Chapter 703 The Princess and the Resentful Woman
The State of Boluo customized a special train for Wang Yuanchao, and with Wang Yuanchao's company, Princess Anne's railway trip and inspection was very enjoyable.

They started from Kuching (the Shinkansen high-speed railway from Beijing to Kuching is there, so there are no customized special trains), and headed east along the northern line, through towns, through rainforests, along the sea, along the foot of the mountain, through heavy rain, through the scorching sun, and visited several tourist cities carefully built by the State of Boluo. Finally, they arrived in Semporna near Tawau. If Wang Yuanchao had not stopped them for a moment, the princess would have been eager to go diving in the sea.

In Malay, Semporna means perfect, and it is a rare place that Wang Yuanchao did not change the name of.

Wang Yuanchao also likes it because of its Chinese name.

It's so beautiful here.

The sea water here is clear and transparent. The sunlight penetrates the water surface, reflecting the colorful coral reefs and tropical fish on the seabed like a dream.

A few years ago, the local government decided to develop tourism here, and each outlying island has its own characteristics.

Mabul Island has pure white sand beaches and the Bajau people who make their living from the sea. Of course, now they are all Boluo people because there is no ethnicity option on the Boluo ID cards.

From the top of Pearl Island in Tun Sakaran Marine Park, you can overlook the magnificent scenery of emerald green mountains and azure blue sea.

Gunkanjima Island and Kapalai Island attract tourists with their soft white sand and romantic water houses respectively.

As for Sipadan Island, it is one of the diving spots in Semporna. The underwater terrain is complex and diverse, with cliffs, caves, and underwater gardens. It attracts a large number of large marine creatures such as sharks, turtles, and manta rays.

Princess Anne is an athlete. She often rides horses and has even flipped over a horse many times. So when she saw such a beautiful scenery, she couldn't help but be excited.

Why did Wang Yuanchao stop it?
It’s not that the diving equipment is not ready. Semporna is positioned as a diving mecca. It has been specially built for many years for the Olympic Games and has even hosted some diving competitions. Of course, many hotels are still working overtime, but there will definitely be no problem in accommodating Wang Yuanchao, the princess and his entourage.

Even for non-professional diving tourists, there are a large number of diving instructors who can take tourists to enjoy the underwater scenery.

So the rainy season hasn't ended yet? So you think the risk is high?

The rainy season in Semporna is very short, from November to January, but now it has long passed, the sky is clear and the sea and sky are one color, it is so beautiful that it is insane.

The reason why Wang Yuanchao stopped it was very simple. All three cameras of the filming team had problems. The probability of this was almost as high as winning the lottery.

What’s even more speechless is that there is no TV station in Semporna, so there is not even a spare camera.

There are some in Tawau, but the equipment is not advanced enough. It is fine for normal shooting, but I am worried that I may not be able to do it when shooting underwater.

He must have accompanied the princess on this trip to film her actions and let her be the spokesperson for the beautiful scenery of Boro Kingdom.

Otherwise, what would he gain by spending every day with a 40-year-old middle-aged woman?
It is undeniable that Wang Yuanchao's career empire was due to his advanced cognition, but his strong waist, toned body and handsome face also made a great contribution. Otherwise, how could he have a father-in-law who is a former president of the United States and a lover who is a princess of the British Empire?
If you don't go out for a walk, you wouldn't know that even cameras can become something that hinders everyone's progress.

Fortunately, when the tour guide was introducing the princess to the beautiful scenery of Semporna, the camera from Tawau was sent over by a locomotive at lightning speed.

Have you ever seen a locomotive racing?

This old-fashioned locomotive actually reached a maximum speed of 150 kilometers per hour. The distance between Tawau and Semporna is only 70 kilometers, and the locomotive ran at high speed for more than minutes. The rest of the time was spent on the initial acceleration and subsequent braking.

When they arrived in Semporna, a car was already waiting at the station. Like a relay race, the camera was delivered to Princess Wang Yuanchao and her entourage, just in time for the hotel manager to introduce the local seafood delicacies to the princess.

The food in tourist destinations is also important promotional material.

At the same time, over the Elan Mountains, a helicopter was urgently flying towards Semporna. It was sending an underwater camera from Sabah (Kota Kinabalu, the name is too long and does not meet the development needs of Boro State. Because it was the capital of the original Sabah State, the name was directly changed to Sabah).

Princess Anne naturally knew nothing about this. She just listened to whatever Count Batam arranged.

These days, I feel really relaxed and happy. When I am in a good mood, I am naturally willing to listen to other people's opinions.

