Rebirth in 1985

Chapter 115: Being a Guest

Lu Shaohua was about to walk towards the villa when he suddenly heard someone calling his name from behind. He had no choice but to stop and turn around. "Anten Chiyo?"

The person who called him was none other than An Teng Chiyo. It couldn't be anyone else. After all, in the entire villa area, apart from Liu Mingzhang and the others, only An Teng Chiyo knew him. "Hehe! Hello!"

"Hello! What can I do for you?" Lu Shaohua's face was full of doubts. Although he knew her, he was just an acquaintance and was not very familiar with her.

"Haha! I'm here to apologize for what happened that day, and also..." Chiyoko Ando looked embarrassed, not knowing how to start next.

"Haha! You already apologized that day, so there's no need to apologize again." Lu Shaohua glanced at her, a little confused. "Just tell me what you want to say!"

"Well! It's like this, I told my grandfather about what happened to you, and my grandfather wants to invite you to my house." Chiyoko Anten was no longer embarrassed and said it directly, but she seemed to feel a little awkward, so she explained immediately. "Oh! My grandfather is Chinese, and when he heard that you are also Chinese, he wanted to meet you."

At this time, Lu Shaohua remembered that Chiyo Anten said that day that she was one-quarter Chinese, so her grandfather was Chinese, which just made sense. When you meet people from your hometown in a foreign country, you should get closer to them. Lu Shaohua can still understand. "Okay! You lead the way."

……

Chiyoko Ando led the way, and Lu Shaohua followed closely behind. Soon they walked into the villa. The layout inside the villa was basically the same as the one where Lu Shaohua lived, except for some differences in furniture.

As soon as he walked into the door, Chiyo Ando opened his throat and shouted loudly, "Grandpa! Grandpa! I have invited the guests you asked me to invite."

With this shout, several people sitting in the hall watching TV could not help but look towards the door. A pale-haired man stood up from his chair, smiling, and said in Chinese, "Welcome."

As soon as he stood up, Lu Shaohua noticed him. He had a square face with severely wrinkled skin. Coupled with his pale hair, he must be over 60 years old.

"Haha! Hello!" Lu Shaohua didn't know how to start, so he just greeted him simply.

"Please sit down!" The man in his sixties did not treat Lu Shaohua with any disrespect because he was a child. He made a warm gesture of invitation and even muttered something in Japanese to a woman who looked to be in her thirties next to him.

Although Lu Shaohua didn't understand Japanese, he could still guess that it was probably to ask a woman to pour tea. Lu Shaohua didn't care about these, he sat down on the sofa generously and waited for the next words.

When a guest arrives, as the host, he must of course find a topic to talk about first. "Haha! My name is Fu Zhentai, and I'm from Guangdong Province. I guess you know Guangdong Province, right?"

Lu Shaohua smiled slightly and thought to himself, "What a coincidence! I can meet someone from Guangdong Province in Tokyo."

Although he met a fellow villager from the same province, Lu Shaohua was not very surprised. "Haha! I'm also from Guangdong Province, my hometown is in Chaoshan area, where is your hometown?"

"Haha! I didn't expect that we are from the same province! What a fate." Fu Zhentai laughed heartily. Perhaps because he hadn't seen his fellow countrymen for many years, he used laughter to express his joy. After a long time, he spoke again. "My hometown is in Shenzhen. Oh! I don't know what it has become now. I haven't been back for a long time."

When it comes to the last sentence, Fu Zhentai feels a little emotional, and a few tears can be clearly seen in the corners of his eyes. It seems that he misses his hometown very much and is expressing his feelings!

Lu Shaohua could fully understand Fu Zhentai's feelings. After all, homesickness is inevitable when you are away from home. "Haha! Grandpa, Shenzhen is different now. It is one of the five major special economic zones in the country. It is no longer the small fishing village of the past."

Lu Shaohua's words were still very effective. He pulled Fu Zhentai back and said with some excitement: "Yes! It is no longer the small fishing village of the past. Oh! Do you know Shenzhen?"

"Haha! My family opened several stores in Shenzhen, and I lived in Shenzhen for a long time." Lu Shaohua smiled and added in his heart, "It's more than just a period of time! It's more than ten years."

Indeed, Lu Shaohua did live in Shenzhen for more than ten years, it was just in his previous life.

"Oh! I see." Fu Zhentai nodded and changed the subject. "Can you tell me what Shenzhen is like now?"

"Sure, it's just a small matter." Lu Shaohua would not refuse an old man in his sixties, nor would he refuse someone who missed his hometown every moment. "Shenzhen can now be regarded as a window to Asia, and its economy ranks first in the country..."

After talking about the economy, Lu Shaohua started to introduce the environment of Shenzhen, such as the avenues and the tall buildings...

Lu Shaohua introduced all the best sides of Shenzhen to Fu Zhentai, but when Fu Zhentai heard one part, his eyes became empty, as if he was searching his memory to compare it with what Lu Shaohua said now. Obviously, he was disappointed, because in comparison, there was no similarity between Shenzhen and his memory, which only showed that Shenzhen was developing very rapidly.

The introduction lasted nearly an hour, and during this time, he had already drunk three cups of water without realizing it, and his mouth was dry. When Lu Shaohua finished introducing some things worth introducing, Fu Zhentai didn't seem to wake up from his memory...

After a long while, Fu Zhentai's expression gradually calmed down, and he sighed, as if talking to himself. "It seems that I have to return to my country before I die."

Being able to say this proves that Fu Zhentai is completely awake. After waking up, Fu Zhentai couldn't help but look at Lu Shaohua seriously, and was a little shocked. He noticed that Lu Shaohua's expression had not changed at all since he entered the room. He was still so calm and composed. Suddenly, four words appeared in his mind. "This boy is extraordinary."

Facing an old man who was older than him, although he could be considered a fellow villager, he was in someone else's home after all, and his conversation was so calm and his movements were so elegant. Whether it was his speech, expression, or movements, it all proved that Lu Shaohua was extraordinary. "Excuse me, are you living with your relatives now?"

Fu Zhentai asked this question after careful consideration. From what Chiyoko Andeng said, he knew that Lu Shaohua lived in this villa area, and the villas in this villa area were not affordable for ordinary families. As for renting, that was simply impossible. In addition, according to what Lu Shaohua said, his family opened a store in Shenzhen, and there was no such thing as doing business in Japan.

"Haha! I'm here in Japan for fun and won't be back until next year." Lu Shaohua was so smart that he didn't understand what Fu Zhentai meant. However, he didn't answer Fu Zhentai's question directly.

"Come here to play?" Fu Zhentai was a little confused. "How old are you this year?"

"About 11 years old."

Fu Zhentai didn't say anything, but just nodded, thinking about what kind of person Lu Shaohua was...

Fu Zhentai didn't say anything, but...
