"Master, you don't think this is my fault, do you? No matter who it is, it would seem strange! In the past, when someone was willing to pay, there were always others willing to catch it. Now, we're not refusing to pay, yet why can't we even inquire about it? Could it be they're afraid we can't afford it and would go back on our word?" Zhu Yu muttered with a look of grievance beside Lu Qing, his voice at just the right volume for the Shopkeeper to overhear.
The Shopkeeper was worried that the young apprentice's words might truly resonate with the esteemed guests and cause some misunderstanding, so he hurriedly waved his hands, "No, no, it's not that I'm worried esteemed guests can't afford it.
Looking at everything we just went through, how could I possibly worry that you wouldn't be able to pay!"
