Chapter 53 I don't speak English.
"Wow, so this is Y country!"
Zhou Ran followed Xia Chenggan off the private plane.
A wave of humid air hits you.
"It seems colder than where we are."
Zhou Ran looked around curiously, like a country bumpkin who had just come to the city.
A special car was arranged to pick them up at the airport exit.
As the empty surroundings gradually came into view, crowds of blond hair and blue eyes appeared, their faces unfamiliar.
The curiosity on Zhou Ran's face faded, replaced by a serious expression.
In his mind, he could be curious in private, but in public, he had to act sophisticated and never show any weakness.
They walked through security surrounded by bodyguards and assistants.
After Zhou Ran finished her inspection, she stood outside waiting for Xia Chenggan.
"I'm going to the restroom, take your time."
Zhou Ran said something to Xia Chenggan and then walked towards the restroom, with his bodyguard following him.
Xia Chenggan frowned at the security personnel, deliberately looking for trouble.
These people were clearly looking for trouble because he was Asian; they kept checking his luggage and asking him all sorts of questions.
Zhou Ran went to the restroom, relieved herself, washed her hands, and walked out.
Before he even reached the door, he noticed someone was following him.
Zhou Ran turned around and looked behind her. There were two blond, blue-eyed foreigners.
These people must have grown up eating something; they're all so tall and strong, probably over 1.8 meters.
He turned around and gave Zhou Ran a friendly smile.
Zhou Ran didn't say anything and went straight out.
The bodyguards who came with him were already waiting at the door.
Zhou Ran walked over and whispered a few words of advice.
The bodyguard glanced at the two bodyguards who had followed him, nodded, and clearly became wary.
They returned to the security checkpoint and were told that Xia Chenggan had been taken to a room for questioning because he was carrying prohibited items.
Zhou Ran frowned; she was being targeted.
He had his bodyguard call Xia Chengjun directly, and that's when he came in handy.
Just as they were waiting for Xia Chengjun's men to come and resolve the situation.
The two foreigners who were following Zhou Ran walked over, whispering and discussing something.
"Hello, our husband would like to invite you to his home."
Zhou Ran looked at the man who had spoken and said directly in Chinese.
"I don't speak English."
The two foreigners looked at the bodyguard, wanting him to translate for them.
"Young Master Zhou, they said their husband would like you to come and visit."
"Who is your husband? State your name."
Zhou Ran was prepared long ago; his arrival here was no secret.
At least Xia Chenggan's every move affects the hearts of some people.
It's normal to encounter problems at the airport.
However, these two were different; they were clearly there for him.
"We're sorry, we can't tell you, but please believe that we have no ill intentions."
The bodyguard translated the words accurately.
This is, after all, a foreign country, and the visitors are being secretive and not saying anything.
They clearly have ill intentions; it's best not to go at this time.
The bodyguard thought Zhou Ran wouldn't agree.
Zhou Ran nodded in agreement. "Okay, let me see who invited me, putting on such a big show."
Seeing that Zhou Ran had agreed, two of the bodyguards went with her.
The others stayed behind, waiting for Xia Chengjun's men, waiting for the young master to come out.
The bodyguard has his own principles, and when the Xia family is not around, Zhou Ran, as the young mistress, has full authority to make decisions.
This is the benefit that comes with having a certain status.
Zhou Ran got into the car with the two foreigners. Judging from the luxury of the car that picked him up, they really didn't intend to do anything.
At least not now.
Looking at the street scene outside the window, Zhou Ran clicked her tongue in disdain.
This place is far inferior to Beijing; it's so old it resembles the old town of J City.
Sure enough, unfamiliar places are filtered, and this filter is too thick.
I wonder if those people who say foreign countries are better are blind.
Oh, maybe not. Those who clamor that foreign countries are better may have never been abroad in their entire lives.
Things you don't understand are the best.
Having eaten so much good rice and noodles, one might be amazed at the occasional taste of excrement.
Their car quickly left the area of high-rise buildings and entered a mountain road.
After turning off the highway, a castle came into view.
It looks like a medieval castle from a movie.
It shows no signs of age, but rather many signs of modernity.
It seems to have been inhabited and well-maintained.
The foreigner scanned his face, and the car entered the electronic gate.
The car door opened, and a foreign butler in a tuxedo was already waiting outside.
He bowed slightly and spoke in somewhat accented Chinese.
"Welcome, Mr. Xia. Please come in. My master is already waiting for you."
Zhou Ran nodded slightly and, led by the butler, walked through the gate along the red carpet.
Two rows of people, dressed in uniform servants' attire, were already standing on both sides.
They came over and bowed respectfully.
Zhou Ran twitched her lips; the familiar recipe, the familiar taste.
People in this world just love to put on this kind of showy, late-stage chuunibyou (adolescent delusions of grandeur).
Zhou Ran restrained herself and muttered to herself.
This is someone else's territory; we can't go too far here.
Thankfully, there were no other programs following, and we were able to enter the room smoothly.
A red carpet, a red leather and solid wood sofa, and an exquisite wardrobe.
Everything conformed to his stereotypes about people from Y country.
A tall foreigner sat on the leather sofa. He had fair skin, blond hair, and a clean, refreshing face.
He was holding a book and reading it.
