Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife novel Chapter 405

Chapter 405: Chapter 405: Dare to Take Over?

Cheng Su came out of the restroom and, feeling a bit embarrassed at the sight of the man with his back to her, walked over to him.

"All set?" Luh Kai asked with a smile as she sat down and poured her another cup of tea.

The place they were in was a tea house, which Luh Kai had brought her to. It had a bit of an old Chengdu feel from a previous life, with tea to drink, Beijing operas to listen to, and face-changing performances to watch.

Cheng Su’s face was still flushed as she hesitantly said, "Director Luh, I’m truly sorry. Don’t worry, I’ll compensate you with a new handkerchief."

With a smile, Luh Kai said, "It’s just a handkerchief, Ms. Cheng, you don’t need to worry about it. You’ve done great things for our Supply and Marketing Cooperative that I haven’t even thanked you for yet!" "It’s different, what needs to be compensated must be compensated!" Cheng Su thought about the handkerchief, still with an embarrassed look on her face. After all, she’d blown her nose in it—even if it was washed clean now, it would still be somewhat offensive, right?

"Have some tea, the tea here is quite good. I ordered Pu-erh, not sure if you’re accustomed to drinking it," Luh Kai said amiably, pointing to the teacup in front of her without arguing further.

"Pu-erh is good for the stomach, I’m used to it. Usually, I drink either floral tea or black tea and Pu-erh," Cheng Su remarked as she admired the tea in the blue and white teacup in front of her. She took a sip and praised, "The color is vibrant and clear, and it’s smooth and richly flavored, a fine tea indeed."

"It seems Ms. Cheng is not only proficient in business but also quite the tea connoisseur!" Luh Kai commented. "This is a fifteen-year-old Pu-erh."

With a gasp, Cheng Su exclaimed, "Then I must have a few more sips. Pu-erh is said to be an antique you can drink!"

"Oh? That’s a fresh take," Luh Kai said, raising an eyebrow.

Cheng Su nodded, and with another sip of the tea, added, "Pu-erh is different from other green teas, newer isn’t necessarily better. The older Pu-erh gets, the more its aroma develops. A well-kept, aged piece of Pu-erh can sell for a hefty sum of gold later on!"

What a considerate and gentlemanly man!

"So Ms. Cheng is embarking on another business venture? I’ve heard you already have a restaurant called Joy Soon Loy, and I’ve been there—it’s quite good," Luh Kai expressed in surprise.

"I’ve seen that this area has a lot of pedestrian traffic, which makes fast food an excellent choice," Cheng Su said, openly sharing her thoughts with him, before adding, "By the way, my name is Cheng Su. Please don’t keep calling me Ms. Cheng, it makes me uncomfortable. Just call me by my name!"

Luh Kai smiled and said, "Then you shouldn’t call me Director Luh either, just use my name. I heard you were looking for a shop to take over, and I happen to know of a transferable rent. It just depends on whether you dare to take it on!"

Cheng Su paused mid-sip, looking at him in surprise.
