"Mister Sha, you're here." At this moment, a beautiful servant girl walked out of the courtyard.
Sha Ruijing nodded at the servant girl and smiled amiably. "Yes, I'm here."
"The hall has been prepared for you. Please come to the west wing." The servant girl turned around and led them to the west wing's hall.
Chen He's gaze swept over the maidservant with interest. The maidservant's body smelled very good, and there was a hint of elegance about her. However … this did not seem to be the feminine scent in the air. They should not be the same person.
The west wing's private room had already been lit with red sandalwood incense. The lingering fragrance of red sandalwood slowly floated in the air, causing people to unconsciously calm down and focus.
Chen He didn't stand on ceremony and sat down cross-legged.
In front of them was an ancient-style tea set.
"Manager Sha, this place of yours is pretty good. I didn't expect you to know how to enjoy yourself." Chen He lit a cigarette and said inexplicably.
Sha Ruijing smiled amiably. "Simple clothes, simple food, and occasionally drinking plain tea. This is the only hobby I have."
"How do I make this tea? There's no boiling water. "Chen He had a cigarette in his mouth and was about to pick up the tea set without any scruples.
"Mister Chen, there's no need to do anything. A tea master will come," Sha Ruijing said slowly.
Just at this moment, the sound of soft and gentle footsteps could be heard from outside the private room …
In the air, an elegant and pleasant fragrance slowly floated over. Chen He sniffed a few times. That's right … it's this fragrance! Only this fragrance is worthy of it.
The soft footsteps got closer and closer … A beautiful figure slowly appeared on the paper window sill of the private room … The figure was slowly walking towards the door of the private room.
In the blink of an eye, a woman as beautiful as a painting slowly appeared in front of the door of the private room.
Her black waterfall-like hair fell softly on her shoulders. Her eyebrows were like an oriole, and her eyes were like pearls. It was a beauty that couldn't be described with words! Along with her appearance, the entire air seemed to become still in that instant, becoming gentle and warm!
She was wearing a long black dress, but her beautiful and exquisite body could not be concealed at all. The long dress outlined her beautiful curves.
Chen He was so stunned that the cigarette in his mouth fell to the ground.
The woman in front of him was extremely beautiful! He swore that in Hua Xia, this was the only woman with such a classical and elegant temperament!
If Li Peijiu had the temperament of a goddess, and Qin Prajna was mysterious … then the woman in front of him was exuding the aura of a classical Hua Xia princess, making people reluctant to leave and even forget to return. It was an aura that was completely different from that of other women.
When she saw this woman, Sha Ruijing was stunned at first, then she immediately stood up and said respectfully, "Miss Ren, why are you here?"
The beautiful woman smiled faintly, like a blooming orchid. Her gaze swept across Chen He for a moment, then returned to Sha Ruijing.
She said softly, "Since a friend has come from afar, I naturally have to personally receive him. Today, this little girl will brew tea for everyone and enjoy the rain."
Hearing this, Sha Ruijing instantly felt a little embarrassed. "Then … how can I do that? Miss Ren, you're the dignified Lady Boss. Personally brewing tea for us … I'm afraid that's not very good, right? "
Although Sha Ruijing was the city's purser, she did not put on any airs. Even in this small tea room, she maintained basic respect and etiquette.
Chen He slowly picked up the cigarette from the ground. Just as he was about to continue smoking … he was suddenly stopped by the woman.
"Sir, please, can you put out the cigarette? If there's any impurities in it, I'm afraid the tea will become muddy, "the woman said apologetically.
When Chen He heard this, he did not say anything else and directly put out the cigarette.
The woman gently bowed and smiled faintly. "Thank you for your understanding, Sir."
The beautiful woman gently picked up the hem of her long dress, then slowly walked to the tea set.
She gently bowed and slowly opened the purple clay teapot and tea set. Following her movements, her long, soft, black hair also casually draped over her shoulders. A faint orchid-like fragrance instantly floated in the air.
Chen He could not help but take a few deep breaths. This fragrance made one's imagination run wild, as if he was intoxicated.
After boiling the water and picking the tea leaves, the absolute beauty stood at the side and gently brewed the tea for them.
Her attainments in the Way of Tea were very high. At this moment, the tea leaves had not yet been boiled, but the rich and elegant tea fragrance had already been softly scattered in the air.
