Chapter 19: The Townsfolk See the Townsfolk (Part II)
Jia Xiaoxian's curiosity soon had an answer, and after the game, Lisa waved excitedly at Isere, and she shouted, "Hey, here! ā
When Isel saw Lisa, she immediately rushed over, gave Lisa a bear hug, and rubbed Lisa's freshly permed hair, "I knew you were coming, how about it, it went well all the way, right?" ā
"Don't mess with my hair!" Lisa screamed and pushed Iseel away and straightened her hair, knowing that Iseel did it on purpose. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"Who is she?" Iser noticed Jia Xiaoxian.
"Oh, I forgot to introduce," Lisa grinned and pulled Jia Xiaoxian's arm, "My roommate is also a college classmate, Jia Xiaoxian." ā
Jia Xiaoxian greeted Isel with a smile on his face, but his eyes looked behind Isel.
Wang Nuo stood behind Isel, he also noticed the girl in front of him, her eyebrows were delicate, but she did not apply fat powder, wheat-colored skin, slender figure, wearing a low-key loose long skirt and flat leather shoes, Lisa's pronunciation was very non-standard, but Wang Nuo still vaguely heard that this girl should also be Chinese.
"Are you Chinese?" Wang Nuo asked in Chinese.
Jia Xiaoxian couldn't believe her ears, hearing her mother tongue in a foreign country, she felt very cordial, but it seemed a little illusory, her eyes widened, and she asked rhetorically with Chinese, "Are you also Chinese?" ā
The two looked at each other, and as time passed, each other's eyes gradually recovered from surprise, becoming warm and soft, Wang Nuo took the lead in reaching out his hand, and Jia Xiaoxian was stunned for a moment and shook it politely.
"Wang Nuo, my hometown is in Chengdu."
"Ahh
Wang Nuo felt Jia Xiaoxian's whole body tremble, first snorted softly, and then heard her say an authentic Sichuan dialect, "The nest is also like Chengdu drop!" ā
"What a coincidence!"
"We should buy 'EuroMillions', and I think the probability of winning the lottery is a little higher than meeting Chengdu villagers in Liege, Belgium, a small city of 200,000 people." Wang Nuo made a joke and added, "And it's a beautiful fellow countryman." ā
Jia Xiaoxian couldn't help laughing, two shallow dimples looming on his cheeks, looking playful and cute.
"Look what I found!"
Iseel jumped in front of the two of them in a startled, he first pointed at Wang Nuo, then looked at Jia Xiaoxian incredulously, and finally stared at the hands that the two had been holding, and shouted at Lisa next to him in a loud voice, "There is something wrong with them!" Definitely there is a problem! ā
Lisa smiled wryly and pulled Isel aside, pulling her unsightly cousin aside.
"What are you doing!" Isel exclaimed exaggeratedly, "They are talking in some mysterious oriental language, there must be some conspiracy!" ā
"That's none of your business, Mr. Light Bulb!" Lisa replied angrily, "If you guessed correctly, both of them are Chinese, do Chinese want to chat in French?" ā
Wang Nuo and Jia Xiaoxian laughed at the same time, and let go of their hands, but their eyes still stayed on each other.
"Hey, I'm not a light bulb, I'm just curious what they said." Isel looked innocent, "It seems that mastering a foreign language is really useful, if only I knew Chinese." ā
"You also want to learn Chinese," Lisa looked at Isel with disdain, "Chinese is one of the hardest languages in the world to learn!" ā
"Oh, you underestimate me too much, but I learned a few words from Wang Nuo." Isai said unconvinced.
"Tell me about it." Lisa looked incredulous.
"Nihenshuai, this is the meaning of hello, nishidashuaige, this is the meaning of good morning, and there are higher-end ones," Isel glanced at Lisa with his toes, not noticing Jia Xiaoxian's strange expression next to him, "Niyuelaiyueshuaile, this sentence means that the weather is good today, these sentences are the most authentic Chinese slang, I use them every day to greet Wang Nuo, very proficient!" ā
Isel triumphantly showed off his language talent, and looked at Wang Nuo, as if he wanted to get Wang Nuo's comment.
"Well, that's a good point, the pronunciation is very standard."
Seeing Wang Nuo nodding his head with a teachable expression, Jia Xiaoxian finally couldn't hold it back, snorted, and his face bloomed.
Wang Nuo saw that he was about to reveal his stuffing, and hurriedly said to Isel with a straight face, "I taught you the dialect of Sichuan, China, which is equivalent to the native dialect of the Brittany Peninsula in France. ā
"Oh!" Isel and Lisa had expressions of abrupt realization.
