When she saw Qin Ze, her eyes were filled with excitement and joy.

She ran up to Qin Ze and threw herself into his arms without any restraint, a gesture that showed the close relationship between her and her cousin.

A playful glint flashed in her eyes, as if she and Qin Ze were exchanging knowing glances.

Qin Ze smiled and patted Qin Yurou's head: "Yurou, you've grown up and become more and more beautiful."

"Brother, you're handsome too!" Qin Yurou blinked and looked at Qin Ze with admiration.

Beside them, a girl of similar age to Qin Yurou also walked over.

Her appearance was ordinary, yet she exuded a unique aura that piqued Qin Ze's curiosity.

"This is my best friend, Lin Wan'er," Qin Yurou introduced, holding the girl's hand.

Lin Wan'er is the kind of woman who makes people feel good at first glance. She has a delicate and pretty face, as if she is a fairy who has stepped out of a landscape painting.

Her skin was as white as snow, with a creamy luster that made people want to get closer and feel its softness and warmth.

Her eyes were like clear lake water, deep and gentle, exuding a tranquil aura.

Those eyes seemed to see right through people, making them irresistibly want to reveal everything about themselves to her.

Her long hair cascaded down like a waterfall, the gentle waves shimmering in the sunlight, exuding a soft, silky feel.

Strands of hair gently brushed against my cheeks, bringing a touch of coolness and comfort.

Her lips were rosy and full, slightly upturned, exuding a natural allure.

A smile is like a spring breeze, warm and charming, making people feel happy involuntarily.

Despite her gentle and quiet appearance, Lin Wan'er possesses a mysterious aura that makes people want to get to know her better.

Every gesture exudes confidence and depth, as if concealing endless secrets that invite exploration.

Qin Ze nodded slightly and exchanged a few pleasantries with Lin Wan'er with a smile.

However, in the instant he spoke with her, he keenly sensed a hint of evil.

This surprised him somewhat, but he didn't show it.

It seems that the character Lin Wan'er does not appear in the original novel.

Could it be because of me that the world has changed?

Qin Ze kept thinking to himself.

Lin Wan'er chatted with Qin Yurou for a few minutes, then said, "I have some things to take care of, so I won't bother you any longer."

As she left, Lin Wan'er's gaze lingered on Qin Ze's face for a moment before instantly shifting away, a faint trace of regret flashing in her eyes.

Qin Ze's eyes were fixed on Lin Wan'er's back. A strange feeling welled up in his heart, as if the girl in front of him was not as simple as she seemed on the surface.

At the same time, Qin Yurou had a wrong idea about Lin Wan'er's behavior. She winked mischievously and said playfully, "Brother, do you want to play matchmaker for me and Lin Wan'er? The way she looks at you is a little special."

Qin Ze chuckled softly at Qin Yurou's words. He didn't respond, but his unusual feelings for Lin Wan'er grew stronger.

Yu Rou blinked, realizing that her wild thoughts seemed to have gone a bit too far.

She frowned, her mind filled with doubt, and couldn't help but start speculating.

"Could it be that Lin Wan'er really has feelings for my brother?" she wondered silently.

She had seen those hints and glances in novels before, which often symbolized the feelings between the male and female protagonists.

Although she knew it was just a plot from a novel, she couldn't help but connect those plot points with Lin Wan'er's eyes at that moment.

"But, it's only the first time my brother has met Lin Wan'er, how could she be interested in him?" Qin Yurou wondered.

She felt that this guess seemed too far-fetched, but she couldn't help but harbor a slight doubt in her mind.

Perhaps because she had always been very attached to her brother, she was worried that he might be attracted to other girls.

A sense of unease began to rise in her heart. She told herself not to overthink it, but she could not suppress the doubts in her heart.

However, she quickly laughed, shook her head slightly, and a self-deprecating smile appeared on her lips.

She realized she was overthinking things. Lin Wan'er was her good friend, and she had never met her brother before. Why should she worry about such a thing?

Lin Wan'er walked alone on the road, a gentle breeze ruffling her hair. Her eyes were somewhat unfocused, as if she were lost in her own thoughts.

She murmured to herself, "Is this the person Mother has her eye on?" Her tone carried a complex mix of emotions, a mixture of surprise and doubt.

At this moment, various guesses and thoughts couldn't help but surface in her mind.

Lin Wan'er is the daughter of Hong Wei, the sect leader of the Mi Huan Sect. This identity should have placed her in the midst of the power struggles and conflicts within the Mi Huan Sect, but she has kept her distance from these matters.

She neither cultivates the techniques of the Mihuan Sect nor participates in the sect's affairs, which is quite unconventional within the Mihuan Sect.

Although Lin Wan'er is different from her mother, she is well aware of her identity and background, and understands that she bears certain expectations and responsibilities.

She is the daughter of the sect leader of the Mihuan Sect, which is why she has attracted the attention of Jin Moyu and others.

However, she is independent at heart and does not want her identity to restrict her choices.

Lin Wan'er walked silently down the road, a complex mix of emotions welling up inside her.

She knew very well what the ultimate fate would be for the man targeted by her mother, Hongwei.
