After sending off the little goldfish, only Aaron Ray and Milton Bryce were left at home.
The two looked at each other in silence.
"I wonder if I'll be able to come back before the New Year..."
Milton Bryce sighed melancholically, then saw Aaron Ray sitting in the living room in a daze. He walked over and patted him on the shoulder: "Stop overthinking, I know you're reluctant, but no matter how reluctant you are, can you really stand up to Master Howard? In life, the most important thing is to understand tact, voluntarily sending her over versus being forced to hand her over makes a big difference."
Aaron Ray listened in silence.
Milton Bryce continued, "Don't blame me for speaking bluntly. The little goldfish is clinging to you now because she's inexperienced, too innocent. If you let her out to see the world, you might be shocked at how quickly women can change their minds."
He nudged Aaron Ray, advising, "Come on, let's go out for a drink."
