Chapter 696 The Man Who Doesn't Understand Romance (5)_1

Zhou Laowu was a straight-talking man. Upon seeing the respectful demeanor of the two men and their gifts, he said truthfully, "I don't mean to disappoint you both but you've come too late. That girl Wei'er, has already left."

"She left?"

Their faces fell as they heard this, and the man holding the jewelry box anxiously asked, "May I ask, Shopkeeper, do you know where Miss Mu went to? How long has she been gone?"

Zhou Laowu, being forthright, said, "She left less than one Shi Chen (approximately one hour) ago."

The faces of the two men changed again, their eyes flashing. The one holding the jewelry box hesitated for a moment then handed over the box. "In that case, when Miss Mu returns in a few days, Shopkeeper, please do me the favor of delivering this box to her," he said.
