The last time Cheng Hao was making New Year's Eve dinner at Shi Wenzheng's place, he paid special attention to the issue of how much water to add, so the rice he made today was relatively successful.
He mixed the rice with bacon and served it to the table. As for the plain white rice, he fluffed it with a spatula and set it aside to cool, then scrambled it with chopped sausage, carrots and eggs.
When Cheng Hao finished everything, it was time for dinner.
When he raised his head again, the mixed-race beauty who was wandering nearby was nowhere to be seen.
He and Claude had big appetites, and the little rice he had made was not enough, but they had other food too—Arabella had roasted a chicken, and there were boiled beans, vegetable salad, and bread.
The two pots of rice Cheng Hao cooked weren't particularly delicious, but they were universally praised, especially by Arabella, who enthusiastically exclaimed, "Cheng, you're amazing! You can actually cook!"
"I can only do the simplest ones." Cheng Hao said.
"That's great, George can't cook at all!" said Arabella.
Old George coughed a few times when he heard this.
"Is this a Chinese delicacy? It's really delicious. No wonder you keep thinking about it." Arabella took a big bite of the egg fried rice and said, "I think it would taste even better if it were topped with cheese."
Cheng Hao: "..." He couldn't imagine the fried rice with cheese...
After Valentine's Day, Old George took Cheng Hao to apply for a social security number.
When handling this business, Cheng Hao thought about it and changed his name.
He still prefers to use the name Cheng Hao rather than Cheng Jinhao.
Moreover, if I continue to use Cheng Jinhao's name, it might be dangerous!
After finishing this matter, Old George took Cheng Hao to the bank to open an account and buy some insurance.
People here like to use credit cards, but it is not easy for someone of Cheng Hao's age to apply for one, and Old George doesn't believe in credit cards, so he didn't apply for one.
At this time, if a credit card is lost or stolen, someone else can take it and use it, so some conservative people are reluctant to apply for credit cards.
These things were very troublesome to handle and took several days, but after they were all done, Cheng Hao was able to settle down in this country.
"In a few years, when your injuries are fully healed, I will teach you how to drive." Old George said to Cheng Hao.
Cheng Hao agreed.
Since there was nothing else to do, Cheng Hao stayed at home to recuperate and secretly did some training.
His injury healed quickly, but old George didn't let him train, so he could only do it secretly.
For example, right now, he is doing push-ups in the room.
Danny was also in the room, staring at Cheng Hao with his big eyes and frowning in dissatisfaction.
Cheng Hao found it funny. When he stopped, he took a piece of paper and wrote, "Danny, can you keep this secret for me?"
Danny had never learned the word "secret", so he drew a line on it and asked Cheng Hao.
Cheng Hao tried to explain it to him.
Rest time always passes quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it is March.
Broken ribs heal quickly, and Cheng Hao's injuries are now completely healed. He went for a follow-up check and was found to be in perfect condition.
Old George finally agreed to let him continue training, and the matter of taking the driver's license test was also put on the agenda.
Cheng Hao learned to drive very quickly.
Old George felt relieved. He had a bad temper and was a bit impatient, but Cheng Hao never needed him to lose his temper.
He couldn't be more satisfied with Cheng Hao.
There are others who are very satisfied with Cheng Hao.
The match between Cheng Hao and Samo was originally recorded and broadcast by the TV station. The match between him and Crazy Bull was also recorded.
Now, these videotapes have reached many people's hands.
Seeing the performance of the young people in the video, more and more people were moved, while some became wary.
There is only one boxing champion.
For a time, many people began to study Cheng Hao.
Cheng Hao didn't know about this. One day in March, he went out to take a driver's license test.
With a driver's license, it is much more convenient for Cheng Hao to go out, but he doesn't go out very often.
Arabella was in charge of buying food for the family, and Bob took care of some chores. He would go out occasionally, just to take Danny for a walk nearby.
Danny is still a child and needs to go out for a walk and bask in the sun from time to time. At the same time, Cheng Hao will also find opportunities to let Danny touch the flowers and plants on the roadside and let him get in touch with the world.
This should be done by a two or three year old, but Danny had never done it before, so Cheng Hao asked him to make it up.
Today Cheng Hao took Danny out, and after walking for a while, he picked Danny up.
Danny couldn't hear anything, so I couldn't communicate with him by pulling him along, but I could talk to him by holding him up.
Danny is not short, so it would look weird for Cheng Hao to hold him. In addition, few parents in this community would hold their children... Many people looked at Cheng Hao in surprise.
But surprisingly, no one scolded.
While walking and talking with Danny, Cheng Hao saw the mixed-race beauty with a big belly again.
She looked a little bad. She was only sixteen or seventeen years old, but her belly was already very big, as if she was about to give birth.
There are many girls like this in poor communities.
