Upon hearing Liu Jiahui’s words, Mia (Liu Manqiong) felt a wave of relief wash over her.


    However, she couldn’t help but express her frustration, saying, “Dad, since Grandpa Qiu and Grandma Qiu are visiting, why didn’t you let me know sooner? I could have prepared some gifts in advance! Now I’m going home empty-handed, which feels so inappropriate…”


    Liu Jiahui chuckled and replied, “Knowing your personality, if I had told you earlier, you would have definitely tried to avoiding. You would have insisted that it was just an interview, iming it was better not to impose on anyone. And then, you would have asked me not to mention it to anyone. Come on, I’m your father—I know you well!”


    Mia (Liu Manqiong) found herself momentarily speechless. Reflecting on her father’s words, she acknowledged they held some truth. Given her nature and the way she typically interacted with her father, it made sense that she might have tried to avoid the situation.


    Finally, she said, “Alright, I’ll go visit Grandpa Qiu and Grandma Qiu first.”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Liu Jiahui smiled and responded, “That sounds great! I’ll join you for a nice meal with Grandpa Qiu and Grandma Qiu. Just make sure toe back soon; I’ll pick you up at the airport.”


    Mia (Liu Manqiong) instinctively protested, “No, I’ll drive to the airport and head back on my own.”


    Liu Jiahui waved off her concerns, saying, “It’s fine; I’ll have Amei drive your car back for you. That’s settled then. Bye!”


    Before Mia (Liu Manqiong) could respond, Liu Jiahui had already hung up the phone.


    Though she felt a bit helpless, Mia recognized that once her father made up his mind, nothing could deter him. Picking her up from the airport was a minor matter, so she decided not to resist too much.


    Putting her phone away, she turned to Sister and said, “I’m sorry, Sister, for misunderstanding you earlier. I hope you can forgive me.” Sister smiled warmly and replied, “Miss Liu, there’s no need to be so polite with me.”


    She gestured toward a Rolls Royce parked nearby and said, “The car is over there, Miss Liu. Shall we go?”


    “Okay,” Mia (Liu Manqiong) nodded and followed Sister into the Rolls Royce, which then set off toward Zijin Mountain Vi.


    As they drove, Mia (Liu Manqiong) and Lin Wan’er (ni) eagerly looked around, as if they were discovering Aurous Hill for the first time.<fnf8d8> N?w ?ovel chapt?rs are published on fin?novel</fnf8d8>


    Sister, seated in the front passenger seat, turned to Mia (Liu Manqiong) with a smile and asked, “Is this your first visit to Aurous Hill, Miss Liu?”


    “Yes,” Mia (Liu Manqiong) replied with a slight nod. “I’ve never been here before.”


    “I see,” Sister continued. “You’re here to apply for a job at Aurous Hill University. Let me ask you, since you’ve never been to Aurous Hill, why did you choose toe here from Hong Kong Ind? In terms of urban development, Aurous Hill isn’t quite on par with Hong Kong Ind.”


    As the question hung in the air, Mia (Liu Manqiong) instinctively thought of Charlie. Her sole reason foring to Aurous Hill was indeed tied to him, but she was uncertain about how things would unfold.


    Regardless, Mia (Liu Manqiong) was determined to act on her decisions rather than just talk about them. It wasn’t her style to make empty promises without following through.


    However, she chose not to divulge the truth. Instead, she told Sister, “I’ve spent too much time on Hong Kong Ind, and it’s be enough. The first-tier cities in the maind have a faster pace, so I wanted to find a more rxed city, which is why I chose Aurous Hill.”


    Sister nodded in agreement and said with a smile, “You’re right! The pace of life in Aurous Hill is indeed slowerpared to first-tier cities, and the environment is much morefortable. Having lived here for many years, I’ve grown to love it more and more. I’m sure you’lle to appreciate it too after spending some time here.”
