"You guys have to do well. I think that although you two are young, you look stable and sensible. When you get older and get married, you will definitely live happily. Young man, you have to be nice to such a good girl. A little bit."
"That...no, eldest sister, we..." Ji Yue finally came to his senses, with a frighteningly fair face, and explained quickly.
"Thank you, sister. I'll lend you your kind words." Before he could finish his sentence, Su Qingyun had already thanked her with a smile.
What is she saying? She admitted it instead of denying it? ! Ji Yue opened his mouth, extremely shocked.
Su Qingyun blinked at him quietly.
"Sister, you two go on, I'm going to the toilet." The woman said and left the cubicle.
Only the two of them were left again. Ji Yue glanced at her face and tried to control his heartbeat, "You just..."
"What?" Su Qingyun was stunned for a moment before reacting, "Are you asking me why I don't deny it?"
"We two young people are away from home. We should keep our relationship close so that others can't get close to us. We don't know each other anyway. We got out of the car and went our separate ways. It doesn't matter whether we deny it or not." Su Qingyun said it indifferently.
The experience of taking the train last time taught Su Qingyun that no matter how harmless someone looks, she has to be careful. Besides, when she goes out, her identity is given by herself. She can say whatever she wants.
Ji Yue was rendered speechless by her few words, which seemed to make sense, but what was the reason for the slight disappointment that welled up in his heart?
He tried to suppress this strange feeling, "You are right, let's continue."
"Okay." Su Qingyun did not see his momentary disappointed expression and continued to discuss with him intently.
The woman came back after a while, and seeing the seriousness of the two of them, she did not disturb them again.
The scenery outside the window flew by, and the sky quickly darkened. Ji Yue went to the dining car to buy some food and came back. They ate a lot at noon, and they were not very hungry. A few bites were enough for the two of them.
The steamed buns Ji Yue bought were white and white with thin skin and large fillings. When the steamed buns were broken open, the juices of the fresh meat flowed out, and the aroma of the meat instantly filled the entire compartment.
The woman looked at the big bun and swallowed uncontrollably. It smelled so good.
"Sister, are you hungry?" Su Qingyun said suddenly. She stretched out her hand and handed out a bun, "Here's one for you. We bought too much and can't eat it."
"No, no, why is this so embarrassing?" Although the woman was greedy, she still waved her hand and refused.
"It's okay. If you don't help us eat it, it will be wasted. Just take it." Su Qingyun held out her hand insistently.
"This..." the woman hesitated and stretched out her hand, "Then I'll accept it. Thank you."
"It's okay." Su Qingyun smiled.
The woman took the bun and ate it in small bites. The aroma of meat in her mouth made her squint her eyes with satisfaction.
Su Qingyun looked at the worn-out bag next to her, and was a little confused. According to her, her lover was already a continuous cadre, and the allowance should be quite large. They didn't have any children, so why did they feel so poor? Woolen cloth?
And how can someone who is willing to buy such a sleeper ticket be reluctant to buy a steamed bun?
Although Su Qingyun felt a little strange, he didn't think much about it.
After eating, she felt a little sleepy. After a few words with Ji Yue, she went to bed. It was quiet around her, so she fell asleep quickly and had a good night's sleep.
On the morning of the next day, the train arrived safely at the provincial capital railway station, and everyone got off the train in an orderly manner.
"Give it to me." Ji Yue said.
"No, why don't you help eldest sister carry it?" Su Qingyun saw that the woman was struggling to carry the huge military bag.
"No, no! I can carry it." The woman quickly refused.
The two of them didn't insist anymore.
They walked out of the train station front and back. At the exit, there was always a crowd of people, people picking up people and looking for people, all stretching their necks.
Seeing the woman looking around, Su Qingyun asked, "Sister, what's your name? I'll help you find it."
"My...my name is Wang Ru." The woman smiled gratefully.
Su Qingyun looked for the sign with Wang Ru's name in the crowd. Ji Yue was tall and long-legged. He took a casual look and found it. He pointed with his hand, "Over there."
Su Qingyun followed his line of sight and saw, sure enough, a young soldier in military uniform in the crowd was holding a sign with Wang Ru's name on it.
"I don't know that person." Wang Ru looked at the person with confused eyes.
"Sister, that should be your lover's comrade-in-arms. Your lover may have something to do and can't come to pick you up at the moment. Go ask and check your lover's name and identity. Wouldn't it be clear?" Su Qingyun said patiently.
"Yes, yes, look at my brain. I was confused in the car and couldn't turn the corner." Wang Ru suddenly realized as she patted her head.
"Then I'll go over." She jogged for a few steps, then turned back and smiled, "Sister, young man, thank you so much. If I have a chance in the future, I will definitely treat you to dinner."
Su Qingyun smiled and waved.
"Okay, one good deed a day is over." Su Qingyun snapped his fingers, "Let's find someone to pick us up." Yan Yan said that someone would pick them up at the train station.
