Meng Yao didn't beat around the bush, "I see that you seem to have feelings for Dahe."
Mrs. Qian was a little surprised.
"Dahe's personality, you know, he's sweet-talking and can charm people. Such a person might unwittingly say something that could confuse others," said Meng Yao.
Perhaps he might say, Hong Xing, you're so capable, if I could marry someone like you in the future, I'd be overjoyed.
Though spoken without intention, it resonated with the listener.
A young girl's first stirrings of love can come so unexpectedly.
"I don't look down upon Hong Xing's status," Meng Yao said sincerely, "I'm worried about that kid Dahe, who might be oblivious. He's always at school, and frankly, in these years, you've seen him more than I have as his mother. You know better what kind of person he is. I'm afraid that Dahe might unintentionally lead Hong Xing on and hurt her feelings later."
