Hong Changqing was unsure about the gifts that Charlie Wade intended to give to everyone, but he spected that since over 400 people were involved, they were likely items that could be purchased with money.
For Hong Changqing, money was not an issue, but he found little interest in material possessions. Nevertheless, he wanted to show his support for Charlie Wade’s intentions. Thus, he expressed his gratitude, saying, “Master Wade, with all your responsibilities, it’s truly ttering that you still think of us. I would like to thank you on behalf of everyone!”
Charlie Wade smiled and replied, “Master Hong, there’s no need for such formality.”
Hong Changqing responded respectfully, “Master Wade, if you have no further instructions, I will call Miss Ito right away.”
“That sounds good,” Charlie Wade agreed.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">
After saying goodbye, Hong Changqing returned to the martial arts hall, called out to Nanako Ito, and quietly informed her, “Miss Ito, Master Wade is here. He would like you to meet him in his office.”
Upon hearing that Charlie Wade had arrived, Ito Nanako eximed in surprise, “Mr. Charlie Wade is here! I’ll go see him right away! Thank you, Hong Tianshi!”
She then bowed deeply to Hong Changqing, who was momentarily taken aback, thinking, “I’m just delivering a message; there’s no need for such gratitude.”
Before he could ponder further, Ito Nanako had already dashed off.
Before long, Nanako Ito reached the door of the general manager’s office. Just as she was about to knock, Charlie Wade called out from inside, “Come in, Nanako.” She carefully opened the door, peered in, and smiled sweetly at Charlie Wade before stepping inside, closing the door behind her. “When did youe back?” she asked happily.
“I just arrived today,” Charlie Wade replied with a smile.
Then, as he looked at Nanako Ito, he was suddenly taken aback, eximing, “Nanako, howe you have spiritual energy in you?!”
With a mix of excitement and shyness, Nanako Ito asked, “Did you really notice, Charlie Wade?”
Charlie Wade nodded emphatically and asked, “Have you achieved enlightenment?”
Nanako Ito beamed and replied, “I feel like my entire state has changed significantly. My senses are much sharper than before, and I can sense the things around me more acutely. I believe that means I’ve reached enlightenment…”
Charlie Wade felt a rush of excitement and joy! He had never anticipated that someone in his circle could achieve such enlightenment.
This revtion felt like discovering a kindred spirit after wandering alone in the dark, apanion to share the journey with.
Ovee with joy, he instinctively took Nanako’s hand and channeled a trace of spiritual energy into her. He quickly confirmed that her sea of consciousness indeed held spiritual energy, signifying that she had genuinely realized the Tao and was now able to control it, just like himself.
Curious, he asked, “Nanako, how did you manage to achieve this?”
Nanako Ito exined candidly, “By chance, I learned that a revered monk was visiting Aurous Hill to give lectures and perform consecrations. I went to Qixia Temple to meet him, and he insisted that I had a special potential and encouraged me to study Buddhism after bing enlightened. Although I wasn’t interested in Buddhism, he shared the method for enlightenment with me. I tried it but didn’t see any results at first. However, with persistence, I eventually realized the truth…”
“With persistence, you realized the truth…” Charlie Wade said,pletely astonished. He marveled, “Do you know that some people struggle for hundreds of years without achieving enlightenment? You’ve followed the enlightened master your whole life and yet stumbled upon it identally…”<fnbc7b> Content originallyes from FιndNovel</fnbc7b>
Nanako Ito thought Charlie Wade was exaggerating and chuckled softly, “Charlie Wade, you’re joking! Who can’t realize the truth after hundreds of years? Those who haven’t achieved the Tao probably wouldn’t even live that long, right?”
