Chapter 91: 91, Seeing is Believing (Fourth Watch)_1
As expected, the headlines for the next several days were dominated by Quan Jingwu. If it weren’t for his intimidating aura, many paparazzi reporters would probably be camped out at his residence.
After the press conference ended, the choice of the jewelry spokesperson was a shock to everyone. People originally thought the position would definitely go to Chu Ruohan considering the power and influence of the Chu family. However, it turned out that the role was given to the top domestic actress, Liu Ruming. This news made everyone sigh in disbelief, also making them feel anxious for her.
After all, competing with Chu Ruohan for the spokesperson role was a risky move.
However, Jian Qing didn’t care about any of these. Once the press conference ended, her collaboration with JK International also concluded. She had to make concessions and paid them off to avoid being disturbed by a certain individual daily.
She only crawled out of bed at nine o’clock, having just finished breakfast when her phone rang.
Caller ID: Aqiu
Without waiting too long, Jian Qing answered the call, and Aqiu’s robust voice came through.
“Miss Qing, you haven’t been back for quite some time. The old master’s health has not been well these days. Could you return to visit him?”
Jian Qing frowned, “I understand, I will return soon.”
After hanging up the phone, Jian Qing checked the time. It was the weekend, and she had plans to have lunch with Xiaojing. The timing should be just right if she visits the old house first before meeting him.
With that in mind, Jian Qing went upstairs to change her clothes, grabbed her phone, and left the house.
…
The An Family Mansion
“So, what did the girl say?” The old master An asked urgently as Aqiu hung up the phone, “Is she coming back today?”
Aqiu helped him sit down and said with a smile, “Master, don’t worry, Miss Qing will be here soon.”
Upon hearing this, the old master An sighed with relief, “That’s good, it’s good that she’s coming back.”
A knock on the door announced the servant’s entrance, “The Old Master, Master Quan has come to see you.”
“Please send him to the study room,” the old master An ordered.
The servant nodded respectfully and left.
“Zhen Guo, that old fella, must be here for a chess match.” The old master An smiled, “Aqiu, set up the chessboard and have tea brought over.”
“Yes.” Seeing the rare cheerfulness of the old master An, Aqiu responded promptly.
“Uncle An, I hope I’m not disturbing you.” Before entering, the sonorous voice of Master Quan echoed inside. Dressed in simple Tang clothes, he came in with a big smile on his face, carrying a bag of tea leaves.
“What kind of tea leaves did you bring me this time?” The old master An asked.
Master Quan placed the tea on the table and took a seat opposite him, “This tea was specifically given to me by Jingwu, let’s taste it together.”
“Aqiu, bring the tea set, tell the servants to not bother with the tea,”
the old master An sniffed the bag and his eyes lightened up, immediately changing his mind.
“Yes,” Aqiu answered and then stepped out.
The old master An always cherished good tea, and would not take his hands off it once he got it. This reminded him of the tea that Jian Qing made for him a while ago.
“If only Qing was here, the tea she makes is extraordinary.”
In a corner where no one was paying attention, Master Quan’s eyes lit up and he asked tentatively, “The Qing you’re talking about, is it Jian Qing?”
“Of course, who else could it be?” said the old master An.
“That girl knows how to make tea?” The wheels in Master Quan’s mind were spinning.
A hint of pride flashed through the old master An’s eyes, “Of course, the tea that Qing makes is not any inferior than a top-notch tea master’s.”
Master Quan stroked his beard, “Seeing is believing, you should ask her to come test it; otherwise, this old man doesn’t believe it.”
