Chapter 177 Chen Zhan takes over the simultaneous interpretation work
No one was seen in the center of the venue, and reporters were still waiting for interviews, so Zhou Jingyu had to ask Bai Qi to go and see if something had happened to Chen Zan.
Otherwise, with her cautious work style, she would not run around for no reason at such a large event.
Bai Qi received the order to look for the person. Zhou Jingyu gave the reporter 20 minutes to interview. When he came out, the representative of Group F had already come on stage to speak.
The simultaneous female interpreter on the stage wore a white stand-up collar shirt and a black and gold buckled belt around her waist, which seemed to be a perfect dividing line, making her waist look slender and tall.
When Chen Zhan went out today, she wore light makeup, with fair teeth and red lips. Her hair was pulled straight, with her long black hair draped on one side and tucked behind her ear. She had a classic oriental look, with fair skin and well-proportioned features.
She looks young and usually doesn't wear makeup or dress up. She can just tie her hair into a bun and act like a high school student without any problem. So when she went on stage, she wore a pair of white transparent rimless glasses, and her whole person exuded a cool and intelligent feeling.
Zhou Jingyu stood nearby and could almost feel how the international media doted on Chen Zan when she was standing at the simultaneous interpretation desk because of her outstanding appearance and oriental temperament, pressing the shutter button repeatedly.
After studying abroad for several years and receiving systematic training, Chen Zan's ability to translate texts is unquestionable. The clear and cold sound like the collision of jade instantly spread throughout the venue.
She has a nice voice. When Zhou Jingyu first met her, he was attracted to her and thought that this girl's voice was very suitable for a job in broadcasting.
Unfortunately, she was very afraid of him and didn't talk much, so the conversation ended abruptly after just a few sentences.
Zhang Qing's astonished voice came from the side, "Miss Chen is so outstanding and beautiful."
Zhou Jingyu nodded without comment, and a smile unconsciously appeared on the corner of his mouth.
She is not only beautiful, but also dazzling.
After the five-minute simultaneous interpretation, Chen Zan's legs and feet felt weak when she walked off the stage. Although she appeared calm on stage, that was all an act.
She had given speeches at competitions before, but this was her first time performing on stage in front of the media, cameras, and hundreds of people in the venue.
Half an hour ago, when Zhou Jingyu was still giving a speech on the stage, Chen Zan noticed that Teacher Pei Yan's lips were bleeding from biting them, and beads of sweat the size of beans were constantly oozing from her forehead.
Chen Zhan was worried, so he quickly went to find the emergency team. When Pei Yan was carried into the ambulance, she held Chen Zhan's hand tightly and said, "If I can't come back, you can take my place during the simultaneous interpretation."
As if guessing what Chen Zhan was about to say, Pei Yan quickly said, "I just sent a message to report that it's in accordance with the procedures for you to go on stage. Chen Zhan, don't mess it up for me, otherwise you will never be able to enter the Translation Department in your life. Do you hear me?"
Under the worried and envious eyes of other students, Chen Zan looked calm on the surface, but he was extremely nervous on the inside. However, he thought that what he was best at since he was a child was to deal with various exams and competitions. He had finally passed all the tests and was just one step away from entering the Translation Department. If he failed here, it would be a loss.
So you can only win!!!
After she went on stage, she was very nervous, but she started to perform with ease in the field she was best at. It was not until she got off the stage that she could not believe that she had actually completed her first large-scale international simultaneous interpretation.
So after getting off the stage, Chen Zan realized it belatedly and couldn't help but reach for the wall next to her because her legs were weak. As a result, someone gently lifted her arm, allowing her to steady herself.
"careful."
The man's voice was low.
Chen Zan was stunned for a moment, then looked up and met Zhou Jingyu's eyes, which were dark but could not hide the tenderness and love behind the lenses.
Zhou Jingyu simply extended his hand to help her gain leverage and then restrainedly withdrew it. In front of outsiders, it looked like he just happened to pass by, saw Chen Zan, and helped her up in a gentlemanly manner.
Bai Qi reminded: "Mr. Zhou, the car is waiting outside."
After Zhou Jingyu glanced at the stunned Chen Zan, a smile appeared in his eyes. He withdrew his gaze and walked out, acting the role of avoiding suspicion and unfamiliarity to the fullest.
Chen Zhan: “…”
Zhou Jingyu's back had disappeared at the entrance of the venue, and the students and teachers next to him were surprised and delighted.
"That was Mayor Zhou, right? He was incredibly handsome when he was speaking on stage earlier, and now he's even more handsome up close."
"No wonder he was voted the most handsome mayor for a reason."
"Chen Zhan, Zhou Zhaoxiang just helped you up. It seems he's not as cold and heartless as the rumors say. Don't you think so?"
Chen Zhan quickly suppressed his emotion and said in a serious tone, "Mr. Zhou is very gentlemanly."
"Didn't they say before that Mr. Zhou's car was often seen passing by the training center building, and that his girlfriend might be working inside? I wonder if that's true?"
"I've heard about that too. I heard that he's only been dating this one person for so long. Anyway, it's a hot topic in the industry."
"Then I'm really curious about what Mr. Zhou's girlfriend looks like."
“…”
Chen Zan had heard people talking about Zhou Jingyu in the building before, so she avoided suspicion by not letting him drive the well-known car to take her to the training center.
At that time, we were only discussing Zhou Jingyu himself. After so much time, I don’t know how it became related to his girlfriend.
Feeling somewhat guilty, she asked tentatively, "Where did you hear about this?"
Others didn't know where the rumor came from, but this was the version they heard.
At this moment, someone said, "Chen Zhan, if Mr. Zhou didn't already have a girlfriend, the two of you standing together right after waking up would look quite good together, like movie stars in the entertainment industry."
However, no one took this statement seriously. After all, Zhou Jingyu had just gently supported Chen Zan, and the two of them had not had much interaction since then.
It was not until later that Chen Zan joined the Translation Department. One time, someone saw Mayor Zhou's car parked outside the gate of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Chen Zan hurried out. His accompanying secretary came in person in the car. After she got in, she could vaguely see Zhou Jingyu giving her an extremely gentle kiss on the lips through the rear window.
Everyone suddenly realized that the rumored beloved girlfriend of Mr. Zhou was Chen Zan, a senior female translator in the Translation Department. She was the most hidden person among them all.
*
In Pei Yan's absence, Chen Zan was authorized to take over her job and got the opportunity to perform simultaneous interpretation, but opportunities also come with risks.
Based on Chen Zan's results and performance during the three months of training, if Pei Yan hadn't had any problems today, she would just need to cooperate with Pei Yan. Even if the final result was just average and there was nothing outstanding about it, Chen Zan would have a 90% chance of being admitted.
Unfortunately, Pei Yan was not feeling well today, so all the tasks fell on Chen Zan's head. This was both a test and an opportunity for her. If she completed the task excellently, she would be able to join the Translation Department. However, if she made any mistakes, she would never have another chance in her life, just like what Pei Yan said when she was carried into the ambulance.
Therefore, Chen Zan was even more alert in his subsequent activities.
