"Mutual learning, collective progress," Wen Mian replied indifferently.
The dialogue between the two was laden with tension, and Wen Mian knew that this assistant was no pushover. She needed to be even more cautious in dealing with this love rival to avoid landing herself in trouble.
As Wen Mian turned to leave, she suddenly heard the assistant say softly, "Miss Wen, don't think that just because you are Mr. Pei's first love that you can rest easy. In this world, there are only eternal interests, no eternal love."
Wen Mian halted her steps and turned to look at the assistant, her eyes revealing a sharp glint. She knew this assistant was no simple character; her words seemed to be hinting at something.
"You're right," Wen Mian responded coolly, "There are only eternal interests, no eternal love. However, I believe that Mr. Pei is with me because of our feelings and trust for each other, not because of interests."
