Hearing what Xiao Mi said, Chen Kai felt somewhat embarrassed, reached out to take the tea, but did not drink it, and instead placed it on the side table.
Xiao Mi was not satisfied, pouting as she looked at Chen Kai.
"What do you mean by this? You've taken it but you're not drinking it, do you find the tea unsatisfactory? Or do you suspect I've spiked it with something to make you stay?"
Chen Kai grew even more embarrassed, coughing awkwardly.
"What are you talking about? I'm not drinking it because it's too hot. You just brought it over; I have to let it cool down a bit before drinking, right? Or did you want to burn my tongue?"
Xiao Mi gave a charming smile.
"I thought you were just being picky about my tea, but if that's the case, just leave it there. Let's just chat casually. You've never been to my place despite my working at your company for so long, and to visit today in such a manner... I really don't know what to make of it."
