Su Heng took a sip of yogurt and nodded, saying, "The implication is that you cannot bring Miss Liuli back to the country with you."
Su Hang asked anxiously, "Why?"
Su Heng said calmly, "Miss Liuli is Japan and a member of the Yugong Family. If you want to bring her back to Japan, you must obtain the consent of the Japan government and the Yugong Family. Otherwise, it's not possible!"
Su Hang was like an ant on a hot pan, pacing anxiously in circles. " Brother Heng, as you know, the Yugong Family sacrificed Liuli to some kind of Yousu Fox God under the guise of marriage."
"That's why I made up my mind to come to Kyoto, Japan, to the Yugong Family to save Liuli. If I can't bring her back to the country, wouldn't all my efforts so far have been in vain?"
"I'm sorry," Su Heng shook his head, "Miss Liuli is Japan, not Huaxia. We Huaxia have no right to interfere."
"How so."
Su Hang's face turned pale. He had thought that by entering the Kyoto Consulate General, he could use the power of the country to bring Liuli back to Huaxia, but a question about nationality extinguished his hopes.
" Brother Heng, what if I forcefully take Liuli back to China?"
Su Heng said calmly, "I will follow the country's instructions and send someone to escort Miss Liuli back to the Yugong Family first, and then arrange for you to return to the country."
"Impossible!"
Su Hang gripped Yugong Liuli's small hand tightly, glaring at her, and said, "If Liuli can't come back to China with me, then I won't go back either."
"Being childish won't help," Su Heng said leisurely. "Currently, Huaxia's diplomatic laws and regulations only apply to the protection of Chinese citizens. Miss Liuli is Japan, so they don't apply to her."
Su Hang's face was extremely grim. "Isn't there any other way?"
Su Heng patiently explained, "Miss Liuli is Japan, not Huaxia."
"Let's go, Liuli."
Su Hang took Yugong Liuli's hand and turned back to say, " Brother Heng, thank you for coming to help me on behalf of the country, but if I can't save Liuli, I'd rather accept death with her."
"Stop right there!"
A helpless male voice rang out.
"You're clever, aren't you? You understand the principle that many hands make light work, so you used your identity as a game streamer to livestream the wedding robbery and even got the government involved to help you."
Su Heng sighed softly and said, "You're really stupid. I've hinted at it so many times, how come you still can't understand?"
Su Hang asked suspiciously, "What hint?"
Su Heng said, word by word, "Miss Liuli is Japan, not Huaxia. Our Huaxia diplomatic laws and regulations only apply to the protection of Chinese citizens."
Su Hang asked, puzzled, "And then?"
Su Heng: "..."
Su Heng's face darkened, and he rubbed his forehead, saying, "If we just get Miss Liuli to become Huaxia citizen, changing her from Japan to Huaxia, wouldn't all the problems be solved?"
"Turning Liuli into Huaxia person?"
Su Hang suddenly woke up with a start, muttering to himself, "That's right, how come I didn't think of that? Once Liuli becomes Huaxia citizen, she can return to China with me and receive Huaxia protection."
Su Heng sighed, "I finally understand."
Just when you think you've reached a dead end, a new path opens up before you. Suppressing his excitement, Su Hang turned to Liuli beside him, "Would you like to become Huaxia citizen?"
Yugong Liuli nodded her little head.
Su Hang hurriedly said, " Brother Heng, could you please help Liuli with the procedures for obtaining Huaxia citizenship?"
"It's not that simple to get Miss Liuli to become a Huaxia citizen."
Consul Feng interrupted, "First of all, Huaxia does not recognize dual citizenship. That means Miss Liuli needs to renounce her Japan citizenship in order to become Huaxia citizen."
Su Hang quickly asked, "Are you willing to give up?"
Yugong Liuli gently nodded her beautiful head.
Consul Feng continued, "Secondly, there are two application paths for foreigners to acquire Huaxia citizenship. The first is to reside in Huaxia long-term with stable employment, which in effect makes them no different from Huaxia citizens."
Su Hang's nerves tightened instantly, because Liuli hadn't settled down long-term and didn't have a stable job, so she wasn't satisfied at all. "What about the second condition?"
Consul Feng continued, "The second path is a special one. Foreigners need to make significant contributions to Huaxia and be among the world's top talents, such as scientists, writers, political scientists..."
"This Liuli isn't enough either." Su Hang's heart finally died. Putting aside the Yugong Family, Liuli, like him, was just a highly skilled King of Glory player.
They have absolutely no connection to top-tier talent.
"Comrade Su Hang, Huaxia citizenship is the most difficult to obtain in the world, bar none!" Consul Feng said, glancing at him. "In the more than seventy years since the founding of the People's Republic of Huaxia, only ten thousand foreigners have obtained Huaxia citizenship."
Su Hang's heart sank to the bottom.
Su Heng opened a carton of Ambrosial yogurt and said calmly, " Consul Feng, it seems you've overlooked an application process."
Consul Feng frowned. "Is that so, Minister Su?"
Su Heng smiled faintly, "The kinship route for Huaxia people."
"Family route?"
Consul Feng was taken aback. As long as a foreigner has relatives with Huaxia citizenship, such as a spouse, children, or parents, they can apply to become Huaxia Huaxia.
" Minister Su, Miss Liuli and Comrade Su Hang are not related. How can the kinship pathway be applied to them?"
Su Heng said meaningfully, "What if we made them relatives now?"
Consul Feng's body stiffened, his eyes widening. " Minister Su, you wouldn't be suggesting they get married, would you?"
"That's right." Su Heng nodded. "Let Miss Liuli and Su Hang register their marriage and become husband and wife."
The moment the word "marriage" was uttered...
Su Hang looked utterly astonished. "Married?"
"Marry... marry?" Yugong Liuli covered her mouth with both hands, her beautiful eyes filled with disbelief. Her cheeks flushed red at a visible speed, and her rounded shoulders trembled uncontrollably. "Marry... marry my senior?"
"Don't go too far, Minister Su."
Consul Feng looked completely bewildered. "The legal marriage age in Huaxia is 22 for men and 20 for women. They just turned 18, how can they register their marriage?"
Su Heng casually remarked, "That's indeed the law in mainland Huaxia, but in special administrative regions, like Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, men and women over the age of eighteen can register for marriage with their parents' consent."
"By circumventing mainland marriage law and utilizing Hong Kong marriage law, we'll forcibly process their marriage registrations." Consul Feng's lips twitched violently. " Minister Su, I admit your trick is brilliant."
"But have you considered that they can't register their marriage without the consent of both sets of parents or guardians?"
"Leaving aside Comrade Su Hang's parents for the moment, what about Miss Liuli's parents? Would they agree to this?"
Just then...
Huawei phone on desktop vibrates when receiving a call.
The moment Su Heng saw the caller ID, his long-dormant expression melted away, a smile appearing on his face, and a hint of affection showed in his eyes. He answered the phone, "Hmm, how did things go? Okay, I understand."
Hang up the phone.
Su Heng looked at everyone, crossed his arms, and said, "Miss Liuli's parents have agreed to Miss Liuli and Su Hang register their marriage."
What the heck?
Consul Feng's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets, and he stammered, " Minister Su... how did you manage that?"
"It wasn't my doing." Su Heng looked down at his phone's screen saver, which featured a silver-haired, red-eyed girl. "It was my wife's doing."
