African Nationhood

Chapter 443 The Second Generation ()

(Some book friends mentioned water, but I can only say that there will be more water parts in the future.

Nanhua has developed into a huge political system, with many people and things in all aspects.

The protagonist's status is very high, and most of the things before him become data and simple reports. This is also a problem that many book friends have said, there are too many meetings.

If you want to increase the sense of immersion, you must change the perspective to ordinary people. Every aspect must be taken into consideration, which is bound to be complicated and detailed. This is a contradiction.

It is also the most common problem in historical writing. Puppet can only try to accommodate everyone's ideas.

The second generation of Nan Hua has not been introduced in writing before, so if you want to understand them, you must lay out some plots. )

……

Zhong Qingsheng's lips curved up and he said softly: "This is my honor, but I don't want to tell you the truth anymore."

Shi Xi put his hand on Zhong Qingsheng's chest, stared at him with black eyes and said, "I want to warn you, for a beautiful girl, using a move once is enough, any more and it will become ineffective."

Zhong Qingsheng was not frightened by Shi Xi's words, "Oh, then I want to try it to see if this move works."

Shi Xi wanted to say something more, but Zhong Qingsheng pushed her out directly: It's time to change dance partners.

The first moment the young man received Shi Xi, a light smile appeared on his face, "How do you feel today?"

"Who is that person? Why don't I recognize him?"

Cai Guoxiang smiled and said, "It's okay, let's continue."

"Sigh~"

Shi Xi saw the second child of the Zhong family so excited, which was in sharp contrast to his brother's calmness.

"You're not in a good mood. What's wrong? Who made you unhappy?"

Zhong Qingyuan smiled sheepishly, "This is what my father meant. In his opinion, being a prince-in-law is not a good man's pursuit. He hopes that we can reach high positions by relying on our own strength."

Shi Xi didn't say anything, just stared at Zhong Qingsheng who had just pushed her over and was talking and laughing with other girls as usual.

He is the eldest son of Deputy Director Zhong of the Immigration Bureau. His name is Zhong Qingsheng. He previously studied in the United States.

So when the rhythm point came, she took the initiative to switch to Zhong Qingyuan's side.

"Nothing special."

The two continued to dance, and Shi Xi focused on the rhythm of the music, preparing to change to the sound of Zhong Qing just now, but unfortunately that guy had already hidden himself in the crowd.

Zhong Qingyuan was obviously a little frightened by the eldest princess who arrived on her own initiative, "Shi, eldest lady, hello!"

Americans are rude and rude. He must be led astray by Americans. You should ignore him. "

Hearing this, Shi Xi immediately understood Zhong Qingsheng's intention. He did it on purpose.

After being pushed over by Zhong Qingsheng, Shi Xi's dance partner was changed to Cai Guoxiang, whom she knew.

Cai Guoxiang took a look and said softly: "Did he offend you? What a rude guy.

"Hello, you are dressed similar to Brother You. Don't you want to participate in this dance?"

Hearing that the man just now returned from studying in the United States, Shi Xi said "Oh", but she was vaguely concerned about the man's indifferent attitude towards her.

Seeing that the expression on Cai Guoxiang's face didn't look fake, Shi Xi couldn't help but apologize: "Oh, I'm sorry, I was distracted. Are you okay?"

After spinning for a while, Shi Xi discovered Zhong Qingyuan, the second eldest son of the Zhong family, and she still had some impression of him.

But the more he behaves like this, the more Shi Xi will mind.

"Oh, you think so too?"

Zhong Qingyuan shook his head but nodded, "Well, I can't figure it out. Deep down in my heart, I am more inclined to my father's expectations."

Shi Xi smiled and said, "Thank you for your honesty. Your eldest brother is just like your father."

Zhong Qingyuan nodded, "Yes, my eldest brother's personality is very similar to that of my father. He never wavers in his goals. Therefore, after his father told him that he had to be admitted to Yale to be successful, he firmly set his goals.

He studies hard and rarely plays around. When my brother and I play with him, he is mostly studying.

Once he was sick and had a fever but he did not forget to read and study.

My mother tried to take the book away from him, but he still held on to it.

