    From the moment I mentioned ece227c29e the embroidery lesson, Liliana’s expression 8c64517e7c completely changed from what it 2968f2ca17 was earlier in the morning.df0dd1a38f0a77a2

    Since there were no fd557f829d such descriptions in the 5dbc3ff2de original story, I wasn’t 082f778471 sure, but at the 34b6cdb6c6 very least, her expression 8e487b66c4 was full of confidence.7f472f3392e548aa
