This is a strange country. The multicultural architectural style makes every place here unique. The long winter makes pedestrians on the road still wear heavy down jackets to shuttle between tall buildings.
Street fast food restaurants are popular, and of course there are also many high-end restaurants, but the prices are much higher.
During this trip, Yu Huan declined the help offered by Qiao Wanshu and others, and found a local person herself and communicated with the other party in advance.
Picking up the child at the airport, renting a house, and reporting to school all went very smoothly.
She did this not because she suddenly wanted to be independent, she just thought that the fewer people she came into contact with, the harder it would be for Lu Songzhou to find her.
After everything was settled, she returned to her rented apartment and packed her belongings. She had just arrived and hadn't found a nanny to help with housework and cooking.
She was tired after working for a while, so she lay down on the chair, looked at the packed suitcase, and said worriedly: "Can you hang it in the closet yourself?"
She talked to herself for a while and felt a little drowsy, but the sound of luggage being dragged outside woke her up again.
By the way, the person who took her to see the house said that the room opposite hers was also rented out, and he would come to see the house at about the same time as her.
Yu Huan didn't take it to heart.
After a while, Yu Huan felt hungry and had not figured out how to order takeout here, so he had to go downstairs and use the exchanged banknotes to buy a plate of poutine and cheese fries and a bell pepper beef and egg sandwich.
Maybe she chose the wrong flavor, but the sandwich wasn't very tasty. The bread was too hard, the beef was too tough, and the sauce was too strong.
However, Yu Huan, who was hungry, had no choice but to bite the sandwich while walking, pulling it hard and chewing with a puffed face.
She was so focused on eating that she didn't notice the person standing at the top of the stairs. It was only when she suddenly heard a familiar chuckle that she opened her eyes wide and looked over as if she had seen a ghost.
"Is it unpalatable?" Lu Songzhou asked.
Yu Huan's eyes widened and she couldn't help but check herself up and down. "Did you install a locator on me?"
"No." Under Yu Huan's gaze, Lu Songzhou sighed lightly and said frankly, "I found out from the school."
Yes, when Yu Huan registered, he was asked for some information and filled it out casually. He didn't expect that Lu Songzhou would see it.
Isn't he busy?
Yu Huan went upstairs and slammed the door, suspecting that Qiao Miyu had lied to her.
But in the evening, when she went downstairs to throw away the garbage, she happened to see Lu Songzhou carrying a suitcase out.
She was stunned for a moment and didn't ask.
As if he knew what she was thinking, Lu Songzhou took the initiative to explain, "I have some things to do over there. I was confused when I knew you were going abroad. I can only feel at ease after coming here. I will be back as soon as I am done."
I'm busy as hell, and I'll be back within two days at the latest.
But he didn't say the last sentence, for fear that Yu Huan would laugh at him for being too sentimental.
·
As a newcomer, Yu Huan had many things to do and was so busy that he had no time to think about Lu Songzhou.
By the time she noticed that Lu Songzhou had returned, the aroma of food was coming from the next room.
By then, she had already learned how to order takeout from her classmates and had just received the creamy mushroom and spinach pasta from the deliveryman.
The packaging is very good and the appearance is good, but I don’t know if it’s because of the taste difference, but I always feel that it is not very appetizing, especially after smelling the mouth-watering aroma from the next room.
She swore that she just stood at the door for two extra seconds, but Lu Songzhou opened the door as if there was a surveillance camera installed, with a spatula in his hand.
"Want to come to dinner?" he asked.
Yu Huan would not fall for his trick and closed the door immediately.
At this time, she had actually found a cook, but although the cook tried hard to learn Chinese cuisine, the food she made tasted very different from what she wanted.
Yu Huan bit off the pasta on the plate, and she always felt that the aroma of the food next door was lingering at the tip of her nose, which was annoying.
After two days, she was still not convinced and went to buy some vegetables.
It’s just that she really didn’t have the skill of cooking, and the dark dishes she made made even the cooking aunties who were looking forward to Chinese food dared not try them.
She was devastated and stuffed all the ingredients she bought into the refrigerator in grief and anger. She never mentioned cooking again. She still ate the meals cooked by her aunt every day and occasionally ordered takeout.
However, although her life was not going well, she excelled in her studies.
The first work Yu Huan submitted since the start of the school year was well received by the professor. Although she didn't fully understand some of the compliments, the applause from the whole class was very intuitive.
Yu Huan was so happy and proud that he called Qiao Wanshu, Qiao Miyu and others one by one.
The joy brought by this also diluted her dissatisfaction with the food in a foreign country. She devoted more energy to studying and enthusiastically conceived the draft of her next assignment.
Of course, Qiao Wanshu couldn't just care about her studies. Whenever he talked about it, he would ask her how she ate and lived.
It wasn't that the Qiao family didn't want to help her, but Yu Huan had already refused once before, and now she felt a little embarrassed to ask again. Besides, she felt that her current life was not bad, so she didn't want to ask.
It was just that she had to tell a little lie occasionally. As she took out her key to open the door, she replied to Qiao Wanshu: "I had super delicious beef burritos for lunch. Don't worry about me..."
The door lock was a bit old and not easy to open. Yu Huan hung up the phone, put the phone in his pocket, fiddled with the lock with one hand and the key with the other, and finally opened it.
But when she was about to go in, the door on the other side suddenly opened. Lu Songzhou grabbed her arm, stopped her for a moment, and then let go.
He said, "I cooked, come and have some."
His eyes swept over her chin, which had obviously become much thinner in the past few days.
