Huang lived in a small building with a courtyard downstairs. They pushed their bicycles into the courtyard. An old woman working downstairs saw two strangers coming in and hurried over to ask, "Young men, who are you looking for?"
Xu Qianjiao looked at the kind lady in front of her with a smile and smiled sweetly at her, "Auntie, we are here to look for Huang Ruoyun, Sister Huang."

"Okay, okay."
Xu Qianjiao and Cheng Jiawen followed the direction pointed by the old lady and walked towards the tube-shaped building in the middle of the yard, and then prepared to go up the stairs to the second floor.
