1970s: Hot wife accompanies the army, cold-faced rough man is not easy to tease

Chapter 267 Is it going to become a left-behind child?

At Zhang Qun's insistence, Shen Fang suppressed her desire to secretly meet with Lu Youyou.

Every night before bed, she prayed to all the gods and Buddhas, even Marx and Engels. After waiting for more than half a month, the Agricultural University finally made a decision, and Zhang Qun's name was prominently listed.

Zhang Qun learned from his mentor that he was able to stand out from several candidates thanks to his outstanding performance in the project team.

As for how to determine outstanding performance, Lu Youyou's report accounted for a considerable proportion.

When Shen Fang found out, she didn't know what to say, mainly because she was a little embarrassed.

"Do you think she overheard what we said that day?"

Zhang Qun didn't know either: "Let's just pretend we heard it. We have to be indebted to her for this."

"Should we thank her and treat her to a meal?"

Zhang Qun shook his head without even thinking.

"Given Comrade Lu's character, she probably won't go to dinner. Let her family send some more local specialties over. There's no need to say thank you; just treat it as normal business dealings. It's not something to be done right now. I'll find another opportunity to thank her later."

Zhang Qun's perspective is very clear: Lu Youyou is a pragmatic person and may not care much for formal expressions of gratitude.

He will do more of the project team's work in the future. If there are opportunities to work together again in the future, he will give his all. That will be much more useful than a meal or two.

Lu Youyou quickly noticed Zhang Qun's change.

Although he has always been diligent, he is even more so now.

He gets up earlier than the chickens and goes to bed later than the dogs. If the lab door weren't locked at night, he would have slept inside with his bedding.

When Lu Youyou finished her experiment that day, it was already dark outside. She had finished packing up and was ready to leave, but Zhang Qun was still writing furiously.

"Aren't you leaving yet?" Lu Youyou asked.

Zhang Qun smiled and said, "Comrade Lu, please go ahead without worry. I'm almost done too. I'll lock the door in a bit."

Lu Youyou nodded: "Okay, then don't stay out too late."

"Yes, I know."

The two never discussed the issue of the quota, but the clever Lu Youyou had already understood Zhang Qun's "gratitude".

It was an unexpected stroke of luck, but Lu Fang and Zhang Qun are both rare talents, and who knows, there might be a chance to recruit them in the future.

As Lu Youyou was thinking, she went downstairs and saw Gu Qingye who had come to pick her up.

"Wait for a long time?"

"No, I just arrived."

Lu Youyou noticed the mosquito bites on the back of his hand and knew he must have arrived a long time ago.

Although her departure is scheduled for next year, Gu Qingye has been unusually clingy during this time, almost becoming her human accessory.

As long as he's home, he'll definitely drop me off in the morning and pick me up in the evening. He used to stay at the base two or three days a week, but now he'll come back even if it means traveling at night.

Needless to say, at home, they follow me everywhere I go, even during my shower time.

The water in the bathtub often went from hot to cold, making a mess all over the floor.

She walked in and came out sideways; she couldn't walk because her legs were too weak, so Gu Qingye had to carry her.

The king did not stop holding court from then on, but she did indulge in nightly revelry.

Medicinal diets that nourish qi and kidneys have made a comeback. Not only is Gu Qingye given to them, but she also has to drink them. After a lot of sexual activity, women also need to replenish their energy.

Although she was not pregnant, she noticeably increased the number of times she had to support her lower back while walking.

Occasionally, when they went to eat at Beichizi, Lin Nanxing would look at her with a smiling gaze, and Lu Youyou could only stubbornly endure it with her increasingly thick skin, and then retaliate twice as hard at night.

Of course, retaliation usually yields the opposite result.

She could pinch his hard chest and abs without feeling any pain or itch, but once Gu Qingye started to "resist," she could only whimper and moan, then go limp. They say women are made of water, but as Gu Qingye's learning ability grew stronger, she became made of a vast ocean.

Life is both tough and joyful!

Little Grey is the one who has the most objection to this conjoined twins behavior.

It reluctantly accepted that Gu Qingye had become one of its guardians, but its inherent dislike for him remained. The annoying boy clung to his mother, taking up its happy time with his mother. How could it tolerate this?

Gu Qingye has to outwit and outmaneuver it every night to keep the furry ball out of the bedroom and to lock the doors and windows from the inside, otherwise the troublemaker will find a way to keep him from having any peace.

If he couldn't break in at night, he would definitely start cursing in the morning, keeping his cursing confined to a volume that only Gu Qingye could hear, so as not to disturb his mother.

"Gaga gaga gaga gaga, coo coo, gaga gaga gaga gaga!!"

Little Grey Grey scolded fiercely and harshly, and when he got angry, he would even bark like a dog.

Believe it or not, it inherited the true essence of the Wind Chaser, and its imitation is remarkably lifelike.

Gu Qingye felt helpless, but he absolutely could not give up the benefits.

He walked up to the fluffy ball with its darting eyes, ready to have a good talk with it.

Little Grey stayed still, pondering how to slap the annoying guy silently.

Given Gu Qingye's agility, its slap plan had failed many times, but it was not discouraged; it could simply start over.

however……

"I just can't bear to part with her."

Little Grey: What's wrong with you?
"Your mother is going abroad soon, and we won't be able to see each other for a long time, so Comrade Lu Huihui, can you understand?"

Little Grey: !! !! ⊙▽⊙!! !!

What the hell are you doing?!

Forgive an owl for not understanding the meaning of "going abroad," as the word has never appeared in its life.

But half of its bristling fur had already flattened, and Little Grey realized with a keen sense that it probably wasn't anything good.

Knowing that it was intelligent, Gu Qingye took a world map from the study and pointed to the "rooster" on it.

“We’re here now.” Then he traced his index finger across the Pacific Ocean to the right of the map, pointing to the United States. “Your mother will be here next year.”

Little Grey blinked its eyes, trying to hide the panic in them.

It probably understood that Mom was going on a long trip next year?
It glanced down at the map, placed its paws on it, and paced back and forth between the "rooster" and the rectangle on the right several times.

It doesn't seem that far?

Gu Qingye had also spent several years with Little Grey and understood its meaning. He solemnly gave the owl a lesson, explaining what a scale was.

Little Grey's expression cracked inch by inch.

Although I still don't quite understand, it sounds like it's extremely, extremely, extremely far away!
Is it going to become a left-behind child?

No longer caring about the unresolved feud between man and eagle, it hopped onto Gu Qingye's lap, spread its wings, pointed first at the bedroom door, then at the large square on the right side of the map.

Little Grey: Are you sure Mommy is going there?
Gu Qingye nodded calmly. He also didn't want to accept it, but it was the truth.

"Assuming a straight-line distance of 10000 kilometers, you would need to fly non-stop for at least 250 hours at the fastest speed to get there."

Little Grey couldn't believe it, staring intently at the map, which wasn't even as long as its wings.

The mother sat in the metal box and flew over, but it couldn't even smell her scent, and if it couldn't smell her scent, it couldn't find her.

It knew that blue represented the sea, and there might not be a place to land in the sea. It would take more than ten days to fly there!

The entire eagle collapsed instantly. Good heavens, what are we going to do?!
