C10 (1/2)

Sensing that she had been rude, Yanqi hurriedly replied with a smile, ”No worries!”

After the two of them sat down, the waiter came over and asked, ”What would you like to order?”

The student took the menu and looked at it. He turned it over twice and then handed it back, saying, ”Let's talk about the matter first. We'll call you if you want some!”

The waiter was stunned and left with a polite smile.

The student immediately turned to Yanqi and smiled, ”I was stuck in a traffic jam when I arrived. I drank quite a bit of water in the car. I'm not thirsty now. Miss Su also has some coffee, so I don't want to order.”

Yanqi smiled and nodded her head to show that she understood.

”Besides, most of the coffee here isn't authentic, so it can't even be compared to those overseas. I'm already used to drinking it overseas, so I'm not used to it at all!” The man continued in a casual tone.

Yanqi maintained her smile and lowered her head to drink her coffee. It wasn't that she didn't respond, she really didn't know how to answer such a question.

The student opposite her became pleased with himself again, and started to talk about the characteristics of the coffee. He talked for almost 10 minutes, and when he saw that Yanqi didn't have any reaction, he suddenly glared at her and said, ”Oh!” ”I was so happy that I forgot my business. I haven't even introduced myself, my Chinese name is Shao Wenhui, my English name is Beau, my friends and I call each other by English. What is Miss Su's English name?”

Yanqi put down her cup and laughed softly. Her tone carried a hint of estrangement, ”I don't have an English name. You can just call me Miss Su!”

”What!” The student looked surprised, ”Miss Su has been studying in the United States for four years and yet she doesn't have an English name?”

If it weren't for the 2016 billboards on the street outside the window, Yanqi would have thought that she had traveled back to ten years ago. She couldn't have guessed what kind of person's inner world was to have such a sense of superiority because they had an English name.

Suppressing the heavy irritation that welled up in her chest, Yanqi politely replied, ”Indeed not!”

Mr. Beau, the top student, was still incredulous, but he didn't continue to ask, and instead placed his hands on the table, clasped his fingers, and smiled like a lecturer. ”I don't know how Miss Su is, but there are so many places I'm not used to just having to go back to China, especially the traffic, which makes me crumble. If it wasn't for that, how could I have done such a rude thing late, as Washington wouldn't have done this, everyone follows the traffic rules, and the roads are wide and clean. ”Especially near our school, which is Columbia University. It's even more so.”

”Mr. Beau, I'm sorry, but I still have some matters to attend to at noon, so I won't be accompanying you!” Yanqi interrupted him, stood up and said that, then picked up her bag and left her seat.

”Miss Su, Miss Su!”

The tall student shouted as he chased after them, causing everyone in the coffee shop to cast sidelong glances at him.

Outside the door, Yanqi was stopped by a tug, and the top student stepped in front of her, ”Why are you leaving so soon? I was just about to invite Miss Su out for a meal. Look, my team's Western Dining Voucher has already been bought!”

”I'm really sorry. I have something to take care of at home, so I won't be eating with Mr. Beau!” Yanqi could no longer maintain her smile.

”You have to eat even if you have to do something, don't you? ”Look, I've already bought the vouchers. If you don't eat them, you'll be wasting it!”

”How much is it? I'll pay you now. Sorry, I really don't have time! ” Yanqi said as she took out her wallet.
