Explanation of Responses:

1. Each American depositary shares (two American depositary shares representing three Class A ordinary share, par value US$0.000002 per share)

2. 10,328,321 Class A ordinary shares directly held by 4DDL Holding Limited, that may be deemed to be beneficially owned by Mr. Changlin Liang, as the sole shareholder of 4DDL Holding Limited.

3. This Amendment amends the prior disclosure with respect to the 23,924,861 Class A ordinary shares held by EatBetter Holding Limited, which holds Class A ordinary shares allocated for award to our employees under our A&R 2020 Plan. EatBetter Holding Limited is a limited liability company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands. Although Mr. Changlin Liang has sole voting power over the shares held by EatBetter Holding Limited, Mr. Changlin Liang does not have any pecuniary interest in the shares held under the ESOP. Accordingly, Mr. Changlin Liang should not be deemed to have Beneficial Ownership of Securities with respect to such shares, and this Amendment hereby removes such shares from the prior beneficial ownership disclosure.

4. 54,543,800 Class B ordinary shares held by DDL Group Limited. DDL Group Limited is a British Virgin Islands business company limited by shares beneficially owned by Mr. Changlin Liang. DDL Group Limited is ultimately held by LX Family Trust, a trust established under the laws of British Virgin Islands and managed by TMF (Cayman) Ltd., as the trustee. Under the terms of this trust, Mr. Changlin Liang has the power to direct the trustee with respect to the retention or disposal of, and the exercise of any voting and other rights attached to, the shares held by DDL Group Limited in our company.

5. Each Class B ordinary share is convertible into one Class A ordinary share at any time by the holder thereof. Class A ordinary shares are not convertible into Class B ordinary shares under any circumstances. Upon any sale, transfer, assignment or disposition of Class B ordinary shares by a holder thereof to any person other than holders of Class B ordinary shares or their affiliates, such Class B ordinary shares shall be automatically and immediately converted into the same number of Class A ordinary shares.

6. Each Class A ordinary shares is entitled to one vote per share. Each class B ordinary share is entitled to twenty votes per share and is convertible into one Class A ordinary share at any time by the holder.
