Chapter 340 - Chapter 340 Chapter 340 You will never get married if you

Chapter 340: Chapter 340 You will never get married if you behave like this! Chapter 340: Chapter 340 You will never get married if you behave like this! “You are…” The stall owner took a good look at Wang Hao and was also surprised, “You’re Wang Hao! I didn’t expect to run into a fellow townsman here!” Then he glanced at Chris and whispered, “Holy crap, is this your gal? Nice, so you’ve started dating foreign women now?”

Wang Hao: “…” Do I look that lecherous?!

“No, no, just a normal friend. We met at Happy People Stage performing crosstalk,” Wang Hao quickly explained. “This girl really likes ancient culture, so I tell her about it when I have time.”

“Happy People Stage?!” Hearing that’s where Wang Hao had met her, Wang Wenjun suddenly asked, “You perform crosstalk there now? I couldn’t tell, you’re really talented!”

“Just helping out temporarily,” Wang Hao smiled. “A classmate of mine is now the mainstay there. His regular partner was sick, so he pulled me in to help. By the way, I heard you went to learn Errenzhuan a couple of years ago. Are you performing now?”

“Yes,” Wang Wenjun said with a smile upon hearing this, “I’m performing at Joy Forest Stage now, every night at half-past eight, 150 yuan a show, tips not included. Running this stall is just a side gig, earning some pocket money.”

Joy Forest? What’s that?

Wang Hao shook his head, “I’ve never heard of it. But 150 isn’t much. The boss of Happy People Stage has some clout, how about I recommend you there? My classmate closes the show there, you two would be a great match for sure!” It’s always good to help a fellow townsman when you have the resources.

Wang Wenjun’s eyes roved for a moment, then he chuckled and nodded, “Yes, yes, that’d be great. I’ll thank you in advance.”

At this point, Chris had picked out an item, a wolf-tooth pendant, and Wang Hao directly pulled out his wallet, “How much for this?”

“Just take it for free!” Wang Wenjun said. “It’s just a little trinket, ten or twenty yuan.”

“How can I take advantage of you?” Wang Hao quickly took out twenty yuan and handed it over, “Keep it, and let’s have a drink sometime! And seriously, if you want to go to Happy People Stage, just give me a call.”

“Brother Hao is so considerate!” The two then exchanged contact information.

After watching Wang Hao and his companion leave, Wang Wenjun looked at the money in his hand and chuckled, “Ah, money from acquaintances is easy to make. Cost five but sells for twenty without bargaining, haha! He really can act, even claiming to know the boss of Happy People. That crappy place only pays a hundred a show, who’d want that? And his classmate closing the show? It’s Zhou Danna who closes, an old guy, his classmate?!”

…

The two wandered the streets a bit more, then found a neat-looking Chinese restaurant. Chris led Wang Hao inside, and they found a quiet spot to sit. Chris asked with a smile, “Was that man your fellow townsman? I heard you call him Wang Wenjun, I thought he was your brother.”

“He’s from my hometown,” Wang Hao smiled. “At home, almost everyone in our village shares the same surname. Wang Wenjun is a townsman, though not exactly a relative.”

Upon hearing this, Chris thought for a moment then said, “So, you mean to say, almost everyone in your home village shares the surname Wang?”

“Yes,” Wang Hao nodded. Knowing Chris was curious, he explained, “For example, our village all have the surname Wang, and the neighboring village all have the surname Li. So, if there’s a young couple from our village and Li Village, the groom’s village decides where the bride goes.”

“So you mean,” Chris pondered for a moment, “like if Wang San from your village marries Li Si from Li Village, if Wang San is the male, Li Si will move to your village. If Wang San is female, she will move to Li Village. Then the children will take the surname of that village, right?”

“Exactly, you’re really smart for someone knowledgeable about the Heavenly People’s Republic.” Wang Hao smiled and nodded, “Many villages in our country are structured this way, maintaining the purity of the village. Thus, everyone is united as family, and it shields them from outsiders.”

