The next morning, Ling-ling is wearing a cute outfit. She's so happy to see him that she wants to praise him. He's a tall guy, and she thinks it's rare to see someone so tall like him. She tells him how she went to the hospital and how she stayed home for three days. He tells her that she did a good job, and that she's progressing faster than she expected. He asks her what she thinks is going on between him and Madame Bovary. She says that she doesn't know, but that he's ignoring her.
