小沙叹口气,展开手中的传真件,只见纸上是一张模特脸,英俊地完全可以去拍Gucci香水的男士广告,她看着上面的航班,对了下时间,马上飞奔进候机大厅。 小沙睁大眼睛瞪着从接机口鱼贯而出的每一张陌生面孔,突然肩膀被人拍了一下,“Hi, are you the one who’s picking me up?”(嗨,你是要接我的吗?) 小沙回头一看,果然是传真上的那张模特脸,她不好意思地笑笑,“Yes, Assistant Jian. How are you? I am Mo Xiaosha. Mrs. has an emergency meeting. She asked me to pick you up.”(江先生,您好!我是莫小沙,因部长突有急事,临时派我来接你。) 江诺微笑,“I’ve been waiting for a while. No one shows up. And then I see you have a fax in your hand and guess you are one.”(我等半天了,不见人来,后来看到你手上拿着传真件就过来问,果然是。) 小沙连忙道歉,“Sorry, I am late. The traffic is busy.”(对不起,路上不太顺,有些耽误了。) “It’s ok.”(没关系。) 小沙一路将他引到停车场,看着梦晴那辆白色的丰田,她眼睛亮了下,突然间有了解决的方法,“Mr. Jiang, Do you how to drive a car?”(不好意思,请问您会开车吗?) “Drive? Of course I know.”(开车?当然会。) 小沙马上笑眯眯地,“Mr.Jiang. Is it ok with you that you drive this car and I give you the directions?”(江先生,可不可以我指路,请您亲自来开车?) 哪知江诺把头一摇,“Oh…no. In England we drive on the left. All traffic rules are completely different from China. I’ll have accidents if I’m driving here.”(不行,英国是靠左通行,交通规则跟中国是全部相反的,我在这里开车是会出事的。) 小沙无比的丧气,做着最后的努力,“Well…I just got my driving license and I am totally new on this.”(可是,我刚刚拿到驾照,还是新手……) “That you have a license means you can drive. Don’t be nervous, everyone has his first time.”(有驾照就说明能驾驶,不用太紧张,人人都会有第一次的!) 晕,又来了!这家伙说得更有歧义!超级郁闷呀! 小沙见江诺自顾自地打开后门将行李放进去,接着他自己也随着坐进车里,只得认命地坐进驾驶室,脑子里拼命复习着驾校里老师教的操作流程,先系上安全带,然后发动引擎,慢慢加油,将车子缓缓驶出停车场。 江诺已经看出了她的不熟练,坐在后座上系上安全带,不放心似的又补充了一句,“Hi, Ms. Mo. Be slowly please.”(嗨,莫小姐,慢慢开呀。) “OK.”小沙点头答应着,心里在想,慢你个头呀,出了机场就是绕城高速,最低时速不得低于60,让你开你又不肯!出了事也是活该你倒霉! 小沙精神高度紧张,手心里全是汗水,她紧紧地握着方向盘,密切注意着前后车距,大脑的其他工作都瘫痪了,全部身心都放在了开车这个行为上,一路小心加小心,总算是安全到了酒店,下了车子,舒出一口气,才觉后背上的衣服都被冷汗湿透了。 “See,you drive very well.”(这不是开得很好嘛!)江诺笑眯眯地表扬她,道谢告别,然后进了酒店。 小沙看着他的背景,恨得牙根痒痒,只想拿车钥匙砸他。
