"Let's talk?"
Gulhana, who was about to call the children back, turned her head, with a flash of doubt in her eyes: "What do you want to talk to me about?"
"Talk about life ideals and the like."
"..."
If we hadn't known each other for three full years, Gulhana must have thought that Ma Wei had something in mind for her.
Let's talk about life ideals...
Isn’t this the rhetoric used by those self-proclaimed elegant gentlemen to deceive ignorant little girls?
According to the normal routine, Ma Wei (gentleman) should first put on a relaxed and leisurely posture to attract the attention of the little girl. After attracting the attention of the other party, invite the other party to have a drink, which can be coffee or... Black tea, then we have to get straight to the point and talk about life ideals...
Why is it an ideal in life?
The answer is very simple. The so-called ideals usually have certain difficulties and technical difficulties to realize, but your ideal may not be difficult to achieve in the eyes of others. Therefore, Ma Wei (gentleman) can rely on his own Advantages such as wealth, status, connections, etc., show the power of subtlety. In this process, young girls who are not experienced in the world will generally be very curious, and once they become curious...
It becomes the fish that bites the hook.
To be honest, this old-fashioned talking technique is not sophisticated at all. It is to grasp the needs and desires of the other party and quickly draw the relationship between the two parties. Gulhana will not be fooled by this, and she also believes that Ma Wei will not play this trick. ...
So she became curious, curious about what Ma Wei meant by his ideal of life.
"good."
Gulihana sat back on the chair and temporarily put the unpleasant things behind her, "Tell me, what are we talking about?"
"That's literally what it means."
Ma Wei took out a washed mint leaf from his pocket and stuffed it into his mouth, "Ideal in life, Miss Gulhana, what is your ideal in life?"
"Give the children who have lost their parents around the world a home!" Gulhana clenched her fists and vowed, while a lock of soft forehead hair dangled back and forth, constantly covering her firm eyes.
"Is this the reason why you came to New Ross City?" Ma Wei asked.
Her expression stiffened, and Gulhana's originally lively and alert eyes immediately withered, "Father, what exactly do you want to say?"
"I actually don't want to say anything, but I can't help it after being entrusted by others."
Ma Wei shrugged, "You followed him all the way to this remote city, abandoning the wealth and wealth within easy reach. This is a brave performance, but I think you must be very disappointed and painful now, feeling that you have fallen in love with someone. The person you shouldn’t love did something you shouldn’t do.”
"That's not true." Gulhana said, "I don't regret anything, I'm just a little disappointed."
"A little?"
Gulhana pursed her lips and said nothing.
"Do you ever feel betrayed?"
"..."
Ma Wei nodded. He got the answer from Gulhana's reaction and continued to ask: "Have you had insomnia or anxiety recently?"
"have."
“Have you been looking in the mirror more often lately than before?”
"..."
While Mavie kept asking, Yunia and Laiwen stayed nearby, sharing a pound of buttered toast, listening with their ears straightened up as they ate, as quiet as the audience watching a performance.
"Have you ever had the urge to kill someone?"
"No."
"Have you tried other ways to deal with your anxiety? For example, drinking, smoking, or injecting a 7 percent cocaine solution?"
"No."
"Well, the first stage."
Ma Wei silently wrote down Gulihana's answer and concluded: "You are very strong, Miss Gulihana. You are very sensible and have not given up on yourself. This reassures me that you will not do anything at the wedding tomorrow." An outrageous move..."
"Why, he is afraid that I will jump out and cause trouble tomorrow when Bishop Fowler asks if anyone objects to the wedding?" Gulihana sneered.
"No, he actually hopes that you will appear. I am the one who doesn't want you to appear." After a pause, Ma Wei added: "But I will not interfere with your decision, state the pros and cons to you, or persuade you. When you are rational, people will be impulsive and willful. People who can be 100% rational have lost their humanity and can no longer be called human beings."
"Does he want me to come out and cause trouble?"
"This is not to cause trouble, Miss Gulhana. Everyone has the right to express their own opinions, but there are too many factors involved, so it is destined that sometimes people cannot speak their true feelings. But if you feel that you should not be silent, Then stand up and speak out loud what is on your mind.”
"But that would ruin his painstaking plan."
"This is a question you should think about alone. No one can make rational and pertinent suggestions in this regard." Ma Wei smiled slightly: "What you should do is important, but what you want to do is equally important."
Gulihana thought for a moment and said, "If it were you, the priest, what decision would you make?"
"If it were me..."
Ma Wei glanced at Yunia, whose mouth was stuffed with milk toast, and said with a smile: "Don't you already know the answer?"
Gulhana's eyes lit up and she jumped to the door with joy and lightness. She turned around and held up the hem of her skirt. She tapped her left toe back and nodded: "I understand, Father. Thank you for your advice."
"Hey, hey, Boss, this isn't right!"
The melon-eaters read the text with great interest. Suddenly they were excited and rushed forward and said: "Aren't you asking Gulhana to get married tomorrow! This... This is exactly the opposite of what His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince asked you to do!" "
"Is it really the opposite?"
Ma Weidan said calmly: "His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince cannot respond to her feelings. It's not that he doesn't want to. They need an opportunity, and this opportunity is exactly what the Church of Truth can provide."
"First Evolution"
"What do you want to do?" Laiwen widened his eyes and thought of a possibility: "No, Boss, if you do this, the Church of the Three Goddesses of Destiny will immediately focus on us!"
"Even if they don't do this, will they let the Church of Truth go?" Ma Wei slowly shook his head: "Don't be naive, everyone has been enemies from the beginning. Even if Dino doesn't come back, we must leave the Kingdom of Windsor as soon as possible and go to The vast cold land in the east is going to go anyway, so why care about it?"
"Besides, who told you that an alliance must be through marriage?"
Eyes slowly narrowed, Ma Wei grinned, "As long as Bishop Fowler and others think that His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince has no other choice, marriage... is just a way to strengthen the bond between the two parties, and is not necessary."
"Besides, I said, on the wedding day..."
"A great gift to Bishop Fowler!"
