"Hey, freshman!"
Hey, it’s Chinese!
Li Nanxing was wandering around the campus aimlessly when someone suddenly called her.
In this foreign country campus full of foreign languages, Li Nanxing was a little dazed when he suddenly heard his hometown accent.
It’s a fellow villager!
The person who came was also an Asian boy. He was quite tall, but too thin. His face looked fleshless and his skin was a little sallow. He looked a little gloomy.
Uh, she doesn't look like an easy person to deal with, and she doesn't know what the other person wants to do by calling her.
"Um, were you calling me just now?" Li Nanxing asked tentatively.
The other party said impatiently: "Are there any other Chinese people here? Of course I'm calling you!"
Li Nanxing: ...I’m a little speechless!
"Okay! Then what did you call me for?" Li Nanxing asked in the same unpleasant tone.
Hearing this, the other party seemed to reluctantly put away his previous impatient expression and asked seriously, "New student, do you need a guide? This seems like your first time at Harvard, right? You probably don't know where the teaching buildings, dormitories, cafeteria, library, etc. are, right?"
Li Nanxing: ...Actually she knows!
After she entered Harvard campus, her [Map] instantly activated the map module of the entire Harvard campus.
The [map] in her system can not only be zoomed in and out, but also the names of various buildings can be seen. Whether it is a dormitory building, a teaching building or a cafeteria, she can find it very intuitively on her map.
The most important thing is that she can teleport!
No matter how far the distance is or how complicated the route is, it doesn’t matter.
It only takes her one second to reach her destination easily!
However, the other party was a complete stranger to him, so why would he be so kind as to lead the way for her, a schoolmate whom he didn't know?
But don't say that they are all compatriots, so the other party is here with good intentions to show her the way.
Just now, when Li Nanxing was harassed by the teacher at the freshman reception desk, this Asian boy was clearly there and must have heard the other party's discriminatory remarks against Asians.
At that time, the middle-aged white man bullied her, an Asian girl. It was such an obvious act of oppression, but he didn't say a word of justice!
Now he suddenly comes and says he wants to lead the way for her. It seems suspicious no matter how you think about it.
Just as Li Nanxing was about to decline, the other party suddenly seemed to have thought of something and said, "You know the rules in the United States, right?"
"Ah! Rules? What rules?" Li Nanxing was a little confused by the question.
No one told her that there were any rules she had to follow!
Seeing that Li Nanxing really didn't understand anything, the other party's face turned even uglier. "It's a tip! In the United States, no matter what kind of service you receive, you have to tip! Harvard University is no exception. Senior students who show the way to junior students also have to tip!"
Uh, after all this talk, it turns out it was all about tips!
No, with your impatient attitude, who would dare to ask you to lead the way?
It was then that Li Nanxing noticed that the old clothes the man was wearing were a bit frayed, his shoes were dirty and old, his face was sallow, and his hair was dry. Could this be due to malnutrition?
It turns out that the other person is a poor student!
Li Nanxing simply looked at the other party's message.
Zhang Siheng, 18, Chinese American, Harvard Business School, Department of Management, Class of 1976. His parents were divorced, and he earned his way into Harvard University through work-study programs.
Uh, the other person is actually one year younger than her!
He is 18 years old this year and a sophomore, which means he was admitted to university at the age of 17!
He must have skipped a grade!
It is quite impressive for a Chinese person to achieve such an achievement in the United States, a country with serious racial discrimination!
He was admitted to Harvard University by "working and studying, and being self-reliant", which means that his parents didn't care about him at all, and didn't even provide tuition and living expenses. This guy got into university on his own!
Forget it, since we are all Chinese compatriots, let him lead the way!
Leading the way is a piece of cake. Li Nanxing is new here and doesn't know a lot about the university. It would be a good idea to ask him!
Especially, find out the information about senior students in the school who have good academic performance and are suitable for poaching!
"Okay, I do need someone to help me lead the way. Thank you, senior, for helping me! How much is the tip?" Li Nanxing asked politely.
The other party seemed very satisfied with Li Nanxing's attitude, and his mood was much better than before. He replied: "Just $5! I will tell you everything you need to know!"
In Li Nanxing's opinion, although 5 US dollars for a guide was a bit expensive, she had a lot of questions in her mind. Besides, maybe she could get to know the other party through this opportunity, and she could ask him if she had any questions in the future. So she did not bargain and agreed at once.
But just 5 minutes later, Li Nanxing regretted it!
This guy named Zhang Siheng was not polite at all to the customers who paid him for services!
Damn!
