A cup of tea stirred the heart of Hangcheng's coldest man: tea science PhD x powerful CEO, the ultimate second-chance romance
She's a tea science PhD and the founder of the tea drink brand Nian Xiao Cha. At a grand society banquet celebrating a baby's first month, she takes her place at the tea table as a tea master. A tea brewed from old-growth Shuixian oolong called Nian makes Lu Xuanyu, CEO of the Shixing Group, stop in his tracks for the first time over a woman he's never met.
He was looking for good tea for his grandfather, but left his heart at the fingertips of the woman brewing it. From tea gardens to milk tea shops, from contracts inked in black and white to a CEO's relationship announcement livestreamed across the internet, he says, "Sometimes, one glance is enough to last a lifetime."
There are undercurrents swirling around the tea table, dramatic reversals in business battles, one scheming man and woman after another causing trouble, and, above all, a stone-faced CEO's supreme devotion, quietly shown. The tea's fragrance has yet to fade, but their hearts are already full of longing.
The Heartbeat Among the Plants is a story about the sincerity that both tea and people understand.
