Zhu Defu drove straight to Sun Qimei's house, where she had already opened the door for him.
"I know a place that's very convenient. I didn't think after all these years that it would still be useful."
They walked to the kitchen, where Sun Qimei picked up a stove hook and lifted a cover slab hidden under the floor tile, revealing a space below: "This used to be a cellar for storing winter vegetables. I've been living alone for years and didn't need it, so it's been unused. It's perfect for storing things. I'll buy some charcoal and put it down there to keep out the damp. It's the best spot for your private stash; even if burglars come, they'll never think of it."
"I never imagined you had a place like this."
