MTL - Girlfriend Needs To Be Coaxed Every Day-Chapter 89

After returning, Lin Zheng first went back to her school to work on her graduation project.

It was almost the beginning of November, and the topic selection for the final project was over. Lin Zheng decided on the plan in the fastest time, discussed and confirmed with the instructor repeatedly, and at the same time, started her internship life in the research institute.

Due to the confidentiality system and 6S considerations, the computers in Linzheng’s office area cannot be connected to the Internet. Sometimes when she enters the laboratory, she doesn’t even have a mobile phone signal. She has almost lived a semi-isolated life. She can only find time to connect to the 4G when she goes to the bathroom or eats halfway. Check WeChat.

Gu Nanzhi seldom had one, and she would call the video at night after finishing class preparation.

The two places are separated and busy.

This is the first time that Lin Zheng has really experienced the "helplessness" of adults-if you want a comfortable life, you have no time to make money, and if you want money, you have to cut down on life.

In the world of adults, there will not be fish and bear's paws at the same time.

Lin Zheng recognized this fact and was slowly learning to compromise.

The days filled with longing are long and fast, and the New Year is coming in a blink of an eye.

Office workers only have one week off during the Spring Festival. Lin Zheng didn't receive a group email notification until 29, saying that today's attendance is until 12 noon, and she can leave work early after receiving holiday benefits.

The news was so exciting that no one could sit still for the next few hours, either chatting together or going in and out of endless toilets.

Lin Zheng sat on the workstation without moving. As soon as she relaxed, she suddenly felt tired and dazed.

When others go home, 'the wives and children are hot on the kang', she goes home empty and empty.

After getting off work, Lin Zheng packed her bag, wrapped in a down jacket, and wandered aimlessly on the road.

Their unit is in the busiest part of the city center, and they are full of festive colors for the New Year, but none of them belong to her, and none of the couples passing by is like the person in her heart.

There have been two heavy snowfalls this winter, and the wind has been bitingly cold.

—

Feng Hai'an was worried that he would not be able to secure a ticket to go back before Nian, so he took annual leave with the company early and came here to accompany Lin Zheng to celebrate the New Year.

When Shi Qi's parents found out, they immediately called Feng Hai'an and 'ordered' her and Lin Zheng to go to their house to celebrate the New Year together.

The kindness is hard to turn down, Feng Hai'an had no choice but to agree.

On New Year's Eve, Lin Zheng and Shi Qi, two 'young people', were picked up early to clean the glass and paste couplets. They finally finished their physical work, and they also had to do technical work such as making dumplings. They were so tired that they complained to the sky.

In the evening, the three adults began to prepare the New Year's Eve dinner, and Lin Zheng and Shi Qi found a chance to be lazy.

The two hid in Shi Qi's room, locked the door, and pretended not to hear any movement outside.

"Zheng'er, is Teacher Gu really not coming back for the New Year?" Shi Qibian and Xu Zhi asked Lin Zheng, who was in a daze on the beanbag sofa, while chatting on WeChat.

Lin Zheng turned over and looked out the window, the sky began to snow again.

"The road is blocked by heavy snow, so I can't get out." Lin Zheng said.

Gu Nanzhi had actually made a plan before, saying that he could buy a ticket to come back after the school's home visit was over.

No, the day before departure, a student's grandmother had a stroke suddenly.

There was only one child in the family at the time, and the parents who were working in other places did not plan to go home for the New Year in order to save travel expenses, so they did not prepare in advance.

When the old man's accident happened, it was just in time for the peak of the Spring Festival travel season, and there was no way to buy a ticket in the past, but the scalpers had it, and the price was shockingly expensive.

As a last resort, the two could only ask the village party secretary and Gu Nanzhi to take care of them. Fortunately, they found out in time and the problem was not serious.

However, Gu Nanzhi was busy until the end of the year, and when she wanted to come back, a heavy snow blocked all the roads, and she was forced to stay there.

In the countryside, there is only running water and no heating.

During the video call with Gu Nanzhi, Lin Zheng clearly saw frostbite on her slender and white hands.

They are obviously so warm.

Lin Zheng hugged his knees with both hands, curled up into a ball, and the mist in his eyes came up unsatisfactorily.

