Chapter 98 So That’s How It Is, Amazing!
As soon as Lorne finished speaking, Weiss turned so dumbfounded that his eyes were about to pop out of their sockets.
“So… You brought your student to a brothel?”
Faced with Weiss’s expression as if he had encountered a ghost, Lorne did not realize that something was wrong. Instead, he patted Weiss on the shoulder.
“Little friend, don’t tell me… you haven’t learnt about courting for marriage and all these supposed fireworks?”
Weiss quickly shook his head. As the First Prince, his marriage had long been decided. She was the daughter of an official in the imperial court. She was not particularly distinguished, but she had some status. Therefore, Weiss knew a little about these things, but he had never gone through the whole process of it all.
After all, he was the First Prince of the empire and a first-class figure in the royal family. Kyle had been strict with his family since he was young The officials in the imperial court kept a close watch on him. If he really dared to come to a brothel and was discovered, the next day, the news of him coming here would have been the top priority for Kyle.
At that time, he would definitely be beaten up by Kyle, so Weiss had never really considered it an option to come here. He thought that his teacher would bring him to some high-class place to experience life and learn about things, but in the end, he actually came to the Brothel Alley.
Weiss felt like he had been greatly disappointed.
“Isn’t it inappropriate for us to come to such a place?
“If my father finds out, he might break my leg.”
Lorne immediately waved his hand and said nonchalantly,
“Don’t worry, I definitely won’t tell him about today’s practical teaching.
“After all, how would a stubborn person like him know about our new teaching method? So you don’t have to tell him either.
“Besides, with your father’s appearance, I won’t believe it even if you try to convince me that he’s never been here.”
Weiss could help but twitch his lips.
If nothing unexpected happened, his father, the King of Lolan, might not have been here. After all, he was the king, and having him wander around here would be bad for his image. Not to mention anything else, if the famous Andrew knew about it, then his father would definitely be living in a ditch by now.
Therefore, thinking about it, Weiss himself had a myriad of conflicted emotions. It was not good for the First Prince to appear in such a place. Although it was his highly respected teacher who brought him here, it was still inappropriate to even think about being here.
Therefore, Weiss had an extremely hesitant look on his face. He stood in the middle of the street, not knowing what to do.
Lorne looked at his honest disciple’s dazed look and could not help but roll his eyes. Then, he put away the smile on his face and said with a slightly serious tone.
“Little friend, do you think that I brought you here today just to seek pleasure and wander around the brothel’s?
“It’s enough to say that you think that I don’t do my job properly and don’t teach you knowledge. You might only think that we’re here for fun, right?”
Weiss immediately shook his head in fear and then bowed to Lorne.
“You misunderstand me. I would never dare to think that way. You must have your reasons for doing so. Perhaps it’s to relax your mood.”
Lorne shook his head.
“Wrong! You’re very wrong to say that. I might as well tell you the truth. I brought you here today for your own good!”
The only thing shown on Weiss’s face was pure confusion. He really did not have any intention of visiting a brothel. Perhaps it was because he dared not to.
In any case, what did this have to do with what was for his own good?
Weiss really did not understand any of these things, so he only started intently at Lorne, hoping for an explanation.
Lorne pondered for a moment, then slowly replied.
“A person’s life is short. We only live for a few decades. No matter how long one stretches their life, it will be as far as only a hundred years.
“In such a remote life, no matter who it is, one will experience countless temptations, big and small.
“It may be treasures, it may be a peerless beauty, it may be a beautiful field or a beautiful pond, or it may be a position of power.
“Some people can withstand the temptations and persevere with their heart. For their initial goal, they will work hard and strive to improve themselves.
“And in the end, they will succeed and achieve their goal.
“There are some people who are not firm enough and can’t resist the temptation. When the opponent or even the enemy throws out a bait, they will immediately take the bait.
“The final result would lead to their body and mind being corroded by gold, silver, countless treasures, and even power and status. Their perseverance over the years could be shattered in one move.”
When Lorne said this, Weiss could not help but be physically and mentally shaken .
This topic felt a little too deep to talk about in such a place. However, little did he know that it was actually related to the temptation life offers.
His mind immediately began to think on its own, and not long after, his entire body trembled. Then, he pointed to the brothels on both sides of the street and asked Lorne, “So according to what you said, the Brothel Alley in front of us is a form of temptation?”
Lorne immediately clapped his hands.
“You’re right. Shouldn’t you think of it as temptation?”
“So you brought me here today not to have fun, not to relax, but to train my ability to withstand temptation?”
“You still have a long way to go in life, and there are many tests you will face in the future. Moreover, your father is a trader in business. The opponents and enemies he encounters are all different.
“After you take over his business, these opponents may use all kinds of methods to seduce you and destroy your business.
“At this time, you have to rely on your own resistance to resist these temptations and not be tempted by their bait.
“The things in front of you now are what we call beauty temptations. You have to experience these things in person to be able to train your perseverance. Otherwise, if the enemy throws out the bait in the future, you won’t even realize that it’s bait.
“So to sum it up, I brought you here today to let you experience it for yourself and to train yourself. You have to understand my painstaking efforts in this!”
As soon as Lorne finished speaking, Weiss’s face was filled with gratitude.
His teacher was being really too good to him, to think of such a far-reaching matter for him. He could not help but feel the urge to cry.
