Seeing me come out of the private room, soaked to the skin, Mei looked troubled. She opened her mouth as if to say something but, in the end, didn't say anything. She just sighed and handed me a towel.
As I was drying off, I couldn't help but laugh, "Mei, that bastard Qian Lixin actually broke the top-grade private room's teaware. He's definitely got to pay for that."
Mei's face displayed a mix of emotions, "He humiliated you like that, and you're only worried about the teaware?"
I continued to laugh, "That's the tea house's property, of course he should pay for it." I paused and then dropped the smile, "Mei, I'm very clear about my own status. Without Yu Fei, I'm nothing, so until I can stand on my own two feet, I don't want to cause any trouble for Yu Fei."
A flash of surprise crossed Mei's eyes, then she nodded and headed to another private room. Meanwhile, I gathered my things and drove straight home.
