"Sorry, it's my fault!"
Gu Qingcheng quickly admitted her mistake, then said with a smile, "Yes, we are friends!"
She first said this in D language, and then repeated it to Ma Yong in Mandarin.
"Great, Ms. Gu, can you, can you help me?"
Ma Yong rubbed his hands, his face full of smiles.
Gu Qingcheng did not rush to introduce himself, but politely asked Felix's opinion: "Mr. Felix, this Commander Ma is my friend. He wants to meet you. Is that okay?"
After saying that, Gu Qingcheng did not forget to explain to Ma Yong, "General, I will first seek Mr. Felix's permission. This is social etiquette, and we can't be too rude."
Ma Yong didn't think Gu Qingcheng was taking the opportunity to put on airs.
Ma Yong once heard the governor say that those foreigners were particularly particular.
What etiquette, what privacy, what a mess of rules.
These rough guys don't understand at all. Sometimes, when they offend foreigners, they don't even know what they did wrong.
It’s best to be like Ms. Gu, who understands the customs of foreigners and doesn’t forget to explain them to him.
With Gu Qingcheng as a comparison, Ma Yong felt that Miss Chen was more and more unreliable.
Just like just now, she seemed to have dragged herself over to chat with Mr. Felix.
Even if she and Felix were friends, it didn't seem appropriate according to Western rules.
What's more, Ma Yong saw clearly that Mr. Felix was obviously stunned when he first saw Miss Chen.
He didn't know Miss Chen at all, or rather, they were not very familiar with each other!
...This little bitch, it was clearly her who was bragging and reckless, but she still blamed him for messing things up!
It was a waste of his patience for several days, making her eat bloody steaks and drink bitter medicine soup.
The more Ma Yong thought about it, the angrier he became. At this moment, he completely lost the desire to marry Miss Chen.
She's such a fool, it's better to marry Ms. Gu than to marry her!
Ma Yong thought viciously.
Felix was also satisfied after hearing what Gu Qingcheng said. He liked people who had a sense of propriety and boundaries.
"Can!"
Felix nodded reservedly.
After getting the other party's permission, Gu Qingcheng smiled and introduced, "Hello, Mr. Felix, this is Commander Ma Yong!"
Then, she said to Ma Yong in Mandarin, "General, Mr. Felix has agreed to let me introduce you to him. You can say 'hello' to him or just nod your head."
"General, don't worry, I will help you translate!"
Not being able to speak the language is not something to be ashamed of.
There is no need to be ashamed of this, and there is no need to make a fool of yourself by pretending to know something you don't.
Gu Qingcheng wanted to convey this kind of "confidence" to Ma Yong.
After hearing what Gu Qingcheng said, Ma Yong was no longer so nervous.
He smiled and said to Felix, "Hello!"
"Mud howl!" Felix stretched out his hand entirely for Gu Qingcheng's sake.
Ma Yong had seen the handshake etiquette of foreigners, so this time, without Gu Qingcheng's reminder, he took the initiative to extend his hand.
The two shook hands lightly, which was considered as initial contact.
Gu Qingcheng: ...It seems that I have a lot to learn.
She is well versed in ancient rituals, and her appearance and demeanor are exemplary.
But she doesn't understand the Western etiquette of this era.
Gu Qingcheng will not be blindly self-deprecating, but she will not be arrogant either.
She is willing to learn all useful knowledge and skills.
Gu Qingcheng silently kept today's mistake in mind, but did not show it on her face.
Several rounds of competition at the racecourse have ended and people in the stands have begun to leave.
Felix greeted Ma Yong, but there was no further communication.
He and Bayer once again emphasized tomorrow's appointment with Gu Qingcheng, and then said goodbye.
After watching the two foreigners leave, Ma Yong finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Ms. Gu, thank you so much!"
Finally, I took the first step, which is a good start.
Moreover, he knew that Mr. Felix would come to the racecourse again tomorrow.
By then, he could definitely have an "accidental encounter".
As long as Ms. Gu is present, she can always help me turn the situation around.
"General, you are so kind! You have helped me so much, and I have yet to repay you."
Gu Qingcheng was still wearing a veil, revealing a pair of eyes that were as sharp as water and full of smiles.
"Oh, what's the point of repaying or not repaying? I just helped you out..."
Ma Yong saw that Gu Qingcheng did not become arrogant just because she hooked up with a foreigner. On the contrary, she was very sentimental. Ma Yong immediately felt that Ms. Gu was indeed reliable.
He wanted to say something else to improve the relationship.
Then an unhappy female voice was heard from afar, "Commander Ma, who is this lady?"
Miss Chen came over with a questioning tone in her voice.
It looked like the legal wife came to catch the adulterer.
Ma Yong originally didn't want to bother with Miss Chen, but considering that no matter how useless she was, she was introduced by the governor.
Her younger sister also married the young governor.
After weighing the pros and cons, Ma Yong suppressed his disgust and introduced, "Miss Chen, this is Ms. Gu!"
"Ms. Gu! This is Miss Chen!"
