455: Chapter 455: [Tea Tasting Master] 455: Chapter 455: [Tea Tasting Master] “Auntie, since it’s my first visit, I can’t arrive empty-handed.
I’ll make a trip to the supermarket first!” Ye Chenfeng was looking for a chance to escape.
How was he going to handle the situation at Lu Wanqing’s house?
But Mother Lu glared at him, “No need, our family lacks nothing.
You just follow me and that’ll be fine!”
“That won’t do, Auntie.
It’s against proper etiquette, and I wouldn’t feel right about it!” Ye Chenfeng was very determined.
Seeing that Ye Chenfeng was insistent on going, Mother Lu gave in, “Fine, you can go, but if you run off, I guarantee you’ll never get to see my daughter again!”
Mother Lu thought Ye Chenfeng genuinely had a relationship with Lu Wanqing and believed that with this threat, she could be sure he would comply with her from then on.
In reality, Ye Chenfeng just wanted to take off.
“Alright, Auntie!
Just wait a moment!
I’ll be right back!” After getting the green light, Ye Chenfeng’s face was bursting with glee.
“Stop right there!”
Just as Ye Chenfeng was about to leave excitedly, Lu Wanqing blocked him.
“What’s up, Little Wanqing?” Ye Chenfeng asked curiously.
Lu Wanqing stared at him with a threatening tone, “Ye Chenfeng, I know you want to flee, but if you want to act, you’ve got to play the part.
If you run away, forget about getting your maid outfit!”
For the sake of the maid outfit, all in!
Ye Chenfeng hesitated for a while but eventually nodded, “Alright, I’ll play along till the end!
But you’ve got to fork out the money for the gift!”
“You…”
Lu Wanqing was literally about to spit blood, how could there be such a stingy and shameless man.
In the end, Lu Wanqing gritted her teeth and handed Ye Chenfeng a stack of hundred-yuan notes.
“Use the rest to buy your own formula milk!” Lu Wanqing said irritably.
Unexpectedly, Ye Chenfeng stared at her ample bosom and snickered, “Actually, ****, I prefer to drink it all-natural.”
“You shameless!” Lu Wanqing trembled with rage.
“Oh, I forgot to tell you, yours are quite elastic.
Your future child will have plenty of milk!”
Even though Ye Chenfeng had walked away, his voice still floated back from afar.
Lu Wanqing stumbled, almost falling to the ground.
Why on earth had she encountered Ye Chenfeng?
Having previously mentioned going to the supermarket, there was no escaping it now.
The supermarket was quite large, with a complete range of products and plenty of high-end items.
After all, it catered to the millionaires living in the area.
What to buy?
Right, wasn’t Lu Wanqing’s father coming back?
People from the upper echelons surely enjoyed tea tasting or something.
Just get some tea leaves, that should do.
“How’s the tea here, boss?” asked Ye Chenfeng, looking at the assortment of loose tea leaves before him.
The shopkeeper smiled, “Absolutely top-quality!
You get what you pay for.
The tea I stock is all good stuff, so naturally, it’s expensive!”
Ye Chenfeng casually grabbed a handful and started to examine it closely.
Perhaps it was Ye Chenfeng’s loud voice that had attracted two other people over.
One of them, around forty or fifty, had a square, strongfeatured face, yet wore a pair of refined glasses.
The occasional sharp glints beneath the gold-rimmed glasses were impossible to ignore.
He carried an air of superiority and a commanding presence that radiated an aura of authority without anger.
Feng Lang was as striking as jade, with sword-like eyebrows and star-like eyes, a tall and upright stature, walking with an air of bold decisiveness that made one inevitably think the man was very decisive.
Upon a closer look, one would find that this handsome middle-aged man was indeed breathtakingly attractive, with a fair complexion, a head of clean, ink-black short hair, and a pair of phoenix eyes that could easily draw people in.
The most important thing was his mature temperament, which many young girls in the throes of spring could hardly resist.
As Ye Chenfeng was appraising tea leaves, the middle-aged man spoke, “Young brother, by the looks of it, you are also a tea connoisseur, aren’t you?”
Without lifting his head, Ye Chenfeng replied, “Speaking of appraising tea, I am second to none – nobody dares to claim they’re first!”
“Oh?” The middle-aged man’s eyes sparkled with interest, “Really?
So, what kind of tea do you usually drink?”
Only then did Ye Chenfeng raise his head, “Speaking of what tea I’ve drunk?
The list is as vast as the sea.”
The middle-aged man’s breathing quickened, and he couldn’t help but prick up his ears.
“Master Kong’s Iced Green Tea, Iced Red Tea, Jasmine Honey Tea, Jasmine Green Tea, and so on – there are too many to count.
I am absolutely a tea appraisal master!”
Everyone: “…”
Especially the middle-aged man, whose forehead was suddenly lined with countless black streaks.
He had thought Ye Chenfeng was truly a tea appraisal master, but who would have guessed he was just some blabbering, pretentious guy?
What annoyed the middle-aged man the most was young people who were frivolous and pretended to know what they didn’t.
He detested it, truly detested it.
“It’s alright for young people to be humorous,” the middle-aged man said coldly, his face darkening, “but don’t overdo it.
And don’t pretend to know what you don’t – that’s very off-putting!”
He had initially had a very good impression of Ye Chenfeng, but now it was all gone, and in his heart, the middle-aged man had classified Ye Chenfeng as nothing more than a loafer and a playboy.
Ye Chenfeng was puzzled – how was he pretending to know what he didn’t when all those he mentioned were indeed teas?
“Hey, who are you calling old?
It was you who shamelessly came over to talk to me, okay?
What do you mean ‘pretending to know what you don’t’?
Let me ask you, aren’t those things I named teas?” Ye Chenfeng was also getting angry, having been inexplicably lectured by a stranger.
“You are simply unreasonable and impolite!
Young people these days are just too lacking,” the middle-aged man grumbled angrily.
“You’re not any better; you’re sick in the head!” Ye Chenfeng retorted.
“You…”
A man in his thirties behind the middle-aged man looked like he was about to rush up to confront Ye Chenfeng but was stopped by the middle-aged man, “No need, let’s go!”
The middle-aged man then left in a huff, while the man next to him threw a fierce glare at Ye Chenfeng.
“Crazy!” Ye Chenfeng called out, watching the two men’s retreating figures, and cursed again.
“Young man, do you really know about tea?” The shop owner’s eyes clearly harbored a trace of disdain.
Ye Chenfeng chuckled, lifting the tea leaves he held, “Take this green tea, for example, the leaves are tight, straight, uniform, and heavy.
The buds are abundant, and the leaves are tender, indicating good tenderness.
The color is a fresh green, with no stems or impurities in the leaves.
Plus, the aroma is also just right, with no mixed smells.
This tea leaf is superior indeed!”
Upon hearing Ye Chenfeng’s description, the shop owner’s jaw dropped wide enough to fit an egg.
He really knew his tea and wasn’t at all like what he had just portrayed.
If the middle-aged man were here, he’d definitely be taken aback.
“Alright, give me a pound of this tea, and remember to pack it well!” Ye Chenfeng said.
“No problem, sir!”
Soon, the supermarket owner had packed up the tea leaves for Ye Chenfeng and bought some items for Mother Lu.
Only then did Ye Chenfeng leave.
Having been to Lu Wanqing’s villa before, Ye Chenfeng easily found his way back.
He also noticed an additional Mercedes parked in front of the villa – it wasn’t there before.
