Charlie hurried back to New York, and by the time he arrived, it was already dark outside.


    Fei Kexin had graciously invited him to stay at her family’s home before he returned, and Charlie dly epted the offer.


    Opting for Fei’s house over a hotel seemed wise; a hotel stay could bring about various inconveniences, while staying with the Feis would be much more convenient.


    As the helicopter touched down, the Fei family had gathered outside, neatly dressed and ready to wee him once again.


    Leading the group were Jian and Fei Kexin, who eagerly awaited Charlie’s arrival.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Upon greeting him, Jian, supported by Fei Kexin, stepped forward and spoke respectfully, “Mr. Wade, we have prepared a banquet for you. Given everything you’ve been through today, I thought you might not have had time to eat. Would you prefer to dine in a restaurant?”


    Having not eaten since he dropped off ine earlier in the afternoon, Charlie felt a pang of hunger at Jian’s reminder. He nodded and replied, “Thank you, Mr. Fei, for your thoughtfulness. I appreciate it.”


    Jian quickly responded, “You are too polite, Mr. Wade. It’s the least we can do.”


    Then he added, “By the way, if you’d like some privacy, Kexin can keep youpany. What do you think?”


    “That sounds good,” Charlie agreed, “I’d prefer a quieter setting, and a simple meal would be perfect.”


    Jian nodded respectfully and said, “Please, follow me, Mr. Wade.”


    The rest of the Fei family watched as the trio entered the vi, and one by one, they quietly dispersed. Meanwhile, Charlie, apanied by Jian and Fei Kexin, made his way to the main vi’s restaurant.


    Inside, avish banquet had beenid out. After Jian invited Charlie to take a seat, he continued respectfully, “Mr. Wade, I’ve consulted awyer regarding your mother-inw’s situation. It appears that if we can identify the mastermind behind it, the issue can be resolved quite easily. The Fei family has significant influence in New York; would you like me to arrange for someone to investigate and apprehend the mastermind?”<fn3d53> N?w ?ovel chapt?rs are published on find~novel</fn3d53>


    Charlie smiled slightly and replied nonchntly, “I’ve already tasked Abbas with handling this matter, so there’s no need for you to worry, my friend.”


    Jian’s eyes lit up with understanding, and he quickly said, “If Mr. Abbas is involved, then I’m sure this will be resolved efficiently, and I feel reassured.”


    Charlie nodded, then recalled something and inquired, “Mr. Fei, do you know if there have been many instances ofpatriots harming each other in the United States in recent years?”


    Jian smiled awkwardly before responding seriously, “Yes, there have been a lot. This kind of behavior has always been prevalent in the U.S.”


    He continued, “However, it’s not just our Chinesepatriots who face this issue; people from all nationalities experience simr situations.”


    After a moment of reflection, Jian borated, “As you know, the U.S. is a nation of immigrants with aplex poption. Many ethnic minorities find themselves in two extremes;”


    “One extreme involves a tight-knitmunity where individuals support one another, as seen in ces like Chinatown and Koreatown. This unity often leads to the formation of gangs among these minorities.”


    “The other extreme consists of individuals who, in their quest to establish themselves in the U.S., resort to hical actions that benefit themselves at the expense of others. Due tonguage barriers and unfamiliarity with their environment, they often target their ownpatriots, exploiting their lowered defenses.”


    “These individuals are inherently misguided. If you ask them to deceive Americans, they struggle tomunicate effectively in English. Lacking the means to exploit others, they turn their crooked intentions toward theirpatriots, who they perceive as easier targets.”


    “In the U.S., when someone from an Italian, African, or Eastern European background is murdered, it is often their ownpatriots who are involved. Such urrences are not rare, particrly among minoritymunities. In some neighborhoods, it’s no exaggeration to say that if there aren’t gunshots at night, residents find it hard to sleep.”<h3 ss="has-text-align-center wp-block-heading" id="chapter-list"><strong></strong>
