Cai Yan was a ripened woman, like a mimosa that closes instantly when touched.

When Su Tao moved closer to her, she subconsciously curled up with her brows slightly furrowed. At this moment, she didn’t even dare to breathe.

She realised that her heart was beating wildly at this moment. A long time ago, she was like any other woman that would have dreams that made her feel bashful.

In that dream, there was a blurred face kissing her in this matter. But naturally, this one was more realistic and impactful.

Not knowing how long later, the two of them separated as Su Tao looked at Cai Yan’s rosy cheeks with a smile.

“You’re a rogue!” Cai Yan suddenly said.

“Yeah, I’m a rogue!” Su Tao added, “Being a rogue is what I like to do best!”

After a brief pondering, he continued, “How can you describe me with just a rogue? You should add in a ‘super,’ at the front of it.”

“A super rogue?” Cai Yan burst into laughter and she could no longer hold it back. But after a brief pondering, she sighed, “I’m still not prepared!”

“Alright, I’ll wait for when you’re prepared!” Su Tao gently said and continued, “I won’t force you.”

“Why did your character suddenly change?” Cai Yan laughed.

Looking at her with curiosity, Su Tao smiled. “Hey, this has always been my character. Don’t look at me with such tenderness, or I might lose control.”

After a brief pause, he added, “Or do you want me to force myself on you during your period?” He then continued, “It won’t be good for your body!”

As expected, Su Tao managed to tell that she’s currently in her menstruation period. She pursed her lips together. “I can bear it!”

“My love for you isn’t that selfish. Since you can bear it, then I can also wait!” Su Tao shook his head.

After a brief pause, Cai Yan replied, “But I can use other methods to help you, if you can’t bear it!”

Caught in surprise by her words, a smile rose on the corner of Su Tao’s lips. “Why don’t we have a test and see if I can bear it?”

Cai Yan couldn’t hold back her laughter before she sighed, “So you want it!”

Shrugging his shoulders, Su Tao sourly replied, “I’m a man, and my thoughts will also run wild. Isn’t that normal?”

Taking a deep breath, Cai Yan responded, “Before we have a test, you have to answer me honestly. How far have you gone with Yan Jing, Lu Shimiao, Vera, Shui Junzhuo, Ni Jingqiu, and the woman next door! I guarantee that I won’t be angry as long as you’re honest with me!”

But how could Su Tao not tell that this was a trap?

Thus, he replied without any hesitation, “My relationship with them is pure, and my relationship with them isn’t on the same level as us!”

“Really?” Cai Yan asked with doubt.

“Absolutely!”

However, Su Tao did not swear this time around, since he knew that Cai Yan didn’t like him swearing all the time.

Nodding her head in satisfaction, “I’ll take your word for it, then.”

Inwardly, Su Tao sighed that Cai Yan was too kind. She obviously knew that he’s lying, but she didn’t want to expose him.

As Cai Yan stood up, she spun on the spot before she looked at Su Tao and smiled as she pointed in the direction of the room.

After a few seconds of being stunned, Su Tao finally understood Cai Yan’s hints. Was she asking him if they wanted to go to the room?

He immediately nodded his head and gave two punches out in the air, which made Cai Yan laugh.

But all of a sudden, Cai Yan’s face turned pale. Women were that troubled, especially during their period; they couldn’t even laugh a little harder.

Giving an apologetic smile to Su Tao, Cai Yan said, “I’ll go change my pad in the toilet, so you can wait for me in the room first!”

As a familiar ringtone rang out, a slender hand stretched out from the quilt and wandered around the small shelf beside the bed. Suddenly, the phone was accidentally pushed to the edge and fell on the floor with the battery coming out.

Rubbing her eyes, Cai Yan jabbed at Su Tao and helplessly said, “I seem to have dropped your phone!”

Opening his eyes, Su Tao looked at the naked Cai Yan beside him. When he recalled last night, he instantly felt a fire burning in his heart.

Letting out a yawn, Su Tao fixed his phone together before he looked at the number; it was a call from Xia Yu.

Looking at the time, it was 7 a.m., and usually, he should have returned home from his morning exercise by now.

“What’s the situation?” Su Tao yawned.

Xia Yu could hear that Su Tao still wasn’t awake, which he was surprised and asked, “You made another step further with Cai Yan?”

Glancing at the bashful Cai Yan beside him, Su Tao knew that he couldn’t speak the truth and responded, “What nonsense are you blabbering about? Speak, what is it?”

As Xia Yu chuckled, he replied, “I’m here to report to you about Ni Buqing’s situation. Yesterday, she invited Ye Yifeng to her spa, and Ye Yifeng still hasn’t returned.”

“What’s Ni Buqing and Ye Yifeng’s relationship?” Su Tao asked.

“They were enemies when they were young, and they’ve never come in contact before yesterday. Furthermore, I also noticed that Ni Buqing appeared at the spa last night!” Xia Yu reported.

