Great Power

The seafood restaurant opened by a chef who retired from Sheraton, Zheng Jianguo saw on Fiona’s face as if a patient talked about a clinic opened by an old Chinese doctor decades later. Of course, this idea just wandered in his mind. Next, this can be regarded as showing from the side that both China and foreign countries attach importance to experience.

It’s just that Zheng Jianguo can hardly imagine what kind of flowers can be eaten with steamed seafood based on experience. Only when he looks at Fiona’s exquisite cheeks, he has a little expectation. Maybe it’s really delicious. ?

The meat is not bad!

Zheng Jianguo is a carnivorous animal. To be precise, he and countless Chinese people have the same eating and drinking hobbies, that is, no meat is not happy. Based on his living habits in the past year, he knows that seafood shops can do anything. In addition to lobsters, it is also crabs, and most of the opportunities for oysters to appear are soups——

Fortunately, Zheng Jianguo’s attention was not on eating at the moment. Then he and Fiona would talk and laugh from time to time in the eyes of Kavran and Walton, and the two of them just smiled and then shifted. Attention, these two people are not as part of the meeting as they are in the world.

Zheng Jianguo is famous enough, but he is only a fledgling newcomer. Even if the previous speeches were recognized by the participants, there was no chance to be on stage in the branch this time. If it weren’t for the Society of Gastroenterology tomorrow morning. He originally planned to return to Boston in the afternoon.

At this time, with Fiona, Zheng Jianguo's interest was much higher. As the meeting ended and collected the manuscripts, when he got up again, Kavlan and Walton were gone, only Fei holding the coat was left. Ona stood by, and he picked up his own bag and overcoat and put it on: "Let's go, shall we go back to the restaurant before eating?"

"You can go to eat first and then go back to the restaurant—"

Since it was a group activity that came in the name of the association, the place where the few people lived was also in the hotel booked with other people. At this moment, the two followed the crowd before they reached the door, and they saw a lot of people blocking the entrance: " It's raining--"

"It seems to be big--"

Zheng Jianguo accompanied Fiona to the glass window in the lobby, and saw the waiter pushing the umbrella of the car. Before he could speak, he listened to the latter saying: "It looks like I can't go anymore--or let's take a look at night. Go again?"

There were a lot of people at the door and a little less taxis. When Zheng Jianguo and Fiona arrived at the door, someone else squeezed over: "Hey, Zheng, let’s take a car and go back to the hotel together—"

"Oh Kay, Dr. Kechia, then go back together."

Turning his head and looking at the person who was talking, Zheng Jianguo stumbled before remembering that this was a council member of the association. He turned to look at Fiona. Keqia had already turned his head and nodded at her. The latter also said with a smile: "Then let's just have a car."

"thanks, thanks."

Keqia said that when the car came and opened the door and got into the co-pilot, Zheng Jianguo opened the back door and let Fiona in first. Then he got into the car. Keqia in front of him had already reported to the hotel. At the address, the taxi rushed into the rain.

The world outside the window was blurred by the pouring rain, and the harsh flute could not help being wiped from far and near. The taxi driver spoke with a thick nasal voice and said: "Hi, doctors, it's really unfortunate that you came here. Said this rain will last a long time—"

The sun was still shining in the morning, and now it was pouring rain. It is true that Zheng Jianguo has lived in Boston for a year, and he is a little uncomfortable with this degree of weather changes. After hearing the driver say this, he immediately remembered his plane tomorrow afternoon. Then he opened his mouth and said, "Will the airport be closed?"

"No, the rain is not too heavy. The airport is mainly afraid of thunderstorm clouds—"

The driver said in a very stable manner that the car turned a corner and quickly stopped at the entrance of the hotel. It took only four to five minutes to walk for ten minutes and drive: "3 dollars and 50 cents, thank you!"

"Hi, let me give the money—"

When Keqia in the co-pilot spoke and took out his wallet, Zheng Jianguo had already handed out the five dollars in his hand: "I have a chance to let you pay again in the future—"

"Oh, thank you then, Zheng~"

Keqia said that he got out of the car through the door opened by the waiter. Zheng Jianguo took the recovered money and got out of the car. The probing hand was put into the hands of the waiter who opened the door: "Thank you!"

