Chapter 1277: Chapter 1274: Sheng Family’s Eldest Sister Harbors Ill Intentions (Third Update)

This tea house occupies a vast area, and its geographic location is exceptionally advantageous, with luxurious decorations to match.

Therefore, every time the mountain opening ceremony arrives, this becomes the premier choice for various elites.

Moreover, if your strength or status isn’t sufficient, you wouldn’t even be able to enter this tea house.

But Sheng Miaotong didn’t care about any of that; she walked right in with her head held high.

The waiter responsible for receiving guests was about to speak, then he saw the emblem on Sheng Miaotong’s clothing, trembled all over in fear, and quickly came forward to serve her.

Xue An and his companions followed the elated Sheng Miaotong straight to the top floor.

There was no one to disturb them here; it was extremely quiet, and sitting by the window offered an unobstructed view of the whole Golden Cauldron Pavilion, making the environment truly exceptional.

With a beaming smile, Sheng Miaotong gestured, “Have a seat quickly!”

At the same time, more than a dozen beautiful maidservants brought up a variety of exquisite tea snacks like butterflies fluttering through flowers.

This grand display made Xing Yushu feel somewhat uncomfortable.

Only Xue An sat quietly, remarking indifferently, “You said the tea here is not bad?”

“Yes!” Sheng Miaotong said cheerfully, then turned her head and gave an order.

“Come, prepare the tea!”

“Yes!”

Soon after, a lady in palace attire gracefully approached and began to skillfully prepare the tea.

The first cup of tea was naturally offered to Sheng Miaotong, but she just grinned and handed it directly to Xue An, “Here! Taste it and see how it is?”

Xue An took a sip and slightly raised his eyebrows.

“Not bad! But it’s a bit astringent; clearly, the brew is not quite there yet!”

This comment caused the palace-dressed lady to slightly change color.

Knowing she had studied the art of tea for a century and received countless distinguished guests, she had never met someone who could pinpoint the issue as accurately as this youth.

Therefore, she softly acknowledged, “The young master is truly extraordinary! This year’s misty mountain tea matured three days earlier than usual, and thus it’s a bit more tender. If prepared as before, it would easily get overdone, so I picked the tea early, yet the young master has discerned it anyway!”

Her words were filled with admiration.

Xue An smiled and casually took up the tea-making tools, then began to prepare the tea himself.

His movements were as fluid as drifting clouds and flowing water, and before long, the fragrance of tea began to fill the air.

The palace-dressed lady’s eyes gradually widened.

Being a connoisseur herself, she could see how rare Xue An’s technique was.

And especially this tea aroma, it was simply unprecedented.

Sheng Miaotong looked on expectantly with a chuckle, “Hehe, is this that Walmart Dragon Well tea again?”

“No, this is the Tie Guan Yin from Carrefour!” Xue An said lightly.

In a moment, the tea was ready!

Eager to taste, Sheng Miaotong hastily picked up a cup and drank without care for the heat, then began to praise incessantly.

“What on earth is this Carrefour? But the tea is indeed tasty!”

The palace-dressed lady could not contain her curiosity, took a sip for herself, and her eyes brightened.

This tea aroma was completely different from any tea she had ever tasted.

The key was that the preparation was just perfect, so she praised, “The young master’s skill is remarkable!”

But while they were brewing and chatting about tea, they saw the clouds in the distant sky stir, and then a huge Flying Boat emerged from within.

The size of the Flying Boat was beyond ordinary imagination, it was practically like a small city.

Before the Flying Boat, there was also a great emblem imprinted.

Upon seeing the Flying Boat, Sheng Miaotong trembled all over, accidentally tipping over the teacup in front of her. The scalding liquid made her cry out, then she turned around intending to flee.

But just at that moment, a cold female voice came from within the Flying Boat.

“Stay right there!”

This sentence was like a Paralysis Spell, instantly freezing Sheng Miaotong in place.

At the same time, the Flying Boat slowly drifted closer to the teahouse.

As it drew nearer, one could better appreciate the enormity and luxury of the Flying Boat.

Everyone in the small town saw this scene and their faces were all filled with shock and respect.

Because the visitor was the long-renowned eldest miss of the Sheng Family, Sheng Manyu.

At that time, light swirled in front of the Flying Boat, and then out stepped a tall, fair-skinned woman with incomparable elegance and beauty.

Upon seeing this woman, the lady in court attire quickly stood up and bowed with respect, “I greet the eldest miss!”

Eldest Miss Sheng said nothing, her beautiful eyes glancing around, sweeping over everyone in the room, and finally resting on Xue An who was still leisurely sipping tea behind the tea table. Then a sharp cold glint flashed across her eyes.

This silent majestic aura rendered the entire floor of the teahouse silent as the grave.

The lady in court attire’s face showed an expression of absolute shock, yet Xue An remained completely unmoved, not even blinking an eyelid.

Meanwhile, Sheng Miaotong, realizing she could not escape, stiffly turned around and forced a smile towards her sister.

“Sister… Sister! Why have you come?”

“What, you’re not welcoming me?” Sheng Manyu said indifferently.

“Ah no no no! That’s not what I meant, I was wondering why you came at this time?” Sheng Miaotong explained hastily and nervously.

“If I didn’t come now, our Sheng Family’s good name might well be beyond saving!” Sheng Manyu said coldly.

Sheng Miaotong’s face turned pale, a look of horror appearing in her eyes.

As clever as she was, how could she fail to hear the implied meaning in Sheng Manyu’s words?

But the key question was, how could she have found out so quickly?

While she was pondering this,

a magnetic male voice with a hint of a smile said: “Manyu, look what you’ve done to poor Miaotong.”

With these words, two more figures emerged from the radiant light.

The one in the front was a tall and handsome young man with an excellent appearance and temperament.

Following behind him was Su Junneng who had arrived after.

However, at this moment, Su Junneng no longer bore his usual arrogance, but instead, his face was full of flattery and eager to please.

Even when walking, he dared not raise his head, but kept bowing.

Then the young man slowly approached Sheng Manyu, and said with an appropriate smile, “Manyu, don’t be too cold, or what will we do if Miaotong gets frightened?”

Sheng Manyu glanced at the young man and silently nodded her head.

Afterward, the young man turned his head to look at Sheng Miaotong, his smile bright and said, “It’s alright, Miaotong. Manyu is not angry with you anymore!”

But regardless of how gentle and refined the young man appeared, when Sheng Miaotong looked at him, her eyes couldn’t hide her cold indifference and disgust.

Soon, she lowered her gaze and spoke softly, “Thank you, Young Master Lu!”

The young man was slightly taken aback, then he looked deeply at Sheng Miaotong who was petite and charming, despite not yet having fully matured and a trace of unspeakable greed flashed through the depths of his eyes.

Then he said cheerfully, “Miaotong, considering the Lu Family and the Sheng Family have a close relationship and I’ve watched you grow up since childhood, why be so formal? Just call me ‘brother’!”
