Chapter 164 Dora's Troubles
Dora happened to have a flight on the same day as Namier, so Zhang Wei simply went to the airport to pick them up. The time difference was less than two hours, and she even specially cut some roses from the yard to bring over.
In order to prevent Namir and Manny from thinking that she was partial, she prepared three bouquets of flowers. Chris, as before, quietly helped to select the best flowers.
This reminded Zhang Wei of her idea of making some money many years ago. The flowers are still blooming, but time has gone by.
Not only was she filled with memories of the roses in the backyard, but Manny and Namier, who had received the roses, took one look and said:
"Did you pick this at home? It's still beautiful! Thank you."
"The roses have already bloomed. Looks like I came back just in time!"
Even Dora remembered and asked immediately, "Is this your rose? It's the best welcome gift! I'm so happy to see you again!"
"I'm happy too, but how come you grow so fast!" Zhang Wei looked at Dora in surprise, who was a head taller than him.
Namir teased, "I think Vera would be happier if you were shorter!"
Zhang Wei used to think that he was not short, and was actually much taller than in his previous life. Unexpectedly, when standing with everyone else, he turned into a dwarf again.
Dora is at least 1.75 meters tall. Her facial features haven't changed much, but she looks whiter. I guess the sunshine in Switzerland is not as good as in New York, which is not a good thing for white people, so Zhang Wei didn't say anything.
But Dora has really developed well. She is tall and has a curvy figure. If it weren't for the childish look on her face, you really wouldn't be able to tell that she is only fourteen years old.
"You've changed so much, Dora. It feels like I haven't seen you for ten years!"
“You haven’t changed much.”
"Oh, this doesn't sound like good news!" Zhang Wei said pretending to be sad.
"I was just joking. You've become even more beautiful and calm. Is this the British style?"
After Dora finished speaking, her eyes wandered between Namir and Manny. Seeing that Namir was still in a hurry, she shook her head.
"Because we've all grown up. Just now at the exit, I was wondering where this superstar came from!"
Namir said impatiently at this point, "How long are you going to keep praising each other? I think we need to go home before dinner."
Dora shook her head: "It's obvious that you haven't learned enough. Look at Manny, he's not like you."
At this time, Manny was helping them guard their luggage and waiting for them to greet him calmly. There was no impatience on his face, and he was nothing like the young boy Namir.
Zhang Wei wanted to speak up for Dewen at this moment: After all, the school isn't a god...
This time, Dora went to live with Zhang Wei at Wilson's house. Unlike the Wilsons, her family was not often in New York City and traveled around the world. When she went back, she was alone with her staff.
She was already feeling lonely enough in Switzerland, so at Zhang Wei's strong invitation she agreed to come and live with them.
Although Leida had not returned yet, the Wilsons were already very happy. Betty was also very happy. It had been a long time since so many people had lived in this house.
The dinner was exceptionally sumptuous, and for the first time ever, the Wilsons were in a hurry to leave without finishing their meal. They watched the children and Dora chatting animatedly with gentle smiles in their eyes.
They talked about their studies and daily lives, shared their difficulties and embarrassing moments, and did not feel unfamiliar with each other because they had not seen each other for a long time.
When she and Dora were lying on the bed, they did not stop communicating. They talked about some topics between girls and talked about the classmates and roommates they met later.
Finally Dora sighed:
"Vera, although you have always been my friend, it was only after I went to Switzerland that I realized that you will be my best friend. No one can replace you in my heart."
Zhang Wei curled his lips in the darkness: "It's my honor. I was just about to tell you that you are my best friend."
The friends you meet when you are a child are really different from the friends you meet when you grow up. Although Zhang Wei and Tracy Hayat get along well with each other now, there are some things she will not tell them, as she always feels that there is some gap. But Dora is different.
She told Dora how she had climbed the wall to uncover the strange things, and also said that she had eaten the communion with only one piece of bread in order to catch her, which made her laugh.
"You really climbed down like that? You're really amazing!"
"You mean you saw a boy discover you? He claimed to be doing an experiment?"
"How interesting! I wish I were with you!"
Dora sighed with envy and then talked about her school life in Switzerland.
In her words, everyone is boring and has nothing to do every day. No one cares much about their studies, but only cares about what brand names to buy and what famous dinners to attend. In the end, they can graduate and have a good resume anyway.
Their purpose of studying there is to build connections. There are students from all over the world. Most of the students there are descendants of businessmen or celebrities from various countries. They are proud to join a higher circle.
The school environment is extremely superior. In winter, all students will move to the campus at the foot of the Alps, which is specially prepared for skiing.
Because it is a fashion for celebrities to go skiing in the Alps, if you don’t understand this sport, it’s like you can’t enter the so-called "upper" society circle.
Dora was full of fatigue when she said this. Zhang Wei knew that she never liked socializing and dealing with people. Her parents might prefer this kind of life, but Dora was obviously not used to it.
"Have you told your parents what you think?" Zhang Wei asked.
"They never cared about it, you know, that's how it was before."
Zhang Wei thought that when Dora was seven or eight years old, she rarely saw her parents, and only the nanny and staff were with her at home.
"Sorry, I don't know." Zhang Wei thought that if she had known earlier, she could have invited her to visit England during the holidays, and maybe she could also travel to Switzerland.
"No, you don't have to apologize. I didn't have time to get together with you before. All my vacations were always filled with various parties arranged by them."
"I was able to come back this time because I begged them for a long time."
"Then we must cherish this time and spend it happily!"
Zhang Wei thought that if she went to a school like Dora for junior high school, she would not be able to adapt. In fact, her nature was quite similar to Dora's. Both of them disliked socializing and hated false excitement and meaningless things.
Thinking of this, she was once again very grateful to the Wilsons. There might be some unpleasant things in Devon, but the overall atmosphere was still a learning atmosphere, which she liked quite a bit.
