Bearing heavy burdens

As Liangli spoke, she placed the plate in front of Hans and said, "Time was a bit tight, and the ingredients were limited. Please make do with this; there's really nothing else."

Hearing Liangli's words, Hans replied, "Okay, I'm not someone who makes things difficult. I'm very satisfied with a Dragon-style breakfast."

Upon hearing this, everyone in the restaurant rolled their eyes in unison.

Of course, Hans, with his knife and fork poised over the plate before him, did not see the eye-rolls directed at him.

Hans was quite large, the kind of person who clearly exercised regularly.

People who exercise regularly generally have a good appetite.

Hans had already finished his American-style breakfast and was now eating the Dragon-style breakfast.

Earlier, noticing Hans's build, the maid had prepared a larger breakfast for him than for Su Yang and the others. After finishing that, Hans still felt hungry looking at the plate before him.

Su Yang propped his face up, looking coldly at Hans, already contemplating how to deal with him after the recording of the program concluded.

Liangli and the two assistants from the Culture Bureau sat opposite Hans, waiting for him to finish breakfast before discussing program matters.

"Wow, this looks really good," Hans said, using his knife and fork to cut a piece of the pancake and looking at Liangli.

Liangli gave him a professional fake smile and said, "Please, try it."

He put the pancake into his mouth, chewed, and his eyes lit up.

"Oh, my!"

However, Hans mocking the Dragon country was a different matter.

Su Yang could overlook personal slights, but he could not tolerate his country being looked down upon.

But because the Dragon country had sent Su Yang to this program with great importance, Su Yang had no choice.

Furthermore, Su Yang had a system that required him to participate in this program, making it impossible for him to refuse.

"I can feel that you've truly been holding back these past two days, but I don't think we should continue to do so."

Hearing Liangli's words, Su Yang was utterly confused and asked, looking at her, "What do you mean?"

"I think it's really not worth it for us to endure humiliation and participate in such a program. For them to keep mocking us, mocking you, it's just..."

"Teacher Liangli, their mocking us stems from a lack of understanding and a misconception of us. Our purpose here is precisely to change the international perception of our Dragon country. If we leave now, our original intention will be lost, and the mockery we've endured these past two days will have been for nothing."

Looking at Liangli, Su Yang had always thought she had good resilience. He was surprised she couldn't handle a little mockery.

"Teacher Liangli, don't worry, I can handle this situation."

Liangli pursed her lips at Su Yang's words and said, "That's not what I'm worried about."

"Then what are you worried about?" Su Yang was genuinely perplexed. If it wasn't that, what else could there be to worry about?

"I..." Liangli hesitated, unable to speak.

Su Yang frowned, looking at her. "Are you worried I'll lose my temper on the show? Don't worry, I have a strong tolerance and won't explode on camera. Besides, I don't think they'd dare to mock so openly on the show, would they?"

Liangli still shook her head. "It's not about that."

"Huh?" Su Yang was extremely confused. Looking at Liangli, he asked, "Then what are you worried about? You need to tell me so we can solve the problem. If we give up now, will that be acceptable? Can you report back?" Su Yang asked Liangli.

Liangli looked at Su Yang. "Hans is already treating you like this here. In the program, there will be many foreigners. They will definitely target you. Not only with words, but what if they behave maliciously towards you?"

Su Yang was taken aback. Was Liangli worried about him being targeted? Is that all?
