The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 4758

When Charlie saw Hugo’s expression that was full of shame, his impression of him also changed a little.

He had originally thought that Hugo was just an egoist who was only greedy for glory and wealth, but looking at it now, he still had some conscience.

As for Hugo, he had never said these heartfelt words to anyone all these years.

He himself did not expect to have such a great fate with Charlie to the point that he could speak out the words that he had hidden deep in his heart.

He had been hiding these words in his heart for too long and hadn’t been able to truly express himself because he could not find a suitable person with whom he could confide.

Charlie comforted him and said, “Our motherland is always tolerant of her own children. So, our motherland has always embraced many people like you, who have gone back, with open arms. The reason why our motherland sends talents out for further education is not that she wants everyone to come back and serve the country after completing their studies. As long as some of the people are willing to come back to serve the country, it would already be worth it.”

After pausing for a moment, Charlie then said again, “It’s similar to transporting a piece of ice in a foam box. No matter how tightly you pack the ice, a part of it will melt during transportation, but that doesn’t matter. For the ice transporter, as long as there is still ice left when it reaches its destination, these efforts will still be of practical significance.”

Hugo was slightly taken aback and nodded lightly as he muttered, “To be honest, we were attracted to the Western world back then. We always felt that the stage here was bigger so we would be able to express ourselves better, but in truth, we have never really forgotten about our own country. All of us are only holding back so that we can go back and serve our country if we do well here. It’s just that there are always people like me who are proud and arrogant, but everyone will gradually disappear...”

As he spoke of this, Hugo spoke with tears in his eyes, “I really want to serve my country, but I cannot even feed my own mother now. She is over seventy years old yet she still has to work in an Oskian restaurant to earn money and subsidize the family. I have studied for so many years, learned so much technology, and written so much code, but in the end, I still have to become a seaman to support my family. Do you think I don’t feel embarrassed to go back to Oskia in this state?”

Charlie asked him, “Do you understand a seaman’s work?”
