket in her hand, Ye Qian even wondered how was she even able to pick it up much less hold it for so long.
Her body was also frail just like Grandma Yan who was nearly in her 50's and though this woman appeared to be a few years younger there was a bit of wariness in her body and there were many injuries and other swellings on her limbs.
Ye Qian understood that it might be because of the work she must be doing and so nodded.
Meanwhile, the lady was also closely inspecting the young man who was standing in front of her and didn't quite appear to be a garbage man who would usually come to pick the garbage from their food court usually.
