Chapter 199 - 198 Love at First Sight
It was as if they were chatting about trivial family matters; everyone appeared indifferent and normal.
Paul drank a cup of wine and walked into a bedroom by himself, while Brian took the medicine box for treating wounds and stood up to go to the bathroom. Charles stretched out his hand towards Yang Yi and said, "Come with me."
Yang Yi let out a breath and asked, "Is Paul okay?"
"He’s fine, just had the bad luck of getting grazed on the waist. Come on, follow me."
Charles led Yang Yi from the dining room into the basement.
Many American houses have direct access to the basement from the dining room or back door, although the so-called basement is often only semi-underground, used to store tools and the like, with direct entry from the back door or garage.
But Charles’s basement was slightly different. Charles had many tools in his basement, which was not unusual, but upon pushing aside a movable tool cabinet and opening a secret door, and nonchalantly switching on the light, there was a dark room filled with knives.
Yang Yi couldn’t help but exclaim, "So many knives! Are these all your collection?"
Charles shook his head and said, "No, not my collection. They are my works. In my spare time, I’m a knifemaker, but I never sell my creations. So over the years, a lot has accumulated here."
Looking at the dazzling array of knives, Yang Yi’s eyes lit up once again.
"I like knives and making knives, especially forging them. I have many Damascus steel works, but I particularly love feather patterns. The materials I usually use are T10 and L6, as well as 52100. However, I also make knives using the stock removal method, and I prefer using 154cm and aus8 when doing so. Which kind do you like?"
