When Wen Liang approached, several girls dispersed to the table on the other side and chatted and played by themselves. The woman with sunglasses turned around, pointed to the opposite side, and said, "Sit down!"
Wen Liang thanked him, pulled out a chair and sat down. Before he could say anything, the woman personally poured him a cup of tea and said, "Try it. The tea here is not bad."
Wen Liang leaned forward, lightly touched the purple clay cup with his right hand, and quietly watched the tea slowly fill the cup. Apart from anything else, this calm attitude alone surprised the girls who were secretly paying attention to the situation here.
Whether in Beijing or Suhai, there are not many young people who can sit opposite her like this. Young people who can sit down and sit so steadily and calmly are even rarer. They can be counted on one hand.
Wen Liang picked up the cup and took a sip. He didn't know much about tea, but after knowing Baidu for so long, he at least learned a little bit of the essence. He said, "Is this... Mengding tea?"
The woman chuckled and said to the extremely innocent-looking girl among the six women, "I said he could tell the difference, but you're still not convinced, you lost, right?"
The innocent girl pouted and leaned over from the next table, exuding a charming body fragrance. She asked, "How did you taste it? Isn't it said that Mengding Shihua is very similar to Biluochun, with the same green color and clear soup, and the same mellow and sweet taste? What's more, this is Wujiang County, the hometown of Biluochun..."
Wen Liang looked straight ahead and said, "Miss, you are right. If you don't taste it carefully, Mengding is indeed similar to Biluochun. But Mengding has one thing that Biluochun doesn't have, and that is brightness."
"Bright?"
"Yes, Biluochun is called 'Hidden Green', and its color is a little more emerald green, while Mengding is called 'Lingming', and it will appear transparent and clear. I was 30% sure, and 70% guessed. I made the girl lose the bet, and I feel really sorry!"
"So that's how it is!" The innocent girl took the teapot, opened the lid and looked closely at it. She shook her head and said, "I still can't tell. You are so amazing!"
Wen Liang said, "I dare not. Tea is just for relieving boredom. It can't be called amazing!"
The woman was obviously very fond of the innocent girl and said, "Bai Hu, don't be rude in front of the guests!"
The innocent girl stuck out her tongue, quickly put the teapot back in its place, sat down among the girls, and chattered about something. But looking at their eyes, one could tell that the topic was about Wen Liang.
"This is the Mengding Shihua that I cooked myself. It was picked from the Qingfeng Peak on Mengding Mountain before the Ming Dynasty. How does it taste compared to the Biluochun in Wujiang?"
Thousands of thoughts flashed through Wen Liang's mind, but he said without hesitation: "If Lu Yu were to make a fair judgment, it should be the best tea in the world. The taste of Mengding is naturally better than Biluochun!"
The woman chuckled again and said, "Slippery!"
The innocent girl cried out, grabbed the cold-looking girl beside her, and said gloatingly, "Xueyu, you lost too."
The cold and beautiful woman said nothing, but the other charming girl giggled and said, "Boss, you said he was cunning, but I don't think he is that smart. If Mengding Shihua is better than Biluochun, why did Biluochun take the first place in the selection of the top ten famous teas this time?"
Wen Liang remained calm and said, "Because the members of the selection committee are not as lucky as me to taste the Mengding tea brewed by your boss..."
The charming girl burst into laughter, and covered her mouth with her white and tender jade fingers. Her every move was full of grace and elegance. She said, "Oh, you really have a sharp tongue. No wonder Sister Xuanyu couldn't stop you downstairs!"
The smartly dressed girl sitting opposite the charming girl frowned and said, "Purple Bird!"
The charming girl glanced at her with her watery eyes and said, "I know, Sister Chique, I'll shut up now!"
Red Sparrow, Snow Finch, White Swan, Purple Cockatoo, Black Cockatoo, Wen Liang's fingers hanging by the side of her legs were slightly gathered and relaxed. The red phoenix is a sparrow, the white phoenix is a swan, the purple and black is a cuckoo, and the snow that condenses into frost is a cockatoo. As the names suggest, these girls' names are all a kind of phoenix, scattered in the five directions and guarding the center.
In the center is the Phoenix!
Looking across the southeast, there may be only one woman with such a broad mind!
A gentle look passed through the sunglasses. The woman in sunglasses seemed to understand his thoughts and smiled, "After talking about tea, why don't you tell me why you came upstairs to find me? Do you know who I am?"
"I wasn't sure before I went upstairs, but I should be more confident now."
"Oh, tell me, tell me the right words," the woman paused, glanced at Yao Shang and Xuan Zhui who were still confronting each other downstairs, and said, "I can consider listening to your request!"
"Before I guess your name, let me guess someone else first," Wen Liang smiled at the other two girls whose names he didn't know yet, and said, "If I'm not mistaken, one of them is Qingluan and the other is Huangyan. Am I right?"
The innocent girl clapped and shouted, "That's right, that's right, not a single word is wrong!"
