Nine days later, at the entrance of Sanjiang Hotel, a beautiful foreign girl was standing at the door, constantly looking around. It's already past seven in the evening, and judging from her anxious expression, she seemed to be waiting for someone.
Behind the girl stood four burly men, and seeing her constantly turning her head to look around, one of them couldn't help but remind her: "Miss Dài Fēi, we are currently in Huá Guó, you should pay attention to your image, haven't you noticed that everyone is staring at you?"
Dai Feier heard this and pouted, saying: "The people of Hua Guo are very enthusiastic, they're just expressing their friendliness, aren't they? - Why hasn't the translation come yet? I'm still waiting to go shopping at the night market!"
Dai Feier has been in China for nine days, and she had a great time during these nine days. Apart from accompanying her parents to some welcome banquets, she spent most of the rest of the time playing. Dai Feier first toured Beijing, then climbed the Great Wall for a whole day, later went to Xi'an to see the Terracotta Warriors, and only arrived in Sanjiang today. No choice, Dad had to come here on business, otherwise according to her idea, she would have gone to Shaolin Temple to learn Chinese martial arts by now.
Although it was 5 pm when she got off the plane, Dafei didn't feel tired at all. She had already arranged with the reception staff from Sanjiang to assign a translator to accompany her to visit the night market in the evening. They were supposed to meet at the hotel entrance at 7 o'clock, but now it was almost 7:30 and there was no sign of anyone.
Actually, Dafei's father had a professional Chinese translator, but this guy was already exhausted from the trip and jet-lagged on the plane. In his state, it wasn't just translating that was difficult, even walking was a chore. Dafei's parents were also extremely tired, as soon as they arrived at the hotel, the two of them immediately fell asleep on the bed. Even without her parents accompanying her, Dafei didn't think much of it, after all, she had bodyguards and translators, so there was nothing to worry about... but where was this translator anyway?
Dai Feier continued to look around, and after a while, a Santana sedan stopped in front of the hotel entrance. A middle-aged man got out of the car and walked up to Dai Feier, saying in broken English: "Miss Dai Feier, I'm really sorry, our translator can't make it..."
Dai Feier was taken aback by these words and saw her open her eyes wide, saying: "Why? Is it because the remuneration we paid is too little?"
The middle-aged man finally understood what Daisy meant after some effort, and he shook his head repeatedly: "No, no, no! A daily salary of $200 is already a lot. She was hospitalized due to a sudden illness, so..."
Dai Feier heard this and looked extremely disappointed. It was already so late, and it would be impossible to find a translator now. She let out a sigh, pouted her mouth and said: "Okay... anyway, thank you."
The middle-aged man apologized again after hearing this, and then got on the car to leave. Dai Feier was left standing at the hotel entrance with a few bodyguards, looking somewhat dispirited. After a while, she hummed: "Hmph, can't I go by myself without an interpreter?"
After she finished speaking, she walked forward. The bodyguard immediately stepped forward to persuade her: "Miss Dafei, we are not familiar with this place at all. Going out like this will get you lost. You'd better go back and rest."
Dai Feier ignored him and continued walking forward, the bodyguard had no choice but to follow behind. After a short while, someone spoke up in English, "Miss... do you need a translator? I think I can handle this job..."
Dai Feier was overjoyed when she heard this and immediately turned her head to look - the speaker was a small-sized young man from Hua Guo, his height estimated to be less than 1.6 meters. He wore very loose clothes with several patches on them, and his yellow sneakers were also tattered. This outfit was simply too shabby. Looking further back, the young man had two dirty snake skin bags slung over his shoulder, the bags were bulging, it was unknown what was inside.
What surprised Dai Fei the most was that this young man actually had injuries. His face was not only severely bruised, but his arm exposed under his sleeve was also a deep purple color. He looked exactly like a street urchin who survived by rummaging through trash. As for how he got these injuries, it was impossible to know.
The bodyguards found the young man somewhat strange, so they quickly intercepted between the two, and then stared at him with vigilant eyes. The Chinese boy was frightened and retreated two steps. Seeing that the bodyguards did not make any further moves, he let out a sigh of relief, and then he fixed his gaze on Dai Fei'er, his eyes full of hopeful color.
Dai Feier rotated her azure eyes, sizing up the young man from head to toe, and remained silent for a long time.
The young man saw her like this, and the color of expectation in his eyes disappeared immediately. Then he stuttered: "I'm really sorry to disturb you... I'll leave now..."
The young man saw that Dafei'er was not speaking, and thought she had seen his shabby appearance and did not want him to be her translator. He had originally mustered up the courage to speak, but now his courage was exhausted. Was he waiting for the dishes to be served before leaving?
The young man turned and walked forward, his slender figure bent under the weight of two snake-skin bags slung over his back, which were stuffed with things. His spine was arched, and as he walked with a limp, his silhouette looked rather desolate.
Dai Feier was stunned for a moment, and when the young man from Hua Guo walked out more than 20 meters away, she finally reacted and shouted loudly: "Hey - wait! Do you really have the ability to be my translator?"
The young Chinese man immediately rekindled his hopes upon hearing this, and quickly put down the snakeskin bag on his back, stepping forward to say to Daphne in fluent English: "Just listen to my pronunciation and you'll know that my English is absolutely fine!"
The young man didn't boast, and Dafei'er thought his spoken language was very smooth, even with a bit of an American accent. Dafei'er smiled and said: "Then I'll hire you as my temporary translator, I want to go to the night market now, do you know how to get there?"
The young man nodded vigorously and said, "I'm a local, I know this place very well!"
Dai Feier looked delighted, and she stretched out her slender hand to the young man, saying: "Thank you for your help. First of all, let's get acquainted - my name is Dai Feier, from America."
The young man, seeing the situation, nervously took off the black gloves on his hands and rubbed his palms vigorously on his body a few times. He didn't rub them at first, but as a result, the more he rubbed, the dirtier his palms became. The young man looked quite embarrassed in this situation, and almost instantly, a red flush appeared on his pale purple face.
"Why don't you go wash your hands first - and while you're at it, wash your face too, it's all dirty."
The young man nodded and walked to the water pool in front of the hotel, after a while, he finished washing up. When he returned, Dai Feier stretched out her hand again: "I am Dai Feier, nice to meet you."
The young man stretched out his right hand, shook hands with Dafei'er, and smiled all over his face: "Dafei'er hello, my name is Feng Xiaotian, I'm very happy to serve you."
