Chapter 274 - My Most Beloved
TV dramas’ plots were set in specific areas. Every country had its slums.
Having the slums didn’t mean that the entire country was this poor.
“En, I have to see everything for myself before making any conclusions from now on.” Yun Xiangxiang learned about this value this time.
The night breeze was gentle and calm. It was relaxing, just like a mother’s hands. Yun Xiangxiang leaned against Song Mian’s shoulder. Perhaps the light was too dazzling, or perhaps a day’s worth of fatigue was finally getting to her.
Yun Xiangxiang fell asleep unknowingly. Song Mian picked her up before putting her in the car and driving home.
When they got home, Song Mian wiped her legs and arms with a warm towel, taking care not to wake her up. When Yun Xiangxiang woke up the next day at around ten in the morning.
Today was Song Mian’s birthday.
When Yun Xiangxiang sat up from the bed and saw the time, she rubbed her head in frustration and immediately bathed before getting dressing.
“This is a wealthy land.” Yun Xiangxiang had a question. “Where are all the starving people with lifeless eyes?”
“They’re the victims of famine, but those are in West and North Africa. We’re in South Africa.” Song Mian corrected, “South Africa has never been a country that needed to be rescued.”
“I see,” Yun Xiangxiang finally got the answer. She was too influenced by TV. “Then the stories about this place being a city of crime are fake too, right?”
“Well that part is true,” Song Mian nodded after having a bite of the steak.
Anyone could buy firearms here. The crime rate was sky-high. The criminals were usually foreigners from neighboring poverty-stricken countries.
These criminals loved to target Chinese who chose not to use credit cards, and brought cash instead. Thanks to that, South Africa left a bad impression on the Chinese.
Someone could hold them at gunpoint as they leisurely strolled through the streets. If they even showed a bit of resistance, they would be shot through the chest.
That was why Song Mian would never let Yun Xiangxiang out of his sights while she was here.
