Chapter 516: Five hundred and fifteen, face it together
Song Yan Ning placed a few tea leaves in Avril’s teacup, and a fragrance emanated from the cup.
Avril took a sniff, somewhat surprised, "What a lovely aroma!"
She blew on the tea in her cup and took a small sip, furrowing her brows slightly. Before long, her expression turned to one of amazement, "How strange! The tea tastes bitter when it first goes down, but then it becomes slightly sweet after a moment." She had always found it odd that Huaxia people liked to brew tea. Only now did she understand that tea was more delicious than she had imagined. She planned to buy extra tea to take back with her.
Song Yan Ning smiled, "This is why Huaxia people love drinking tea. Moreover, tea is not just a drink; it also aids digestion, cuts through the fat, reduces internal heat, clears the eyes, soothes the mind, eliminates vexation, cools the body, detoxifies, generates fluids, and quenches thirst. The polyphenols in tea are powerful antioxidants with significant physiological activity, acting as scavengers of free radicals in the body, and can prevent the synthesis of various carcinogens like nitrosamine. It can also absorb radioactive substances, thereby protecting women’s skin from radiation. Washing your face with tea leaves can remove facial grease, tighten pores, and slow down skin aging."
The more Avril listened, the more astonished she became, "I never imagined these unassuming tea leaves could be so powerful. I must buy more to take back with me. Doctor Song, could you recommend which type of tea I should buy?" She didn’t understand tea, but she knew there must be good and bad ones.
"Hmm," Song Yan Ning nodded.
"Then let’s go buy some now," Avril said as she drained the tea in her cup, grabbed Song Yan Ning’s hand, and hurriedly started walking outside.
Song Yan Ning shook her head with a smile, "This is Korea."
Avril paused, a sheepish smile on her face, releasing Song Yan Ning’s hand, "I forgot."
"How about this? You give me your address, and I’ll have some tea sent to you," Song Yan Ning smiled.
"Wouldn’t that be too much trouble?" Avril asked, feeling a bit embarrassed.
