Sharing a room with Su Mingzheng is a graduate student who also attends Davis University, named Brigitte, with bright blonde hair and blue eyes, but worthy of her status as a karate player, 180 tall, tall and horse-like, a veritable female man. Although Brigitte majored in calculators at Davis University, she spent her days running to the internship factory, doing things that didn't look like research, more like a female foreman who was always on her side.

At the beginning, Su Mingzheng had just settled here, and found the place where she lives now after following the real estate agent's advertisement, and Briggie was one step later than her, but the two quickly negotiated the matter of sharing a house, and they got along very happily.

Su Mingzheng took Chen Wen back to his cottage, which was a small two-story building painted with a white roof, but Su Mingzheng and his roommate only rented part of the first floor, and other tenants lived on the second floor.

The small building is already a thirty-year-old house, and you can hear the creaking sound of wooden planks when you step on the door, and the decoration inside also looks old, for example, at this time, Su Mingzheng stretched out his hand to block Chen Wen beside him.

"Don't step on that plank over there, the nails are sticking out. She kindly reminded the visitor.

"Oh!" Coco Chen, who was carrying the luggage, hurriedly retracted his feet, which were only wearing plastic foam slippers, and stood straight.

Thinking about it carefully, this woman only carried a 20-inch suitcase when she came to a foreign country, which was really light and simple, Su Mingzheng suddenly wondered if she would die of cold outside if she didn't bring her back?

Just as Su Mingzheng put the paper bag in his hand on the dining table in the corner of the living room, Brigitte, who was staying in the room, ran out enthusiastically to greet her, unlike the thin image of people who love calculators, Brigitte did not wear glasses, she was wearing thick clothes, she was wearing thick clothes, and she was like a golden bear, and she patted Su Mingzheng on the shoulders very enthusiastically and generously.

"Su, what's delicious?" the big bear girl looked down and rummaged through the paper bag on the table. Su Mingzheng also has an English name, but Brigitte is particularly fond of this monosyllabic surname.

Su Mingzheng looked at the roommate in front of him, his face was a little helpless, "This is Chen." Coco Chen. "It's a lot of fun to be able to put a big living person aside and turn over the food first.

"Coco Chen, this is Brigitte. As an intermediary, Su Mingzheng completed the task of introducing the two sides.

According to politeness, the two women shook hands politely and greeted each other.

It can be heard that Coco Chen's foreign language is quite fluent, so it's no wonder that he dares to travel alone.

"You can eat the salad and fruit first, and I'll cook the soup. With Brigitte present, Su Mingzheng naturally spoke a foreign language, and since Coco Chen could understand it, he didn't need to care.

The eldest lady who didn't touch the spring water with her fingers is now cooking, this is a helpless move, Su Mingzheng has self-knowledge, her own cooking skills...... If it is cooked, it will be Amitabha Buddha (namaste).

But there are other people who are even worse cooks, such as a roommate who only uses a microwave oven.

After taking the ribs in the freezer, Su Mingzheng wants to make a radish stewed pork ribs, which couldn't be easier, throw the radish and pork ribs into the pot, cover the pot and stew for forty minutes, and you're done. But of course, the radish has to be peeled, and the ribs have to be scalded to force the bleeding first, and the foreign pig has a strong taste, so the steps of forcing the bleeding are even more important.

During this period, Coco Chen once walked into the kitchen, and Su Mingzheng was about to ask her: Do you know how to cook!?

Coco Chen seemed to read her thoughts, and waved her hand again and again, "I don't know how to cook, I'm just curious." ”

Fortunately, she still had a conscience, and then asked, "Do you want to drink milk?"

Although the milk is icy, Su Mingzheng is still dry, this cold feeling is the enjoyment that those who eat ice cream outside are looking for.

Outside, Brigitte, who only uses the microwave oven, puts the salad in a large basin and takes it to the microwave, and at the end of the day, she still does not forget the salad dressing that comes with the microwave bag, and then pours the warm salad dressing on all kinds of warm vegetables and fruits, which is a simple warm salad.

Su Mingzheng, who was waiting for the stew time, also sat at the table with the two young ladies from the distant kitchen, everyone packed a bowl of salad and ate it with the toast that jumped out of the toaster, and Chen Wen simply sandwiched the lettuce into two slices of toast and finished the sandwich. Seeing her moves, Brigitte immediately removed cheese slices, ham, and cream from the refrigerator to make a more luxurious version of the sandwich.

According to what Su Mingzheng vaguely heard in the kitchen, Coco Chen had already explained everything to Briggie about dropping his wallet, not only did he have no money, but even his passport, ID card, and credit card were in his wallet.

That seems to be really troublesome, Su Mingzheng thought while eating the luxurious version of the sandwich made by Brigitte, don't forget who bought the food, and make a sandwich or two filial piety, "What are you going to do next?" Su Mingzheng asked Coco Chen curiously.

"Otherwise, I'll accompany you to the police tomorrow, right?" It seems that this is how it should be handled, and then check on the Internet later.

"Good. Coco Chen, who nodded, was completely contented and happy, and he didn't know what he was happy about......

Radish pork rib soup is really the finale, and in winter, I still enjoy a bowl of steaming soup the most, even if the varieties of radish are not the same, the pork ribs seem to be fishy, and the seasoning is only simple salt and pepper, and the three of them still rushed to drink the bottom of the pot lively.

Brigitte, a Westerner, was not picky at all, and waited until she drank two large bowls before saying, "This soup is so clear, I can't drink it enough." ”

"It's not a soup. Okay, cook corn bisque next time. Su Mingzheng also relaxed, holding his head and responding easily.

"I want to drink it all. Coco Chen smiled and accosted.

"You don't pay the cost of eating!" Pretending, Su Mingzheng pointed his finger at Coco Chen.

