Chapter 1479: Chapter 1479: Movie Date 4
Feng Qingxue raised her head, looking bewilderedly at the foreign girl in front of her.
Fair skin, a high nose bridge, blue eyes, blonde hair, tall stature, dressed in a bright red cotton padded jacket and a pair of black leather boots, with a camera hanging on her chest that was very advanced and lightweight compared to domestic ones.
She didn’t recognize her, had never seen her before.
"Hello, who are you?" Feng Qingxue heard her greeting in French and stood up to respond fluently in French as well.
Hearing the familiar language, the other party excitedly said, "My name is Christine, my father is Belna, he came to China many years ago, I’ve seen you in the photos he brought home, you are the mother of my father’s good friend Xibao! No no no, you are more beautiful than in the photos, it’s been so many years, no changes, I recognized you immediately."
Feng Qingxue hugged her briefly, "Hello, Christine, I’m really happy to see you, how is Belna doing?"
A few years after she followed the army with Xibao, Belna returned to his country around ’66 when the movements were vigorous, as the embassy got involved, making him feel very insecure.
"Very well, he’s doing fine, they set off for a trip when I left," Christine held her camera in both hands, the few freckles on her nose dancing in the light, "Before I came, my dad told me to find you and I brought many gifts for you and Xibao, he gave me the address. I asked many people, searched for a long time, finally found the place, but when I found the address and knocked, an old grandpa opened the door, he couldn’t understand what I was saying, it was like a duck talking to a chicken."
Isn’t it like talking to a duck?
Feng Qingxue smiled slightly, inviting her to dine together, and gestured for the waiter to bring the menu for her to order.
"Cream mushroom soup, foie gras, steak! And don’t forget my wine!" Christine was clearly familiar with Old Moss Restaurant, briskly ordering her favorite dishes.
A foreigner dining with her came over, "Christine, what are you doing? Leaving us behind."
Christine waved at him, "Edward, I’ve found the person I was looking for, you guys eat your meal, I will dine with Xibao’s mom, don’t come to interrupt us."
"Alright!" The young man glanced at Lu Jiang and Feng Qingxue, shrugged his shoulders and returned to his original seat.
Christine explained to Feng Qingxue, "My companion, his name is Edward, his father works in your country’s embassy in our country, we came in a group to join his father, I want to see the Great Wall that my dad talked about, I want to be a hero! I was planning if I couldn’t find you and Xibao, I would ask Edward’s father for help, he knows many officials, he definitely could have found you. Fortunately, I’ve met you now, I’m very grateful for today’s outing, this is called destiny brings people together over thousands of miles."
"I’m also very happy to meet you, Christine, hearing news from your father, our whole family is delighted, especially my son, who is the Xibao you mentioned," Feng Qingxue said while pointing at Lu Jiang, "This is my lover Lu Jiang, Xibao’s father, he is a soldier."
Lu Jiang nodded at Christine, "Hello."
It was also in French, but a bit stiff, after all, he didn’t have as much time to learn various foreign languages, only knew a bit of everyday language, and now he was most proficient in English, still only because Feng Qingxue insisted he must learn it.
