The glass room was surrounded by plants as tall as the room itself. The room was air-conditioned, making the temperature within the tea room pleasant, not too cold or warm.
Upon entering the tea room, Zhang Te first asked Xia Wan'an to sit down and then started to boil water and search through the cupboard for tea leaves. "What type of tea would you like to drink, ma'am? We have green tea, black tea, ripe Pu'er, raw Pu'er..."
"Ripe Pu'er, please." After sitting down, Xia Wan'an looked around the tea room.
Only after Zhang Te had taken a seat opposite her, did Xia Wan'an speak again. "Zhang Te, I came to see you because I wanted to ask you what you know about Xiaoyao."
"Miss Xiaoyao?" Only after pre-rinsing the tea leaves and pouring a small cup of tea for himself and Xia Wan'an did Zhang Te respond, "What's wrong with Miss Xiaoyao? Does she have a problem?"
