"Professor Qiao, wouldn't it be inconvenient to come at night? And coming to your home would definitely disturb your rest."

Su Chen refused without even thinking.

He sensed something was wrong, but he couldn't bring himself to ask directly.

"No, no, how could it be a disturbance?"

"Professor Qiao, I... I think I'd better not go." Su Chen shook his head slightly; being socially awkward, he really wanted to refuse.

"Oh dear, as Mengmeng's teacher, and having come all this way, we, as her parents, must do our best to show you hospitality."

"Let's not talk about this for now. Come, come, rest for a while. I'll brew you some tea."

Qiao Huaiyuan interrupted.

After saying that, he got up and walked to a cabinet against the wall in the office, and quickly started rummaging through it.

Then, he carefully took out an exquisite tea canister.

When Qiao Mengmeng saw the jar, her eyes lit up immediately, and she asked in surprise:

"Grandpa, this isn't yours..."

Qiao Huaiyuan glanced at Qiao Mengmeng, signaling her not to say anything more.

“I’m telling you, Su Chen, young people also need to take care of their health. You should drink less coffee and try drinking more tea.”

Qiao Huaiyuan started talking to himself, explaining the benefits of drinking tea to Su Chen.

But his hands didn't stop either; his tea-making movements were fluid and graceful.

You can tell at a glance that it's top-quality aged tea.

Soon, a teacup was placed in front of Su Chen.

"Su Chen, you must try this! This is my treasured Sky Blue Jade Leaf tea, absolutely the finest among Maojian teas!"

"This green tea has a fresh and refreshing taste, a pleasant aroma, and a mild flavor, making it very suitable for young people."

"Grandpa, mine, where's mine?"

At this moment, Qiao Mengmeng blinked her big eyes and looked at the other person with an anxious expression.

"Alright, alright, you'll get your share."

After Qiao Huaiyuan finished speaking, he placed another teacup in front of Qiao Mengmeng.

After doing all that, he carefully picked up a cup and slowly savored it with a look of enjoyment on his face.

Qiao Mengmeng felt even happier when she saw her grandfather's expression.

On the way from Jiangcheng to Beijing, Qiao Mengmeng and Su Chen had a very pleasant chat.

Because they share the same major, the two naturally have a lot in common.

Furthermore, after inquiring about Su Chen's hobbies, she discovered that the two had many things in common.

What is the reality?

She selectively ignored all those differences.

At this moment, Qiao Huaiyuan took out this tea to entertain Su Chen.

She knew exactly what that meant.

It's important to know that Tianlan Yuye tea is the finest among Xinyang Maojian teas, and it can definitely be called the king of green teas.

This tea is produced in very limited quantities each year.

The price per kilogram is as high as 700,000 yuan!

Qiao Huaiyuan also went to great lengths to find some channels from others.

Even so, he could only get a small jar each year.

He would never normally offer this tea to guests.

Even the old professor himself couldn't bear to drink a single drop.

Qiao Mengmeng still remembers.

The last time her grandfather brought it out to entertain guests, it seems it was when her cousin brought her fiancé over.

Now, my cousin's child is two years old.

Thinking of this, Qiao Mengmeng blushed again.

But I felt incredibly happy inside.

The tea soup that you drink becomes even sweeter.

At this moment, she even started to fantasize about what to name her and Su Chen's child.

Also, is it better to send my child to kindergarten in Jiangcheng or go back to Beijing?

And what about Su Chen?

He really doesn't know anything about tea.

But judging from Qiao Huaiyuan's expression, it was clear that this tea must be quite expensive.

He then picked up his teacup and took a small sip.

The moment the tea touched my lips, my eyes lit up.

It has to be said that this tea is indeed delicious; even someone like him who doesn't know much about tea can tell the difference.

The tea soup is refreshing and sweet, with a lingering aftertaste.

It is indeed a top-quality tea.

Soon, the sun began to set.

Su Chen was also taken directly to Qiao Huaiyuan's home.

Qiao Huaiyuan's residence is located near Tsinghua and Peking Universities, just a wall away from the college.

This is a school district housing project specifically built for professors from Tsinghua and Peking Universities.

The house is not big, just a single-level house with three bedrooms and two living rooms, about 150 square meters.

However, given its location in the University Town of Beijing, the price would definitely be sky-high.

Su Chen was startled as soon as he entered the door.

Although this house is not large, the number of books inside is astonishing!

Su Chen glanced around and discovered that not only the study, but also the shelves in the living room had been transformed into bookshelves by Qiao Huaiyuan.

The total number of books in the house is almost comparable to that of a small bookstore.

After the group sat down...

Qiao Huaiyuan called out, "Mengmeng, hurry, call your parents and tell them to come over now."

“I told them a long time ago that Su Chen was coming today, but he's still not here. I'm afraid they've forgotten again.”

"OK."

Qiao Mengmeng responded.

After hearing this, Su Chen waved his hand and said, "No, no need to trouble yourself. If Uncle and Aunt are busy, let's do it another day, another day, okay?"

"Su Chen, you don't need to worry about this. You have no idea how dedicated Mengmeng's parents are to their work, even more so than I am."

"Sigh, I have no idea how Mengmeng has grown up so much over the years..."

Then, Qiao Huaiyuan gave a brief introduction to the Qiao family's situation.

Qiao Mengmeng's grandmother passed away from illness five years ago.
