Chapter 64 Chen Yu, Are You Still Human?

He finished cleansing his feet.The two entered the villa.

Chen Yu looked around and noticed the decor of the modest villa was quite simple.

Besides the essential refrigerator, table, cushions, and mirror, there were no extra pieces of furniture.

"Doesn't little sister have any servants at home?" Chen Yu wondered.

"I don't like being taken care of," the young girl said calmly, walking up the wooden stairs to the second floor.

"Then what about your meals?"

"I cook for myself."

Watching the girl leave, Chen Yu touched his stubble.

Granted, he had met few Transcendents. But this girl seemed to live the most "shabby" lifestyle among them...

About five minutes later.

The girl changed into a set of lightweight pajamas, descended the stairs, and sat cross-legged on the only cushion in the living room, skillfully and leisurely tinkering with the tea set.

First, she took some tea leaves stored in a jade container and carefully observed them in front of her, selecting the best and placing them on a piece of Xuan paper.

Then, she moistened another piece of Xuan paper and covered the tea leaves with it.

Next: adding water, boiling water, washing the cup, warming the cup... Her movements were graceful and her posture, erect.

A night breeze blew through the courtyard, lifting her soft long hair. In this atmosphere of respectful silence, she seemed particularly relaxed and ethereal.

Soon, the water was boiling.

The girl remained seated, waiting a few minutes before dipping her jade-like fingers into the scalding water to test the temperature. Only then did she uncover the Xuan paper and place the small bunch of tea leaves into the water.

The tea leaves slowly unfurled.

A wisp of steam, carrying a faint fragrance, filled the room.

You could see the snowflakes dancing and the leaves forming buds. The clouds steamed, and halos spread, as if spring painted the sea bottom.

The girl was unhurried, her eyes shining.

She stared at the tea cup, unblinking, as if she were performing a devout ritual...

Chen Yu also remained silent, not wishing to shatter this beautiful moment.

Only one thought echoed in his mind...

'Is this what they call...'

'A girl's prayer?'

No one knew how much time had passed.

Finally, the water was at the right temperature.

The girl picked up the tea cup, poured out two-thirds of the tea water, leaving only one-third, then added fresh water.

With a light sip, she took a small drink, then closed her eyes contentedly.

Only her long eyelashes could be seen, trembling slightly...

"Gurgle."

Chen Yu swallowed his saliva, feeling somewhat envious.

"..."

Moistening her lips, the girl opened her mouth again, drank half of what was in the cup, and swallowed slowly. Then she opened her eyes, turned her head toward Chen Yu, and asked, "Would you like some?"

"Then I won't be polite," Chen Yu's eyes lit up as he immediately darted to the bamboo tea table, excitedly rubbing his hands. "That... How should I drink this? What's the process? What steps?"

"Does drinking tea... need any steps?" the girl was bewildered.

"Then what's with all the fussing you were doing?"

"...I just think that drinking it this way tastes better."

"Oh!" Chen Yu suddenly understood, grabbed a handful of tea leaves, placed them in the cup, then added water, leaned in, opened his mouth, and guzzled it down.

The girl: "..."

The girl: "You at least need to let the tea brew..."

"I think it tastes better this way," Chen Yu swallowed the tea, smacked his lips, and spit out a tea leaf, which landed on the girl's face.

The girl: "..."

Chen Yu: "Sister, there seems to be a mosquito on your face."

"...Maybe," the girl swung her jade arm, and the tea leaf on her face disappeared.

After that, she stopped conversing with Chen Yu and sipped her tea on her own.

Chen Yu, imitating her for a while, found it uninteresting and suddenly asked, "Is this how you spend every day, sister? Dancing during the day and drinking tea at night?"

"Dancing?" the girl tilted her head.

"Oh, practicing boxing."

"That's right," the girl nodded.

"Don't you find it boring?"

"Not at all," the girl put down her teacup, turned her head, and her clear eyes gazed into the starry night sky: "It's quite fulfilling."

"That's all faux fulfillment!"

Chen Yu stood up.

He was about to show his wolf-like fangs.

"Have you ever heard a saying?"

"What saying?"

"You could have endured the darkness, unless you had never seen the sun."

With that, Chen Yu leaped like a monkey, pulled out a thick scroll from his bosom, and with a "bang", placed it on the tea table, "Sister is now going to find some real fun for you. Let you understand what 'fulfillment' really means."

"What's this?" The girl gently stroked her teacup and looked curiously at the scroll.

"A map of Yan!"

Chen Yu uttered the four characters forcefully and then slowly unrolled the scroll with a "rattle" and "rattle".

As he unrolled it about thirty centimeters, Chen Yu seemed to suddenly remember something, and stopped his motion to ask the girl, "By the way, how old are you, little sister?"

"Nineteen," the girl answered.

"Oh! Well, that's good." Chen Yu continued unrolling the scroll.

"Why do you ask that?" The girl was confused.

"It's nothing." Chen Yu brushed her off with a wave of his hand, "Just some complicated audit issues. You don't need to worry about it."

As time ticked by.

The map of Yan in Chen Yu's hands kept getting longer.

From one meter.

To five meters.

And then ten meters...

The girl had already stood up to help, but it was still "unrolling" without end.

"What kind of map is this? It's so long," the girl looked at Chen Yu with exasperation, "How long will it grow?"

"Almost there... almost there..."

"The tea table can't hold it anymore."

"You can put it on the floor, no problem."

"..."

"..."

"Rattle rattle rattle..."

"It seems like it's the end!"

Half a minute later, the girl perked up.

"That's right! It's the end!" Chen Yu excitedly sped up his actions.

Finally, the scroll of the Yan map was completely unrolled.

Revealing a small USB drive hidden inside...

"What's this?"

The girl, after "hard labor", was undoubtedly curious about the contents of the scroll, but good manners stopped her from touching it.

"This is called a USB drive." Chen Yu said as if holding a treasure, "Come on, repeat after me, USB drive!"

The girl: "..."

Chen Yu: "Come on, say it, USB drive!"

The girl: "...Yo... Yo Disk."

"That's right! USB drive!"

"Yo Disk!"

"Have you seen it before?" Chen Yu asked proudly.

The girl twirling a strand of hair, hesitated for a moment, "I... must have seen it, of course."

"But I guarantee, the treasures inside this USB drive, you've never seen," he glanced at the title above the girl's head and looked around, "Are there any other people in this mansion, like your bodyguards or something?"

"No." The girl was confused, "Are the files inside, classified?"

"Good that there's no one else. Bring the computer!"

The girl stood there, staring at Chen Yu for a long while, pondering, "If it's classified, I better not view such precious information."

"Don't be like that!" Chen Yu exclaimed with wide eyes, "It's not classified. Do you have a computer at home, little sister... What's with that look? As your sister, would I trick you..."

Full of doubts, the girl went out and found a laptop in the storage room.

She connected to the power, turned on the screen, pressed the start button, and inserted the USB drive.

In the operating system, a folder popped up immediately.

"Little sister, are you ready?" Chen Yu said to the girl seriously.

The girl sat back down at the tea table, found her teacup amid the "maps", and took a light sip, "Go ahead."

"Buckle up, because the speed is going to be really fast."

After that piece of advice, Chen Yu clicked on the folder.

Instantly, dozens more folders popped up within the folder.

They all had names.
