The day Fu Linbei visited the Lin family, the temperature in Yancheng had dropped sharply. The sky was overcast and gloomy, as if it was going to rain. After getting off the car and taking only two steps, he saw a dignified middle-aged man coming out to greet him warmly.
"Uncle Lin."
He nodded politely, and for the first time he did not use the polite and distant "Mr. Lin", but called Lin Tiancheng uncle. Although there was no expression on his face, the look in his eyes had a warmth that was not there before.
Father Lin's heart was slightly moved, but his expression remained calm. He just smiled kindly and invited the man in, "Mr. Fu, please take a seat."
"You can just call me Linbei."
The man's imposing aura had long been restrained, as if he was just an ordinary young man. His tone was very gentle, making his sharp and handsome face seem much softer.
Lin Tiancheng was flattered by such an attitude, and even felt a little uncomfortable. For some reason, he wanted to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead.
In the business world, seniority and qualifications are not important, only the strong are respected. Even though he has a relationship with Lin Jianxi, he is too embarrassed to put on airs in front of this person. So he laughed dryly and passed it off vaguely, without calling him by his name.
In the elegant flower hall, the maid had respectfully served this year's new black tea. A variety of Chinese and Western snacks were laid out on the table. All the scents permeated each other and mixed into a special sweet fragrance.
"Good tea." Fu Linbei picked up the gilded ceramic teacup with colorful carvings, put it to his lips and took a sip, he couldn't help but let out an exclamation of praise.
"Of course. It's a rare new batch of tea. It's flavored with bergamot and has a fruity aroma."
Lin Jianxi came over following the smell, sat down next to him very naturally, and smiled as she pushed the small plate of dessert on the table in front of the man.
"Try this. It's a new product developed by Spencers recently. It's said to be an exclusive formula. If you go too late, you won't be able to buy it. The taste is a bit like Opera, but without the chocolate. The coffee pulp has a higher proportion, and the cream is also very light. It's very delicious."
"Okay." Fu Linbei responded, but did not eat it immediately. Instead, he looked at it carefully from top to bottom. His eyes seemed to be able to emit X-rays, and he scanned back and forth with a rigorous and serious look.
"Lin Bei, do you want to explore the chemical composition inside?" Lin Jianxi looked at him with a bit of amusement, then snatched the food from his mouth, forked a large piece of cake and stuffed it into his mouth, enjoying it happily.
At the end, I even teased him, "Look, I tried it, it's not poisonous."
His attitude was so casual and frivolous that Lin Tiancheng's eyelids twitched wildly. However, he turned his head and secretly glanced at Fu Linbei's face, and was shocked to find that the man who never smiled or spoke much actually raised the corner of his mouth, revealing a very obvious smile.
"I just want to study the recipe so that I can make it for you in the future when I can't buy it."
He explained in a gentle voice, and did not get a new one. He continued to eat the one that Lin Jianxi had eaten, "It tastes really good."
Lin Tiancheng next to him was completely stunned and shocked.
He had dealt with Fu Linbei several times before, and he was very familiar with his style of doing things and his tactics and courage. When had he ever seen him being so demanding?
