2. state-owned company=国企

3. manipulate= control
ex: he tried to manipulate the conversation.

In our conversation, he was trying to dominate me. He was showing me his social status, he was working in a very fancy investment company, he was showing his man power in front of me. I didn’t think he’s cooler than me, we are at the same level. I was texting my mom because I was so scared, I didn’t dare to leave. if I left, he might smack me.

I tried to avoid talking my stories, I don’t want to release any details from my side. So I kept asking about him, every time he answered, he would look into my eyes. At the beginning, he started to like me, he asked “can I walk you home?” He went a little bit softer.

I was so eager to expand my social circle, so I joined a dancing club in Liverpool. In that dancing class, there was no asian girls except for me. One day, they asked me to come to a bar to have a welcome party. I went and feel so awkward, because I can’t join their conversation, they didn’t try to include in their conversation. I went to the toilet, when I came back, the girl told me “don’t drink the water”.
