“Please stay for lunch,” Yuan Zhou offered.

 “It’s fine.
We still have something else to do,” said Carpenter Lian with a wave of his hand.

 “Alright.
Remember to stay for a meal next time,” Yuan Zhou offered instead.

 “I will definitely grab a meal here when I deliver the cabinet,” Carpenter Lian nodded.

 “Travel safe,” Yuan Zhou said.

 “Ok.
You don’t have to send us off.
Your customers are already waiting in line,” Carpenter Lian said as he pointed at Wu Hai.

 “Um, thank you,” Yuan Zhou nodded and stood at the door as he watched them leave.

 “Master,” after some distance away, the middle-aged man called out at his master.

 “In a month, make a pseudo-classical eight people table with mortise and tenon joints, the eight chairs included as well.
That will be your practice,” said Carpenter Lian.

 “Yes, master,” the middle-aged man agreed with a bitter expression.
He did not dare to say anything else and nodded repeatedly.

 He started regretting his words and actions earlier due to his dissatisfaction.
A set of pseudo-classical eight people table with mortise and tenon joints in a month would probably cost him a sleepless month.

 But he did not dare to say anything.
Carpenter Lian had obviously seen through what he was doing earlier.
This was his form of punishment.

 “Compass, did you make something delicious earlier?” Wu Hai eyed Yuan Zhou suspiciously before looking at the two leaving carpenters.

 “Huh?” Yuan Zhou could not understand Wu Hai’s logic.

 Why would Wu Hai automatically assume anyone walking out of the restaurant to be people who had just eaten in it?

 Sniff.
Sniff.

 Wu Hai stepped forward and sniffed Yuan Zhou’s body before speaking.

 “No smell of food.
Are they here for a renovation? Compass, you’re renovating your place?” Wu Hai asked in astonishment.

 “How did you even reach that conclusion?” Yuan Zhou could not even be bothered to explain.
He was more curious about Wu Hai’s thought process.

 “The two are dressed in simple clothings that are durable yet dirty.
One of them is holding a wooden chest.
They both have rough hands, and it is clear they do heavy jobs for a living.
They are also wearing sneakers that are convenient to move around with.
It is obvious they are working in the renovation industry,” Wu Hai explained while rubbing his mustache.

Yuan Zhou was rendered speechless by how confident Wu Hai seemed.

 “They are actually carpenters.
Have you been reading too many mystery novels recently?” Yuan Zhou asked.

 “No way.
I’m reading Gu Long’s books.
Recently, people are telling me I look like Lu Xiaofeng,” said Wu Hai smugly.

 “Hoho,” Yuan Zhou turned and returned to the restaurant.
He wanted to ask Wu Hai if he could, with a good conscience, claim that he truly looked like Lu Xiaofeng.

Yuan Zhou decided to leave as he was scared that if he stayed, he would have the urge to split Wu Hai’s skull to see what his brain was made of.

 “Do you think I look like him, Compass?” Wu Hai asked shamelessly.

 Yuan Zhou thought that the topic would end if he ignored Wu Hai.
Normal people would indeed stop there, but Wu Hai had continued it instead.

 “He is not this shameless,” Yuan Zhou said seriously.

 “I am merely being honest.
Whenever I eat, I am a person of honor,” Wu Hai said seriously.

 Not even Yuan Zhou could say anything to this.
He started focusing on cleaning his kitchen and preparing for lunchtime.

 “Since Compass is busy cooking, I should ask the others in the chat group instead,” Wu Hai muttered as he took out his phone and started bothering others.
When there were no outsiders, Wu Hai would call Yuan Zhou Compass, but when there were outsiders around, he would address him as Boss Yuan instead.
In a way, he was rather respectful of Yuan Zhou.

 Meanwhile, an incident happened at the opening ceremony attended by Shaquille O’Neal, causing all the reporters in Chengdu to be on a hunt for him.
