Not the Real Long Xiulan
Jin Liwei frowned. His confusion was evident in his expression. He looked at Iris but still couldn't understand what she meant by saying that her real name was Evelinka.
"Explain," he said.
She took a deep breath before continuing. "Actually, it's Evelina. That's my real, actual name. Evelinka is the nickname my big brother calls me. My other nickname is Evelinochka. My fa—I mean, another person used to call me that. In Russian culture, each name almost always has its own designated set of nicknames."
He only grew more confused the more he listened. Did she mean that she had a Russian name? Like how many Chinese people had English names? There were so many questions popping inside his mind. This time, however, he chose to stay silent and not ask her additional questions for now, waiting for her instead to elaborate and clarify her confusing words.
