Chapter Ninety-Two: Good Tea and Good People
"The piano version of Don't Cry is kind of interesting. The manager leaned against the wall and crossed his arms over the wall and looked at the young man who was dressed inappropriately for the restaurant.
The soft sound, combined with the melodious music, forms a music that goes straight to the heart. Many diners in the restaurant stopped and listened quietly.
With his eyelids drooping, Lee Jae-cheol's ten fingers dance lightly on the keys, pouring all the emotions into the song. Li Yunxin, who was sitting at the dining table, looked at him with her eyes, and there was nothing else.
Pressing the last syllable, Lee Jae-chul got up and walked towards her.
"Promise me not to cry again. He held Lee Yoon-xin's face.
Trying to hold back her tears, she smiled brightly, "Inside." After speaking, he felt that something was wrong, and quickly changed his words: "Look at your performance, if you bully me, you will cry immediately." β
"Hmm. Lee Jae-cheol bowed.
It took a long time for the music to stop before people reacted and cast a kind look at the young man.
Moments later, the waiter served an aperitif, a bottle of Moet & Chandon rosΓ© champagne, and two servings of smoked salmon as an appetizer.
"Champagne, do you still drink?" Lee Jae-chul raised an eyebrow.
"Heck, it's all like that. She stuck out her tongue and took a small sip.
"Don't be a drunkard, you know. β
"Peace of mind. At the end, Li Yunxin muttered in a low voice: "It's quite delicious......"
"What?"
"This salmon is good. β
The most tedious French meal can last as little as two hours and as long as four hours. It was almost eleven o'clock in the evening, Li Yunxin ate the last spoonful of ice cream, and the corners of her mouth were hooked with satisfaction.
"Do you still drink coffee?" asked Lee Jae-chul.
She shook her head, "I don't like coffee." β
"Let's go back to the hotel. β
"Hmm. β
He summoned the waiter and prepared to settle the bill.
"Hehe, you can't grab it now. Li Yunxin looked proud, "I left my credit card in advance." β
"It doesn't have to be so clear. Lee Jae-chul was helpless.
"yes. She blinked, "You don't have to tell too clearly. β
ββ¦β¦β
The waiter bowed down and said, "Two, the manager has explained that I will give you a free order." β
"Manager?" said Lee.
"It's over there. The waiter gestured to the door of the food room not far away, and his eyes shifted.
Seeing him come over, the middle-aged man nodded and smiled, and Lee Jae-chul returned the salute.
On the way back, Li Yunxin asked curiously: "Do you know him?"
"First meeting. β
"But why did he ......?"
After thinking about it, Lee Jae-chul replied, "Maybe, conquered by my singing?"
"Narcissism. She giggled.
"Doesn't it sound good?" the man rubbed her cheek.
"It's good, Wuli sings the best in Zhe. Li Yunxin pressed his hand.
β¦β¦
After a few more days, they toured New York roughly, and a few days before her official enrollment, the two left for the campus dormitory.
Two-person dormitories are large for comfort and privacy, and a modest common living room for bonding.
Li Yunxin's roommate is a white girl with a few freckles on her face, and she smiles and shows a mouthful of white teeth.
"Hello, I'm Olivia. β
"Hello, my name is Li Yunxin. β
"He's your boyfriend?" Olivia pointed at Lee Jae-chul.
"Well, he's ......" she hesitated, always feeling a little strange about her boyfriend or brother. Even though it has become an established fact, after all, the two have been sisters and brothers for more than ten years, and they have not gotten used to it for a while.
"I used to be a younger brother, and now I'm a boyfriend. Lee Jae-chul said with a smile.
"Uh, what is this?" Olivia looked them up and down with a strange expression.
"Not what you think. Li Yunxin hurriedly explained, "He is the adopted son of my family and has no blood relationship." β
"Oh, it's just a childhood sweetheart, right!" she suddenly realized.
"Yes, almost. β
"I'm so envious, I also want to have such a handsome childhood sweetheart. Olivia said, "When I grow up, I fall in love, and it feels so romantic." β
"Are you Chinese?" she asked again.
"Koreans. β
β¦β¦
"Remember to eat and rest on time, and change your clothes when it's cold. Lee Jae-chul told her.
"You know, I'm not stupid. β
"You're really not stupid, just like a child, not very self-reliant. β
"I'm you Nuna. Li Yunxin wrinkled her nose and said, "Zai Zhe, is it okay for me to go to your company in the future." β
"Why, go to my company?" he wondered.
