When Mia (Liu Manqiong) spotted Charlie standing at the door, seemingly lost in thought, she couldn’t resist asking, “Mr. Wade, is something wrong?”


    He approached her, pleading, “Please, please.”


    Charlie nodded in acknowledgment, and as he followed the waiter inside, he caught sight of a small bell hanging on the sliding door, which sparked an idea in his mind.<fn4dff> Discover more novels at f?i?n?d?n?o?v?e?l?</fn4dff>


    If the Qing Dynasty were to send an earl to Aurous Hill in the future, he realized he would need to craft a “bell” to serve as a warning.


    Once seated with Mia (Liu Manqiong), Charlie pulled out his mobile phone and messaged Zhang Ermao, who had been selling antiques on Antique Street, requesting a meeting at the mid-level vi in Champs Elysees Hot Spring the next day at noon.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Recently, Zhang Ermao had begun working closely with Don Albert as a strategic adviser and had excelled in reorganizing Don Albert’s businesses and personnel, leading to significant improvements in both ie and management.


    Currently, Don Albert was spending most of his time at the Champs Elysees, delegating many of his responsibilities to Zhang Ermao.


    Charlie needed Zhang Ermao to help bring his earlier idea to fruition.


    Meanwhile, Mia (Liu Manqiong) felt a bit embarrassed and cautious in Charlie’s presence.


    After ordering some casual dishes, she took the initiative to say, “Mr. Wade, I’m truly sorry… I should have informed you earlier about my arrival in Aurous Hill…” Charlie noticed the awkwardness in her expression. With a reassuring smile, he replied, “Isn’t it nice to have such a delightful surprise?”


    Mia (Liu Manqiong) couldn’t hide her happiness upon hearing this and asked, “Really? Are you serious?”


    “Absolutely.” Although Charlie’s response was somewhat insincere, he understood that Mia (Liu Manqiong) had traveled a long way, and he didn’t want toe across as indifferent. It was important to him that he made her feel weed, as it could be a significant blow to her, making each day in Aurous Hill feel like a year.


    Just a small gesture of surprise from him could help ease the embarrassment and confusion Mia (Liu Manqiong) felt.


    As Charlie anticipated, Mia (Liu Manqiong) brightened at his affirmation. She felt a wave of relief wash over her, and a joyful smile spread across her face.


    She nced at Charlie, shyly murmuring, “I was worried thating to Aurous Hill without giving you a heads-up might cause you some trouble…” “Not at all,”


    Charlie quickly waved his hand, “We are friends. You took such good care of me when I visited Hong Kong Ind, so I’m genuinely happy that you’re here to develop in Aurous Hill. If you ever need my help while you’re here, please don’t hesitate to ask.” Mia (Liu Manqiong) nodded enthusiastically, “Okay! I understand!”


    Charlie smiled softly and then pretended to suddenly remember something, asking, “By the way, what’s your rtionship with Lin Wan’er (ni), the girl I met in the dormitory earlier?”


    Mia (Liu Manqiong) replied honestly, “ni is the granddaughter of a good friend of my grandfather’s. She’s an overseas Chinese from Mysia and will be studying at Aurous Hill University this year.” Then, she curiously added, “By the way, ni mentioned that you know her new roommate?”


    “Yes.” Charlie nodded, exining, “One of my younger sisters is also studying at Aurous Hill University this year, and I didn’t expect them to be in the same dormitory and major.”


    “Indeed…” Charlie smiled and, feigning curiosity, asked, “By the way, what did you do after I left at noon?”</p“oh,>
