Chapter 96 The Wind Blows Cool My Butt
Looking at the heavy snow outside, Su Wan wanted to say no but quickly swallowed it back.
She asked, "Will this bother you?"
Xu Ruichen shook his head. "It's okay. I happen to have some free time. It won't matter if I delay for a few days. Besides, I have some connections at the Army Academy in Heilongjiang Province. You may not be able to see him if you go like this, but you will definitely be able to see him if I go."
"Thank you for your help!"
Su Wan expressed gratitude.
"It's not a problem. It takes about four or five hours to drive from here to the Army Academy. Do you want to go now or tomorrow morning?"
"I'm fine with either. It depends on what time is convenient for you."
"Then let's go over after lunch. I've already had lunch prepared downstairs. We'll be there in the evening after lunch."
"OK, thanks!"
Su Wan packed up her things and went downstairs to have lunch together.
After a quick lunch, they set off for the Army Academy.
Xu Ruichen was driving an off-road vehicle, which was obviously very expensive.
This also made Su Wan guess that Xu Ruichen must be a rich and powerful person. After all, he just said lightly that he had connections, which must be because of his family.
But she didn't ask. After all, they were just casual acquaintances. Why should she know so much?
The driver opened the car door and respectfully called out to Xu Ruichen, "Leader, where are we going?"
"First, send Comrade Su Wan to the Army Academy to find someone."
"The road conditions over there might not be very good. We might need to bring some gas."
Gas stations in the 1980s were not as strict as they are in later generations. You could use a jerry can to buy a large barrel of gasoline and put it in the trunk of your car as a backup in case you got stuck on the road on a snowy day and ran out of gas.
"Then let's go to the gas station first, fill up the tank and buy another tank of gas."
When Xu Ruichen spoke to the driver, his tone was not as gentle as before. Even though he didn't speak very seriously, the aura of someone who had been in a high position for a long time could not be imitated.
Su Wan guessed that Xu Ruichen's identity was not ordinary, but when the driver called him leader, she was still stunned.
"Comrade Su Wan, please get in the car first."
Xu Ruichen opened the car door very gentlemanly and let Su Wan sit in the back seat, then carried Xu Chengyi up.
He himself sat in the passenger seat and did not intentionally sit next to Su Wan.
The driver put the luggage in the trunk, then glanced at Su Wan sitting in the back seat, started the engine and drove to the Army Academy.
The weather in Heilongjiang Province was bad, so the driver drove the car to a gas station. Looking at the vast expanse of white snow, he felt a little worried. But when he saw that there was still a lot of space in the trunk, he simply put an extra barrel of gasoline in the trunk.
The road conditions to the Army Academy were quite bad. Even though the off-road vehicle's tires were equipped with anti-skid chains, it still drove very slowly.
Fortunately, there were fewer cars in the 1980s, and in such bad weather conditions, even fewer people went out. He had an extremely difficult time driving on the road.
The driver's car has been used for several years. There are beads of sweat on his forehead while driving. I don't know if it's because of the heat or the urgency.
Xu Ruichen also knew that this road section was difficult to drive on, so he said,
"We're not in a hurry. Please drive slowly. This road is not very easy to travel on."
Su Wan looked out the window. The snowplows from the 1980s were not as efficient as those in later generations. Even if they tried very hard, they still couldn't clear enough snow.
The wheels of the off-road vehicle started moving directly on the snow covered with a layer of ice. After finally getting out of the city of Heilongjiang Province and heading into the mountains, the snow on the muddy road was shoveled even slower, so the off-road vehicle could only continue moving forward by pressing the snow.
Looking at the weather in Heilongjiang Province, Su Wan felt very uncomfortable.
Although people have always said that the ice and snow world of Heilongjiang Province is the most beautiful in the past, this blizzard still brought great inconvenience to the people.
The car stopped and started, and was still on the road until after eight o'clock in the evening.
During the trip, Xiao Chengyi went to the toilet, but Su Wan had to hold it in.
Seeing that the road ahead was really difficult to walk on, the driver was stuck on the road and said to Su Wan: "Comrade, we may be delayed tonight. There is a tree in front. If you want to go to the toilet, go over there, or just go right in front of the car. We won't look at it."
Su Wan was extremely embarrassed.
Xu Ruichen glanced at the white road ahead and said, "There's an umbrella in the car. If you feel it's inconvenient, just open it. It won't be a problem."
After saying that, he thoughtfully gave the umbrella to Su Wan.
People can't die from holding their urine.
Su Wan originally wanted to wait until she arrived at the Army Academy to go to the toilet, but in the current situation, it was unclear when she could arrive. She could only take the umbrella, thank Xu Ruichen, and then get out of the car to solve the problem.
The snow here is so thick that it has reached Su Wan's knees.
She couldn't walk too far, so she quickly took care of the meal nearby with an umbrella.
After taking off her pants, the biting cold made her feel uncomfortable. The joke in the book that the wind makes your butt cold was fully demonstrated at this moment.
Especially when you just urinate, it turns into ice.
Su Wan shivered, quickly pulled up his pants and headed for the car.
The air conditioning in the car made her feel extremely warm. After she finished, Xu Ruichen and the driver also went to finish their work. Only little Chengyi, who had finished his work, sat in the back seat and was already fast asleep.
After the driver came back, the car continued to move forward.
The road conditions were bad, and the car didn't arrive at the Army Academy until after 11:30 pm.
When Su Wan saw the Army Academy, her nose felt sore.
God knows, if she came to the Army Academy alone to look for someone, she might have been dropped off on the way.
Xu Ruichen got out of the car, nodded to the guard at the gate, and took out his ID. "I'm Xu Ruichen, looking for Zhou Mao from your college."
"The commander is inside. I'll let you in."
If they have connections, their cars can even be driven into the Army Academy.
Su Wan watched Xu Ruichen say something at the door, then got into the car and was allowed to pass.
At this moment, she was particularly grateful that she had been so talkative and saved little Chengyi. Now she has also received her own blessings.
After entering the Army Academy and finding a place to park the car, Xu Ruichen took her to an office.
The driver helped her carry all the bags.
Knowing that the person was looking for Chen Yuan, Zhou Mao quickly asked that person to find Chen Yuan.
About ten minutes later, Chen Yuan, wearing a military coat, appeared in front of Su Wan.
Su Wan was stunned, and so was Chen Yuan.
After being at the Army Academy for so long, he thought he had almost forgotten the fact that he had a wife.
Because he couldn't contact anyone at all and had no way to find Su Wan, he could only study hard in college and try not to think about anything else.
But when he saw the person he had been thinking about day and night in front of him, Chen Yuan opened his mouth and called out, "Wanwan..."
