Watch the aircraft slowly slide out of the parking space and turn onto the runway to prepare for takeoff.
Su Xiaomu turned around and got into the Rolls-Royce parked aside, and left the airport under the guidance of the airport guidance vehicle.
The evening breeze in Boston on an early spring night is a bit chilly.
Just like the heart of Su Xiaomu who had just sent away his two beautiful and capable girlfriends at this moment...
Slightly cool.
Twelve or thirteen hours later, 388 will land at Yangcheng Baiyun International Airport.
It happened to be nine or ten o'clock in the evening Beijing time.
The jet lag is so much more comfortable.
After returning to the townhouse from Boston's Logan Airport, Su Xiaomu rejected some of He Li's hints that he had understood a long time ago.
There is no turmoil in my heart.
After washing and lying on the bed, Su Xiaomu stared at the ceiling in a daze.
After all, this is no longer Yangcheng. There is no three-story panoramic skylight, and you can't see the stars at night even when you are lying on the bed.
"Abroad is really different from domestic. It's so different."
"It's just... who can withstand this!"
"..."
But no one could hear Su Xiaomu's complaints.
Let alone understand the meaning of Su Xiaomu's words.
A night of silence.
When Su Xiaomu got up from bed the next morning, he suddenly felt sore all over.
I tossed and turned a bit last night, and I don't quite remember how I fell asleep.
After washing up and changing clothes in the cloakroom, I went downstairs and heard a noise coming from the kitchen.
Su Xiaomu was not surprised, this had been planned for a long time.
Two chefs will take turns preparing daily meals. In Wan Dai's words, it is a perfect combination of Chinese and Western cuisine.
Not only the chef came over, but also the Chinese aunt who tidied the room.
After seeing Su Xiaomu, he greeted Su Xiaomu quickly and said: "Mr. Su, I have prepared millet porridge and rice noodles from my hometown for breakfast. You can try them."
Su Xiaomu smiled and nodded.
and work hard to maintain it.
Growing up, this was the first time I felt a little anxious.
People from small areas have never personally experienced such thoughtful care.
Although in the daily life in China before, the care taken by Su Ho and Wan Dai was so considerate, careful, meticulous and meticulous by countless orders of magnitude.
But that's still different after all.
After breakfast, Su Xiaomu walked out of the villa, drove the Volvo S60 in the parking lot in front of the house and rushed to MIT.
While having breakfast, the chef asked Su Xiaomu how the meal was.
Su Xiaomu thought about it in his mind and realized that it was indeed not as good as Su Ho's craftsmanship, but he said with a smile that it was very good.
In the past, Su Xiaomu seemed not to be so tactful.
While driving on the road, Su Xiaomu didn't think much about this matter.
…………
…………
According to the process received yesterday morning from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology to Su Xiaomu and others who came to exchange and study;
There is still not much business going on today.
It was probably almost a detailed version of the welcome party the night before.
Participate in learning in different groups according to different professional directions.
The collective will have a new welcome ceremony.
Get to know people, chat, and become familiar with the environment.
At 8:30, Su Xiaomu first received a call from Su Ho in Yangcheng.
"Dede and I are home, how are you doing there?"
Su Xiaomu breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good to be home. I'm at school here, ready to get familiar with the environment."
"There won't be any classes scheduled today."
"You guys go to bed early."
Wanda's voice came from the receiver: "How was breakfast?"
"Are you not used to it?"
"It's okay, it's okay..."
"Okay, okay, overseas phone calls are quite expensive, so I won't go into details. Just go to class quickly."
Su Ho said coldly.
The phone buzzed and then hung up.
Su Xiaomu: "..."
Oh, woman!
How expensive can an overseas phone call be?!
Ah!
Going to heaven!
After arriving in the United States, Su Xiaomu did not change his domestic phone card. In addition to China Mobile, China Unicom and China Telecom all have traditional international business services in the United States. 1
It just so happened that Su Xiaomu had a domestic China Unicom phone card.
So I don’t plan to apply for a new American card. China Unicom’s call quality abroad is still guaranteed.
It's just that the fee is a bit expensive.
To be honest, what Su Ho said makes sense.
The call rate is almost 1 yuan per minute compared to domestic calls. If I say a few words, the entire apartment will be gone.
And if you call other countries, it will cost almost 4 yuan per minute...
As soon as Su Xiaomu got off the car, he saw Yi Ran and Chen Jiming, who were quite eye-catching in the crowd.
"Su Xiaomu, this way."
Yi Ran shouted.
After Su Xiaomu came closer, Yi Ran chirped and asked.
"I didn't make an appointment with you in advance because I was afraid of disturbing you. Where do you live?"
"Do you have an international driver's license?"
“What’s it like driving in America?”
"I heard that cars here are generally cheaper than those in China, right?"
Su Xiaomu nodded and replied: "If you need anything, you can come to me in time. I have nothing to do here. I live in a townhouse not far from your apartment."
"Let's go, let's find today's classroom first." Chen Jiming on the side tried hard to express his presence.
Su Xiaomu and Yi Ran nodded.
What happened after that was not unexpected, and there was no deviation from the beginning.
Su Xiaomu, Yi Ran, and Chen Jiming were not separated and assigned because they came from the same school and had the same major.
After finding the classroom and walking in, there was warm applause.
Perhaps because every exchange and study session is different, this time a group welcome ceremony was hosted by original MIT students.
A handsome guy with blond hair that looked like it could fly into waves took charge of the process.
"Welcome Su, Yi and Chen from China Scut."
"Welcome from Australia..."
"..."
We welcomed all the exchange students in turn, a total of 13 people, which is quite a lot in terms of proportion.
After all, MIT is very big, but broken down into categories, each major is not so big.
There's nothing much to say about this.
Except that Su Xiaomu received an unspeakable amount of attention from the very beginning, nothing else happened.
Average.
Su Xiaomu also said hello, and would not insist on promoting that he was Chinese only if he spoke Chinese on such an occasion.
And this will only be considered pretentious.
Not long after Su Xiaomu found a seat and sat down, the wavy blond boy who introduced himself as Louis in the opening remarks suddenly said:
"Is anyone interested in Su?!"
"Tell me loud!"
The sound of wow wow wow sounded.
Lewis smiled mysteriously and looked at Su Xiaomu: "..."
1: From the official website of China Mobile, we can see that the international roaming service does not provide call services, only pure traffic packages, and there has been news before that the United States rejected the relevant application submitted by China Mobile as early as 2011.
