Chapter 644 Suddenly I Like It
In fact, Chinese people are really simple. If a foreigner wants to quickly make friends with Chinese people, he only needs to learn one sentence in Chinese:
"Kill the Japanese devils!"
Hearing William say that he hated Japanese people, Xiao Peng instantly had a good impression of him: "Eat more, eat more. If I had known this, I would have made a few more dishes!"
William smiled and said, “Your cooking skills are really good. Have you ever cooked for Abby?”
Xiao Peng looked confused: "Cooking for Abby? William, did you misunderstand something? I just moved here not long ago, and it was the first time I met Abby yesterday."
"Don't explain. As far as I know, this is the first time Abby has brought a man home!" William said.
Xiao Peng said helplessly: "William, I went to her house for you! You let her, a girl, carry you home? Is that possible?"
William looked at Xiao Peng and waved his hand, "Don't explain, don't explain. I'm not that kind of unenlightened parent. I know this is a happy thing. After all, I've always been worried that Abby is a lesbian, you know!"
Xiao Peng put down his chopsticks: "William, you really misunderstood. I really met Abby for the first time yesterday, and to be honest, our first meeting was not very pleasant."
Then he told William what happened in the elevator yesterday: "I swear to God, everything I said is true."
William's face was filled with disappointment after hearing this.
Xiao Peng finally came to his senses. "Damn, no wonder you came to my place to act like a tyrant and eat and drink for free. It seems like you think of me as your future son-in-law! Come on! How is this possible?"
"Really?" William said with disappointment. "Okay, I admit, even you aren't a good choice. I'd rather he find a white husband with a good family background. But being with you is better than being with a woman, right? Besides, you living here looks like you come from a well-off family, so you should be a good match for her."
Xiao Peng's face darkened after hearing this. "I'd be happier if you didn't say 'Being with you is better than being with a woman.' But William, there's a saying in our country: 'Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings.' Why do you care so much? Besides, don't take it as a harsh word, but if you really cared about her that much, what would you have done long ago? Why did you separate from her mother? Yesterday I thought you were the kind of jerk who abandoned her as a child and now that she's doing well, you want to take advantage of her."
William said helplessly, "Her mother was my senior when I was in college in England. I didn't even know she was pregnant. By the time I found out, she had already married and moved to the Netherlands. Amy was already a grown-up. I went to look for her, but she said it was fine as it was. I could only make up for it with money. This house is what I gave her at the time."
After hearing this, Xiao Peng said disdainfully: "Just give her money? Shouldn't you act like a man and take her back?"
But William said, “My second daughter had just gotten into trouble at that time, how could I rob her?”
Xiao Peng was stunned: "How many daughters do you have?"
"Four, including Amy," William said. "And three daughters with my future wife."
"How many sons do you really have?" Xiao Peng asked again.
William spread his hands: "Zero! Of course, I won't give my daughters any special treatment. They are all my daughters. I love them. There is no difference."
Xiao Peng gave a thumbs up: "Does your family lack the genes for having sons?"
William nodded seriously. "It's true that we don't have many male offspring in our family. Let's not talk about that. What do you do? You said you just moved here? The houses here are not cheap. They are at least ten times more expensive than when I bought them!"
Xiao Peng thought for a moment and said, "You can think of me as someone who's in the scrap recycling business. But I'm on vacation now. I'm learning to enjoy life. What about you? What do you do?"
William picked up his glass: "Pilot."
"What?" Xiao Peng was stunned. "Pilot? Are you kidding me? You made so much money flying drugs and you could afford a house here?"
William also said: "Aren't you kidding me too? What kind of waste recycling can make so much money... Wait!"
After he finished speaking, he suddenly froze in place and stared at Xiao Peng with his eyes fixed.
His eyes made Xiao Peng a little nervous: "William, why are you staring at me?"
William suddenly stretched out his hand directly towards Xiao Peng's face. Xiao Peng was startled and dodged William's hand: "William, what are you doing?"
"Peng! Please take off your black-framed glasses!" said William.
Xiao Peng was confused, but he still took off his glasses. William stared at Xiao Peng's face and suddenly his eyes lit up: "Peng! Peng! Why didn't I think of that just now! Your last name is Xiao! You are Xiao Peng!"
"Uh." Xiao Peng was a little surprised: "You know me?"
Xiao Peng was even more surprised by William's next words. William stood up, walked over to Xiao Peng, and shook his hand: "My idol!"
"Poof!" Xiao Peng almost spit it out!
Being held by the hand by a fat old man in his fifties and called "idol"? This was a new experience that I had never experienced before, but it was a bit exciting.
"William, are you drunk?" Xiao Peng pulled his hand away with a look of disgust.
William replied, "Of course I know you! I've been working in water conservancy projects and marine research for over twenty years. How could I not recognize 'Salvage King' Xiao Peng? I didn't recognize you when you were wearing black-framed glasses just now, but the more I thought about it, the more it seemed wrong! Why did you change your hairstyle and wear glasses? Oh my God, you really are my idol. I even went to Germany to look for you, but something delayed my trip there. By the time I arrived at Norderney Island, you had already left!"
Xiao Peng was a little confused after hearing this: "Didn't you say you were a pilot? Why are you working in water conservancy again?"
"I'm not lying!" William said, "For more than 20 years, I've been a pilot for KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, flying twice a month."
"So you're doing marine scientific research?" Xiao Peng asked puzzledly.
William nodded. "I graduated from the History Department of Leiden University in the UK. But as you know, the Netherlands is a low-lying country, so we have to always pay attention to issues related to the sea and rivers. I mentioned earlier that I have been to China twice. I was a witness when your country and the Netherlands signed the 'Protecting the Yellow River Delta Ecosystem' cooperation agreement."
Xiao Peng was dumbfounded: "Are you a Dutch water conservancy official?"
William suddenly straightened his appearance and said seriously, "Please allow me to formally introduce myself. My full name is: William Alexander Claus George Ferdinand! I've always wanted to meet you, but I didn't expect to meet you by chance like this. Is this what you Chinese people call fate?"
As a result, Xiao Peng blurted out two words after hearing this: "Damn it!"
