Return to Singapore 1995

This terrace house is not very big. The first floor is a large living room and kitchen. There are two rooms on the second floor, one for Guo Hanyue and one for Liu Mengchen. There are also two rooms on the third floor. The largest master bedroom is used by the old lady herself. It contains her life memories and treasures. She locks it up and does not rent it out. There is a guest room next to it, which is rented to Li Xiaofan.

Li Xiaofan likes this guest room very much. Although it is not very big, it is enough for him, a bachelor, to live in. There is a small sun terrace outside. When you walk out of the sun terrace, you can not only smoke, but also enjoy the beautiful scenery of Changi Beach Park opposite and the sea in the distance, which is pleasing to the eye.

Li Xiaofan took the key from Guo Hanyue and said, "Okay, I'll go first. Hanyue, take your time. 88"

Guo Hanyue looked at the big pot of noodles in the pot and said, "By the way, Xiaofan, have you had dinner?"

"Not yet, I'm going to the market now!"

"I forgot that Mengchen is on the late night shift today. This pot of noodles is too much. Do you want to help me digest it?"

Li Xiaofan wanted to decline. It was a bit embarrassing to eat someone else's food on the first day of knowing each other.

Later, he thought about it. We are all roommates under the same roof in the future. The girl treats you to noodles because she thinks highly of you. The key is that this pot of noodles smells pretty good, and Guo Hanyue is a big beauty.

"Okay, let's try your cooking today! How about I invite you to Newton Circle to eat local delicacies next time?"

"Okay, we haven't been to the legendary Chinatown and Newton Circle yet!"

It seems that these two girls are also quite pitiful. They must be busy working to make money like themselves and have never even been to Chinatown.

Guo Hanyue is a Sichuan girl who is good at making Sichuan noodles. Her handmade noodles are spicy first, the noodles are chewy, the soup is fresh and thick, with minced garlic, a little meat sauce and a few fresh prawns bought from the market, the taste is quite spicy and delicious.

Sichuan noodles are delicious, plus they are eaten too fast. Seeing that Li Xiaofan's forehead is sweating, Guo Hanyue stood up and said, "Is it hot? I'll turn up the fan for you!"

"It's okay, thank you!"

The large living room of the townhouse faces the beach, and it is transparent from north to south. It is very cool with the fan.

Guo Hanyue's light-colored long pajamas are very thin, and the underwear inside can be vaguely seen.

Especially when she bent down to adjust the fan button, her beautiful buttocks were raised to Li Xiaofan, and the slender and round legs that were looming inside, as well as the black triangle, made Li Xiaofan feel a little congested in his forehead...

Oh, this is a bit unbearable!

Sitting on the big sofa in the living room, enjoying the cool breeze, eating delicious Sichuan noodles, and watching the big TV, Li Xiaofan felt very happy.

The key is that there is a fair and beautiful nurse accompanying him for dinner. Li Xiaofan feels that his future life is so happy!

This bowl of noodles, Li Xiaofan feels that it is the most delicious bowl since he came to Singapore!

…

After work in the evening, Li Xiaofan met the team leader A Xiang.

“Afan, the officer asked me to tell you that you will start working the day shift tomorrow, and you will not have to work the late night shift after 12 o’clock tonight. Go back and have a good sleep, and get enough energy to work well at night!”

“Why do you suddenly start working the day shift tomorrow?” Li Xiaofan asked curiously.

"Silly, congratulations on entering the Officer's eyes! The Officer said that starting tomorrow, an engineer from Tokyo TAIYO Electric's headquarters will come over to upgrade the test software of the two new machines, and then conduct on-site training. The Officer named all the technical backbones of our workshop to participate in the on-site training during the day. You must perform well, and you will have a promising future!"

"Oh, that's the case, I understand, thank you!"

At midnight, Li Xiaofan got off work and returned to Orchid Village. After eating, washing and cleaning, it was already 1:30 in the morning. He hurried to bed. He had to give up tomorrow's morning exercise for the time being. Sleep is important.

At more than eight o'clock in the morning, the shuttle bus of Ximu Electronics Factory arrived at the factory on time.

When Li Xiaofan was clocking in at the guard, a yellow rehabilitation taxi came and stopped at the door. A young man who looked about 27 or 28 years old got off from it. He had a neat short hair with glue, and looked majestic. In such a hot day, he was wearing a thin suit, a suit tie and spotless leather shoes, which made people look sideways.

The young man was holding a toolbox in his right hand, which was marked with "TAIYO Electrician".

Li Xiaofan couldn't help but take a few more glances, and suddenly, he felt that this man looked so familiar!

The young man in a suit came to the guardhouse and spoke a lot of Japanese English to the two security guards.

The two Malay security guards were confused and pleaded: "Could you speak more slowly, sir?" Can you speak slower?

Li Xiaofan, who was standing next to him, was happy and blurted out to the young man in a suit: "Haruma-san?"

The young man in a suit seemed to have found a savior, but was surprised and said: "Ah, you know me?"

"Yes, I know you very much!"

It turned out that this young man was Hada Haruma-san, an engineer from Tokyo TAIYO Electrician.

When Li Xiaofan was working as a sales manager in Shanghai before his rebirth, Haruma Haneda was already the chief representative of TAIYO Electric's Shanghai representative office. Li Xiaofan's company is the agent of TAIYO Electric in Southeast Asia, and he is mainly responsible for the TAIYO Electric customer, so the two have a close relationship and often go to KTVs in Shanghai to drink and have fun together. After getting to know each other, people don't like to call him Haneda, but like to call him Haruma-san, because when this old guy goes to KTV at night, he changes his serious and serious manner during the day and goes crazy like an old horse in heat.

Haruma Haneda is still a young man with a noble and high spirits.

Haruma Haneda graduated from Ibaraki University in Japan, and the famous Hitachi company was born in Ibaraki.

The English spoken by Japanese people may be the most difficult to understand in the world, even more difficult to understand than the English of Indians.

There is a joke on the Internet, a group of Indians mocked the Japanese for being too difficult to understand English: "Jabonese agcent is vedy vedy hard to undershdand." (You Japanese speak English too difficult to understand), the Japanese were not convinced: "Indeian ekusento ishi belly belly hado tsu andasudando." (You Indians speak English difficult to understand!)

The reason why Japanese can't speak English well is that they are too deeply influenced by their mother tongue, which is quite "pitiful" to some extent. Their mother tongue has too few phonemes and a simple pronunciation system, which leads to a lot of fuzzification and near-sound substitution, and they forcibly use their own kana to spell foreign languages, causing distortion. They rely on transliteration of their native language to learn foreign language pronunciation, so can people still understand English when they speak it?

The two Malay security guards couldn't quite understand Haruma Haneda's English, but Li Xiaofan had no problem at all. In his previous life, he had worked with Haruma Haneda in Shanghai for several years and had also been to their Tokyo headquarters for business trips and training. It was not a big problem for him to understand Haruma's English.

Just now, Li Xiaofan called out tentatively and received a warm response from the other party, confirming that the guy in front of him was Haruma Haneda.
