Chapter 1683


    Nanako knew very well that Charlie''s strength was far beyond her own imagination.


    After getting injured, her master, Kazuki, had told her that Charlie not only abolished and turned him


    into a useless person because he was using brute force to punch him. Instead, he hadbined


    the reiki and internal energy that had often been mentioned in Oskianbat and fighting to


    destroy his muscles and veins. It was that kind of inner strength. 6


    Kazuki himself hade into contact with some ninjutsu masters in the past. Although his actual


    combat ability was a lot worsepared to those ninjutsu masters, he could still at least perform a


    few tricks in front of them. It waspletely differentpared to when he was facing Charlie and


    waspletely helpless, unable to resist at all.


    It was obvious that Charlie’s strength was far greaterpared to the level of the ninjutsu masters


    in Japan. 7

    Nanako knew this very well, and she clearly understood that no matter whether it was her father o r


    the entire Ito family, they would not be Charlie''s opponent at all.


    However, Yahiko did not know this.


    He simply felt that Charlie might be more capable and


    have greater strengthpared to Kazuki and his own two bodyguards. However, he believed that


    Charlie would be inferior if he were to bepared to the ninjutsu masters.


    As soon as he heard Nanako''s words, Hiroshi was a little embarrassed, and he hurriedly said,


    "Miss, I understand what you mean now. Please be rest assured that if the chairman decides to


    confront and fight against Mr. Wade, I will certainly find a way to persuade him against it!" s


    Nanako hummed slightly before she sighed and said," Okay, Tanaka-san. That is all, then. Make


    sure that you let me know if anything happens.”


    Hiroshi hurriedly said, "Okay, miss! I will not disturb your rest any longer!"


    After hanging up the phone, Nanako held her cell phone with both of her hands as she raised her


    head t o look up at the sky. She felt very mncholic inside. 3


    During this time, she had been missing and thinking o f Charlie every day and night. At the same


    time, she had always felt that there was a very slim chance for her to ever see him again.


    However, she never would have expected Charlie toe to Japan!


    She had been separated from Charlie by the vast sea i n the past. She was on this side of the sea,


    and Charlie was on the other side. 6


    Now, Charlie was on the samend as her, and both of them were only about four hundred


    kilometers apart. I t was only a four to five hours drive away. If she were t o ride the Shinkansen, it


    would only take her two hours to get there. 4


    As soon as she thought about the fact that Charlie, whom she had been thinking of day and night,


    was only a few hours drive away, Nanako truly wanted to see him.


    However, when she thought about her current physical inconvenience, her father would certainly


    find out about her intentions if she returned to Tokyo just to see Charlie. Therefore, she could only


    give up o n this idea unwillingly.


    At this time, the dense and dark clouds in the sky quietly dissipated at some point. The stars


    gradually emerged from behind the clouds one after the other.


    Nanako sighed as she muttered to herself, "It seems like it will not be snowing tonight, then..."


    After that, Nanako put her cell phone away as she maneuvered her wheelchair with both of her


    hands to leave the deserted courtyard and return to her own bedroom. 3


    Nanako soaked in the hot spring for a while with the help of the maid. 2


    Nanako’s physical pain was still very severe, and she suffered from severe pain for almost twenty-


    four hours a day.


    The doctor had originally advised her to wear an analgesic pump. The analgesic pump was a


    device that could automatically infuse fluids at a constant speed and continuously pump and infuse


    analgesia into her veins. 2


    Generally speaking, people who had been seriously injured or had just undergone an operation


    should be wearing an analgesic pump so that it would be able to help them relieve their pain to a


    great extent.


    However, Nanako had always refused to use it.


    This was because painkillers would cause certain damage to her nerves. As long as she used


    analgesia 0 r painkillers for a long period of time, it would certainly be more difficult for her to heal


    and recover i n the future. She might even end up bing a useless person who could no longer


    practicebat and fighting in the future. 7


    So, this was the reason why she had always been clenching her teeth and relying on her tenacious


    willpower to resist the physical pain that she was feeling and suffering from.


    The natural hot spring in the mansion came from the underground hot springs. It was rich in


    minerals and selenium, which was of great benefit to the body. It could also relieve any body pain to


    a certain extent. 7


    However, since her body was still injured, Nanako could not soak in the hot spring for a long period


    of time. She could not soak in the hot spring for more than one hour a day. Thus, Nanako was


    always the happiest when she was doing her daily soaking in the


    hot spring. 5


    As she soaked in the hot spring, Nanako could not help but suddenly think of Charlie again.


    She recalled how she had been so shy and embarrassed like a young girl when she went to look for


    Charlie at the vimunity where he lived.
