However …

Lin Xuecha did not understand this man from the dynasty. After all, he had lived in a monastery for ten years, and the memories of his past life only told her that sometimes men are more cunning than women.

Su Nanxing was the same as her, both of them had just returned to the Capital City so they did not have much interaction before. She did not understand Su Nanxing's character nor could she fathom his conduct and behaviour.

In terms of just this alone, she was already far inferior to this man.

For example …

When a man taught her about tea sets, he would intentionally or unintentionally whisper into her ear to introduce the functions of the tea set. As for her …

The only thing she could do was to freeze her body and suppress the burning hot sensation in her earlobes. It was not because of her. As a doctor, she knew very well that this was human instinct.

She just did not have anyone she liked, but that did not mean that she was cold and aloof. Lin Xuecha could only put aside everything and concentrate in listening to learn.

For example, when a man taught her how to take out tea, he would gently hold her tender and fair hands and scoop after spoonful of tea.

She could only tighten her body and follow his hand movements. Not only was she unable to have any thoughts towards him, she also had to obediently listen to his advice. She even had to be grateful to him and treat her with complete disregard for the past …

After learning to make tea for the entire afternoon, Lin Xuecha deeply understood what it meant to be scared witless, and what it meant to be...

Seductive beauty …

No one could resist a beauty, so Lin Xuecha wasn't surprised.

However, she was more rational. To her, beauties were something that could only be viewed from afar and not mocked.

Su Nanxing was even more beautiful than a woman, her beauty was like a painting, her skills in the art of tea were not inferior, her movements were smooth and graceful.

Her gaze was fixated on Su Nanxing's body, and the color of her eyes had already been dyed with the light of admiration.

She had to admit that her master was indeed a powerful figure.

Su Nanxing casually glanced at her, "Put away your tea set, it's time for us to leave."

"Yes."

Lin Xuecha quickly retracted her gaze from his body. She retracted her gaze, lowered her head and washed the tea set, then placed it away.

She didn't know that at a place out of her sight, the man beside her curled his lips and smiled sinisterly.

That smile was as light as the wind, and as secretive as one could be.

After exiting the Tasting Tea Pavilion, Lin Xuecha raised his head and looked at the sky. The sun had set and the blue sky had darkened.

So it turned out that she was completely unaware of the time that had passed …

Lin Xuecha frowned. She chased after Su Nanxing and said:

"Thank you for your guidance today, your highness. I can't thank you enough."

She paused and pondered for a moment, then said, "I don't know if Your Highness is willing, but I would like you to bring back the book I read this morning. Snow Tea would like to read it carefully, I ask for Your Highness' permission."

"No rush."

The corners of Su Nanxing's mouth curled into an extremely faint smile. "This king will pass you the tea list today. First, you should memorize the Way of Tea.

"But Your Highness …"

The corner of Lin Xuecha's mouth moved. He still wanted to try and win her over, but Su Nanxing interrupted her without warning, "I will practice to this point today, come again tomorrow."

His attitude was extremely unyielding, and Lin Xuecha instantly understood what Su Nanxing was thinking.

He didn't want to lend her that book...

She went silent, then bent over and said, "Yes, then I'll take my leave first, many thanks Your Highness."

Su Nanxing brushed his clothes and called out a person's name.

That person's reaction was very nimble, and appeared in front of Su Nanxing almost immediately.

Su Nanxing shot a glance at Lin Xuecha, his voice still as calm as autumn water, "This king gives you a servant girl, who knows some martial arts and knows the etiquette within the palace.
