Upon receiving Charlie’s heartfelt invitation, Aurora smiled and eagerly apanied him into the vi. Once inside, Charlie gestured for Aurora to rx on the living room sofa before preparing a pot of tea for her.
Aurora gingerly epted the tea and remarked, “By the way, Master Wade, I visited Sister Jasmine a couple of days ago!”
Curiosity sparked in Charlie’s eyes as he asked, “Oh? Did you go to herpany or her home?”
Charlie nodded, recalling how he had worked to resolve the Moore family crisis and help Jasmine reim her position as the heir. He realized he hadn’t had the chance to see her since then and inquired, “How is Jasmine doing these days?”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">
Aurora tilted her head thoughtfully and responded, “Sister Jasmine seems to be in good spirits.” Then she added quickly, “Oh, and she has an Akita dog at home! It’s incredibly pure and adorable. I don’t think there’s another Akita in all of Aurous Hill with such good lineage. She mentioned that it was a gift from your friend?”
Charlie chuckled, saying, “Well, you might have to wait at least a year for that.”
Aurora waved her hand dismissively. “That’s fine! A year goes by quickly.” She then turned to Charlie and asked, “By the way, Master Wade, do you have some time avable in the next few days?”
Curious, Charlie replied, “What’s on your mind?”
Aurora looked a bit shy and said, “Well, since I won against Nanako Ito and imed the championship, I’ve been practicing diligently at home. However, I feel like my progress is slow. I would love for a senior coach to train me one-on-one. If it’s not too much trouble, I would be grateful if you coulde over to my house and provide some guidance.”
Charlie considered her request and smiled. “That’s an easy favor to fulfill. Once I finish refining the medicine, I n to invite everyone over for a meal, and I’ll make sure toe a few hours early to help you with your training.”
Aurora’s face lit up with excitement. “That sounds wonderful, Master Wade! I’ll inform my dad to prepare the best banquet at home!”<fna084> This text is hosted at Find★Novel</fna084>
Charlie nodded with a grin and asked, “By the way, did Jasmine tell you who gave her the Akita?”
Aurora shook her head. “Sister Jasmine only mentioned that it was your friend, but she didn’t borate on who it was.”
Charlie chuckled and revealed, “It was actually Nanako Ito, the one you defeated in thepetition.”
“What?!” Aurora eximed, clearly surprised. “It was her?”
“Yes,” Charlie confirmed with a smile.
Aurora quickly inquired, “Master Wade, how is Nanako Ito doing? I felt really guilty because I didn’t manage the medicine’s effects well and ended up injuring her during our match. I’m worried about her recovery…”
With a sigh, Aurora confessed, “To be honest, Nanako has always been much stronger than I am. She should have been the champion, and I only won thanks to the magic medicine you provided. While I may have won, it doesn’t feel honorable…”
Charlie reassured her, “Aurora, there’s nothing shameful about it. Competitions are all about showcasing your skills and how well you adhere to the rules. While part of your strength came from the elixir, it still reflects your talent. Plus, you passed the doping tests, proving you didn’t take any banned substances, so everything aligns withpetition regtions.” He added, “It’s simr to the advanced swimsuits that swimmers use—like the shark skin suits.”
He continued, “These high-tech swimsuits significantly reduce water resistance. For instance, the famous swimmer Michael Phelps broke 14 world records in just a month while wearing one, and he has won over 20 Olympic gold medals.”
“While these suits are a big help, none of thepetition rules explicitly prohibited them, so athletes can take pride in their achievements without feeling disgraceful.”
Aurora nodded slowly, still trying to grasp the concept. “I think I understand what you’re saying…”
Charlie smiled warmly. “Competitions are yed by the rules, so you shouldn’t feel any pressure concerning this. In fact, you should aim to continuepeting at higher levels, striving for more glory for our country!”
Aurora responded eagerly, “Yes, Master Wade! I will definitely give my all and aim for more championships in the future!” She then nced at the time and shyly added, “I know you must have othermitments this afternoon, so I won’t take up too much of your time. Just remember the ns we discussed…”
Charlie nodded. “Rest assured, once I’m done with the medicine, I’ll reach out to your father.”
Aurora stood up respectfully and said, “Thank you, Master Wade. I’ll take my leave now!”
Charlie also rose and replied, “I’ll see youter.”</p“indeed,”></p“i>
