Chapter 1626: Go Home If You Can’t Bear It
In the VIP waiting room of Houston Airport, Xiao Peng was sitting there staring at each other with Shao Feng and others.
"Brother Peng, are you crazy?" Zhao Shanhe looked at Juliet and her mother sitting nearby and couldn't help but break the silence. "You're afraid the news won't report you. Do you believe the authorities will investigate you if you do this?"
After hearing this, Xiao Peng said helplessly: "Brother, I'm not lying to you, this really wasn't my idea!"
Shao Feng said from the side: "Shanhe, don't you know what's going on? It must be Juliet who asked Xiao Peng for help. Isn't it said that a day of marriage is a hundred days of grace? Xiao Peng has been married for a long time, how could he refuse such a thing? So he helped."
Zhao Shanhe glanced at Juliet again and said, "Brother Peng, can you tell me? What are you thinking? You can handle such a big woman? It's true that you've been in the Netherlands all year round. Dutch women have the highest average height in the world, but they're not this tall, right? Look at Leia and Charlotte, their muscles are as strong as bulls. Those muscles give me chills! And that Naya... Okay, forget about that one, but even so, your taste is too strong, isn't it? Can't you like something more normal?"
Xiao Peng blinked: "They and I are both innocent!"
Zhao Shanhe curled his lips and said, "Electric Eel also claimed to be innocent at the time."
Xiao Peng: “…”
Shao Feng said from the side, "Shanhe, you don't understand. What man doesn't like to be different? Think about it, if a beautiful female elf and a beautiful human woman stood in front of you, which one would you choose?"
"Of course, choose the female elf!" Zhao Shanhe said without thinking.
Shao Feng looked disgusted: "Only children do multiple-choice questions. Adults, of course, want everything."
The two of them smiled lewdly at the same time. Xiao Peng's face was dark and he didn't know how to refute.
Finally, Shao Feng said, "But... man, what Shao Feng said just now is right. If you do this, you might really get into trouble. That's Beihang University!"
He and Zhao Shanhe said that Xiao Peng was "causing trouble" because Juliet and her mother were going to study abroad in Daxia, and the school she was going to was Beihang University, one of the "Seven Sons of National Defense".
After hearing this, Xiao Peng said helplessly, "It's really not my fault. It's her from Beihang University."
"Huh?" Shao Feng and Zhao Shanhe were puzzled.
Xiao Peng explained, "You're really underestimating Juliet's fame in college volleyball. Have you ever thought about why she received a full scholarship to the University of Texas? After failing at the Olympics, our national women's volleyball team changed its strategy to regain its momentum. More and more naturalized athletes are performing well in our country, right? So, volleyball has set its sights on this as well. Coach Lang used to coach here and always kept an eye on outstanding young athletes here, and Juliet was on her list. Two years ago, she sent someone to contact her and her family, but it was unsuccessful. Now that she and I are on a TV show together, I've been trying to find a way to convince her to come. I thought she'd go to Beijing Normal University, since Coach Lang is there, but she ended up at Beihang University, which isn't surprising—after all, Beijing Normal University is a traditional powerhouse in the college women's volleyball team."
Shao Feng was dumbfounded and said, "Brother, don't tell me that you are picking up girls and the effect of 'contributing to the country' has come!"
Xiao Peng shook his head. "What nonsense! Whether she can adapt to life in Da Xia is another matter. The key point is that she didn't want to go at first, but after what happened later, she had no choice but to go."
"What's the matter?" Shao Feng asked.
Xiao Peng said, "You guys were having fun outside those few days, but you didn't realize her stepfather who ran away is back!"
"Is it that Japanese guy?" Shao Feng asked.
"To be more precise, he's of Japanese descent with dual Brazilian and American citizenship," Xiao Peng said. "He ran away after learning his mother was ill. Then, after watching TV, he realized his daughter was with me. And after I took care of her medical expenses, he happily came back. He even came to me to ask for money. It's almost like he was selling his daughter."
"Hey, your identity is quite complicated! You have Brazilian and American citizenship, but no Japanese citizenship?" Zhao Shanhe said.
Shao Feng said: "There are a lot of people of Japanese descent in Brazil. The football star Neymar has Japanese ancestry."
Brazil was a Portuguese colony at the time. After finally gaining independence, black people in the country went on strike, facing a severe labor shortage. Brazil approached Daxia, hoping to establish relations with the country and allow Daxia people to immigrate to Brazil. However, the Qing government rejected this proposal: Although Daxia was also suffering from the ravages of Western powers, its vast territory allowed for disaster victims to flee to other places.
But the Japanese couldn't afford this. Their people had no other option but to jump into the sea. Faced with Brazil's arrival, the two countries hit it off, and in 1895, a trade treaty was signed. Waves of Japanese began migrating to Brazil, and before World War II, 200,000 Japanese had made the journey. Today, the number of Japanese people in Brazil is close to two million.
Because Hawaii was a shipping transit point for Japan to Brazil, many Japanese people got off the ship in Hawaii, so there are many people of Japanese descent in Hawaii now.
Zhao Shanhe curled his lips and said, "What this grandson did is really shameless!"
Xiao Peng snapped his fingers. "That's right. Actually, Juliet didn't want to go to Daxia at first, considering her mother had just undergone surgery. But her father made such a fuss, and her mother quickly filed for divorce and dragged Juliet to study in Daxia. One of the conditions was that her stepfather couldn't go to Daxia. That's easy enough; they could just deny her a visa. Of course, Juliet is only going abroad to study now. Whether she can become a 'naturalized player' in the future depends on her own performance. Whether she can go to Beihang University is also decided by the higher-ups, so there's no way they're coming to me for this matter."
Zhao Shanhe said after hearing this, "Come on, if you help her, wouldn't it be easy for her to obtain Daxia citizenship?"
Xiao Peng said, "What nonsense are you talking about? Am I the kind of person who would cause trouble for the country?"
Shao Feng looked disgusted: "You've obviously had enough fun and don't want to take responsibility, yet you still say it in a high-sounding way! I despise you!"
"Ugh!" Xiao Peng spat.
Shao Feng looked up at the schedule and said, "We're about to board the plane. Xiao Peng, didn't you also book a ticket to leave here? Why are you suddenly not leaving?"
Xiao Peng sighed deeply, "Don't mention it. Before coming here, I would never have thought that I, a yellow man, would be trapped in America just because my bodyguard is white!"
Shao Feng thought for a moment and said, "Brother, we should go. I know you must be facing problems that we can't help you with. I also know that it's not easy for you out there. Listen to my words. If you can't bear it anymore, go home. There's no place like home!"
