    Charlie had little interest in the Wade Family’s Fengshui practices or the relocation of their ancestral grave.


    His concern for the Wade Family was limited to just two matters. First, he wanted to know where his parents were buried and if he could mourn them privately.


    Secondly, he was curious about who his parents might have hurt and whether those individuals were connected to the Wade family. Beyond these aspects, he preferred not to engage with the family’s affairs.


    After hearing Orrin describe Wadeling Mountain, Charlie inquired, “Uncle Orrin, may I visit Wade Mountain to pay my respects?”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Orrin exined, “Wade Mountain serves as the ancestral burial site for your family and is also significant for its feng shui. The Wade family typically maintains strict control over the area, and outsiders are usually not allowed entry. Even I need to notify the Wade family and schedule a visit in advance. However, since you are a Wade family member, you should be able to go with just a simple greeting.”


    Charlie shook his head, replying, “Uncle Orrin, I prefer not to involve the Wade family in my visit. I don’t want them to know I’m in Eastcliff, so I’d like to keep my distance from them for now.”


    After a moment of thought, Orrin said, “Alright, I’ll call your uncleter to inform him that I’d like to pay my respects to your parents. I’ll ask him to notify the family. You can wear a disguise, and I’ll apany you. After all, you resemble your father closely, and if they see you, the Wade family will likely recognize you right away.”


    Charlie quickly stood up and bowed deeply to Orrin, expressing, “Thank you, Uncle Orrin, for helping me with this!”


    Orrin immediately rose to assist him, saying, “Charlie, please, what are you doing? You are a great benefactor to our family; there’s no need to thank me for this small favor…”


    Charlie replied earnestly, “Uncle Orrin, this is not a trivial matter for me. My parents passed away eighteen years ago, and I never had the chance to visit their grave to show my respect. It means a lot to me that you’re allowing me this opportunity to fulfill my filial duty. How could I not show my gratitude?”


    Upon hearing this, Orrin reflected, “Ah, I see now that I misspoke. This is indeed a significant matter. Don’t worry, I’ll make sure to take you there tomorrow!”


    Angie, who was listening nearby, added, “I’ll apany my daughter. If both of you go, the Wade family might be suspicious, especially since they are aware of our family’s situation. Besides you, there aren’t any other young men in our family.”


    Orrin replied, “That’s fine; we can just have Charlie pretend to be my driver.”<fn30b4> Th? link to the orig?n of this information r?sts ?n F?ndNovel</fn30b4>


    Angie nodded but insisted, “Then our mothers should join us as well. I haven’t visited Brother Wade and Sister Wade in six months.”


    “Absolutely!” Stefanie quickly chimed in, “Dad, let me and Mom go with you too!”


    Orrin agreed, “Alright then, let’s all go together tomorrow!”


    He then considered the schedule and added, “Here’s the n: In the morning, Charlie and I will attend the board meeting. You two can stay at home and wait for us to pick you up afterward.”


    Angie promptly agreed, saying, “Sounds good!”


    ……


    As they enjoyed drinks together, Charlie and Orrin finished a four-jin bottle of Moutai.


    With their appetites satisfied and spirits high, they spent time looking through old photos in the study.


    Many of these pictures featured Charlie’s parents, with the earliest ones taken when they were newlyweds, before Charlie was born.
