A foreign city, dear you

For three or four days in a row, Cao Xueqian was worried and depressed. Of course, he didn't dare to reveal all this in front of Ye Lian.

Cao Xueqian felt a lot of pressure.

At work, Zhao Dongping, who had placed all his hopes on him, left; Jia Liwen ignored him and was a little arrogant; the two supervisors, especially the deputy supervisor, were aggressive towards him...

He felt like he was struggling.

The serf could stand up and sing, but it would be difficult for him to stand up.

Financially, the four elderly people in their hometown, their young son, and their sister-in-law studying at university all depended on him and Ye Lian's small salary. Now that Ye Lian has resigned, if he can't find a job for a while, he will have to rely on his salary alone.

In rural areas, the elderly and children can survive, but my sister-in-law Ye Wei's living expenses must not be cut off.

Moreover, it was Cao Xueqian who took the initiative to support Ye Wei in college. At first, Ye Wei was admitted to a very ordinary junior college. His father-in-law said that he would have no future if he went to such a university, so he decided not to apply.

Cao Xueqian was helpless because of his father-in-law's short-sightedness. As the eldest brother-in-law, he felt that it was his unshirkable responsibility. He said firmly to his father-in-law, "As long as you get admitted, no matter what kind of university it is, you should study. If you don't pay for it, I will pay for it."

Once a promise is made, it is difficult to follow it. If you want to bear this burden, you must bear it to the end. But now, he felt that he was in danger of being unable to fight.

Where are the opportunities? Where is the hope?

Cao Xueqian was at a loss.

*

In the endless confusion of the past few days, something gradually attracted his interest, creating a big vortex in his already lifeless mind.

That was a book, a book he had dreamed of for a long time!

However, this is someone else's book, and it is a book that it is difficult for him, Cao Xueqian, to own (even for a short period of time).

It's close, yet far away.

This "other" is Jia Liwen.

At first, Cao Xueqian found that Jia Liwen sometimes read a book in the office, but he didn't care. Every time Jia Liwen reads it, he puts the book in the drawer of his desk.

Later, Cao Xueqian saw Jia Liwen reading this book more times in the office, and he became curious. But I was just curious and didn't think about finding out.

Later, Zhao Dongping's departure made Cao Xueqian's hopes dashed and he had no way to rely on him. But it may also be because of this that he pays more attention to the things around him - just like a person trapped in a desperate situation, observing and exploring everywhere, trying to find an exit.

So what kind of book is it?

Cao Xueqian became more and more curious about the book and wanted to see its true appearance.

The opportunity really came.

The day after Zhao Dongping left, Jia Liwen was also reading a book. Suddenly, his apprentice came to him in a hurry. Seeing his apprentice's anxious look, Jia Liwen immediately got up and followed him out. This time, perhaps because he was in a hurry, he did not put the book in the drawer. The thick book lay quietly on the table for the first time.

God help me too!

Seeing Jia Liwen walking away, Cao Xueqian quickly slipped over.

The book is open. Cao Xueqian pressed the page with his hand and turned the book over.

On the cover, "Pro/ENGINEER 2000" is printed!

Cao Xueqian instantly felt his blood pressure rising.

A year ago, he heard about Proe when he was learning Autocad.

It has very powerful functions. It can be used excellently in mechanical design, simulation, processing, stress analysis, etc.

Cao Xueqian is a mechanical major and has a natural love for this aspect, so he is fascinated by Proe. But when I think about it, I have never been in contact with it. Textbooks are expensive and very rare, making them difficult to buy on the market.

Now, I see it here!

Cao Xueqian’s eyes lit up!

That look was like a martial arts practitioner seeing "Eighteen Palms of Subduing the Dragon"!

He turned the book over again and returned it to its original open position. With the right hand holding the pages at this position, the left hand rolls up the front part of the book, slightly staggering the thick pages, and then the left thumb quickly releases the pages one by one.

Cao Xueqian stared at the front part of the book quickly.

In a hurry, he couldn't see any specific content. But every word and picture in it showed him a magical world, which was infinitely attractive to him.

How Cao Xueqian wanted to take a closer look!

But he didn't dare. He was worried that Jiali Wen would come back at any time. He didn't even dare to turn over the back part. He pressed his right hand on the other side and quickly slipped back to his seat to relax his nervousness and let his blood pressure slowly drop.

Since then, that book has occupied Cao Xueqian's mind.
