The kid grabbed her sleeves anxiously, his eyes filled with anxiety, and he kept shaking his head.
Suddenly, as if he remembered something, he flattened one palm and made a gesture of holding a pen with the other hand, making writing strokes on the palm.
Cheng Liuli understood now that he wanted to communicate with her using pen and paper.
Cheng Liuli tore off a piece of paper from the note pad, took a pen, looked at the boy's appearance, and remembered that he was so proficient with chopsticks, he should understand a little bit of Chinese, right?
Write a few simple words in Chinese on a piece of paper, "Your behavior makes me very disappointed."
Pushing it to the boy, the boy looked at the note and looked dumbfounded.
Cheng Liuli switched between English, German and French. The boy's beautiful eyebrows furrowed tightly. After thinking about it, he took the pen and paper in Cheng Liuli's hand and wrote something skillfully on the note.
The handwriting looked very elegant, and he must be a good calligrapher, but in Cheng Liuli's eyes, it was no different from a ghost drawing. She was holding a note paper in her hand, and she could only vaguely recognize that it was Thai, but she had no idea what was written.
.
After thinking for a while, Cheng Liuli tore off the note paper, walked out of the door, and waved to Bi'er who was waiting outside the door, "Bi'er, do you understand Thai?"
Bi'er nodded and said a little shyly, "I only went to the fifth grade of elementary school, so I don't know much."
Cheng Liuli was about to hand over the note, but she didn't expect the kid standing next to him to move quickly. He reached out and took the note away from her hand, and stuffed it into his mouth three times!
Cheng Liuli was almost mad at him and waved Bi'er away.
He rushed to the little ghost and said, "My dear, what's wrong with you? We don't know each other's language and can't communicate. Can't we just find someone who understands both Chinese and Thai to be a translator? Why do you want to use the paper?
Swallowed the note into your mouth? Even if you take a step back and say that you don’t want others to see your note, just tear it up. Why should you swallow it in your mouth? There are so many bacteria on it. What should I do if I have diarrhea..."
While Cheng Liuli was talking nonchalantly, he helplessly held the kid's hand, took out the chewed-up note from his mouth, and threw it into the trash can.
He didn't understand the language she understood, and she didn't understand the language he understood either.
Although he came into contact with many people from country T during this period, Cheng Liuli only learned a few commonly used spoken words. He was illiterate in the equally profound Thai language and could not read a single big character.
Looking at the kid in front of me, I always felt that he had a lot to say to her, but the two people who couldn't speak the same language could only act like two sullen gourds, unable to pour out all the words.
Suddenly, a flash of lightning flashed through Cheng Liuli's mind, bingo! Can you use the Internet?
She seemed to remember that Google had a literal translation function that could translate dozens of languages around the world, but she couldn't remember whether it included Thai.
She quickly opened the laptop in her room and connected to the Internet. The web pages that popped up were all in Thai.
It's not like she never turned on this computer when she was bored, but she couldn't read a word of Thai on it, and it was extremely slow to open a Chinese web page. The system often crashed halfway through opening it, so she had lived here for so long.
She has basically never used this laptop.
Now, she opened the Thai version of Google based on Google's unique logo, and then clicked on the translated page.
