Ever since he found out that the two ladies in Hidden Fog Teahouse were Kung Fu masters, Zhang Zian seemed to understand a lot more about the situation.
Wing Chun originated from Shao Lin martial arts. Lady Yan Wingchun made it famous. It focused on skills more than power. It was perfect for girls to practice. Although the two ladies were not as great as Old Time Tea, who was an Elfin, they could easily beat up a few robbers. Maybe they even had some unseen weapons…
”I followed you home because I knew that they would be fine without me,” Old Time Tea smiled. ”When you have a minute, we can go back to the teahouse. Ms. Ye is your senior in Kung Fu.”
Zhang Zian replied seriously, ”Sure. When we have time, I will bring some gifts and visit her.”
As long as Old Time Tea was willing to stay, he was willing to go to the teahouse every day.
Well… going to that teahouse everyday might make him bankrupt. He could afford to go maybe once a month…
Old Time Tea laughed, ”You don't have to… We don't have to go in. As long as we watch them from a distance and know that they are doing well, I am happy.”
Zhang Zian really felt that Old Time Tea deserved every penny he spent in that teahouse.
Old Time Tea was such a sweet cat. It didn't care about fame or benefits. Its personality was so calm and pure. Honestly, it could've left Zhang Zian, gone back to the teahouse and enjoyed the fresh air and tea up in the mountain. Old Time Tea not only stayed for him, but also fought for him and protected him when he was in trouble.
Old Time Tea hadn't betrayed the Ye family. It just took benevolence and righteousness more seriously.
In fact, even if Zhang Zian hadn't mentioned the Hidden Fog Teahouse, Old Time Tea was planning to mention it to him anyways. It wanted him to connect with Ms. Ye so that she could teach him Kungfu after it passed away.
Old Time Tea didn't tell Zhang Zian these thoughts because it was unnecessary.
Being dead or alive was not that important to Old Time Tea anymore. Death was a way it could go see its friends and family. They had been waiting for too long.
”Zian, it is getting late. Let's continue the search,” Old Time Tea said.
Zhang Zian and Old Time Tea left the observatory and walked down the stairs.
Including the observatory, there were 30 stories in the building. The first floor and second floor were opened up as one story. There were a few storage rooms for the cleaning crew, a security guard office and bathrooms. Therefore, he had 27 more floors to go.
29th floor, nothing.
28th floor, nothing.
27th floor, nothing.
…
Zhang Zian walked down one story at a time. Soon, he was familiar with the layout in the building. There were two enormous classrooms on each level, a few small classrooms and a teacher's office.
Some classrooms had classes going on. Some were filled with students doing their homework. Some were blocked for small groups doing activities. Awkwardly, Zhang Zian walked into an orchestral group and got weird stares from students.
The search was a great challenge to Zhang Zian. He started questioning himself, did I miss something?
Besides the floor numbers, every level looked extremely similar. To Zhang Zian, it was like walking in a recorded video, which made the search even more boring.
