[quote=ZOEY,257619]No.2 叶公好龙 (Ye 4 Gong 1 Hao 4 Long 2). It refers to Lord Ye's love of dragons. Legend: In ancient times, a guy named Lord Ye is crazy about dragons. You can see dragon patterns everywhere in his house, on the wall, on his bed, his clothes etc. A dragon living in the heaven learned that Lord Ye loves him very much so that he decided to pay a visit to Lord Ye's. While dragon arriving at Lord Ye's house, the dark clouds covered the sky, lightening flashed and the thunder boomed. When seeing the real dragon, Lord Ye felt very frightened and just ran away. Actually, he did not really love dragon , but something very like dragon.[/quote]
