Chapter 632: Human Lives Are Different
Liu Guantong is not Liu Guanxiong's brother. The two of them are not related to each other in the slightest. Although the names of the two people make people feel like brothers at first glance, although both of them are the fourth students of Fujian Shipbuilding College.
One of the two of them studied ship design -- Liu Guantong, and the other studied naval warfare -- Liu Guanxiong. Their fates are also very different.
Because of the Machengang incident that year, Liu Guanxiong is now a prosperous official, like a pearl in the navy that rose later. Liu Guantong is also an outstanding talent in China's ship design, but it is a pity that the status of China's ship designers is worse than that of the rising star of the navy. Liu Guanxiong is famous all over the country because of a Machen port; Liu Guantong is unknown, and even a small number of people who know his name are engaged in shipbuilding.
Three years ago, Liu Guantong was selected by the government to go to the United Kingdom, and after the two-year study period, he came to the Elswick shipyard, which has a contract with the Chinese government, to intern and sharpen. This time is only one year. It stands to reason that Liu Guantong wants to collapse and take it seriously, even if he is faintly rejected by his colleagues and workers, he must seize every minute of time to learn and enrich. However, very unexpectedly, he unintentionally and easily hooked up with a Chinese woman living near the shipyard - An Qing.
An Qing is the daughter of a very ordinary Chinese family next to the shipyard, and the family runs a small grocery store, and lives in the local Chinese settlement.
An Qing is very beautiful, very in line with the aesthetics of the Chinese. When his father beat An Qing when he was young, he often said that his daughter was so beautiful, it was better for the whole family to return to China. It means that with An Qing's beauty, you can definitely find a rich family in China. Whether they are wives or concubines, then naturally their family's livelihood will be guaranteed. Daddy Ann is not greedy! 、
And such a beauty falls in love with herself. This made Liu Guantong, who was nearly 30 years old, very excited. He went to visit An Qing's parents during the Chinese New Year and decided to do so after the internship expired. took An Qing back to China. Although he has a wife and children at home, this does not delay him from marrying another wife.
After the beginning of spring, Liu Guantong handed over a gift money to An's father, and simply set up a table and banquet, and Liu Guantong was considered a concubine. In the next few months, Liu Guantong's classmates did not live too comfortably.
Yesterday, the news of Tacheng's victory finally reached the UK, and the Chinese here were as happy as the New Year, and Liu Guantong felt that the surrounding foreigners looked at him differently. After a few drinks in the evening, the spirit was not the usual excitement.
When he woke up in the morning, Liu Guantong was holding a slippery beauty in his arms, and his interest was undiminished, and the two hugged each other tightly.
An Qingjiao* gasped again and again, supporting Liu Guantong's chest with both hands, her charming big eyes seemed to be open and closed, and spring and tide were overflowing. And Liu Guantong looked at An Qing, who was tactfully believing under him, and the huge snow white that caught his eyes. and the two red tassels on it, which made him burn all over.
When the passion reached its peak, An Qing's chest only 'wrapped' Liu Guantong, and then squinted his eyes and gasped slightly. It seems to be reminiscing about the hot passion just now.
The two have never had safe contraception, but unfortunately, An Qing has not shown any signs of pregnancy so far. Liu Guantong has been completely infatuated with her, and An Qing seems to have been faintly apprehensive. Although An Qing never expressed it.
Liu Guantong considers himself a distant China. and his own family, the pressure brought to An Qing. His reaction was always to hug her tightly. Kiss her forehead and lips while feeling the soft elasticity of her chest. Firmly said to her, "I promise, I will love you for the rest of my life." ”
After the passion, the two warmed up for a while, Liu Guantong saw that the sun was already high, and the room was very bright through the blue curtains, so he got up to go to work, today is not his day off. An Qing quickly put on her pajamas and served Liu Guantong neatly. This is Liu Guantong's favorite place for An Qing.
As a family that came to China a few years after the second crow, An Qing herself is a Chinese born in the UK, but she does not have the style of a British woman at all, no matter how she acts or thinks, just like a girl in China.
An Qing leaned on Liu Guantong's back, hugged him coquettishly and said, "I am so reluctant to let you go." When you leave, I won't see you for a day. "It's only emotionally fiery, but for any man, it's all enjoyment, not disgust.
Liu Guantong was still paralyzed on An Qing's body just now, but now he is in high spirits. In the past, he was a little reluctant to go to work in the factory, but today he longs to see his colleagues, shipyard mechanics, those ordinary workers early.
Thinking about the glorious victory in the Battle of Tacheng reported in the newspaper, Liu Guan's colleagues are all floating.