Coco Chen just held the bowl, hiding behind the bowl and smiling at Su Mingzheng with his eyes exposed, a good royal sister also learned to beg for mercy.

Seeing that begging for mercy didn't work, she changed her strategy and slapped the bowl on the table, and proudly declared: "If I get my wallet back, I will help everyone improve their diet!"

Everyone knows the odds of getting a stolen wallet back...... The other two had disdainful contempt in their eyes.

Just as everyone was full and ready to leave, Brigitte suddenly stood up, "By the way, su, there is your letter." I brought it in from the mailbox for you. ”

She walked back to her room to get the letter, and teased: "It should be a Christmas card, right? In order not to expire, it was sent so many days in advance, and you really remember you at home, and it was before, New Year, Spring Festival, Easter, Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, Thanksgiving, none of them were missed, so I knew it must be a holiday card just by looking at the envelope." She counted so many festivals one by one, and the time spent living with Su Mingzheng also allowed Brigitte to learn a lot of oriental festivals.

A red and blue-bordered, card-sized international mail envelope was handed over to Su Mingzheng by Brigitte.

There are only two rooms in the apartment, and of course Coco Chen, who eats and drinks for nothing, can only sleep on the sofa, so after Brigitte and Su Mingzheng return to the room, she opened the suitcase, sorted out the clothes in it one by one, and found the portable cup she carried, ready to go to the kitchen to fill a cup of hot water.

So, she happened to see Su Mingzheng sitting at the desk through the unclosed door, Su Mingzheng held the international mail in front of her with two hands in a daze, but finally did not open the letter, directly opened the drawer and threw the letter into the depths, and closed the drawer hard.

At this time, Su Mingzheng also saw Coco Chen who was standing outside stupidly, like a mouse caught by a cat, Coco Chen hurriedly raised his glass, and hid in the kitchen lightly, and when she finished filling the hot water and came out, Su Mingzheng's door was already closed.

In the room, Su Mingzheng took out the books in her schoolbag and continued to bury herself in them, she had almost maintained such a high-intensity investment for two months, and she had lost a lot of weight, if it weren't for the fact that her body was still strong under continuous exercise, she might be pressed down by pressure.

The minute hand of the clock turned round and round, and when Su Mingzheng felt a little tired, he decided to go out to wash his face, and the time was already late at night.

Su Mingzheng was surprised to find that it seemed that the lazy and lazy Chen Cohen had not slept yet, and the quilt had been laid on the sofa, so she sat on the blanket as the bottom cushion and hugged the quilt to watch the moon through the window.

"Can't sleep?" only facing Chen Min, Su Mingzheng can speak Chinese again, she doubts: Could it be that this sister is actually deeply traumatized, just don't say it?

"It's probably jet lag......," Coco Chen replied softly.

Su Mingzheng walked over in the dark and sat down in another chair.

"Why are you here?" this is Su Mingzheng is very curious about the question, this neighborhood is not a tourist hotspot, the only special thing is that there are more universities, and the rest are ordinary southern state landscapes.

"I'm going to think about things. Coco Chen replied calmly.

"I'm so tired from my job right now, I'm not happy with it, and I want to quit. The tone is innocent and soft, like a child coquettish.

"But I'm thirty years old this year, shouldn't I settle down?" the older kid sighed as he sunk his chin into the quilt.

"I want to find a good boss and have fun. ”

It's because I'm worried about my career...... Su Mingzheng felt a little like a world away when she heard it, she didn't think about changing jobs other than being the president of Xinguang, but this kind of trouble is probably for ordinary people... Quite normal, right...... Actually, maybe you can come and worry about it yourself?

"Your current job must be very good, right?" Don't look at Coco Chen's unreliable appearance, just by being fluent in foreign languages, pure accent, and conversation, you can feel that she is well-educated.

"It's stable, the position is high, and the salary is good. The man who said these words was looking out the window with a confused expression.

Su Mingzheng was silent, she really didn't have much experience in this kind of career thinking, and she couldn't say words of introspection, so she thought about it before saying, "Do you want to climb all the way to a high position, take on heavier responsibilities, and enjoy more severe challenges?"

Coco Chen glanced at her, obviously a little surprised in his eyes, and after a while, he turned back to the front and muttered, "Do I want to ......?"

So, just change the trouble into another problem! Su Mingzheng couldn't help but laugh secretly.

"What about you, why are you here?" Suddenly shaking off his troubles, Chen Wen looked at Su Mingzheng with full interest.

"Actually, you're not as close to your family as Brigitte says, are you? I saw you lost the card without even opening it. So you're not an ordinary international student, are you? There's a reason why you're here, right?"

Su Mingzheng had always suspected that Chen Wen recognized her, but she didn't look like she said these words.

"I was almost cut off from my family, something happened...... I've pretty much been rushed here. ”

"Well......" Chen Wen, who was six years older than Su Mingzheng, finally looked like an older sister, tilted her head, put her left cheek on the sheet, and looked at the student who brought her home carefully.

"You still want to go back, right?" Chen Min cut off the iron mouth, just to save herself home in order to speak Chinese, her intuition was this, "Domestic... There are still people who are missing, right?"

"Yes...... Yes. For example, those friends who have righteousness and have never abandoned her, Su Mingzheng has the faces of many friends in her mind, and it is false to say that she does not care.

Seeing Su Mingzheng's expression falling into memory, Chen Wen also stopped talking, and at the same time, he also fell into some kind of contemplation, and the two of them quieted down together.

In fact, the meaning of Coco Chen's sentence of thinking about people includes: for example, the person who still sends the card.

Those letters sent in accordance with the festival were written by Su Ronghan.

Su Mingzheng knew it by looking at the handwriting on the cover.
