Snowy was actually a little nervous when she came to the aquarium by herself since she was in an unfamiliar foreign country, and she had never traveled alone before this. Although that wasnât true this time around, at least she left the country alone and relied on her broken English. Though, it was often necessary for her to make awkward gestures so that the other party can understand what they mean.
From the beginning of the live broadcast where she stammered a lot when talking, she appeared more composed in front of the camera. However, she was abroad and heard various accents around her. Plus, everyone spoke quickly. She became nervous again since what they said was difficult for her to understand but began live broadcasting after mentally preparing herself.
She promised she would broadcast live while traveling abroad, and her fans were very eager to watch it, so she canât let them up. Because of this, she also rejected the proposal of going out with her mother so she wouldnât have been so nervous.
Fortunately, Zhang Zianâs unique personality helped her overcome it when he suddenly appeared. The surprise of a familiar face in a foreign country suddenly relieved her tension.
However, fans didnât agree with that.
âI think I should call the police, I canât believe the stalking shop manager actually came to the United States!â
â911, thereâs an emergency here!â
âGross, donât put your big face so close! I can see the nose hair coming out of your nostrils!â
âListen to yourself... Now that I actually went back and looked at it again, it looks really gross!â
âHey, you guys have a unique taste. Do you really love Mr. Store Manager?â
Fans especially looked forward to Snowyâs first live broadcast abroad, waiting for the broadcast to air at the scheduled time. There were many online people, and the barrage of messages was even heavier.
When Zhang Zian called and waited, Snowy remained relaxed but wasnât idle. She took her mobile phone and walked around the front of the aquarium while interacting with fans.
She introduced some features of the Monterey Aquarium to the fans, filming Chinese and foreign tourists who brought their families to visit. Some cheerful tourists approached the camera and greeted themselves as well.
When Zhou Jing came out of the aquarium, Snowy looked at her curiously and found that she was really thin. Although her mother always thought that Snowy was too thin, she felt that she was too fat compared to Zhang Zian.
Snowy visually estimated Zhou Jingâs height to be about 1.7 meters. Despite being considered a tall girl, Snowy estimated that she mightâve weighed at least 40 kg based on the measurements of her arms and legs, but couldnât have exceeded 45 kg.
The sun shone on Zhou Jingâs face, making her complexion look pale.
Zhang Zian also noticed that Zhou Jingâs face looked unwell.
When he and Zhou Jing met on the street two days ago, Zhou Jing wore loose thermal sportswear since San Francisco was very cold in the morning and evening and she was too thin to not catch a cold during her morning run. At that time, he couldnât tell whether she was fat or thin. He thought she was just normal.
However, today, Zhou Jing changed into a tight-fitting diving suit and it accurately outlined the outline of the body; probably the smallest diving suit for an adult woman. To him, she seemed too thin and nearly lost all her feminine beauty.
âSorry to interrupt you! I contacted you earlier today and didnât know if you were busy. If you are busy, I can come again some other day,â he said humbly.
âItâs okay,â Zhou Jing waved her hand, âIâm not going to... enter the water today. Come with me.â
Despite what she said about not going into the water, he found out that her hair was still wet as if she had just come out of water.
Zhang Zian assumed that she was hiding something. The expression between her brows was mixed with anxiety and anger as if she mightâve erupted at any time.
However, he didnât know her, why she was acting this way, or how to comfort her. If he said some empty rhetoric, it mightâve made her feel worse.
He braced his head and pretended not to see it. Pointing to where Snowy stood at the side about ten meters away, he said, âI have a friend over there, is it convenient...?â
âNo problem, go ahead and meet up with them.â Zhou Jing agreed quickly.
âOkay, Iâll call her.â
Zhang Zian trotted a few steps, ran to Snowy, and whispered, âI met this girl by chance when I came to San Francisco. Since she works in this aquarium playing the role of a mermaid, she can take us into the aquarium. If youâre interested in a backstage visit to the staff area ... â
âHuh? I donât mind, but wouldnât I be bothering them?â
Snowy was intrigued. For her fans, it wasnât interesting at all to walk around the aquarium like ordinary photographers. If someone captured the daily working conditions of the aquarium staff and the operation mode of the aquarium, then the quality of her broadcastâs content wouldâve greatly increased.
Besides, it was even better to have acquaintances visit together. At the very least, she would remain calm and not panic if she ran into any trouble.
âIt should be okay. As long as we donât run around or do something we shouldnât do, it wonât matter as long as w donât affect their work,â Zhang Zian actually didnât know if bringing her in was fine, but this was an opportunity he couldnât afford to have missed. The general principle was that they couldnât cause trouble for Zhou Jing. Other aquariums had their trade secrets. This was a commercial aquarium, not a public facility.
Snowy nodded and whispered excitedly to report this unexpected good news to the fans.
Zhang Zian brought Snowy over and introduced her to Zhou Jing.
Snowy was also very humble. After introducing herself, she did not wait for Zhou Jing to introduce herself in return but proactively ensured that if there was something that shouldnât do, she would never do it randomly.
Zhou Jing was very generous and said with a smile, âYou think too much. Iâm just a minimum-wage worker in the aquarium. Thereâs nothing you canât shoot in the places where I can go, and I canât go where you canât shoot either.â
That was the truth.
As they were both frank with each other, they soon felt comfortable enough to chat. Snowy also asked Zhou Jing to say a few words to the fans in front of the camera.
Most of the fansâ comments sent persuaded Zhou Jing to eat more. Even the girls who were most keen on body shape thought that she was too thin and even worried that she might have anorexia, given that many girls were trying hard to lose weight. They often went on a crazy diet and even used extreme methods such as vomiting. The fat is eventually reduced, but there were some troublesome and terrible consequences such as anorexia.
Snowy saw the barrage of messages but was hesitant to mention it. Asking someone who she just met about her weight was perhaps a little too much and wouldâve caused them to feel annoyed and displeased.
After entering the aquarium, Zhou Jing led them into the employee-only channel instead of the normal tour route, telling the guard that they were here for an interview. She then quietly turned back to them and winked.
