Lin Wan’er (ni) pondered this and then turned to Mia (Liu Manqiong) with a yful smile. “Sister Mia, considering you traveled all the way from Hong Kong Ind to Aurous Hill, it doesn’t seem like you’re just job hunting!”
Mia (Liu Manqiong) looked surprised and asked, “What makes you say that?”
Lin Wan’er (ni) grinned mischievously, “It feels more like you’re on a mission to chase after your sweetheart.”
Her teasing words cut straight to Mia’s heart, leaving her momentarily flustered. However, she quickly regained herposure and replied, “How could that be? I’ve never even been to Aurous Hill before, and I don’t know anyone here, let alone have a sweetheart.”<fnf4fd> The source of th?s content is Find~Novel</fnf4fd>
Despite Mia’s hurried denial, Lin Wan’er (ni) noticed the brief flicker of embarrassment on her face. This small change only strengthened Lin Wan’er’s conviction that she was onto something.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">
Considering Mia (Liu Manqiong)’s background, it was clear that aside from Charlie, no other man could inspire a wealthy youngdy like her to abandon her usual restraint and travel from Hong Kong Ind to Aurous Hill.
However, Lin Wan’er (ni) had a keen understanding of human nature. Recognizing Mia’s moment of vulnerability, she decided to tread carefully, recalling a saying from Sun Tzu: one should not chase the desperate.
With a lighthearted tone, she shifted the topic, saying, “I just wanted to tease you, Sister Mia, because you’re so beautiful!”
Lin Wan’er (ni)’s abrupt change of subject eased the tension for Mia (Liu Manqiong). From her perspective, her feelings for Charlie were profound, but he was married. Even if she hade to Aurous Hill for him, she felt it was crucial to keep her emotions private and avoid raising any suspicions.
Yet, to her surprise, Lin Wan’er (ni) countered, “Given Sister Mia’s impressive family background and talents, I can’t imagine that the young men in Hong Kong Ind wouldn’t be pursuing you. So why would you have your heart set on someone from Aurous Hill?”
Thisment struck a chord with Mia (Liu Manqiong) and made her instinctively defend Charlie. “It’s not quite so simple. While Hong Kong Ind may be more developed than Aurous Hill, it doesn’t mean that the men here are any less impressive.”
Lin Wan’er (ni) saw this as Mia (Liu Manqiong) instinctively protecting Charlie. When someone truly cares for another, they naturally defend everything about them, including the ce they call home.
Mia (Liu Manqiong) feltpelled to rify that not everything was better on Hong Kong Ind, especially not when it came to finding someone like Charlie. She was determined to make her feelings known.
Unbeknownst to her, Lin Wan’er (ni) had expertly guided the conversation to evoke these responses. With a sweet smile, she replied, “Sister Mia, you’re absolutely right. My perspective was indeed too narrow.”
She couldn’t help but think, “This is not how Miss usually behaves. Is she testing Mia? It’s a shame Mia can’t see it.”
At that moment, the elderlydy Qiu joined the conversation, sighing, “Mia, you’re not getting any younger. It’s time to find a boyfriend and think about marriage. The prime years for a woman are from 18 to 28. If you wait too long, you might regret it.”
