Chapter 11 I Learned for You
Opposite the crosstalk club is a tea art club stall full of ancient charm.
Qiu Shi sat next to the display booth, brewing tea. The lingering aroma of tea wafted in the air, and the teacup in front of him was small and exquisite.
Pei Heng was attracted by the fragrance and stared at it curiously.
Seeing Pei Heng's interest, the senior from the Tea Art Club greeted him warmly, "Classmate, would you like to try a cup?"
Pei Heng didn't refuse and took the small cup and took a sip.
Pei Heng took a sip of the tea and savored its flavor, but he always felt that... something was missing.
Qiu Shi, who was making tea, asked somewhat proudly, "How do you feel?"
Pei Heng put down the teacup and said, "I don't like drinking."
It's not directed at anyone, I'm just being picky.
Qiu Shi didn't expect to be questioned, and his face instantly turned sour.
Shen Shi paid attention to Pei Heng, and seeing that he didn't like it, he thought for a moment and said gently to the senior sister, "Can I try brewing a pot?"
The senior was a little surprised, but still stood up with a smile.
"sure."
She asked the member next to her to bring better tea.
Pei Heng put down the small cup in his hand and looked at Shen Shi with a bit of curiosity, "Can you make tea?"
Shen Shi washed his hands and nodded, "Yes, I learned it for you."
Pei Heng: “?”
When did this happen?
The senior student glanced quickly back and forth between the two of them, with an auntie smile on her face.
Chen Shi began to take the tea and warm the cup. His movements were smooth and flowing, as if he had practiced it a thousand times.
Zhou Jingming and Chen Yu from the crosstalk club across the street were also attracted to watch the fun.
The senior student couldn't help but admire, "Classmate, your technique is so beautiful!"
However, she also realized that although this technique was beautiful, it had some subtle differences from several popular ancient tea ceremony schools.
Qiu Shi, who was standing next to him, was already holding his breath because of Pei Heng's comments. Seeing that Shen Shi attracted all the attention, he couldn't help but speak with a hint of sourness.
"It's just a show. This isn't the standard traditional tea ceremony technique at all."
"You're just trying to attract attention. Don't you know what the tea ceremony is?"
Chen Shiliangliang lifted his eyelids, and in order not to affect the taste, he did not interrupt the action.
Pei Heng couldn't bear to listen any longer, "Don't you know what politeness is?"
Zhou Jingming immediately interjected, shaking his head, "Mocking Shen Shi is just arrogant."
Chen Yu pushed his glasses up in tacit understanding, "If you make Pei Heng angry, your life or death is in jeopardy."
The members of the crosstalk club who were watching the performance immediately showed their support.
“Okay, okay, okay!”
Qiu Shi: ???
Qiu Shi, who was very concerned about his reputation, was so angry that his face turned blue. He turned to Pei Heng as if he had found the culprit.
"You think my tea isn't tasty, so you deliberately sent someone to mess with me. Forget about him, but if you have the guts, come and compete with me yourself!"
Pei Heng expressed his confusion, "Don't let your delusions of persecution fool you. It's not my fault if the food doesn't taste good."
Qiu Shi was choked and his breath was stuck in his chest, and his face turned red.
Under Pei Heng's vigilant gaze, he actually took out his cell phone, and then...
He turned around and ran to a corner to make a phone call.
Zhou Jingming, who had already rolled up his sleeves, was shocked. "Where is he going?"
Pei Heng's mouth twitched, "...Call the police?"
The senior from the Tea Art Club frowned and said to Pei Heng and the others, "Qiu Shi was forced into our club by Minister Xue. He must have gone to complain. Minister Xue is... a bit protective of his own people. If this gets out of hand, it's probably not going to end well."
She was a little speechless. She had originally wanted to trick the two handsome junior students into joining the tea art club.
"Who is Xue Shen?" Pei Heng asked without feeling uneasy.
Chen Yu lowered his head and asked around in various gaming groups, "Xue Shen, the head of the Student Union's Publicity Department, is said to be a relative of a school director. He has quite a background."
At this time, Shen Shi's tea was finally brewed.
The clear tea soup is poured into the white porcelain cup, and the aroma is elegant, which makes people feel relaxed and happy just by smelling it.
Shen Shi personally picked up a lamp and handed it to Pei Heng, "Try it?"
