Chapter: 2871
“Okay,” Charlie Wade smiled and nodded. Then he quickly added, “Oh, I almost forgot about business!”
He pointed to He Yuanjiang and said to He Hongsheng, “This is my mother’s old classmate and friend, Professor He Yuanjiang. The lovely lady next to him is his daughter, He Zhiqiu. You’ll be living in the same community, so please help each other if you need anything!”
He Hongsheng replied without hesitation, “Master Ye, don’t worry! Professor He and Miss He can come to me anytime they need assistance!”
He Yuanjiang felt a bit confused. It seemed strange that Charlie, a younger man, would ask an older man like him to rely on someone like He Hongsheng for help. But he knew Charlie had special abilities, so he trusted his decision. He politely said, “Thank you for taking care of us in the future!”
He Hongsheng smiled and replied, “There’s no need to be so formal, Professor He. From now on, we are all friends, and it’s natural for friends to help each other.”
As He Yuanjiang listened, he sensed that He Hongsheng was not an ordinary person. Even though he was older, there was something special about him that made him seem wise and capable.
While He Yuanjiang was deep in thought, Charlie continued the introductions. “Uncle He, Father He is the head of the Northeast He Family. The Northeast He Family is one of the four major martial arts families in China. From now on, Father He and the masters of the He Family will be living here. You and Zhiqiu can feel secure with them around.”
When He Yuanjiang heard this, he was shocked. He said in awe, “Old Ho, I had no idea you were a martial artist!”
Charlie smiled slightly and said humbly, “Professor He, please don’t be so polite. We are just rough people with spears and clubs, while you are the most respectable because of your knowledge!”
Charlie Wade shook his head helplessly and replied with a smile, “You two shouldn’t be so formal here. From now on, we’ll all be neighbors and will have plenty of chances to talk.”
He Hongsheng laughed and said, “Well, since Master Ye has said that, let’s have a drink together tomorrow. Master Ye, you must join us!”
Charlie Wade smiled and replied, “Alright, I’ll set it up for tonight. I’ll pick you and Ms. He up, and we can have a light meal and a couple of drinks.”
He Hongsheng quickly added, “If Master Ye has plans tonight, we can do it another day.”
Charlie Wade reassured him, “It’s nothing serious. It’s just dinner at home. My wife has been busy with projects and won’t be home tonight.”
Then he turned to He Yuanjiang and He Zhiqiu and asked, “Uncle He, are you and Zhiqiu free tonight?”
“No problem!” He Zhiqiu responded eagerly.
She knew her father had made pig’s knuckle soup at home and planned to cook noodles for herself. She had always loved the pig’s knuckle noodles her father made when she was younger. But since Charlie Wade wanted to invite them to eat together, she was excited and wanted to join him. She thought, if Dad hesitated now, would it ruin her chance?
He Yuanjiang was surprised to hear his daughter agree so quickly, and he felt a little sour about it.
He just found out two days ago that his daughter’s sexual orientation is completely normal. At that moment, he also realized that she might have feelings for Charlie Wade. He felt a twinge of regret knowing that Charlie was already married, which meant they were never meant to be together.
But looking at his daughter now, shy and blushing, it seemed clear that she was truly interested in Charlie. He sighed to himself, “Oh girl, this is serious. I spent the whole afternoon making pig’s feet noodles for you, and now it feels like this is a big deal.”
