As the hexagram finally pointed to Charlie, Lin Wan’er (ni) felt a wave of tension wash over her.


    She was well aware of Charlie’s strength; most individuals posed little risk to him.


    However, the person capable of endangering him must be exceptionally powerful.


    Her mind raced with thoughts: “Could it be that the other earls from the Poqing Society are heading to Aurous Hill? It has to be! Otherwise, Charlie wouldn’t have warned me to be cautious!” With this realization, she instinctively pulled out her mobile phone, intending to call Charlie.


    Yet, as she held the phone, uncertainty gripped her. <h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    After all, she had been ying the fool in front of Charlie, allowing him to lower his guard around her. If she suddenly took the initiative to warn him, he might be suspicious once more.


    Nevertheless, after some contemtion, Lin Wan’er (ni) resolved that she must alert Charlie. He was her savior, and with him in danger, she feltpelled to act. While she might not be able to resolve the situation, at the very least, she could give him a heads-up.


    With a determined mind, she stepped onto the balcony and dialed Charlie’s number.


    At that moment, Charlie was on his way back.


    As he paused at a traffic light, he received a call from an unknown number.


    Upon answering, he recognized Lin Wan’er (ni)’s voice on the other end. “Brother Charlie, it’s Lin Wan’er (ni)…”


    Curious, Charlie asked, “Lin Wan’er (ni), what’s up? Do you need something?”


    After a brief hesitation, she inquired, “Brother Charlie, could you tell me when your birthday is?”


    “What do you need my birthday for?” he questioned.


    Lin Wan’er (ni) had prepared her response ahead of time. “You’ve advised us not to leave school casually, so I thought you might be concerned about our safety. Perhaps you’re having a fortune teller read a hexagram for yourself…”


    “Fortune telling?” Charlie recalled that during their meeting in Northern Europe, he had seen nine copper coins on her desk. While he had spected they might be for divination, he had never confirmed it.


    He remembered asking Orion Exeor about it, who had mentioned that if those coins were indeed used for fortune telling, they could rte to a legendary hexagram—a practice so profound that even he did not dare to approach it.


    Initially, Charlie had thought Lin Wan’er (ni)’s nine coins were merely coincidental, but now it seemed she might genuinely possess knowledge of the I Ching’s divination methods.


    Still, he feigned curiosity and asked, “ni, do you really know how to tell fortunes?”


    Charlie chuckled, “It can’t be that mysterious, can it?”


    Lin Wan’er (ni) smiled softly and replied, “I’m not sure if it’s as mysterious as it seems.”


    She then steered the conversation back to his birthday, continuing, “Brother Charlie, would you mind sharing your birth date? I’d like to calcte something for you.”


    At this point, Charlie didn’t sense anything amiss.


    Lin Wan’er (ni) had a keen sense of pacing in her speech.


    Although she was already privy to all of Charlie’s details, her inquiry about his birthday was designed to create an impression of innocence, making him believe she was simply interested in doing a fortune reading for him.


    Her reasoning for wanting to read his fortune was sound, too. Charlie had consistently urged them to be cautious, probably hoping they wouldn’t stray from Aurous Hill University anytime soon. It would indeed be strange if he were unaware of this.


    Thus, with this understanding, she aimed to perform a fortune reading for herself.<fn9d18> ???? ????s? ???????s ?? findnovel</fn9d18><h3 ss="has-text-align-center wp-block-heading" id="chapter-list"><strong></strong>