……

After diving, everyone did not take the train again, but took Wang Yuanchao's private plane and flew directly to the southwest of Boluo State, where there are beautiful natural landscapes such as freshwater swamp forests and coastal mangroves. The train flew over the swamp, and the helicopter captured the beautiful scenery of a train in the sky and a train under the water.

The helicopters for filming there were ready, so everyone flew over directly to experience it, and the investigation of Boro Kingdom was completed.

There are also requirements for the time of each trip of the princess, and she cannot stay wherever she wants. Being able to stay in Boro for a week is already the result of the princess's great efforts, plus sacrificing Malaysia, Singapore in front, and Brunei behind.

After the trip to the swamps in the southwest of Boro, the princess will continue to travel north by train, and visit Pontianak accompanied by the Count of Batam, Wang Yuanchao. Then she will return to Shangjing to stay for one night before flying directly to Brunei.

Yes, when the princess took the northern route of Boro Country and passed through Brunei, she didn’t stop at all.

The princess went back and forth so tirelessly just because she wanted to stay in Boro for one more day.

Anyway, she can take the Earl's special train and the ordinary train. What's more, she has the Earl of Batam to accompany her throughout the journey.
Brunei took so long to prepare, and the princess only showed up there, took a photo at the Brunei Royal Palace, and chatted casually. In total, it only took half a day.

As for the itinerary, the princess’ trip to Brunei will take two days!

Similarly, Singapore, the previous stop before Boro Kingdom, also takes two days, but the princess squeezed in half a day from the three days in Malaysia before that. After all, the two are close, right?
Then Singapore would take up most of the day, which was just enough to give another day to Boluo Kingdom. This was also the reason why the princess had the confidence to tell Wang Yuanchao that she would stay in the hotel for a whole day without going out after arriving in Boluo Kingdom.

This is all the free time that the princess has squeezed out herself. Isn't it up to the princess to decide how to arrange it?
Having gotten such a great advantage, what else can Wang Yuanchao do?
The Boro Kingdom still has to stay in the Commonwealth countries because of the preferential tax rates!
However, Wang Yuanchao will not be accompanying her anymore, as the princess will visit India and then return to the UK.

However, the princess knew the earl's hobbies. The crown, robes, and makeup must be dazzling and noble.

A man in his thirties is like a wolf, and a man in his forties is like a tiger, let alone a forty-year-old Bai girl who made such a big sacrifice. It shows that she has no sympathy for women at all and she is so greedy that she wants to suck their marrow out of their bones. Even the crazy Wang Yuanchao is a little scared.

Wang Ling was busy arranging people to edit a documentary about the princess's visit and news, and then contact neighboring countries to push the news. While reporting on the princess, it also promoted the tourism culture of Boluo, right?
The surrounding countries knew nothing about this. On the contrary, they were very grateful to Boro State for providing reports on the princess so thoughtfully.

How could they have imagined that Boro State used this report as soft advertising?
The Radio, Film and Television Department of Boluo even took the documentary about the princess's trip to neighboring countries to promote it. They would sell it if they were paid. If possible, they would even pay for it, but that would make others suspicious and expose Boluo's original intention of advertising.

However, the princess' visit and Wang Yuanchao's stroll revealed many problems, which are problems that no one would think of under normal circumstances. Therefore, the management of Boluo State and Shangjing will have to conduct continuous review and subsequent improvement.

Wang Yuanchao made it clear to everyone that next year, the year after, and the year after that, he would invite important distinguished guests to visit Boluo State every year. He hoped that everyone would continue to improve and allow Boluo State to appear in front of the world with a brand new look.

Shangjing, Boluo State University
When Zhou Rong arrived at the office early in the morning, she saw several letters on the desk.

The sender of the letter was Zhou Bingkun, her younger brother.

She didn't go home for the New Year again this year.

My brother Zhou Bingyi is busy as hell because the big boss is coming to inspect. Everywhere in the country is working overtime.

And yet, so many mistakes were made.

At present, reviews and improvements are being carried out everywhere, and problems in other places are being compared and learned one by one, correcting them where necessary and learning from them where necessary.

So apart from eating dumplings at home on New Year's Day, he didn't go home for the New Year's Eve dinner.

Naturally, he didn't care whether his sister Zhou Rong would come home or not.

To put it bluntly, he has fallen into Wang Yuanchao's sight and become a racehorse. His sister Zhou Rong cannot change his future fate unless she does something extremely cruel to Wang Yuanchao and implicates him.

Otherwise, the only thing that can affect his progress is his grades!

As luck would have it, Zhou Rong did not go home for the same reason as her elder brother Zhou Bingyi, which was that the school also had to make various preparations to welcome the inspection from above.

