Chapter 392
Kim still dressed casually and carried himself with grace and charm, even at his age.
When he turned around and saw that it was her, he smiled in a very approachable way, "Miss Lim,
what a coincidence!"
"How are you doing?" Wendy couldn''t help but ask first.
"I''m fine now!" Kim smiled a little deeper after heard that, "By the way, thanks to the local method
you told me about earlier, it really works! And,tely, I''ve also been feeling a lot more rxed in my
stomach, and even senior TCM doctors say I''m doing a great job of recuperating!"
"You''re wee, as long as it works for you!" Wendy smiled and shook her head.
Kim looked back inside themercial building, smiled, and spoke up, saying, "There''s a cinema
up here, Miss Lim must havee with friends to see a movie, right?"
When Wendy was asked this question, she suddenly thought of Kim''s identity.
He''s not only an elder that she thought was easy to get along with, but he''s also Madge''s father...
"Well, yes, he went to get his car..." Wendy nodded her head with hesitation.
While she was hesitating to make it clear, Kim had already spoken again, "Coincidentally, my driver
has also gone to fetch the car. Ie to the bookstore to buy a book!"
"You didn''t pick the one you like?" Wendy saw that his hands were empty.
"No." Kim shook his head with his hands spread out, and there was some disappointment in his
tone and expression. "Perhaps the book I wanted to buy was so cold and dated that few people
were reading it. Plus, it''s a German tranted novel, so it''s even more difficult to find!"
"A German tranted novel?" Wendy asked in surprise as she heard thetter part of the story.
"Yes, it''s written by Heinrich Berl, he''s a German writer, was once awarded the Nobel Prize for
Literature! And while enrolled in school, he was drafted into the army, fought in World War II, and
was wounded and taken prisoner, and his work has a lot of scrutiny and criticism, and although he
has passed away, he is still known as the ''conscience of Germany''!"
Kim finished in one breath, seemed to realize that he had acted too excitedly, and was too busy
laughing to exin, saying, "Sorry, I got a little excited talking about it. Since I studied in Germany
and then lived there for many years, I''ve read a bit about some of the culture there! Miss Lim, being
so young, is probably not interested in this foreign literature!"
After hearing what he said, Wendy had a thoughtful look on her face.
"May I ask the name of the novel?" She thought for a moment and asked tentatively. "Ansichten
eines Clowns.1'' replied Kim. ''''Also, there is a movie of the same name based on the novel."
"''Ansichten eines Clowns?" Wendy was surprised once again as she repeated.
After he nodded, she couldn''t help murmuring, "What a coincidence..."
"Miss Lim, what''s wrong?" Kim asked in confusion.
Wendy smiled and said, "I just happen to have this novel, and it''s in the original edition! Because it''s
important to me, Mr. Gray, if you want to read it, I''m sorry, but I can only lend it to you!"
He just said a bunch of long speeches, and she was actually very confused.
However, she was very familiar with the name of the writer. It was not that she knew much about
German literature, but that her mother had not left many things behind. She always kept the novel in
a safe ce, reading it often from her childhood, remembering its contents and the name of the
author vividly.
When Kim heard it, the lines under his eyes shook with excitement, and he almost came forward to
hold her hand, "Really! Does Miss Lim have this novel, and it''s an original?"
"Yes!" Wendy nodded.
"That''s great! Please lend it to me!" Kim''s eyes widened.
When Wendy saw this, she hurriedly said, "Okay, I''ll find itter, and then I''ll call you another day!"
"It''s a deal!" Kim was overjoyed. Because there was an agreement to lend the book, the two pulled
out their cell phones and temporarily exchanged each other''s contact information for convenience.
After the phone number was saved, Kim looked up from the phone and pointed to the back of her.
"That white Land Rover has been driving around for a while, and it looks like Charlie''s inside. Miss
Lim, he must be waiting for you, right?"
"Well..." Wendy turned back and saw the white Land Rover.
Charlie sat in the driver''s seat with no intention of getting off the car. With a lit cigarette in his hand,
he looked straight at them with his deep eyes.
Kim put the phone back in his pocket with a smile and said, "It''s no wonder that Madge looks so
depressed every day these days!"
"Mr. Gray, Charlie and I..." Wendy frowned, not knowing how to exin her rtionship with Charlie.
"Don''t get me wrong! I didn''t mean to me you!" Kim interrupted her, and his tone was still friendly.
"Actually, at the karaoke, I thought there was something between you and Charlie, but it seems to
have confirmed my thoughts. But don''t worry, I didn''t mean to be hypocritical just now, I really didn''t
mean to me you! Although I''m Madge''s father, I always respect your young people''s choices and
am quite insistent that love can''t be forced!"
Upon hearing this, Wendy was stunned.
Like the tone of his voice, he was acting like a gentleman, and there was no falsehood in it. She
said gratefully, "Mr. Gray, thank you!"

"You''re wee!" Kim waved his hand and thenforted her. "Don''t feel sorry for me. Don''t forget
to lend the book to me. My driver is here too. Miss Lim, I''ll be waiting for your call!"
"Okay!" Wendy nodded.
After waving his hand to say goodbye, Kim strode to the side of the road. While Kim was getting into
the car, Wendy also turned around, trotted to the Land Rover, opened the door and sat in.
She fastened the seat belt and Charlie didn''t start the engine. She turned her head and asked,
"Charlie, aren''t we leaving?"
"You''re finally back?"
Charlie flicked his cigarette ash and spoke at the same time as her.
Why did he sound so grumpy?
When Wendy saw Charlie''s stern face, she could not help but exin, "I just happened to see Mr.
Gray in front of the bookstore, so I went up to say hello and had a chat."
"Can''t you just pretend you don''t see him?" Charlie snorted.
"That would be too rude..." Wendy said innocently.
After all, every time they met, Kim was very friendly and came forward to say hello to her, which
was also the reason why she just took the initiative to go there.
Charlie narrowed his deep eyes and asked, "Have you forgotten who he is?" "I know..." Wendy
blinked her eyes.
"Then why did you still talk with him?" Charlie began to re at her.
