Haoran sighed and walked away. “What’s the matter?” asked Mr Yang, the boss. “People always choose Lele instead of me. I don’t understand.” Reading “I do. It’s the way you communicate.” “How can that be?” Haoran asked. “I don’t get a chance to speak.” “Communicating means more than just speaking. Your body language is important too.” “Body language?” “It’s the way you stand and sit. It’s your gestures and the expressions on your face. Your whole appearance communicates things. You don’t give people a good impression, Haoran. You look down, you never smile, and you don’t turn your head towards them. “Look at Lele. She’s holding her head up. She always smiles and looks friendly. Her body language is making people feel welcome, so they go to her for help.” Haoran observed Lele carefully for a while and then decided to improve his own body language. He sat up straight and tried smiling at people. Minutes later, a beautiful girl entered. She walked over to Haoran. A few moments later, she left with a smile.
