A powerful country in scientific research

In the 1970s, there were no asphalt roads or even cement roads in the countryside. There was only a narrow dirt road that was bumpy and full of potholes.

Su Ran sat in the back and she felt like her butt was about to be broken into four pieces.

After a bumpy ride, just when Su Ran felt that his bones were about to fall apart, the two of them finally arrived at the post office in the county town.

He Cheng parked his bike and walked over to Su Ran.

Su Ran sighed, "Luckily there is a cushion on the back seat, otherwise my old bones really can't bear it. I didn't expect the team leader to be so thoughtful. There is a cushion on the back seat of the bicycle. It should be prepared for Li Yun." After all, the team leader only has this one daughter, so there is nothing wrong with her idea.

He Cheng, who was standing next to him, didn't say anything when he heard this, but his face turned red. He didn't have the courage to say that he had specially prepared this mat.

He Cheng coughed lightly and said, "I'll go make a phone call. You can go in here and buy stamps. Just give them to them after you've pasted them."

Su Ran nodded, "Okay."

He Cheng: "After you send it, go to the supply and marketing cooperative next door. I'll find you after I make the call." The supply and marketing cooperative in the county town is not very big, so it is easy to find someone.

Su Ran looked around and found that the supply and marketing cooperative was next to the post office.

She nodded, "Okay."

The two of them entered the post office together, but one went left and the other went right. He Cheng watched Su Ran start writing something with a pen, and then he walked to the window beside to make a phone call. He pressed a few numbers and heard a beep from the receiver.

After a while, a familiar man's voice came from the receiver.

"Hello? Hello, I'm Chen Changxing."

He Cheng: "Uncle, it's me."

Chen Changxing was very surprised to hear his nephew's voice. "You still remember to call me. How are you doing over there?"

He Cheng: "Not bad, uncle, how are you guys? Xiaoyi is about to start school."

Chen Changxing: "We are doing fine too. Xiaoyi starts school tomorrow. He was in a bad mood yesterday and said he didn't want to go. Have you seen Su Ran?"

He Cheng hummed, "Uncle, Su Ran's experimental field is here with us. Did you arrange it?"

Chen Changxing understood what his nephew meant, and he explained: "We gave her several places to choose from, and she took the initiative to choose your place."

He Cheng's mind moved, "Okay, I understand."

He Cheng: "Uncle, I also want to ask if Su Ran was okay in Hai City before? Has her family's problem been resolved?"

Chen Changxing was in a complicated mood. He thought his nephew called because he missed him, but he didn't expect it was still related to that little girl. It's impossible to keep a child when he grows up.

"It's okay, it's all resolved. Her mother and brother are here, and everything is fine. Besides, I'm here for them. Can I just watch them get bullied?"

He Cheng was relieved, "That's good, I'm fine, hang up now."

Chen Changxing: ...a little sad.

"Okay, the temperature is going to drop, remember to wear more clothes. Your aunt sent you something yesterday, it should arrive in a few days, think about picking it up, and write to us if you have anything."

He Cheng: "Okay, got it." Then he hung up the phone.

He felt relieved that the Su family was fine.

After hanging up the phone, He Cheng looked to the left and found that Su Ran was not there.

He pushed open the door, left the post office and walked towards the supply and marketing cooperative.

He had just come in and had not had time to look for Su Ran's back when a girl suddenly appeared in front of him and smiled at him strangely.

He Cheng looked at her and felt that she looked familiar, but he couldn't remember who she was. Never mind, who she was, it didn't matter.

He said in a deep voice: "Comrade, you are blocking the road."

Zhang Qingqing's face was stiff. She didn't recognize her? ?

She forced a smile and said, "He Zhiqing, I'm Zhang Qingqing, the daughter of Accountant Zhang. I've been in the crash course before."

He Cheng had some impression of it, and he nodded, "Comrade Zhang, hello."

Zhang Qingqing had a smile on her face, "He Zhiqing, you're here to buy something too."

He Cheng: "Yes, Comrade Zhang."

"He Zhiqing, I want to buy a book, do you have any recommendations?"

He Cheng: "You should find the salesperson, they know better."

Zhang Qingqing smiled awkwardly, "Okay, I'll ask later. He Zhiqing, did you come here by yourself? Do you want to go shopping with us?"

"No, I came here with my friends."

"Ok."

Zhang Qingqing secretly thought, this guy is really stubborn! If he wasn't handsome and well-off, she wouldn't be so attentive to him.

He Cheng: "Comrade Zhang, do you have anything else to say? If not, I'll leave first. My friend is waiting for me."

Zhang Qingqing laughed and said, "It's okay. Goodbye, He Zhiqing."

He Cheng nodded and left.

Su Ran, who was not far away, watched the whole process. This was the second time she saw the girl named Zhang Qingqing chatting up He Cheng. She didn't expect that He Cheng was still so popular here. Thinking of Wu Hongying's previous comment that He Cheng was a "heartthrob", Su Ran felt more and more uncomfortable the more she watched the scene. She felt like the strawberries she had grown were being coveted and picked by others.

This feeling made Su Ran frown. Could it be that she had a crush on this little boy? But wouldn't it be too strange? He Cheng had just become an adult. How could a sister who was almost 30 like this little brat?

After Su Ran prepared herself mentally, she breathed a sigh of relief, raised her head, and prepared to see where He Cheng was going.

The next moment, a handsome face appeared in her sight. The boy's deep dark eyes stared at her. Su Ran's heart began to beat involuntarily, as if it was about to jump out of her chest.

This moment seemed to freeze time, with only the gazes between He Cheng and her lingering in the air.

Su Ran was the first to react. She laughed dryly and said, "I am coming."

He Cheng hummed sullenly.

Su Ran felt that the atmosphere around her was a little too ambiguous. She cleared her throat and said, "He Zhiqing's popularity is as high as ever."

After hearing her words, He Cheng realized that Su Ran had seen everything just now.

He immediately came out of their romance, rubbed his brows, and said helplessly: "Stop joking with me."

Su Ran raised an eyebrow, "Why, this is a great thing that others can't even ask for, and you're not happy about it?"

He Cheng: "I hope not."

Su Ran: "That's easy."

He Cheng looked puzzled, "What do you mean?"

Su Ran: "Why don't you just say you have a partner, or someone you like?"

He Cheng thought of the eye contact just now, and said hot-headedly: "Then can I tell others that you are my girlfriend?"
