Xia Xing hears his words a Leng, in the heart secretly exclaim.
If Jake didn't take the initiative to identify herself just now, she can guarantee that she can't see that he is the person she hit yesterday.
Although her discomfort accounted for a large part yesterday, it was more due to Jake's suit at this time.
She thought that's probably what she said.
Buddha depends on gold and man on clothes.
Thinking about this, Xia Xing quickly lowered his head to look for something on the ground. After confirming that there was no man falling around them, he was secretly relieved and said: "I'm sorry about yesterday. You see you bumped me today, or you'll be even. Then you're just so worried. It should be something urgent. Then I won't disturb you. Goodbye."
"Wait a minute." Jake picks up the notebook and map on the ground. When his eyes touch the contents of the notebook, he smiles.
"There is an old Chinese saying that" you are destined to meet a thousand miles away. "In the past two days, you and miss have bumped into each other twice. Doesn't miss think it's a kind of fate?"
Jake reached out and pulled out the map from his notebook. "Looking at the young lady, she seems to need a guide very much. If the young lady doesn't mind, I can help you."
Xia Xing just a smile, stretched out his hand to grab the notebook and map, "I don't think it's necessary, compared with a stranger, I believe in my intuition."
"Well. As an apology for bumping into the young lady, can I invite her to the opposite cafe for a cup of coffee? " Jake nodded a smile and made a gesture to Xia Xing, "of course, if the lady has something she wants to inquire about, as long as I know, she will answer everything and say everything."
He finish saying intentionally pointed to the notebook in the hand of Xia Xing, smile a face harmless.
"It's all you know and all you say." Xia Xing sighed and mixed the map into his notebook again. Then he glared at Jake and said, "if you don't mind, can you add my surname before calling me miss? My name is Xia. You can call me Miss Xia. "
Xia Xing took a look at his face, reached out and touched his ear, and added in some awkward English: "actually, I can understand English, you don't have to change to Chinese and speak with me.". )
Jake was stunned for a moment when he heard her words, then he shook his head and said, "no, no, I like Chinese very much, and I also like China very much. If Miss Xia doesn't dislike my poor Chinese, I'd like to talk in Chinese."
Xia Xing shrugged, "whatever you want."
In silence, she took the lead to the coffee shop Jake said.
As soon as they walked into the kaweh coffee bar and sat down, it began to drizzle outside the window. The long and thin rain fell down the sky, slapped on the French window, and then slowly slipped down into the puddle on the ground.
When Jake saw Xia Xing looking out of the window all the time, he couldn't help frowning and said, "I wanted to ask Miss Xia to thank me for my foresight, but now it seems that Miss Xia prefers to get in the rain?"
In silence, Jake seems to be curious about what Xia Xing is looking at, but with her action, he holds his head up and looks out of the window.
Xia Xing takes the menu from the waiter and hands it to Jake with a smile. "Thank you for your foresight. You order first."
"Then I'm welcome." Jake smiles, reaches for the menu, looks at it, and says, "alatte, please."
A latte, please
In the end, Jake handed the menu back to Xia Xing, "if Miss Xia likes dessert, you can try their red velvet naked cake."
"Thank you." Xia Xing nodded, took the menu, glanced at it and said, "aglass of mocha, please.". )
When Jake heard her, he stopped the waiter and said, "waitaminute, please ddaredvelvetcakehere.Thankyou "
" nojustamoment, please. "
(please wait a moment, here is another red velvet naked cake, thank you.
No, please wait. )
after seeing the waiter go away, Xia Xing focuses on Jake, "Jake said you like Chinese very much, right?"
Jake nodded and looked at Xia Xing suspiciously. "Yes, I once learned Chinese from my Chinese roommate for several years. How did Miss Xia suddenly ask this?"
"Nothing." Xia Xing lowered his head and said with a smile, "I just want to ask you to explain a Chinese idiom," force people to be difficult. "Do you know what it means?"Jake laughs. "It's an idiom. I know that my Chinese roommate and I became good friends because of this idiom."
When he said that, he stopped for a moment. After the waiter put down the coffee and cake, he continued to say, "to force someone to do something is to force them to do something they can't or don't want to do. How did Miss Xia suddenly mention this? "
Xia Xing heard the speech, the corner of his mouth twitched, looked up to Jake's innocent blue eyes, and sighed: "forget it, it's nothing, you forget what I just said."
Jake picked up his eyebrows, put up his coffee cup with a smile, took a sip, and then said, "in fact, I know Miss Xia asked me what it means to force others to be difficult, but in my opinion, delicious food should be shared."
He put down the coffee cup and put the red velvet naked cake in the middle in front of Xia Xing. "If Miss Xia doesn't believe me, you can try it."
Xia Xing frowned, looked at the cake in the small plate in front of him, and looked at Jake who was looking forward to it. He hesitated for a moment, then picked up a small spoon and took a mouthful. He immediately felt a burst of sweetness on the tip of his tongue.
Jake saw her eyebrows spread out, and immediately said, "how about Miss Xia? I didn't lie to you
"It's really delicious." Xia Xing nodded, put down the spoon, embarrassed toward Jake smile, said: "although I don't like sweet food, but still thank you for your recommendation."
"I see. Then I'll make it hard for you." Jake said and touched his nose. "Don't eat if you don't like it. I asked the waiter to cancel
Language closed, he reached out to carry the dish, but Xia Xing stopped, "it doesn't matter, this cake doesn't taste very sweet, and it's wrong to waste food in our country."
Jake sneered, took his hand back and said, "I know that, too. It's a poem. Let me see what it's called?"
Xia Xing hears his words a Leng, immediately friendly remind a way: "compassion agriculture two."
"Right, right, showing sympathy for the peasants." When Jake heard the words, he immediately connected, as if to express himself. He had really studied Chinese, and then he said, "weeding day is at noon, sweat drips down the soil, but it's hard for every grain of Chinese food."
Xia Xing looked at Jake with a proud face and felt funny, "Jake, I think you should thank the roommate who taught you Chinese. After all, he taught you the essence of Chinese."
