Chapter 23: The eldest son of the Shen family was arrested by the police. I was arrested by the police...
.
Galloping all the way.
On the car radio, the host spoke in Filipino, enthusiastically introducing the local tourism industry.
Filipino was undoubtedly a foreign language to Shen Che. This must be the radio station that Uncle Wu, the Filipino who was in charge of the vehicles, liked to listen to.
He didn't like the stability of off-road vehicles, so the car was left in the garage gathering dust, and Uncle Wu was responsible for its daily maintenance.
FM92.7 is a niche multilingual radio station that broadcasts many foreign languages, including Filipino and Hindi.
Chen Che casually changed the channel and switched to an English broadcast.
The host pronounced about as aboat and out as oat, and the pronunciations clearly showed that he was a native of the Maple Leaf Country.
The slender finger bones gripped the steering wheel loosely, and the driver surnamed Shen's thoughts were in a mess. The foreigner who had just spoken to Chi Leyou first ruled out the Maple Leaf nationality.
The exaggerated AU sound is just like the America that is howling next door.
He didn't hear the entire conversation, but he pieced together the full picture of the incident from limited keywords.
——"I didn't mean it."
Is she stupid? If the foreigners say it wasn't intentional, then they don't have to pay compensation? Apologies are useful, so what's the point of calling the police?
——“I can’t find a job at the moment.”
Where does her stupidity come from? She can't hear when people are giving her the runaround?
What a joke! This shabby place is a land of gold if you're willing to work! Worst of all, you could wash dishes in a Chinese restaurant or mow lawns in other people's front and back yards... There are thousands of ways to make money, but the foreigners just don't want to take them.
Besides the extra fat, foreigners also have a lot of lazy bones.
——"Grab a three-month library spot?"
It turns out that God is fair. If he generously gives someone a beautiful appearance, he will take back her IQ.
After a few years abroad, she has evolved into a new species? Maple Leaf Country – Big Spring Green?
The other donkeys were working hard at the mill, but she was so stupid as to be fooled?
.
The local host on the radio spoke quickly: "Welcome, Mr. Wente, the owner of Wente Pig Farm. Hello, please introduce your little cuties."
Mr. Vent spoke in a thick dialect: "This farm uses the happy music method. My piglets love to listen to Justin Bieber. When they hear Bieber's songs, they can eat more feed. I usually feed them-"
The background sound is the piglets eagerly asking to be fed: "Oink~oink~"
Shen Che glanced at the central rearview mirror.
The trunk was loaded with two big things - a car refrigerator and an extra-large storage box, which contained various drinks and breakfast.
He blinked, then looked away and pricked up his ears.
On the radio, Mr. Vent raised his voice: "Reddis and the Cocoon Head Gate——"
"Captain Leopard, eat less. If you gain too much weight, you'll be sent to the slaughterhouse early."
"Mushroom duck, it's no use stretching your neck so long. The pig has a share, why are you so impatient? Where is your demeanor? Don't be so decent!"
"My lord, why don't you eat?"
Host: "My God, the honorable Lord Daihu is sick?"
Mr. Vent sighed, "He's showing a slight tendency towards depression. He's not strong enough to push past the crowd. Look, his stomach is sunken... he's hungry."
"Tsk." Chen Che frowned, gripping the steering wheel tightly. That's too much! Hunger can cause depression?
The young master, immersed in the sound of pigs squealing, stepped heavily on the accelerator.
.
In the bookstore outside the campus gate, the shiny glass reflects the petite figure of the girl.
Chi Leyou looked at the end of the road, but the future warrior's exclusive car had not yet appeared.
Out of the corner of my eye, I caught sight of the window display behind me.
A milk-coffee colored lamb sits among the souvenirs, wearing a white school uniform sweatshirt from his alma mater. The only decoration is the footless bird school emblem on his left chest.
She took a stealthy step closer.
The little lamb is clearer and looks so cute and obedient.
She squinted her eyes, trying to see the price tag on the back of her collar.
9 dollars...?
Not expensive!
This bookstore is located outside the university gate. In addition to selling books, it also has a large area with a wide variety of school souvenirs, including eye-catching school uniforms.
Her university is not well-known in China, but it ranks among the top three in the Maple Leaf Country and is quite famous in North America.
Ten years ago, Chi Leyou watched a variety show from Sun Moon Lake Province. A foreign guest was a graduate of the same university's animation program. She vaguely remembered that after graduation, the male guest went to neighboring America to look for a job. The employer, upon seeing his academic credentials, hired him without an interview.
She likes watching Conan, Doraemon, and the old-fashioned girl anime Sailor Moon... She travels through the animation world, keeps moving forward, and finds that there is a door at the end of the animation world.
The ten-year-old child leaned against the door, holding her breath, trying to hear what the adults were saying behind the door. She wanted to be one of them and do animation-related work.
This tiny seed took root in her heart, merged into her blood, and lingered in her growing years. This subtle desire gradually became stronger, and broke out when her father made the unrealistic suggestion of sending his daughter to study abroad.
Now, she has already opened the door of destiny and stepped in bravely.
.
Chi Leyou wants to buy the lamb.
Worried that Chen Che couldn't find her, she peeked at his location on WeChat and added a note: "I'm at the souvenir shop outside the school gate, I'll be there in 2 minutes. Pull over at the next intersection, I'll come find you when I'm ready."
When Shen Che, who was stopped at a red light, received her "2-minute leave note", his mind suddenly jumped: She wants to buy me a gift?
As a thank you gift for breakfast? The breakfast in the trunk was clearly an apology for his nonsense.
I didn't expect her to be so respectable and particular. Shen Che felt a little embarrassed.
Many girls gave him gifts, but he never accepted them.