Pei Heng took it, blew on the hot air, and took a sip.
The tea was warm and smooth in his mouth. Pei Heng narrowed his eyes and said, "It tastes good."
He quickly finished the small cup.
Seeing Pei Heng satisfied, Shen Shi felt as if his heart was soaked in warm water, and he poured him another cup.
Pei Heng held the cup, completely immersed in the taste of the good tea, and all the unhappiness he had just felt was washed away.
Just as Pei Heng was enjoying his second cup of tea, Qiu Shi finally called his backer Xue Shen over.
Xue Shen frowned and followed Qiu Shi impatiently.
Qiu Shi pointed at Pei Heng who was leisurely drinking tea, then turned to Xue Shen, "Brother Xue, it's them."
"You bullied me and even deliberately destroyed our club's place!"
Senior: “…”
No one is here to smash it, so stop talking nonsense!
Xue Shen frowned and looked at Pei Heng. He naturally recognized the new celebrity who was very popular on the forum.
He said with a sullen face, "My two juniors, it's not good for so many of you to bully Qiu Shi alone, right?"
Pei Heng put down his teacup, feeling it was ridiculous. "What you said makes me want to call the police."
Qiu Shi stiffened his neck and said, "I was born into a tea ceremony family and have been making tea since I was a child. What right do you have to say that my tea art is not good?!"
Zhou Jingming was enjoying the fun, "Wow! The tea making... isn't very good. But the tea art is really good."
Shen Shi ignored Qiu Shi's shouting, half blocking Pei Heng, and the invisible pressure dissipated when he looked at Xue Shen.
"Get out of the way."
Xue Shen didn't expect these two people to be so disrespectful. They refused to give up even after being offered a chance. "Are you sure you want to go against me? Goodbye..."
regret.
Before Xue Shen finished his threat, Pei Heng turned and left without even looking at him.
As if they were just air in the way.
Zhou Jingming spread his hands and shook his head at his fellow crosstalk club members, "You said people are mean, they just have to rush to cause trouble."
"you do not say!"
The students watching the fun around also burst into laughter.
Xue Shen: “…”
He stood there, his eyes somewhat gloomy.
Qiu Shi bit her lip, tugged at Xue Shen's sleeve, and cried, "Brother Xue..."
Xue Shen suppressed his anger and patted the back of Qiu Shi's hand. "Don't worry, I will let them know what the sky is high and the earth is thick."
The noise on the basketball court was left behind.
Shen Shi and Pei Heng walked side by side on the tree-lined avenue, the shadows of the trees swaying in the wind.
Shen Shi turned his head to look at him and asked softly, "You weren't angry just now, were you?"
"No." Pei Heng shook his head, even a little cheerfully, "You make delicious tea."
Pei Heng rarely praises others.
But when he glanced sideways, Shen Shi didn't look very happy, and he looked at him with a very complicated look.
Pei Heng really didn't want to admit that the emotion he read out was pity, "Chen Shi, what strange things are you thinking about."
"I was thinking about buying a teahouse for you, but I felt that a teahouse alone wasn't enough."
Shen Shi gently held Pei Heng's fingers, couldn't help but squeezed them, and said, "But we are still in school now, it's not convenient, so I'll make it for you."
Wait until he wins the battle for the Shen family's property, and then start to buy it.
Pei Heng tried hard to recall that the Pei family should not have gone bankrupt yet.
He is not at the point where he needs to be taken care of by Shen Shi.
But you can make tea.
Pei Heng's brows were filled with lazy joy, and his profile was silhouetted against the shadows of the trees in midsummer, looking so handsome that people couldn't take their eyes off him.
Shen Shi was still looking at him, tentatively placing his clenched hand on the side of his face.
Pei Heng blinked, and his fingertips shrank and touched Shen Shi’s face.
Then he remembered the kiss on the back of the hand in the classroom that day.
"Chen Shi." Pei Heng couldn't tell what he was thinking, or maybe he simply wanted to call Chen Shi's name.
Shen Shi responded softly, almost addicted to the intimate contact with Pei Heng, rubbing his fingers with his cheek.
A few seconds later, the summer breeze started to blow.
Shen Shi placed a light kiss on Pei Heng's palm.
Pei Heng lowered his eyes and inexplicably felt that a soft spot in his chest was touched.
