Having friends fills my heart completely.

Yang Zheng was no longer self-conscious or reserved. He followed behind Liu Dabao, carefully observing the temperature. When they encountered something they didn't understand, he humbly asked the master for advice.

When eating, Liu Dabao brought meat and always shared more than half with Yang Zheng.

Liu Dabao was the foreman of the heating furnace team, and his colleagues were naturally very friendly to Yang Zheng.

Happy days, full of youthful vigor. Yang Zheng, originally from the countryside, was full of inexhaustible energy and eagerly took on all the work in the class.

Besides going to work, Yang Zheng borrowed the factory's technical reference book from Liu Dabao and studied it carefully. He was full of hope for his future.

Half a month passed in the blink of an eye. Yang Zheng finished his early shift and returned to the dormitory with his clean clothes. He met his roommate Lu Han for the first time.

Upon opening the dormitory door, Lu Han was drawing blueprints at his desk.

"You, you're Lu Han?"

Lu Han raised his eyes, looked at Yang Zheng, and said coldly, "I was only away on a business trip for a few days, and the house has already been occupied."

"I..." Yang Zheng was focused on getting along well with his colleagues and roommates, but apart from Liu Dabao, it seemed like everyone disliked him.

Lu Han ignored him and continued drawing on the blueprint.

Yang Zheng quietly closed the door, went to the balcony, and hung up the clothes that he had washed that day.

She tiptoed back to her bed, picked up the internal reference book, and began to read it seriously.

Yang Zheng knew that Lu Han was a college student and a senior engineer in the factory. He was capable and naturally wouldn't take him seriously.

The room was so quiet that only the sounds of paintbrushes and turning pages could be heard. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

"Lu Han, are you back?"

It was that girl named Kong Xiange. Lu Han seemed not to hear her and continued drawing, while the knocking continued and the shouts grew louder.

Yang Zheng got up and opened the door. Kong Xiange completely ignored Yang Zheng and ran to Lu Han's desk, saying, "Lu Han, when did you get back?"

"Comrade Kong Qiange, is there something you need?" Lu Han was forced to put down his pen and asked coldly.

"Lu Han, Jufeng Restaurant has added a lot of new dishes. I'd like to invite you to eat there."

Kong Xiange disregarded Lu Han's indifference and extended a warm invitation.

"Thank you, no need."

"Why do you keep everyone at arm's length?" Kong Xiange said coquettishly.

"I just returned from Shanghai and have a lot of official business to attend to. Please don't disturb my work, Comrade Kong Xiange," Lu Han said sternly.

Lu Han disliked Kong Xiange, Yang Zheng thought sadly.

"Workers need to eat too, it's just for one hour, okay?" Kong Xiange pleaded humbly.

Lu Han's face darkened. He opened the drawer, took out a lunchbox and a few meal tickets, and said, "Yang Zheng, go to the cafeteria and get me four liang of rice, one meat dish and one vegetable dish. This is nine mao."

"Oh..." Yang Zheng awkwardly took the lunchbox, not understanding what Lu Han meant.

"Lu Han, do you hate me that much?" Kong Xiange's eyes reddened.

"Comrade Kong Xiange, we are just ordinary colleagues, and it's not a matter of whether I dislike you or not. However, please don't bother my work in the future."

"You...you..." Kong Xiange was extremely embarrassed, her face flushed red. Even though Lu Han's words were so harsh, she had no intention of leaving.

Yang Zheng really wanted to step forward and say a few words of advice. Even if he didn't like the person, he didn't have to be so heartless.

Before he could even speak, Lu Han roared, "Yang Zheng, I told you to go buy food, didn't you hear me?"

Yang Zheng was startled and quickly grabbed his lunchbox, fleeing the dormitory as if he were running away.

I finish my early shift at 4 PM, and it's only 5 PM now. The cafeteria doesn't open until 5:30 PM, so I have half an hour to go.

Yang Zheng could only wander around the playground. After a while, he saw Kong Xiange running out with tears in her eyes.

Sigh, it seems Lu Han is arrogant and difficult to get along with.

The thought of having to see each other every day from now on gave Yang Zheng a headache.

After getting two boxed meals, Yang Zheng returned to his dormitory and quietly opened the door.

Living with such a proud college student requires being extremely careful in everything you do.

Lu Han took the lunchbox and said, "Thank you."

The two ate their meals separately, and Lu Han said, "Yang Zheng, if Kong Xiange comes to see me in the future, don't open the door."

He knew his name. "Yes."

"Also, we'll be sharing a room, so no outsiders are allowed in the dorm, and no loud noises are permitted."

"it is good."

"You are not allowed to touch these blueprints."

"Um."

Do you snore at night?

Even the unequal treaties of the late Qing Dynasty weren't as sharp as his.

"I shouldn't snore, right?" At home, he sleeps with his grandfather and has never mentioned that he snores.

After the unequal treaty was signed, Lu Han ate his meal while looking at the blueprints, no longer speaking to Yang Zheng.

Fortunately, Yang Zheng had the craft book that Liu Dabao gave him, as well as two books about machinery that his sister brought him; otherwise, how would he have gotten through this long night?

The next day was another early shift. When Yang Zheng opened his eyes, he was surprised to find that Lu Han hadn't slept all night.

"You, you didn't sleep?" Yang Zheng stammered.

"Oh, it's dawn now. I'm in Shanghai, and I've seen their advanced technology. I have some ideas that I need to draw down, otherwise I'll forget them." Lu Han's voice was a little hoarse.

"Can our factory use it?" Yang Zheng asked hesitantly.

"Times are advancing, and our factory must keep pace. If we don't move forward, we will fall behind. National construction requires a large amount of high-quality steel, and we must keep up with the pace so that we won't be eliminated."

Are we thinking too far ahead? Huailin Machinery Factory is receiving orders like snowflakes, and we can't keep up even by working overtime.

"Would you like me to buy you breakfast?"

"No need, I have to go to work, I'll just go to the cafeteria for breakfast." Lu Han stretched and got up to wash up.

He has a bad temper, but he is very dedicated to his work.

Back in the workshop, Yang Zheng felt completely at ease. After a night of feeling stifled, he felt much more comfortable with Liu Dabao.

"Hey, I heard your roommate is back?" Liu Dabao asked casually.

"Yeah, his name is Lu Han. He's not easy to deal with. He's cold to me and fierce to girls too," Yang Zheng couldn't help but complain.

"Is it Kong Qiange?"

"How did you know it was Kong Qiange? Do you know her?" Yang Zheng asked curiously.

"Everyone in the factory knows that Kong Xiange likes Lu Han, but Lu Han doesn't care about Kong Xiange," Liu Dabao said with a smile.

"Brother Liu, what kind of woman do you think Lu Han likes? Kong Xiange is so beautiful and so accommodating to him. In the end, Lu Han scolded her away."

Yang Zheng admired Lu Han's work ethic, but his attitude towards girls was less than impressive.

"Did he even insult Kong Qiange?" Liu Dabao pressed.

"Exactly. Even if someone is talented, there's no need to trample on their dignity like that. Kong Xiange is so beautiful, there must be many people who like her. Why does she have to like the cold and aloof Lu Han?" Yang Zheng shook his head in confusion.

Liu Dabao smiled awkwardly: "Perhaps, this is a debt of love from a past life."