In the past, his life principles included two things: not accepting gifts from girls and not accepting gifts from strangers.
Later, another item was added: emmm, I don’t accept gifts from people of the same sex.
He has everything he needs, and he has no interest in what those exquisitely wrapped gifts are.
.
"59 dollars???" The girl at the cashier gasped.
Shop assistant: "Students of our school can get a discount."
Chi Leyou's eyes lit up and he happily showed his student ID.
"10% off."
“…”
She lowered her head and glanced at the lamb. The moment she decided to take it home, she had already given it a name in her heart.
"Mee-mee, I'm sorry." She called the lamb's name softly and stickily.
Yes, her mind was completely blank. She could only call out "mimi" when she saw a stray cat, and "wangwang" when she was walking someone's dog. When she was a child, she would go back to her hometown with her parents and put her head through the bars of the pigpen. With her bright, watery eyes, she stared at the pink piglets.
She called it Paige.
Now, she has left her hometown and come here. Time is like the 10GB data package per month. Once used a little, the data will run out.
Unlike other international students, she does not have a family to support her, as her parents, who work well, use money to support their children’s dream of “seeing the world is so big”.
Speaking of her study abroad expenses, it is ironic that it was the money her father "earned" after making a fortune at the gambling table.
After sending her abroad, her father's gambling fortunes took a turn for the worse. Having lost everything and contemplating suicide by jumping off a building, he wept to his daughter during a video call, "Wow, wow, wow, actually, Daddy's afraid of pain. Daddy's a coward. I'm sorry, little girl."
Chi Leyou said to his father, "Stop gambling, Lao Chi. You work in China, and I, Xiao Chi, will work abroad. Together, we will become working emperors and dominate the world."
The mother's face appeared in the camera again: "Woo woo, our Chi family can still be saved."
I don’t know how my parents are doing in the country. Where do they live after the house is paid off with debts?
Chi Leyou didn't want to care. She couldn't go back home. Nowhere was her home. She could only stay here and train and cultivate herself. She turned herself into a ruthless working machine.
I also worked secretly.
Walking the dog, shoveling snow, mowing the lawn, delivering milk, these jobs are good, although the pay is low, but the Chinese will, because she is well-behaved, secretly give her job opportunities even though they know that the student is working illegally.
Because the Chinese employer was very smart, this little girl could do the work of two people.
Chi Leyou is becoming stronger and stronger and is like a team.
A while ago, she went to work legally at an amusement park.
Local students at the amusement park lined up to bring out a lot of donuts from the dessert shop, and they put colorful candles on each of them.
Chi Leyou was nervous for a long time before he stepped forward and said to the birthday boy, "Open flames are not allowed in amusement parks. I'm sorry to have ruined your birthday mood."
Unexpectedly, the birthday boy generously gave her a donut: "Sorry, it's my fault, this is for you."
She carefully embraced the kindness of strangers, took a small bite in an empty corner, and the overly sweet strawberry flavor spread in her mouth.
Because of this one bite, she had $60 docked from her salary. Life hit her hard.
The donut that was only bitten into was slapped away by the mean supervisor.
It lay limply on the ground. Chi Leyou was stunned for a moment, and thought clearly about one thing: she must not be like Donut, bullied and abandoned, without any chance to fight against fate.
She found the amusement park manager and told him what had happened. She had eaten during her break and didn't understand what she had done wrong.
The girl, who looked very young, had sharp eyes. After exchanging a glance with the person in charge, she set her sights on the various X display boards behind him.
Next month, the theme park will host a food carnival themed "The Last Supper," inspired by the story of Jesus and Judas. Visitors will enjoy a meal as they solve crimes, from Italian to Caribbean cuisine, and finally, Asian dishes.
The cleverness of the carnival design was silently revealed by the girls: So your park is openly discriminating and secretly expecting support from all ethnic groups?
The person in charge was shocked.
That day was Chi Leyou's 20th birthday. She gave her 20-year-old self a piece of advice: Chi Leyou, never be a pushover.
She fought for herself and won back the salary that was rightfully hers. She turned the tables beautifully, turning a bad hand into a better one.
.
At this moment, she was getting better and better, and she exchanged glances with the cute little lamb.
——I’m sorry, Meow Meow, I can’t take you home.
——Master, don’t abandon me.
Her heart melted and her bones softened as she said to the clerk, "Pay the bill."
Meeme stuck out half of his head and rested comfortably on his master's heart, his black eyes looking curiously across the street.
The boxy SUV stopped, the windows slowly lowered, and the flashing double lights were in the same rhythm as the owner's heartbeat.
A hand reached out, and a lazy voice came out of the car window: "Dinner is ready~"
Who is he? Meow Meow was curious.
It is a little maple leaf lamb, but it has been in the bookstore for a long time and has met many students, including many Chinese students. It has learned how to quickly distinguish Chinese people from a group of Asians.
It has heard the Chinese tourist uncle chatting with the Chinese tourist aunt in the same group.
Over time, Meeme became an expert on China.
This seems to be the case with the breeding program on CCTV17 Rural Channel.
The owner ran over, and Meimee's head bounced back and forth on the tit canvas bag.
When it heard its owner wasn't in a hurry to get in the car, it stood by the car and urged: "Drive faster! I told you not to stop here, or you'll get caught!"
The driver—let's call him that for now—pointed ahead and said, "There's no camera here, so where did the illegal parking photo come from?"
The next second, a police car rushed out from the corner of the intersection ahead, with its red lights flashing brightly.
The girl sighed anxiously and paused with her right foot: "Look! People are watching you!"
"..." The driver said aggrievedly, "Hey, I'm here to feed you. If I get caught by the police, you're responsible."
So his main job is a breeder?
"Mee~"
