Chapter 975: Chapter 969: Have a Cup of Tea Before You Go

About twenty minutes later, Lu Tianxing, guided by Mu Qingxue, drove to the entrance of Mu Qingxue’s private apartment.

This was a standalone private apartment, which did not look very luxurious nor large, somewhat not matching Mu Qingxue’s status. However, the whole apartment gave a feeling of lush greenery. The flowers and plants inside were meticulously pruned, clearly indicating that the owner of the apartment often tended to them and knew how to enjoy life.

”Mr. Lu, come in for a cup of tea before you leave!” Mu Qingxue said to Lu Tianxing while sitting in the car, not getting out yet.

After saying this, Mu Qingxue let out a long sigh of relief, clearly having mustered the courage to voice it.

Lu Tianxing was about to decline but seeing the pleading look in Mu Qingxue’s beautiful eyes, he sighed slightly in his heart and nodded reluctantly.

Lu Tianxing felt he had never been a cold-hearted man; he didn’t want to see the helpless look of disappointment on others’ faces—especially not women’s. Moreover, Mu Qingxue had helped him so many times, particularly yesterday. Had it not been for Mu Qingxue, he might never have found Lin Qianru in his lifetime. So, logically and emotionally, he couldn’t refuse this small request of Mu Qingxue.

Furthermore, he had already turned Mu Qingxue down many times. If he couldn’t even agree to this simple request this time, Mu Qingxue’s heart would surely be devastated.

Seeing Lu Tianxing nod, Mu Qingxue’s previously dim eyes turned brighter at once, looking at Lu Tianxing with a hint of excitement, saying: ”Mr. Lu, please come in! I recently got some Wuyi Dahongpao from my grandfather; I’ll brew it for you and see if you like it.”

At this moment, Mu Qingxue’s heart was filled with joy. This was the first time Lu Tianxing had not rejected her request. How could she not be excited!

Lu Tianxing and Mu Qingxue got out of the car together and walked towards the apartment.

In front of the apartment was a spacious ground where some flowers and plants were planted. Through Mu Qingxue’s meticulous care, they looked very beautiful. An artificial creek flowed gently, calming one’s mood involuntarily. In a place not far from the creek, under a big tree, there was a swing, evidently where Mu Qingxue often sat.

”This is my private apartment. Generally, I live here. I personally tend to these flowers and plants. Also, look at the creek over there, those small stones underneath it, I collected them from the riverbank...” Mu Qingxue introduced to Lu Tianxing enthusiastically, as if afraid Lu Tianxing wouldn’t know all these were her own handiwork, much like a little girl eager to show off to her teacher after finding some money.

”It’s very beautiful, Miss Mu, you really know how to live. If someday I also want to choose such a quiet place to settle down, could I ask Miss Mu for some help and advice then?”

”No problem at all.”

Mu Qingxue agreed without thinking, her beautiful eyes curved like crescents, and an unprecedented feeling surged in her heart—happiness, a feeling of being acknowledged.

There was no one else inside Mu Qingxue’s apartment, not even a servant. As they walked into the living room, the entire room was kept very clean without a speck of dust, some furnishings were arranged with great care. However, judging by the surroundings, things were in odd numbers, clearly indicating that Mu Qingxue lived here alone. The walls were pink, and plush toys were placed on the sofa, making the whole room look pleasing to the eye.

”Mr. Lu, please have a seat.” Mu Qingxue pointed to the sofa for Lu Tianxing.

Lu Tianxing sat directly on the sofa without any formality.

”Mr. Lu, please wait here for a moment; I’ll go make you some tea.” Mu Qingxue said to Lu Tianxing.

”Sure, I’m also curious to see how Miss Mu’s tea-brewing skills are.” Lu Tianxing smiled and nodded.

”I promise not to disappoint you.”

Mu Qingxue’s lips curled into a confident smile. When it came to other things, she might not be confident, but regarding tea-making skills, Mu Qingxue believed she was second to none. Because when she had no work, her favorite thing was to brew a cup of tea by herself, sit quietly under the shade of a tree, and read a book.

After motioning Lu Tianxing to sit on the sofa, Mu Qingxue gave him a glance and quietly walked into the tea room.

Inside the tea room, there weren’t many tea leaves, but they were premium.
