Chapter 3: The Covenant
After that, this rare beauty complained to her about the American Chinese food in their fast food restaurant, and Qi Min also expressed her "high opinion" on Chinese food. In short, the other party seems to be quite happy to have someone who grew up eating real Chinese food to talk to him about Chinese food, so much so that the two sides left each other's contact information before leaving.
After entering the phone number, the beauty asked Qi Min, "So...... What's your name? โ
"Qi Min." Qi Min pulled down the mobile phone search bar, typed her name in Chinese and handed it to the other party.
This rare beauty took it and looked at it for three or four seconds, and then smiled a little awkwardly: "I'm very sorry...... Can you say that again? I don't have Chinese input method installed in my phone......"
For his level of Chinese, it is indeed understandable. Qi Min couldn't help but feel that this ABC might be more than two generations, although from the degree of his mixed race, it seems that he is at least half of Asian ancestry.
"You just write QiMin, I don't mind this kind of thing." Qi Min said.
The other party took her phone number and called her. Qi Min saved the number of the caller, and then asked, "Your name?" โ
"You can call me 'Anton,'" the beauty said, "and it just spells it upโ"
"Oh, of course I'll spell that word." Qi Min looked at him with some surprise, "I just didn't expect your name to be so ...... ะกะกะกะ STYLE. She asked, "What's your last name?" โ
"My last name...... It's not very important. Anton hesitated, "I mean, my passport doesn't have my last name on it......"
"Oh, okay." Qi Min asked, "This is not a file registration either, so I can directly record your real surname?" โ
"My last name is ......" Anton paused for a long moment, then had to say, "Forget it, I can't come up with a new last name in such a short time." โ
Qi Min was a little surprised, she had heard that some Chinese surnames were difficult to pronounce in English, but this didn't seem to be a problem when she was in front of another Chinese, right? "Don't you know your last name?"
"No, I don't have a last name." Anton whispered quickly, "That's weird, isn't it?" Why do people have to have a surname? For example, Burmese people don't have surnames, so don't they have the same life? โ
This sounds a little strange, but Qi Min still knows how to socialize, since the other party doesn't like to be called by his surname, then forget it. "OK, it's good to have no last name, and...... You don't have to call your last name here too often. โ
โโโโโโโโโโโโ
Qi Min felt that luck might be really conserved, and after she met a rare beauty, she experimented with bugs for several days, so much so that she had to go back to school to work overtime on Saturday.
Yelena stayed with her in the lab all morning, and at one o'clock in the afternoon, the results under the microscope were finally normal.
"To be honest, I think the BOSS asked you to do this project just to find someone to fix the microscope." Yelena propped her chin and said, "I heard Gary say that this microscope has been a problem for two years. โ
"Didn't Gary just come last year?" Qi Min asked as he took off his lab coat.
"Alas, you're finally leaving." Yelena got up from her chair, "Going shopping in the afternoon?" โ
However, before Qi Min could reply, Yelena's mobile phone suddenly rang, and she picked it up: "Freda! My dear...... Oh, I remember, of course I do...... I'm in, uh, I'm washing my face, just got up...... It's hard to wake up on a Saturday...... Good...... Half an hour later...... KISSYOU...... "Qishu.com".
"Your little girlfriend?" Qi Min raised his eyebrows and asked.
"I almost forgot." Yelena jumped off her desk, "That'...... I'll go first? Next time, when Freda has a class, we'll go out together. โ
"Oh no, no, don't talk like you have two girlfriends." Qi Min joked.
"You know, I've really thought about it......" Yelena said suddenly, seriously.
Qi Min hurriedly said, "I've never thought about it. โ
"Oh, Min, I didn't mean you." "The friendship between the Bolsheviks is indeniable, and I hope you think so," said Yelena, as she changed out of the slippers she wore in the laboratory. She continued, "If you want to play, you can play the Americans, and they're all easy anyway." โ
She can't bear to look directly at these three views, but objectively speaking, the American proletariat is indeed a great threat to internationalism after being bought by the capitalists and turning to imperialism. And one thing she said is quite right, Americans are very EASY.
Yelena happily went to find her little girlfriend, and Qi Min was thinking that she should also find someone. It's best that this person doesn't regard going out together as a serious thing like dating or falling in love, so as not to scold her as a "LOSER" like Qin Zhenjun did.
Qi Min opened WhatsApp and sent a message to Anton: "Do you have time today?" โ
โโโโโโโโโโโโ
Qi Min didn't know what exciting places Yelena took her little girlfriend to, but she asked Anton to go out for a stroll that was to go to a park - it's not that she doesn't want to go to places with higher consumption, it's just that the salary of doctoral students is too small.
However, because of the good weather, the park is also a bit interesting, and the lawn is full of picnickers, many children and dogs. This scene was pleasant, and Qi Min was in a good mood, but she found that Anton was looking down all the way, and he didn't seem to be interested in the surroundings at all.
"Hey, you don't seem to be happy." Qi Min asked, "Do you think it's boring here?" โ
"No......" Anton raised his eyes and looked away a little uncomfortably, "I just ...... A little sleepy. โ
"Really? Why don't you go back first? Qi Min said.
"No, no, I'm not sleepy." Anton had to admit, "I didn't wear contact lenses today because I just threw away the last pair of moon throws yesterday, but I can't find the next pair." โ
"Oh...... Are you nearsighted? Qi Min felt a little strange.
She was myopic herself, and 90% of her college class was myopia, but for a young ABC delivery man, myopia was a bit of a mismatch. But it's normal to think so in your heart, and if you say something like that, you might offend someone.
It's just that for this question, Anton said with some concealment: "The degree is not deep...... It's actually just hereditary ......"
"Hereditary, that's unlucky." Qi Min said with a smile, "I remember that there are studies that show that the heritability of myopia can reach more than 50%. But there is no way, people can't choose which part of their parents to inherit before they are born, can they? โ
"yes." Anton smiled at her, and for a moment it was like a spring flower blooming.
It was only a long time later that Qi Min learned that when he laughed, it didn't all mean happy. Or rather, her observation skills were not skilled enough to tell whether Anton was happy or disguised.
