Chapter 699 New Ming New Youth (3rd update, please subscribe)
On the snow-covered sidewalk, a woman in a white fur coat was hurrying along with a happy look on her face. A pretty face was revealed under her white fox fur hat. Her long boots, exposed at the hem of her coat, made crisp sounds as she walked on the snow.
In a roadside shop, the young clerk who was just beginning to fall in love couldn't help but cast his eyes on her. Although he could only see her profile, he could still tell that she must be very beautiful.
"Hello, Mr. Sun!"
On the way to the mining company, there were always people who kept greeting Sun Mei, including parents of students and ordinary passers-by. In Daming, being a teacher is a very respected profession. After all, it is a "holy job" with a sacred mission. Even female teachers are respectfully addressed as "Mr.".
Of course, there are not many female teachers in Daming, and she is the only one in the entire Beihai City. This is why many people know her.
After all, female teachers are really rare. And women with both talent and beauty are even rarer!
Besides, she is the famous "Flower of the North", so of course many people know her.
"Hello."
"Hello……"
As she returned the greetings one by one, Sun Mei walked quickly, her face filled with genuine joy.
Xiao Liuzi actually came to Beihai.
How did he get here?
Could it be that he is here on business?
Although she had all kinds of questions in her mind, Sun Mei was mostly happy. She hadn't seen him for several years. Is he okay now?
Soon she arrived at the front desk of the mining company's hotel and learned the room number where he stayed.
After going up to the second floor and standing in front of the door, Sun Mei knocked on the door. Then a familiar yet strange voice came from behind the door.
“Who is it?”
She immediately said happily.
"Xiao Liuzi, it's me!"
The door opened.
The moment the door opened, Sun Mei was stunned. The boy from that year had grown into an adult.
"sister!"
The moment he saw Sun Mei, the moment that pure and beautiful face appeared in his eyes, Zhao Qihang went up to her and gave her a hug without thinking.
His hug made Sun Mei's cheeks slightly red, but she did not push him away, and even her head leaned on his shoulder involuntarily.
He is so tall!
And his chest seemed very thick and strong. A thought came to her mind: the little monkey back then has grown up now.
"Sister, I miss you so much."
After a hug, Zhao Qihang looked at Sun Mei and said.
"You're so smooth-talking. If you missed me, why didn't you write to me?"
Sun Mei said as she leaned over and looked into the room.
"Are you here on business? Just by yourself?"
"Sister, let's go inside and talk first."
Zhao Qihang said with a smile as he stepped aside to invite his sister into the room.
"Sister, I will stay here from now on. I found a job at Northern Mining. From now on, I will be closer to you!"
"What? You're here!"
Sun Mei looked at Zhao Qihang, who had grown into an adult, in surprise. When she was about to ask him why he came to work here, she suddenly seemed to understand and said with a smile.
"Welcome to this place. From now on, we can spend more time together. It's just right that you're here..."
As she spoke, she took off her coat, hung it on the hanger, and sat casually on the sofa.
"By the way, tell me quickly, what have you been busy with in the past few years? And how are they doing? Oh, didn't Xu Yun marry Erzi? Do you have a child now?"
As soon as she sat down, Sun Mei had countless questions to ask, while Zhao Qihang stared blankly at her sitting on the sofa. She looked so... beautiful in a thin sweater!
They talked for a long time that day and it seemed as if they had endless things to say. After all, they had not seen each other for four years. Not to mention in 1875, even in the 21st century, for people living in the northern and southern hemispheres respectively, separation could be a farewell forever.
And now, the two people who might have finally seen each other have met again, and naturally they have endless things to talk about.
In the following days, almost everyone in Beihai noticed that Mr. Sun from the National Primary School was shopping and eating with a man. Many people were curious about who this man was. After all, Mr. Sun had never been so close to that man before. This hurt many people.
Of course, Sun Mei ignored this. She just lived her life as usual, except that after work, she was used to eating alone, and now there was another person by her side. They went shopping, walked, and ate together, and then parted in front of her house.
"Qihang should be home by now."
Standing by the bedroom window, Sun Mei looked at the street lights outside the window and thought to herself. A few minutes ago, he sent her home and then went back to the hotel alone.
They should have arrived by now. She just looked out the window. Then, she sighed and walked to the table to prepare the lesson plan.
The wattage of the incandescent lamp was not high, and the bedroom was not small, so the light in the bedroom seemed a little dim. After preparing the lesson plan on the desk by the window for a while, Sun Mei, who was a little irritated, closed the book, stood up, and stretched in an unladylike manner.
Then she sat on the chair and looked at the group photo on the table. It was a photo of her and her brothers and sisters. Although they were not blood relatives, they had lived and studied together in school for so many years, so their relationship was naturally very deep. As the oldest, she took care of them like a sister. To her, they were her younger brothers and sisters.
Until four years ago, after graduating from Nanhua Normal School with the second highest score in the school, she could enter any primary school in Nanhua. However, after learning that there was not a single teacher who graduated from a normal school in the entire northern territory, she came here without hesitation. The reason why she came here was not only because of the "sacred mission" of a teacher, but the main reason was that she wanted to repay the royal family for raising her.
In the past four years, although her hard work has been praised by all parties, she is lonely deep down in her heart, after all, she has no relatives and friends here. Although there are many people pursuing her, she does not have much affection for them.
Half leaning on the chair, she stared out the dark window with a frown on her face. The tall figure quietly crept into her mind. The energetic face became clearer and clearer in her mind. The broad and solid shoulders might be the best place for a woman to rely on.
"Ah, what are you thinking about..."
Sun Mei was shocked by her own thoughts. She hurriedly lowered the curtains and left the windowsill. She sat on the chair and opened her notebook to continue writing the lesson plan. However, she was so confused that she couldn't write anything. The more she wanted to forget the figure, the clearer it became in her mind.
With her mind in a mess, she had no intention of continuing writing. She closed her notebook, turned off the light, and lay on the bed, closing her eyes to fall asleep early. However, even though her eyes were closed, her mind was once again active. His masculine image came alive in her mind again, and could not fade away for a long time.
"What's wrong with me?"
Sun Mei sat up from the bed in distress, buried her face in her hands, pouting and hugging her legs.
"He's your younger brother who's several years younger than you. Damn it, why are you always thinking about him? He's your younger brother!"
