Across from the desk, there was another set of rosewood sofas, with a couple of books placed on the coffee table.
Opposite the sofas was a small tea room. The half-moon-shaped tea table was bare, but beyond it was an assortment of teas, instant coffee, and coffee beans. You could have instant if you wished, or brew your own. A standard water dispenser stood inside. These furnishings were far less luxurious than those in Glades Horne's office, but they were genuinely practical.
Outside the tea room, two pots of lucky bamboo were arranged. It had grown quite tall, its leaves exceptionally lush. People say that the state of lucky bamboo reflects one's fortune: verdant leaves symbolize good luck, while yellowing leaves indicate misfortune. The lush growth of these two pots of lucky bamboo signified that Huayi's business was doing exceedingly well.
