Chapter 635: Caught a Good Card

~11 min read 2,009 words

Lin Xiaoxi's sudden appearance in the bar made me doubt for a while, and later in the teahouse, I finally found the answer.

Deng Hanyuan took us out of the bar and turned to a teahouse.

The teahouse in the Central Province is different. In other places, the teahouse is for drinking tea, but their teahouse is for playing mahjong. This is the same as our Hengyue City, with different paths to the same goal.

The teahouse Deng Hanyuan took us to was clearly not a teahouse for playing mahjong. From the moment we entered the door, we could smell the faint tea fragrance, as well as the quietness as elegant as a daughter's boudoir.

Lin Xiaoxi held my hand all the way, not letting go, and from time to time took my injured hand and asked me: "Do you want to go to the hospital for a bandage?"

I refused her kindness. This little injury didn't count as anything to me. However, the handkerchief Lin Xiaoxi used to press my wound was soaked by my blood, and on her white handkerchief, it was like a plum blossom in bloom.

Because I didn't know what good method Deng Hanyuan could think of for me, I didn't refuse him. Deng Hanyuan had been in the provincial capital for so long, and he would know some high officials. Especially a person who knows how to drill like him, there is always something that others can't do but he can get his hands on.

Lin Xiaoxi didn't know Deng Hanyuan, and wanted to ask me several times. But because Deng Hanyuan didn't leave half a step, her doubts had to be written on her face, and she followed us to the teahouse with a nervous mood.

Deng Hanyuan wanted a quiet tea room and waved for the waiter to send his tea.

From the bar to the teahouse, Deng Hanyuan was as if he were in his own home, as if any place in the provincial capital of the Central Province had his things left behind. This familiarity of his made me secretly surprised, so I was more determined that Deng Hanyuan had a way to send me a strange soldier.

The water was boiled, and Deng Hanyuan made tea slowly. He didn't let the tea master of the teahouse make it, saying that the tea he made was absolutely not inferior to the tea master, and there was a charm that the tea master couldn't make.

I nodded and smiled. Deng Hanyuan's acting like a god and playing the devil was a secret recipe passed down from his family. I thought of Deng Hanyuan in Chunshan County. Among the two brothers, Deng Hanyuan was obviously stronger than his younger brother Deng Hanyuan. But Deng Hanyuan was now relegated to a corner of Suxi Town, living a life without fighting with the world.

Deng Hanyuan's change was seen when I returned to Suxi Town last time. I couldn't help but sigh in my heart. If Deng Hanyuan hadn't met me on the issue of investment promotion, Qian Youyu wouldn't have become a resident of my Suxi Town, but would have become a member of his Chengguan Town. Today's Deng Hanyuan wouldn't honestly stay in Suxi Town. Perhaps, the person who came to the Provincial Party School for training last time would be him instead of me.

Deng Hanyuan was a defeated general under my command. The possibility of Deng Hanyuan wanting to make a moth for me almost didn't exist.

I am a suspicious person. Although I look down on Deng Hanyuan in front of me, I can't help but guard against him giving me a dark hand.

After Deng Hanyuan made the tea, he drank a small sip with satisfaction and said: "Brother, when we drink tea, why do we have to pour out a little bit before drinking?"

I looked at him inexplicably, and Deng Hanyuan said with emotion: "Pouring out a little tea is to respect the Tea God!"

I slapped my head and said: "Brother Deng, you are really knowledgeable."

Deng Hanyuan smiled conceitedly: "Legend has it that the Tea God Lu Yu loved tea like his life. He could have no meat for three days, but he couldn't have no tea for a moment."

I didn't understand his meaning, so I had to listen to him continue to say quietly.

Deng Hanyuan didn't say it anymore, pointed to the teacup and said: "Come, come, taste it, see how my craftsmanship is?"

I tasted it lightly and praised it insincerely: "Sure enough, it lives up to its reputation!"

Deng Hanyuan laughed loudly and poured me another cup: "We drink tea today, actually it also has something to do with your matter."

"Is that so?" I asked in surprise.

Deng Hanyuan smiled unfathomably, looked at Lin Xiaoxi and said: "Is the beauty my brother's girlfriend?"

Lin Xiaoxi blushed and said: "You got it wrong. We are just acquaintances."

Deng Hanyuan nodded: "Oh, you are not in our circle, naturally you don't know." He let us drink tea again, and praised himself: "Good tea!"

I wanted to laugh, but didn't hold back. As soon as the smile came out, Deng Hanyuan asked me: "Brother, what are you laughing at?"

I held the teacup and said: "I almost forgot to respect the Tea God just now."

Saying that, I poured a little tea water, then raised it to my mouth and drank it in one gulp.

Deng Hanyuan sighed: "In the future, brother, don't forget to respect the Tea God when drinking tea. Although the Tea God is not a great god, he is also a god after all. Don't you think?"

I nodded and said: "Brother Deng's words are very true. Gods are not divided into big and small, and their magic power is the same."

Lin Xiaoxi on the side smiled: "You are all cadres, you should be atheists, why are you talking about gods and immortals, aren't you afraid of being contrary to your own principles?"

