After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, our workers came back one after another, and the long-lost hot scene began on the construction site again.

After the regular meeting on Monday, Valery told me that he wanted me to go on a business trip to Moscow for a few days.

The situation in Beijing needs to be reported to Roman in detail, and not only that, but I also need to pick up some documents back and forth. At the same time, it is necessary to rush over a batch of equipment related to the transformation of weak current that is needed here in Moscow, and they will soon be used on the construction site.

Valery said that he was supposed to go there himself, but the work here really did not require him for a day, and the trip to Moscow took as little as five or six days and at most as a week or more. Even Chief Engineer Yepgeni couldn't leave for so long!

I know that, judging from the current situation, I am the most useless person on the construction site today, and it is my duty to warm myself up on this errand errand.

At the end of February, Beijing was already warm and cold, but Moscow was still a harsh winter.

Moscow, after a half-year absence, was no stranger to me. I think I'm still familiar with Moscow compared to Beijing.

I arrived in Moscow on Sunday's flight, and Roman's driver took me to a hotel near their group.

Roman's drivers are very young, and like many of the Russian bosses I know, they are always very polite and attentive to their customers.

Actually, we're old acquaintances!

I remember the first time I went on a business trip to Shanghai with Roman, it was he and Daniel who came to pick me up.

He told me that Roman would not be able to get back to Moscow until Monday night, and he told me to get some rest first, and I was jet lag.

In the comfort of the hotel, I took a hot shower and forced myself to sleep as much as possible to correct the jet lag.

On Tuesday morning, having breakfast in the hotel, I felt that my biological clock had adapted to the rhythm of Moscow!

I packed up and prepared to go to see Roman, but he never called, and it seemed that he had been delayed by something.

I had nothing to do, I wandered the streets of Moscow.

Breathing in the fresh and cold air of Moscow again, stepping on the snow under my feet and looking at the discount advertisements in the shop windows, I suddenly felt as if I had never left here......

Seeing the large number of fresh and colorful bouquets in the flower booth, as well as the eye-catching sign for February 14, I suddenly realized that today is Valentine's Day!

I smiled in my heart: No wonder Roman didn't care about me today!

I remembered the scene of Valentine's Day a few years ago, when Roman left in a hurry, hehe...... So, I can be free again today! Who said Valentine's Day was bad? I remembered what I said to Andre on Valentine's Day......

I went back to the hotel to calculate the jet lag, and I felt that Andrei must have gotten up at this time.

What is he doing? It's Tuesday, is he at work, or is he on holiday? With whom did he celebrate the feast? By the way, did he call me on my mobile phone to China? I don't roam internationally, and I basically disable Chinese calls in Moscow.

Thinking of this, I dialed Andrei's mobile phone from the hotel's phone!

——“hello！ I heard Andrei reply in English

- "It's me, dear," I said with a smile in Russian

- "Huh? Linna? How is the Russian phone number I am showing here? I thought it was that customer?"

- "Do you have a Russian client?" I asked

- "Hmm! Not yet, but I'd love to develop a few Russian clients. By the way, Linna, why did you remember to call me today? You never called me, I didn't even know your call would show up as a Russian number! Andrei said happily

- "I think you might be busy today!" By the way, I remind you to pay more attention to your body, and hee-hee...... "I'm joking."

- "What festival?" Andrei asked, puzzled.

- "What? Don't you really know what day it is?" I said

- "It's Tuesday," Andrei replied.

The Russian word for day and day of the week is the same thing, so Andrei didn't understand my question for a while.

- "Today is February 14th! I congratulate you on Happy Holidays! I said

- "Oh? I didn't even know it was Valentine's Day! Andre said, at this time, I seemed to hear someone on the other end of the phone ask Andre what to say, he didn't put down the phone, I heard in English - "How many people are coming?" …… Arrange them in the conference room, and I'll be there at ten o'clock...... By the way, call Bill to come to the meeting too! ”

- "Honey, I didn't know you were busy! Excuse me. I said and looked at my watch, and it was eighteen o'clock in five minutes, which was ten o'clock in the morning New York time. It seems that Andrei is really busy, so I don't want to make a mess

- "Honey, I didn't know it was Valentine's Day, if you hadn't called, I really forgot about it, you wouldn't blame me, would you?" Happy holidays, I'll call you later, you can blame me for disturbing your sleep. Andrei said

- "Alright, you go to the meeting, dear, I'm satisfied to hear your voice, I'll hang up" I laughed and hung up.

I thought to myself, this Andrei didn't even figure out where I was! Anyway, if I hadn't come to Moscow, I might have ignored this dispensable Valentine's Day.

I think of a song called "Valentine's Day Without a Valentine". At this moment, do I have or do I have no lover?

In fact, over the years, due to the busyness of work and the turbulence of life, I have become less and less aware of the New Year's Festival!

People have their own rhythm of joy and sorrow, and maybe this is not so consistent with those prescribed festivals.

However, festivals are really necessary for human beings. Humans need a sense of ritual, otherwise, everything will really be too casual! Think about it, everyone is busy with their own things, and if it weren't for the mandatory regulations, maybe people would never have had the opportunity to share the joy together! The joy of empathy is the realm that the joy of the individual can never reach. Perhaps that's why smart people want to make festivals!
