Chapter 6: Meeting Compatriots in a Foreign Land (Part 2)
Guo Cainiqi said: "Why do you know each other?"
"I have met before." Zhou Xianya said, "He is an international student in the school's basketball team."
Cheng Haonan said in surprise: "International student in the basketball team? Are you a player in the first team? Where are you playing?"
Chen Junhao nodded and said, "I play the point guard."
Cheng Haonan exclaimed: "So you are Chinese Chen? I heard that the basketball team has a top-notch Chinese point guard, and they may win the championship this year."
"Chinatown?" Zhou Xianya and Guo Caini said in surprise, "How could there be such a strange name."
"It's Chen Junhao's Chen." Cheng Haonandao, "You are the first among us Chinese to be able to occupy the absolute main position in the American college basketball team."
Chen Junhao smiled and said, "Maybe, but there is nothing special about this, right? There are many people with my strength in China, but no one comes to study in the United States."
Zhou Xianya said: "How can there be many people in Asia's No. 1 basketball genius? The one who can lead the team to win the second place in the U21 World Youth Championship at the age of 16 can still find the second one in the world?"
Cheng Haonan and Guo Caini looked at Chen Junhao in surprise.
Chen Junhao touched his nose and looked embarrassed, and laughed dryly for a while and said speechless.
Cheng Haonan hugged Chen Junhao's shoulder and praised: "I only know that you are a nerd who goes to the library every day, but I never thought that you were an athlete. Good boy, you really give us Chinese people a face. I will definitely cheer you up when you compete."
Chen Junhao smiled and said, "Then I'll thank you first."
Guo Caini said: "A group of people can't block the door and talk, just go in quickly. Haonan, please sit with Chen Junhao, I, He Xianya, have to greet you here."
Cheng Haonan nodded and took Chen Junhao into the first step. Guo Caini patted Zhou Xianya's shoulders who were watching the two of them and said, smiling: "Don't underestimate them, be careful of the nails in your eyes." Although Zhou Xianya acted calmly and responded very appropriately, as a friend who grew up with her, Guo Caini still saw her calm panic and joy.
Zhou Xianya spat lowly and turned around quickly, but couldn't help but feel a bubble of joy in her heart.
Guo Caini whispered: "To be honest, have you fallen in love with this Chen Junhao?"
Zhou Xianya was startled, and her face suddenly turned red and she said shyly: "What are you talking nonsense? Today is just the second time he met with me."
Guo Caini smiled and touched Zhou Xianya's face, saying, "Your face turned red!"
"Nonsense, the air conditioner temperature here is a little higher. Isn't your face very hot too?" Zhou Xianya said, making pliers with her right thumb and index finger, and reached towards Guo Caini's face. Guo Caini hurriedly dodged and smiled, "That little brother Chen is really handsome, it's not surprising that you fall in love with him. But he is probably much smaller than you. Although he is quite tall, his face is still pure. I think he is only seventeen years old at most."
Zhou Xianya blurted out and said, "No, he is almost nineteen years old." Seeing Guo Caini's smiley expression, her face heated up and quickly explained, "These are all things I see from the Internet."
Guo Caini smiled and said, "Well, so that's the case? But how could you think of checking his information online?" Zhou Xianya's face was flushed and speechless. She whimpered and turned around to avoid Guo Caini's burning gaze.
Guo Caini said honestly: "You have been in the United States for several years, and you should be somewhat influenced by American culture. Identity is not a problem, age is not a gap, and you are only three years older than him. You just like to chase after him, and it is no longer appropriate to 'reduce'."
Zhou Caini shook her head and said, "How could you say so exaggeratedly? I have only met him twice. I really like him. I can't even talk about having a good impression."
"Isn't it okay to have a good impression?" Guo Caini shouted, "Are you going to let the little boy speak up on his own? I think it's hard. Chen Junhao knew at a glance that he was a little bitchy. You are already at the level of a big sister in your heart. If you don't break this layer of window paper, you will always be Sister Zhou."
