Since he saw Shen Yiyi mingling in a group of "old" guests from afar at the ceremony of Hong Kong's return to China, Joshua has never forgotten that vivid and beautiful face in his mind. Naturally, it's one thing to be mindful, it's another thing to be able to reach it or not. With Sima Wen's influence, he may still have a certain social status before his return, but after the return, in the eyes of these relatively strong nationalist bureaucrats in Chinese mainland, even if this is a foreigner who voluntarily renounces foreign nationality and naturalizes into Chinese nationality, it is just a foreigner. It is conceivable that Sima Wen should not have such a deep friendship with these Beijing bureaucrats.

Of course, just on the plot of Hong Kong, since it is "Hong Kong people governing Hong Kong", Sima Wen, who still lives among these Hong Kong people, has daily contact with Hong Kong locals. After a hundred years of colonial rule, there is a big difference in mentality between Hong Kong and Chinese mainland. Some relatively radical mainland nationalists refer to Hong Kong people as "yellow-skinned and white-hearted", and there are naturally exaggerated and emotional parts in this, but it can be seen that the way of thinking of Hong Kong people is significantly different from that of mainlanders. At least, for Sima Wen, a "foreign devil" who obviously looks different from himself, Hong Kong people still easily accept him as "their own person". Therefore, Sima Wendu is already preparing to run for the future Legislative Council.

However, before Sima Wen can run for the legislature, he still has one obstacle to overcome, and that is that it will take time for his Chinese nationality to be officially recognized. For a period of time after Hong Kong's return to the motherland, Hong Kong people needed to choose whether they wanted to be Chinese or British overseas citizens. If you are a Chinese. Then Hong Kong people enjoy all the privileges of Chinese and are citizens of one of the world's five great powers; However, if you choose to be a British overseas citizen, then it is a nominal name. This is because this overseas citizen is not a British citizen. There is no way to enjoy the full rights of the British. It's just that because Hong Kong's political elections are not open at present anyway, Hong Kong people will not feel the difference between the two identities very directly. Moreover, due to the long-standing prejudice against the mainland, a considerable number of Hong Kong people still look down on the mainland, so they reject the identity of Chinese in their hearts. That's normal.

In this case, it's actually a little funny. Those who were born Chinese with Chinese ancestry reject their roots in their hearts; But Sima Wen, a fanzi, identifies with Chinese culture. I can't wait to join the group of this great ancient country in the East. What a contrast!

For Joshua, it was actually difficult for him to understand Sima Wen's inner world. He didn't know much about his good friend Sima Fan's heart. In fact, since the last time he glanced at Shen Yiyi in Hong Kong, he looked at Sima Fan. What I was thinking about was whether the Sima family would have a way to meet the girl who was obviously a member of the viewing group from Beijing. Take him with you, of course. It's a pity that this extravagant hope of his own is obviously beyond the reach of the Sima family. So it can only be done in vain.

This is also to blame Shen Yiyi's own lack of enthusiasm for politics. If she is a little keen on politics, she can actually give advice to her grandfather. The bureaucrats who have been in Beijing for a long time have a natural arrogance in their mentality, and they are not strange to look at this and unpleasant to look at that. Shen Yiyi habitually called this "old cadre syndrome" jokingly. The people who come out of the capital are not necessarily the officials themselves, even the common people have a little bit of this mentality. In fact, Shen Yiyi, who came from later generations, knew that such a mentality was problematic.

Don't say anything else. Just said that Sima Wen wanted to become a Chinese citizen, if Shen Yiyi could decide. That must be the welcome of the welcome. In the case of a strong enough dynasty in Chinese history, such as the Tang Dynasty, the government must have been very broad-minded. I think that the Japanese Abe Nakamaro and the Central Asian Li Bai were both senior officials in China, so in terms of openness, it is even more open than the United States today. On the contrary, it is the kind of closed and introverted dynasty that cannot jump for a few days in China's history. With Shen Yiyi's own ability to analyze and sort out, as well as the solid connections she had made in front of her grandfather and a large number of other veteran cadres, she would definitely be able to persuade government officials to adopt a more pragmatic attitude towards the new issue of Hong Kong. In this way, maybe she can have some kind of relationship with Sima Wen's family as Joshua wishes. But that's just a hypothetical.

