Chapter 46 The first photo, Mr. John was angered by the translator!
As he got closer, Lu Chiyu heard everyone persuading the little boy to go to the turbine factory with a young policeman to find adults.
But the little boy refused to leave, which made everyone feel a headache. However, Lu Chiyu, who knew English, understood why he didn't want to leave.
He wanted to save a little orange cat that was shivering in fear because of the traffic on the road.
Seeing Gu Yuan in military uniform, the young policeman hurriedly told Gu Yuan what had happened for fear of misunderstanding.
It turned out that the foreign boy was almost hit by his police car when he tried to cross the road, so he hurried over to check.
Then he recognized that the other person was the son of a foreign engineer invited from the country to the turbine factory. Fearing that something might happen to him, he hurried to take him back to the turbine factory to find his parents.
But the little boy refused to go with him no matter what he said.
Seeing this, Lu Chiyu hurriedly told Gu Yuan the reason why the little boy refused to leave.
Everyone present was shocked to see that a little girl like Lu Chiyu could speak English. When everyone was wondering if Lu Chiyu was talking nonsense, Gu Yuan had already gone to rescue the cat.
Sure enough, when the little boy saw Gu Yuan saving the cat, he immediately burst into laughter and let go of the tree.
Gu Yuan was very skilled and came back with the kitten in his arms in a short while.
The little boy quickly took it and thanked Gu Yuan.
Seeing that Gu Yuan didn't understand what he meant, Lu Chiyu took over and said you're welcome. He also asked about his parents' whereabouts and told them to go with them to the turbine factory to find his father if he was lost.
The little boy was surprised at first that Lu Chiyu actually knew English, and then he excitedly started chattering with Lu Chiyu.
Then Lu Chiyu knew that his father was at the nearby Overseas Chinese Store. He saw the kitten running onto the road and was afraid that it would be hit by a car, so he followed it.
Lu Chiyu translated what the little boy said for everyone, and the young policeman invited Lu Chiyu and his wife to help him send the child back. After all, Lu Chiyu could speak English, which made it easier for him to communicate with the little boy.
Then Lu Chiyu asked the little boy to lead the way, but the little boy told her that he had forgotten where the Overseas Chinese Store led.
Lu Chiyu: ...
Fortunately, there are not many overseas Chinese stores in Hai City, and there are only two nearby. Lu Chiyu told this to Gu Yuan and the others. The young policeman asked the little boy whether the overseas Chinese store was on the first floor or the second floor, and immediately determined which one it was, and then led the way.
Before they arrived, they saw a foreigner in his forties leading three people in Zhongshan suits.
The foreigner was naturally the little boy's father, John. Lu Chiyu had already asked about the little boy's name, which was Jack.
When little Jack saw his father, he rushed over and told John about his experience. He also showed the little orange cat to his father as if he were presenting a treasure.
Lu Chiyu could see that John was on the verge of losing his temper, but he did not beat his son immediately. Instead, he went up to them and thanked them.
"Beautiful lady, thank you for helping me find Jack." He bowed very solemnly as he said this.
Lu Chiyu waved his hand and said, "Mr. John, you're welcome. It's just a small favor. But you have to keep an eye on little Jack from now on. He doesn't understand the language here and could easily get lost."
John nodded repeatedly: "Of course, of course."
The three men in Zhongshan suits following John were shocked when they saw that Lu Chiyu could communicate with John in English.
You have to know that the factory had gone to great lengths to invite translator Cheng from the provincial capital, but when he spoke to John, he stuttered. Sometimes they even suspected that he was translating incorrectly, and then their work became chaotic and stagnant.
At this time, the leader in Zhongshan suit even had a bold idea, but he quickly rejected it.
John and his son were very enthusiastic and insisted on treating Lu Chiyu and the others to a meal to express their gratitude. Lu Chiyu and Gu Yuan refused, saying that they were in a hurry to take pictures.
The young policeman also refused, as he had to go back to the bureau.
After separating from John and the others, Lu Chiyu and his wife came to the photo studio.
When the photographer heard that Lu Chiyu and the other handsome couple wanted to take a photo, his eyes lit up instantly.
First, Gu Yuan took a solo photo of himself, and then Lu Chiyu also took a solo photo.
This was Lu Chiyu's suggestion. In addition to the photo of the two of them together, they also sent their individual photos to Gu's mother.
The couple were at opposite ends of the spectrum when taking solo photos. Lu Chiyu was beaming, while Captain Gu was sitting upright...
For the last photo of the two of them, the photographer came up to them enthusiastically to guide their poses.
Let Lu Chiyu sit horizontally on a reclining chair, and then Gu Yuan stood behind her and put his hands on her shoulders.
“Crack.”
With the sound of a shutter click, Lu Chiyu and Gu Yuan’s first photo together was completed!
Time stands still.
Because it was inconvenient for them to come to the city, the photos were taken expedited.
Then he posted two single photos and one group photo sent to Gu's mother. Lu Chiyu and his wife also kept a copy.
It cost more than seven dollars for six photos.
When they were leaving, the photographer asked politely if he could print a photo of them and display it in the store, and he would waive half the fee for them.
However, Lu Chiyu and the others refused. They didn't want their photos to be seen by others, and Gu Yuan's job was special and not suitable for doing so.
When the photographer heard this, he slapped his forehead and said that he had forgotten that Gu Yuan was a soldier. He was completely fascinated by their perfect match.
Seeing people praising them for being a good match, Lu Chiyu and the others were naturally happy and didn't care.
It was already lunch time when they came out of the photo studio. Seeing a state-owned restaurant not far away, they went in.
John was so furious in the restaurant that he almost kicked the so-called translator away when he saw him order a table of food that had nothing to do with what he asked for.
And he could tolerate it if people just ordered random dishes for him, but what he couldn't tolerate the most was random translations for him at work.
For example, he asked the worker assistant to do this, but Cheng the translator asked the worker to do that, resulting in the work becoming more and more chaotic after three or four days.
In this situation, when will he, his wife and son be able to go home?
John now regretted that when he saw the beautiful girl today, he was so focused on expressing his gratitude to her that he forgot to take the opportunity to invite her to be his translator.
Now that they were gone, he fell back into the hands of Cheng the translator. Even if he wanted to invite the girl again, no one would understand him.
It's really like crying out to heaven and earth but no one helps. Who can understand this frustration?
Suddenly John felt that his life was hopeless. If this continued, he would not be able to return home for ten months, let alone one.
At this time, in addition to John, Cheng the translator sitting next to him, and the three people in Zhongshan suits that Lu Chiyu had seen before, there was also a man over fifty years old with a dignified look sitting at the table.
This man was Nie Dahai, the director of the steam turbine factory. Coming from a military background, he had a naturally dignified gaze. Seeing John's irritable expression, he couldn't help but frown and asked Cheng the translator:
"Xiao Cheng, Mr. John seems very unhappy. Can you help me ask him if he needs anything? We must entertain the technicians."
Under Nie Dahai's majestic gaze, Cheng the translator almost broke out in cold sweat on his forehead when he heard the words!
