Chen Zier lost his purpose in life. But he rejoiced.

Isn't this the state of life that countless people want in 20 years? No work, no mortgage, and his assets are growing every day, don't you say it's annoying?

Therefore, he should feel his life at CUHK well.

Chen Zier still has hobbies, and his hobbies are very healthy and reasonable: one is football, in order to keep the body from aging and rusting, and the other is reading, which can make the mind not stubborn and stiff.

So, he added the school's football club and often went to the library to get different but interesting opinions.

As for Cai Yifeng's dream friendship dormitory, it is now just on paper. This is just the beginning of school, and even if you want to get prey, you need to be patient.

Wait for everyone to get used to life here and let go of their guards.

In 1996, there didn't seem to be any historical events that caught Chen's attention, and everything was normal.

After a three-month vacation, Chen Zier started to attend classes again. There are not many classes, an average of two lessons a day.

He wants to go to college English, and this thing has to torture the Chinese for a long time. There is also advanced mathematics, the science subject that Chen Zier hates the most. There is also ideology, morality and cultivation, how can political classes be missing. There is also a computer base, the Internet has really become popular in the United States, and China Shipping is at the forefront of international contact, and this wave has been felt. Finally, there is his professional basic course, traffic engineering, I don't know what it is.

To sum up, it's not bad, at least half of the lessons Chen Zier can listen to.

The first two weeks of the class were very relaxed, and the teachers and students were in the stage of getting to know each other.

In a meditation class before the National Day, Chen Zier met a person, the girl who set up a tofu brain stall.

In the large lecture hall of the first teaching building, Chen Zier saw her from afar. Sitting in a seat at the back of the classroom against the wall, it was very discreet, and it seemed that it didn't want to attract anyone's attention.

Chen Zier just didn't expect that this girl would be a student here.

The meditation class is a class where the teacher and the students will not intersect, and Chen Zier certainly will not have any intersection with that girl.

Normal class, normal class. Mentally speaking, Chen Zier wanted to communicate with her, but he didn't have much chance, and he was not a young man who insisted on finding a topic just to say a few words to a girl.

So, he still lives his life.

On the first Saturday, Chen Zier and Cai Yifeng went to play a game, this kid's ball skills are very bad, he should have never played with Chen Zier before.

So he can only defend in the back, but his character is not like that, so he plays very depressed.

Chen Zier's kicking can only be said to be average, but after all, after playing for so many years, he is still relatively proficient in dribbling the ball, and he should be considered good among amateur players.

So when it was over, a young man named Xue Bohua made an appointment with Chen Zier to play football together next time.

Of course, excluding Cai Yifeng, he has to let himself run for half an hour first.

Chen Zier readily agreed.

On the weekend, Chen Zier felt that he had nothing to do, so he got up and went to the library, and went to the cafeteria alone to eat at noon.

CUHK has three canteens and a halal restaurant, and Chan loves the hot and sour shredded potatoes in the second canteen, which he has visited several times.

When it was time to eat, there was a blue-eyed foreign youth. This is the first time Chen Zier has met at CUHK.

He had a little trouble buying food, it seemed that he wanted potatoes and beef, but the master served him pork, and it was fat pork, which was difficult to swallow.

His Mandarin is a bit lame, he can only use simple words, such as 'I' and 'that', and this man himself is very anxious, and the diligent chef does not understand what he means at all.

Seeing this, Chen Zier took the initiative to ask in English, "Excuse me, is there anything that can help you?"

The young man immediately knelt down when he heard English, "Oh, my God, do you speak English?!"

Chen Zier was taken aback by his exaggerated appearance, and said with a smile: "Yes, I can." Didn't you buy the right food?"

He immediately said, "Yes, yes, yes! I think next time I should learn the names of some Chinese dishes, at least the names of pork, so that this gentleman will not put this greasy pork on my plate." I want the potato beef next to it!"

Chen Zier turned his head and said to the master: "I'm sorry, the master can change him to potatoes and beef, he doesn't seem to like pork." ”

The chef who cooked estimated that he rarely encountered this situation, and he was made to cry and laugh, but he didn't say much, just did according to Chen Zier's request.

Later, Chen Zier made shredded potatoes by himself.

The young foreign man still hadn't left, he was waiting for Chen Zier.

He said, "Thank you so much, and I was so lucky to have met someone who could speak English." My name is Robert Dyer and I'm from the United States. You don't mind if we eat together, do you?"