It perfectly echoes the lyrics: I want the moonlight in the sky and the frost on the ground, I want the light-filled study and the wildness of youth.
This must be what youth is like.
Of course, this is how the young man appears before he speaks.
"Okay!"
His broken Chinese instantly turned the atmosphere from romantic to hilarious.
The boy stood up, especially out of politeness.
Can anyone tell him if having the face of a teenager and the size of a giraffe is harmonious?
"Who are you?"
"I am Alvis Hill. Sorry, I didn't know you were so short."
As he spoke, Alvis squatted down apologetically, lowered his head, and then extended his hand in a friendly manner.
He never expected Xia Chengjun's sister-in-law to be so small and short.
His eyes were full of worry.
He looks so small... so delicate, I wonder if I might accidentally step on him.
In his past life, Zhou Ran hated nothing more than someone who was richer than him and acted arrogantly in front of him.
What I hate most in this life is when someone is taller than me and still looks down on me for being short.
What do you want from me?
Zhou Ran's face was so dark it could drip water. If he hadn't realized that this silly boy in front of him was not someone to be trifled with, he would have turned his back and left.
Everyone he saw along the way was skilled in martial arts.
Judging from their movements, they have all undergone standardized training.
When that servant bent over, you could tell from the shape of his waist that he was carrying a weapon.
The fact that even servants can be equipped with weapons and carry them around suggests that this big, dumb guy has a powerful background, and not some shady one at that.
Why make this judgment? It's because of their behavior and the fact that the place's decor is too ostentatious.
"I heard from you that you were coming, and I'm curious to see what you look like!"
Yalvis looked at Zhou Ran curiously and then leaned closer mysteriously.
He even deliberately lowered his voice.
"Do you have some secret technique that allows you to win over Jun's brother and become his legal spouse?"
What's in it for me?
Zhou Ran immediately understood that this person was after Xia Chengjun.
He had heard Xia Chengan talk about things in Y country before, and combined that with his earlier guess.
This must be the gangster's young master that Xia Chenggan mentioned was mistakenly kidnapped by Xia Chengjun.
At the time, Xia Chenggan seemed to have said her name was something like Wei'er, anyway, it was a very long foreign name, and he didn't remember it.
But that's enough for him to ask for benefits.
Since it wasn't his brother, he felt no guilt about selling him.
Zhou Ran rubbed her hands together in her mind, thinking, "Silly girl, don't let me down!"
“We’re all family. Whatever my sister-in-law wants, I’ll grant it to her.”
"I'm so sorry, but I need your help to find out something."
Zhou Ran was overjoyed inside, but her face remained expressionless; it would be a shame not to take advantage of such a benefit.
"You said, as long as I can do it."
"Help me find someone, see if there's anyone named Ning Yu, or Kerry Ning."
"That's easy, I can find out for you in no time. But what's your relationship with this person and your sister-in-law?"
Seeing how simple the matter was, Alvis patted his chest and said he would do his best to help.
"Oh, he's just an enemy. You just need to help me find clues, and I'll handle the rest myself."
Zhou Ran smiled gently.
Alvis immediately became wary; his sister-in-law's smile was exactly the same as his older brother's expression when he was about to kill someone.
The brighter the smile, the more ruthless the methods.
The last time I laughed like that, that traitor was skinned alive, chopped up, and fed to the dogs.
Alvis patted his chest. Sure enough, he had said that Xia Chengjun was so amazing, his brother must be even more amazing.
How could she marry a useless short man who can't even carry on the family line?
Now it seems that this sister-in-law is no ordinary person.
What's that old saying again?
Don't look down on others! That should be the saying.
If Jerry, Alvis's Chinese teacher, knew that he used idioms like this...
I'll definitely slap myself hard.
Curse your past self to death, you're so cheeky, you impulsively taught him Chinese.
Alvis empowers Jerry to be fearless in his professional field, free from the fear of being left behind by the next generation.
However, he made Jerry infamous in the education field, causing him to lose all face.
"Children shouldn't ask questions they shouldn't; don't they know curiosity killed the cat?"
"Oh, then I won't ask."
That's one good thing about Alvis: he's obedient and knows what's good for him.
"Now can you tell me how you won over my older brother?"
"There are two secrets in total!"
"Okay, go ahead."
Alvis pulled a notebook from under his bottom, took out a pen, and seriously prepared to take notes.
It seems they had been preparing for this for a long time.
It's not surprising that Ilvis is like this. He's just a greenhorn who's never even managed to woo a girl before, let alone a mature man like Xia Chengjun who's so difficult to win over.
After a series of failures, Alvis wanted to try a different approach and cater to the other person's preferences.
Just then, I heard that Xia Chenggan and his group were coming, so I had them brought over.
Why choose Zhou Ran instead of Xia Chenggan?
Zhou Ran is definitely more relevant to this.
Alvis is ready to become a live-in son-in-law.
After being repeatedly turned down, he realized that winning the heart of the beauty was unlikely and too difficult.
However, offering oneself up is still feasible, so he decided to become a live-in son-in-law, even paying out of his own pocket! Author's Note: Thank you to my mentor 9492239 (9492239) for your support, muah! To learn more about this book, please leave a message on Liancheng Reading.
