Chapter 122 Looking Northward

"Minmin, that kid left?"

Five minutes after Shen Lang left, Zhao Min returned home and found that Qin Yanluo had already left.

Zhao Jianguo looked at Zhao Min and said unhappily.

Zhao Min nodded and said, "Yes, he left."

"Minmin, this kid has ill intentions, envies talented people, and is detestable. You shouldn't interact with him too much in the future."

After hearing Zhao Min's words, Zhao Jianguo said angrily.

"Dad, don't worry, I know."

Zhao Min said, "Originally, I invited him, and I felt a bit guilty when he left. I wanted to give him a ride. But at the door, he actually said that my sister's recovery was just an illusion and she would relapse and die in three hours. In my anger, I chased him away."

"I never expected him to be such a despicable person. I misjudged him."

Upon hearing Zhao Min's words, Zhao Jianguo, his wife, and Zhao Shihua were all furious.

In their hearts, everyone blacklisted Shen Lang.

"Alright, it's a good thing Shihua is awake. Don't let a despicable person ruin your mood."

Zhao Jianguo, as the head of the family, said, "It's been a long time since our family has gathered. This morning, let's go to Wangbei Teahouse for morning tea together."

"Okay—"

Zhao Jianguo's proposal was unanimously agreed upon by everyone.

Half an hour later, the Zhao family went out.

At this time, Shen Lang also arrived at the entrance of Nanling First High School and got into his car.

Thinking that there was nothing else to do, Shen Lang started the car, ready to go back to the villa to sleep and watch dramas.

However, the moment the car started, Shen Lang's phone rang.

Shen Lang took out his phone and saw that the caller was Gu Qinghan. He immediately swept away his discomfort and answered the phone with a smile, saying, "Sister, good morning."

"Brother, good morning."

Although he couldn't see Gu Qinghan's face, Gu Qinghan's tone was full of joy as she said this. "Sister, why are you suddenly calling me?"

"It's nothing, I just wanted to ask you for tea and introduce someone to you."

Gu Qinghan said with a smile, "Brother, where are you? I'll drive over to pick you up, and then we'll go for tea together."

"Introduce someone to me?"

Shen Lang was slightly surprised when he heard this and said, "Who do you want to introduce me to?"

"It's a secret for now. You'll know when you get here."

Gu Qinghan was very mysterious.

"Can I bring someone?"

Shen Lang suddenly thought of Shi Qingxuan, who seemed to have woken up too early at breakfast and didn't eat much. He asked.

"Are you talking about Wang Yuyan's 'cousin'?"

Gu Qinghan said with a playful smile, "If you want to bring her, you can. After all, we're just having tea, there's nothing to be reserved about."

"Okay, send me the address of the teahouse. I'll go pick her up now and then drive over."

With Gu Qinghan's permission, Shen Lang said and hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Shen Lang dialed the landline in the villa's living room.

"Hello, who is it?"

Within two seconds of the call connecting, Wang Yuyan's voice came from the other end.

"I noticed you woke up too early this morning and didn't eat well at breakfast. I'll take you out for tea later. Get ready, I'm coming back to pick you up now."

Shen Lang got straight to the point and said.

"Take me for tea?"

Wang Yuyan, who was watching TV and doing yoga in the living room, smiled and said, "Okay, I'll wait for you to pick me up."

Shen Lang could actually notice that she hadn't eaten well at breakfast and wanted to take her for tea. Wang Yuyan was in a very good mood.

Half an hour later, Shen Lang returned to the villa, and Wang Yuyan had already changed her clothes.

Wang Yuyan was still wearing snow-white clothes, her three thousand strands of black hair gently tied with a white ribbon. She wore no makeup, but her captivating beauty was enough to make the beauty of any woman in the world dim.

This wasn't the first time Shen Lang had seen Wang Yuyan, but each time he saw her, he found her more beautiful.

As the song lyric goes, she was originally a carefree immortal from heaven, untouched by the mundane world.

"Brother Shen, where are you taking me for tea?"

Seeing Shen Lang return, Wang Yuyan immediately stepped forward and affectionately hugged his arm, saying.

"Wangbei Teahouse—"

Shen Lang took out his phone, glanced at the address Gu Qinghan had sent, and said.

"Brother Shen, did you say that correctly? Is it really Wangbei Teahouse?"

Upon hearing Shen Lang's words, Wang Yuyan was surprised and said.

"What's wrong with Wangbei Teahouse? It's just a teahouse?"

Shen Lang was a little confused by Wang Yuyan's shock and asked.

"Brother Shen, Wangbei Teahouse is indeed a teahouse, but this teahouse is not simple."

Wang Yuyan said, "At Wangbei Teahouse, there is a maiden in red as vibrant as blood, as beautiful as a celestial being. With just a zither, she can play heavenly music."

"Beautiful?"

"Knows how to play the zither?"

"That's all?"

Upon hearing Wang Yuyan's words, Shen Lang said, "If we're talking about beauty, there probably isn't anyone as beautiful as you in this world. And if we're talking about knowing how to play the zither, then probably no one understands it better than I do."

"Brother Shen, you know how to play the zither?"

Although Wang Yuyan had never met the maiden in red, she had absolute confidence in her own beauty.

There was absolutely no one else in this world as beautiful as her.

What surprised her was that Shen Lang actually knew how to play the zither.

"Of course—"

Shen Lang smiled and said, "When I was eighteen, I sat on the peak of a mountain, with a zither and a song, and attracted thousands to come and pay homage."

"Even though you're bragging, I'll pretend to believe you."

Wang Yuyan smiled and said, "Let's set off now. Take me to see that maiden in red, as vibrant as blood and as beautiful as a celestial being, and listen to her play the zither."

"I'm really not bragging, I really know how to play the zither."

Shen Lang looked at Wang Yuyan and said, "If you don't believe me, I'll compete with that maiden in red. Then you'll know who plays better."

"Alright, I believe you. Let's go now."

Bragging, Shen Lang was definitely bragging. Wang Yuyan would never believe that a bumpkin like Shen Lang, who came down from the mountains, could play the zither, let alone play it so well that thousands of birds would come to listen.

Shen Lang knew Wang Yuyan didn't believe him, but he didn't explain further.

Humph, Shen Lang would find an opportunity to show off in front of Wang Yuyan and let her know how wrong her assumption was.

Soon, the two of them went out, and Shen Lang drove towards Wangbei Teahouse.

Half an hour later, when Shen Lang drove Wang Yuyan to the entrance of Wangbei Teahouse according to the navigation.

The moment they arrived at Wangbei Teahouse, both Shen Lang and Wang Yuyan were so stunned that they couldn't speak.

An ancient building, hundreds of meters high, covering an area of three thousand square meters, was magnificent.

On the two eighteen-meter-high pillars at the entrance of the tall building, a powerful couplet was written.

Upper couplet: Heaven is a chessboard, stars are pieces, who dares to play?

Lower couplet: Earth is a zither, roads are strings, who can play?
