Xu Jing didn't expect that the nearby place Xiao Yi mentioned was really less than a hundred steps from the Ministry of Justice.
She saw Xiao Yi leading her, familiarly turning into a narrow alley next to the Ministry of Justice; there was a small noodle stall there. Since it was quite late now, there was only one table of people left eating noodles.
A woman in her forties or fifties, with a kind and simple face, was tidying up a table. Seeing Xiao Yi walking over, she immediately smiled and said, "Vice Minister Xiao, working late again today?"
It was clear that Xiao Yi was a regular at this place.
Xiao Yi nodded and said, "Had some things to do."
