Chapter 1802: 434: The stars you want_4

The zombie incident was a miracle for the entire world.

It was Viola Thompson who led everyone to eliminate all hidden dangers.

Viola Thompson smiled faintly, “I’ve said it before, this achievement isn’t mine alone. If the members of the Marginine Organization hadn’t joined in time, I wouldn’t have been able to resolve everything so quickly.”

Willy now felt extremely fortunate for Lady Sebanli’s decision at that time.

If Lady Sebanli hadn’t trusted Viola Thompson so much, he would be a zombie by now!

At the same time, Willy was filled with regret.

He regretted getting angry with Lady Sebanli back then and regretted making her apologize to Piloy.

Piloy didn’t deserve it at all!

With that said, Viola Thompson continued, “Please have a seat, and taste our Sinian Country’s green tea.”

Viola Thompson picked up the teapot and began to pour the tea.

Her hands were exceptionally beautiful, shining with the greenish hue of the teaware like a delicate piece of art.

Lady Sebanli watched, somewhat entranced.

Who would believe that such a beautiful girl existed if they didn’t see it with their own eyes?

Soon, Viola Thompson had poured several cups of tea, “Please.”

Lady Sebanli picked up a cup and took a sip, “Mmm, a very unique flavor. There’s a… faint aroma, and a slight bitterness.”

If Lady Sebanli had to compare the taste to something, she would first think of coffee.

But the aroma of tea is clearer than that of coffee.

Although Willy couldn’t move his left hand, he was still able to use his right hand. After tasting the tea, he said, “I always thought that only Jaban Country had a tea ceremony. I didn’t expect Sinian people also liked drinking tea.”

Viola Thompson was naturally non-confrontational by nature, but she would stand up for her country’s dignity.

Moreover, tea culture originally belonged to Sinian Country.

“Professor Zacks knows too little about our Sinian Country. Tea originated from the era of the Yellow Emperor in Sinian Country, when Divine Husbandman tasted all kinds of herbs and discovered tea. Tea culture flourished during the Tang and Song dynasties. Sinian Country is the birthplace of tea culture and the homeland of tea.”

“Jaban Country did not have native tea trees in ancient times, and they did not have the habit of drinking tea. The reason Jaban Country is proficient in tea ceremony is simply because during the Nara period, the envoys sent to Tang Dynasty brought tea back to Jaban Country, where tea trees then took root. As for the tea ceremony itself, it is also modeled after ours in Sinian Country.”

Viola Thompson’s tone remained light and calm, not becoming angry because of Professor Zacks’s mistake.

She was merely stating facts.

Professor Zacks suddenly understood, “So Sinian Country is actually the birthplace of tea culture. No wonder when we went to Jaban Country a few years ago, we saw that they were also proficient in tea ceremony.”

Hearing this, Viola Thompson sighed softly.

The tea ceremony culture, originally belonging to Sinian Country, was now done better and more prominently by other countries, to the point where people first think of Jaban Country when it comes to tea ceremony.

What a pity!

She hoped the younger generation would take up the responsibility and reclaim all the forgotten parts of the past.

Seeing Viola Thompson sigh, Professor Zacks curiously asked, “What’s wrong, Professor Thompson?”

“It’s nothing,” Viola Thompson quickly returned to her usual demeanor.

After chatting for a while, Professor Zacks and Lady Sebanli brought out their gifts.

“Professor Thompson, you must accept this. It is a small token of our gratitude,” said Professor Zacks.

Lady Sebanli nodded and lifted the lid of the gift box, “Yes, you must take it.”

Inside was a set of imperial green jade.

Imperial Green is the highest grade of green, shining throughout, even a small bracelet could be worth tens of millions.

Let alone, the couple had brought a set of imperial green jewelry.

This set was Professor Zacks’s family heirloom.

It had been passed down to him through three generations.

After surviving a brush with death, Professor Zacks saw everything clearly.

Money and jewels were just worldly possessions.

Nothing was more important than being alive.

If he had died inside the building, what good would those jewels have done him?

Therefore.

The true owner of this jewelry should be Viola Thompson.

No one else but Viola Thompson deserved to have them.

