Chapter 1444: Stop Acting
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
âHuh?â
An Ning stared at him with her beautiful eyes.
1 asked you to act, but I didnât ask you to add more scenes!
He could just say that you were a rich second-generation heir and that your parents were both teachers. Arenât you exposing yourself by saying this?!
Lin Yiâs resume attracted the attention of the Nie family.
He was directly challenging them.
Nie Zhengyangâs mother, Fan Shulan, was a Sibanish teacher at Bingcheng University.
His father, Nie Zhongjun, was a Ruxian teacher at Longjiang University. Moreover, their English level was not bad. They were definitely intellectuals.
Lin Yi came from an international school and knew eight languages.
You can brag, but you canât get carried away!
âHeheâŠâ Nie Zhongjun sneered. âYou said you graduated from an international school? Iâd like to know which school you graduated from and what you majored in.â
An Ningâs heart skipped a beat. What she was afraid of really happened.
If Lin Yi said that he was worth tens of millions, that wouldnât be a problem because outsiders wouldnât look into this.
Coupled with Lin Yiâs temperament, he did look like a rich person.
However, if he said that he graduated from a famous school and knew eight languages, the other party would definitely not let go of this opportunity.
âUniversity of Penntania, computer science major.â
An open challenge to Peking Universityâs outstanding graduates!
âA computer student can actually speak eight languages?â Nie Zhongjun said.
âI assume you know a word or two in each language, and now youâre just bragging to everyone by claiming to speak eight languages?â
Seeing that the situation wasnât looking good, An Ning gently tugged on Lin Yiâs sleeve, signaling him not to fall into the trap.
Lin Yi gave her a knowing look.
An Ning heaved a sigh of relief. There was nothing to worry about.
Lin Yi was a smart person. He definitely wouldnât fall for it.
âWho said I only know one or two words?â Lin Yi said.
âIf thatâs what 1 meant, then 1 might as well say 1 can speak all the languages in the world.â
Huh?
An Ning almost vomited blood. 1 asked you to stop bragging, not continue!
Canât you see that itâs a trap?
âYoung man, I can see through it. Youâre here to play a role for Ningning. 1â11 give you some face, but donât talk big here. Itâs quite boring. Go on.â Nie Zhongjun waved his hand impatiently, not even giving Lin Yi a proper look.
âIs there something wrong with your family? Iâve already explained everything to you, but you still keep saying that Iâm acting? Are your ears filled with sh*t?â
âAlright, since youâre not acting, let me test you to see how good you are at these eight languages.â
Nie Zhongjun looked around and saw a sign on the wall. The title was a letter to the patient.
Every hospital had this sign in the wards. The contents were almost always the same.
âHow about this? Didnât you say that you know eight languages? Use the eight languages to read the âLetter to the Patientâ on the wall.â
âWellâŠâ
An Ningâs face fell. He only knows English at most, how could he possibly translate it into eight languages?
âUncle Nie, 1 donât think itâs necessary,â An Ning said.
âItâs impossible for Zhengyang and I to remain together. I hope you wonât harp on it.â
âI know that thereâs a conflict between the two of you, but youâve been together for so long and know each other well. You canât split over such a small matter. Besides, weâre already here. You have to give Uncle Nie some face, donât you think?â
âThatâs no problem, butâŠâ
âAlright, letâs talk about this later. Let this young man translate it first.â
Nie Zhongjun had been dealing with students all these years, so he could tell at a glance that Lin Yi was bragging.
It was already very impressive that he had such superb medical skills.
To claim that he could speak eight different languages was a joke.
âThatâs so embarrassing. Itâll just it look like Iâm showing off.â
âThereâs nothing to be embarrassed about. If you have the ability, you have to show it,â Nie Zhongjun said.
âAnd just now, when you said that you graduated from an international school and know eight languages, it didnât seem like you were planning to keep a low profile then.â
âAlright, Iâll try.â
With that, Lin Yi turned around and looked at the sign hanging on the wall.
âDear patient, helloâŠâ
âHey, hey, hey, what are you saying?â Nie Zhongjun interrupted.
âI told you to speak in the eight languages. Why are you speaking in Huaxian? Youâre just playing to the gallery.â
This was within An Ningâs expectations.
Lin Yi only knew one foreign language at most. He might even be a bad student, so how could he translate the sign?
An Ning suddenly thought of something and looked at her mother.
Since she didnât have the strength to speak, her mother had to step in.
She knew her daughter the best.
With just one look from An Ning, Liu Guiqin understood what she meant.
âBrother Zhongjun, letâs forget about this. Letâs not pursue the matter. Let the children solve their own problems.â
âSister-in-law, what you said makes sense, but 1 watched Ningning grow up, so we canât let todayâs matter go so easily. What if heâs a liar? Itâs not wrong to be careful.â
âButâŠâ
âThereâs no buts. He said that he knows the eight languages. 1 didnât want to make things difficult for him. I just wanted to test his claim on a whim since I have nothing to do anyway.â
With that, Nie Zhongjun looked at Lin Yi. âAlright, stop wasting time. If you donât know how to do it, just admit it and leave. Donât waste everyoneâs time.â
âHeâs so impatient. One look and 1 can tell that heâs not someone who can achieve great things.â
âThen you may begin. In all my years, I have never met a man who is fluent in eight languages. Start your performance and broaden my horizons.â
âAlright, Iâll try.â
Seeing that Lin Yi really wanted to give it a try, An Ning hurriedly pulled him aside.
âStop fooling around. Heâs clearly setting a trap for you. Why are you still rushing headfirst into it?â
âItâs not illegal to try.â Lin Yi said.
âAfter all, Iâm someone whoâs seen all kinds of small movies from all over the world. Iâve learned a lot of foreign languages from them, so 1 can at least do this much.â
âWhat time is it now? Stop bullshitting me.â An Ning was so angry that smoke was rising from her ears.
How could such a shrewd person not see that this was a trap?
A wise man was about to make a fool of himself.
âItâs not bullsh*t!â
âYouâre really claiming that youâre not spouting nonsense? How could you possibly know the eight languages?â
âIâm not talking nonsense. Iâve seen movies from all over the world.â Lin Yi said, âI have many foreign resources. Iâll give you some later.â
An Ning felt a headache coming on. She was about to die from anger.
Now was not the time to discuss these indie movies!
âNingning, what are you two talking about? Let him try. Uncle Nie really wants to broaden his horizons.â
Since Nie Zhongjun was being overbearing, An Ning had no choice but to stop arguing with Lin Yi.
Lin Yi looked at the sign on the wall and said in perfect English,
âDear patient, helloâŠâ