Chen Zier also introduced himself to him and said, "Of course not, let's find a place to sit." ”

After sitting down, Robert said, "God, you speak English so well, have you been to the United States or other countries before?"

Chen Zier shook his head, "No, I haven't even applied for a passport." ”

As he spoke, he felt a lot of eyes around him, which was a little different from the feeling of eating by himself.

In this era, white skin and blue eyes are very rare in China, and the classmates around them all look at the two of them with strange eyes.

I was so close that I heard that Chen Zier could communicate with this foreigner without barriers, and I also felt that there was an indescribable bull fork.

Robert seems to have gotten used to it or he doesn't care, in short, his words are smooth.

You know, I've been trying to learn Chinese lately, but it's really hard to learn a foreign language. ”

"I watch some American movies, you know: 'Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what's going to happen next,'" Chan said. ”

Robert laughed, "You also watched Forrest Gump?!That's my favorite movie." ”

Chen Zier said: "Yes, I am very impressed by this line. ”

Robert said, "And that sentence: What kind of person do you want to be in the future?"

"What do you mean, can't I be myself anymore?"

"It's so cool! Don't you think? And that's what I wanted, so I came to Huaxia. ”

Chen Zier was curious: "Are you studying at CUHK?"

Robert shook his head, "Hmm... Actually, I'm an exchange student, and I'm studying here for a year starting this semester. ”

"Learn what?"

"International relations! I'm interested in studying China - ancient and mysterious, you were born in a magical country!"

Chen Zier joked: "know-your-enemy, know-yourself? Uh？”

Robert has the characteristics of an American who is 'unreliable anywhere', and he doesn't mind the 'enemy' that Chen Zier said, but instead says: "Haha! You are very humorous, I like you!"

Chen Zier said, "Thank you!" and then emphasized: "However, I like women." ”

Robert still laughed.

Chen Zier asked, "So, which university did you exchange from?"

Robert said: "Stanford University. Do you know her?"

Chen Zier was a little strange, he had the impression that Stanford should be a science student tinkering with computer programs all day long, and how could there be a major in international relations?

Chen Zier said: "If you are talking about the Stanford in Silicon Valley, of course I know. ”

Robert was a little helpless, "Stanford's fame has been robbed by those nerds who type on the keyboard." ”

Chen Zier cannot deny that now the Internet creates wealth, and there are entrepreneurial heroes that people are chasing. Professors of international relations are not as popular as these people.

After the meal was finished, Robert did not let Chen Ziyu go, according to his words: You will be my Chinese teacher in the future. Chen Zier also wants to make such a friend, and it is good to exercise and speak at ordinary times.

Robert introduced Chen Zier to his companion, who was also from the United States, but was a woman.

Robert said: "Karen speaks a little better Chinese than I do, but she has a little trouble. ”

"So, I think you'll jump for joy when she sees her, you don't know how badly she was tormented by her own report. ”

The Karen that Robert said was a tall woman with long blond hair, and when she walked out of the international student apartment, her height gave people the feeling that Chen Zier was a little stressed.

He secretly estimated in his heart that this woman must be about one meter seven or eight, but she is actually not shorter than him.

The long legs wrapped in skinny jeans are eye-catching.

Robert introduced the two, and sure enough, as he said, Karen was excited.

Chen Zier looked at her carefully at this interval, this Karen is not only slender, but also has delicate facial features, and her light blue eyes reflect the white skin, which should give a man a strong sense of impact.

The three of them found a bench in the garden and sat down. Chen Zier knew that she was a history student, already a master's degree, and came to China because she was very interested in the history of ancient China. Normally, there is no homework at the beginning of the school year, but she encountered a special case.

Karen said in Mandarin: "My mentor needs me to make a report on the political characteristics of the Song Dynasty, but ...... I'm going crazy with a whole bunch of official names. ”

Chen Zier couldn't help but secretly want to laugh, the system of the Song Dynasty was indeed a little special, and there were many people who couldn't understand the official names of those who were awkward, not to mention foreigners.

The key is that the official title of the Song Dynasty was separated from the actual position, and you were given this official, but you were asked to do other things, and if you didn't take care of it carefully, it would be easy to turn into a mess.

Karen spoke Mandarin decently, but strange names like 'Left Servant Shot, Right Servant Shot, Qing and Shaoqing' stumped her.

Chen Zier didn't know what he did very well, but he didn't refuse, he didn't have anything to do himself, and it was not bad to learn about the Song Dynasty.

His nod made Karen excited.