"Thank you, sir!"

Looking at the one dollar and 50 cents in his hand, the waiter smiled and put it in his pocket and closed the car door. After entering the door, Zheng Jianguo heard Fiona smile and said, "Where is you like this?" Tipping—"

"No one will tip the doorman. I originally wanted to give him the 50 cents because ten coins are too heavy—"

The coins in the U.S. dollar are not only 5 cents in face value, but are composed of 1 cent, 5 cents, 10 cents, 25 cents, 50 cents, and 1 yuan. Previously, the taxi driver gave him 10 5 cents. For cents, Zheng Jianguo only gave the doorman to avoid falling: "This is the first time I tip someone. I have never been to such a high-class hotel before—"

Speaking of the two entering the elevator to the 5th floor, Zheng Jianguo looked at the two rows of rooms in front of the elevator and said, "Okay, see you in the restaurant at noon~"

"I can call you~"

Fiona stroked the long wavy hair in her ear and said, Zheng Jianguo also smiled and nodded: "That's fine too—"

Since the room is set by the association, most of this floor is composed of members and directors of the Gastroenterology Association. Although Zheng Jianguo felt that he could communicate with this girl in certain aspects, he did not expect to be able to spread his own people around. What happens in the situation.

Until he opened the door with a touch of regret and put the don’t disturb sign on the door handle, only to see Fiona, who was supposed to keep going forward, glanced at the sign, then turned around and pushed him into the room. Inside, he closed the door—the sign hanging on the doorknob dangled and fell to the ground.

After a long time, Zheng Jianguo woke up from the pink world, stroking the big golden wavy hair and subconsciously said: "Perm is not good for hair quality and scalp, a simple ponytail is good—"

"Why, do you want to continue to develop with me?"

Fiona opened her blue eyes from the confusion, raised her upper body and let Zheng Jianguo's eyes stay on her exaggeration. She pointed her finger at the red marks on her body and said: "You don't want to fall in love with me, right? ?"

"what?"

Zheng Jianguo's gaze quickly lifted from the pink flamboyant, and he saw Fiona, who had a flushed face, with a surprised face. He couldn't help but point to the posture of the two of them and said: "Then you and me now--"

"Love starts from childhood, and also from encounters. Most of them start from getting along, but not from bed. I just want to give my coming-of-age gift a good start—"

The probing hand grabbed Zheng Jianguo's hand and pressed it against her pomp, Fiona's blue eyes were fixed on his surprised cheeks and continued: "You are the best one I can touch, but you won't It's my last one—"

Zheng Jianguo's eyes flickered and the touch that fell in his hand was swept away. He couldn't believe that this girl was actually here to hook him: "Then what do you mean--"

"Oh, you wouldn't be so innocent, would you?"

Fiona looked at Zheng Jianguo's face in a daze. She was a little uncertain and said: "Could it be that you will have feelings for me just because we are happy?"

"I believe that feelings can be cultivated. Well, it means that the two people have been together for a long time, and they will be in love over time!"

Zheng Jianguo said this with a frown. Of course, he wanted to slap himself twice at the moment. He didn't even have the slightest vigilance towards the woman who brought him to the door. The other party kissed it-uh, he could just explain it casually. Has his belt been opened?

Well, this woman, to be precise, is a girl, but she is more beautiful than most girls—

"Then don't even think about it, my father will not agree with us unless you are willing to join the United States."

Fiona said that she frowned her long brows and rolled over from under Zheng Jianguo's hands and got out of the bed. She pulled up the white towel next to her and wrapped her beautiful back into the bathroom. She threw down the dumbfounded latter staring at the peach blossom on the bed. Vaguely heard: "My grandfather died in the Korean War—"

"Then, he—if your father learns about the two of us, will he come and kill me?"

