Chapter 18: First Encounter

At this time, Lu Yuxian was standing solemnly on the second floor of a steel structure board house. It was pouring rain outside, and he was standing in the corridor on the second floor, with the help of the rain canopy on his head to prevent the rain from falling directly, but there were still sporadic rains splashing on him. But he didn't go into the house to hide from the rain, but looked at the devastated site with a sad face.

This is the camp of a railway construction team in a Central Asian country, and although the railroad tracks and concrete sleepers are stacked in a regular row, the scattered machinery and irregular gravel decorate the camp like ruins.

"This ghost weather, it's really tormenting people's hearts!" He occasionally looked up at the falling jet of water and muttered curses.

He looks to be in his fifties, but his actual age is similar to that of Xing Hongming and Shen Jinghao, and they are both top students of Professor Ye's class of 94. It's all because of the years of tempering that he seems so vicissitudes.

In this campsite, in addition to the second-floor slab house, there are also some slab houses, even tents.

It's much more lively than the little second floor.

It turned out that it was a dormitory and canteen for ordinary workers. This kind of weather makes them very excited, because they can not go to work, which is in stark contrast to Lu Yuxian's urgent mood.

In addition to the Chinese construction workers, there were also many locally hired workers or technicians, who gathered together in groups of three or five, playing cards and talking loudly about women. It was very pleasant. Of course, there are also workers who lie quietly on the two-story bed, holding a smartphone on their backs, and chatting with relatives or close friends in China through QQ or WeChat.

Lu Yuxian, as the general person in charge of the construction of this section of the railway, is far less free and easy than those people. He frowned, staring at the ghost weather outside. Perhaps, in this world, time is the most precious to him, but such a rainy day consumes time in vain, which is equivalent to tearing his heart.

橐橐橐!

A pair of small rain boots tapped on the floor of the corridor on the second floor, and gradually approached the sculpture-like him—

When the camera shifted to the rain boots, I found that the owner of the rain boots was a pretty woman. She was wearing a clean denim suit, with long hair in a high coil, and an unopened umbrella in her hand, which looked very heroic.

Looking at her age, she seems to be much younger than Lu Yuxian, almost the same as Jiang Wanrong. But her actual age is only one year younger than Lu Yuxian, and she is an alumnus of the same class as Lu Yuxian in college, and now her wife, Liu Ying.

Since Liu Ying is in the same major as Lu Yuxian, she is naturally familiar with this project, and has become her husband's right-hand man. In the past 20 years, they have been side by side and have fought in many railway projects at home and abroad.

He could already hear the crisp footsteps on his side, and knew that it was his wife walking down the hallway, but his eyes only blinked slightly, but he didn't move them.

Liu Ying stood next to him and looked out side by side with him.

"Yu Xian, since God has let us rest, you should also take a rest, if you always let your nerves tense, it will break you." Liu Ying inserted one of her small hands into Lu Yuxian's elbow and persuaded softly.

He heard his wife's soft and sweet voice like a small bridge and flowing water, and then turned his kind gaze to his wife's beautiful face, and when he saw an unsociable strand of hair stuck to her fair forehead, he subconsciously reached out to help her comb it.

Liu Ying's heart suddenly flowed through a warmth, as if she was like a young girl, staring at her husband affectionately.

He noticed the umbrella in his wife's hand, so he asked curiously, "Yingzi, are you going out?" ”

Liu Ying nodded: "Well, I want to take advantage of the shutdown of the project to go out and buy some daily necessities." ”

He was a little uneasy: "On this rainy day, can you go out alone as a woman?" ”

Liu Yingyan smiled: "Don't worry." The people here are very friendly to us Chinese, and they know that we are helping them build the country and will not have any evil intentions. Haven't you heard the locals call us 'angels'? ”

He was still not at ease: "Or, I'll go out with you?" ”

The wife immediately nodded excitedly: "It would be great if you could go out with me for a walk." ”

His wife's words made him extremely embarrassed, and since he came to this country, he has hardly accompanied his wife to go out for a walk. This is a far cry from his promise to pursue his wife. This reminded him of when he first met his wife in college-

When Lu Yuxian was in college, although he was a freshman in the same class as Liu Ying, he was not in the same class, so he didn't notice this girl among the girls at first.

One weekend, he wanted to go out to read a book, and before going out to see that the weather seemed to be changing, he borrowed the umbrella of his roommate in the dormitory to go out with a life attitude of 'full of dry food and umbrellas'.

When he was reading books about engineering in the bookstore, he happened to meet Liu Ying.

Liu Ying's family background is good, which is directly reflected in the clothing, because she left school, she was wearing a white dress at the time, and with her beauty, it seems to be like Snow White, attracting the attention of other readers.

Even Lu Yuxian's eyes lit up at that time. He didn't know that this girl was his alumnus, but when he saw that the book she was reading was the same book as the one he was going to read, he couldn't help but take the initiative to talk: "What do you do, why do you read this kind of engineering book?" ”

Liu Ying, who was concentrating on reading, looked up and saw that Lu Yuxian was standing in front of her with a jade tree in the wind, holding the same book as her in his hand, so he didn't think he hated it, but smiled and replied: "I'm still a student, this kind of book is my major, I want to know about it first." ”

Lu Yuxian's eyes lit up: "You are studying at Jiaotong University in this city, right?" ”

Liu Ying nodded: "Well, are you too?" ”

"Haha, what a coincidence. We're still classmates. ”

Liu Ying looked at him carefully: "I see that you are quite familiar, may I ask which class you are from?" ”

"I'm a new class, studying in Class 3 of the Engineering Department."

"Ahhh I am also a freshman and am in Class 2 of the Engineering Department. ”

Lu Yuxian patted his head: "Hey, what a coincidence." We almost became classmates. ”

Liu Yingxiu frowned slightly, and hurriedly made a quiet gesture to him.

He also realized that his voice was a little louder, so he smiled embarrassedly.

The two of them then had further communication, and of course, they needed to keep their voices down in this public setting.

For Lu Yuxian, who is in adolescence, the psychological turmoil of the exploration of the opposite sex is enough to make him extremely interested in the girl in front of him. Although he was holding a book in his hand at the time, what he was really reading was the girl next to him.

When it was close to noon, Liu Ying's eyes were a little tired, so he closed the book and said to him, who suddenly looked away from him: "I should go back." Do you want to watch it for a while? ”

His mind was not in the book in his hand at all, and when he saw that the girl he liked was leaving, he hurriedly took the initiative to pick up the book in Liu Ying's hand and put it back together with his own.

"It's almost noon, isn't it? It's time for me to go back to school. Let's just go together. ”

Liu Ying is a very reserved girl, and seeing that this boy looks like a master of love, she smiled and declined: "I'm sorry, I don't want to go back to school right now, since I'm looking forward to a weekend, I want to walk outside for a while." ”

He couldn't help but be stunned: "This is not the city center, what is there to wander around?" ”

"Hehe, my hobby is that I like to go shopping, even if it's a quiet street, it doesn't matter."

Although he was reluctant to part with the girl he had just met, he had no reason to pester others, so he had to say stupidly: "Okay then." I go back to school and you continue to play outside, but be safe. ”

Liu Ying nodded: "Well, thank you for the reminder." ”

He accompanied her to the outside of the bookstore, muttering secretly in his heart: "I hope this girl can walk in the direction of the school, and I can take the opportunity to walk with her for a while." ”

Maybe God favored him in the dark, and when they walked out of the door of the bookstore, Liu Ying was dumbfounded. It turned out that it was drizzling outside. Wearing only a thin dress, she had to hug her arms and look away.
