I Love You, Miss Genius

Chapter 41
Bonnie checked the time and casually said, “We still have some time on our
hands and it’s been a long time since I last brewed any tea from Mariage Fréres.
1 guess I'll just think of this as practice.” With that, she started brewing.
She took the tea leaves and started washing them. This was to remove any dust
on its surface, but it was extremely difficult to do. One misstep could compromise
its taste.
She proceeded to pour the water in and pour it out again. Every movement was
effortless and swift, so as not to compromise the tea leaves in the slightest.
Next,
she brewed the tea. She did it so gracefully that the whole scene looked like a
painting. She was beautiful to begin with, and she looked like an elegant deity
with the aromatic scent floating through the room.
Ivor sat across from her, completely drawn in. His gaze never left Bonnie for even
a fraction of a second.
“There. Enjoy.” She gave him a cup of tea. He snapped out of his trance. He
cleared his throat, took the cup, and tasted the tea. His eyes widened in shock as
the tea flowed down his throat.
“How does it taste?” She asked.
“Wonderful...” He looked at her in complete awe. He had never known that tea
could taste this way! The tea Master Quenton had brewed paled in comparison. It
was tasteless, even.
“It's mellow, full-bodied, and there’s a hint of sweetness. As you said, you brew
better tea than Master Quenton,” Ivor complimented. “How did you learn to be so
impressive at brewing tea?”
“Is it
really so impressive? I just need to boil some hot water and read the color of the
tea. It's way easier than learning kickboxing with my master up on the hills.”
Bonnie rested her chin on her hands.
He couldn't believe she was an expert tea master. And to think he was trying to
bring her down a little. It had ended up being her who had taken him by surprise
instead!
Ivor fell silent and he felt a little embarrassed. Bonnie was an expert tea master
and exceptionally good at chess. To top it off, she had learned kickboxing from
Cary and was his favorite apprentice.
Any one of these accomplishments would have commanded immense respect
from the entire world.
It was abrupt, but he started to cast his mind back to the things she had said to
him back then.
He didn’t deserve her.
It was beginning to look like she was right. Ivor was suddenly annoyed with
himself. He had been condescending to her when he hadn't known any better.
“Let's begin.” Bonnie sat by the chessboard.
Ivor collected his thoughts and sat down. He directed all his focus on the game of
chess. They played

matches in stalemates.

At one o'clock in the morning, Bonnie

didn't make a move after Ivor had
ended his turn. When he raised his
head, he found that she was asleep.
She looked peaceful and her fair skin
was tender beneath the light. The

He froze and stared at her for some time, oblivious to the fact that he was looking
at her with a tenderness he didn’t know he had.
The night was chilly. She could catch a cold if she slept like that.

Ivor rose slowly and walked to her,
wanting to wake her up. He could
smell a pleasant scent as he leaned

in close. It didn't smell like perfume.
Instead, it smelled like herbs. The

Confused, he lowered his head and
leaned in closer. Then, her beautiful
eyelashes caught his attention. They
were long and curled at a charming
angle. The content is on

He lowered his gaze and stared at her lips.
