"Chuyi, eating bread, hamburgers, potatoes, corn, green peas every day... my mouth is about to feel like a bird's from blandness!" In less than two weeks, Chen Miao began to complain.
Xia Chuyi shook her head upon hearing this and said, "Who did you learn that phrase from?"
"From those guys, of course..." Chen Miao replied, "In this foreign land, the most familiar Chinese I remember now is just food and swear words."
Xia Chuyi almost couldn't contain her laughter.
Thinking for a moment, she said to Chen Miao, "If you really want to eat Chinese food, we can actually go to Chinatown."
"Chinatown?" Chen Miao responded, "Chuyi, how come you seem so much more familiar with NY than us, though we all came here together?"
Xia Chuyi chuckled and said, "Maybe because I'm from the Foreign Languages department, I've had more exposure in the past."
Chen Miao didn't doubt her at all and said, "Then let's go to Chinatown!"