Zheng Jianguo got up from the soft bed and went to the bathroom, watching Fiona's carcass see a hazy beauty in the water vapor, the latter turned around and smiled at him: "This matter is known to you. I know, actually he knows nothing, as long as he doesn't marry you, you won't propose to me, right?"

"That won't be true. If my mother knew that I was going to give up my nationality for a woman, then she would kill me—"

Joining the United States, Zheng Jianguo has never thought about it. Of course, if he can get a green card with another concept, he won’t mind. Of course, he won’t have to think too much about it now. I am afraid that now he can apply for a green card. It was obtained at a speed beyond normal people’s imagination, but there was no need for it at the moment: "We are really both mandarin ducks of the same fate—"

"Well, then talk if you have a girlfriend, and I will tell you if I have a boyfriend, and then we will be friends, how about?"

Turning around and letting the water flow on her body, Fiona said that she washed her long hair, but Zheng Jianguo frowned immediately and looked at the beautiful figure, and left the bathroom door: "Okay!"

Zheng Jianguo is still a traditional man in his bones. If it is said that Fiona had a boyfriend before, then although he will have a little bump in his heart after the exchange, but now it is clear that both of them are the first time. At the time, Fiona talked about everyone just having a friendly match before, and they can play their own in the future-he is now more upset.

When mentioning nationality earlier, Zheng Jianguo's tension in a certain root trembled. He thought that Fiona was testing in disguise whether he had the idea of ​​becoming an American citizen. Of course, he did not want to expose his mind. He didn't take up this topic because the green card was used to deal with certain talents, and he had never thought about nationality.

In his previous life and before going abroad in this life, Zheng Jianguo also thought that the green card was equal to nationality. Only after he arrived in the United States in this life did he realize that the green card is only a permanent residence permit with partial nationality rights. For example, the American green card has the right to live and reside. Possess other rights of nationality in addition to the right to vote and to be elected.

To put it bluntly, if you get a green card, you can live in the United States indefinitely, and your spouse and children can stay with you in the United States, but your nationality remains unchanged. The Republic is the Republic.

The nationality is different. Although the United States recognizes dual nationality, the Republic does not recognize it. It only caught loosely at the beginning of the reform, resulting in many people with "dual nationality"——

What will the future republic look like? At this time, only Zheng Jianguo knows better than the old people in the country. Even if he does not remember the various downturns in the domestic reform phase, the long-term benefits brought by the cold stove alone are He couldn't make the decision to renounce his nationality.

Fortunately, until Zheng Jianguo got on the plane back to Boston in heavy rain the next day, Fiona did not mention nationality with him again. It was a relief to the suspicious one. Of course, the reason for the better mood lies in The weather was good. At the end of March, Boston was not as snowy as last year. Instead, it was a splendid spring.

"This is not far from the cold spring, right?"

He drove the Plymouth car parked at the airport and returned to the dormitory. After entering the house, Zheng Jianguo first reached the telephone and pressed the answering machine, and soon a voice came out: "Hi, Zheng, are you at home? This is Celia. , I knocked on the door and nobody opened it. I have a paper I want you to read. Can you call me back?"

"Celia? She seems to be a chemistry major?"

The girl I met at MIT flashed in my mind. When Zheng Jianguo said that it was inevitable for this sister to change her research direction, he heard another voice from the answering machine: "Hi, Zheng, this is Thomas, come back. Remember to call me back, I want to talk to you—"

Quickly untied the coat and hung it on the hanger. Zheng Jianguo got to the stove to boil water, and heard the answering machine change a familiar voice: "Hi, Zheng, this is Yuna. Your firearm safety test has passed. I still need an interview. The time is set on the 9th of next month. If you pass the interview, you will be able to get the firearm safety card. Remember to call me back when you come back. I can help you with tuition."

"This news is good—"

Zheng Jianguo looked back at the answering machine, thinking that the last security class was held on February 14th, and feeling that the work of these Americans was so good, a familiar voice came from the answering machine: "Zheng, I am Levin, I have trouble you to review so many papers. Are you interested in submitting a manuscript to my "Cell"? I think you can review it--"

Zheng Jianguo stopped the action in his hand and blinked: "A review?"
