Chapter 404: Got the Wrong Person?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Actually, the reason why I like West Lake Longjing tea is because of Uncle Zhai’s heavy influence. I am sorry. I shouldn’t be telling you all this. You must feel very bored. Uncle Zhai is just like this. When he likes someone, he can have a lot of topics to chat about with that person. Of course, both of them need to have common hobbies and knowledge to be able to engage in a conversation. There is nothing much for Uncle Zhai to chat about with someone who does not understand Chinese tea and has never had good tea before.”
Qiao Nan smoothed her hair. It seemed like Qiu Chenxi was very hostile to her. She might have heard of something for her to behave in such a manner. “Miss Qiu, what you said sounds really familiar. When Auntie Miao first came to my house, she also complained that I did not have any good tea to serve her. However, from then onward, she would always drink the water that I poured for her. She is, after all, the wife of the chief. Although she is stern, she is very considerate of others and never makes it difficult for others.”
Qiu Chenxi turned green in anger at the mention of Miao Jing.
Sure enough, on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, Miao Jing indeed brought Zhai Sheng to Qiao Nan’s place, didn’t she?
The Zhai family and the Qiao family did not know each other at all, so why would Miao Jing visit them on that day? What did she mean by that? Why the sudden change of att.i.tude?
Miao Jing used to like her very much and would always call her affectionately. In the blink of an eye, she had a total change of att.i.tude toward her. Until now, Qiu Chenxi still could not understand what caused the change in Miao Jing.
It was fine if Miao Jing did not like her, but why the sudden interest in Qiao Nan?
She did not believe that Miao Jing would take a fancy to Qiao Nan.
“By the way, Miss Qiu, let me give you a gentle reminder. Tea has a natural color and is good to drink occasionally. However, if you drink a lot of tea every day… You should know that as Asians, our complexions are yellow. Too much tea will make our skin …”
Qiao Nan stared at Qiu Chenxi’s face that was white from the layers of powder and sighed, shaking her head.
She was curious about how Qiu Chenxi would look without makeup.
“You…” Qiu Chen pulled a long face. “Are you implying that my face is dark?”
“Do you think your face is fair enough?” Qiao Nan smiled. “Miss Qiu, it’s early in the weekend morning. Is anything the matter?”
“Let me ask you. What is your relations.h.i.+p with Brother Zhai?”
Qiao Nan’s finger knocked on the table and looked at Qiu Chenxi curiously. “In what capacity are you asking this question, and why do you think I will answer you?”
Qiao Nan was not sure what Qiu Chenxi had heard about her and Brother Zhai. As far as the current situation was concerned, it was impossible for Chief Zhai and Auntie Miao to accept her. Besides, she was still in high school. It was not suitable for her to expose her relations.h.i.+p with Brother Zhai.
She could not give a direct answer and she could not say no as well. Thus, she could only evade her question.
“I am Brother Zhai’s fiancée!” Qiu Chenxi gritted her teeth. When she first saw this little girl more than a year ago, she felt particularly uncomfortable. In the end, after spending so much effort, not only had she failed to get Lin Yuankang to be her master, but she was also robbed of the chance by this young lady who came out of nowhere.
