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

Chapter 307 It was a pleasure to meet you all. Goodbye.

Song Yunqing was relieved.

After the incident like last time, security around Lawrence will definitely be strengthened. With him around, at least there's no need to worry about safety.

After lunch, Song Yunqing was heading to the salon to get her hair dyed when she ran into Yu Qingtian and Li Mingyue on her way to the parking lot.

"Hello, Song!" Yu Qingtian's eyes lit up and she took the initiative to step forward.

Li Mingyue had met Song Yunqing before and knew that she was Lu Youyou's roommate, so she greeted her politely and reservedly.

"Hello." Song Yunqing smiled and waved.

"Song, are you going out? Isn't Lu with you?" Li Mingyue asked casually.

"She went out on something and won't be back until tonight. Are you looking for her?"

"No, no, I was just asking," Li Mingyue quickly replied.

"Okay, I'll be going now."

Song Yunqing didn't drive her red pickup truck today. To match the granny gray color she would be wearing a few hours later, she specially chose another favorite, a silver-gray older model Mercedes.

As she exited the parking lot, she rolled down her car window and waved to the two people, saying, "See you."

"This car is so beautiful!" Yu Qingtian exclaimed repeatedly.

Li Mingyue watched silently, without saying a word.

She knew that Song Yunqing was a Chinese immigrant, but she didn't know that Song Yunqing was so rich.

"Is this her car?"

Yu Qingtian said, "Right? I saw her driving a red car last time, this one should be hers too?"

Li Mingyue was stunned: "There's another one?"

"Huh? Didn't I say that?" Yu Qingtian couldn't remember and waved her hand casually. "Who cares how many cars there are? Everyone in America has a car. I bet half of the students in our class drive to school."

How can this be the same?

Li Mingyue frantically tried to learn everything about America, reading every newspaper and magazine she could find. She could even recognize the trident logo with the ring.

Maybe tens of thousands, maybe hundreds of thousands, the suffix is ​​US dollars, she had never seen so much money in her life!
We're all Chinese, but just because our ancestors immigrated to the United States, our lives are so different?
Li Mingyue was unaware of Lu Youyou's relationship with the Song family. She only knew that Song Yunqing treated Lu Youyou very intimately, and that Lu Youyou was the one who initiated things between them.

Li Mingyue felt as if every inch of her body was screaming, "Why is the world so unfair? Why is my life so painful, while some people are born to enjoy happiness?"

If Song Yunqing changed her social class because of immigration, then what about Lu Youyou? Why did she do that?
From the special care he received from embassy staff when he first arrived in the United States, to his wealthy Chinese roommate, and then to the favor of a Stanford professor...

Why does all the good things happen to Lu Youyou, while she, despite her hard work, still ends up with nothing?
Li Mingyue fell silent again. Yu Qingtian, used to her compatriot's occasional silences, continued talking about how Song Yunqing had praised her English, and how Lu Youyou's newspaper reading method was remarkably effective...

Li Mingyue kept thinking about what Song Yunqing had said—

It's Wednesday today. Lu Youyou will be back tonight, so... Mr. Rockefeller should give her a ride, right?

After absentmindedly attending her afternoon classes and tasting the cold sandwich, Li Mingyue hesitated for a long time before finally deciding to stake out the place that evening.

She'd be too conspicuous on her own; she needed to be covered.

Li Mingyue dragged Yu Qingtian to the library to study all night. When it was nine o'clock in the evening, she said that she was tired of studying and wanted to take a walk. So they walked from the library to the vicinity of Lu Youyou's dormitory.

"I forgot to bring tea leaves. How about we go buy a cup of coffee? I'm afraid I won't be able to stay up tonight."

Yu Qingtian yawned. If it weren't for the fact that she had two midterm reports to submit, she wouldn't have stayed up all night!
"Okay, let's go buy it over there."

The shop Li Mingyue mentioned had to pass by Lu Youyou's dormitory, so going there and back would give her a little more time.

Yu Qingtian didn't care, as long as she could buy it. When she passed by the dormitory, she couldn't help but look up at it. "It's still better to live at school. If you're hungry or thirsty, you can go back to the dormitory. Unlike us, homestay families are not so convenient."

"How can we compare to Lu?" For some reason, Li Mingyue couldn't hold back today, and her voice carried a hint of sourness.

Yu Qingtian was quite frank: "Didn't we say before we came that the accommodation was arranged to provide us with a good language environment? Lu doesn't need to participate in language training, so what's so strange about staying in the dormitory?"

Li Mingyue didn't respond. She always felt that Lu Youyou had special privileges, but she couldn't control Lu Youyou. She could only do her best to change her own life.

After the two bought coffee, Li Mingyue still hadn't seen the person she was waiting for, so she had to slow down.

"Hurry up!" Yu Qingtian tugged at Li Mingyue, who was shivering from the cold wind as she came out without a coat.

"I'm thinking about how to revise my paper. I can think faster in an open space."

Yu Qingtian wanted to roll her eyes again. Why did you have to stay up all night?
The house where Li Mingyue was staying had a large courtyard. Wouldn't it be just as refreshing to move a chair and sit in the courtyard?
Yu Qingtian yawned again, wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes with the back of her hand. So sleepy, she quickly gulped down two mouthfuls of coffee!

"Hey, isn't that Lu?"

"Where?!" Yu Qingtian immediately stopped rubbing her eyes.

“Over there, the one getting out of the car, take a look, I’m not sure.”

Li Mingyue was certain of this, and she also recognized that Lawrence was driving.

"It seems so!" Yu Qingtian laughed, pulling Li Mingyue along, "Should we say hello?"

"Oh, that's not a good idea, there are other people next to Lu."

"Oh, what's there to be afraid of? It's just saying hello."

Yu Qingtian rushed over excitedly, with Li Mingyue following a step behind.

"Lu, what a coincidence!"

Lu Youyou was talking to Lawrence when she heard the voice and turned around.

"It's you guys, what a coincidence."

Lawrence looked at the two Asian faces approaching and asked Lu Youyou, "Are they your friends?"

"The international students who came together."

Upon hearing this, Lawrence extended his right hand and said, "Hello, I'm Lawrence."

Because Lu Youyou is from China, he felt more favorably toward Chinese people, and his smile became more sincere.

"Um, um... hello, my name is Yu Qingtian."

The usually carefree Yu Qingtian was a little embarrassed at this moment.

A foreigner in a suit shook hands with her. He was a bit thin, but tall and good-looking.

Li Mingyue had mentally prepared herself many times beforehand, and despite her heart pounding, she still managed to put on a perfectly appropriate smile.

"Hello, I am Li Mingyue."

Lawrence nodded politely, then released his grip.

Li Mingyue hoped the conversation could continue, but Lawrence had already turned to Lu Youyou.

"I reckon the professor will call us to a meeting tomorrow. Shall I pick you up this afternoon?"

"Yes, thank you for your help today."

"I told you there's no need to be so polite, I'll be going now." After saying that, Lawrence looked at the other two, "It was a pleasure to meet you, goodbye."
