Chapter 1414

In the morning, after Baili Xia got out of bed, she washed up and went downstairs.

By this time, it was already late in the morning.

She was exhausted from the past two days and always felt like she hadn’t slept enough.

Thinking about it carefully, these days…

seemed like she was worn out by someone.

Hmm—how wicked!

As Baili Xia walked toward the stairs, she saw Bei Tianyou sitting on the sofa in the hall.

He was holding a cup of tea, sipping it lightly, calm and relaxed, with an easy-going demeanor.

At a glance, Baili Xia felt he had suddenly turned back into his former self.

It seemed his body had never been frail, and there was no sign of illness in his expression.

“Brother You.”

Upon entering the hall, Baili Xia greeted Bei Tianyou first.

Bei Tianyou looked up at her, nodded calmly, and said, “You’re up.”

He extended his hand and pointed to the sofa opposite, then continued, “Come, try the tea I’ve just developed.”

Baili Xia was slightly surprised, stepping toward him and asking, “Brother You, do you know how to make tea?”

In her heart, Bei Tianyou had always been a supreme master of pharmaceuticals.

Talking about tea, she would believe he knew how to drink it but couldn’t imagine he could make it.

“Don’t believe it? Come, have a taste.”

Bei Tianyou had already poured a cup and pushed it toward Baili Xia.

Baili Xia picked it up and brought the teacup close to her nose to smell.

The faint aroma filled her lungs, instantly making them feel refreshed.

After a small sip, Baili Xia felt that amid the refreshing sweetness, there was a hint of herbal taste.

“Delicious.” Baili Xia couldn’t help but praise, “Brother You’s tea is really good.”

She couldn’t resist taking another sip, finishing the small teacup in one go.

Putting down the cup, she slowly said, “I haven’t heard that Bei Miao produces tea leaves. Brother You, what kind of tea is this?”

Bei Tianyou didn’t immediately respond, seeming to consider how to answer.

Baili Xia smiled slightly and said, “Sorry if I shouldn’t have asked.”

Before asking, Baili Xia hadn’t realized this might be a trade secret.

The tea was just too tasty, prompting her to ask without thinking.

Bei Tianyou’s lips curved slightly, with a half-smile, and he said calmly, “It’s okay if I tell you.”

He looked at the fragrant tea in the cup, “The soil of Bei Miao is unique, known for producing medicinal herbs.

It has been known that good tea can’t be grown here.”

“This tea is actually a kind of medicinal herb, which can be made into tea leaves through a special harvesting and processing technique.”

“So, this tea has the light scent of green tea along with a subtle herbal flavor.”

“Naturally, since it’s medicine, it also has a soothing effect on the lungs.”

Bei Tianyou explained the origin of the tea leaves to Baili Xia but didn’t mention the specific herbs or processing techniques.

In that sense, it wasn’t really revealing any secrets.

Baili Xia felt inexplicably grateful, not expecting Bei Tianyou to tell her about these things.

“I see, Brother You, you’re amazing to be able to make tea this way.”

Baili Xia poured herself another cup and took a sip before looking at Bei Tianyou to discuss the main topic.

“Brother You, do you have any thoughts on the competition?”

If Bei Tianyou was still as weak as he had been a few days ago, Baili Xia might not have dared to ask.

But now, Bei Tianyou’s condition had significantly improved, and he seemed to have fully regained his previous confident and ethereal state.

Baili Xia believed that now, nothing could defeat him.

Bei Tianyou looked at her, his voice softened.

“I’ve already discussed with the Old Madam; there will be some changes to the competition rules.”