Zhou Caini said angrily: "Don't catch the wind and shadows, you can also say something that has no shadows at all, it seems to be true. I really convinced you." Guo Caini was still waiting to speak and pretended to be angry and blocked her.
Let’s talk about Chen Junhao following Cheng Haonan’s entry, many people had already come inside. Many men and women hugged each other, whispered or flirted with each other. These young people who have been in the United States for many years were deeply influenced by American culture, and such shocking behaviors in China are accustomed to them. Cheng Haonan obviously has a high status in the circle and many people have taken the initiative to greet him.
Cheng Haonan led Chen Junhao all the way, passed through the hall and finally sat down at the table by the swimming pool, and immediately a waiter delivered drinks. The party was at the villa of a member's home in the outskirts of Columbia.
Chen Junhao picked up the juice and took a sip. He looked at it. The soft lights, beautiful music, and the waiter in white walked through the crowd with a tray. The specifications of the party were quite good. Before he came, he never expected that the party at the class reunion would seem to be an open-air cocktail party. It seemed that the members who would lend this villa were not rich men or children of aristocratic families. Such a gathering was a huge difference from the hard life of Chinese students studying abroad that Chen Junhao imagined.
Cheng Haonan saw Chen Junhao's thoughts and smiled and said, "Our class reunion cannot afford such a gathering. Although Taiwanese students have a lot more abundant life than mainland students, they do not have the ability to hold such a gathering casually. This year, a noble man came to our class reunion this year, and this time it really gave him his blessing. Well, he is here."
Chen Junhao turned around and followed Cheng Haonan's gaze. A young man in white was walking over. He was in his early twenties and had a typical noble temperament. He was wearing a white shirt and black trousers, but it was very decent when worn by the visitor. "Brother Haonan!" The visitor held the wine glass and greeted with a smile. This smile immediately made Chen Junhao's favor for him rise a lot. The smile of the young man in white was very gentle, giving people a very sincere taste.
Cheng Haonan and Baiyiqing Young touched the glass and gave Chen Junhao to the front, saying, "I'll get to know, this is my junior, Chen Junhao." He said to Chen Junhao, "This is Chen Yinhao, the host of today's party." The two of them handed the glasses in their left hand and shook hands to say hello to each other.
Cheng Haonan smiled and said, "If you just look at the name, you look like two brothers."
Chen Yinhao said: "As soon as I saw Brother Junhao, I felt very close. It would be nice to have such a brother."
Chen Junhao laughed and said, "It's a good thing that my parents are not here, otherwise Brother Haonan's words would have caused my father a big trouble." Cheng Haonan, Chen Yinhao was shocked and then burst into laughter.
After laughing, Chen Yinhao said, "When my father named me, he came from the family tree completely. The same is true for Brother Ruo Junhao's family. Perhaps our two families have some connections."
Chen Junhao mocked, "My name was thought out when my father slapped his thigh when he was having dinner. He still often tells me about the situation when he choked on a fishbone." Everyone burst into laughter.
Cheng Haonan gasped and said, "I never knew that you, a dull nerd, would be so funny. You shouldn't be so arrogant. Today I really know your true face." He turned to Chen Yinhao and said, "Don't look at Junhao's elegant and elegant appearance, he is the main point guard of our basketball team. I just knew it just now."
Chen Yinhao was moved and said, "Well! Is it true? It's amazing to have a firm position in the American college basketball team! The University of Missouri is a strong team that can enter the quarterfinals."
Chen Junhao smiled and said, "I only have this specialty!"
Chen Yinhao said: "It's not as simple as playing basketball at your level, but it's as simple as a specialty. I'll give you a cup first, and I will definitely come over to cheer you up when you have a game in the future."
"Then thank you first." Chen Junhao raised his glass.
Cheng Haonan said: "In fact, Yinhao's basketball is also very good. Don't look at his current temperament as a gentle young man, he was a desperate Saburo of the basketball team when he was in junior high school. At that time, I was the captain of the team. He dared to challenge me as a freshman."
"What's the result?" Chen Junhao said curiously.
"Of course I'll beat you up and down." Cheng Haonan hugged Chen Yinhao beside him and laughed.
