Chapter 260: Chapter 127: Another Cup_3

Typical boys from an average family, seeing a million-yuan tea cake, would inevitably feel inferior, right?

Even those phoenix men set on living off women would find it hard to withstand such an "Intimidating Stick," It’s not just a simple matter of family wealth disparity, but a violent shock to their existing values.

A tea cake weighing over 300 grams, one million RMB, drinking generously wouldn’t last two months, costing about 5 million a year.

If your annual income is less than 50 million, are they supposed to provide for your retirement?!

This is a kind of silent but profound warning, under normal circumstances, without having to do much more, it can eliminate 99% of the boys’ inappropriate thoughts towards Gu Jiuyue.

And it doesn’t allow anyone to find any fault—Wang’s attitude wasn’t the slightest bit condescending, and he entertained Su Huai with the highest courtesy.

Ha!

Crafty old fox...

Su Huai withdrew his gaze from Gu Jiuyue’s collarbone, picked up the fruit plate with one hand, and placed it in front of her.

"Want some fruit?"

Gu Jiuyue casually pinched two cherries and popped them into her mouth.

As she ate, without even looking up, she replied, "You eat too, they’re quite sweet."

"Okay, I’ll try."

Indeed, very sweet, bursting with flavor, the taste so incredibly good.

"Really nice flavor, what variety?"

"I don’t know, I just eat."

Neither of them had even made eye contact, everything so spontaneous that there was an inexplicable harmony.

"Alright, we can drink now!"

Professor Wang interrupted their exchange with a chuckle, his demeanor still flawlessly polite, but Su Huai noticed... his mouth was slightly puffed.

What’s the rush?!

Trying to hold back his laughter, Su Huai lifted his teacup with both hands, carefully sniffing the aroma, and exclaimed in admiration, "Professor Wang, this tea smells amazing, such an enchanting scent."

"Heh heh..."

Wang’s face couldn’t hide his pride, his heart torn between joy and worry as he turned to his beloved granddaughter.

"Yueyue, would you have a cup of tea with Grandpa?"

Gu Jiuyue, still not looking up, dismissively sent him on his way, "Ask Su Huai to join you, I’m not fond of it, he probably will be."

An offhanded comment made old Wang really anxious.

How do you know he would like it?!

And what gives this brat the right to use the word "join"?

Yueyue, you used to be so close to Grandpa, not like this!

Old child, old child, full of issues and loves to play around.

In his envisioned scenario, this scene was not supposed to happen.

"Su..."

Old Wang, with a dry smile and a sour tone yet hopeful, urged Su Huai to hurry up and taste it.

"It might be a bit hard on you to drink this aged tea, just try it, it doesn’t matter if it’s not to your taste, we have beverages at home, please don’t be polite with us..."

"Of course, Professor Wang."

Su Huai smiled shyly, then lifted the teacup, gently sipping a mouthful, and immediately frowned.

"How is it?!"

Old Wang’s eyes lit up, impatiently asking for his impression.

"Smack!"

Su Huai suddenly slapped his thigh, raising his pitch in excitement and amazement, "No wonder it’s so expensive, is it not incredibly delicious? Way better than any beverage!"

Huh?!

Old Wang’s eyes widened, struck by the dramatic reversal... how could this be?!

In such a critical moment, before he could even react, Gu Jiuyue lifted her head, looked at Su Huai, and softly said, "If you like it, drink more, Grandpa rarely serves it to guests, last time Director Zhang came over, he didn’t even get a sniff of the tea, only got to see it through the wrapping paper..."

Wow, old Wang’s such a penny-pincher, huh?

Gou Huai’s eyes suddenly brightened, realizing how he might outlast the old man.

He drained the tea in his cup, willingly reached for the teapot, and chuckled.

"Grandfather Wang, I can’t refuse such kind hospitality, let me have another cup..."

The smile doesn’t disappear, it just moves to another face.
