African Nationhood

Sitting in the Crown Car, with the man beside her holding her hand tightly, Wu Yuxi was still a little unsure whether she was in a dream.

"Can you pinch me?"

"Ok?"

"I'm afraid I'm dreaming."

Shi Xu smiled, reached out and pinched the white cheek gently.

"Yeah~"

Feeling the power of pain, Wu Yuxi was really sure this time. She glanced at the driver in front of her and found that there was nothing unusual about him. She felt relieved and began to guess who was in Xiao An's family.

She wanted to ask, but she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to bear it after knowing the truth. Without asking, it felt like there were ten thousand ants crawling in her heart.

"You, what do you do at home?"

Although the girl next to her still had a hint of coquettishness, there was obviously a hint of caution on her face.

He smiled and said, "In my family, my mother is a businessman and my father is a high-ranking official, much older than your father."

Wu Yuxi's face turned cold when she heard this, "Ah, you bad guy, of course I know your father is a high official, otherwise how would you be qualified to ride in the crown car? How big an official is he?"

Shi Xu chuckled: "It's a secret for the time being."

Wu Yuxi immediately raised her hand to hit him, but with the angular face so close to her, she couldn't help but panic, and then she realized that she seemed to be too close to him.

She actually smelled incense on him. The smell was like musk and orchid. She couldn't tell what it was, but it smelled good anyway.

Shi Xu saw that the cheeks of the girl beside him were turning red quickly, her breathing was quickening, and there was a faint fragrance coming from the tip of her nose. This fragrance penetrated directly into his heart, and the atmosphere was a bit charming for a moment.

Shi Xu quickly became alert. He adjusted his mind, stood upright, and said softly: "This time my mother wanted me to go on a blind date. I should have been obedient and went to meet her, but you kept popping up in my mind, and I was so upset. Ma took the car and went to the factory.

When I arrived at the factory, I still couldn't make up my mind. I finally made up my mind when I heard you scolding me.

When we go to see my mother this time, I will clearly tell her that I like you and want to marry you as my wife. "

Wu Yuxi felt dizzy at the moment, and the smile on her face could no longer be held back and completely spread.

"Thank you!"

Shi Xu squeezed the little hand in his hand, "Don't thank me, I should have been brave enough to express my feelings to you earlier."

Wu Yuxi was moved by these words, and she leaned her head on the shoulder of the man beside her.

The two looked at each other with affection.

……

The driver in front couldn't stand it anymore, "Ahem~"

This series of coughs immediately woke up the two people who were immersed in tenderness and sweetness. The two of them moved their heads away from each other and looked to one side, with a little fever on their faces.

"Why is it so hot? Open the window."

Shi Xu rolled down the window behind him, and Wu Yuxi secretly spat at herself, "What are you doing?"
The cool breeze blew in, calming down both of them.

Wu Yuxi stared blankly at the scenery outside the window, not daring to look back at Shi Xu.

After finally arriving at the place, the two of them stepped off the Crown Car and stood at the door of the military guesthouse. Wu Yuxi felt an inexplicable wave of fear.

Her body trembled involuntarily, and Shi Xu noticed something strange about her. , asked softly "What's wrong with you?"

Wu Yuxi's face turned pale from nervousness, and she said sheepishly: "I, I'm a little scared."

Shi Xu came over, held the girl's hand, and said firmly: "Don't be afraid, I'm here."

Wu Yuxi felt the inexplicable power through the boy's hand. She took a deep breath and nodded, "Let's go."

The two were about to enter the guest house door when a soft baritone voice suddenly sounded in the air.

"Now this station will play a song that Chairman Shi composed when he was in college. It's called "Moon River". Please enjoy it."

With the rustling sound of a gramophone, a slightly lazy female voice began to sing softly with the accompaniment of a gentle guitar.

Moon river, wider than a mile
I'm crossing you in style some day
Oh, dream maker,

your heart breakerWherever you're goin',

I'm goin' your wayTwo drifters, off to see the world
……

The soothing tone was like a mother's hand soothing two throbbing hearts.

Wu Yuxi couldn't help but nod, "This song is very nice, the Chairman is really powerful."

Shi Xu couldn't help but smile. When you know that your father-in-law is the chairman of the committee, your expression will be even more exciting.

Wu Yuxi relaxed a lot and asked sheepishly: "What does this lyric mean?"

Shi Xu burst out laughing. Seeing Wu Yuxi's embarrassed look, he felt more and more that the girl in front of him was very cute.

"Bad guy, why are you laughing? I just found the courage to ask you because it sounded good to me. You still want to laugh at me!" Looking at the shy girl, Shi Xu's heart burst with sweetness. He suppressed his laughter and nodded: " Don’t be angry, I won’t laugh at you anymore, I’ll tell you what you mean.”

Wu Yuxi nodded, "Yeah, okay, tell me quickly."

