Chapter 858 - 455: The Canglan People Reach a Pivotal Historical Juncture
Faced with the ambiguous invitation from the beautiful flight attendant, the physiological instincts imprinted in DNA over billions of years urged Meng Xiaochuan to accept her invitation, thereby gaining an opportunity to spread his DNA.
But the rational side of his soul reminded him of his wife and soon-to-be-born child, as well as his status as a senior lecturer.
Especially the latter, which not only represents himself but also the national image of Great Xia.
Thus, I absolutely mustn’t act recklessly!
Meng Xiaochuan took a deep breath and shook his head, saying, "I came to Antai Kingdom this time as part of a task arranged by the Great Xia Education Bureau."
"Even if I encounter natural disasters and can’t return home, the authorities will surely have other arrangements; I’m afraid I won’t have time to travel around."
Upon hearing the words "Great Xia Education Bureau," the flight attendant’s eyes lit up brighter: "It’s okay if you can’t travel, I’m very interested in Great Xia culture. Let’s add each other on WeChat."
Meng Xiaochuan had no choice but to agree: "Okay."
Every request he received from Antai girls to add them on WeChat was based on the reason "interest in Great Xia culture."
And since he carries the task of promoting Great Xia culture, he naturally couldn’t refuse an Antai person who is "interested in Great Xia culture."
"Ding!"
He heard a digital notification sound.
His WeChat friend list added a name called "Pin Wan Na."
Pin Wan Na smiled beautifully: "Mr. Meng, let me escort you off the plane."
Meng Xiaochuan did not refuse: "Thanks for the trouble!"
Pin Wan Na pulled her luggage forward, speaking as she walked: "I really envy Great Xia peers who receive subsidies every time they encounter a natural disaster."
The "subsidy" she mentioned is actually a revision clause made by Great Xia last year to the Emergency Bill.
This clause is also known as the "Subsidy Clause," which clearly stipulates that, in the event of natural disasters faced by citizens, Great Xia is obligated to distribute subsidies to ensure citizens’ basic living needs.
Many well-treated Great Xia companies likewise distribute disaster subsidies.
For example, Celestial Star Agriculture grants employees encountering disasters a daily allowance of 300 Xia Yuan. If someone doesn’t work for a month, they directly receive 9,000 Xia Yuan.
Meng Xiaochuan asked: "Don’t you have any?"
Pin Wan Na joked: "We Antai people only have one subsidy, which is the free corpse subsidy provided by the kingdom."
Meng Xiaochuan was amused.
Of course, he knew what the "corpse subsidy" joke was about. In the Age of Calamity, there are too many bizarre things, one of which is that there’s a small chance for bodies to mutate into monsters.
Many countries didn’t deal with bodies in time, causing quite a mess, so now many countries highly prioritize this matter.
Pin Wan Na turned back and smiled: "Mr. Meng, do you have any single colleagues or friends you could introduce to me?"
Meng Xiaochuan showed an apologetic expression: "Sorry, I don’t have any single, eligible men around me."
If it had been two years ago, he could have lined up a bunch of single guys for Pin Wan Na to choose from, but now there’s not a single one.
His colleagues and friends have either married lovely foreign girls or started dating domestic ones.
Nowadays, tens of thousands of foreign women marry into Great Xia every month, and domestic girls have become less picky overall, having recognized the situation.
Pin Wan Na blinked her eyes and teasingly said half-seriously: "Unmarried ones are fine too."
Her implication was—if someone has a girlfriend, she could try to snatch him away.
Honestly, given this flight attendant’s looks and figure, her chance of successfully vying for the position shouldn’t be low; after all, there are plenty of old perverts who have a thing for "flight attendants."
Meng Xiaochuan felt quite speechless, so he could only vaguely reply: "I do know two unmarried individuals, but they have already set their wedding dates."
Pin Wan Na persistently asked: "If you meet an unmarried colleague, please do introduce him to me."
Meng Xiaochuan nodded: "No problem!"
While they spoke.
The two reached the cabin door.
Meng Xiaochuan waved goodbye to the flight attendant and walked towards the jet bridge entrance, pulling his suitcase.
Pin Wan Na stood at the cabin door, watching Meng Xiaochuan disappear around the corner of the jet bridge.
Another short-haired flight attendant standing nearby asked quietly: "Didn’t it work out?"
Pin Wan Na sighed: "Yes! Every Great Xia person I met in business class was married."
The short-haired flight attendant mischievously suggested: "Next time you meet a Great Xia person, just bring him to the restroom for a quickie."
Pin Wan Na surprisingly considered that for a moment but ultimately shook her head: "Forget it, if I’m discovered, the company will definitely fire me."
This statement showed that she didn’t mind "having a quickie," but was more concerned about the risks of doing so.
The short-haired flight attendant asked: "Why are you so determined to marry a Xia?"
Pin Wan Na didn’t answer directly, but instead asked: "A few months ago, the cabin service manager asked us to give special attention to Great Xia passengers. Why do you think that is?"
The short-haired flight attendant remained silent.
Everyone at Antai Royal Airlines knows the reason: Antai Kingdom urgently needs protection from Eastern Great Xia, so they need to please Xia people as much as possible.
Suddenly, Pin Wan Na reached out and pinched her colleague’s plump rear.
The short-haired flight attendant exclaimed: "What are you doing?"
Pin Wan Na giggled: "Once I become a Xia, then it’ll be your turn to give me special attention."
The short-haired flight attendant spat: "When you go to the bathroom, do you want me to wipe your butt?"

Elsewhere.
Meng Xiaochuan returned to the terminal and immediately heard the broadcast.
"Dear passengers, due to the kingdom’s emergency notification, all flights across the kingdom have been canceled effective immediately. All tickets will be fully refunded. We apologize for the inconvenience this may cause."
