Quini Tuedi invited Professor Yuan to his home, but Professor Yuan shook his head and said, "We've already booked a room at a guesthouse near the bus station. We're going to Shihezi tomorrow."
Hotbuy asked curiously, "What are you going to Shihezi for?"
Professor Yuan said with a smile, "We went there for a study tour at the invitation of the 152nd Construction Regiment in Shihezi."
HotSell looked at QianDuoDuo and asked, "Are you still a student?"
Qian Duoduo nodded: "I am currently a graduate student, studying under a professor."
Hot Selling nodded without saying anything more. Watching Professor Yuan and his group leave, Quini Tu Eddie smiled and said, "What? You've taken a fancy to that little girl?"
Remaiti said, "It's only been the second time we've met. It's not that we're not attracted to each other, but I just think she's quite special."
Quini Tuedi laughed and said, "This young lady is very generous and highly educated. It all depends on your charm. If you can marry her, our family's education level will be significantly higher!"
Remaiti shook his head and said, "No, she is Han Chinese. There are differences between us."
On this point, Quini Tuaidi does not object. They have their own religious beliefs and many customs that Han people cannot follow. Even if they overcome difficulties and obstacles, true love is invincible, but it cannot withstand the test of time!
Qian Duoduo and the others returned to the guesthouse and went straight to sleep. However, according to Qian Duoduo's own biological clock, when she woke up at 6:30 in the morning, it was already bright. She smiled and walked to the window, opened it, and a cool breeze blew in. She quickly closed the window. Wait, it's summer here too, how come the temperature is about the same as in Harbin? This cool breeze in the morning is quite refreshing!
She walked out of her room, picked up her toiletries bag, and planned to go to the public restroom to wash her face. She happened to run into Liang Kun, who also came out. He saw Qian Duoduo, nodded, and then walked over.
Qian Duoduo didn't care. She had a boyfriend who was much better than this guy. But then she thought about it and realized that she had been away for several months and had hardly contacted him at all. Was that not a good thing?
After washing up, she went to the front desk of the guesthouse on the first floor and saw a very pretty young girl sitting there. She recognized her immediately—it was the girl she had danced with the night before. After their eyes met, the girl smiled and said, "Hello, is there anything I can help you with?"
Qian Duoduo smiled and asked, "Can I make calls from other provinces using the phone here?"
Guli shook her head and said, "Our phone can only make calls within Urumqi. If you want to call other provinces, you have to go to the municipal government or the post office."
Qian Duoduo nodded and said, "Okay, thank you! Is it far from the post office?"
Guli said, "It's a bit far."
Qian Duoduo thought for a moment, then realized she needed to take a bus to Shihezi around 10 a.m. today, and asked, "Is there a bus that goes to the post office?"
Guli said, "Yes, but the bus ride is quite long. It takes more than 40 minutes to get to the post office, and an hour and a half round trip."
This length of time immediately deterred Qian Duoduo. It takes so long to travel back and forth on the bus. Is Urumqi really that big?
Later, I chatted with Guli and learned that the post office was actually quite far from here, but the bus traveled very slowly, especially since some roads were in poor condition, which was the main reason for the long journey.
Qian Duoduo fell silent. No wonder they say, "To get rich, build roads first." There's a reason for that! Especially after getting on the bus to Shihezi, Qian Duoduo once again agreed with this statement. The ride was so bumpy, it felt like rolling in a hoop, and every now and then her bottom would fly up. Qian Duoduo was really on the verge of tears. She wanted to say, "With such a bumpy road, can't they add some foam to the seats?"
After three hours of bumpy travel, we finally saw rows of houses in the distance, and the ticket seller was calling out, "Shihezi, Shihezi."
After everyone got off the bus, Professor Yuan looked at the distant mountains and sighed, "If we keep bumping around like this, my old bones are really going to break."
Qian Duoduo, being the youngest in the group, noticed a man in military green uniform holding a sign with Professor Yuan's name on it. She turned to Professor Yuan and said, "Professor, that soldier over there is here to pick us up."
Upon hearing this, Professor Yuan glanced at the soldiers and said, "Let's go ask them!"
Several people walked over, and Yu Jing asked first, "Hello, comrade, are you here to pick up Professor Yuan Linong?"
Lu Jinghuai smiled and said, "Hello, I'm here to pick up Professor Yuan Linong. I'm Lu Jinghuai, the battalion commander of the 2nd Battalion of the 152nd Regiment."
Upon hearing the name, Qian Duoduo suddenly felt it was familiar and asked, "Lu Ying, where is your hometown?"
Lu Jinghuai was taken aback, but still answered, "Huainan City, Anhui Province."
Qian Duoduo nodded. This place seemed familiar; it appeared that some of the people she knew lived here.
She suddenly opened her eyes wide and began to look Lu Jinghuai up and down.
Qian Duoduo's scanning gaze at Lu Jinghuai had successfully attracted everyone's attention. Professor Yuan naturally knew that his elementary school student was not the type to be fickle, so it must be Lu Jinghuai's problem. However, Professor Yuan was not one to meddle, so he simply stayed silently by Lu Jinghuai's side.
Lu Jinghuai, with his soldier's intuition, knew that Qian Duoduo's gaze was fixed on him. He wondered if there was something wrong with this girl. Could it be that she had taken a liking to him? He was a man with a girlfriend, and he was going back to get married in two months, so he definitely wouldn't accept the feelings of another girl.