Su Tao’s sixth intuition could tell him that something was going on, to which he said, “They must definitely be cooking a scheme! I have a close relationship with the Ni Family now, and I need to borrow their influence to open a branch in Beijing. So nothing can go wrong.”

Nodding his head, Xia Yu replied, “Understood, just leave this matter to me. You can prepare for the National Healer Selection with your mind at ease!”

When he hung up the call, Su Tao saw Cai Yan looking at him and asked, “What’s wrong? Did I say anything wrong?”

“Why didn’t you tell the truth to Xia Yu?” Cai Yan gently held onto Su Tao’s ear and continued, “We’ve already done that last night, so are you trying to shrink from your responsibility?”

Although his ear was hurting, Su Tao knew that Cai Yan was just joking with him, so he sourly smiled. “Am I not taking care of your reputation? If I tell him that you use your mouth…”

But before he could finish his sentence, the intense pain from his ear instantly interrupted him.

Letting go of his ear, Cai Yan furiously got off the bed and raged, “I won’t do that anymore!”

Seeing Cai Yan stomping into the washroom, Su Tao wryly smiled. The hearts of women truly cannot be predicted like the weather forecast!

After lying on the bed for a while, he suddenly grew curious about Cai Yan. When he came out, he saw that Cai Yan had already bought breakfast.

“The bun store is too popular, so I failed to get any with vegetables and meat fillings. I only managed to get some plain and bean paste ones, so just deal with it.” Cai Yan helplessly said.

It was rare that he didn’t have to take care of anyone and even had someone to take care of him. It felt pretty warm!

As Su Tao acknowledged, he went to wash up. When he came out of the bathroom, he saw Cai Yan setting the plain buns down, so he curiously asked, “Are you trying to murder buns?”

“You’ll know what I’m doing later!” Cai Yan smiled mysteriously.

Seeing that she’s becoming all mysterious, Su Tao first wore his clothes in the room. When he came out, he saw Cai Yan waving her hand in his direction with a smug look. “Come and try the breakfast that I’ve meticulously prepared for you!”

But when Su Tao went over, he was instantly speechless. So Cai Yan had sliced the bun in the middle and stuffed a slice of spam in it with ketchup. Isn’t this… a little too unique?

“How is it? Isn’t it appetising?” Cai Yan further explained, “As the saying goes, eat good in the morning; eat full for lunch; eat less for dinner. Breakfast is the energizer for the day, and I’m sure you will be filled with energy today!”

The look was really imaginative, in which Su Tao endured the urge to retch and took a bite at it. But to his surprise, the taste was pretty good, which he smiled. “I never expected that buns with luncheon meat would taste so good! You have a pretty good imagination there.”

Truth be told, food didn’t matter with the right partner. After all, the heart was all that matters.

After their breakfast, Cai Yan and Su Tao went to take a look at the shop that Ni Jingqiu had prepared for them. It was pretty well-located at the 3rd Circle with a mature estate nearby. Furthermore, there were also several shopping malls opposite the street. To be able to open a branch in this location was definitely beneficial for the Three Flavour Hall to enter the market.

After all, it held a significant meaning for the branch in Beijing; it’s equivalent to a flagship store. So regardless of the service or standards, it had to be at the highest.

The contract had already been signed, and the landlord had also handed the keys over. So Ni Jingqiu had been waiting here since morning and got her secretary to unlock the door.

“This was initially an herbal store, but the person-in-charge was suspected of illegal fundraising and fled. I wonder if you mind? If you do, then I can pick another location, but it won’t be as good as this one. As for this one, I can use it for another purpose.” An Qian explained the reason why this store was unused. After all, it’s located in such a good location. If it wasn’t for that incident, it wouldn’t be possible to find a suitable store in such a good location so easily.

“This will do!” Su Tao straightforwardly agreed. This store had two floors with an estimated square meter of 1,500.

“Generally, business talks about Feng Shui, but you don’t seem to be bothered about it!” Ni Jingqiu smiled.

“If you’re talking about Feng Shui, I also know a thing or two about it. This store is well-located in the north, facing the south. This is a prosperous Yang location, and as long as you make the right business here, money will roll.” Su Tao smiled as he shook his head.

“The one previously was an herbal store, and you’re planning to have a pharmacy. They’re both in the medical industry, so what’s the difference?” Ni Jingqiu asked out of curiosity.

“It’s completely different. An herbal store only sells products, while a pharmacy provides services. Products don’t have any soul, and they’re categorised under Yin. On the other hand, services have souls in them, so they’re Yang. This store is a prosperous Yang Location, and if you make an herbal store here, there will be a clash between the Yin and Yang. But if you’re opening a pharmacy, there won’t be any clash.” Su Tao smiled.

However, Ni Jingqiu couldn’t understand anything about Feng Shui and smiled. “If you’ve decided, then we will settle on this one.”

Thereafter, Cai Yan immediately started to take photos of the store for her to send to the designer for renovation. Although this store had been previously renovated, it still had to be redone to match the Three Flavour Hall’s style.
