Chapter 20: Chapter 20: Building a Closer Relationship_1
Everyone says that Russia is full of beautiful won, and in his past life, Wang Ye certainly saw many beautiful won during his years in Moscow.
But Angelina was the only one of such beauty he had ever co across…
Perhaps it was because he didn’t move in high circles and thus didn’t get the chance to see other top beauties.
Of course, that’s based on his aesthetic taste. To the Russian guys, Angelina might just be ordinarily beautiful and far from a top beauty.
After all, her figure wasn’t notably “bombshell”…
It can be said that Angelina was the first girl who touched Wang Ye’s heart after he arrived in Moscow.
But in his past life, he wouldn’t have dared to pursue her.
His financial situation was not good, coupled with the “oppression” of studies and work. He hardly had any ti left to pursue girls.
As far as he knew, a Latin Arican guy seed to have pursued Angelina as he was all spruced up and brought a large bouquet of flowers to Angelina’s office on Valentine’s Day.
But he ca back with a downcast look…
So, it didn’t seem to go well for him.
As for Angelina, Wang Ye didn’t know much about her. In his past life, their relationship was that of a teacher and student. Although they interacted a lot, they only discussed study-related matters without involving personal issues…
In this life, Wang Ye might have a chance to get closer to Angelina…
But that was still a future consideration. Until his basic “food and shelter” needs were t, his wallet could not afford to consider issues of pursuing girls.
Whether at ho or abroad, pursuing a girl was always costly…
Do not bla Wang Ye for being fickle. If he forgot about his “forrs” wife and children, it was because, after being reborn, he was destined to walk a completely different path from his previous life!
Since his life trajectory has completely deviated, the people he would et and the experiences he would have could not be the sa.
If he still kept the idea of repeating his past life, then his rebirth would be pointless…
……
Through Angelina’s introduction, Wang Ye learned that she was only 20 years old, had just graduated from the Russian Departnt of Friendship University, and was now working as a preparatory course teacher.
At this age, she was already a university graduate and able to teach. Even if she was just a prep teacher, it showed that Angelina must have perford exceptionally well in her studies.
However, as far as Wang Ye knew, the treatnt of preparatory teachers wasn’t good. They only got three to four hundred US dollars a month.
In a high-cost city like Moscow, this amount of money was just enough for one person to get by without much to spare.
Fortunately, the school provided teachers with dormitories. If they also had to rent a house on their own, this money would not be enough to rent a decent house!
Their preparatory course was straightforward in the morning, mainly focusing on learning Russian.
Classes started from 9:30 in the morning until around 2:00 in the afternoon, with only three major classes.
So there was no lunch at noon. During the break at around 12:00, you could go get so food to fill your stomach. No one had lunch.
Of course, when they get to their first year, there were more afternoon classes. The school had various small restaurants for lunch.
Unlike dostic universities, there was no so-called big dining hall here.
Instead, there were several small restaurants in each teaching building. The area was not too big, only able to seat a hundred or so students.
…
During the lunch break, Wang Ye went to the only convenience store on the first floor and bought a deep-fried pie.
This was one of the few foods that he liked.
The thin pie crust was filled with at and fried to a golden color. It tasted pretty good.
He also bought a bottle of iced Coca-Cola, which served as his lunch.
Many students also made do in the sa way…
After a simple al, Wang Ye returned to the third floor, but he didn’t go into the classroom, instead, he went to the end of the corridor.
Pushing open a door, this was a security passage, also known as the “smoking area”.
There were quite a lot of smokers in Russia, especially among the girls, who had an even higher smoking rate than the boys!
Sure enough, as soon as he opened the door, he saw many people gathered here, blowing smoke, including his teacher, Angelina…
In his past life, Wang Ye also smoked, but wasn’t a heavy smoker.
In fact, he picked up smoking during his study abroad in Moscow.
By the ti of his rebirth, he had been smoking for nearly twenty years, but he was never heavily addicted, only smoking about a pack every two or three days.
He also never fell ill because of smoking.
A few days ago, when he went to a large supermarket, Wang Ye couldn’t resist buying a carton of his favorite cigarettes.
Shoubainian’s “Black Russia”!
These cigarettes cost eight hundred and fifty rubles per pack, which was quite expensive.
Other brands like Marlboro only cost one hundred and fifty to sixty rubles per pack, and Parliant just over two hundred rubles.
The distinguishing feature of Black Russia was its flat, all-black hard pack. The upper part of the cigarette box was printed with a shiny, golden double-headed eagle national emblem!
The cigarette itself was black with a golden filter, which was also printed with a black double-headed eagle national emblem.
Those who didn’t know would certainly think that this was Russia’s “national cigarette”…
But it wasn’t. This brand was actually from the British Gallaher Group. It was unclear why Russia allowed them to print the Russian national emblem on it.
In Russia, smoking this cigarette was like smoking a premium brand at ho. It was prestigious!
……
Like many Russian girls, Angelina also smoked. However, she smoked slim cigarettes which had a very mild flavor.
After finishing one, it seed like she hadn’t had enough, so she took out her cigarette box to have another.
But when she opened the box, she found it empty…
She threw the empty cigarette box into the trash bin and was about to go back to her office when a hand extended with a black cigarette box.
“I have so here,” Wang Ye said with a smile.
Surprised, Angelina looked up at Wang Ye, recognizing him as her student.
After a slight hesitation, she took one cigarette from Wang Ye.
With a flick, Wang Ye lit the lighter.
She moved closer to Wang Ye’s hand, lit the cigarette, took a deep puff, and exhaled a cloud of blue smoke.
Only then did Angelina say, “Thank you.”
She didn’t think it was wrong for Wang Ye to smoke, nor did she an to reprimand him.
Here, the university was relatively liberal.
Even a fair number of university students got married and had children during their studies.
Moreover, you could take your marriage license and apply to the dormitory administrator for a single room for the couple. The administrator would never deny your request…
…
In the world of smokers, Angelina and Wang Ye quickly beca a little closer.
As they smoked, they chatted.
Initially, Angelina thought Wang Ye’s Russian was poor and that they wouldn’t be able to talk much.
But after chatting for a few monts, she was shocked to find that Wang Ye’s level of Russian was far beyond her expectations….
