In Zuko’s perspective, petty disputes among young women seemed trivial. He used to pay no attention to them, but even the smallest matters held significance when they involved Lina.

He was willing to sit down, listen attentively, analyze the situation carefully, and help her find a solution. It made him realize that his interest in something depended on the person involved.

“It’s only recently.” Lina furrowed her brows lightly and softly murmured, “Since her family became wealthy, she’s been growing distant from me… Zeke, could it be that she’s one of those who despise the poor and favor the rich? She wasn’t like this with me before!”

Zuko smirked and silently deemed it “silly.” Despising the poor and favoring the rich was a common human instinct. No one was entirely noble. Besides, Melissa had already advised Lina to stay away from Gia. Though he didn’t fully grasp the situation, he knew his mother-in-law’s judgment was usually accurate.

“Let it go,” Zuko said after a brief moment of silence. “Lina, true friends don’t drift apart. If she’s growing distant, it means your paths aren’t aligned. Don’t dwell on it too much.”

Lina’s expression turned melancholic. She understood these principles, yet she couldn’t help feeling a tinge of sadness that it was happening to her.

Zuko gently kissed her forehead and smiled. “Partings and reunions are ordinary in life. Besides… I think you’re a bit stubborn.”