“Such interesting wisdom,” Chris smiled demurely, “That’s why I love the culture of the Heavenly People’s Republic so much. I always feel that it possesses a civilization of five thousand years, many aspects handed down from ancient times are full of profound wisdom.”

The girl was quite attractive, had a strong desire for knowledge, and most importantly, she was genuinely likable.

He enjoyed being with her.

Soon the dishes arrived, and Chris, remembering Wang Hao’s instruction on how to use chopsticks, refused to make a single mistake. She smiled as she ate, “Once I return home, I can show off to my friends, telling them that even something as simple as chopsticks in the Heavenly People’s Republic are so exquisite!”

Wang Hao burst out laughing, “Haha, I think that will do!”

…

Inside the Ritz Carlton Hotel in Zhonghai City.

“Father, Miss Chris and Mr. Wang Hao have been out for such a long time; could something have happened?” Smith paced back and forth in the living room, occasionally glancing at his wristwatch, clearly very anxious.

“Don’t worry,” Bruce laughed, “This is the Heavenly People’s Republic, where private possession of firearms is not allowed. Even if they run into trouble, a mere scuffle with three or five people won’t pose a threat to them.”

“That’s true, but you know Chris’s family…” Smith said, shaking his head in frustration, “If something really were to happen to her, we would definitely be in big trouble!”

After thinking for a moment, Bruce said, “That’s a fair point. Go ahead and call her to check in, keep in touch at all times, and at least we’ll have some peace of mind.”

“Alright, I’ll do that now!” Smith promptly made the call and quickly returned, then shrugged his shoulders, “Ah, this Mr. Wang is something else. Chris said she’s having a great time with Mr. Wang and doesn’t want to come back yet. Father, do you think they could spark something?”

“That’s absolutely impossible,” Bruce immediately shook his head and said, “If her family found out she was dating a man from the Heavenly People’s Republic, especially one with no noble origins, her fate would be nearly predictable. Miss Chris is a smart person and wouldn’t do such a foolish thing–you can be sure of that.”

Smith walked another couple of rounds in the room, fretting, “Ah, just hopefully nothing goes wrong, otherwise none of us will have an easy time!”

Bruce snorted and said, “Who told you to get so hot-headed and bring her here without thinking it through? Stop worrying and focus on your work.”

After waiting anxiously for another couple of hours, they finally heard the door open, and Chris bounced into the room, smiling, “I’m back!”

Clearly, after spending the afternoon with Wang Hao, Chris was in a very good mood.

She fiddled with a modest wolf fang pendant in her hand. While it didn’t look very valuable, from her expression it was clear that she cherished it dearly.

“My God, you’re finally back!” Smith finally breathed a sigh of relief, “I thought you were planning to spend the night out there with him, you scared me to death.”

“How could that be,” Chris sat on the sofa, looking at the wolf fang pendant, “He has a girlfriend, and they are very close. I’m actually quite envious! But honestly, Wang Hao’s knowledge is really extensive. This afternoon, I asked him about the history of the Three Kingdoms, my favorite, and he talked for three hours straight! I was nearly dumbfounded, at one point I thought he was a history professor!”

Smith listened, his eyes wide and jaw dropped, “You spent the whole afternoon just listening to him talk about history?!”

“Yes!” Chris replied confused, “Is there a problem?”

Smith covered his face with his hand, “No problem, absolutely no problem, I can only admire Mr. Wang…”

Dammit, perfect conditions for some fiery moments, and these two actually spent it discussing the Three Kingdoms…

If word of this got out, no one would believe it!

“It’s just a pity,” Chris said, pouting a bit, “Professor Wang left after receiving a phone call. Otherwise, I had planned to invite him for dinner and listen to a few more hours of the Three Kingdoms history.”

Smith: “…”

All one can do is bow down to such scholarly prowess!

You, young lady, are going to have a hard time getting married someday!