The vast majority of children here are born into single-parent families, and those girls are very likely to become single mothers when they grow up.
Seeing Cheng Hao looking over, the girl glared at him fiercely, turned around and walked away. After a few steps, she suddenly stopped and squatted down, looking a little uncomfortable.
"Are you okay?" Cheng Hao asked. Normally, when he went out, if he saw someone around him who needed help, he would lend a hand, like helping an elderly person move things or something.
Although he may not be thanked, it is just a small favor to him.
"It has nothing to do with you!" The girl glared at Cheng Hao again.
She squatted for a while holding her stomach, then she felt fine and stood up and continued walking.
Seeing her like this, Cheng Hao didn't ask any more questions and continued talking to Danny. As a result, after he walked for a while, he found that the girl walking in front of him squatted down with a painful look on her face again.
"What's wrong with you?" Cheng Hao asked again. This girl's belly was too big, and she was very thin. She looked like she was about to give birth...
If this was an ordinary adult, Cheng Hao would definitely not care about her, but she was a pregnant woman, and an underage pregnant woman...
"My stomach hurts." said the girl. When she looked at Cheng Hao, her eyes were still a little unfriendly, but her face was full of pain, and she looked really pitiful.
"Is she about to give birth?" Cheng Hao asked.
The girl was stunned for a moment, then quickly said, "No, I'm definitely not going to give birth. I'm not in pain anymore!"
After she finished speaking, she stood up and continued walking forward.
She looked fine, and Cheng Hao thought she might have a sudden stomachache and was not about to give birth, so he felt relieved. He took out Danny's notebook, drew a pregnant woman on it, and taught Danny the words related to it.
Every time he came out, he would teach Danny a few different words.
As a result, while he was teaching, the girl in front of him squatted down again, with the same painful expression on her face as before.
There was clearly something wrong with her.
Pregnant women are prone to problems... Cheng Hao walked over and said, "You should go to the hospital."
"I don't have any money!" The girl recovered and looked at Cheng Hao unhappily: "If you want me to go to the hospital, you have to give me money!"
Cheng Hao felt helpless when he heard this. It was impossible for him to pay for the girl's medical expenses. He had spent so much money in the hospital last time when he had a minor injury. Now he didn't know how much it would cost for her to give birth to a child.
After all, they are not related. The girl can go to her family or boyfriend, but she shouldn't let him pay.
"Can I help you contact your family?" Cheng Hao asked.
The girl was about to say something to Cheng Hao with a cold face, but suddenly her expression changed: "Help! I don't know what's wrong, I seem to be bleeding!"
Bleeding? Could it be that I'm really giving birth?
Even though it's March, the streets are still very cold. If she were born in this place...
Cheng Hao put Danny down, picked her up and ran towards Old George, while also calling Danny to follow.
This place was quite close to Old George's residence. Cheng Hao carried the girl to the gate of Old George's yard, but did not carry her in. He just shouted, "Arabella, Arabella, I need your help."
Arabella quickly came out, shaking her chubby body. "Cheng, what's wrong? Why did you bring a girl back?"
"She seems to be about to give birth." Cheng Hao said, "Arabella, can you drive her to the hospital?" Old George and Arabella each had a car. Arabella's car was a Toyota, which she had used for many years.
"Of course," said Arabella, but as she approached she suddenly exclaimed, "My God! Monica! Why is it you?"
"Arabella, do you know her?" Cheng Hao asked. This girl was always walking around the neighborhood... Did she live nearby? So Arabella knew her?
"Monica, you're pregnant..." Arabella shouted towards the house: "George! George, come out quickly!"
"What happened?" Old George came out of the house and asked dissatisfiedly.
"Monica! Here comes Monica!" cried Arabella.
Old George's face changed and he started running. When he ran to Cheng Hao, his face turned black: "Monica, how did you get pregnant? What's going on?!"
Old George looked very angry, but this was obviously not the time for him to be angry. Cheng Hao said, "Old George, she's pregnant and needs to go to the hospital!"
Old George's expression turned even uglier: "I'll go drive!"
Seeing Old George and Arabella like this, Cheng Hao was sure that they knew this girl, but these two people didn't usually interact with others, and... Old George looked particularly angry...
Cheng Hao suddenly thought of something. Arabella had mentioned before that old George had a white wife, and his wife gave birth to a daughter.
Could this girl be Old George's daughter?
Cheng Hao looked at the girl.
She probably didn't feel any pain at this point, and she shouted towards the garage, "What does my pregnancy have to do with you? You never care about me!"
As soon as she finished shouting, she felt pain again and tears came out.
Cheng Hao: "..." He didn't know why this girl felt pain sometimes and not pain sometimes, but he was almost certain that she must be Old George's daughter.
If you look closely, she looks quite like old George.

Painful at times and then painless at times = labor pains
