1693: The Enemy of the Enemy Is the Friend (3 More)
"Mrs. Wilson?"
Mrs. Wilson smiled.
She is not Lisa, she can see that this father and daughter are not simply passing by.
After chasing it out, I happened to hear Mond's words to teach his daughter.
What "defeat" and "humiliation", when these words are put together, they don't mean anything good! Mrs. Wilson had a hunch that she had found like-minded friends.
In order to show her sincerity, she took the initiative to mention her disgust for Xia Xiaolan:
"... Anyway, that's what happened."
In Mrs. Wilson's account, Xia Xiaolan was a hateful, ruthless and unrighteous Chinese student who failed Mrs. Wilson's good intentions.
Mrs. Wilson's hatred, Mond heard, was not false.
However, if it was said that Xia Xiaolan was able to accept the commission of the renovation of the theater relying on Mrs. Wilson's appreciation, Mond didn't quite believe it.
&np's Lisa doesn't look like a newcomer, but after listening to her commentary, Mond knew that Lisa couldn't easily make such a plan. However, Xia Xiaolan can, so Mond will look at Xia Xiaolan as an "architect".
Mrs. Wilson, the employer, did not suffer from the decoration plan designed by Xia Xiaolan for the theater.
Mrs. Wilson gave Xia Xiaolan the opportunity, and Xia Xiaolan did not waste this opportunity and handed over a worthwhile answer.
At this moment Mrs. Wilson complained again, but it was out of personal grudge!
Heidi was fascinated, but Mond was not so fooled: "Madam, you may have misunderstood. I just want to use the excellence of my peers to inspire my daughter. Who you have grudges against, it has nothing to do with me."
Mrs. Wilson smiled, "That may be my misunderstanding, but if Mr. Mond changes his mind, he can contact me at any time."
As a courtesy, Mond accepted the card given by Mrs. Wilson.
Of course Mond didn't like Xia Xiaolan and Ning Xue.
But let him, a Pritzker Architecture Prize winner, personally embarrass an ungraduated undergraduate architecture student, and Mond won't be downgraded to such a level.
Xia Xiaolan and Ning Xue have the strength, it depends on who they are compared with.
Better than Heidi, is it better than an architect like him who has been famous for many years?
The Pritzker Architecture Prize is not given out casually.
Mrs. Wilson firmly believed that Mond would find her, especially when she asked Lisa about Mond's identity, Mrs. Wilson was even more satisfied.
...
"Ahh~"
Xia Xiaolan rubbed her nose.
"Have you caught a cold? The weather has started to get cold, remember to put on more clothes!"
Hu Ying instructed Xia Xiaolan like this, Xia Xiaolan readily agreed: "If there is a call for me—"
"I see, I have a call for you, I must tell you, right? You are waiting for your boyfriend's call!"
Hu Ying was joking.
Xia Xiaolan did not deny it either.
Of course, she was waiting for Zhou Cheng's call. She and Zhou Cheng had been in touch once every two or three days for a long time, and Xia Xiaolan had formed a habit. The day before Xia Xiaolan returned to the United States, Zhou Cheng was called away by several soldiers in civilian clothes, saying that he had a temporary assignment. The military orders are like mountains, and Xia Xiaolan has nothing to stop.
The only thing Xia Xiaolan worried about was whether Zhou Cheng's "mission" would be very troublesome.
It was another highly confidential mission, and as soon as Zhou Cheng left, he lost contact again. The time since the loss of contact this time was not particularly long, and Xia Xiaolan had just returned to the United States for a few days.
But if Zhou Cheng continues to have no news, Xia Xiaolan will inevitably worry about his safety.
Xia Xiaolan kept this matter in mind, but she went out to the post office to do another matter. She called and asked Wen Manni, only to know that Eric was a very good lawyer. After discussing with Wen Manni, she decided to send Eric a post. a check.
Speaking of remuneration, Eric will definitely not receive it.
Xia Xiaolan wrote on the paper, "Lawyer Eric, you are fighting for equal rights. This is also my little thought to support your behavior. I hope it can help some people who are in an unequal situation."
Xia Xiaolan did not inform Ning Xue that she sent Eric a check for $5,000.
This is not to show that she is rich. Eric said that she must give legal aid.
Xia Xiaolan has inquired about Eric's word of mouth, and Wen Manni can confirm that the other party is really the same person on the outside, and what he has done over the years is in line with what he preaches.
Xia Xiaolan is not the first Chinese student Eric Legal has assisted.
Of course, most of the students who need Eric's help really can't pay the lawyer's fees, but Xia Xiaolan doesn't mind paying a little more.
She herself is quite a narrow-minded nationalist. She has to ensure her own life first, and then the lives of the people close to her. If she has spare capacity, she can pull the elders and villagers, and then she has more spare capacity to help those she doesn’t know. Chinese.
She is still unable to care for Chinese people. According to Xia Xiaolan's character, she will not come to the United States to show love.
The fact that Ken offered the $5,000 was also touched by Mrs. Dawson's affairs... She was an international student who was rich and knew a lawyer, so she could defeat Mrs. Dawson quickly and ruthlessly.
However, most Chinese students are not as rich as she is.
If there are more people like Eric, will the status quo of Chinese students being bullied and discriminated against in the United States be reduced?
It's the same sentence, it's impossible for President Xia to empty his family and do good deeds.
But within the scope of her ability, she is still very happy to do this because of empathy and a little love.
After sending the check, Xia Xiaolan went to class. She didn't need to worry about the party at all. There were many people helping to prepare it, and Xia Xiaolan didn't even need to pay for it. The venue was provided by the school, and the food and drinks had to be purchased by herself. The money would be paid by her and Ning. Snow shared.
The party is tentatively scheduled for Saturday, and there are still 3 days left.
When Xia Xiaolan came home in the evening, Hu Ying told her that there was a call: "One of them is from China."
To Xia Xiaolan's disappointment, there were two calls from Huaguo, but neither was from Zhou Cheng.
One is Du Zhaohui's message, telling her that Xu Changle took Tina to leave Hong Kong and return to the United States, and Du Zhaohui told her to stay away from the Xu family.
The other is Ye Xiaoqiong.
Ye Xiaoqiong called from Pengcheng and apologized to Xia Xiaolan for the previous missed appointment, saying that Du Zhaoji's investment in Pengcheng had an accident, and it seemed that the funds had not been implemented.
"Then you want to hitch a ride on the revenge plan, do you still want to implement it?"
Ye Xiaoqiong couldn't hide the hatred in Ye Xiaoqiong's voice on the phone, "Of course, I never gave up."
"Okay, I see, Yuan Han will be transferred to Pengcheng soon, Ye Xiaoqiong, I wish you success."
Xia Xiaolan was neat and tidy, the other half of the phone, Ye Xiaoqiong paused:
"……thanks."
Xia Xiaolan hung up and was very puzzled.
"Strange, Ye Xiaoqiong doesn't need to lie. No matter what Du Zhaoji had planned before, it should be true that he wants to invest in Pengcheng."
Du Ershao is very rich, and the one-time price increase of 1 million US dollars to buy a production line, but now the investment funds cannot be realized.
There is probably only one possibility... Du Zhaohui blocked Du Ershao?
