At that moment.
In a tea house filled with the fragrant aroma of tea, Mr. Eugene and Grandpa Nathan were engaged in a tea tasting.
“You're harder and harder to get a hold of, you old coot,” Grandpa Nathan complained, though his face was full of smile. “I've been trying to set this up for months!" Mr. Eugene chuckled heartily. "Well, I've been chasing after the younger generation, hoping to find a worthy successor." "Still no luck? Perhaps you should consider someone else if it's not working out" "No, no, | can't do that,” Mr. Eugene insisted, waving his hands dismissively.

Today, his focus was on Arabella.
"I truly believe this child is clever and quick-witted, with great potential. She has won countless chess awards since she was young.” Grandpa Nathan said, turning to Alma. "Did you bring any of your certificates or trophies to show to Grandpa Eugene?" Alma smiled gracefully. “ wouldn't dare embarrass myself in front of you two gentlemen.
