The second year after Lin Nan went to the United States, Fan Lili also wanted to leave.

She got the admission notice from American schools and got her passport, but because Liu Yan didn't want to leave, she didn't leave either.

Liu Yan's parents are stationed in the United States all year round due to the nature of their work.

He was enjoying himself in Ningcheng alone, but he was worried that when he came to the United States, he would be suppressed by his parents and lose his freedom.

Fan Lili had no choice but to put aside the matter of studying abroad because she couldn't let go of Liu Yan.

After graduating from college, I worked for a foreign computer company.

When he graduated from college, Liu Yan was assigned to the 218 Research Institute under the Ministry of Electronic Industry.

There is a saying circulating in the Ministry of Electronics Industry: There are 203 in the south and 218 in the north.

These two institutes are located in two ancient capitals in northern and southern China.

Logically speaking, this is something that many people cannot envy.

The male classmates in the class said jealously to Zhou Haiyang and Liu Yan: "How did you two get your shit luck? The two most beautiful golden flowers in the class and the two best research institutes in the department have been occupied by you two.

…”

However, Liu Yan didn't want to leave Ningcheng. It wasn't that he didn't like Tangcheng.

Fan Lili gave up the opportunity to study in the United States in order to be with him. Therefore, he must stay in Ningcheng and be with her.

For this reason, he has been reluctant to report to the 218th School. He hopes that the school can reassign it.

Because of this incident, Courtyard 218 was infuriated.

Without saying a word, he immediately returned his file to the Human Resources Department of the Ministry. The Human Resources Department of the Electronics Department returned the file to the school.

Zhou Haiyang discussed Liu Yan's matter with the 203 hospital and the school many times, saying that he would let Liu Yan go to the 203 hospital and he would go to the 218 hospital.

Anyway, I am alone, my hometown happens to be in the northwest, and the 218th Hospital is in Tangcheng.

Unexpectedly, the 203 hospital firmly disagreed to release Zhou Haiyang, saying that everyone had come to report, so there was no reason to send him back? Besides, it was better to replace him with someone who had been returned by the 218 hospital.

He also said that this was not a waste, but a leftover, and the 203 hospital could not afford to lose face like this...

What's even more terrible is that the Human Resources Department of the Ministry of Electronics rejected Liu Yan's work arrangements in all research institutes and companies under the Ministry of Electronics.

Liu Yan had to go to the teacher at the school's employment guidance center, hoping that the school could assign him to another unit in Ningcheng, which annoyed the school again.

The school refused to help him rearrange his job, saying that the graduation assignment process had already ended.

For this reason, Liu Yan had a big fight with the school and finally broke up with each other.

In anger, the school transferred his file to the subdistrict office and asked him to find a job on his own.

Liu Yan, a college graduate from the 1988 class, was originally a cadre, but because he disobeyed the state's distribution, he became a worker overnight.

The street is quite interested in Liu Yan's university degree, but the street office only has factories owned by the street collective, or state-owned grain and oil food stores. Liu Yan doesn't like these units.

From that day on, Liu Yan had nothing to do and stayed at home all day, playing with the colorful stamps he had accumulated since elementary school.

Seeing Zhou Haiyang busy every day, going out early and coming back late, Fan Lili couldn't stand it anymore.

She began to persuade Liu Yan to go abroad together, saying: "You don't have to live in the same city as your parents to go to the United States. The United States is so big, New York to Los Angeles is farther than Yanjing to Wucheng.

How do they care about you?

When Liu Yan heard what Fan Lili said, he walked to the world map on the wall and measured the distance with his fingers. He immediately felt that what Fan Lili said made sense and he might as well apply to a university in California.

However, to apply to study abroad, you must have a transcript issued by the school.

For this reason, Zhou Haiyang helped find a school teacher, and Liu Yan had to go back to school.

The teacher took Liu Yan to a small building in the school and said he had something to do and left first.

Unexpectedly, the house and corridors were packed with people.

After queuing for more than an hour, it was finally his turn.

After a teacher checked his information, he looked Liu Yan up and down.

Then he made a phone call, as if asking someone for instructions.

After hanging up the phone, I looked at him a few more times and then said, "I'm sorry, the school can't issue you a transcript."

"What?" Liu Yan was stunned, then asked: "Why?"

"You have to pay the training fee first."

"What training fee?" Liu Yan suddenly looked confused.

"The country spends so much money to train you. Not only do you disobey the country's allocation, but you also go abroad without serving the country. So you have to return the training fee to the country."

