Shangjing Airport.
A girl wearing a short shawl jacket stood at the entrance of the airport with a suitcase in her hand. She was saying goodbye to the two people who came to see her off.
"Sis … Master, I'm leaving."
Lu Zhou looked at the nervous Han Mengqi. He gave her an encouraging look and spoke.
"Okay, be careful."
Unlike the insensitive Lu Zhou, Chen Yushan looked at her cousin who was about to get on the plane and said with a worried expression, "Be careful.
Remember to send me a message when you get off the plane, and don't forget to tell me you are safe before you go to bed every night. "
"I know … I'm not a child."
Han Mengqi secretly glanced at the two people. She tightened her grip on the suitcase in her hand, turned around, and trotted to the check-in gate. The petite figure quickly disappeared into the crowd.
Chen Yushan watched the figure disappear into the crowd. She looked at Lu Zhou with some worry and spoke.
"Mengqi, she … Will she be fine? I heard that North America is in a mess now. "
"Don't worry." Lu Zhou smiled and said casually, "Not only will she be fine, but it will also be an opportunity for her."
Chen Yushan looked at Lu Zhou with some confusion.
"… Opportunity?"
"Well, the manned Mars landing project has progressed to this stage, and NASA hasn't responded at all. Do you think they are preparing for a big move?"
Chen Yushan pinched her chin with her right hand and thought for a moment. She then suddenly raised her head.
"Not really, do you mean …"
"It seems that you have guessed it." Lu Zhou smiled faintly, nodded slightly, and said, "Yes, they are at their wit's end. If I guessed correctly, the White House should be waiting for an opportunity to send a friendly signal, preparing to repair the tense relationship with us caused by the space race. If everything goes well, her trip to North America should be able to receive a very good reception … There might even be a gift waiting for her. "
In fact, he didn't think of these things. He only learned about this from Director Li after he declined the annual award from the International Union of Materials Research Societies.
"What kind of gift will it be?"
"It's probably an award for young scholars, or something similar. I don't know, but it should be very helpful for her future development."
Han Mengqi, who was already sitting in the waiting room, suddenly sneezed without warning.
At this moment, she didn't know that her trip to the United States was far more complicated than she had imagined. Even before her flight took off, the fleet of cars to pick her up was already waiting outside the airport …
After sending his little apprentice to the airport, Lu Zhou took Chen Yushan to the maglev station.
He had been in Shangjing for almost two weeks. During these two weeks, he had been dragged by his father-in-law to drink almost every day. Moreover, it was the kind where one of them would not stop until one of them got drunk.
Out of consideration for the elderly's health, Lu Zhou and Chen Yushan discussed for a while, then said goodbye to the two elders. He still remembered that when he first left, Uncle Chen was still upset that he didn't succeed in getting him drunk. He held Lu Zhou's hand and kept saying that they should drink together when they were free. He didn't let go of Lu Zhou's hand until Lu Zhou agreed.
Lu Zhou, who didn't sleep well last night, finally got on the maglev plane back to Jinling. He rested the back of his head on the seat cushion and quietly closed his eyes. As for Chen Yushan, who was sitting next to him, she seemed to be reminiscing something. She put her hands under her chin and rested her elbows on the small table in front of her.
"It feels like the past few days have gone by so fast."
Although many things had happened, he still felt like he was in a dream.
"It's pretty fast."
Chen Yushan didn't notice that Lu Zhou was almost asleep. She was completely immersed in her own world. A happy smile appeared on her face.
"It's like …"
She didn't know why, but after pondering for a long time, she suddenly stopped.
Lu Zhou was curious about what she wanted to say. He opened his eyes and looked at the smiling face that seemed to be hiding a treasure.
"Like what?"
"I told you not to laugh at me."
"Don't worry, when have I ever laughed at you?"
"I used to do it all the time! You can't even solve a problem like this … "Chen Yushan stared at Lu Zhou fiercely.
But soon, the fierce look in his eyes softened.
She looked down at the small table and hid her face behind her hair as she spoke in a quiet voice.
She whispered, "What I want to say is, it's like a honeymoon."
What …
That's it?
He had originally thought that it was something incredible.
Lu Zhou looked at Chen Yushan and couldn't help but smile. But soon after, he noticed a pair of bright eyes staring at him.
Lu Zhou remembered that he promised not to make fun of her. He quickly stopped smiling and forced a serious expression on his face. He nodded and spoke.
"Yeah, not bad."
"What do you mean not bad?" Chen Yushan stared at Lu Zhou suspiciously and whispered, "Even though you usually look like this, why do I feel like you're acting weird today?"
Because I don't want to laugh.
Lu Zhou sighed in his heart and tried not to laugh. He quickly changed the topic.
"Speaking of which, when we get married at the end of this year, where do you want to go for your honeymoon?"
"How about the Moon? The hotel invested by Star Sky Technology on the Moon is almost finished. "
Lu Zhou looked at her with surprise.
"You really invested in building a hotel there?"
"Yeah! I thought about it a long time ago. Don't you think vacationing on the Moon sounds very romantic? "
Speaking of this matter, the pair of bright eyes seemed to emit light.
Lu Zhou looked at Chen Yushan and spoke with a smile.
"Then we'll go with what you want."
Chen Yushan: "Don't you have somewhere you want to go? We can talk about it. "
Lu Zhou sighed and said, "I prefer to stay in the laboratory and study room … But if I say this, you'll definitely want to hit me."
"Then why did you say it!"
"Because I'm an honest man."
At this moment, his phone suddenly rang.
Lu Zhou picked up the phone and put it next to his ear.
Chen Yushan had been secretly observing the changes in Lu Zhou's expression. When Lu Zhou hung up the phone and put it back in his pocket, she asked curiously, "Who called?"
"From the Jinling launch site."
"It's from the Jinling launch site."
"What's up?"
"Xu Fu has entered the Mars system. If there are no accidents, it will enter orbit in a few hours. Dean Chang asked me when I'm going back, and I told him I'm already on my way back to Jinling. "
Chen Yushan spoke reluctantly.
"I feel like you're going to be busy again."
"Don't worry …"
Lu Zhou looked at the series of digital prints outside the window and sighed softly.
"That's for sure."
Whether it was the system mission that exuded an ominous aura or the mountain of work that he could see, no matter which one it was, it didn't seem like they would let him be idle.
He only hoped to finish the work at hand by the end of the year.
