Stop Fooling the Us, China Really is Doing This!

Chapter 243 isn’t about learning; it’s about climbing the steps to higher levels!Upon hearing Su Youwan’s shout, the group’s eyes widened, filled with astonishment.

They didn’t care about anything else and hurried back into the room, their eyes glued to the TV screen, afraid of missing a single frame.

However, just then, the scene switched, and Su Chen was nowhere to be seen on the screen.

Mother Su looked at Su Youwan with some suspicion and said, ”Little Wan, did you see wrong? I don’t see anyone here.”

Su Youwan remained insistent, her little face flushed red, and she said anxiously, ”No, it really was my brother! I really saw him, just in that last scene.”

Her eyes held an unquestionable firmness, along with a lingering shock.

As soon as she finished speaking, the scene switched again.

This time, the scene changed dramatically!

It was no longer the familiar, lively, and festive Spring Festival Gala studio, but had switched to a grand outdoor setting.

Sitting below the stage was a group of people wearing crisp military uniforms. They sat tall and straight, looking majestic and extraordinary; they were clearly high-ranking officials of the Dragon Kingdom.

Looking closer, the US Secretary of State was actually among the crowd.

Old Xu’s eyes widened immediately, and he said in amazement, ”This is incredible! I’ve lived for so many years, and this is the first time I’ve seen a foreign high-ranking official attend our Spring Festival Gala!”

”This setup is really getting bigger and bigger.”

As he spoke, he kept scanning the screen, trying to find Su Chen, but after looking around, he still couldn’t see where Su Chen was.

Su Youwan, watching the adults searching anxiously, said confidently, ”Don’t worry, you’ll definitely see him!”

”And my brother doesn’t seem to be some background character; he should be a rather important person.”

Upon hearing this, Father Su’s face turned red, and he said somewhat embarrassedly, ”Your brother is just a university student. Even if he really did participate in the Spring Festival Gala, at most, he’d be a staff member!”

”How could he be an important person? You little girl, stop talking nonsense.”

In his heart, although he had always been proud of his son, he had never imagined that Su Chen could play an important role in such a major occasion!

In his perception, Su Chen was still just an inexperienced student.

However, just as he finished speaking, the screen switched again.

This time, an exquisite and solemn stage appeared, with a huge button placed on it, emitting a mysterious glow under the lights.

Immediately after, the solemn and impassioned voice of the host came from the screen: ”We invite our representative to come on stage and press this button that symbolizes the opening of a new era for the Dragon Kingdom and a new era for humanity!”

As soon as the words fell, impassioned BGM suddenly rang out...

It was the national anthem!

That familiar and heart-stirring melody instantly filled the air!

It made everyone who heard it feel their blood boil.

Although Su Chen hadn’t been seen yet, at this moment, everyone’s eyes were tightly fixed on the TV screen, as if attracted by a magnet.

The tense and expectant atmosphere made it feel as if the air in the entire room had frozen.

Old Xu, looking confused and excited, said, ”What does it mean to open a new era?”

”This is incredible!”

”According to what the host said, the person who can press this button must be our Top Leader, or at least the second-in-command!”

The others nodded in agreement!

They all sensed the great significance behind this action.

The moment the national anthem began to play, Elder Qin slowly stood up!

His steady figure and dignified face all highlighted his important status at this historic moment.

In an instant, thunderous applause erupted at the scene.

Back at the Su residence, everyone was boiling with excitement.

Because in the shot, they not only saw the respected Elder Qin but were also pleasantly surprised to discover Su Chen beside him!

”Little Su! It really is Little Su!”

Father Su’s voice trembled with excitement, and tears glistened in his eyes—the pride and joy of a father.

”My son, it really is my son!”

Mother Su also covered her mouth, her face full of disbelief. She never expected that her son would appear on such an important occasion.

Old Xu, Old Chen, and the others were also stunned, taking a long while to react.

”It really is Little Su! This kid is amazing!”

”That old man clearly isn’t simple; to be able to sit next to him, when did our Little Su get such ability?”

Old Xu said in surprise, his eyes full of admiration for Su Chen.

Su Youwan was also full of surprise. She blinked her big eyes and asked confusedly, ”Isn’t my brother just a university student?”

”What is going on here?”

”My brother went to university and ended up next to the national leadership???”

Her cute and ignorant appearance made everyone, despite their tension and excitement, chuckle.

At this moment, the camera captured the US Secretary of State on the other side.

The US Secretary of State’s expression was a bit strange; the smile that had been on his face seemed to have become somewhat stiff, and his eyes revealed a complex mix of emotions—surprise and confusion.

Su Youwan glanced at him, her little head turning, and she immediately said, ”I know, my brother must have gone to be an interpreter for our leader.”

As soon as her words came out, everyone snapped back to reality. Looking closely, Su Chen was right next to Elder Qin, and on the other side was the US Secretary of State. At first glance, this positioning really did look like that of an interpreter.

Old Xu immediately gave a thumbs up to Father Su and Mother Su, saying with admiration, ”Old Su, your son is amazing!”

”He can go and be an interpreter for our national high-ranking officials!”

”Truly amazing, truly amazing!”

”Your family has produced an incredible person!”

Father Su was smiling so wide that the corners of his mouth were almost reaching his ears. He said proudly, ”I knew it. That brat of mine has been good at foreign languages since he was little, and he always got full marks on his exams.”

Mother Su was stunned for a moment, secretly wondering in her heart, ”Didn’t my son go to the National Defense University because he failed English? If his English had been even slightly better, he could have picked Qingbei easily.”

However, she quickly comforted herself, ”It must be that the brat crammed English in university, so his English has improved. Not bad, not bad.”

However, just as this thought emerged, the scene returned to Elder Qin and Su Chen.

Everyone thought Elder Qin was going to go on stage to press the button. After all, in everyone’s view, at such an important moment, a highly respected leader like Elder Qin should be the one to complete this historic action.

But the next second, they saw a shocking scene.

They saw Elder Qin reach out, with a gentle and solemn smile, and make a gesture inviting Su Chen to go.

Su Chen nodded slightly, tightened his clothes with a serious expression, and then walked onto the stage with firm and powerful strides.

This scene left the entire audience in confusion.

Whether it was the audience at the scene or the people at the Su residence in front of the TV, they all stood there as if they had been hit by a freezing spell.

Old Xu asked with a trembling voice, ”Old Su, your Little Chen... is he really there to be an interpreter?”

”Since when does an interpreter go on stage to do that... thing!”

His words were filled with confusion and shock. This sudden turn of events completely exceeded their imagination.

Father Su and Mother Su looked at each other, their eyes also filled with confusion and helplessness.

They couldn’t understand at all how their son, who they thought was still in school, had suddenly appeared on such a major stage and was undertaking such an important role?

Father Su couldn’t help but mutter to himself, ”Didn’t that brat just go to university?”

”Why does it feel like he didn’t go to school, but rather found a stepping stone to the top?!”