Viola Thompson declined, “You should take it back with you, I can’t accept such a valuable gift.”

Professor Zacks continued, “Professor Thompson, only you are worthy of them. Since we have brought the items here, there’s no reason to take them back. We’ll leave them with you, and you have full discretion over them. Whether you throw them away or give them to someone else, it has nothing to do with us.”

Lady Sebanli smiled at Viola Thompson, “Professor Thompson, we brought this sincerely, please accept it. Moreover, this set of jewelry originally came from Sinian Country, let them return to their homeland with you!”

Over a hundred years ago, during a time of turbulence and instability, many precious treasures from Sinian Country flowed into foreign lands.

This set of jewelry is also from that period and can be considered an antique by now.

Hearing this, Viola Thompson nodded slightly, “Since that’s the case, then I’ll gladly accept it.”

“This is what Professor Thompson deserves.”

It wasn’t until evening that Willy and Lady Sebanli finally left.

After Willy and Sebanli had gone, Viola Thompson went to take an essential oil bath.

Tired from the day, Viola Thompson planned to relax before getting back to work.

After the bath, she received a message from Terrence Lentz.

“Miss Thompson, I’m downstairs.”

Downstairs?

Viola Thompson raised her eyebrows slightly; hadn’t this man just left?

Half believing and half doubting, Viola Thompson went to the corridor and stood by the railing, indeed seeing the figure standing on the first floor.

“Lentz!”

Viola Thompson raised her eyebrows slightly.

Terrence Lentz looked up a little, “Miss Thompson.”

Viola Thompson immediately headed downstairs, “Didn’t you say you were busy today?”

“Suddenly I’m not, I can stay with you for half a day, leaving tomorrow morning.” Terrence Lentz swallowed, “Liza told me, there’s a Sinian Food Street in the south district. They make the most characteristic snacks from home and also delicious Milk Tea; shall we go take a look?”

Delicious food could be ignored, but Milk Tea was non-negotiable!

How to relieve worries, only Milk Tea.

Thinking of Milk Tea, Viola Thompson even overlooked the abnormality of Terrence Lentz’s presence.

“Let’s go, of course,” Viola Thompson said, then added: “Let’s go.”

“Hold on a second.” Terrence Lentz suddenly grabbed her wrist.

“What’s the matter?” Viola Thompson looked back curiously.

Terrence Lentz’s intense gaze landed on the thin strap over Viola Thompson’s shoulder, “Are you sure you want to go out like that?”

It was then that Viola Thompson realized that she had just come out after her bath, wearing a white silk slip dress.

Pure white.

Without any other clothes underneath, nearly everything was visible.

Viola Thompson immediately turned around, “I-I’ll go change clothes.”

Watching Miss Thompson’s hasty retreat, Terrence Lentz laughed softly.

Soon after, Viola Thompson had changed and came out.

It was summer in Country Polluton.

She casually threw on a sweatshirt and black hot shorts, but no matter where she went with her good looks, she always drew attention.

Arriving outside the castle, Viola Thompson saw the vehicle Terrence Lentz had prepared.

To be precise, it was an antique.

It was a unique large handlebar bicycle from the last century that could carry passengers at both the front and back.

“Where did you get this antique?” Viola Thompson asked with lifted eyebrows.

Terrence Lentz spoke in a deep voice, “Picked it up from an antique dealer.”

Viola Thompson had only asked casually and hadn’t expected it to actually be an antique!

“So, you plan to take me out on this antique to grab something to eat?” Viola Thompson continued.

“Why not?” Terrence Lentz countered.

Three days ago, he had randomly seen a promotional clip for a period TV drama.

The male lead in the poster was riding this type of bicycle with the female lead.

The scene was particularly romantic.

Of course, this sort of romance had to be shared with the person he loved most.

“Right, I have something else to give you.” Terrence Lentz took out something wrapped in red cloth.

“What is it?” Viola Thompson asked curiously, taking it from him.

After unwrapping the red cloth, she found a pitch-black stone inside.

To be precise, it appeared to be a meteorite.

“A B16 meteorite?” Viola Thompson was somewhat surprised.

Terrence Lentz smiled slightly, “This is the star you wanted.”