"How's it going, convinced?" Isere asked Lisa.
"You will only say three sentences, what is there to show off."
"But you won't say a word."
"I speak the Corsican dialect, do you?"
"The kind of Corsican where birds don't, only the horrors and prisoners are interested in learning their dialect!"
The brother and sister began to quarrel, from the Corsican dialect to the National/Ethnic Liberation Front/Liberation Line, and from the National/Ethnic Liberation Front/Liberation Front/Line to the Women's/Rights/Movement, and then they had an argument about the character of President Sa Kochi, chattering endlessly.
Wang Nuo found that Lisa and Isel were cousins, both of them were chattering, once they opened the chatterbox, they basically couldn't stop, and after a while, the people around them were scattered, and they were still fighting each other.
It wasn't until Zoe, who had just sent off a few good friends, came over that the Isel siblings diverted their attention.
After some introduction, Zoe met Lisa and Jia Xiaoxian.
"It's rare for so many people to meet together, let's go to my restaurant for dinner tonight." Zoe sent out an invitation.
In the past month, Wang Nuo and Zoe have basically completed the tasks assigned by Del Leo, and now they only need to work for one morning every day, and the rest of the time is freely arranged by them.
Iser immediately agreed, and called home to tell her parents that Lisa, her classmates, and herself would be eating out and going back later.
He loves the milk sausages that Zoe makes.
So, a group of five people came to the laMaisonBatta restaurant on the bank of the Maas River, Zoe's father warmly entertained his son's friends, milk sausages, spicy pork chops, foie gras, salad, and Iseer's favorite French onion soup, the only fly in the ointment is that the three boys can't drink spirits, Wang Nuo and Iseel have always been eating habits, and Zoe should avoid smoking and alcohol after heart surgery, so everyone chose to drink juice.
"Cheers!"
Five glasses full of juice clashed together.
are eighteen or nineteen years old, naturally there are endless topics, especially Wang Nuo and Jia Xiaoxian, a pair of Chengdu fellows, Wang Nuo since the fourth grade of primary school abroad, eight years, never went back, he and Jia Xiaoxian sat next to each other, asked a lot of domestic things, and then the topic extended, chatting about each other's lives, Jia Xiaoxian told Wang Nuo interesting things in school, Wang Nuo told Jia Xiaoxian about the experience of playing football, the two of them are like old friends who have not seen each other for many years, and there is no trace of life between each other.
Wang Nuo enjoyed this state very much, after his father returned to China, he only made a phone call in ten days and half a month, he was the only one left in the family, and he could only chat with Iser Zoe every day, and in the offseason, he was busy with part-time and amateur competitions, he had not talked happily for a long time, he looked at Jia Xiaoxian, this girl gave him a special feeling, she spoke softly, more like a girl from Jiangsu and Zhejiang, with a faint smile between her delicate eyebrows and eyes, which made people feel warm and peaceful.
Jia Xiaoxian is also the first time to meet a boy like Wang Nuo, compared to Wang Nuo, her life before coming to France was boring to lackluster, every day is to deal with exercises, the social circle is limited to a few good friends in school, especially in the third year of high school is to live an ascetic-like life, after coming to France, she has seen a completely different world, people's strange interests and hobbies, all kinds of religious festivals, completely different social systems, everything opened her eyes.
And the boy in front of him gave up the opportunity to go to a prestigious school, desperately left no way back, and regarded football as his life's work, which is difficult for many people to understand in China.
She likes to chat with Wang Nuo, this boy is three months younger than herself, but she can't see the frivolity and naivety of the young man between the words, he is very humorous, the embarrassing things in life are said by his mouth, he can always make himself laugh, he is very sincere, and he does not shy away from talking about the divorce of his parents and the negative emotions in his heart, when he said that on the day his mother left, he waited at the station for two hours but did not get a hug or even waved goodbye, the deep regret on his face made Jia Xiaoxian can't help but want to hug him and comfort him softly.
From the beginning of dinner to the end of the meal, Wang Nuo and Jia Xiaoxian chatted for a long, long time, and they both realized that it was not early, but neither of them wanted to stop.
The Issel siblings and Zoe had long discovered the wonderful state between the two, they didn't seem to have known each other for a few hours at all, looking at the posture of the long talk, it was clear that a couple was pouring out their hearts, and no one could understand what the two were saying, but it didn't prevent them from coaxing on the side, especially Isel's loud voice.
