She put up a sunshade in front of her forehead with her hand, narrowed her eyes slightly, but saw John who hadn't seen for two or three months. She immediately smiled: "it's you, John! Haven't seen you for a long time. How are you recently?"

Although John was a good friend with Chris on weekdays, he was surprised by Chris's beauty at this time. He slowed down for fear of disturbing the tranquil beauty like an oil painting.

John sighed involuntarily, "Chris, you've become more and more beautiful since you came back from China!"

Chris smiled and stroked her curly hair by her ear: "really? But I don't think it has changed?"

John shook his head: "no, you have a mysterious and quiet beauty. It's really breathtaking!"

Chris closed the book with a smile and said, "John, are you here to compliment me today? If so, thank you. If not, please tell me your business, because..." Chris shook the book in her hand "... I have to prepare my graduation thesis."

John looked intently, but he saw that Chris was holding a Chinese book with square characters. John grinned and said, "ha, I know these words..."

With that, John sat beside Chris and carefully identified the words in the writing.

But he stared at it for a while. He only felt that he looked familiar with these words, but he couldn't say it. He just scratched his ears and scratched his cheeks.

Chris chuckled and taunted in Chinese: "it's said that your Chinese is far from enough. Don't you believe it!"

John stared at a pair of bull eyes, unconvinced and retorted in some awkward Chinese: "nonsense, I am now the fastest improving student in the Chinese class of the Confucius Institute. Even the teacher praised me for my fast progress!"

Chris giggled, "well, the fastest progress, sir, why can't you recognize such a simple four words?"

John burst out another mouthful of English and said, "who makes these words look so strange? Damn, what are these four words?"

Chris could not help laughing when she saw that John was so anxious that the veins on his forehead rose. She said, "I'm teasing you. These words are the Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic, which is an ancient Chinese seal script. Even many Chinese people may not recognize it! This is a Book cherished by my grandmother. I didn't recognize these words when she handed it to me."

John breathed a sigh of relief and patted his chest in shock: "well, that means it's not my Chinese level. Chris, you scared me just now. I thought my Chinese was still as bad as shit. If it was the same as before, the master should not want me again!"

Chris looked at John with a smile. Her beautiful eyes suddenly showed a puzzled color: "John, do you want to learn kung fu so much?"

John nodded hard without hesitation and said, "of course! Chris, when you first came back a few months ago, didn't you want to learn from your teacher every day? Why do you ask such a question now?"
