PASSAGE
Chen tells his coworker: '我这个月十五号要出差，二十号回来。我回来以后第三天，我们可以开会讨论项目。'
On which date does Chen propose to hold the project meeting?
A
二十二号 (the 22nd), because '回来以后第三天' counts the return day itself as day one, making day two the 21st and day three the 22nd
B
二十三号 (the 23rd), because Chen returns on the 20th and '回来以后第三天' means three days after returning, which is the 20th plus 3 days = the 23rd
C
二十一号 (the 21st), because '第三天' is often used colloquially to mean 'a couple of days later,' effectively meaning the second day after return, which is the 21st
D
二十四号 (the 24th), because Chen returns on the 20th, needs one full rest day on the 21st, and '第三天以后' would place the meeting on the 24th after accounting for a preparation period