"Where is this stipulated? Why haven't I heard of it before? How much is it?" Liu Yan said as he took his wallet out of his arms and held it in his hand.

When the teacher saw this, he was stunned. He stared at Liu Yan with confusion written all over his face: "What's the matter? Do you really have 10,000 yuan in your pocket at any time?"

"What? Ten thousand?" Liu Yan exclaimed.

"That's right, two thousand five thousand per year, and the country trains you for four years, is it ten thousand? You are lucky to catch up with the policy that was just implemented this year." The teacher suddenly looked full of pride again.

At this moment, Liu Yan had not yet recovered from this sudden blow.

He muttered to himself: "Where can I find 10,000 yuan? Mad, it seems that I can only sell the monkey ticket in advance!"

Liu Yan pondered for a moment, and just when he decided to go home immediately and take out two versions of monkey stamps to exchange for money at the postal market, the teacher smiled slightly: "To tell you the truth, your situation is quite special. Even if you pay the training fee, the school will not necessarily

I can issue a report card for you."

"Why?" Liu Yan was stunned.

"The state stipulates that the service period for undergraduate graduates is five years. If you serve for one year, you can pay 2,000 yuan less in training fees, but this only applies to students who obey the state's allocation and have already started working.

It doesn’t seem like this is the case for you, right?

I specifically asked the Academic Affairs Office just now, and they also said that in a special situation like yours, I really don’t know what to do?”

"Teacher, it's not that I don't want to work, I just don't want to leave Ningcheng. Because my girlfriend is here and I don't want to be separated from her." Liu Yan continued: "It's just because I have no other choice that I want to go abroad with my girlfriend!

"

The teacher waved his hand and said, "It's really hard to tell in this situation anyway. Why don't you go to the Academic Affairs Office and ask after school starts. It's holiday now, and no one can make an idea."

…

Liu Yan could not remember at all how he left the small building and walked out of the school gate.

He walked in confusion on the street until he was awakened by the horn of a car passing by, and then he discovered that there was a newsstand on the side of the road.

He stared straight at a public telephone pressed onto a piece of cardboard.

After thinking for a while, I finally dialed Fan Lili's phone. It rang for a long time, but no one answered.

He put down the phone and continued walking forward aimlessly. He didn't know how long it took before he finally arrived at the door of his home.

He did not go home immediately, but squatted on the curb outside his family's courtyard, staring at the passing vehicles and pedestrians in a daze.

From the bottom of his heart, he envied everyone he saw in front of him. He felt that they were all free, could go where they wanted to go, and could do what they wanted to do. But he couldn't.

Liu Yan lowered his head sadly. The more he thought about it, the more aggrieved he felt, and the more desperate he became.

Suddenly, a large teardrop fell and hit the floor tile in front of him.

He couldn't remember the last time he shed tears. He couldn't remember whether it was in elementary school or junior high school.

After a while, he hurriedly wiped away the tears on his face.

When he was about to get up and go home, he found a pair of Thunderbolt sneakers in front of him.

Further up, there is a pair of Apple brand jeans, covering a pair of straight long legs.

Further up, there is a lapel Nike T-shirt, which outlines the graceful figure curve.

Further up, there is a familiar face: Fan Lili is looking at him with her head lowered and her face full of love.

He raised his face and looked at Fan Lili blankly, with a look of despair on his face, not knowing what to say.

Fan Lili's face was covered with sweat. She stretched out her two slender hands and pulled Liu Yan up hard.

Because he had been squatting for a long time, Liu Yan felt that his legs were numb and he could not stand firmly for a while.

Fan Lili staggered when he pulled her and almost fell down.

Fan Lili didn't say anything, but she heard Liu Yan yelling angrily: "Don't pull me, or you'll throw me to death!"

Fan Lili said with a trembling voice: "It's all my fault. I shouldn't have raised the issue of the country with you."

"What does this have to do with you? It's not like you don't give me a transcript." Liu Yan said angrily.

"Isn't it because of me? You were originally assigned to the 218 Research Institute, which is a unit that many people can't envy. It was me who held you back."

"Don't take everything for yourself!" Liu Yan roared.

Fan Lili's face was full of melancholy: "Forget it! If you can't go abroad, just don't go. I really wanted to go abroad before, but then you said that I can't go abroad. I can live well in Ningcheng. I won't go abroad in the future."

Think about it."

"I'm not stopping you, you can go abroad if you want." Liu Yan said angrily.
