Charlie regained hisposure, smiled warmly, and said, “Thank you, but please don’t be so formal; we’re not thirsty.”


    As she spoke, Mrs. Jiang was busy washing her hands. Ignoring the droplets that clung to her fingers, she hurried in with a hint of panic. “Two esteemed guests, please take a seat! Our family isn’t well-off, and I don’t have proper furniture. I feel so embarrassed that I can’t even offer you good chairs!”


    “Grandma Jiang, please have a seat first!” Charlie replied with respect.


    Mrs. Jiang hesitated briefly but then smiled and settled down in front of Charlie. With a kind gaze, she curiously inquired, “Young man, you mentioned that your elder knows my husband. May I ask who your elder is and what your name is?”


    Charlie found himself momentarily at a loss for words.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    His initial n had been straightforward: after locating the elderlydy, he intended to present her with a rejuvenation pill, iming to be the son of herte husband. He also nned to inform her that he had purchased a house and a store for her and her son in Shudu, encouraging them to settle there.


    If she were skeptical about his identity or reluctant to ept his help, he had a method to guide her thoughts through psychological suggestion.


    At that point, he would gently lead her to fully ept his story and the gifts he was offering, allowing him to step back without any repercussions.


    However, in the current situation, it was clear that this elderlydy was far from ordinary. Charlie was eager to learn more about her, but asking her questions would require a direct approach that felt too crude for him. He was uncertain about how to proceed.


    Noticing Charlie’s difort, Mrs. Jiang turned to her son and said, “Yaoer, before it gets dark, take your crossbow and go hunt a pheasant. We have honored guests today, and it’s only right to prepare a nice meal.”<fnc216> For original chapters go to find~novel</fnc216>


    The middle-aged man nodded thoughtfully, replying, “Yes, Mother. I’ll entertain the guests while I head out right away.” With that, he grabbed his homemade crossbow from behind the door and quickly exited the house.


    Charlie understood that Mrs. Jiang wanted her son to leave first, so he refrained frommenting.


    Isaac Cameron, appearing slightly taken aback, asked, “Grandma, isn’t it dangerous to go out hunting at this hour?”


    Mrs. Jiang shook her head, replying, “I’m young and capable of hunting. There aren’t many young people around here, and my husband isn’t able to catch game anymore. Pheasants and wild boars are plentiful, and he knows this area well, so I don’t worry about his safety.”


    Then, with a sigh, she added with concern, “It’s just that my son was deceived by someone recently. When he went to Mexico, he suffered a severe injury, losing a kidney and part of his liver. Thankfully, he has recovered remarkably well and hasn’t experienced anysting effects from that ordeal.”


    Charlie wasn’t surprised by this revtion. After all, he had used his spiritual energy to erase the memories of his presence, but the memories of their suffering and mistreatment remained intact.


    Following the olddy’s lead, he expressed his astonishment, “Is that really true? How shocking!”


    She continued, “I’ve never been one for reading; I prefer crafting traps and hunting in the mountains. Finding a stable job has been challenging, and Ick social experience. That led me to Mexico, where I faced life-threatening situations…”


    Charlie offered somefort, saying, “They say that if you survive a great cmity, blessings will follow. So try not to dwell on the sorrow too much.”


    Mrs. Jiang nodded, gently wiping her tears, and then looked at Charlie earnestly. “Young man, may I ask you something? Are you perhaps the savior for my son and me?”