No longer in Europe, you don't know what more than 200,000 Russian troops mean. In the entire Crimean War, the Russian army's losses were only 260,000 people, including a large number of wounded and sick and those infected due to their appearance. I am afraid that less than half of the people who really 'lose' directly on the battlefield. Moreover, at that time, it was Britain, France, Austria, Turkey and other countries besieging Russia, and the weapons in the hands of the British and French troops were significantly higher than those of the Russians, although the medical conditions of the army at that time were very poor, and serious injuries meant amputation and death.
Therefore, in a fair and head-on contest, with a slightly inferior force, under the command of His Majesty the Emperor of China, the Chinese army completely annihilated more than 200,000 Russian troops at the cost of only one-fifth of the casualties and less than one-tenth of the direct death rate, which immediately made the impression of China subversive in the eyes of many ordinary British people.
Even if countless ordinary British people still regard China as a backward and barbaric country, this backward and barbaric country is also a powerful country. In the world of the late 19th century, this impression was enough for China to stand in the sequence of the world's leading powers.
Liu Guantong's whole person was softened by An Qing's snort, and he held An Qing's palm on his chest and said, "I will miss you too." But work is work, we can't delay, and we will have time together in the future. ”
After Liu Guantong left, An Qing immediately closed the door and sat quietly in front of the dresser. For a long time, she has been feeling helpless and lonely in her heart, since she came to Liu Guantong's side, she has been living in fear every day, like a frightened bird, the footsteps in the corridor can make her heart hang in her throat, such a frightened day is too difficult.
But all this was doomed when she was sent by her father to the Chinese middle school funded by the church. The Church in England will not be so kind to fund the establishment of schools to teach Chinese knowledge, and what is hidden under the 'charity' of this Chinese school is cold and cruel - spy selection.
The school's top management will select a group of boys and girls with 'anti-Qin' political tendencies and beautiful and handsome appearances from among the students in the first batch of students to be included in their program. There are not many such people, at least when An Qing was receiving 'extracurricular training', she didn't see many 'colleagues' who belonged to the same category. Of course, these people have one thing in common, they, their families, are all in the UK, and they are all under the control of the British government.
An Qing couldn't refuse this powerful external force. Otherwise, what awaits her is the destruction of the entire family.
This kind of secret, which even the dearest parents can't tell, has been buried in An Qing's heart for three years. For a thousand days and nights, she didn't know how many times she longed to return to the original moment. Between this kind of tormented life and not going to school, she will not hesitate to choose the latter. Although the 'extracurricular tutoring' in the three years is not long, according to statistics, An Qing's training is no more than two months.
The most she was trained in was a series of cipher joints and the use of some chemicals. These chemicals are not poisons or anything like that, but a simple chemical trick of how to make the handwriting disappear, how to make the handwriting visible.
Then, the only instruction given to these girls by the people behind the middle school was to lurk, wait for the moment, wait for the instructions. The only requirement is that one must remain chaste and not marry without permission.
An Qing stayed at home for more than half a year before she received her only instruction so far - to get close to Liu Guantong and marry him.
An Qing did this perfectly. Perhaps, as a kite, she needs a sustenance too much. And Liu Guantong, who is not very old and dignified, is indeed more in line with her 'Ruyi Langjun' than the local Chinese young people she contacted before, and many British young people covered in hair!
Anyway, An Qing is really affectionate towards Liu Guantong now. It also made her even more frightened and scared.
An Qing knows Liu Guantong's identity, a ship designer, an elite figure sent by the Chinese government to study in the UK, An Qing is not an ignorant woman who doesn't know anything, she knows very well that it is difficult for a design elite like Liu Guantong not to be inferior to the design of warships after returning to China. Then those people above him want to get close to Liu Guantong by themselves, and their intentions to marry him are very clear.
His role is to push the people he loves into the fire pit! -- When she realized this, An Qing's inner fear, uneasiness, and apprehension were multiplied. She sometimes longs to go to a place where there are no outsiders with Liu Guantong and live a quiet two-person world. Or if Shangfeng forgets her, then he will be safe, there will be no external threats, no longer have to live in fear, and he will start again from now on and be a free and easy person.
But is it possible?
With her parents on one side and her lover on the other, An Qing's heart is about to split in half. But she can't show half of her appearance, which will not only make Liu Guantong feel different, but also make those above her realize that something is wrong. For her now, those British talents who hide in the shadows are the biggest threat.
How many times have I woken up in a night dream, covered in sweat; How many nightmares have been in my body, tears soaking the pillow.
For now, An Qing can only continue to lurk, waiting for the moment when people leave the UK and return to China. At that time, her life was secured. Whether it is to continue to obey orders or confess to Liu Guantong, at least life is no longer a puppet played arbitrarily in the hands of the British.
She told herself again and again that Liu Guantong really loved herself, and as long as she could not be sorry for him, he would definitely be able to protect herself. Therefore, she likes to listen to Liu Guantong every day, saying that she loves her and will love her and protect her for the rest of her life...... (To be continued......)
