Chapter 593: Chapter 594: A Cup of Boiled Water
Su Changfeng showed no signs of hesitation and walked directly towards the arbor.
A very simple set of tea utensils was marked by the passage of ti, and the teacup was full of tea stains, the result of long accumulation.
The tea stains in the old man’s cup were particularly thick, but the tea stains in Chen Weitian’s cup were much thinner, showing a clear difference. Chen Weitian probably hadn’t been visiting this tea shop for long.
At this mont, the tea shop owner handed Su Changfeng a cup, but it wasn’t a new teacup, and the tea stains inside were very thick.
This action made Chen Weitian’s brow furrow even more because when he first ca to the tea shop, the old man had given him a brand new cup. However, this young man in front of him was using an old cup full of tea stains.
Su Changfeng also found this a bit strange. Although he wasn’t well-versed in tea culture, he knew such a cup should have a specific owner.
Especially for those obsessed with tea culture, these people rarely clean their cups, intentionally leaving the tea stains. This way, even if plain water is poured in, it still has the taste of tea. In their eyes, cups like these are unmatched by anything else.
"Sir, this..." Su Changfeng asked in confusion.
The old man smiled slightly and didn’t explain the reason. He poured a cup of tea for Su Changfeng and said, "Try it."
Su Changfeng felt a sense of aura from the old man, an aura that was transcendent. Especially the way he moved while pouring the tea, those actions weren’t sothing an ordinary person could achieve.
Could there be so reclusive expert hiding in this small tea shop?
That makes sense!
If not, why would Chen Weitian co here?
Su Changfeng picked up the cup and took a slight sip. The bitterness imdiately filled his mouth, akin to drinking brewed herbal dicine.
"Sir, what kind of tea is this? Why is it so bitter?" Su Changfeng’s face twisted as he spoke.
The old man smiled calmly and said, "It’s just plain water."
"I’m not a three-year-old child; regular water wouldn’t be like that, sir. Please don’t joke with ," Su Changfeng said, clearly not believing the old man’s words. The bitter taste shot up to his mind, making him feel lightheaded.
The old man picked up a teapot again and took out a glass cup. After pouring water into it, indeed it was just plain water.
"The bitterness is from the teacup. I thought you might like its taste," the old man said.
Su Changfeng was dumbfounded. It really was just plain water, aning that the bitterness he had tasted earlier ca entirely from the tea stains in the cup. This made it unimaginable for Su Changfeng what kind of tea the previous owner of the cup drank, that rely the taste from the tea stains made him question life after just one sip.
At this mont, the old man suddenly stood up, took the cup that Su Changfeng had just used, and said to the pair, "You two probably have sothing to talk about. I’ll go take a rest for a while."
The old man, with a hunched back, walked very slowly. After entering the room, he suddenly straightened his back, smiled as he looked at the teacup in his hand, and murmured, "Old friend, this young man doesn’t seem to like this kind of taste. I’ve waited in Jiang City for ten years, just wanting to see what this young man is capable of, but until now, I’ve seen nothing."
After the old man left, the aura around Chen Weitian underwent a complete change, as if this was his ho ground. The atmosphere also beca more powerful, without the slightest restraint, as if deliberately suppressing Su Changfeng.
In this situation, Su Changfeng smiled nonchalantly. He had already seen many people with an extrely strong presence, and the actions that Chen Weitian took seed like child’s play to him.
"Are you Su Changfeng?" Chen Weitian asked.
"Yes," Su Changfeng replied.
Chen Weitian sneered, "I didn’t expect you’d have the courage to et . Do you intend to convince
to work for you?"
"From the looks of it, I haven’t caught your interest at all," Su Changfeng said calmly.
Chen Weitian nodded and said straightforwardly, "You seem to have recognized your own strength. My advice to you is to leave Jiang City. With your current abilities, going against the Ye Group will end terribly."
"What Ye Qingcheng can give you, I can give you too, and even more. Won’t you reconsider?" Su Changfeng said.
Chen Weitian picked up a cup of tea and smiled at Su Changfeng, saying, "It seems you don’t fully understand yourself. What I want isn’t just money; what the Ye Group can help
with is beyond imagination."
"Status?" Su Changfeng raised his eyebrow and asked.
Chen Weitian laughed but didn’t speak. In the eyes of soone like him, although money is important, status is what Chen Weitian values more.
With the strength of the Ye Group, it could help him achieve an even higher position sooner or later. To Chen Weitian, apart from Ye Qingcheng, no one else could accomplish that. Thus, his loyalty to Ye Qingcheng was exceptionally high.
"You have no chance left. If it were , I’d just settle down as a dostic son-in-law and rely on a woman for the rest of my life. That would still be a good thing," Chen Weitian said.
"Do you know the origin of the Ye Group?" Su Changfeng asked.
"Does it matter? Where the Ye Group cos from doesn’t concern . As long as Su Changfeng can help
gain status, that’s all that counts," Chen Weitian said.
Su Changfeng smiled. Even though he wasn’t sure what Su Changfeng promised Chen Weitian, he knew those words were only for Chen Weitian’s ears. There was no way the M Country Ye Family would shift their focus to the dostic market.
And Ye Qingcheng coming to Jiang City was rely to deal with him. After everything is settled, Ye Qingcheng would return to the Chinese Town of M Country. At that ti, Ye Qingcheng wouldn’t care about Chen Weitian’s status, and might even drag him down before leaving.
"It definitely matters. Whether you can live well in the future is closely related to this. Accepting the money from Ye Group is undoubtedly like holding a ti bomb. As long as Ye Qingcheng wants, it can explode at any ti," Su Changfeng said.
Chen Weitian frowned and shouted at Su Changfeng, "Don’t speak without evidence. Don’t defa
here, or I’ll have soone lock you up."
"With your current position, arresting
would only take a word, but have you considered that the Ye Group might ultimately abandon you?" Su Changfeng said.
