The Charismatic Charlie Wade

Maria’s journey to the southern province had yielded all the anticipated results. She returned to Dali, paid her respects to her parents, and revisited Heaven Lake, the site where the previous attempt to save Pu’er mother from catastrophe had failed.

Out of the blue, CharlieCharlie announced his intention to depart, carrying no regrets in his heart. Moreover, this visit to the south had unexpectedly borne fruit.

Prior to this, she had managed to skirt Morgana’s vigilant eye and, now, she had stumbled upon the rejuvenated sapling of Pu’er mother, an astonishing discovery. But CharlieCharlie’s proposition to transport the Mother of Pu’er to Aurous Hill made her apprehensive.

Initially, she had thought the reborn sapling of Pu’er mother would continue thriving here. Yet, CharlieCharlie’s words touched her deeply.

Throughout her life, she had been unswervingly tracing the path of failure in every endeavor, meeting only with disappointment. The previous life of Pu’er mother resembled an endless scientific experiment, a researcher striving relentlessly to unlock the secret of a room-temperature superconductor, the data so tantalizingly close to perfection but perpetually slipping through that final barrier.

If she embarked on this misguided research once more, another lifetime might pass in vain, with the outcome remaining unchanged. Perhaps millennia from now, Pu’er mother would endure the heavens’ cycle of reincarnation and yet again falter at crossing the cataclysmic threshold. However, by then, there might not be another CharlieCharlie to facilitate her rebirth through the flames of Nirvana.

With this realization, Maria accepted CharlieCharlie’s decision to bring the sapling back to Aurous Hill. She had lived alongside Pu’er mother for years, not only comprehending her deeply but also gaining extensive insights into Pu’er tea cultivation. Nonetheless, the thought of transplanting the young, fragile sapling was worrisome, fraught with the risk of near-fatal damage.

Observing her hesitation, CharlieCharlie consoled her, “Miss Clark, don’t worry. The sapling has already absorbed reiki, ensuring it won’t perish easily. We shall take it back and nurture it diligently. Perhaps next year, its leaves could grace our teacups.”

With a slight nod, Maria inquired, “My LordLord, when will the plane arrive?”
