Chapter 443: Chapter 0444: Helping You Invest
Lin and Honda Sakura chatted briefly before hanging up the phone, as he saw through the binoculars that someone had picked up the teapot.
Inside the private room.
Shen Yaoyao, having eaten her fill, reached out to grab the teapot from Huo Tianqian and poured herself a cup of tea, gulping it down noisily.
Chu Ge looked at her with a disdainful expression, as if Shen Yaoyao was drinking her tea like plain boiled water, not knowing at all how to appreciate and savor it.
Sensing Chu Ge’s gaze, Shen Yaoyao put down her teacup and glared at him, "I know I’m beautiful, but you don’t need to stare at me so intently."
Or should we say that Shen Yaoyao has thick skin? Chu Ge shook his head speechlessly, "You’re not supposed to drink tea like that. It’s still okay when it’s just us here, but if there were outsiders present, you’d surely be ridiculed again. Aren’t you the one who cares most about the Xiao Shen Family’s reputation?"
Chu Ge was bringing up the recent fight between Shen Yaoyao and Shen Mimi.
Shen Yaoyao was speechless, regretting her previous words! This damned Chu Ge, always looking to set her up and bully her!
As if to spite Chu Ge, Shen Yaoyao poured herself another cup of tea and this time, she directly downed the entire cup in one gulp.
After finishing, Shen Yaoyao frowned slightly. She didn’t speak but carefully savored the taste of the tea.
"This restaurant’s tea should be Bamboo Leaf Green Tea, right?" Shen Yaoyao said doubtfully. Generally, the tea used in not-so-high-end restaurants is Bamboo Leaf Green Tea, and although she wasn’t very knowledgeable about tea, she could still discern its taste.
Shen Yaoyao poured herself another cup, but this time, instead of drinking it, she gently swirled the cup, gazing into it, lost in thought.
Seeing this, Chu Ge teased her: "You can actually taste that it’s Bamboo Leaf Green Tea? That’s rare. Don’t tell me you’re about to say there’s something wrong with this tea?"
As he finished speaking, Chu Ge’s right eyelid twitched violently.
Annoyed, Shen Yaoyao gave him a glare, then poured a cup of tea for Chu Ge and tilted her chin, gesturing for him to drink as well, "I really think there’s something off about this tea. Try it and see if you don’t believe me!"
Beside them, Shen Congwen smiled and explained, "Miss Shen being unaware, as she always is in Shanghai, this isn’t your ordinary Bamboo Leaf Green Tea. It has been irrigated and soaked with Snow Mountain Spring Water. The reason the taste is different from what you’ve had before is that the Snow Mountain Spring Water has activated all the nutrients and components within the Bamboo Leaf Green Tea."
That’s why the taste is slightly different.
Huo Tianqian was surprised, "Does Snow Mountain Spring Water really have that effect?"
Shen Congwen nodded, "Snow Mountain Spring Water contains a rich variety of minerals and other rare components. Even if you were to just drink the spring water directly, you would feel a warm current slowly flowing through your body, a truly rare and wonderful thing. Anything soaked in it will exhibit its true value, which is why I use it to irrigate the Earth Ganoderma."
Huo Tianqian nodded. Although he was not very familiar with tea, he became curious after hearing Shen Congwen’s explanation.
He took the teapot and poured himself a cup, then tasted it carefully.
"Hmm... it’s indeed different from the Bamboo Leaf Green Tea I’ve had before."
While continuing to savor it carefully, Huo Tianqian nodded in agreement.
A discussion on tea commenced in the private room, while on the other side, Lin couldn’t help but feel anxious.
He didn’t know if it was because of a guilty conscience, but seeing Chu Ge not drinking his tea for a long while, he couldn’t shake the feeling that Chu Ge might have already discovered the poison he had put in the tea.
However, he found some comfort in the fact that he had just seen Huo Tianqian gulp down the tea. He had heard from Honda Sakura that Huo Tianqian was now Chu Ge’s right-hand man. Even though he was only at Postnatal Perfection, being an Ancient Martial Artist, he couldn’t escape the Sealing of the drug.
After a while, once Chu Ge also drank the tea, the two of them would be no different from ordinary people. He wanted to see how they would dare to swagger around in Su City after that.
Lost in his thoughts, Lin let out a satisfied chuckle.
Realizing he had lost composure, he abruptly came to his senses and covered his mouth. Although he was alone in the room, he still dared not make too much noise.
Lin picked up a bottle of mineral water next to him, unscrewed the cap, took a sip, and then continued to watch through the binoculars from across the way.
Chu Ge always felt like he was being watched. At first, he thought it was the Japanese from earlier, but he had just used his Spiritual Power to sense around and there were no Ancient Martial Artists within ten miles.
His right eyelid kept twitching. Chu Ge raised his hand to gently rub it. He could use his True Qi to expel alcohol from his body when he drank, or toxins when he caught a cold, but for this kind of reflexive reaction, he really did not know how to handle it.
Huo Tianqian noticed that Chu Ge was acting unusually and asked with concern, "Mr. Chu, are you really okay?"
Chu Ge shook his head, "I’m fine, it’s just my right eyelid keeps twitching."
Shen Yaoyao burst out laughing, "Left eyelid twitching means fortune, right eyelid twitching means disaster, Chu Ge you’re doomed! You’re about to encounter a bloody disaster!"
Upon hearing this, Huo Tianqian spat several times, looking at Shen Yaoyao with some resentful eyes, "Miss Shen, you shouldn’t speak carelessly like that."
He sneakily glanced at Chu Ge’s expression, and seeing that he was not angry with Shen Yaoyao’s words, he became somewhat curious about the relationship between Shen Yaoyao and Chu Ge.
Shen Yaoyao pursed her lips, "What’s wrong with saying that? I’m telling you Chu Ge has a tough fate; even if something happens, it’s him causing trouble for others. Who could bother him?"
Huo Tianqian chuckled out loud, what Shen Yaoyao said was true, Mr. Chu’s abilities could only cause trouble for others. If anyone wanted to trouble him? Impossible!
Chu Ge ignored the conversation between Shen Yaoyao and Huo Tianqian, instead, he raised his eyes unwittingly scanning outside the window, he trusted his intuition, he felt that someone was continuously watching them around here.
As for who was being watched, that would need further investigation.
"Mr. Chu, please have some more dishes." Seeing that everyone had stopped eating, Shen Congwen quickly invited, "Miss Shen, please eat more too, order whatever else you’d like."
Shen Congwen had noticed the unusual relationship between Shen Yaoyao and Chu Ge, perhaps due to a fondness for one leading to kindness to the other, he was very friendly towards Shen Yaoyao, "I heard recently the Xiao Shen Family company encountered some issues, urgently needing a loan, is that right?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Yaoyao looked up at him, knowing these affairs were not a secret among these people, so she didn’t hide it. She nodded and then said, "There are some minor issues, but I’m not sure about the specifics."
It was precisely because the company had major leaks that they were trying every means to obtain investment and loans from Shanghai.
And for this reason, the Xiao Shen Family set their sights on Zhao Wuji.
"Miss Shen, when your father has time, he could visit my company, I’m willing to invest in you."