"The first sentence means 'The Moon River is no more than a mile wide', the second sentence means 'I will see you gracefully in the future', the third sentence means 'Oh, the dream weaver, the sad one', and the fourth sentence It's 'No matter where you go, I'll be with you'..."

Listening to this, Wu Yuxi felt even more fond of it.

"The Chairman is so awesome. He must have written this song based on the story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to write such an affectionate sentence."

Shi Xu couldn't help but be stunned. He didn't know much about Eastern culture and legends, but it wasn't wrong for Wu Yuxi to have such a guess. After all, his father was an authentic Oriental.

"Maybe. When you see him someday, ask him personally."

Wu Yuxi thought Shi Xu was teasing her, so she pinched his palm angrily.

"Hey, why are you pinching me?"

"Just kidding me, how can a person like me have the opportunity to meet the great Chairman who respects me?"

Shi Xu chuckled and smiled mysteriously, "You will naturally see him when you are with me."

Only then did Wu Yuxi realize that, yes, Xiao An's parents were both high-level figures, and if he followed him, he might actually meet Chairman Shi.

Seeing that the two of them had reached the top floor of the guest house, the corridor was full of people from the security group, and they all nodded to Shi Xu.

This made Wu Yuxi even more curious, "Is your surname really An? If you don't know your name, is it fake?"

Shi Xu thought to himself that this girl's IQ has finally come back, "Well, my current name is a pseudonym, my surname is Shi."

Hearing what Shi Xu said, and the fact that the people in the security group were very polite to Shi Xu, Wu Yuxi naturally thought of a possibility.

"The surname is Shi. Oh, I understand. The leader of the Central Guard Corps is named Shi. I heard from my father that he was a refugee when he first came to Nanhua. Since he didn't have a surname, he took the surname of Chairman Shi..."

At this point, Wu Yuxi immediately stopped talking and said to Shi Xu apologetically: "I'm sorry, did I say too much."

Shi Xu laughed, "It's okay, Uncle Shi won't mind."

Wu Yuxi breathed a sigh of relief, but she quickly reacted, with a face full of surprise, and hurriedly grabbed Shi Xu who was about to knock on the door.
"You call that big shot uncle? Then whose child are you... Ah, Chairman!"

Shi Xu was also shocked. When he saw Shi Jintang opening the door, he blurted out in surprise: "Dad, why are you here?"

The sound of "Dad" almost made Wu Yuxi faint on the spot.

Her face was full of disbelief, her mind was blank, and her eyes were wide open to the extreme.

This news is really, really, really shocking.

A sentence kept echoing in her mind at this moment: My father-in-law is actually Chairman Shi? ! !

……

Shi Jintang looked at the shocked young man and woman in front of him, and then looked at the hands held tightly by the two, and he understood immediately.

"come in."

Shi Xu was the first to react, "Dad, you came suddenly and I was not prepared at all."

Shi Jintang smiled, "You are an underground worker, and you are not very good at keeping information secret. You actually dare to bring the girl back. Why can't I make a surprise attack?"

Shi Xu smiled in surprise, "Dad, I never thought about how to tell my mother. Today, Aunt Li said that my mother would arrange a blind date for me. That's when I made up my mind to bring Yu Xi over. Dad, it's just right for you to be here, Yu Xi Came here to meet my dad.”

Wu Yuxi had not returned to normal at this moment, so she mechanically bowed to Chairman Shi.

"Committee, member, chief, hello, I, I am Wu, Wu Yuxi."

Shi Jintang waved his hand to the little girl, "Don't be afraid, girl, I'm not a lion and I don't eat people, so don't be nervous.

I came here to do some work today, and I was dragged over by your Aunt Alice. She came back in a moment.

You can tell her later, I will not participate. "

When Shi Xu heard his father's words, he immediately found his backbone.

He pulled his father into the inner room and said softly: "Dad, I really like Yu Xi, but her family conditions are very ordinary. I'm afraid my mother won't agree."

Shi Jintang chuckled, "As long as you like each other, your mother won't object."

With his father's words, Shi Xu smiled happily and said loudly: "Thank you, Dad."

Shi Jintang patted his son on the shoulder, and after careful consideration, he still felt that he should be vaccinated.

But there is one thing I want to remind you: the other person’s family situation is ordinary, which may lead to your very different life philosophy and attitude towards doing things.
Such differences will cause your lives to be full of setbacks. At that time, you will doubt your decision today. Can you guarantee that you will not regret it?
Shi Xu nodded firmly, "Dad, I've really thought about this issue. You and mom are so different, haven't we made it to this day? So I think I can overcome it."

Shi Jintang remained silent, but secretly cursed in his heart, dear son, you are still too young and do not understand life at all.

However, you live your own life. I have provided you with a generous life, but I cannot spend every mediocre or exciting day and night for you.

As a father, I can only hope that you can see through the unbearable life and continue to maintain an optimistic attitude until the end! (End of chapter)
