Hua Wenyin saw through Shi Xi's perfunctory words at a glance and continued to persuade her, "I know you're still young and want to pursue love, but love doesn't have much of a place in marriage. Mom still hopes that you can find a man of equal status."
Shi Xi was unwilling to talk about this matter, so she said shyly, "I'm still young and haven't thought about marriage yet."
"It's precisely because you're still young that I want to advise you not to be blinded by love. If I had listened to my family's arrangements back then, I wouldn't have… Forget it, why am I telling you this?" Hua Wenyin stopped speaking in time and gently stroked Shi Xi's head. "Rest early. Remember, marriage and love are two different things. Love only requires the two of you to love each other."
"However, marriage is a mutual infiltration between your two families. You must be careful and protect yourself. Alright?"
