Guardian:
干脆我们就不回去了，我们就留在这儿好好地生活, we might as well just not go back, let's stay here and live well
你恨的人是我，你为什么不干脆杀了我, I'm the one you hate, why don't you just kill me?
我有没有给你这个权利，来偷听我们的重要讲话, did I give you the right to eavesdrop on our important discussion?

Me:
外面下雨了，咱们别出去吃饭了，干脆在家里做意大利面吧。
你讲讲，我一边听听一遍看书。
