Chapter 267: The Suit-Wearing Madman Who Broke the Door
Tea culture has a long and rich history.
Longjing tea (Dragon Well tea) is famous around the world, and there is also a Biluochun tea (green tea) that is especially loved by young people.
Biluochun tea leaves are thin and curly, covered in fine white hairs. The shape is tight and spiral, with a fresh and clean smell. The tea liquid is bright and clear.
Especially when you mix salted lemon with green tea, it's the perfect match.
As a polite host, Lin Yibai kept pouring tea, but she couldn’t keep up with how fast Xia Changyu was drinking.
She was clearly enjoying it a lot, but it was too embarrassing to admit it. She anxiously said, “Isn’t that enough? Seriously, what’s wrong with you? It’s the middle of the night, and you’re still drinking tea like this?”
Xia Changyu paused, gave a cold snort, and asked back, “You were the one who couldn't stop pouring the tea because you liked it so much. I am just drinking the tea you make, am I wrong?”
Lin Yibai snapped, “What kind of nonsense tea are you drinking? Do you even know anything about tea? This isn’t even tea anymore, you’re just chugging it down!”
Xia Changyu suddenly grabbed her hand. He saw it as a challenge, almost like a dare.
He felt she talked too much. She was clearly enjoying it, but her mouth was stubborn. What’s so hard about letting your boyfriend make you happy? Just focus on making the tea.
What is tea culture, really?
It’s the whole beautiful process of watching the tea master work, enjoying the environment, and slowly tasting the tea. An art form, not a race.
Xia Changyu took a deep breath and said firmly, “Just focus on making the tea. I will make you happy! You just need to brew it well. Why should you care if I sip it slowly or drink it fast?”
Lin Yibai was furious, “Stop licking it!”
If the situation weren’t so awkward right now, she honestly wished she could kick him out on the spot. Right now. Immediately. Just get out.
But then... a bigger problem appeared.
Tea is usually cooling, but newly roasted tea can cause too much heat in the body if you drink too much.
Xia Changyu started to feel dry and thirsty, showing signs of getting "heated up" from the tea, though he didn’t realize it himself.
Lin Yibai saw the way he looked and bit her lip in frustration. She mumbled under her breath.
“Are you done yet? I told you not to drink so much tea... but you didn’t listen. Now look, you’ve overheated!”
Xia Changyu: “?”
Lin Yibai got nervous and said, “What? Why aren’t you saying anything? Anyway, this isn’t my fault! I told you not to drink so much, you didn’t listen. So don’t blame me!”
Xia Changyu said, “With things like this... do you really think this has nothing to do with you?”
Then he stood up slightly and looked her straight in the eyes. He leaned in closer.
Lin Yibai’s eyes filled with fear as she pushed against his chest and stammered, “You... you... I... ugh! Don’t come any closer!”
Xia Changyu asked, “Why not?”
Lin Yibai turned her head, not daring to look at him, and said, “You’re acting like a thug right now… standing at someone’s door like this. And you’re asking me why? Do you really think a guy like you has the right to walk in?”
What was even going on?
Just a minute ago, they were drinking tea calmly, enjoying the mood. Now, suddenly, he had turned into some kind of madman, standing in front of her door, trying to come inside?
No way. Absolutely not.
Lin Yibai was both shocked and scared. She looked down and said quietly, “Um… maybe... maybe we should just keep drinking tea, okay? What do you think?”
Xia Changyu said, “I don’t care what you think.”
Lin Yibai: “Then what do you want?”
Xia Changyu replied, “I care about what I think...”
Right as he finished his words, Lin Yibai gasped. She couldn’t help but hit his arms twice, clearly panicking.
Why? How did things end up like this?
He looked like a gentle and well-mannered guy, but when he acted like a bad person, he turned into a suit-wearing thug.
If you're visiting someone’s house, shouldn’t you knock politely, wait for the lady of the house to agree, and then enter?
Why did he act like some gangster, breaking in before the door was even opened?
Gulp. She swallowed hard, feeling nervous.
Trying her best to stay calm, she said awkwardly, “Um, I... I think I suddenly need to use the bathroom, so I...”
Xia Changyu asked, “Are you scared?”
Scared? Me?
What kind of joke is that? How could Lin Yibai be scared?
But that wasn’t even the worst part yet.
Xia Changyu leaned down close to her ear and whispered, “I want to be with you too, Baiyi... Please, I’m begging you.”
...Would it still count if this “suit thug” politely knocked and asked to come in now?
Please, ma’am, I’m begging you. Just let me in for a bit...
At that moment, Lin Yibai was stunned. She felt like a grasshopper in autumn, already too weak to jump, but still trying to resist.
What now?
She turned her face away, not daring to look at him, and said, “Be gentle, okay?”
But wait. Was it really okay to let a guy like him inside?
Before she could think more—
It happened.
In the next moment, she felt torn apart.
Suit thug?! Get out of my house now!
It hurts so much! Who would’ve thought the first time would be this painful!
Lin Yibai felt like she’d just been beaten up after someone forced their way into her home. She could barely breathe, almost passed out.
She couldn’t fight back. A weak girl like her had no chance against a suit-wearing thug.
She felt bruised all over, like she was bleeding everywhere.
Just when Lin Yibai thought she was about to face endless torment—
She noticed something strange.
The thug, Xia Changyu, actually seemed a little nervous.
It was very clear that this was his first time being a “bad guy.”
His movements were clumsy and awkward. Even Lin Yibai couldn’t help but think, ‘This virgin boy, acting all tough earlier, hmph!’
Still, he was a bad guy. So she told herself, ‘Just grit your teeth and get through it.’
She decided to fight back if needed. If he challenged her, she’d go all the way.
But soon... she realized she was in a disadvantaged position here.
The bad guy was very tough, and it lasted quite a long time. On the other hand, because this was her first time, so it hurt a lot, she couldn’t keep going without breaks like this.
Especially at the very end—
Lin Yibai blacked out.
She felt as if invisible waves were pouring into her, washing over her until she lost consciousness.