Shi Qiyi turned her head and saw this scene, she finished chatting with Xu Zhi in a few words, climbed off the bed and squeezed next to Lin Zheng to comfort her, "Zheng'er, don't be sad, I will accompany you to take care of her when the road is cleared." Teacher, after the new year, spring will begin soon, and the snow in spring will melt very quickly."

Lin Zhengyuan was just a little hypocritical, but Shi Qi comforted her so much that she couldn't hold back anymore, tears streaming down her face, "I just feel like I'm too busy with work. When I was in school, I always wanted to work quickly to make money and support myself. Now that I really started working, I realized that there are too many things to learn, and there is too little free time. Even eating is like fighting. Sometimes things are not done well, and you have to be scolded. Colleagues are different from classmates. Once interests are involved , will push each other, and even stabbed in the back, such days are very tiring."

"If you are not happy with your work, we will resign. You are so good, why are you afraid you won't be able to find a job?" Shi Qi said angrily.

Lin Zheng sat up, crying like a child in a tantrum, and said, "You can't resign. Now this is a central enterprise. Although the wages are not as fast as private enterprises, but they are stable and the benefits are good. All the plans in the future are worse than private enterprises. it is good."

"Then you..." I couldn't bear it, I couldn't bear it, hey, Shiqi suddenly started to worry about his work.

Lin Zheng wiped away her tears, took a deep breath to calm down, "I can endure all these hardships, but I haven't seen Teacher Gu for a long time, and when I think of her being there alone during the Chinese New Year, with no relatives and no heating in the house, I feel so sad. uncomfortable."

"I know." Shi Qi took Lin Zheng's hand and hugged her, "After dinner, let's go out to watch the excitement, and then you and Teacher Gu will make a video and count down together, so that she won't be alone .”

Lin Zheng, "...um." But the more this happened, the more she would miss Gu Nanzhi.

—

Shi's father and Feng Hai'an are both masters of cooking, and the New Year's Eve dinner prepared was very sumptuous. Shi Qi's father also generously brought out the good wine that he had treasured for many years. While drinking, he lamented how time flies. In just a few minutes, the 'slap-big' bare-bottomed child grows into a slim girl.

Soon, they will graduate, start working, and live with the people they like, leaving them old guys who can't keep up with the times to depend on each other.

The cycle of life seems to have entered another stage. This is a new start, but they are no longer young.

Shi Qi's father's sad words made the atmosphere at the table extremely gloomy.

Lin Zheng already had something in his heart, but when he heard these tears, he couldn't hold back his tears, so angry that Shi Qi's mother almost drove Shi Qi's father out of the house.

The two people, whose combined age was over a hundred, chased and hid each other in the living room, having a great time 'fighting', and even the gloomy atmosphere gradually eased.

Lin Zheng couldn't feel the liveliness, so he ate his food sullenly, his heart was full of Gu Nanzhi.

When the New Year's Eve dinner was over, Shi Qi dragged Lin Zheng out without stopping.

There was still more than an hour before the countdown to the New Year's Eve, but the square was already packed with people.

After wandering through the crowd for a long time, the two finally found an excellent spot to watch the fireworks.

"Zheng'er, quickly make a video for Teacher Gu." Shi Qi urged.

Lin Zheng rubbed his cheeks that were flushed from the cold, and awkwardly picked up the phone to make a face video through the gloves.

After the identification was passed, she found Gu Nanzhi's WeChat account and nervously sent her a video call.

There was a lot of voices around, and Lin Zheng couldn't quite hear the notification tone when calling, so he could only stare at the "waiting for the other party to accept the invitation..." at the top of the screen for a moment.

[The other party's mobile phone may not be with you, it is recommended to try again later]

Seeing this reminder, Lin Zheng's nervousness cooled down. She hung up the video, put down her phone calmly and said, "Teacher Gu may be busy."

The falling feeling of the mobile phone lanyard clearly pinched the back of his neck, but Lin Zheng felt his throat was tightly strangled, and the pain was so painful that he could hardly speak.

Shi Qi didn't know the result, so he said helplessly: "Maybe I really don't have the phone with me, try again later, or make a call, yes, I'll call Teacher Gu."

