A: 陳靜，我覺得自己好像看錯入了。

Che´n J`ıng, woˇ jue´de z`ıjˇı haˇoxia`ng ka`ncuo`re´n le.

Chen Jing, I feel like I’ve misjudged someone.

B: 怎麼了？我看你和張亮不是挺好的嗎?

What’s wrong? I thought things with you and Zhang Liang were going pretty well, weren’t they?

A: 他好像揹著我和他的同事在一起。昨天他說加班，我打他手機想關心他一下。可沒想到他關機了。

It seems he has been seeing a co-worker of his behind my back. Yesterday he said he was working overtime. I called his cell phone to show some concern for him, but never ex- pected to find that he had his phone switched off.

B: 什麼？居然關機，不過張亮那麼老實，不會有間

題的。應該是手機沒電了。

bu`hu`ı yoˇuwe`nt´ı de. y¯ıngga¯ i sh`ı shoˇuj¯ı me´i dia`n le.

What? It’s surprising that he would have his phone turned off. But Zhang Liang is so trustworthy, it shouldn’t be a prob- lem. It’s probably that his battery died.

A: 我一開始也是這麼想的。所以我叉打去他公司。這回居然是個女的接的，而且還笑個不停，明顯是在和張亮打情罵俏。

At first that’s what I thought too. So I also called his com- pany. To my surprise, it was a woman that answered. Plus, she was laughing her head off it was obvious that she was flirting around with Zhang Liang.

B: 不會吧？是不是你想得太多了。同事間開玩笑很

正常嘛。

No way! Maybe you’re thinking too much. It’s normal for co-workers to joke around with each other.

A: 我的感覺不會錯的。張亮接電話的時候很緊張，

肯定是做賊心虛。

My feeling can’t be wrong. When Zhang Liang answered the phone he was very nervous. It must be because he has a guilty conscience.

B: 可能是最近張亮工作忙，你們連見面的時間都沒

有，所以你才這麼想。

Maybe it’s because Zhang Liang’s work has been busy, and you haven’t had time to even meet; so that’s why you’re thinking this way.

A: 可是他以前不管多忙，都會抽時間陪我。

But, before, no matter how busy he was, he would always find time to spend with me.

B: 哎，所以說現在的男入不可靠啊。他們永遠在想

自己的事業、自己的心情。

Hmm, so that’s why I say that all men are unreliable. They always think about their own careers, their own affairs.

A: 嗯，所以我說我看錯入了。我需要一個能全心全

意愛我的入。

Uh-huh. So that’s why I said that I had misjudged him. I need a person who can love me with all their heart and soul.

B: 我知道。其實張亮真的不錯，只不過他不是最適

合你的入。