Ji Yue glanced at her, with a smile on his lips.
"Wait a minute, do you think that sign over there says about us?" Su Qingyun suddenly tugged on his sleeve with a strange expression.
Ji Yue looked over and was silent for a moment.
"Welcome young experts from Luoshui County to come and provide guidance (Su Qingyun, Ji Yue)"
Su Qingyun stared at the person whose face was blocked so that she could not see clearly, speechless, "Who taught them to write signs like this?"
"Let's go, little expert." Ji Yue laughed.
Su Qingyun followed helplessly. After taking a few steps closer, her eyes suddenly widened and she shouted in surprise: "Brother Qi Heng, why are you here to pick us up?"
The person who turned around was Qi Heng. He was wearing a black sportswear. He looked energetic, agile and heroic. He smiled when he saw Su Qingyun. He put down the sign and said, "I am not entrusted by others. .”
"It's only been a few months since we last met. Have you grown taller?" He gestured at Su Qingyun's height.
"It's a little longer." Su Qingyun compared a short distance and said with a smile.
Ji Yue frowned slightly when he saw the familiarity between the two.
"Is this your classmate?" Qi Heng's eyes moved to Ji Yue. He had already heard Yan Yan talk about the cause and effect of the matter.
"Yes, let me introduce you. This is Qi Heng. You can just call me Brother Qi Heng like me. This is Ji Yue. Brother Qi Heng, just call me by your name." Su Qingyun introduced hurriedly.
Ji Yue's face was pale, but he was polite and said, "Hello."
"Hello, hello, this young man looks energetic." Qi Heng praised with a smile, but did not feel that his attitude was cold.
"What about us now?" Su Qingyun asked tentatively.
"Old rule, go put your things away first, and then we'll go eat and catch the wind for you!" Qi Heng waved his hand. He had specially asked for leave today.
"Okay, you can arrange your territory." Su Qingyun's eyebrows curved.
The two of them had to stay here for at least half a month, so it was naturally impossible for them to stay in a guest house. Yan Yan had already asked his superiors to apply for a place to live in the institute for the two of them. Qi Heng was also a frequent visitor to the institute and took them to their place of residence without any hindrance.
"There are two rooms, one for each of you. Put your things first, wash your face, and tell me if you need anything." Qi Heng introduced.
"Okay, thank you, Brother Qi Heng."
Qi Heng was waiting outside. Both of them moved very quickly. They put the things down, wiped their faces casually and came out.
"It's almost time." Qi Heng looked at his watch, "Jan Yan should be coming out of the laboratory soon. Let's go to the hotel to wait for him."
"Okay." The two of them had no objection.
Qi Heng led the two of them to the state-owned hotel where they had reserved a seat.
In a certain laboratory of the research institute, Yan Yan, who was wearing a lab coat, was busy. Because he was thinking about something in his mind, the movements of his hands were a little anxious. The assistant next to him looked at him strangely.
"Brother Yan, what's wrong? Why are you in such a hurry today?"
"There are distinguished guests arriving today, so of course I'm anxious." Yan Yan smiled.
"What kind of distinguished guest?" Xie U wondered.
"The one I mentioned before, the little expert I invited to help." Yan Jun said mysteriously.
"Little expert?" The assistant was stunned and then remembered, "Are you talking about the one who helped us do data analysis before?"
"right."
"Good guy, Brother Yan, did you really invite people here?" the assistant said excitedly. For those of them who are doing experiments, if they can have a data analysis person beside them to help, it will be twice the result with half the effort, and the progress of the experiment will be greatly shortened. Efficiency will also increase.
"That's not true." Yan Yan said proudly, "I wrote to her three times before inviting her here. You tell everyone and be polite to her then." This could be regarded as three visits to the thatched cottage.
The assistant quickly assured: "Understood! We will definitely coax him well and try to keep him with us for a while."
"That might still not work." Yan Jun thought for a while, "I still have to go to school."
"Go to...school?" the assistant stammered, his eyes widened.
"Yes, didn't I say that?" Yan Yan asked doubtfully.
What did you say? ! The assistant held his breath. He only listened to Brother Yan talking about how awesome that person was throughout the whole process. Who would have thought that such an awesome person is still in school?
but……
"It's okay if you go to college. The teachers will approve the leave." The assistant asked doubtfully. Being able to join the research institute to help during college is a dream come true for both students and teachers. How could they not agree?
"Who told you you're in college?" Yan Yan waved his hand, "I'm still in high school, sophomore year."
Sophomore year of high school? ! The assistant was completely dumbfounded, and a high school student was invited to their institute to help? Did you invite me more than once? What an awesome person this was, and the assistant couldn't help but become more curious about him.
"Okay, you finish this experiment. When you're done, write up the experiment report. I'll take a look at it in the afternoon." Yan Yan looked at the time, but it was too late. He hurriedly said the next sentence and left.
At noon, before Yan Yan could say it in the laboratory, his assistant had already made it known to everyone.
