Zeng Yaozu was on vacation. Naturally, many things needed to be handled by Xiao Lingyu personally.
“President, Mr. Bruce wants to et you.” The Secretary reported to Xiao Lingyu.
Xiao Lingyu did not react for a mont. “Bruce?” The na sounded like a foreigner.
The secretary said, “Bruce is the president of Country F’s Royal Forest branch in China.”
Xiao Lingyu had heard a lot about Royal Forest.
“Why is he here?” Xiao Lingyu asked. Then, she said, “Invite him in!”
“Yes!” The Secretary replied.
A mont later, the secretary led him in.
“Mr. Bruce, please take a seat!” The secretary asked, “Do you want coffee or tea?”
Bruce said very politely, “Can I have a cup of tea? I heard that your company’s tea is very fragrant!”
Xiao Lingyu loved tea, so Xiao Lingyu added so spring water to the water used in the president’s office to make tea. Therefore, the tea that was brewed was very fragrant and refreshing.
...
The guests would be served the sa tea. Naturally, many people in the industry knew that the tea in Xiao Lingyu’s office was very delicious.
Bruce, of course, was unwilling to let go of this opportunity to taste the tea.
In the past, when he was the president of the Royal Forest’s branch in China, he could be said to have a competitive relationship with Xiao Lingyu. They were sworn enemies.
The two of them simply did not have the chance to sit face to face.
The secretary quickly brewed a pot of tea and brought it over. After pouring a cup of water for Bruce and Xiao Lingyu, she left and gently closed the door.
Bruce slled the fragrance of the tea and quickly picked up the teacup. He closed his eyes and sniffed it with a look of enjoynt. Before he drank it, he exclaid, “This sll is really fragrant!”
Then, he put it into his mouth and took a sip. Then, he drank a cup of tea in one gulp. The fragrance of the tea flowed out of his mouth, and he could not help but enjoy the aftertaste.
Xiao Lingyu looked at Bruce, who was enjoying the tea so much, and was speechless for a mont.
After Bruce finished drinking a cup, he could not wait to pour himself another cup. He didn’t seem to notice the impropriety.
Just as he was about to drink the second cup of tea, Xiao Lingyu imdiately stopped him and said, “Bruce, we Chinese usually drink tea slowly, to savor it carefully.” Xiao Lingyu tried to be polite as she could.
When Bruce heard that, he knew he had been inappropriate. However, he could not be blad. This tea was really too delicious. He fell in love with the tea.
Bruce smiled and said, “I’m sorry, President Xiao. I was too attracted by this tea.”
Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, “Mr. Bruce, real good tea needs to be savored slowly.”
Bruce nodded and said, “Yes, I know that the tea culture in China is extensive and profound. In the future, I will definitely study the tea culture. However, President Xiao, let enjoy another cup of tea with you.”
With that, he finished another cup of tea.
Xiao Lingyu, “...” What else can I say?
Bruce drank cup after cup until the entire teapot was empty. He exclaid, “President Xiao, the tea here is really delicious.”
After saying that, he looked at the empty teapot and asked embarrassedly, “Is there any more?”
Xiao Lingyu smiled and asked her secretary to co in and make another pot of tea for him.
Bruce was overjoyed.
Xiao Lingyu, “...”
She looked at the man bouncing with joy at the prospect of tea.
‘What is this man doing here anyway?’