Sha Ruijing calmly sat cross-legged in front of the tea table and amiably introduced, "Mr. Chen, this … is the owner of Nine Rooms Hall, the Lady Boss of this tea room, Miss Ren."
The beautiful woman gently raised her beautiful eyes and smiled faintly at Chen He. Her beauty was enough to cause the downfall of a city.
"Miss Ren, this is my guest, Mr. Chen." Sha Ruijing briefly introduced the two of them to each other.
Chen He looked at this Miss Ren with interest. She was extremely skilled in brewing tea. Even the action of boiling water was so beautiful and alluring, as if everything was a performance of art.
"Miss, did you write the words' Nine Rooms Hall 'on the signboard at the entrance?" Chen He asked with interest.
Miss Ren's slender lily-white hands paused. She lightly pursed her red lips and nodded in acknowledgment, "Mr. Chen has good eyesight."
"I did not expect Miss Ren to be able to produce such good calligraphy at such a young age. It is truly rare." Chen He gave a profound smile, a trace of admiration in his eyes, "I wonder if I have the honor of knowing Miss's name?"
Chen He was originally filled with elegance, but in the blink of an eye, he suddenly changed his tone and became a yuppie. Directly asking for the lady's name … In this kind of situation, suddenly asking for a lady's name was a little rude.
Even Sha Ruijing, who was sitting at the side, was a little startled. She did not expect Chen He to be so talkative.
However, Miss Ren's expression remained unchanged. Her beautiful and exquisite face was as calm as a lily in the quiet.
"If Mr. Chen can decipher the elegance of the three words' Nine Rooms Hall, 'then I will tell you my name," she said in a soft and magnetic voice.
Hearing this, Chen He could not help but be slightly stunned. His eyes turned around, revealing a trace of profoundness.
"Smoke and dust cover the Nine Gates Watchtower, and no one knows me in my boudoir … Miss Ren, if I'm not wrong, the name of your Nine Rooms Hall is derived from the Tang Dynasty poet Bai Juyi's masterpiece, 'Song of Everlasting Sorrow,' right?" Chen He's voice was incomparably calm as he continued, "Miss Ren, you must have seen too much of the smoke and dust outside the city, so you came here to live in seclusion, hoping that no one would recognize you, right?"
At this moment, Miss Ren slowly raised her head. Her beautiful, pearl-like eyes stared at Chen He in surprise, as if … she wanted to see something from this man's eyes.
"Miss, am I right?" Chen He continued to strike up a conversation. At this moment, he was like a yuppie, a ruffian who chased after a girl to ask her name.
After a long time, Miss Ren suddenly smiled. Her smile was so beautiful that even the air became calm and gentle.
"Ren Nishang." She softly said her name. Her magnetic voice floated in the air, and when combined with her fame, it was like a poem.
"Ren Nishang?" Chen He's eyes narrowed slightly, and the corners of his mouth curled up. "Good name, good name. The spirit comes in the sun; the sky is blue, and the sky is white … Miss Nishang, you are indeed extraordinary."
When she heard this, Ren Nishang's beautiful eyes looked up again. Her long, black eyelashes fluttered gently with the rhythm of her breathing. She didn't expect that this man … could actually analyze her name … so thoroughly?
"Mr. Chen is really interesting, a strange person." Ren Nishang smiled slightly and didn't reply.
At this moment, the pot of clear spring water on the tea stove was already boiling!
Ren Nishang gently picked up the purple clay tea stove and then began to make tea and rinse the cups.
She gently raised her jade-like hand, and the boiling hot water flowed down gently like a long spring, and poured into the purple clay teapot with unerring accuracy.
The rich and fragrant Longjing leaves floated in the boiling water and then gradually settled. They condensed into a cup of fragrant tea.
Ren Nishang gently handed the teacups to Sha Ruijing and Chen He.
"Thank you, Miss Ren." Sha Ruijing nodded politely to express his gratitude.
Chen He didn't stand on ceremony. He directly picked up the teacup and gently sniffed it, looking like he was enjoying it.
"Good tea, good tea. Miss Nishang's tea ceremony is really superb. " Chen He exclaimed. In his words, he even directly called Ren Nishang by her name as Miss Nishang, as if he was very familiar with her.
