Kyoto kisses her

Chapter 22 Boss Yun even personally entertained me?
A man dressed in a white shirt and black trousers stood on the steps at the entrance. He was tall and straight, and when he looked up, his cold and dark eyes could not hide his sharpness. His shirt fluttered in the wind, and his face was extremely gloomy.

Mrs. Li's face turned deathly pale with fright, and she stammered, "Mr. Su... Mr. Su."

When she said those words, she never thought that the person involved would hear them. Now that she suddenly saw Su Mingyan, she no longer dared to speak rudely, let alone her previous aggressive demeanor.

Su Mingyan casually stepped across the threshold, one hand in his pocket, his cold gaze sweeping over her. In just one glance, a chilling sense of oppression washed over her. "Who were you talking about just now?"

His voice was calm and indifferent, yet it sent a chill down one's spine for no apparent reason.

Mrs. Li wanted to explain, but when she met Su Mingyan's sharp eyes, she immediately stopped speaking, as if someone had grabbed her throat. She couldn't say anything and stammered helplessly, "I...I..."

Su Mingyan ignored her stuttering, twitched the corners of his mouth, and said in a deep voice with a hint of coldness and mockery, "Don't you need to apologize?"

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Li clenched her fists, glancing at Su Ruoyun out of the corner of her eye, her eyes filled with resentment. However, with Su Mingyan standing beside her, she had no choice but to bow down and give a standard ninety-degree bow. "I'm sorry, boss lady, I was too excited just now and said some harsh words. Please forgive me."

Su Ruoyun responded indifferently, then said, "I will dismiss that tea master. As for other matters, I can't interfere any further."

Mrs. Li blushed, awkwardly smoothed her long, wavy hair with her hand, nodded to Su Mingyan, and then, in her high heels, hurried out of the front yard as if fleeing.

Once the woman had disappeared from sight, the brother and sister left the front yard.

Along the winding corridor, wisteria vines line both sides, their inflorescences hanging among the green leaves and tendrils. The pale purple flower spikes cascade down like waterfalls, swaying in the wind and emitting a faint fragrance.

Sunlight streamed down, casting dappled shadows that danced across the corridor, with a few playful rays landing on Su Ruoyun's porcelain-white cheeks and shimmering back and forth.

She casually picked a wisteria flower from the side, picked out the butterfly-shaped buds, and played with them absentmindedly in her hand.

Seeing this, Su Mingyan slowed his pace, placed his hands on his belt, and still retained a trace of the coldness from before in his eyes. He spoke slowly, "You're not planning to explain? Let them continue to misunderstand like this."

He arrived at a time that was neither too early nor too late, and he listened to the latter part of what was said.

As soon as she finished speaking, Su Ruoyun exclaimed "Huh?" and turned to look at Su Mingyan. "You were the one who bribed me with money in the first place, and now that you're going to start blind dates, you're ignoring me. How can you do this? I haven't even crossed the bridge yet, and you're already secretly starting to dismantle the planks over there."

In the business world, there is no shortage of women. Even if you don't accept them, there will always be people who want to give them to you, whether openly or secretly. Su Mingyan has refused many times, but it hasn't stopped them from having these ideas.

In early February, the "Yichuan Tobacco" teahouse opened. Su Ruoyun asked Su Mingyan to help promote it. After some strange rumors started circulating, the number of women sent to the teahouse decreased, and people started going there to "curry favor" with the teahouse, hoping to get their names listed and make Su Mingyan remember them.

Coincidentally, Su Ruoyun lacked initial funds at that time, so Su Mingyan made an agreement with his younger sister that he would give her the money without explanation.

“Unilateral breach of contract comes at a price.” Su Ruoyun shook her head playfully, her ponytail gently brushing against her neck and swaying back and forth a few times, her smile mischievous, her words carrying a hidden meaning.

Su Mingyan pinched the bridge of her nose with her long fingers, feeling helpless. She understood what her sister meant and found it both funny and exasperating. "Tell me, how much money do you want?"

Su Ruoyun tilted her head back, glanced around at the surroundings, and pointed to a blank spot in the courtyard. "It's not much, I just want to tidy up that piece of land."

"Okay, go find Peng Ran later and ask him to take pictures of any flowers or plants you want to buy."

Su Mingyan made the final decision, and then brought up another topic, "She just insulted you like that, weren't you angry?"

Su Ruoyun was pampered at home since childhood. As a daughter of the Su and Ming families, she naturally possessed the temperament of a noblewoman. He had expected Su Ruoyun to retort to the foul language just now, but to his surprise, she let the other party speak. Su Mingyan finally couldn't stand it anymore and spoke up.

However, Su Ruoyun was surprisingly open-minded about this matter and didn't care. "Isn't this how business is? Haven't those old men on the board of directors ever scolded you?"

Upon hearing this, Su Mingyan fell silent. It wasn't just cursing; he went even further, slamming his fist on the table and smashing chairs as he spoke…

"When you come back and promote this for me again, to ride the last wave of traffic, I'll clarify everything at once."

All that could be heard was Su Mingyan saying, "Good wine needs no bush."

Su Ruoyun retorted with reason and evidence, "With the east wind, the aroma of the wine will spread even faster."

She couldn't use anyone else's name, so she could only rely on Su Mingyan's 'fame'. Teahouses are notorious for their extravagance, and connections are essential.

Su Mingyan's smile widened, his expression one of indulgence and persuasion. "You've got a whole bunch of twisted logic to back up your arguments. Are you leaving?"

I'm going home for dinner tonight.

Su Ruoyun crossed her arms and glanced at her watch. "There's one more customer. We'll have to wait another half hour."

Huo Jingcheng set the time for 3 to 5 o'clock, and it's only 4:30 now.

As she spoke, she walked to the end of the winding corridor, took a few steps down a few steps, and stopped in front of the door of the east wing. "Anyway, you know the way, so I won't take you there."

……

As soon as Su Ruoyun entered the room, she saw Huo Jingcheng leaning against the white wall with his back to the window.

He was relaxed and at ease, his gaze lingering on the exquisite wood carvings on the window frame. Hearing footsteps approaching from afar, he looked out to follow the sound and met Su Ruoyun's eyes.

Su Ruoyun compared his position with the scene in the corridor and realized that he must have seen it.

"Mr. Huo."

Huo Jingcheng withdrew his long arm from the windowsill, then walked back to the tea table and sat down opposite Su Ruoyun.

His long, slender fingers tapped lightly on the rosewood tea table, seemingly casually. Suddenly, he asked, "Does Boss Yun know about the relationship between me and President Su?"

Su Ruoyun paused slightly, her hand holding the purple clay teapot with the handle, the pause fleeting before she resumed her previous action. While filling Huo Jingcheng's enamel teacup with water, she carefully chose her words, saying, "I have heard some rumors."

Huo Jingcheng raised his eyebrows, revealing a pair of typical peach blossom eyes. When he smiled, the corners of his eyes naturally turned upwards, giving him an inexplicable roguish charm. The curve of his lips revealed a playful and teasing tone.

"Mr. Yun knew about my relationship with President Su, yet she still personally entertained me?"
