The culture of the United States is different from that of China, most of the time, asking you if you are free at night means going out to chat and talk about something, but in the United States, this often represents a request for a date, and even for single men and women, most of the time it is a sexual innuendo.

Tang Shuai was obviously a little caught off guard, was it because of the look in his eyes at the press conference just now?

It shouldn't be that much of an appeal...... Right?

He pretended to be calm and said, "You have something to do with me?" ”

"It's nothing, I just want to have you a coffee and have a chat." Christina said with a smile, her performance was much more natural than Tang Shuai, after all, she was born and raised in the United States, and she received an American-style cultural education.

Tang Shuai glanced at Christina, in fact, she is a beauty, with a taste of American professional white-collar workers in her bones, which is indeed very attractive, and the last time he was in Milwaukee, Smith told him that sex in the United States is just a part of life, and if he wants to fit in, he must learn to accept these, just like Stephenson and Smith's invitation just now, this is the same as a domestic dinner party, if you don't go, you don't give face.

However, although he understands the truth, it is in strong contrast to the education he received since childhood, the conflict between the two cultures needs a time zone of relaxation, and he is obviously not completely over it, and is just ready to refuse tactfully.

"That, I'm sorry, I was afraid that you would leave just now, so I kept waiting outside, and I didn't have time to change my clothes, I didn't mean to, I know it's not appropriate to dress like this." Christina thought that Tang Shuai thought that he was dressed inappropriately, and hurriedly explained.

Tang Shuai was obviously stunned for a moment. When the words came to his lips, Christina was afraid that he would leave. Waiting for him outside the door after the press conference?

The reporters in the locker room didn't ask him a lot of questions, and it should have been more than half an hour. This Christina has waited so long?

He hesitated for a moment, then said, "Okay, I'll take a shower first, you wait for me." ”

Seeing that Tang Shuai agreed, Christina showed an excited look on her face, and said with a smile: "I'm just going to change my clothes, and we'll meet here later." ”

Tang Shuai nodded, he agreed first, it's a big deal to finish the coffee. It's good to say that there is something to do temporarily and then leave.

When Tang Shuai came out wrapped in a bath towel after taking a shower, he raised his eyes and saw Christina, who had already changed his clothes and was waiting in the dressing room.

A white shirt with light-colored jeans, a khaki trench coat over it, and white high heels with thin heels, although the professional outfit has been replaced, this style seems to be still there.

Tang Shuai was naked when he came out, and Christina looked at him with a strange look.

Being looked at so nakedly by a woman, Tang Shuai was obviously a little uncomfortable. He coughed dryly twice, then said, "That, Helen, I want to change my clothes." Do you want to avoid it first? ”

"Well, you're in great shape." Christina said, turning around.

Tang Shuai's face was slightly red, and Christina's eyes were not as provocative as Ranadave before when she said this. Maybe it's just a compliment, but that's a cultural difference. He couldn't get used to it all of a sudden.

When he was dressed, he took his bag. Then he said, "Okay, have you decided which café to go to?" ”

"I've already booked it, the romantic coffee house near here, what do you think, if it's not suitable, you can book it again." Christina said with a smile as she got up.

"Yes." Tang Shuai nodded, since Christina had chosen, he just had a coffee anyway, and he didn't have any other ideas, no matter where he was, it was almost the same anyway.

"Then let's go." Christina looked pleased, and walked out.

Tang Shuai scratched his head, and then followed.

The romantic café is not far from the center of Toyota, and the two people walked straight to it.

Christina is worthy of being a reporter, and she talked about this and that all the way, although it was only the first time she was alone with each other, but she felt like a friend she hadn't seen for a long time.

Tang Shuai walked forward, and noticed that there were many more people walking on the street than usual, and the appearance of people coming and going felt particularly lively.

The population density of the United States is much smaller than that of China, and even in a metropolis like Houston, it is difficult to see such a scene on the street, and he can't help but show a trace of doubt in his eyes.

Christina is a reporter, and she is still very good at observing words and feelings, and then said: "Christmas is coming soon, everyone has been preparing since Thanksgiving, and it is good to prepare for so long, there will always be a lack of this and that." ”

After listening to what Christina said, Tang Shuai realized that Christmas was coming soon, some time ago because of the transaction, he didn't pay much attention to off-the-counter things, but he didn't expect that time was like flowing water, and he had been in the United States for almost half a year.

Christmas, in the United States, is the same as the Chinese New Year, family reunions, visits to relatives and friends, and when Christmas is over, the new year begins.

Although the regions are different, the time is different, and even the differences in customs are different, there are still many things in common, such as buying New Year's goods before the year, and people who are away from home will also return to their parents, etc.

"I know that your Chinese New Year is about the same as ours, and I know that there is a Chinatown in Los Angeles, and you will have two Chinese New Year's Eve by then." Christina said with a smile.

Tang Shuai smiled and nodded, but there was something not so good in his heart, although the taste of the New Year in China is getting weaker and weaker, and going home for the New Year is just playing cards and playing games, but he is really out of that kind of day, he is in a foreign land during the New Year, and he will not even have a relative by his side, I really don't know what it will be like when the time comes.

"Don, can I invite you over for Christmas?" At this moment, Christina suddenly said coldly.

"Huh?" Tang Shuai didn't react for a moment, stopped and looked at Christina in a daze, "You invited me to spend Christmas together?" ”

Christina nodded and said with a smile: "I know that foreigners spend Christmas mostly alone, if you don't mind. ”

Tang Shuai thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "I'm not alone, so ......"

"It's okay, it's still early anyway, I'll tell you the story of Christmas, maybe you'll be a little interested." Christina's reaction was quick and she skipped the topic directly.

Christmas in the United States is completely different from Christmas in China, it originates from Christ's Mass Night, which involves a lot of religious things, and is mixed with modern festivals, mixed with nature There are a lot of interesting anecdotes.

"This is it." Waiting in front of a European-style coffee house, Christina said with a smile.
