Sean Knight curiously asked:
"Where did you learn Chinese?"
"I learned it in my hometown." Freya answered with pride, "Chinese people came to build a grand bridge in my hometown. I went to help cook for them, and that's how I picked up some Chinese."
Freya spoke Chinese very standardly, it had to be said.
"Why didn't you continue working there?" Sean asked curiously.
"Because of the war." Freya's voice was filled with sadness, "The Chinese left, the bridge was only half built, and then it was bombed... we lost our homes."
Alright, that's indeed a sad story.
After Sean and Freya finished their conversation, Jason Caldwell chimed in with a smile:
"Freya is the most beautiful and intelligent girl in our village. Unfortunately, war broke out, and later we came here..."
Sean did not ask how Jason and the others came to this place.
He was not a great philanthropist and did not have that level of energy. It's better not to ask if he knew he couldn't help.
