Wen Qin's cooking tends to be light in flavor, and she was worried that Mr. He would not be able to get used to it. Unexpectedly, Mr. He ate it with gusto and praised it while eating.

"The girl's cooking skills are really good."

When Wen Qin finished packing, she found that it was dark outside. Then she remembered that she had not told Jie Mingxia that she was going out today.

He said goodbye to Mr. He quickly and went out in a hurry. As a result, he bumped into an acquaintance as he was pushing his bicycle out of the door.

"professor?"

"Hmm? Wenqin?" The professor looked at the door Wenqin came out of in surprise. "Why are you here?"

Wen Qin glanced at the wine in the professor's hand, then glanced at the place where she came out, and an idea flashed in her mind: "Professor, are you here to see Mr. He?"

The professor looked at Wen Qin meaningfully: "Do you know Lao He?"

Wen Qin shook her head: "This is the first time we meet today. My roommates Qi Hong and Yan Mengjuan are Mr. He's students in the countryside. They wrote to me and asked me to come and see Mr. He."

The professor's face was even more surprised: "Those two girls are my students? No wonder."

Although Wen Qin was curious about the relationship between the professor and Mr. He, she was more afraid that Jie Mingxia would worry, so she could only say goodbye to the professor and go home. Naturally, she did not notice that the professor stared at her back for a long time before entering Mr. He's house.

Fortunately, He's home was not far from their courtyard. Seeing that there was still no light in the house, he knew that Jie Mingxia had not come back today. He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He quickly heated up the stove and started cooking dinner. As a result, with a click, the lights went out.

power cut.

Power outages were a very common occurrence in this era, so Wen Qin didn't care. She hung up the emergency light and prepared to continue cooking dinner when someone knocked on the door.

Wen Qin turned off the emergency light, went out with the oil lamp, and asked through the door.

A strange boy outside the door replied: "Um, excuse me, I'm Shang Daqing who lives next door to you. We are out of candles. Can I borrow one?"

The person next door is surnamed Shang. He does have a son, who is said to work in a steel factory, but I have never met him.

"wait a moment."

Wen Qin looked back for a while, found two new candles, and then opened the door.

The man outside the door was wearing only a single layer of clothing in such a cold day. He was tall and strong, and looked half a head taller than Jie Mingxia.

Shang Daqing was also stunned when he saw Wen Qin coming out.

Wen Qin was wearing a military coat, covering herself from head to toe, with only a pair of cute furry cotton slippers visible on her feet.

Her hair was tied into a bun on top of her head with a few strands of hair hanging down on both sides, making her look even younger.

Wen Qin handed the candle over, but Shang Daqing did not reach out to take it.

Wen Qin was a little confused: "This comrade?"

Shang Daqing finally reacted and quickly reached out to take the candle: "Thank you, thank you, is this Comrade Wenqin? Thank you for the wontons."

Wenqin made some wontons a few days ago and gave some to the neighbors.

"No need, Aunt Wang has also sent me buns. You should go back quickly, the house cannot be without candles."

Shang Daqing then ran home, looking silly. Wen Qin stuck her head out and watched him turn into the next yard. After a while, a ray of light came through the dark gate of the yard.

"How could you be so reckless as to not even close the door?" Wen Qin muttered, and then she heard the sound of a bicycle bell behind her, followed by Jie Mingxia's voice.

"What are you looking at?"

Wen Qin turned around and saw Jie Mingxia pushing the car standing behind her, looking back and forth between her and the next door.

Wen Qin greeted him with a smile: "Aunt Wang's son, come and borrow a candle. You are back late today."

When Xie Mingxia heard that he wanted to borrow candles, she looked worried: "The power is out again?"

Wen Qin waited for him to drive the car into the yard before locking the door: "Yes, I just started cooking. I came back late today."

"Didn't you go get your transcript? Did something delay you?"

"Qi Hong wrote me a letter saying that their teacher who went to the countryside had returned to the capital and asked me to go and see him. I went to check on him and got delayed."

Xie Mingxia nodded: "Too many people have returned to the city recently, and there are many things to deal with, so I will be back quite late in the future, so don't wait for me."

"Oh, it would be great if there was a phone. You could just call me before you come back or not, so we don't have to move around like this every day." Wen Qin complained.

Xie Mingxia was helping her, and after hearing what she said, she said, "It's no problem to install a phone, but the problem is that this house is not ours..."

Wen Qin was a little surprised: "You can actually install a phone?"

"My boss asked me before, sometimes it's inconvenient to not find me when there's an emergency, but it's a bit difficult for me to get a room now."

If it were in a local area, it would not be difficult for Jie Mingxia to allocate a house, but in the imperial capital, this matter would be difficult.

I was able to rent this house because of luck and connections. Wenqin thought it was a problem. It required a lot of procedures to get a phone now. The house was not hers, so it would be troublesome to move when the time came.

"Can I buy this yard?" Wen Qin didn't remember when house transactions were allowed, but it was definitely not possible now, so she just didn't want to give up.

"No."

Wen Qin sighed.

Sure enough, there are still many inconveniences.

This topic made people feel bad, so Wen Qin quickly fried a dish and made a soup to deal with it.

"I saw the professor today and forgot to show him my grades." Wen Qin leaned on Jie Mingxia and suddenly slapped her thigh when she took out the transcript.

"Didn't he say the specific conditions? What if he said that only the top three or first place can go to see the computer?" Xie Mingxia glanced at Wen Qin's scores, which were almost 90 points, and had a new understanding of the academic masters in this school. "You did so well in the exam and only ranked eighth?"

Wen Qin also felt that: "My classmates will all be big shots in the future. I just want to hug their thighs and lie down."

Wen Qin had searched for the top few people this time. They were all big names with many works, especially her professor.

However, Qi Hong and Yan Mengjuan did not leave any clues, and no one knew whether they had an accident or changed their careers.

"You will become a big boss in the future." Xie Mingxia said firmly.

Wen Qin smiled. He didn't know how much he had cheated, but he still said, "Of course, I'll take you flying later."

Although he didn't know what "leading" meant, Xie Mingxia roughly understood what it meant: "Then I'll wait for you to lead me."

When Tianqin woke up the next day, he found that the weather outside had changed.

Covered in silver and white snow.

“It’s snowing!!!!”

Wen Qin, who had lived in the south for two lifetimes, saw such heavy snow for the first time. He couldn't help but cheer and ran out.

Just like a happy husky.
