Today’s key word is Tale

Tale 故事

今天我们要说的这个爱情故事里，也住着一位公主。It is the love story of Mark Zuckerberg and Priscilla Chan. Mark Zuckerberg-脸书的CEO大家应该都听说过，We talked about him and his new born daughter in the last episode.

Today, we are going to tell you the love story of him and his wife- Priscilla Chan.

那是2003年的一个晚上，Mark Zuckerberg was just a college student at Harvard.(哈佛大学) He went to a party with his friends. 喝了几杯之后，Mark准备去洗手间，在排队等着进去的时候，就在这个时候，He met a lovely and beautiful girl called Priscilla Chan.（所以说童鞋们，When you meet someone you like, do not hesitate to tell her that you like her.）And soon, these two students at Harvard started dating each other. After some time, Mark took another big decision(决定) of his life; he dropped out（退学） to run his company, then titled- The Facebook.

请注意，此时扎克伯格还不是亿万富翁。退学后的Zuckerberg 开始运营FACEBOOK, 两个人也开始了异地恋。Zuckerberg是个工作狂，常常忘记跟Priscilla 联系。后来，Zuckerberg和他的公司都常驻在加利福尼亚，Priscilla也离开哈佛跟着他到加利福尼亚大学继续学习。Priscilla always stood by him.

They fell in love when Zuckerberg was nothing but a college student, and they are still in love now that he has become a multi-billionaire（亿万富翁）.其实，Zuckerberg在我们的眼中是一个坐拥亿万美元的青年才俊，但在Priscilla眼中-- he was just my boyfriend.

Priscilla是一个成长在普通甚至不太富裕的华裔家庭的女孩，Her parents immigrated（移民）to the United States in refugee boats （难民船） Her mother worked two jobs during her entire childhood（童年）.

She is the first in her family to go to college.她像所有女朋友一样给Mark 定了规矩，A minimum of 100 minutes of alone time每天至少100分钟独处的时间。At least one date night every week. 每周至少一次约会时间。

又过了一段时间后，Mark像所有沉浸在爱情中的男孩子一样，在自己的facebook主页上兴奋的写道“Priscilla Chan is moving in this weekend."

到了2012年，Priscilla从医学院毕业了，他们在家里开Party庆祝她的毕业。但所有人都没有想到，In the presence of 100 guests, Mark announced (宣布) it as the day of their wedding. Mark presented a simple ruby wedding ring（红宝石婚戒） to his love, which he had personally designed for her.

俩人就这样结婚了。没有大张旗鼓的宣传，没有奢华繁琐的布置，没有轰动半个富豪圈的宾客。就这样简简单单，干干净净，幸幸福福的两个人在一起了。现在还有了一个可爱的女儿Max。

Ann Landers says: “Love is friendship(友谊) that has caught fire. It is quiet understanding（理解）, mutual confidence（信心）, sharing and forgiving. It is loyalty（忠诚） through good and bad times. （甘苦与共）希望我亲爱的听众们你们都能找到属于自己的幸福。与相爱的人相依相守，白头偕老。

See you next time.
