Chapter 438 This is really ridiculous
Walter and Fabian were there complaining to each other.
"I told you to blame it! You have to take responsibility for Xiao getting injured!"
"How can you blame me for this? He can only blame himself. Who told him not to study in the elementary level?"
"But why do I feel like this is a good thing?"
"Well, actually I think so too. It turns out Xiao is not omnipotent and can't do everything!"
“I feel much better when I think about it this way.”
"Yeah! Why do I feel a little bit gloating when I see him looking so pitiful?"
Xiao Peng couldn't stand it anymore: "Enough! I'm still here listening!"
Diane came over with an ice pack: "Mr. Xiao, why don't you apply a cold compress first?"
Xiao Peng took the ice pack and thanked Diane, but he didn't rush to apply the ice. Instead, he looked at Diane with an embarrassed expression.
Walter came back to his senses when he saw Xiao Peng’s embarrassment: “Honey, go out first! The boss is shy!”
"Shy?" Diane was stunned for a moment, then smiled knowingly: "Oh, oh, it's all my fault. I'm going out first!"
Why was Xiao Peng so embarrassed? Because he was injured in the wrong place: he took too big a step while skiing and injured himself.
Skiing is also divided into two schools, one is double board and the other is single board.
The relationship between these two schools is extremely bad.
Snowboarding, on the other hand, represents authenticity and is favored by the upper class and the elderly. In their eyes, snowboarding represents elegance, stability, and a sense of elitism, while snowboarding, a relatively recent phenomenon, emerged in the 1960s and 1970s, and represents rebellion and uninhibitedness.
Compared to skiing, which has a history of thousands of years, snowboarding is relatively young. The first televised snowboarding event was not broadcast until 1997.
Since the birth of snowboarding, the quarrels between ski and snowboard enthusiasts have never stopped, and both sides look down on each other.
As a novice, Xiao Peng naturally has to choose between snowboarding or skiing. Both have their own advantages and disadvantages. Snowboarding is difficult to get started but easy to advance; while skiing is easy to get started but difficult to advance.
Xiao Peng chose skiing without hesitation.
This is not because he is an 'upper class elite', but because...
The ski resort they went to didn’t allow snowboarders on the chairlift!
In China's ski resorts, you can ride either a single board or a double board, but in Europe, many ski resorts do not allow single boards on the cable car, as they think single boards are more dangerous or untraditional, just like the ski resort that Xiao Peng and his friends went to.
Snowboarding requires hiking on the snow, and being wary of the ski resort staff along the way. Ski patrols are tiring, and snowboard enthusiasts are annoyed.
Xiao Peng actually wanted to snowboard, but snowboarders are not allowed on the cable car here, so Xiao Peng started to ride double boards.
When skiing, the skis of your feet are not facing straight ahead, but rather outward. What are the consequences of not doing the outward-facing position correctly?
Xiao Peng explained: He did a split and then pulled his balls so hard that it hurt so much that he had difficulty walking.
His condition was nothing new to the staff at the ski resort. After checking him, the medical staff said lightly: "Just rest for a few days and you'll be fine." Then they brought a wheelchair and Xiao Peng was pushed back to the RV.
Testicular pain is not a disease, but it is really painful when it happens.
Xiao Peng saw Diane go out and took off her ski suit with difficulty, then carefully applied the ice pack: "I will never ski again."
"Really?" Fabian asked doubtfully.
Xiao Peng sighed and said, "That's fake. Actually, skiing is fun. It would be even more fun if I didn't get hurt. Next time, I'll find a place where I can snowboard. The feeling of the wind blowing through me is really great!"
Fabian and Walter fist-bumped each other after hearing this.
Xiao Peng was puzzled: "What are you doing?"
Fabian laughed and said, "Skiing is addictive."
Walter also said: "We Germans call skiing 'white opium', which means that once you start skiing, you can't quit."
Xiao Peng smiled bitterly and said, "But now I really want to have fun. Hiss, it really hurts!"
Fabian said, "Then let me tell you something to distract you. Give me some advice."
"What's the matter?" Xiao Peng asked puzzledly.
Fabian said, "Someone contacted me and asked to privately resolve the matter from the past few days."
"What's the matter?" Xiao Peng asked puzzledly.
Fabian said, "What else could it be? It's about the car!"
Xiao Peng struggled to move his body and stood up from the bed: "Help me to the sofa outside and we'll talk."
"Ah?" Walter was stunned: "Boss, you can just sleep here tonight. Diane and I can sleep in the driver's lounge."
Xiao Peng shook his head: "I don't want to sleep with Tom's brother or sister."
Fabian couldn't stop laughing after hearing this. Walter, looking embarrassed, helped Xiao Peng out of the lounge. Xiao Peng half-lay on the sofa, lit a cigarette and said, "Fabian, what did you just say? Someone wants to solve it privately? Is it the father and son or the two women?"
"Those two women!" Fabian said, "Someone called me and said they'd pay full compensation for the damage and that we shouldn't hold them responsible. They're both influential. The younger woman is a famous German beauty blogger, and the older one is her aunt and manager. She's a pretty big internet celebrity, and they all have financial backers behind them."
Walter was stunned: "Isn't this considered a celebrity? How could he do such a low-class thing?"
Fabian shook his head and said, "Isn't this perfectly normal? Nowadays, there are celebrities who can't even do multiplication. Aren't there even more low-brow internet celebrities?"
Xiao Peng said helplessly: "Hey, hey, hey, your focus is a bit strange, okay? Am I the only one curious that she's an internet celebrity? So? Am I the only one who thinks she looks ordinary? Walter, does her appearance conform to German aesthetic standards?"
Walter shook his head and said, “Believe me, this girl looks very ordinary in Germany.”
Fabian said, "Xiao, didn't you hear what I said? She's a beauty blogger! You don't care how ordinary she looks, after she puts on makeup, even her own mother wouldn't recognize her. With the right makeup and Photoshop skills, even a dinosaur can turn into a fairy. Anyway, someone contacted me and said they're willing to compensate us for our losses, but we shouldn't publicize this matter and won't pursue legal action."
Xiao Peng said disdainfully, "Can money solve everything? In this world, money can solve 99% of problems, but the remaining 1% requires even more money. And the financial backers behind it? Fabian, are you short of money?"
Fabian smiled and said, "I know what you mean! We must abide by German law and do everything according to the law."
