Hua Xiaomai furrowed her brow.
What was going on? She was eager to assert her presence right now, but not only was she being ignored, her voice was easily drowned out. How could this be acceptable?
She turned her head and had barely laid eyes on Little Mouse when the sharp lad swiftly moved a large table in front of her and chuckled mischievously, "Boss, why don't you stand on this? I'll hold it steady for you, guaranteed."
Hua Xiaomai silently praised him in her heart and smiled at him, indeed climbing onto the table. Chun Xi and La Mei were startled and rushed over, each grabbing tightly onto one of her arms and whispering through clenched teeth, "I think you're really asking for trouble!"
Hua Xiaomai ignored them and slowly scanned the troublemakers below, deliberately lingering on the face of an apprentice who was hiding behind others. Seeing him initially startled with his mouth gaping wide and then quickly getting a grip, he bowed his head and squeezed into the crowd.
