Zhang Zian had been stunned for almost ten seconds. It took a while before his brain that seemed to be stoned was finally able to react to the situation.

“Ah... what’s that... I am Zhang Zian.”

He is incoherent, and this is normal – her appearance, her dress, her calm composure... She was like the lady who stayed on the moon decided to come down to earth and land on the top of Mt. Hidden Fog. The most important thing is that she claims to be his blind date. Waves after waves of astonishment kept on hitting him hard.

“I am late. I am really sorry to make you late.” She apologized once again.

“No, no. I didn’t wait long. Besides, you weren’t late.”

This is not him trying to be polite. Although he didn’t bother to take out his mobile phone to see the time, he had an estimation in his heart. Even if she was late, she would at most be late for a minute or two. This is not a city with convenient transport. A date on a mountain that requires some climbing; being a few minutes late does not count as late.

“Well, the fog is big here, let’s go in and have a cup of tea and talk.” She raised her finger and pointed at the tea house. “I heard that the tea in this tea house is good. I have long wanted to taste it first, but it is rather boring and lonely for one person to enjoy tea. Come, let’s just take the opportunity of this date to try their tea and see if it is as good as it is rumored to be.”

Zhang Zian wanted to cry out his difficulty and share that he knows nothing about tea appreciation. Even if he had the best tea in his mouth, it is tantamount to wasting it. He foresees that he will be unable to sustain a conversation with her later. Should he, whilst she is not paying attention, ask to go to the washroom and do a Baidu search online?

She has already moved towards the tea shop. He can’t just stand here and so rather reluctantly followed her.

The old man who pats his shoulder earlier on the way up, encouraging him to keep walking, now once again brushed against his shoulder and whispered, “Young people are so full of potential! So envious”

They don’t know his relationship with the girl, but since a single man and a single lady is at a tea house on the 11th, it must mean that they have a somewhat unique relationship together. Though they claim to be envious in a light-hearted manner, they really do indeed feel envious of the two. Although it is not so much for themselves but for their children and grandchildren, they were, by now, old people who have seen it all. They can tell, from the demeanor of Zhang Zian and the girl that they are not yet familiar with each other.

A few old men have secretly made up their minds. Tomorrow...No, throughout the Golden Week, they have to bring their own single sons and grandsons to climb the mountain!

Zhang Zian is unaware that a group of young men are about to say goodbye to their afternoon naps because of him. He had a lot of thoughts running through his mind as he followed Zhuang Xiaodie into the tea house.

There are only six tables and chairs in the tea house. The female host who came in earlier took up a table, and the other five tables were empty.

It may be that the dehumidifier is concealed when the decoration is completed. The indoor air humidity is nice and comfortable. It was not as humid as outside.

The interior of the tea house is fresh and elegant, and the tables and chairs are separated by splash screens to provide privacy. There were a few windows, albeit kept to the minimum. The entire interior decoration is that of a classic Chinese teahouse set in the olden days. If one is to nip pick, the shop merely lacks a classical beauty to serve the tea.

Today, the only shortcoming is made up for.

When Zhuang Xiaodie stepped into the tea house, the whole room seemed to be illuminated by her – it was not an illusion or an exaggeration, but her clothes seemed to be a brocade texture, and it was suddenly illuminated by the light in the room.

The shopkeeper and her tea servers are both females. When they saw her, their degree of shock was not any lesser than when Zhang Zian first met her. Little Snow has not yet sat down as well and was busy shooting the interior decoration details for her audience. Only now did she notice everyone’s expressions, and she too was equally stunned.

If Zhuang Xiaodie was wearing ordinary clothes, then even though she is pretty, the impression she creates on people will not be as strong. The point is that her clothes are simply stunning, and it looked perfect on her. Both her beauty and the fitting dress creates a duo combination of perfection.

The audience in the live broadcast room was even more shocked and hurriedly ask Little Snow to take a closer shot. This level of beauty is not something that can be easily encountered.

Zhuang Xiaodie seems to have not noticed their gaze. She randomly chose a table and asked Zhang Zian. “How about sitting here?”

“Yes, that’s fine.” Zhang Zian nodded, hesitating about whether to pull out a chair for her to sit down like how a Western gentleman does. However, this is Western etiquette, if as a Chinese, he copies such a move, given that this is the first time they meet, might it seem like he is trying too hard? In other words, is he licking her boots so early on in the game?

However, as he hesitated, she had already readily settled down herself. It saves him from having to make a decision on what to do.

She even had the perfect posture when she was seated. It was as if she was grown up following Chinese classical etiquette since she was a child. In addition, every move is natural and not deliberate.

The female shopkeeper pushed her waitress a little, and this helped her to snap out of her thoughts. She quickly took the menu over and stared at her without blinking. She asked.”Miss, You are so beautiful... Which store did you buy your clothes from?”

Zhang Zian: “...”

“Cough!”

The female shopkeeper coughed a little and glared at her waitress. She meant: Is it your business to ask about where people buy their clothes? I meant for you to ask them to order tea and to serve them!

The waitress was also very embarrassed, and hurriedly gave a smile and handed over the menu. She said. “Ah! Sorry! Because your clothes are really amazing, so I got curious and about it... then let’s proceed. What do you want to order?”

Zhuang Xiaodie smiled slightly, turned her body slightly, and offered the menu to Zhang Zian. “Please help me to order. As for my clothes, I didn’t buy it. I made it myself. Does it look good on me?”

“Did it yourself? Wow, Wow, Wow, Wow! That is simply amazing!” The waiter was so impressed that she started been incoherent to the level of stuttering.

Zhang Zian is also very surprised. If this dress is done by herself, it must be extremely difficult and time-consuming. If it is true, this explains her ingenuity, and also shows that she has a lot of time.

The menu was given to him. He wanted to let her choose, but she had already discussed the style and how her dress was made with the waiter. Although he does not understand how to make such a traditional dress, judging from the expression of the waitress, she seems to be an expert on this subject matter.

No choice. He opened the menu and planned to browse through it first.

At first, he didn’t think much when he had looked at it. When he opened the menu, his eyeballs almost popped out!

The cheapest jasmine tea and rose tea are 388 dollars a pot!

The cheapest refreshment is 588 dollars per serving!

As for the other teas and refreshments, they are easily in the thousand dollars range!

He stared at the price tag and looked at it several times, wondering if he had missed the decimal point.

However, the so-called decimal point does not exist at all.

Zhang Zian slowly raised his head and stared at Zhuang Xiaodie’s side face and re-examined her.

Some of the hot, excited moods that he had earlier had now slowly but surely turned cold. He had new speculation on what her identity is. Might she be a gold digger?

She deliberately set the meeting place to be here. She must definitely be taking the opportunity to make me spend a lot of money!
