Next day, Akarsha and Noelle come to GongGuan to meet Noelle’s cousin, Chun-hua.
“Hi, long time no see!” Chun-hua warmly welcomes them.
“Hi, long time no see, Chun-hua,” Noelle happily greets her with a big smile, “春花,你可以跟我說中文,我中文進步了。”
“真的嗎? 好久不見,樂映姐!“ Chun-hua surprisingly changes to speak in Mandarin, “妳中文進步很多呢,變得流暢很多!“
“那當然,我這幾年可是練習很多中文!” Noelle shows off her Mandarin speaking with a proud expression making Chun-hua smiles.
“那旁邊這位是…?” Chun-hua curiously asks.
“Akarsha, 我的老婆.” Noelle introduces Akarsha with a slightly blush on her face. “這次跟我一起回台灣.”
Chun-hua shows a hint of surprise but immediately transitions into welcoming them. “喔!!!恭喜!我該怎麼稱呼? 姐夫好? 姐妻好? ”
Noelle thinks for a moment and says, “我想妳可以直接稱呼她的名字就好.”
“What are you guys talking about?” Akarsha asks.
“I introduced that you are my wife, and Chun-hua asked how to call you. I think she can just directly call your name. ” Noelle replies.
“Oh, yes, you can call me Akarsha, or call me a GENIUS or EINSTEIN is also fine.” Akarsha flashes a playful smile.
“NO. Chun-hua, just call her Akarsha please.” Noelle immediately counters to Akarsha’s proposal.
“Okay. Nice to meet you, Akarsha!” Chun-hua giggles and greets Akarsha, “Welcome to Taiwan.”
“Thank you, Chun-hua, nice to meet you too!” Akarsha replies with a friendly smile.
“I think we should chat in English today, or Akarsha cannot know what we are talking about.” Chun-hua proposes.