"Yes, I can help you manage the company, and I will be a professional when the time comes. Her eyes rolled slightly, and she gave a reason.
Lee Jae-chul stared at her.
"What are you looking at......" Li Yunxin's eyes dodged.
Hooking the corners of his mouth, the man stroked the top of her head, "Go if you want." β
"Inside. β
Olivia leaned on the couch and looked at the two of them with interest.
"Lady Olivia, this is the first time she's been away from home, and I've bothered you to take care of her a little on weekdays. Lee Jae-cheol said.
"Don't worry. She patted her chest, "I'll take care of her." β
"Thank you. After speaking, he said to Li Yunxin again: "Remember that number." β
"Well, it's in the address book. β
"Then I'm leaving. β
"Wait ......," she reached out and grabbed the corner of the man's clothes, bowing her head and saying nothing.
Lee Jae-chul turned his head, and for a moment, leaned over to choke her pink lips.
"Tsk, tsk. Olivia smacked her lips.
"Remember to inform me when you will be back. β
Touching her wet lips, Li Yunxin blushed and nodded.
When he left, Olivia sighed, "You guys have a good relationship. β
"After all, it didn't come easily. She replied softly.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
Chinatown, Red Gang Lobby.
"Here's a picture of her, and her class. Lee Jae-chul handed out a paper bag, and Ah Quan borrowed it.
"You're a little bit attached to this sister. Yang Qingcheng said while drinking tea.
"It's not my sister now, it's my girlfriend. β
"......" swallowed the tea, Yang Qingcheng's expression was strange, "People are rabbits who don't eat the grass by the nest, you ......"
"I'm lazy, it's too much trouble to go out foraging. β
"In this way, the female star in your company is a bit dangerous. Yang Qingcheng quipped.
"Who knows. β
"Haha, it's okay, people don't be romantic. He laughed loudly, "I think back then, I wasn't much different from you." β
Hearing this, Lee Jae-chul asked, "What happened?"
"What else, but forget about it. Yang Qingcheng said lightly, "I went away from home, and they married women." β
"In the end, most of what people like us want is to marry a wife and have children, so that they can live a more stable life. But this kind of life, which is ordinary for others, is too difficult for us. His expression was calm, as if he were saying something that had nothing to do with him.
Seeing that he was silent, Yang Qingcheng said with a smile: "Don't care, it's just my situation, you are different, and you are still bathed in the sun." β
Without continuing the topic, Lee Jae-cheol said, "Last time I tasted your tea, it seemed that there was something else. β
"That's medicinal tea, and a famous old tea master in China helped to fry it. He fiddled with the teacup, shook his head, and said, "You kid is a good mouth." β
"It has nothing to do with the mouth, it's just that the body warms up after drinking. β
"There's a lot of good stuff out there, and it's effective. Yang Qingcheng said, "The stubborn diseases accumulated earlier, you can live for a few more years if you drink more." β
"Well, I wanted to ask for some, but now I can't. Lee Jae-chul lamented.
"Do you like tea?"
"Tea is much better than coffee. He said of course, "Now not only Chinese people, but even European and American countries have begun to drink tea, and everyone wants things that prolong life, after all, they will not live long." β
"I have a lot of this tea, it's okay to give you a few catties. Yang Qingcheng said heartily.
"Thank you. After speaking, Lee Jae-chul said tentatively: "Can you drink it again?"
The expressions of the master and servant froze. A few seconds later, Yang Qingcheng stroked his palm and smiled: "As long as I'm not dead, you will have tea to drink." β
"That's fine. His face was full of joy, and then he asked Ah Quan, "How are they preparing?"
"Departure in the afternoon. β
"In that case, I'm one step ahead. Li Zaizhe got up and walked to the door, stepped out of the threshold, and turned back and said, "Just let Zhao Pu and them carry the tea." β
"I won't ignore your tea. "Yang Qingcheng didn't have a good airway.
"Farewell. β
Looking at his back, Ah Quan smiled: "Nice boy." β
"Indeed, good. β
If he was originally just optimistic about Lee Jae-cheol, now it has become a favorite, and the elders love the younger generations.
What asked for tea, it was nothing more than to let him eliminate some worries. Yang Qingcheng could see it clearly.
