Chapter 452: Chapter 448: Drinking the Apprenticeship Tea on the Spot
Translator: 549690339
In the evening, Richelle Dunn brought little Timmy and Tiffany home. Just as they were getting settled, Roy Lewis came back with Timothy.
Upon seeing each other, the three kids greeted their parents with kisses and then hand in hand, ran off to play in the yard.
Suddenly, only Richelle Dunn and Roy Lewis were left in the living room.
Having been busy all day, both of them were quite tired.
Roy Lewis sat on the sofa, positioning Richelle Dunn to lean on him.
“Did everything go smoothly today?”
Compared to Timothy working at the office, it was apparently easier for little Timmy and Tiffany to encounter vagaries.
Richelle Dunn nodded, “Very smoothly, Timmy was incredibly serious throughout the entire process, cool as a cucumber. His stress management is really impressive.”
Roy Lewis planted a kiss on her forehead, “Isn’t that how you were during your first time in the operating room?”
Richelle Dunn laughed, “But I was already in my twenties then, it’s not the same.”
Roy Lewis disagreed with her.
“Age isn’t the issue here, some people simply can’t handle the pressure, whether they’re ten, twenty, or even fifty years old.”
Roy Lewis’ words reminded Richelle Dunn of a classmate who would throw up during dissections. The classmate ultimately switched majors.
“Yes, indeed, some people cannot adapt due to their innate psychological qualities. But Timmy did alright. Both my Master and elder fellow apprentices unanimously approve of him. If a slight hiccup like this were to hinder Timmy, it will disappoint my Master and his peers.”
Knowing that their eldest son performed well, she then went on to ask about Tiffany’s situation with Grandmaster Linwood.
“Don’t you know your own daughter? After her recent intensive training, Grandmaster Linwood was surprised when he heard Tiffany play the piano today. He said that her improvement in just half a month exceeded others’ progress in a year.”
Roy Lewis felt relieved upon hearing this.
“So, did she conduct the Master-disciple tea ceremony on the spot?”
Mentioning this, Richelle Dunn started laughing.
“Yeah, I felt it was inappropriate. I mean, Grandmaster Linwood is over 80 years old and Tiffany is only five. But I couldn’t bear to let Tiffany miss such a great opportunity, so I subtly asked if Tiffany could accept his disciple as her master, and if Grandmaster Linwood could instruct her whenever he has time.”
“Who would have thought that Grandmaster Linwood would be unhappy on the spot! He asked if I thought he was too old to teach.”
“I got scared and quickly explained I was just worried about the complexity it might present in terms of seniority among his many disciples and students.”
“Grandmaster Linwood immediately said, what’s so hard to understand about this? Their talent is just that. I’m not particularly enthusiastic about teaching them. However, I genuinely want to teach Tiffany. If you wouldn’t mind, I would impart all my knowledge to her. As far as generation goes, she can be referred by whichever title.”
Upon hearing this, Roy Lewis also laughed.
“So, is Tiffany now considered an elder master of all the disciples?”
Richelle Dunn laughed out loud, “More than an elder master, she’s even considered as their grandmother!”
Roy Lewis clicked his tongue, “This situation almost rivals Timmy’s.”
Bringing this subject up, Richelle Dunn remembered something else.
“Didn’t you say your previous professor wanted to meet Timothy?”
Roy Lewis nodded, “Yes, he is abroad attending the Global Economic Forum. He will return next week. We should prepare some gifts and pay him a visit.” Richelle Dunn asked, “What does he like?”
Roy Lewis had a good relationship with the professor.
“He likes calligraphy and paintings.”
Initially, Roy Lewis thought of having someone choose a painting from the gallery, but it occurred to him that Richelle Dunn also had a good eye for these things.
He then suggested, “If you have time, could you pick the gift? I’m clueless in this area.”
Richelle Dunn nodded, “Okay, what’s the budget?”
Roy Lewis thought for a while, “The price doesn’t need to be too high, between US$13,700 and US$41,000 would be fine. But, he really knows his stuff in this area.”
Richelle Dunn then understood what sort of thing she should choose, “Alright, I’ll choose some works from up-and-coming artists with potential. Firstly, they’re genuinely good pieces and secondly, they have collection value.”
Roy Lewis stroked her face, “Good, it’s your call.”
He recalled what the top executives had said at the company today and couldn’t help laughing.
Richelle Dunn was puzzled by his sudden laughter, “What happened? Did you find money?”
Shaking his head while laughing, Roy Lewis said, “No, I found a treasure!”
Richelle Dunn looked at him, but before she could say anything, Roy Lewis leaned in to plant a quick kiss on her lips.
“I’ve found you, my precious gem!”
Richelle Dunn was even more confused.
“Roy Lewis, what in the world has gotten into you?”
Roy Lewis then relayed the conversation he overheard in the hallway to Richelle Dunn.
After listening, Richelle Dunn wasn’t impressed.
“That’s because I’ve been through a lot, which led to the development of these skills. If you had to, I don’t think you’d perform any worse.”
Roy Lewis was touched and happy to find out that in Richelle Dunn’s mind, they were equals.
However, he couldn’t resist teasing her.
“Really, Dr. Dunn? I remember very clearly when you first came to our house you were so domineering, it was as if you had ‘I am the best in the world’ written on your forehead..”
