As udia and Lin Wan’er (ni) made their way back to the dormitory, udia expressed her disappointment, saying, “Oh, I don’t think there’s another man out there as wonderful as Brother Charlie.”
Lin Wan’er (ni) furrowed her brow, lost in thought. Upon hearing udia, she instinctively replied, “It seems unlikely to find another like him, but if you truly care about him, it’s not impossible to pursue him.” udia responded shyly, “
ni, what are you talking about…”
Lin Wan’er (ni) smiled and retorted, “You can barely hide your admiration for him; don’t pretend I’m being ridiculous…”
Feeling nervous, udia nced around to ensure they were alone. Lowering her voice, she said to Lin Wan’er (ni), “Please don’t say things like that in the future. Even if I admire Brother Charlie, he’s already married. I just feel sorry for myself…”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">
Lin Wan’er (ni) nodded and quoted, “As the ancients said, when the king was born, I was not yet here. By the time I could give birth, I was old.”
With a sigh and aplex expression, Lin Wan’er (ni) quickly regained herposure and added with a smile, “But it doesn’t matter if he’s married; you can still be young at heart.”
udia blushed, feeling embarrassed. She avoided Lin Wan’er’s (ni) gaze and said in feigned anger, “You… why are you saying such ridiculous things? This is getting out of hand! Are you trying to tease me?”
Lin Wan’er (ni) replied earnestly, “I’m not teasing you; I’m beingpletely sincere! If you like him and he feels the same way, does it really matter who’s older or younger?”
udia’s face turned crimson with embarrassment, and she shot back, “You… you have a warped view of things!”
Lin Wan’er (ni) looked surprised, “Do I? Isn’t it about making yourself happy? If you love someone but can’t be with them, won’t that lead to unhappiness for you?”
udia replied seriously, “Even if it brings unhappiness, it’s not right to disrupt someone else’s family…”<fn4b9d> Updates are released by f?ndnovel</fn4b9d>
Lin Wan’er (ni) shook her head, saying, “I’m talking about integration, about bing a part of his life, not destruction.”
Startled and embarrassed, udia hurriedly opened the bedroom door and rushed into the bathroom, muttering, “Your views are so skewed! I’m not discussing this anymore; I’m going to take a shower!”
Watching her retreat, Lin Wan’er (ni) murmured under her breath, “What’s wrong with my views? Human civilization has existed for thousands of years; isn’t monogamy a rtively recent concept?”
After a moment, she shook her head and thought aloud, “That’s right… Charlie gave me the elixir and advised me to stay at Aurous Hill University for a while. He must believe I’m in danger soon… Could it be that people I’m meant to meet have already arrived in Aurous Hill?”
“But… that shouldn’t be the case. I’ve been so careful since arriving in Huaxia; how could I risk exposing myself so soon?”
With that thought, she quickly retrieved her bag from her pocket, took out nine copper coins, climbed onto her bed, whispered a few silent words, and tossed the coins onto the bed.
She studied the hexagram formed by the nine coins intently, feeling increasingly puzzled. “ording to the hexagram, I’m not in any immediate danger…”
Lin Wan’er (ni) was surprised. “Is Charlie just being overly cautious?”
Suddenly, an inexplicable tension washed over her. A thought struck her, and she realized, “If Charlie thinks I’m in danger, he must know that people from the Qing Dynasty could being to Aurous Hill. Since I haven’t revealed myself, could it be that Charlie is about to expose the situation?”
With that, she recalled Charlie’s birthday, which she had previously researched. After calcting it and muttering a few words to herself, she threw the nine copper coins onto the bed once more.
Fixing her gaze on the coins, she felt a jolt of realization in her heart. “No… Charlie is the one in danger!”
