Chapter 448: I Really Miss You
At this time, Ye Chen looked at Paul and asked curiously: "Paul, did you often come to China before?"
Paul shook his head and said with a smile: "I just came over for business occasionally, but every time it wouldn't exceed a week."
Ye Chen asked with a puzzled face: "Then how come you know so much about tea, Chinese furniture, and wood?"
Paul smiled and said: "Mainly because my mother likes these things. I've been exposed to these things since I was a child under her influence."
As he spoke, Paul added: "Don't look at me as if I'm a mixed-race person, and as if I look more like a white person, but actually, in my bones, I'm a thorough yellow person. I've been influenced by my mother since I was a child, and I especially like Chinese culture, Chinese food, Chinese habits, and everything Chinese."
"I see."
Ye Chen nodded, and while burning water on the tea sea, he prepared to brew the tea—the tea leaves bought from a scammer on WeChat.
After brewing the tea, Ye Chen poured a cup for Paul and himself, and said to Paul with a smile: "Come, taste my father-in-law's tea."
Paul nodded and said thanks, then picked up the teacup and sipped it slightly on his lips.
Immediately after, his expression became somewhat strange.
After carefully savoring it for a long time, he said awkwardly: "Uncle Xiao's taste in tea is very strange. To tell you the truth, I can't taste anything good about this kind of tea. Why does Uncle Xiao still regard it as a treasured good tea?"
Ye Chen thought to himself, this Paul is truly discerning, much stronger than his father-in-law.
His silly father-in-law has been drinking this kind of tea, not only not tasting the problem, but the more he drinks, the better he thinks it tastes.
If he hadn't stopped him, he would definitely have found that WeChat tea-selling girl to buy some more.
So he said to Paul with a smile: "This tea was bought by my father-in-law from a scammer on WeChat. He spent a lot of money, but it's truly not any good stuff."
Paul also understood what was going on, nodded with a smile, and said to Ye Chen: "I have some top-grade Jin Jun Mei that I specifically asked someone to buy from the south. If there's a chance, I'll take some for Mr. Ye and Uncle Xiao to taste. That tea is truly very good; it's a top-grade Jin Jun Mei master who personally picked and stir-fried it."
Ye Chen thanked him politely and said: "My father-in-law actually doesn't understand tea very well, but he just likes it very much. So if you give him very good tea, that would be a waste of heaven's gifts. It's better to let him continue drinking this kind of tea and have fun by himself."
Actually, Ye Chen's psychological activity was: I, as a son-in-law, haven't given him any good tea yet. If you, an outsider, give it, wouldn't it seem inappropriate?
Paul didn't realize Ye Chen's mindset. Thinking of what Xiao Xiao Changkun said to him before entering the villa, he looked at Ye Chen curiously and said: "Mr. Ye, I heard Uncle Xiao say that this villa was earned by you looking at Feng Shui for others. Is it true?"
Ye Chen smiled slightly and said: "You could say that. Actually, it's not just looking at Feng Shui, but by looking at Feng Shui, I helped others solve some relatively important problems."
Paul said very sincerely: "Mr. Ye, to tell you the truth, I have also studied I Ching and Bagua quite a bit, but I've never had a very good master to lead me into the door, and my spare time is relatively limited, so my research is relatively shallow."
As he spoke, Paul added: "Right, Mr. Ye, my new company is about to officially open in Jin Ling. When the time comes, can I trouble you to help me look at the Feng Shui?"
Seeing that this Paul was quite friendly to him, and this person's emotional intelligence and quality were relatively high, based on the principle of not hitting a smiling person, he said with a smile: "When is your company opening? Before that, I can take time to go over and take a look."
Paul said very excitedly: "That's truly thank you so much. My company is opening the day after tomorrow. If you have time, is tomorrow okay?"
"Okay."
At this moment
Xiao Xiao Changkun helped out on the side, very diligently.
He had dreamed of such a day, where he could be in the kitchen with his beloved Han Han Meiqing and cook a sumptuous dinner.
But he hadn't expected that this dream would finally be fulfilled after more than twenty years.
Han Han Meiqing also felt a thousand emotions in her heart. She had lived with her husband in the United States for more than 20 years, and the two of them often cooked together, but it had never given her the feeling she had now.
She just felt that this man beside her, as long as he stood by her side, could bring her an infinite sense of closeness.
Cooking for him and being busy in the kitchen with him, her heart was full of joy and satisfaction.
When the two were cooking together, it was inevitable that there would be some friction and contact between their bodies. Sometimes it was brushing against a hand, and other times it was touching other parts. Soon, both of them were blushing.
After all, both of them had a lot of history, and they were each other's first love. Even when they first tasted forbidden fruit, they had given their first times to each other.
So, after meeting again after so many years, the hearts of both were constantly influenced by the memories of the past.
It was as if there was a strong magnetic field within both of them, and it was the kind of magnetic field where opposites attract.
When Xiao Xiao Changkun was helping Han Han Meiqing, there were countless times he was close to her, and several times he had an impulse in his heart to directly hold her in his arms.
But this impulse was quickly suppressed by the timidity and cowardice in his heart.
Han Han Meiqing was usually very capable and efficient at housework, but today, because her first love was by her side, she felt that no matter what she did, she seemed a bit absent-minded.
She was even constantly distracted because of the man beside her.
Several times when she was cutting things, she almost cut her hand because of her distraction.
Xiao Xiao Changkun was also a bit absent-minded on the side. His energy wasn't on washing vegetables, picking vegetables, or helping Han Han Meiqing, but on Han Han Meiqing herself.
At this moment, Xiao Xiao Changkun even regretted moving into the large villa at Tang Chen Yi Pin.
Because if they were in their previous home, in that narrow kitchen, the two of them working inside, even if they were just passing by, they would inevitably have to touch or even be pressed against each other.
But the kitchen in this Tang Chen Yi Pin villa was simply too big.
Even if five people were working inside at the same time, it could be orderly and without interference.
So every time Xiao Xiao Changkun wanted to get closer to Han Han Meiqing, he needed to find some special reason or excuse.
Xiao Xiao Changkun struggled for a long time but didn't dare to embrace Han Han Meiqing. Every time he gathered his courage, he quickly chickened out again.
Finally, when Han Han Meiqing put the shrimp for the Longjing Shrimp dish into the pot, Xiao Xiao Changkun suddenly gathered some courage, hugged her tightly from behind, and whispered nervously and excitedly, "Han Meiqing, for these twenty-plus years, I have really missed you so much!"
