His voice clearly entered everyone's ears outside the House of Han. Eckart was a little surprised but he didn't show any dissatisfaction.
"One of the House of Han's rules: picky customers.
Mr. Dao will only cook for the customers he approves of.
As for the others? "
Eckart shrugged.
Although he didn't finish his words, his meaning was obvious.
"2567, I'll wait for you outside the bamboo forest.
Even though we didn't get to taste Mr. Dao's cooking, the pastries here are not bad either. "
Eckart then signaled to Kieran before he led the others out of the bamboo forest, acting like he was familiar with the place.
The others didn't argue with Eckart, all of them following.
Lyn Amie slowed down his steps. He was the last.
"Remember to taste it carefully and tell me what you ate and how it tasted."
Lyn Amie lowered his voice and told Kieran.
Lyn Amie loved food a lot.
Being able to taste real delicacies made him feel extremely fortunate. Therefore, he was looking forward to it the moment he stepped into the House of Han.
Unfortunately, he couldn't get in.
Of course, given Lyn Amie's character, he would only feel a little regretful but not dissatisfied.
After another longing glance at the House of Han, Lyn Amie waved at Kieran and jogged after Eckart and the others.
Kieran quietly saw Eckart and the others off before he turned around and headed back to the House of Han.
In front of the House of Han was a 2-meter long, half-meter wide stone staircase. After Kieran walked up the stairs, a series of footsteps sounded.
Another female attendant appeared in front of Kieran with a pair of loose cloth shoes.
"Please change your shoes."
The waiter bowed and bent down with the shoes in his hands.
It seemed like she wanted to change Kieran's shoes.
"I'll do it myself."
Kieran said softly before he took the shoes and put them on himself.
It wasn't that he wasn't used to this kind of service, but Kieran didn't want to fall into the attendant's rhythm. Therefore, after putting on the shoes, he entered the House of Han.
The wooden floor was sturdy and clear.
The window was open, and the gentle night breeze blew in, dispelling the heat of midsummer.
The oil lamps were placed neatly on the shelves on both sides of the door. The shelves were separated into three layers, and the oil lamps on each layer were swaying left and right in the night breeze, but none of them were extinguished. They only caused the shadows in the House of Han to sway left and right.
Under the light, Kieran took a quick glance at the decorations in the main hall of the House of Han.
There was nothing to pay attention to.
That was because other than the rack with the oil lamp, there was nothing else here.
The doors to the rooms on the left and right were closed.
Kieran walked directly to the left, where the voice came from.
Bang, bang tie.
Kieran knocked on the thick wooden door.
"Please come in."
At the same time the deep and powerful male voice rang out again, the thick wooden door was slowly pulled open, and a beautiful, tall woman appeared behind the door.
The other party sized up Kieran with a scrutinizing gaze.
Then, without leaving a trace, she moved aside and opened up a path.
Although she hid it well, Kieran still picked up a sense of disgust in her eyes.
However, what piqued Kieran's interest was the woman's body.
Even with her clothes covering her body, Kieran could still see the bulging muscles on her body. It wasn't something a common man could achieve.
It was amazing for a woman to do that.
More amazing was, she didn't just do it, she did it very well.
She did it so well that she could take on 10 common men at once, and it wasn't a pyrrhic victory, but a swift end to the battle.
The calluses on her palms were telling Kieran that she wasn't just good at hand-to-hand combat, she was also good with short blades and firearms.
Judging from the way the man had stepped aside, Kieran was sure that the man's legs were also deadly weapons.
Kieran was an expert in combat with his legs, so he knew very well what the man's seemingly submissive stance meant.
She was like a venomous snake lurking in the shadows.
When she didn't move, she merged with the shadows and when she moved, she would deliver a fatal blow.
"Bodyguard?
Or … "
"Killer?"
Kieran wondered and unconsciously compared the woman to Gorbor.
In the end, Kieran shook his head.
There was a difference.
Gorbor was one of the ace bodyguards of the security company, his strength and professionalism were unquestionable, but compared to the woman, he was still a little lacking.
The thoughts in his heart didn't stop Kieran's movements.
When the woman moved aside, Kieran walked into the room and saw a man with a normal body, a scrawny man.
The man was wearing a white brocade shirt, his slightly long hair flowing down his shoulders, and when he caught Kieran's gaze, the man smiled warmly.
"Good evening, 2567."
A heavy and powerful voice came from the man's mouth.
If one didn't see the man in person, one would think the man with the voice was a strong and muscular man, but when one saw the man in person, a conflicting feeling rose in one's heart, followed by curiosity.
"Mm, good evening, Mr. Dao."
Kieran nodded and stood there quietly, looking at the man.
He didn't ask or pursue the matter.
It was as if everything was normal.
"Please have a seat.
Liu Ye, bring me the ingredients I've prepared. "
The man pointed at the wooden stool in front of him and ordered the tall maid.
The maid didn't say a word and walked out.
The door closed behind her.
When only Kieran and the man were left in the room, the man's smile got warmer. He stood up and walked to the cabinet beside him.
Unlike the empty main hall, this room was well-equipped.
Tables and chairs were placed in the middle of the room, and on the left side of the door was a 3-meter long cabinet that reached the ceiling. On the right side was a tall rack and two short racks, with three lush potted plants on top. Under the light from the candles on the table, the potted plants looked even more pleasing to the eye.
Opposite the cabinet was a big multi-treasure compartment, like a wall, dividing the room into two. The compartments were of different sizes, with all sorts of vases and sculptures of different shapes and sizes. Some were human, some were animal, and at the top of the compartment was a rolled-up scroll painting.
The man stood in front of the big cabinet, opened the door, and took out an incense burner, a plate of incense, and a tea set. He then went to one of the vases in front of the multi-treasure compartment and took out some tea leaves. He walked around the multi-treasure compartment and came back with a transparent water bottle.
"I've collected some tea leaves.
"It's not a good tea, but it goes well with tonight's food. It's very suitable."
Oh right, you can call me Boss Dao. "
Boss Dao said as he started to brew the tea in a pleasant manner.
"Mm."
Kieran didn't say anything else after that.
He didn't know how to taste tea, neither did he know how to.
However, when the heavy aroma of tea spread in the room, Kieran was sure the 'not the best' tea Boss Dao mentioned must be some good tea leaves.
Kieran picked up the teacup without being courteous.
However, just as the teacup touched his lips, Boss Dao spoke.
