Chapter 213: A Strange Land
After getting the notice to work in the United States, Liu Lan and He Xueyi began to apply for visas, but fortunately, He Xueyi was from the personnel department, and she found a visa agency to help deal with it.
In September, they all got work visas to the United States.
Jordan had been keeping an eye on the progress of their visas, and as soon as he heard the news that they had received their visas, Yue Yang called: "Hi, Anthony! Did you get the Visa? ”
“Yeh, Boss!” Anthony is Liu Lan's English name specially taken for going abroad, he is tall, likes basketball, in the 2003-04 season, Carmelo Anthony of the Denver Nuggets averaged 21.04 points, 2.77 assists and 6.07 rebounds per game, ranked first among the rookies in the class of 2003, which impressed him, the owner's name was Jordan, he was named Anthony, his surname could not be changed, and his surname was Liu.
“Guys, please book your flight as soon as possible!” Jordan urged on the phone.
“Let me check the flight first, then get back to you my schedule!” Liu Lan replied.
In the evening, a discussion about when to go to the United States started between Liu Lan and He Xueyi.
"My dear, our visa has been completed, Jordan asked us to book a ticket and leave immediately!" Liu Lan said with a smile, since he got the visa, his heart has already flown to the other side of the ocean.
Over there, there are three hundred and sixty-five days in the year, and every day the moon is round.
"Let's leave on October 1st!" He Xueyi insisted.
On that day, she remembered that it was Wang Shiyi's birthday!
On October 1, 2000, she cooked old hen soup for him for his 19th birthday.
I left on October 1st because I wanted to remember Eleventh forever in my heart!
"My dear, October 1 is the National Day Golden Week, and we can't buy plane tickets!" Liu Lan's impression of the Golden Week is that there are crowds everywhere, the buses can't be crowded, and it takes half a day to queue up for a toilet in the scenic spot.
"Don't worry, I must have a way to buy a plane ticket!" Leaving on October 1st, everyone is on holiday, and someone is good to see us off, this time, I don't know when I will be able to come back!" He Xueyi said emotionally.
She was right, this time, how easy it is to come back, Liu Lan nodded, and agreed with her.
On October 1, the day of the National Day, the two classmates in Shenzhen gathered at the airport to see them off when they heard the news.
Li Xiaohua, the old squad leader of the 115th class of high school, rushed over from Chungcheng, held Liu Lan tightly with both hands and said, "Mr. Liu, our class flower will be handed over to you!"
"Squad Leader Li, please rest assured, I will treat her well!" Liu Lan said with a smile.
"Mr. Liu, He Xueyi is the dream lover of the boys in our class, everyone wants to pursue her, but they didn't succeed, I didn't expect her to be conquered by you, you took her away, and you took away all the boys in our class who missed her!" Li Xiaohua sighed infinitely.
"In this way, my Liu Lan is very charming!" That day, Liu Lan's interest was very high, and when he spoke, his tone was also very big.
Seeing the little couple holding hands and walking towards the security checkpoint, Li Xiaohua shook his head: "He Xueyi has gone abroad, from now on, there will be no more snow in my memory!"
"Squad leader, she is gone, and she has taken away all the snow of my life!" said the prawn guest with emotion.
"Dead ghost! If there is no snow, you will not die? If you miss her, you should go abroad with her!" Wang Simin, who had a pigtail on his head, kicked the prawn with his high heels.
"Ouch, don't be so cruel, my aunt!" The prawn man hunched over, crooked his mouth, and looked pained.
"Shit luck, it's really shit luck! I found a fairy-like wife, and now we both go abroad again!" On the other side, Hu Yishou, who came to see him off, also sighed.
"I heard that the Dollar is very valuable! Get rich, get rich!" Qian Wuwu shuddered at the thought of money.
"Let's go, international flights have to go through customs two hours in advance. At the entrance of the security check, Liu Lan reminded He Xueyi softly.
He Xueyi looked restless, her eyes kept looking out, as if waiting for someone to appear.
Yes, she is waiting for Wang Eleven, waiting for his appearance, waiting for his blessing.
Today, however, he did not appear.
Where did he go? Didn't he come to Shenzhen to work again?
