Zhenzhen looked down at her now empty cup of tea. She wanted to ask for more but it seemed more important to answer the question Mei Mei had asked. "I don't know. I was a young girl when I met him and I had the biggest crush on him. From that point of view I can answer what I think of him confidently.
From a political view, I am candidly puzzled. The few occasions I have spoken to him, he sticks to light topics. On political subjects, he speaks in parables and riddles that leave me confused.
He once asked me what kind of worm I would be if I were reborn. I said a European Nightcrawler because it is strong and lively."
Mei Mei rung a small bell with her eyes fixed on the entrance to the living room and her lips curving upwards. "That kind of worm is great for bait."
Zhenzhen let out a faint laugh. "He said the exact same thing."
