"Okay, okay, I got it, Mom. I have to attend a press conference later, but I will definitely make time!" Nangong Lin made an excuse and quickly left, unable to handle Li Hui’s nagging.

Actually, it’s not that she doesn’t want a boyfriend, it’s just that her conditions make finding one really difficult!

Those who are suitable in status are either not the right age anymore, or those who aren’t of the same status she seems to not be interested in. In short, if the feeling isn’t there, it’s hard to settle for something less.

So it’s really tough being a single woman these days, especially for an accomplished young woman of a certain age. It’s that saying, too high to reach, too low to stoop, it’s indeed tough. Plus, besides acting, she’s quite a homebody, which makes it even harder.

It’s not that she isn’t anxious, but it’s not something that can be hurried, right?

But in the past two or three years, the little girls like Nangong Ran have gotten married and become moms one after another, leaving her, the older sister, feeling awkward.

Could it be that men nowadays all prefer younger girls?

Alas, she’s also getting a bit older, after all, she’s almost 28.

It seems society is like this: the older a man gets, the more valuable he is, but the older a woman gets, the less valuable she becomes.

No matter how naturally beautiful, one cannot withstand the ravages of time. Beauty will ultimately fade! 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

In the past few years, she was indeed focused on her career. Now that she’s established herself, she’s not as busy as before.

In her spare time, she sometimes feels lonely. That kind of loneliness where when you want to talk, you look around and find no one to talk to.

She once fantasized about her own love story, dreaming of her Prince Charming treating her with utmost care, but unfortunately, it’s just imagination.

Sometimes waking up in the middle of the night, she suddenly realizes how lonely and cold a life alone can be.

But she absolutely won’t get married just for the sake of it; she’s waiting for love.

Nangong Lin, lost in her thoughts, returned to her apartment. As she stepped out of the elevator, she noticed someone seemed to be moving in next door.

This apartment is a top-tier luxury one, with a high price and rent. The people living here are either big shots or celebrities, so whoever moved in next to her must not be ordinary.

Nangong Lin got a little curious and couldn’t help but take a glance, only to find a foreigner standing at the door directing various things.

Nangong Lin was taken aback, and the person seemed to notice her too, surprisingly polite and friendly, bowing and greeting, "Hello, Miss Nangong."

"Hello, you are?" Nangong Lin slightly raised her brows, finding the person somewhat familiar but couldn’t quite recall where she had seen him.

The person introduced himself warmly, "Miss Nangong, I am Prince Alvin’s manager and assistant, my name is John."

Nangong Lin’s eyes widened in surprise, Alvin?

"You live here?" Nangong Lin pointed at the apartment, very surprised. Was it him or Alvin living here?

"It is our prince who will be living here," John said courteously, "I hope Miss Nangong takes care of us."

Nangong Lin was so shocked she could barely speak, and after a while, she finally said, "Alvin, Alvin lives here? Why? Isn’t he going back to B Country?"

"The prince intends to develop himself here long-term." John remained elegant and composed.

"Long-term, development?" Nangong Lin was indeed quite surprised, and before she could ask anything else, the elevator door suddenly opened.

The elegant, dignified, and composed queen unexpectedly stepped out of the elevator.

Upon seeing Nangong Lin, the queen was evidently very excited, her delicate and gentle face full of elegance, she hastily stepped forward, "Miss Nangong, very nice to meet you."
