"Beep... beep... beep..."
"Hello... who is it..."
Hao Jian, still half-asleep, was suddenly jolted awake by the ringing of his phone. He rubbed his eyes groggily, fumbled for the answer button, and pressed the phone to his ear.
"Hao Jian! A new internationally renowned coffee shop just opened in Hua City. Will you go with me to check it out?"
The moment he answered, Shu Ya's bell-like laughter rang through the speaker, making Hao Jian shake his head to wake up fully. Puzzled, he asked, "Coffee shop? Which one?"
"Starbucks, of course! Globally famous!"
"Alright, what time?"
Hao Jian nodded with a smile and asked.
"Three o'clock. I'll wait for you outside the company. Don't be late!"
After saying that, Shu Ya promptly hung up, leaving Hao Jian shaking his head helplessly. He muttered to himself in confusion, "Three o'clock? Is it late already?"
