When Charlie saw the pained expression on his face, Charlie started comforting him as he said, "Professor Hart, to be honest, you don't have to be too angry and frustrated. It is actually very normal for young people t o be rebellious. Moreover, as far as I know, many geniuses in their own field will naturally be a little more rebellious. Perhaps the more rebellious a child i s, the more powerful and independent their thinking would be. That way, they would be able to do many earth-shattering and amazing things, then!"
Yolden held onto his chest as he said angrily, "You simply do not know how rebellious that girl is! I could simply endure it and put up with it if she was just going to Syria. After all, even though that place is very chaotic and messy, it is mostly just civil strife. They are relatively friendly toward Oskians. But this girl... she... she..." 1
After repeating the word 'she' a couple of times, Yolden was suddenly at a loss for words again.
His face was flushed red, he became angry and frustrated for a while before he sighed and said sullenly, "That little brat! I told her the year before this that she is no longer a child. So, I told her that it is time for her to find a good man to marry so that she could settle down and have children. Do you know
what she said then?!"
Charlie shook his head, and he had a puzzled look on his face as he asked a little curiously, "What did she say?"
Yolden looked extremely depressed as he replied, "She actually told me that she did not like men! She is already a twenty-seven-year-old young woman. The fact that she refuses to find a partner is already bad enough. However, she even dares to tell me that she does not like men and she likes women instead?! Isn’t she simply trying to piss me off?!" 5
Charlie did not expect this answer at all. So, he could only awkwardly reply, "Professor Hart, I believe that she is simply joking with you on purpose. After all, you also said that she has always been very rebellious. If you ask her to head east, she will try and head west o n purpose. Perhaps she truly has no intentions to head west, but she is simply putting on an act so that she can deliberately piss you off!" 4
Yolden covered his face and said, "Sigh! I initially thought that that was the case at the very beginning. However, who would have expected that she would actually bring her girlfriend back home with her last year, and she even told me that she was planning to get married to her girlfriend in a few years..."
Charlie could not help but marvel at this fact when he heard this.