Green Phoenix is Luan, Yellow Phoenix is Yan, this is not a difficult question, it is reasonable for Wen Liang to guess. The woman shook her head, as if treating her own naughty brother, her words and expressions were somewhat doting: "You are really cautious, you guessed when I asked you to, but you have to go and test the mouth of that silly girl, thinking that Bai Hutian is so easy to bully, right?"
The innocent girl said blankly: "I didn't say anything..."
Wen Liang smiled and said, "How could I have the guts to say this in front of President Yan? I was just guessing casually and didn't mean to tease Miss Bai Hu. In fact, after drinking your Mengding Shihua tea, I was almost certain of your identity. Mengding tea is revered as the 'old friend among teas'. If you are not an old friend, you should be an old acquaintance. In the huge Suhai Province, I only know of one old friend like you!"
The woman raised her lips slightly, reached out and took off her sunglasses, and said, "Yes, I am Yan Qixiu!"
Wen Liang still remembers the first time he heard of this person was when Biluochun was in a stalemate. He urgently needed a connection to Wei Qiwen so as to influence him to make a decision that was in the interests of both parties.
Then, from Ning Xi, I learned that there was such a powerful and terrifying existence in Su Hai!
Then, when he first went to Beijing, he met Shangguan Chenlu on the train. In the series of conflicts that followed, Shangguan Chenlu had always seemed to stand on his side intentionally or unintentionally. That was how he learned the name Yan Qixiu from Ning Xi.
Later, he learned that Lei Yu's mother had passed away, Ning Xi had left Beijing sadly, Zhuang Shaoxuan's career was at an end, and Yan Qixiu had gone into seclusion in the south of the Yangtze River. All of these things seemed to be related to the incident five years ago. As for what it was, he didn't have such a strong curiosity, so he still had no clue.
But in Wenliang's heart, he was very curious about Mr. Yan. Until today, he finally got a glimpse of his true face!
What appeared before his eyes was undoubtedly a face that was no less beautiful than any woman he had ever seen, but only if her one eye was not so lifeless and rigid!
With Wenliang's knowledge, of course he knew that it was a fake eye!
Who could have thought that just by using her name, she could make a mere Shangguan Chenlu and all the princelings fear her, and just by her words, she could make a provincial governor make a decision that could affect his political life. Such a woman only has one eye!
Wen Liang did not lower his head, did not look away, and did not hide the surprise on his face. The innocent girl had a good impression of Wen Liang. Ever since Yan Qixiu took off his sunglasses, she had been carefully winking at Wen Liang, fearing that he would show an expression that he shouldn't show and anger the boss. It had been so long that she had almost forgotten what the fate of the last person who angered the boss was, but it was conceivable that the fate must not have been very comfortable.
But I didn't expect Wen Liang to be so impatient. I was just thinking about how to help him when the boss got angry, but Yan Qixiu didn't take it as a problem at all. The smile on his face seemed to show that he was very satisfied with Wen Liang's reaction. He teased, "Why? Young man, you have to know that not every woman is as perfect as Ning Xi..."
Wen Liang said sincerely: "I'm sorry, I don't know..."
Yan Qixiu took a sip of tea and said, "It's been many years. Sometimes I even forget about it, so there's no need to apologize. Seeing the world with one eye is actually no different from seeing it with two eyes. Maybe some things can be seen more clearly!"
Putting down the teacup, the tea in the cup was gone. This time, Wen Liang took the kettle and poured a cup of tea for Yan Qixiu. As the saying goes, a cup of tea should be seven-tenths full, leaving three-tenths of room. He poured it nine-tenths full just to ask for one-tenth of favor, and said, "Boss Yan is right. I appreciate your advice!"
Yan Qixiu watched Wen Liang pour the tea. He did not stop him, but he did not lift the cup either. He smiled and said, "Since you guessed right, I will keep my word. Tell me, what do you want from me?"
"That man is the younger brother of a friend of mine. I hope Mr. Yan will show some mercy and forgive him this time..."
Yan Qixiu leaned back in his chair, with a half-smile on his face, and said, "Yao Shang is also your friend? How close are they?"
The person who handed the report to Wei Qiwen last time was Yao Shang, so it was reasonable for Yan Qixiu to know her. Wen Liang smiled slightly and said, "We are just acquaintances, but we can talk. I know her brother. Although he has bad behavior, he has never done any serious evil. Since Miss Xuanyu has already punished him, I hope President Yan will tell her to let him go to the hospital. If the finger bone is broken for a long time, there may be sequelae!"
"It's just one finger," Yan Qixiu said in a light tone, which made people feel cold for no reason, and said: "With Xuanyu's temper, not crippling his hand is already leaving room for maneuver!"
Wen Liang never expected that this matter could be easily resolved, nor was he fooled by the relaxed atmosphere from the beginning until now, because the more status and position a person has like Yan Qixiu, the less likely it is that the decision he made will be easily changed. He had been looking for an opportunity since he went upstairs, and just now was the best time, but he didn't expect it to still fail!
"But, speaking of which, I still owe you a favor..." (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets on Qidian. Your support is my greatest motivation.) (To be continued)
