Chapter 64: Small Talk by the Fire

The weather is getting colder day by day, the dead branches of the campus are withering, and the cold wind is occasionally mixed with small snowflakes like ice cubes, and it seems that it is about to enter the hardest winter of the year in New England.

The students also ended their Thanksgiving break and went back to school.

As the end of the first semester approaches, the lively campus life has added a lot of tense learning atmosphere.

In the public hall on the first floor of the Dixon Building, a fireplace is blazing, and several boys are sitting on the sofa, sharing their experiences of living in the United States on Thanksgiving.

“…… It's a magical city, it's a museum without walls! ”

Chenchen had just finished telling the story of what he and Yi Ting had experienced in Annapolis City, and Yi Ting hurriedly added: "The time we listened to Hillary's speech in the State Capitol, that guy was old and thrilling, it was an American blockbuster!" ”

Yun Ze was stared at by his mother at home to brush up on the competition questions all the holiday, and he didn't succeed anywhere, listening to Chenchen and Yiting's descriptions with envy, beating his chest and saying: "Oops, the competition is too time-consuming, my brother has been in the United States for more than two years, and he has only been to MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) near Boston, or to participate in summer camps, and he has never played anywhere else, what a loss!" I really envy you, there is no mother staring at how free! ”

Oliver kept his head down and looked at his phone, Yun Ze deliberately touched Oliver's hair, and he was still looking at his phone just now, and immediately bounced up from the sofa: "Didn't you say that you are not allowed to move other people's hairstyles!" ”

"Stop playing with your phone, tell me where you went for Thanksgiving?" Yun Ze squeezed his eyes at Oliver.

"Still playing? It's the tenth grade, how can you still play kung fu? Oliver sighed, "My dad enrolled me in an SAT course in Boston for eight days. ”

"What's the situation, I'm not in a hurry in the eleventh grade this year, why are you in a hurry?" Yun Ze looked at this junior who didn't usually work hard in confusion.

"How can I compare to you, you have several important awards, and besides, you scored so high on the PSAT last year that even the SAT (one of the standardized tests in the American college entrance examination) naked test will not be much worse. I started taking the SAT early because I was planning to attend a film acting camp at New York University's Tisch School of the Arts this summer, and I couldn't find the whole time to prepare for the exam this summer. ”

Oliver said, holding up the phone in front of everyone, and asked with a gossipy face, "Look, what's going on?" ”

Yi Ting pursed his lips disdainfully and said, "Hey, hey, old Ao, what's the matter?" Are you interesting? Why are you staring at other girls' circle of friends? Rare people or what? Go straight to it! ”

"It's rare that you're a big-headed ghost! I didn't have a special look, but I happened to see her swiping the screen in the circle of friends again. Oliver said aggrievedly.

Yun Ze took the phone closer, and a pair of highly myopic eyes looked carefully at Oliver's phone screen through the lenses, "Tut-tut, take a look...... What's that called, Chinese suddenly can't tell......"

"Shadow of the Coconut Wind Tree!" Oliver continued.

"Yes, yes, yes! Look at the shadow of this coconut wind tree, the blue sea and blue sky! Yun Ze said, using his hands to draw out the continuous waves, just like in the sketches of Zhao Benshan and Song Dandan, Grandma Baiyun said "There are mountains of people, gongs and drums are noisy".

He flipped to the next photo and was suddenly surprised: "Hey, is this a golf course?" I can't see it, Bai Xinrui, a little girl, can also play golf. ”

"Good fellow, look at this big ship, it's old-fashioned!" Yi Ting said, pointing to a photo of a blonde lady and a beautiful Chinese woman, holding champagne and smiling at each other on the deck.

"Big brother, that's a yacht, okay?" Oliver corrected by gently stroking his handsome hairstyle with his hand.

"I know this Chinese aunt, it's Bai Xinrui's star mother, who is that blonde aunt?" Yi Ting scratched his scalp and asked.

"What's the aunt? That's Kevin's mother, I've seen the deity, and it's said that the younger one is the queen beauty pageant champion! The pimples on Yun Ze's face were particularly evident by the fire in the fireplace.

"Is this on the West Coast? Otherwise, how could they wear so little, compared to our northeast, it is simply two heavens of ice and fire. As a southerner, Chenchen has never been able to stand the cold, so he sits closest to the fireplace, and from time to time he reaches for a roast by the fire.

"It's not just the weather that's hot, and there's no one else looking at the harmonious atmosphere." When Yun Ze said this, he deliberately lowered his voice and said, "Shouldn't it be the prelude to the marriage of a wealthy family?" ”

"You think too much senior, Bai Xinrui is only thirteen years old, and this is not a child marriage in India." Chenchen said with a smile.

During the Thanksgiving holiday, Bai Xinrui and her mother were invited by the Kevin family to visit a mansion near Hawaii. The mansion sits right next to a golf course, and sitting on the home lawn, you can enjoy the view of the turquoise sea, black volcanic rocks and large coconut palms. It is also the unique geographical location of this mansion that has contributed a lot of enviable photos of the island scenery to Bai Xinrui's circle of friends.

It's nice to see the island of Hawaii in the midst of the cold of the New England winter, but they don't overlook some of the key elements, such as: the early morning golf course, the intimate action of Kevin teaching Bai Xinrui to swing; On the white recliner on the beach in the afternoon, the tacit expression of the two mothers sunbathing and chatting happily; At the dinner table, the two families sat intimately around and listened to the happy smile of the new head of this centuries-old family......

"Is this an unofficial meeting between the two major business giants of China and the United States?" Oliver pointed to a photo of the two families eating together and teased: "It seems that the elementary school girl wants to contribute to the economic cooperation between China and the United States?" ”

"The flow of capital and the convergence of operations seem to be extending from the boardroom to the bedroom." As a science student who prides himself on being profound, Shao Yunze can't help but express his views at this time.

"Are you speaking too bluntly?" As soon as Yi Ting heard the bedroom, he couldn't help but think of some indescribable pictures.

"I mean, they rely on marriage to achieve the binding of interests, what do you think?" Yun Ze looked at Yi Ting's red cheeks under the fire, and deliberately teased him.

Yi Ting opened his mouth and was speechless for a long time, and when he came, he parroted Yun Ze's words: "I...... I'm also talking about ...... realized, then what kind of interests are bundled. ”