Don't say that we have been deeply in love, at least we are also classmates, and the classmates who work in Shenzhen are here, why are you missing?
The hatred in your heart must not have dissipated!
You can't do that!
The person I wanted to see was never seen.
No one knew that she had not been heard from until 2017, when Wang Shiyi wanted to recruit R&D director, she died in a foreign country and was buried in a cemetery.
October nights in Shenzhen were still warm, and they joined the long queue for Check In, carrying their luggage.
In the queue, He Xueyi, who was slender, stood out as a flock, she kept turning her head, stretching her neck like a swan, her eyes passed over the hands of her classmates waving goodbye, and her eyes passed over the heads of everyone in the hall, which was blank, a huge blank.
She saw nothing, so she quietly lowered her head and crept through the security gate.
Once she went, she never returned to China.
She felt that Wang Shiyi did not send her out of the country that day, which was the greatest harm to her, and she would never be able to forgive him.
That day, on the flight to the United States, most of them had yellow faces, and during the long and bumpy trip, sitting next to He Xueyi and Liu Lan was an old lady, she looked embarrassed, and after tossing in the seat for a while, the old lady said: "Girl, you are sitting by the window, can you open the window?"
"The windows on the plane can't be opened. He Xueyi said softly.
"Girl, listen to my son, the air in the United States is very fresh, but in this American plane, the air is not good at all, it is not as good as our rural areas, although there are and cow in the countryside, but the air is fresh. The old lady frowned and complained.
"Auntie, is your son in the United States?" He Xueyi asked softly.
"Yes, my son teaches at a university in the United States. When the old lady said this, she looked proud.
At this time, the stewardess came over with a cart of drinks and asked the old lady sitting in the aisle, "What drink do you need to order?"
"How much do you sell for your drink? It's too expensive, I don't want it. The old lady had been on the train, and in her impression, the drinks on the train were sky-high, and she thought that the drinks on the plane must not be much cheaper, so she pursed her thirsty lips and said.
"Our drinks were provided free of charge and no money. The stewardess said.
"Then a bottle of Coke. "As soon as the old lady hears that it is free, the more the merrier.
"I'll pour you a glass first, and then call me when I need to!" the stewardess finished and poured her a frothy Coke.
While the old lady was drinking, after watching the stewardess walk away, she sighed: "Free, free, let you give a bottle, you will be stingy, a glass of water, except for foam, half a cup is gone, work in the field, we are all a big bowl of drink, this little coke, not enough to moisten the throat!"
He Xueyi smiled: "If it's not enough, ask her again!"
The long flight was exhausting, and when she opened her eyes in her sleep, the news of the landing began to come from the plane's radio:
Ladies and Gentlemen:
It is local time 9:30. We will be landing at Los Angeles International Airport in about thirty minutes.
She opened her eyes quietly, outside the window, the white clouds were blooming, and the weather in Los Angeles should be good.
Thirty minutes later, when the plane arrived at the airport in the United States, He Xueyi walked out of the cabin, the first rays of foreign sunlight shone through, facing the morning breeze, she took a deep breath of air, indeed, the air there was very fresh, even mixed with a faint fragrance of flowers and plants.
The yellow face in front of him gradually dissipated in the crowded crowd, and when he exited the "International Arrivals" exit of the airport, the yellow face gradually became rare, and He Xueyi finally realized that he had left his motherland.
She pulled her suitcase, tears streaming down her face.
"What's wrong with you?" Liu Lan ran up behind him and asked with concern.
"I'm fine!" He Xueyi bit her lip tightly and said, but the tears of indisputability still dripped down, leaving the familiar land, she felt lonely.
In fact, she was originally a lonely person, and the old superstitions of the patriarchal people in the village of Chungcheng could not tolerate her at all, and her father and mother lived in a distant kingdom of heaven, who could rely on her?
On that day, no one came to meet them at the airport, they took a taxi to Radium USA.
In the taxi, He Xueyi couldn't be happy, and she didn't gnaw a word along the way.
Liu Lan was very excited, he sat in the passenger seat, talking to the taxi driver from time to time, and bursting into laughter from time to time.
