Charlie Wade nced at the clock and addressed her, saying, “Ms. Lin, I’m heading to the mountainside vi at Champs Elysees at noon to meet my grandmother and aunt. It’s nearly time, so I’ll take my leave now. After I finish my business, I’ll return to see you.”


    Lin Wan’er nodded in acknowledgment and asked, “Sir, what should I do with these photocopies?”


    Charlie pondered for a moment and replied, “You can leave them to Miss Lin to manage. You may either store them away or burn them.” Lin Wan’er agreed, saying, “Alright, I’ll have the household take care of it.”


    After seeing Charlie off, Lin Wan’er instructed Qiu Yingshan to arrange for Sister Xian to drive Charlie to Champs Elysées. She then returned to the courtyard on the top floor to organize the photocopies of the “Preface to the Nine Mysteries Sutra.”


    Initially, she intended to toss the papers directly into the stove and burn them.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    However, after sitting cross-legged on the futon for a few minutes of meditation, she suddenly stood up with determination. She retrieved her schoolbag, stuffed all the papers inside, and slung the bag over her shoulder before stepping out of the courtyard.


    As she descended the stone steps, Lin Wan’er instructed Lao Zhang, who was on guard, “Please ask Lao Qiu to prepare a discreet car for me. I need to go out!”


    Lao Zhang quickly asked, “Miss, do you want me to apany you?”


    Lin Wan’er firmly waved her hand, responding, “No, I’ll go alone!”


    …


    At that moment, in the mountain vi of Qixia Temple, the elderly Sister Sun entered the Zen room where Lydia (Ava) was resting. She spoke respectfully, “Madam, the young master went to Zijin Vi after arriving from the ne, likely to see Lin Wan’er.”


    “Alright, I understand,” Lydia (Ava) nodded slightly, smiling as she remarked, “It seems that Charlie considers Lin Wan’er to be the best candidate to share his secrets.”


    Sister Sun agreed, saying, “The young master and she both have numerous secrets, each more astonishing than thest. Once they open up to each other, there will certainly be plenty to discuss.”


    Lydia (Ava) sighed, “The main issue is that Lin Wan’er is exceptionally intelligent. The more Charlie interacts with her, the less likely he is to make mistakes. Not everyone is fortunate enough to have someone who has lived nearly four hundred years to help correct their errors.”


    Sister Sun nodded and continued, “Madam, Master Bruse also left a photocopy of the ‘Preface to the Nine Mysteries Sutra’ for Zhou Peter. After the Master rescued him from New York and returned the Sifang Baozhu to China, I believe he has already received the photocopy. Should we remind the young master not to practice the method within it?”


    Lydia (Ava) replied, “Last time at Shiwanda Mountain, we had no choice but to involve Lin Wan’er. That was ourst line of defense. If Charlie had refused to stop, we would have risked exposing ourselves. Now, we should aim to minimize contact with Charlie. I trust Lin Wan’er’s intelligence; she’ll figure it out, so we needn’t worry for now.”


    As she spoke, Lydia (Ava) suddenly recalled something and said, somewhat flustered, “Sister Sun, Lin Wan’er mighte to Qixia Temple seeking you. To be cautious, I’ll leave Aurous Hillter and go to Mount Putuo to rest for a few days. You should stay here one more day. If Lin Wan’er hasn’t arrived by this time tomorrow, you cane to Putuo Mountain to find me. However, if shees alone, you should find an opportunity to meet her and ascertain what Charlie’s intentions are regarding practicing the ‘Nine Mysterious Hearts.’”<fnce04> Official source is find?novel</fnce04>
