"It's been raining these days. Fengtai is quite far.”

"That's why she didn't have a past."

"But I heard from my sister that Brother Zhaoyang went to the city for business last Wednesday, so he took some time to look for her at the supply and marketing cooperative where my sister works.”

"They agreed that if it doesn't rain this weekend, my sister will go and look for him.”

Yu Haitang explained the situation to Fang Yan honestly.

This was insider news.

Fang Yan also saw the continuous spring rain outside and replied with a "mm".

He sucked the remaining vermicelli into his mouth.

In this weather, the only way to travel on the muddy tractor road was by car.

He could forget about riding a bicycle.

Fang Yan mumbled,

"It's good that your sister didn't go on a blind date."

Yu Haitang rolled her eyes.

"You're already in a relationship, so why are you still going on a blind date? Who do you think my sister is?”

After saying that, he stood up and tidied his clothes. He said to Fang Yan,

"I won't tell you anymore. Take your time to eat. Teacher Li is still waiting for my reply.”

"Alright, go ahead." Fang Yan nodded and took a big bite of the cornbread.

After Yu Haitang left.

He picked up the lunch box and realized that he had finished everything in it.

There was already half a spoonful more of a type of dish, but it still felt a little too little.

Chewing on the dry cornbread in his mouth, Fang Yan got up and prepared to go to the water room.

Not far away, He Yushui saw Fang Yan stand up and quickly stood up as well.

She greeted him,

"Let's go to the water room!"

"Let's go." Fang Yan nodded and let He Yushui walk in front.

"Fang Yan, let's go together!" At this moment, Zhou Jie also stood up.

Fang Yan frowned. This lady did not look like someone who drank soup.

Even the people around her were puzzled.

What did this sister mean?

Just as everyone was guessing.

She walked up and followed Fang Yan out of the classroom.

Zhou Jie did not even take two steps before she invited Fang Yan in the aisle,"

"Come to my house tomorrow weekend!"

" Huh?!" Fang Yan was baffled by this sudden invitation.

He couldn't help but ask,"

"Go to your house? Is there anything?"

Fang Yan thought that they were just classmates and did not have a good relationship to the extent of inviting her to his house.

Zhou Jie followed behind Fang Yan. He Yushui looked a little confused, wondering what this Cheng Yaojin who had appeared out of nowhere was planning.

Logically speaking, a cadre's son like Zhou Jie would not look up to 'poor people' like Fang Yan.

Furthermore, Fang Yan did not usually hang out with them.

The distance between them was quite strong.

Therefore, it was strange today. She actually took the initiative to invite Fang Yan to her house.

As they spoke, everyone had already arrived outside the water room.

In front of the tap, students lined up to get water.

Naturally, everyone lined up together. He Yushui pricked up her ears in front of Fang Yan, listening to what Zhou Jie had to say.

Zhou Jie was behind Fang Yan. She lowered her voice and whispered into Fang Yan's ear,"

"Don't you know Russian?"

"It's alright." Fang Yan did not know what she wanted to ask.

Zhou Jie continued,

"I have a Russian opera script with lines in it. I want you to help translate it into Chinese and polish it.”

"When the time comes, the courtyard will use this script to perform.”

Fang Yan finally understood.

This was a program in the cadre compound. Sometimes, there would be a report performance.

Zhou Jie was from the Air Force Compound, and many of the officers there had studied in the Soviet Union.

Therefore, this kind of performance was considered a daily routine.

However, to translate Russian into Chinese, he still had to polish it into words that he liked.

Then the difficulty would be high.

It was naturally best to find an adult in the academy who knew Russian to do this.

However, they were not as free as these children every day.

Training and learning missions were usually full.

Therefore, it was almost impossible to find someone who could speak Russian and had time in the courtyard.

Thus, Fang Yan became the best candidate that Zhou Jie had set her eyes on.

This reason was very reasonable.

However, Fang Yan subconsciously felt that things were not that simple.

Since it was related to the military, he thought it was better to be careful.

These days, these departments were considered sensitive units. They were either left or right. Anyway, he had long thought about it. He would avoid such a network of people if he could.

If he had to wait a few years and translate a politically-correct book like Born of the Storm, he wouldn't even know how to translate it.

"I'm sorry, I'm not free!"

"I haven't completed the task given by Teacher Li yet.”

Fang Yan did not hesitate at all and rejected him directly.

Zhou Jie was stunned and immediately went closer to add,

"Don't. It's not for nothing. Ten eggs for nutrition and twenty yuan for the author's fee.”

She raised a finger at Fang Yan."

"It's just for a day. There aren't many words, and I'll even provide you with food and drink.”

Fang Yan revealed a professional fake smile and continued to shirk,

"It's not that I don't want to go, but I really don't have time. Besides, with my literary quality, I can't write any good lyrics.”

"You think too highly of me. I'll thank you in advance, but this matter will stop here!”

"I have to continue translating novels this weekend.”

"I'm sorry."

Zhou Jie stared at Fang Yan's side profile and saw how frank and decisive he was.

He could only sigh helplessly and compromise,""Alright then…"

Then, they had already filmed Fang Yan drawing water. When Fang Yan was drawing water, Zhou Jie did not give up and asked Fang Yan,

"Fang Yan, why do I feel like you're always avoiding me?”

"Is there? Then you're wrong." Fang Yan swirled the boiled water in the lunchbox, then wiped the remaining half of the cornbread in his hand.

After blowing a breath of cool air, he stuffed the cornbread into his mouth.

Without waiting for Zhou Jie, he turned around and walked back through the crowd.

In this moment, he had already walked far away.

Zhou Jie, who had stayed where she was, stomped her feet in anger as she watched Fang Yan walk away.

However, someone behind him asked,"

"Classmate? Are you still going to fetch water? If you don't want to fetch water, please make way!"

Zhou Jie glanced at the person behind her.

She threw the porcelain bowl and spoon in her hand and knocked them against the tap.

He replied angrily,

"I'm not fighting anymore!"

As he said that, he looked outside, but Fang Yan had already disappeared.

At this moment, Fang Yan was already sitting in the aisle with soup and eating cornbread.

At this moment, a system notification popped up in his mind.

Ding! You have rejected Zhou Jie's important invitation. You have received a resource gift bag. Do you want to open it?

" Huh?!" Fang Yan could not help but ask with food in his mouth.

Important invitation?

This was the first time he had seen it.

And it was the fourth grand prize.

He frowned and muttered,"

"Activate!"

Then, he saw a series of rewards:

Ding! Reward: Cooking skill with inferior ingredients. Note: This skill will increase the deliciousness of inferior ingredients.

Ding! The reward is a Chinese tunic suit.

Ding! A pair of leather shoes.

Ding! Reward: two bottles of Fenjiu.

Ding! Reward: 10 catties of pork belly.

Ding! Reward: 50 White Rabbit Creamy Candies.

Ding! The reward was 20 yuan.
