What she brought today were some Cantonese dim sum, which she was going to put on the restaurant menu.
Madam Xu looked at the exquisite dim sum with a smile on her face. Without any hesitation, she picked up her chopsticks and tasted a piece of the fruit. "It tastes really good. I didn't expect that Madam Shen had such a skill."