Anyway, Shen Yiyi, who was preoccupied with her own career, had no interest in spending her time on political matters that she didn't care much about, and Joshua spent time in Hong Kong didn't be able to ask the Sima family to help her meet the girl from Beijing that she was obsessed with. On the contrary, when she was in Hong Kong, she was pestered by Sima Fan's sister. If this is someone else's girl, Joshua doesn't mind having fun and passing his time by the way. But the problem is that the other party is the sister of his good friend. In this case, Joshua has a little scruple about making a move. And the other party didn't know Joshua's embarrassment, and what he did was willful, so in the end, Joshua almost escaped and left the house of his good friend Sima Fan in Hong Kong.

Speaking of the luxury industry, it is still very popular in the circle of the rich all over the world. As a luxury businessman, Joshua naturally needs to travel among the world's major wealthy circles. In a family business like this, the children of each family have their own pressure to take over early. And Joshua came to the United States this time because he knew that there was a party in the circle of rich children, so he also rushed to join in the fun.

As for the Morgan family, the relationship with Joshua's family is also very close. It can be said that he and these people in Morgan's family also played from childhood to adulthood. So he naturally knew that the alternative son of Morgan's family, who didn't like to do business and liked to be academic, married a woman from Hong Kong a few years ago, and the other party also had a daughter with her previous husband.

So after he came this time, when he met Zhu Yiwa, he naturally knew that the other party was the famous Morgan's hijastra. Speaking of which, he is still a little curious about Zhu Yiwa, because he actually wants to know that such a position is a little embarrassing, but it seems that this girl is adapting well. In addition, the other party's background as a Hong Kong immigrant reminded him of the girl he met in Hong Kong last time who had a huge impact on his soul.

And Zhu Eva also heard from Morgan's family before that there was a rich kid from France, and this time he came to join in the fun. It just so happened that Zhu Eva's own male companion would leave her to go to Shen Yiyi to play, and she saw that this male companion was quite good-looking, so she discussed with the other party whether she could be her male companion today.

Joshua would not turn down such an invitation. It is impossible for him to say NO, either by etiquette or from the heart. Because first of all, the two families have a long-standing friendship. Don't look at Zhu Eva is not a direct child of the Morgan family, but today's event is held in the name of the Morgan family, even if it is for the purpose of training juniors, she can't let people have a reason to say that she didn't help to cause today's event to be unsuccessful. The children from these big families are not as upstart as the second generation of Chinese officials, and they are either cheating fathers or cheating masters. People know the basic trick of being a human being, that is, "more flowers, less thorns". With such a effortless effort, if Joshua didn't know that he should help, then he wouldn't be called Joshua.

The two agreed to be each other's male and female companions, so naturally they still had to rehearse and go through the motions. After all, today's protagonist is Zhu Eva for a while, and as her male companion, it is naturally necessary to understand what the basic process is. But when the two of them were cutting there, Shen Yi ran over one by one, and immediately took up Zhu Yiwa's time.

Zhu Eva and Shen Yiyi are connected, and Joshua, who is on the side, is not idle. He looked at Shen Yiyi's eyes that had caught his sight because of his soul at the return ceremony at that time, almost with surprise and joy. Those bright eyes made Joshua unable to see enough, not only could he not see enough, but he also kept making him want to step forward and get closer to see again. Joshua, who finally couldn't help it, walked over and took the initiative to talk to Shen Yiyi one by one. Originally, he wanted Zhu Eva to help introduce him, but Shen Yiyi took over the topic by himself, and instead talked to him at the first time.

Joshua's heart was overjoyed. Of course, his appearance is not likely to show it. This kind of cultivation kung fu can be said to have been practiced since childhood at their level. The little joy in my heart couldn't be seen at all in front of Shen Yiyi today. On the contrary, the happier he was, the more he showed a gentlemanly demeanor, which was really a textbook of politeness. But those who are really familiar with him will surely be able to find that his heart is as fierce as fire. It's also thanks to his luck today, whether it's Zhu Eva or Shen Yiyi, they are not familiar with him. If this is replaced by Zhu Eva's "brother" Howard, then his "abnormality" will be seen by everyone. (To be continued......)