The school did make serious preparations and put out student dormitories, canteens and other facilities to receive tourists from all over the country and actively participate in this big event.

As a professor of Chinese, Zhou Rong played a very small role in the department, which did not affect her going home for the New Year at all.

Besides, how could Wang Yuanchao come to the school for inspection?

If we put every aspect of Boluo State on the counter and recommend it as commodities, then it won't be the turn of Boluo State's universities, right?
Not to mention Wang Yuanchao and Cai Peng, even the cabinet minister in charge of education did not come. Only a deputy minister came, took a quick look, and then hurried to the next stop.

Zhou Rong looked at the envelopes. The earliest one was dated January 1, the 27th day of the twelfth lunar month, the last working day before the school holidays. Then there was February 2, the sixth day of the first lunar month. The third one was dated February 11, the eighteenth day of the first lunar month, the day when the lanterns were turned off. She looked at the postmark and found that the third letter was actually sent from Shangjing!
Zhou Rong really wanted to stuff all the letters into the drawer, because she could guess what the letters contained. They were nothing more than gossip about family matters, saying that everyone in the family was healthy but missed her, and then asked her when she would come back, why she didn't come back, etc., and then mentioned her younger brother Zhou Bingkun's children and her older brother Zhou Bingyi's children.

Zhou Bingkun knew that the child was actually born to his sister outside, but he failed to force the marriage, and in the end his sister didn't want to raise the child, so she gave it to his eldest brother and sister-in-law who had no children. He mentioned his own child just to mention this child.

He didn't know that the more he mentioned the child, the more annoyed Zhou Rong became.

If she hadn’t already immigrated here and couldn’t go back to the mainland, Zhou Rong would even want to go back!
She couldn't understand why she had persisted in this relationship for so many years and given so much, but in the end, she got such a result.

However, not only was the eldest brother Zhou Bingyi busy and happy, the eldest sister-in-law also cherished the child very much, especially as Zhou Bingyi had a lot of room for advancement in his career, she paid more attention to the child. No matter what, the child and Zhou Bingyi were really related by blood, he was the child's uncle! Is there anyone closer than an uncle?
Especially since the child took her husband's surname Zhou, when Zhou Bingyi came back to rest, he liked to play with the child or take over her job of feeding the child. The joy of the family was something she and her husband had never experienced before. So the couple came here and were very happy. They were holding their breath and wanted to make a name for themselves before going back to greet Vice Governor He.

My younger brother Zhou Bingkun is a hard-working man here. The higher-ups have talked to him and he will go to another place after the new year to serve as the new leader of the reclamation group, and he will no longer be the deputy leader. Zhou Bingkun is not so cunning. He follows the rules of the higher-ups in everything and executes them in a strict manner. This is the advantage of an honest man.

What Boro State needs most at the moment are honest people with strong execution capabilities.

With his sister-in-law Qiao Chunyan being smart and his elder brother Zhou Bingyi sometimes giving him some advice, he did his job very well.

Qiao Chunyan was even more delighted. She knew her husband was not as good as her uncle Zhou Bingyi, but being the head of a small reclamation group with hundreds of people was Zhou Bingkun's blessing! She was completely satisfied.

In the mainland, Zhou Bingkun once served as a team leader, but he was quickly taken down!

Therefore, the couple are very grateful to Boluo State, and they also strongly responded to the call of the Boluo government to have more children!

Four have already been born!
As the deputy head of the reclamation team, Zhou Bingkun’s salary is more than enough to support not only four children, but also a full-time wife at home and two retired parents!

Besides, Qiao Chunyan also has a job, taking care of children in a nursery, so it is very convenient for her to take care of her own children.

Therefore, the couple was very satisfied with Boro. As for their hometown, which was freezing cold, they just let it stay in their memory. After all, there was not even a wind of more than 10 degrees here, let alone a wind below zero, which could not arouse their longing for their hometown.

Where are Zhou Rong’s parents?

As one of the first batch of construction workers in the new era in the mainland, Zhou Zhigang found an opportunity to make use of his remaining energy in Borneo and became the respected Mr. Zhou! Retire? What kind of retirement? The old man is in good health.

In the original drama, the old man died of cerebral infarction. Cerebral infarction is a thing that is more likely to occur when people are in northern towns, aged 60-70, retired, male and smoke. Therefore, it is highly likely that Zhou Zhigang suffered a stroke.

In addition, the tragic fate of the descendants of the pro-democracy movement in the film really makes me angry.

Now, in the warm equatorial zone, in addition to my daughter, my two sons' careers can be seen from their smiling faces. They are surrounded by children and grandchildren, three generations living together, and everyone respects them.