Wang Nuo is thick-skinned, An Zhiruo doesn't care, but Jia Xiaoxian is ashamed and doesn't know where to put his eyes, his heart is beating suddenly, and he is in a panic, at this time, she suddenly felt a pair of big hands grabbing her arm, and when she looked up, Wang Nuo was staring at herself, so she hurriedly turned her head away, Wang Nuo didn't care so much, and pulled Jia Xiaoxian out of the restaurant in a coax.
The night was already thick, Wang Nuo and Jia Xiaoxian were strolling on the bank of the river, blowing differently, the sparkling river reflected the bright light of the street lamp, like a layer of dazzling diamonds, Jia Xiaoxian had no intention of enjoying the beautiful scenery, and looked straight ahead a little nervously, speechless.
"For a while, I ran along the opposite bank every night, and when I ran, my mind was full of thoughts." Wang Nuo seemed to fall into a memory, "The whole body is sweating, and the clothes don't need to be twisted and dripping water, but at that time, the mind was exceptionally empty." ā
Jia Xiaoxian cautiously glanced at Wang Nuo's side face, his facial features were as angular as those of a European, and under the light, it looked like a handsome sculpture, and she couldn't help but be a little distracted.
Wang Nuo didn't notice that Jia Xiaoxian was peeking at him, and still said to himself, "It was spring at that time, and it wasn't long before I came to Liege, I had just participated in the trial, and I hadn't been selected by Standard Liege, my mother moved to Ghent, my father was depressed all day, everything was bad, I didn't want to stay at home, so I went out for a run every night, starting from my house, running east along the Maas River, pinching the distance, fourteen kilometers, exactly an hour." ā
"This hour is the most relaxing time for me, my brain is completely free, and all kinds of ideas will pop up at any time."
"Sometimes I'm angry, I don't like anything, I hate wars thousands of miles away, in order to compete for interests, innocent people lose their lives, but they don't care, I hate the hypocritical media, I want to control people's minds, play people like puppets, I hate pretentious music, they don't know how to live, but they exaggerate their youth into ghosts that should be wantonly indulged."
"Sometimes, I think about my parents' marriage, my father has always wanted to live a simple life, dissolve love in family affection, and my mother is the opposite, she longs for romance all the time, she regards drama as life, and my father's concept is completely different, they were the most loving couple eighteen years ago, because they didn't know each other well enough at that time, they were two types of people, the longer they got along, the more they couldn't understand each other, and in the end, they lost the ability to listen to each other. They spent eighteen years proving that when two people get married, they can't just think about love. ā
"More often than not, I'm thinking about myself, about the future, about my football career, since I played football many years ago, I knew that my talent was not good or bad, if I didn't work hard, I would never be able to play professionally, so over the years, I have been the one who has practiced the hardest in the team, if anyone practices more than me, I will definitely surpass him the next day, I am always reminding myself not to slack off, and now, I am in the echelon of Standard Liege, and in the face of more fierce competition, I should work harder, I enjoy this process of continuous improvement. ā
āā¦ā¦ā
Wang Nuo babbled for a long time, he had never said so many heartfelt words to a new friend, but he couldn't control it and poured it out, he was a little embarrassed, "I'm sorry for letting you listen to so much nagging." ā
Jia Xiaoxian hurriedly smiled and shook her head, she glanced at Wang Nuo quickly, lowered her head again, and muttered in a mosquito voice that almost only she could hear: "I like to listen to you." ā
"What did you say?"
"Hmm...... It's nothing. ā
The atmosphere suddenly became a little delicate.
At this moment, Jia Xiaoxian's mobile phone rang suddenly, she quickly connected the phone like a savior, it was Lisa calling, they were going back, but they couldn't find where Jia Xiaoxian was, Jia Xiaoxian reported the direction, and after a while, a white Skoda stopped in front of the two.
"I envy you both." Lisa rolled down the window glass and sighed.
"Envy what?" Wang Nuo asked.
"It was love at first sight!" Lisa smiled evilly, "Come on, you kidnapped Xiaoxian out, didn't you do anything bad?" ā
"Lisa!" Jia Xiaoxian screamed shyly.
"Okay, okay, no kidding," Lisa glanced at Jia Xiaoxian meaningfully, "Get in the car, go back and rest early, we have to go to Brussels tomorrow." ā
Jia Xiaoxian nodded, but didn't get into the car immediately, she took out a pen from the small bag she was carrying, plucked up the courage to grab Wang Nuo's hand, and wrote a string of numbers in his palm.
Wang Nuo could feel that Jia Xiaoxian's hand was trembling slightly when he wrote the number.
"Call me when you have time." She said, "I love talking to you. ā
