Pet King - Chapter 97

Chapter 97
After resting for five minutes, Zhang Zian struggled to stand up and followed Jiang Qianxue hiking up the mountain .


The carrier interested the fans even more . Many teahouses used high-end mineral water to make tea; however, a teahouse located on top of a mountain that still used high-end water seemed quite distinctive .
How much does one pot of tea cost?
As they hiked up further, the fog seemed thicker and the humidity was very high . The sky was dark . It looked like it was going to rain soon . Maybe the street vendors down the hill were right about the rain .
When Zhang Zian almost died climbing up the stairs, the path took a sharp turn to the right and there was a flat area looking extremely like the mountaintop .
In fact, they were about 20 or 30 meters away from the top . The real mountaintop was so narrow that it wasn’t suitable for tourists . As a result, most people would stop there and call it the mountaintop . Not many people had reached the top . Although it seemed awfully quiet on their way up, there were actually quite a few tourists up there . A few college kids were taking pictures of the fog using some expensive cameras; two families who seemed to know each other were resting on the stone bench, chatting and laughing; a young couple was hiding under the trees…Zhang Zian reached into his pocket . It was too bad that he didn’t bring a lighter, otherwise he would scare the crap out of those two annoying lovebirds .
A group of strong-looking older people who hiked there every day were about to go down . When they saw how tired Zhang Zian was, they all laughed at him . "Young man, you have to get some more exercise! Look at that girl, she is much better than you!"
There were a few gazebos and stores selling food, drinks and souvenirs . Not many people would spend money there though .
There, the mysterious teahouse was standing right in front of Jiang Qianxue and Zhang Zian – Teahouse in Hidden Fog .
It was a two-level Chinese traditional style building that looked like the teahouses in old Chinese movies . Small but elegant, it looked exceptionally attractive among the other old buildings . There were some antique lanterns hanging along the eaves of the veranda . The signboard also seemed to come from some famous calligrapher . It was a beautiful piece of art .
Even though Mt . Hidden Fog wasn’t too high, building a teahouse like this had to be costly . All the building materials had to be transported up by the carriers . How long would it take for the return on investment?
Jiang Qianxue pointed her cell phone at the teahouse so her fans could see it . Zhang Zian also was using his cell phone and looking around . People thought he was taking a picture, but in fact he was searching for the elfin .
There were barely any buildings there so the elfin was very likely hiding in the teahouse .
Someone came out from the teahouse . It was the carrier they saw on their way up . Now he looked relaxed and happy with only an empty pole on his shoulder, since those four cartons of mineral water had turned into cash in his pocket . He walked around, pulled out a plastic bag and picked up the empty bottles people left behind . After, he nodded at Zhang Zian and Snowy with a smile, then followed the older group down the hill .
The college kids saw Zhang Zian and Snowy at the gate of the teahouse . They came over to tell them, "That teahouse is crazy expensive . We checked out the prices a minute ago . "
Jiang Qianxue didn’t really care . "Well, it should be a bit more expensive . The water was moved up here by the carriers . "


The kids came to tell her because she was pretty and looked like she was the same age as them . If there was only Zhang Zian, they wouldn’t have bothered .

"It is a lot more expensive," they laughed .
Snowy was more curious after talking to them . She spoke to Zhang Zian, "Mr . Manager, want to take a look?"
Zhang Zian wiped off some sweat, "You go first . I want to take a breath out here . "
She couldn’t wait to walk in the teahouse happily .
The kids saw that Snowy walked in . They immediately turned around, but Zhang Zian stopped one of them, "How expensive is it?"
"Well, go check it out yourself," they walked away and continued taking pictures .


Are they really taking pictures? Zhang Zian suspected that those kids came up to pretend they were taking pictures . Their real purpose was to attract pretty girls . The high-end cameras might not even belong to them .
He walked in the teahouse after cooling down for a bit .
"Welcome . How many guests in the group?" a young girl wearing a waitress uniform came up with a big smile on her face .
The décor in the teahouse was fresh and elegant . There were six sets of Chinese redwood tables and chairs . Each set was separated by a folding screen with Chinese painting . It provided privacy for each party . Wooden windows with carved patterns were wide open so the customers could look at the beautiful mountaintop view as they enjoyed the tea . Some Chinese calligraphy was hanging on the wall between the windows . However, Zhang Zian wasn’t good at art, so he could not tell what they were about . Some antique lanterns were hanging inside to light up the teahouse .
Behind the counter stood a lady in her 30swearing a traditional Chinese Qipao .
To look good in a traditional Chinese Qipao is not easy . A normal person usually could not carry it well . A high-end Qipao is usually tailored for a perfect fit .
This lady looked great in her Qipao . She looked like a classical Chinese beauty . Behind her, there was a padauk shelf which listed various kinds of tea making tools . She smiled and nodded at Zhang Zian as their eyes met .
There were no more customers .
The aroma of tea filled the teahouse .
Jiang Qianxue was showing her fans the décor in the teahouse and talking to them quietly . The female owner didn’t stop her . Zhang Zian relaxed . Not like the jewelry store, taking pictures and filming was allowed here .
The waitress understood immediately . She pointed at Snowy and asked, "are you guys together?"
Zhang Zian nodded, "yeah . "
The waitress said, "please take a seat . Let me know whenever you are ready . " She then returned to the counter and stood next to the owner . They were chatting from time to time . There was a mini copper stove with charcoal burning inside . Four different color teapots were laying on the counter side by side . They were silver, copper, black and brown .
Zhang Zian pulled out his cell phone and scanned around the teahouse . His target was found immediately .
[Game Tip]: Target confirmed - the benevolent and righteous cat .