The Boluo Kingdom opened up a new settlement and paid special attention to sanitary conditions and mosquito control. In addition, with abundant energy and electricity, and a wide range of electrical appliances available, living conditions were very good.

I feel much better now.

The only one who was not doing well was Zhou Rong's mother Li Suhua.

The two sons have successful careers and happy families, but the only daughter is out there all day, having an affair with some unknown man. Even now, at her old age, she has not married and has left her child to be raised by her eldest brother and his wife.

They did not know the identity of the biological father of their grandson, actually grandson-in-law Zhou Zhou, and neither did Zhou Bingkun and his wife.

The only ones who knew about it were Zhou Bingyi and his sister Zhou Rong.

However, although Zhou Rong was alone outside, she was surrounded by her children and grandchildren at home. The old lady was not like in the TV shows, where she suffered a cerebral thrombosis due to the accident with her daughter and son-in-law.

On the contrary, as a family member of Zhou Bingyi and Zhou Bingkun, she can also receive free medical examinations. The Bao'an Hall on the Hong Kong side has helped to train many Chinese medicine practitioners here. In recent years, it is the harvest season, and new doctors come here to help with examinations and improve their ability to diagnose and save lives.

I also prescribed a lot of Chinese medicine for the old lady to recuperate early.

These are treatments not available in the mainland.

But when she saw the postmark on the third letter, she couldn't help but tear it open.

First, there is a photo. Turn it over and see: it is a group photo of five adults and five children!

Two old people, my younger brother’s family of six, my eldest sister-in-law, and Zhou Zhou.

They paid to take the photos when they were watching the lanterns at People's Square in Shangjing. But they were photos taken in broad daylight.

She had been to the Lantern Festival and knew that many tourists from other places would take photos to take back as souvenirs after visiting here.

It seems they also came to see the lantern festival.

I just couldn’t contact Zhou Rong, so I had to send a letter before going back.

Zhou Rong didn't even leave her family the address and phone number of her residence in Beijing.

Only the school's address and phone number were left.

Zhou Rong stuffed the photo into the envelope. She was no longer interested in reading the contents of the letter, but she could guess what it was.

She sat on the chair, put the three letters into the drawer, took out the materials to look at in preparation for the new semester, but she just couldn't concentrate.

Her heart was disturbed again by the photo of her brother.

She also went to see the lantern festival!
She knew that Wang Yuanchao also went to see the lantern festival!
She even knew that Wang Yuanchao was accompanying Princess Anne of the United Kingdom to watch the Lantern Festival!
——This was reported in newspapers, television, and radio stations.

But now the princess has flown away and he hasn't come to see her.

It’s fine if he doesn’t come to see me, but doesn’t he even come to see his son Zhou Zhou?

Isn't that his son?

The more Zhou Rong thought about it, the angrier she became, and her chest heaved.

"Professor Zhou, are you free? The Earl is here to inspect unexpectedly. The principal knows that you are a talent personally introduced by the Earl, so he invites you to the conference room to attend the Earl's tea party!"

Suddenly, an administrative teacher ran over and spoke to Zhou Rong breathlessly.

Zhou Rong wanted to say that she was busy and had no time, but she still opened the drawer, put several letters into her notebook, and said with a smile:

"I'll go right away!"

The administrative teacher said:
"Then please go over quickly. I will go and inform other professors."

He ran away in a hurry.

When they arrived at the conference room, a female security guard was about to check on Zhou Rong, but the security chief checked her with a glance and let her go.

Just kidding, others may not know about it, but as the person in charge of security, I must know about the Earl's relationships.

It is necessary to check her, but she is the count's woman and she has given birth to a child. It would be a bit insulting to check her like this.

So just check it visually.

The weather here is hot, and there aren't enough clothes to hide anything.

As soon as Zhou Rong entered, she was taken by the principal's men and sat in an empty seat at the front, very close to Earl Wang.

Wang Yuanchao even smiled and nodded at her.

Zhou Rong couldn't laugh, she looked at him coldly and sat down.

Wang Yuanchao felt bored and continued talking to the principal.

The topics they talked about were nothing more than Earl Wang's expectations for the school, the school's current achievements, the difficulties it faced, and the kind of help it wanted. Most of them were conventional routine.

The principal had originally wanted to use Zhou Rong to show off more, but now it seemed that this was a bit of a mistake. The principal probably guessed some of the truth, but didn't dare to get involved, so he could only continue to talk happily with Wang Bojue.

Just think of it as having an extra Chinese professor auditing the class.

Zhou Rong read the letters silently.

Wang Yuanchao would probably want to talk to her privately later. Before that, she had to look through the contents of her brother's letter to avoid appearing to be a mother who didn't care about her child.
