Chapter 54: Anxiety in a Foreign Land (1/2)



Bai Keyan hung up the phone with his sister, and his steps back became very heavy.

At the dormitory door, Bai Keyan was stopped by his two roommates.

There was faint sobbing coming from the room. Bai Keyan asked, "What's wrong? Who is crying in there?"

One of them explained: "It's Han Dong. Before he came to the base, his hometown introduced him to a girl. They met a few times and confirmed their relationship. Unexpectedly, Han received a letter from the girl the next day. The girl said that the two were not suitable and unilaterally announced their breakup!"

"Why do we need to break up?"

"The distance is too far, and there is a lack of emotion!"

Another roommate said, "In our line of work, we can't look at things we shouldn't look at, we can't ask things we shouldn't ask, and we can't say or write anything about private phone calls, notes, and correspondence. Our family and friends don't know what we're doing. After a long time, it's inevitable that suspicion and resentment will arise between us. If we meet someone better, won't the girl run away with him?"

Although he said it without intention, he listened to it with intention, and Bai Keyan's heart was in suspense again.

His comrade-in-arms and roommate, Han Zhizhi, has been in low spirits since receiving the letter from home and has not eaten or drunk anything for the whole day.

He is now lying on the bed, looking so pitiful.

Bai Keyan couldn't bear to watch it anymore, so he took out his treasured can of beef and pushed his comrade's shoulder.

"Get up and eat something first. When you have enough energy, ask the professor for leave. Go to Fenghuang Town. The supply and marketing department there doesn't have a phone. Call the other party and explain the misunderstanding."

"It's no use." Han Dong sobbed. "Even after the call was connected, Xiaoli would still ask me where I was, what I was doing, and when I would be home. I couldn't say anything, it would only make her angrier!"

“…”

At this moment, Bai Keyan suddenly felt fortunate.

His smile is so smart and considerate. With just a few words, she guessed the nature of his work. She was so considerate and understanding of him.

However, can a long-distance relationship, where you can’t be together day and night, really overcome the passage of time and distance?

"Keyan, your wife is still the best!"

Han Dong bit into a piece of beef jerky and said enviously, "Your wife loves you so much and sends you so many things every month. Most importantly, you are already married and have legal procedures. Even if you want a divorce, she will have to go through the formalities in person with you."

Bai Keyan took back the can coldly: "Thank you, we are fine and will never get divorced."

"Hey, how can you talk like that!" The roommate knocked on Han Dong's head, "Our Ke Yan is handsome and his work is outstanding. Many girls in the base are secretly asking about his family background. How depressed is my sister-in-law to divorce me?"

Bai Keyan felt inexplicably heartbroken.

"That's right, worrying about nothing." Another one looked at the time and said hurriedly, "Let's go get some food. If we're any later, the cafeteria will be closed."

Bai Keyan finally understood why Han Dong lost his appetite because of a letter.

"You guys go first... I'm not hungry."

.

The next day, the news that Han Zhizhi had broken up unilaterally with his partner spread like wildfire in the computer science department.

Many young men who have been single since birth came over, in the name of comforting their senior brothers, but in fact they wanted to find out gossip.

Only the old professors at the base feel sorry for the students.

The old professor applied to the organization to arrange for married colleagues with partners to have the opportunity to make phone calls once a month, each for three minutes.

Even if you can't say anything, it is still necessary to report your safety, express your feelings, and prove that the person is still alive.

Is this a blessing in disguise?

The person Bai Keyan misses the most is only his Xiaoxiao.

Unfortunately, he didn't know that Xiao Jiahua had gone home for vacation. He thought his wife was still working as the director of the town supply and marketing company.

Considering that daytime was working time, he called the town supply and marketing department.

The person who answered the phone was Liang Gaofeng.

Bai Keyan tensed up when he heard just one word "Hello".

"Liang Zhiqing, I'm looking for my wife Xiao Jiahua. Please let her answer the phone."

"Your lover?"

Liang Gaofeng realized that the person who called was Xiao Jiahua's husband.

He sneered: "Bai Xiaozhi, if you really love Xiaoxiao, how could you not know that she no longer works in the supply and marketing department?"