Lin Zheng wanted to say that if Gu Nanzhi had time, he would definitely take the initiative to find her. If she didn't answer, it meant that she couldn't let go, even if she called, it was useless. Unfortunately, Shi Qi's movements were too fast. dialed out.

Luckily, Lin Zheng couldn't refuse, she held her breath and waited for Shiqi to announce the result.

"Shut down."

"Oh, it seems that something really happened." Lin Zheng said with a smile.

Shi Qi couldn't see Lin Zheng forcing a smile, turned his eyes away, and leaned against the guardrail with her and said, "You shouldn't let Mr. Gu teach there. Mr. Gu is so powerful, where is it better than a small village that still relies on farming for its livelihood?"

"Yeah, it's good anywhere." Lin Zheng admitted the fact that Shi Qi said, but, "The meaning of following the trend is not the same as trying to change. The former may allow her to use advanced teaching methods and rich teaching resources' Famous', gaining 'sought after' by parents and students, the latter, she almost made changes from scratch, if she succeeds, she will get respect and love, even if she fails, she has no regrets."

Lin Zheng never felt that Gu Nanzhi was obsessed with fame and money. What she loved was her students and the profession itself from beginning to end.

When Lin Zheng said this, Shi Qi suddenly felt that she was superficial. She swallowed the complaints that had reached her lips, and said in a brisk tone: "Mr. Gu is so powerful, as her wife, you must not hold back."

"I'm not holding back." Lin Zheng retorted with red ears.

This was the first time she had heard people say that about her relationship with Gu Nanzhi, so she felt embarrassed.

Shi Qi's words disrupted Lin Zheng's depressed thoughts, and she was gradually infected by the joyful atmosphere of the New Year. She kept accepting New Year's blessings from strangers, and sincerely replied "Happy New Year" to them.

It was approaching twelve o'clock, and the two squeezed into the crowd, preparing for the countdown to the New Year with them.

"10, 9, 8...2, 1, Happy New Year!" The cheers were right next to my ears, with the sound of fireworks blooming enthusiastically.

Lin Zheng stood quietly in the crowd, raised his head, his dark pupils were gradually brightened by the night.

Before the fireworks ended, Lin Zheng took out her mobile phone and put her smiling face and Mid-air Bright into the photo.

When the night sky returned to silence, Lin Zheng avoided the flow of people and went to a corner where no one was around to send Gu Nanzhi a WeChat message.

The first one is the photo just now.

The second article, [Mr. Gu, Happy New Year. I miss you, how about you? 】

After sending the WeChat message, Lin Zheng took the phone off his neck and stuffed it into his pocket.

She didn't know when she would receive Gu Nanzhi's reply, she was afraid that she would wait in a hurry.

Now that the New Year's Eve is over, the crowds in the square have begun to disperse, leaving behind a mess that makes the winter night even colder.

Lin Zheng covered his mouth with both hands and let out a sigh.

Shiqi was still videoing with Xu Zhi by the side of the road, and he probably wouldn't be able to return in a while.

Lin Zheng was bored alone, kicking boxes and bags on the ground, and kicking them towards the trash can little by little.

Lin Zheng couldn't help shivering when he kicked the can of Coke.

Drinking Coke in winter, isn't it afraid of freezing in your stomach?

Lin Zheng licked her lips, a little craving for ice cream...

"Hey." After making sure he couldn't eat it, Lin Zheng sighed heavily, and continued to kick the can to move towards the trash can.

Halfway through the kick, an extra foot suddenly appeared in front of it and stuck it.

Lin Zheng looked up that foot suspiciously.

Black Martin boots, light denim pencil pants, white sweater, beige cashmere scarf...

"Teacher Gu." Lin Zheng called Gu Nanzhi in disbelief, his voice so low that only he could hear it.

She was standing on the side of the road not far from Lin Zheng, with her hands in her coat pockets, and she was handsome and gentle in a neutral dress.

This picture is like a dream, too beautiful to be real.

The sky was still full of snowflakes, and a piece of snow fell on Gu Nanzhi's eyelashes inadvertently.

She blinked, smiled and said to Lin Zheng who was staring at her motionlessly: "I miss you too."