My father said that our Nanhua Institute of Technology had a very poor foundation and was still dominated by Europe and the United States, so he chose the chemical engineering major.

While he was at Yale, he followed in my father's footsteps and became the coxswain of the rowing club, leading the team to victory after victory. My father felt proud every time he mentioned him. "

After hearing about Zhong Qingsheng's deeds, Shi Xi's heart moved slightly.

There is indeed something different about this man. In terms of "enough self-discipline", many people cannot match him. At the same time, he is unassuming and even more inconspicuous compared to Cai Guoxiang and others.

But his free and easy demeanor is incomparable to others, which is a bit like his father.

……

After changing partners twice more, Shi Xi stopped being distracted and finished the dance quietly, then politely stepped back and left the dance floor.

Standing on the edge of the dance floor, Shi Xi politely declined anyone who invited her to dance.

When the dance music started again and the men and women on the dance floor gathered together again, Shi Xi became slightly concerned when Zhong Qingsheng did not take the initiative to invite him.

When she saw Zhong Qingsheng still talking and laughing in the middle of the dance floor, the different emotions in her heart became stronger.

……

"How's it going? Did you meet a boy that made you attracted this time?"

Her mother's words successfully diverted Shi Xi's attention. She looked at her mother and pursed her lips towards the center of the dance floor, "The boy in the center of the dance floor who is most casually dressed, I think he is very interesting."

Alice followed her daughter's guidance and saw Zhong Qingsheng, who was dressed simply and with a relaxed look on the dance floor.

"What's so special about him?"

"He is not too enthusiastic about me, and he pretends to be mysterious. Besides, he is very self-disciplined!"

The corners of Alice's mouth turned up when she heard this, "Congratulations, my Sangxiaer, you have finally entered the rhythm."

When Shi Xi heard this, he couldn't help but turn to his mother, took her arm, and said softly: "What's the rhythm?"

Alice smiled, "Usually when a girl is interested in a boy, that's the beginning of her good feelings. If the boy can seize the opportunity, it can basically lead to a beautiful love."

After hearing what his mother said, Shi Xi curled his lips and said, "Mom, your judgment is wrong. Boys don't want to seize the opportunity at all."

After hearing this, Alice continued to smile and flick her daughter's hair on her forehead, "Is my beautiful angel sad? How do you know that the other party is not willing to seize the opportunity?"

Shi Xi smiled silently and bitterly, "After the dance ended, he didn't come to invite me, and I learned from his brother that he didn't want to be the prince consort."

"'Consort'?"

"Oh, dear mother, you have been with father for so long, and you still don't know the meaning of this Eastern word."

Alice chuckled and said, "Then please, my lovely little angel, explain it to me."

"The 'consort' is the son-in-law of the Eastern monarch. My father became the chairman of the committee, and he is the monarch of South China.

I am my father's daughter, and if he marries me, he will be the monarch's son-in-law. "

"Oh, my daughter is so direct now. She has already decided to let him marry you as soon as we met!"

When Shi Xi heard her mother's teasing, she realized that she had already begun to fall?

"Mom~"

Seeing her daughter leaning on her shoulder and acting coquettishly, Alice became even more happy.

“My angel is so beautiful and lovely, how could a boy say no to her?

Besides, you just heard what his brother said, not what he said personally. These are two different things, so I think it's better for you to ask him personally. "

Shi Xi raised his head from his mother's shoulder, looked at her mother and said hesitantly, "Will you do this?"

Alice took her daughter's hand and whispered in her ear: "Silly boy, you have to fight for your own happiness.

You know, if your mother had been as timid and hesitant as you, and had not taken the initiative to throw herself into your father's arms.

Today, my mother can only be a barmaid who stays in the United States and is taken advantage of by drunk white men all day long.

Everything we have today was earned by our mother. You should also work boldly to pursue your own happiness.

But there is a premise for this, that is, this man is worth your risk. "

Shi Xi received her mother's encouragement and took a deep breath. She didn't know whether this man was worth it, but it would not be wrong to start to understand him first.

So she waited until the dance ended and then walked towards Zhong Qingsheng who was standing in the corner chatting with her brother.

This scene shocked most of the people present, except for Alice, who had a hidden smile on her lips.
