“This…” Charlie felt a wave of confusion wash over him as he muttered, “From what I remember, before my parents left Eastcliff, they were primarily focused on their business. I never heard anything about them being interested in archaeology or tomb raiding. I can’t recall any childhood memories that point to such hobbies.”


    Feng Zidong responded, “Your parents were incredibly intelligent; they kept their true intentions hidden from everyone, except for me, of course.”


    Continuing, Feng Zidong added, “Regarding your parents’ return to China, the truth is that their decision to leave the United States and move back wasn’t as the outside world perceives it. Your father aimed to revitalize the Wade family name in China, while your mother had her own motives.”


    “Initially, they didn’t n to return to China so suddenly. However, one day, your father approached me with news of a significant discovery he had made in the United States. He feltpelled to rush back to China to verify this finding. When I pressed him for details about this major discovery, he only hinted that if everything went well, he could finally address the issues and uncertainties he had been grappling with.” This revtion left Charlie feeling as though his understanding of his parents was being profoundly challenged.<fn57f2> Newest update provided by find·novel</fn57f2>


    Earlier that day, during his wedding speech, he had felt he knew his parents well. Yet, here he was just an hour or twoter, and Feng Zidong was painting a picture of them he had never encountered before.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    After a brief silence, Charlie asked, “Uncle Feng, aside from mentioning that my parents might still be alive, what else did my father say before his ident?” Feng Zidong’s demeanor shifted to one of seriousness as he replied, “Your father revealed that he and your mother had to leave Eastcliff because your mother had offended a very ancient and powerful mysterious organization. This group has been around for at least three or four hundred years, and its influence and background are far beyond what anyone could imagine about a mysterious organization.”


    Charlie’s surprise was palpable as he looked at Feng Zidong and inquired, “Uncle Feng, is this organization called the Poqinghui?”


    “Po Qinghui?!” Feng Zidong was momentarily taken aback, noticing the shock on Charlie’s face.


    Charlie nodded and admitted, “To be honest, I’ve had some interactions with the Poqing Society, though they were limited.”


    Feng Zidong, astonished, asked, “How did youe into contact with the Poqing Society?”


    Charlie exined candidly, “It was purely by coincidence. The Poqing Society attempted to assassinate my grandparents while they were in the United States. I managed to capture one of their members and used that opportunity to uncover clues regarding the Poqing Society.” Feng Zidong was astonished.


    “Twenty years have passed, and the Poqing Society still hasn’t let go of your mother’s family?!”


    Charlie let out a wry smile, “It’s more than just not letting go. My third aunt, who has been married to my third uncle for nearly twenty years, turns out to be a member of the Poqinghui.”


    “What?!” Feng Zidong’s eyes widened in disbelief. “Why did the Poqinghui hide within the An family for twenty years? What does their presence mean to your parents?”