Deng Hanyuan smiled: "Immortals are also changed from people. Whether it is a god or a person, they have to eat, drink, pull and sprinkle. As long as they eat, drink, pull and sprinkle, they must have vulgar thoughts."

Lin Xiaoxi was stunned by what I said and couldn't speak.

Deng Hanyuan said exaggeratedly: "Hey, brother, why are you talking about women? Especially beautiful women, we should be their mentors. As long as they don't understand, we must be tireless in teaching!"

I pondered that if I let Deng Hanyuan play endlessly, I don't know what kind of strange talk he would say. He clearly didn't know that the girl sitting opposite him, Lin Xiaoxi, was the daughter of the Vice Governor of the Central Province, Lin Shengmao. If he knew her identity, even if he used a millstone to press him at this moment, he wouldn't be able to let out a fart.

I interrupted him: "Brother Deng, you just said that the owner of this teahouse is an elegant person, what kind of elegance is it?"

Deng Hanyuan pondered for a while and said: "This is also the meaning of me bringing you here today."

I started to listen carefully.

"But elegant people all have an inseparable origin with piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and they will have some rare treasures in their hands. This boss is no exception, I came here to beg him."

"Beg him?" I asked in confusion.

"Yes, it's begging him. However, I'm not begging him for myself, but for you."

"For me?" I couldn't figure it out. You Deng Hanyuan begging someone has a fart relationship with me.

"It's for you. Of course, Gan beauty spoke, no matter how capable I, Deng Hanyuan, am, I will do one thing for her even if I am smashed to pieces!" Deng Hanyuan sighed: "To tell you the truth, I, this person, am a hero who can't pass the beauty pass!"

He giggled and looked at Lin Xiaoxi. Compared with Gan Lu, Gan Lu is a peony, and Lin Xiaoxi is a peony.

"Meng Xiaoyu can live without women in his life, but he will absolutely not live without rubbings. Of course, the premise must be a unique piece."

"You mean, this boss has a unique piece in his hand?"

Deng Hanyuan smiled and didn't answer, asking me back: "If others also have requirements, will you agree or not?"

I asked hesitantly: "What requirement?"

"Of course, it's something you can handle."

"As long as it doesn't violate laws and policies, I can agree."

"Good!" Deng Hanyuan slapped his thigh, raised his head and shouted at the door: "Boss Ou, come in!"

The door rang lightly, and a middle-aged man in a long gown came in, with a long beard under his jaw, setting him off as a fairy-like person.

I stood up to greet him without knowing it.

Lin Xiaoxi also stood up with me, only Deng Hanyuan opposite was motionless.

Boss Ou introduced himself: "Everyone, my name is Ouyang Yuchun, welcome to my humble home, the humble home is full of glory!"

Deng Hanyuan smiled: "Boss Ou, don't be sour. I called the person, you say the conditions yourself."

Ouyang Yuchun smiled lightly and didn't answer Deng Hanyuan's words. I saw his eyebrows twitch quietly, seemingly very disgusted with Deng Hanyuan's words.

Ouyang Yuchun's appearance itself surprised me. His long gown dress made me respect him even more.

I am a person who respects readers very much. The boss named Ouyang Yuchun in front of me can tell from his words and deeds that this person is well-read, hidden, and a master of the world.

He lifted the hem of his long gown, took out a cloth bag from inside, held it respectfully with both hands, walked to the tea table, first freed a hand, brushed away the invisible dust on the tea table, then bent down, blew lightly on the desktop, and then carefully placed the cloth bag on the table, looking at me, smiling humbly and said: "Please appreciate!" ===== CHAPTER 636 =====

"You mean, this boss has a rare, one-of-a-kind item in his hands?"

Deng Hanyu smiled without answering, instead asking me, "If he also has a request, will you agree or not?"

I hesitated and asked, "What request?"

"Naturally, something you are capable of doing."

"As long as it doesn't violate laws or policies, I can agree to anything."

"Good!" Deng Hanyu slapped his thigh, looked up, and shouted toward the door, "Boss Ou, come on in!"

The door gave a light sound, and a middle-aged man wearing a long gown entered; a wisp of a long beard under his chin set off his transcendent, scholarly air.

I stood up instinctively to greet him.

Lin Xiaoxi also stood up with me; only Deng Hanyu, sitting opposite, remained unmoved.

Boss Ou introduced himself, saying, "Everyone, I am Ouyang Yuchun. Welcome to my humble abode; your presence truly brings light to my home!"

Deng Hanyu laughed and said, "Boss Ou, stop being so pretentious. I've called the person here; state your conditions yourself."

Ouyang Yuchun smiled faintly and did not respond to Deng Hanyu's words. I saw his brows twitch slightly; he seemed to find Deng Hanyu's words quite distasteful.

Ouyang Yuchun's appearance was unexpected to me. His long gown attire made me respect him all the more.

I am someone who deeply respects scholars. From the words and actions of this Boss Ouyang before me, one could tell that this man was well-read, kept his true talents hidden, and was a master living in seclusion.

He lifted the hem of his long gown, took out a cloth bundle from inside, held it respectfully with both hands, and walked to the tea table. First, he freed one hand to brush away invisible dust from the table, then bent down to blow gently on the surface before carefully placing the bundle on the table. Looking at me, he smiled humbly and said, "Please, take a look!"
