It was quite interesting.
The smile on Charles’ face became radiant gradually, he looked sunny and kind, “Your name sounds nice, Samuel. Your name means a new beginning, the renewal of everything, as the saying goes, morning hours are the best time of the day. Is it given by your father? “
” No, it’s given by my mom,” Samuel replied.
He wasn’t aware of his intention at all.
He always smiled broadly in which people won’t think that he was a bad guy.
He let Samuel’s guard down.
“Oh, your mommy was amazing…”
While he was talking, he saw Loredana and Cormac leave.
“Take you to see the master today.”
“Okay.” Loredana agreed, “Then wait for me.”
She turned his head to look at Cormac, before she could say, she heard him said, “I’ll go with you.”
Charles was very friendly to Loredana, so Cormac didn’t like him.
How could he agree to let him be with Loredana?
Unless he was crazy.
“Then what about the two of them?” Loredana’ eyes widened, she was surprised that Cormac was going to follow her.
“I’ll just bring them along.” He was uncomfortable leaving the two children behind, so he had to bring them along.
Loredana knew Cormac so well since he had already made a decision, she knew clearly that she can’t change him.
“Is it far? Can we be back today?” Loredana asked and if the destination was far, she would prepare some daily necessities for the kids.
“Let’s go. We can be back today.” Charles replied. His eyes fell on Cormac while he was talking, “Is Mr Mendelsohn always worried about me?”
Cormac sneered, his voice was neither high nor low but was frightening enough, he grabbed Loredana’
shoulder with his hand, “I have never regarded Mr White as an opponent.”
What he meant was that he was unqualified.
Charles was also angry and smiled kindly, “Then I will wait outside.”
He raised his hand and signalled Tom to push him out.
“Who is he?” Armand walked over to Boyce and asked.
“He is the landlord of the White City”.
Boyce answered nonchalantly.
“He is not an ordinary man. A lame man can be convincing. He must be something.” Armand touched his chin and moved away from Charles. He turned his head to look at Boyce, “They just said they want to go. Where are they going?”
“They want to meet a master who can make Tea Silk.”
” Wow, Tea Silk? “Theresa almost jumped with excitement when she heard what he said.
Armand looked at her in surprise, “Is this thing precious? Why have I never heard of it before? “
Theresa looked at him with disdain, “You know nothing”.
Armand was speechless, “…”
“I …”
Theresa didn’t bother to listen to him at all and walked away. She followed Loredana to pack their belongings, and then the group of people left the hotel.
Everyone went together. They went there in three cars. Their car was led by the two cars of Charles in front of them.
The further they drove, the more remote the place was. Meanwhile, the road became more rugged.
When the car entered a scenic town, Loredana was instantly fascinated by the surrounding scenery.
That was a small town sandwiched between rivers and mountains. The structure and design of the houses were unique. They looked more gorgeous between the mountains. The sunny hillside was covered with vineyards. As the car entered the town, they could smell the fragrance from the mixture of soil and the grape leaves.
As the car continued to move, they found that there were old buildings with ethnic characteristics all around the town. There were small wooden houses, well-preserved medieval villages which were connected by a series of vineyards and in front of each house, there were hanging scissors for fruit harvesting as well as bamboo baskets for collecting grapes…
Such an atmosphere made Simona excited and she patted the car window, “Wow, there are a lot of vines. They must be full of grapes in the summer…”
At this time, Charles’ car in front of them stopped, so did theirs.
Everyone got out of the car one after another.
Charles pointed to the village, not far away, “Our destination is right in front but we can’t drive inside, so can only get there on foot.”
“The surrounding here is really good and it won’t be tiring to walk.” Theresa also appreciated the environment here.
It was really rare to have such a fresh and uncontaminated village nowadays.
“Then let’s go.” Charles was still leading the way.
Cormac looked around to confirm that it was the village before he put his hand around Loredana’
shoulders and said, “Let’s go.”
“Ok”.
About half an hour later, they entered the village. There were not many people, they occasionally met one or two who were at old age on their way. They didn’t meet any young people.
“This is the house.” Charles pointed to a wooden house built at the end of the bridge and under the bridge was a river with crystal clear waters.
There were branches evenly tied to the fence. There was no door. Within the courtyard, there was a two-story wooden house. There was a bamboo chair on the right. An old man sits on it as he was carving a bamboo basket with the thin strip of bamboo in his hand. As he heard their movement, he raised his head, at that moment, the wrinkles on his forehead were deep, and his deep eyes fell on Cormac.
He stopped his work and stood up.
“You are…”
“Mr. Golden, we are here to learn the method of making tea silk,” Charles spoke first and explained their purpose of visit.
The old looked at the people standing at the entrance. He narrowed his eyes, his wrinkles could be seen. His eyes were deep, he entered the house, “Let’s get in.”
The living room of the wooden house was small, it could not occupy all of the people. The security guards did not enter while they stood outside.
Even then, the house was crowded after they entered.
The design of the house was simple, it was Chinese style, there were eight chairs in the living room. A
few drawings were hung on the wall on both sides. There was a newly created rubbish bin made of bamboo. They did not match each other and looked messy. A table was placed in the middle. The old sat on his seat.
He took a cigarette and ignited it, “Who wants to learn it from me?”
Loredana held Samuel’s hand and walked forwards, she said sincerely, “I want to learn the method of making tea silk from you. If you are willing to do so, please be the master of my business. The salary is up to you.”
He smoked vigorously and the white smoke was emitted. The special smell of the cigarette lingered in the small space. The smoke was different from the smell of those cigarettes found in the market.
Instead, it was a faint herbal smell.
Cormac frowned slightly. If it were not because of Loredana, he would not come to this kind of place ever.
