Lu Wei and Gu Chen went to play ball with Mr. Meyer, while Ye Ruan and Xiao Taozi naturally headed towards the picnic table where Mrs. Meyer and Xu Rui were.
Before Ye Ruan and Xiao Taozi could even greet Mrs. Meyer, Xu Rui had already stood up lively, taken Ye Ruan's hand, and brought her face close to Ye Ruan's, asking Mrs. Meyer with a radiant smile, "Madam, do you think Ruan Ruan and I look alike?"
"Wow—" the Meyer couple exclaimed, speaking in perfect Mandarin, "You look so alike! Are you sisters?"
Ye Ruan calmly pulled her arm out of Xu Rui's grasp.
Xu Rui covered her mouth and smiled sweetly, "No, Ruan Ruan and I only met yesterday, but we hit it off really well, just like you and I hit it off."
As soon as Xu Rui finished speaking, a blond, blue-eyed young man walked up from behind Mrs. Meyer. "Ruan Ruan? You're Su Ruan Ruan?"
Ye Ruan replied calmly, "No, my name is Ye Ruan, it's nice to meet you."
"I was too excited just now. I suppose you're not her either. I heard she's been missing for many years and may no longer be alive." The man was clearly disappointed, but he nodded politely to Ye Ruan and said, "Hello, I'm Bernie."
After introducing himself, the man walked over to Mrs. Meyer, gave her a cheek kiss, and then said, "Mommy."
Mrs. Meyer’s already kind face softened even more with Bernie’s arrival.
Bernie sat down next to Mrs. Meyer. This time, he didn't speak to Ye Ruan, but looked at Xiao Taozi beside him. "Miss Tao, I heard that you, Mr. Lu, and Mr. Gu are childhood friends. You must know Su Ruanruan, right?"
Xiao Taozi's gaze seemed to sweep over Ye Ruan almost imperceptibly, then she nodded and said, "I know her. Are you friends with Ruan Ruan?"
Bernie laughed and said, "We're not exactly friends. I participated in the same Youth Science Competition with her. She's an excellent opponent and a remarkable genius."
But I actually know another, even more remarkable girl, who is also Chinese.
I promised myself I would definitely come to China to find her; she and Ruan Ruan are friends.
"I don't know what the name of the girl you're talking about is, but I might know her," Little Peach said casually and politely.
Bernie became somewhat excited upon hearing this, "Her name is Chen Danqing, Miss Tao, do you know her?"
Little Peach: ...
She was just being polite, but she didn't expect Bernie to take it seriously, and she was even more surprised that she actually knew the person he mentioned.
It seems that when communicating with foreign friends, it's best to avoid using the traditional Chinese greetings.
Little Peach was unsure whether she should tell Bernie that she knew Chen Danqing.
Since Ruan Ruan's incident, Chen Danqing has kept a low profile, not participating in any public activities, and even her information and whereabouts are now kept secret.
Little Peach didn't say anything, but Xu Rui excitedly said, "Brother Bernie, since Chen Danqing is Su Ruanruan's friend, then Brother Gu Chen must know her. Brother Gu Chen and Su Ruanruan are best friends."
As she spoke, she stood up and waved to Gu Chen and his three friends who were playing ball over there, saying, "Brother Gu Chen, Brother Gu Chen..."
The girl's sweet, clear voice carried far across the wide lawn.
Little Peach winked at Ye Ruan, but saw Ye Ruan sitting upright with a polite smile on her face, seemingly not caring at all.
Gu Chen heard Xu Rui's shout, but didn't even flinch. He held the golf club in his hand, hit the golf ball at his feet, and sank it in one shot.
Xu Hongbo immediately clapped and cheered, then said, "My sister seems to be calling us over there. Why don't we all go over and rest for a bit, have some water, and chat?"
Mr. Meyer agreed, saying, "Mr. Xu's suggestion is good. I'm getting old, and I can't keep up with the physical strength of you young people."
Mr. Meyer is nearly fifty years old, but he is well-maintained. He has a great physique and no wrinkles on his face, and looks like he is in his thirties or under forty.
Because Mrs. Meyer is a China enthusiast, Mr. Meyer and his family all speak fluent Mandarin and have no difficulty communicating with others without a translator.
Xu Hongbo immediately said, "There is an old Chinese saying that a man's charm comes from the accumulation of years. Mr. Meyer, you are at the age when a man is most charming. We can only envy you."
Upon hearing this, Mr. Meyer laughed heartily and said, "Haha, Mr. Xu, you really know how to talk."
Gu Chen, Lu Wei, Xu Hongbo, and Mr. Meyer walked to the picnic table together. Bernie immediately looked at Gu Chen and asked, "Mr. Gu, I heard that you were Su Ruanruan's best friend before she died. Do you know another friend of Su Ruanruan?"
Her name is Chen Danqing!
