Chapter 49: Translation

Just as he turned to walk out, Zhang Shaoyuan stopped and looked at Fan Xi.

Su Wen was also stunned for a moment. "Li Xi, this is not a joke. The foreign guest tomorrow is a famous foreign architect who is coming to Guangzhou for an inspection. This is related to the future urban planning and construction of Guangzhou. Professionals are required. I was supposed to be the personal translator for the leaders of the Urban Construction Bureau tomorrow, but I suddenly fell ill and can't come. I have to find a reliable translator to replace me quickly. I can't miss the event!"

Fan Xi didn't explain much and just started talking to Su Wen in English...

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became surprisingly quiet. Geng Ailing only heard the two people chattering for a long time. Su Wen's face became more and more excited, and even Zhang Shaoyuan, who had always been calm and composed, looked a little shocked.

After the two of them chatted in English about some professional topics that might be discussed tomorrow, Su Wen excitedly exclaimed in English, "Li Xi, how come your English is so amazing? Your pronunciation is so perfect! You even understand such professional vocabulary. It feels like you speak English better than I do. You really surprise me!"

Fan Xi also lied fluently in English: "I have loved English since I was a child. We had a radio at home, and I listened to English every day. Later, I saved some money and bought some English books. Gradually, I became fluent in the language."

"You're amazing! You're my idol! You've learned so well even on your own!"

"No, no, I'm still far behind you. I need to learn more from you in the future!"

"Let's make progress together and learn together!"

Finally, the two switched back to Chinese...

Fan Xi smiled and asked, "Su Wen, do you think I can help you tomorrow?"

"Yes, of course you can! You have no problem communicating with foreigners at your level!"

"Oh, you two are finally saying that I can understand what you say!" Geng Ailing teased with a smile.

Su Wen excitedly said to Zhang Shaoyuan, "Brother Yuan, did you hear that? Li Xi's English is just as good as mine. You don't need to help me find someone. Just let Li Xi do it for me tomorrow!"

Zhang Shaoyuan nodded, said goodbye to a few people again, and left the ward.

"By the way, Li Xi, do you have formal attire? We need to dress formally to receive foreign guests tomorrow."

Fan Xi shook her head. How could she have any formal clothes? She had been busy making clothes for others these days and had only made a simple set of casual clothes for herself, which she only wore when she went out. Usually at home she wore the two sets of patched clothes that she had from the past.

"Then go back quickly and make yourself a set. It should be ready in half a day. If that doesn't work, you can make the one you made for me smaller." Su Wen's tone was a little anxious.

"Yes, Li Xi, you go back first. I'll stay here with Su Wen. This is the most important thing." Geng Ailing also said quickly.

"Okay, then I'll go back first and come find you guys when I'm done."

She is petite, about 1.2 meters tall, and weighs at most 90 kilograms. She looks very slender and thin, while Su Wen is 1.72 meters tall, so she definitely cannot wear Su Wen's clothes. She should make a simple set for herself!

When Fan Xi returned home, she used light blue and red suit fabrics to simply make herself a lapel professional-style dress, which looked generous and decent, yet also charming and lively.

There was only one reason why this material wasn't used to make a more formal suit, and that was to save fabric! Saving fabric was ingrained in Fan Xi's bones. Even though she had just been rewarded with a few yuan for capturing an enemy spy, she still couldn't bear to waste even a foot of fabric!
