The Charismatic Charlie Wade

Young Charlie didn’t understand the feelings of family and country, so he didn’t understand why his father was full of tears when
he said this. But now, when he saw Hogan’s radiant face as if he was reborn, he really understood his father’s burning sincerity.
Charlie couldn’t help thinking that he did not leave his homeland to develop overseas, nor did he forget his original intention, nor
was he blinded by material desires, but his three souls and seven spirits had long since ceased to be complete, because since
the day his parents died and his earth soul representing his parents also went away with them.
Just when Charlie was sighing with emotion, he suddenly heard a familiar voice beside him asking, “Mr. Wade, what are you
thinking about?”
Charlie was slightly startled, turned around and saw that Angela had arrived closer to him at some point.
He was surprised and at the same time a little scared.
He didn’t expect that he would be so careless and even an ordinary person like Angela, he didn’t notice.
Immediately, he came back to his senses, smiled slightly and said to her, “I’m thinking about some old things.”
After speaking, he asked her, “When did you come?”
“I just arrived,” Angela also smiled lightly, then walked to Charlie’s side, looked at the lively scene below and asked him, “Were
you thinking about your parents just now?”
“Well...” Charlie didn’t deny it, gently nodded, smiled self-deprecatingly and said softly, “Although it has been twenty years, I still
miss them...”
Regarding this topic, Angela and Charlie are almost on the same frequency superior.
She almost completely understood Charlie’s feelings, so she couldn’t help but sighed softly, then stepped forward, summoned up
her courage, took the initiative to grab Charlie’s hand and squeezed it in the palm of her hand, as if using this method to convey
her concern and comfort to him.
Afraid that Charlie would think too much, Angela changed the subject and said, “Mr. Chen’s condition seems to be much better
than yesterday.”
“Yes,” Charlie nodded and said earnestly, “He has recovered his heavenly soul.”

After saying that, he saw Hogan helping his old mother out of the car and hurriedly said, “No, not only Heavenly soul, the earthly
soul too.”
Angela asked in surprise, “Mr. Wade also knows three souls and seven spirits?”
Charlie was stunned and couldn’t help asking, “You know too?”
“Of course...” Angela smiled and said seriously, “Mr. Wade, don’t forget, I am learning Chinese and I have been learning Chinese
for many, many years.
In fact, along with the language, what I learned is philosophy and history.”
Charlie gently nodded and said, “It’s better to read, the essence of the five thousand years of civilization is in the book.”
Angela smiled, “Although Mr. Wade has not finished university, there must be a lot of people who want to come to the book,
right? You all know the unpopular Taoist thought of Qi Po.”
Charlie laughed at himself, “I haven’t read a lot of books and I have been struggling at the bottom for 20 years.
How can I have so much time and energy to read a lot? These are little things, my father told me when he was there.”
Angela said seriously, “Actually, it’s never too late to read.
If Mr. Wade can spare time, he can make a plan for himself first, try reading one book a month and then strive to read two books
a month and then go for one book a week.”
Angela added, “If Mr. Wade doesn’t dislike it, I can help you make a reading plan.”
Charlie couldn’t help but ask her, “Should I do it then? Will there be a random check of progress and assignments?”
Angela smiled shyly and said, “I can do it if Mr. Wade needs it.”
