Chapter 228: Chapter 174: I Grew Up_2

Han Yu asked persistently, "Did Director Xu not say anything else?"

"He told us to enjoy ourselves, didn’t say anything else. Oh right, I borrowed the cara from your departnt, help

take so photos at the bow later."

"Did you buy a ticket for the Bai Shen?"

"I did, I bought a scattered seat ticket and stayed in the onboard police cabin, Brother Shao arranged it."

Having acquaintances is great, traveling costs a lot less.

Han Xiangning chuckled and started browsing through her younger schoolmate’s books.

Han Yu’s cabin was like a small library, the desk was neatly covered with books, and the upper bunk had all kinds of marine and ship technology books and magazines, along with many newspapers published by the transportation system.

"Astronomical navigation, terrestrial navigation, ship avoidance, nautical instrunts, mariti teorology, duties and mariti regulations, ship art, English... Salted Fish, are you preparing for the seaman officer promotion exams?"

"I’ll work for two more months after the holiday is over, and then it will have been a year since I started my apprenticeship on the ship, of course, I want to take the exams."

"Have you written your internship summary?"

"I finished it a long ti ago."

"Let

have a look when you’re done."

She used to work in the Seaman Examination Departnt, doing this kind of work, so Han Yu believed she could help with supervision and couldn’t help but smile, "Alright."

As Han Xiangning flipped through the pages, she suddenly ca across a calendar featuring a beautiful woman, and the girl on the calendar looked very familiar.

"Salted Fish, this is Lin Xiaohui!"

"Yeah, isn’t she pretty and stylish?"

"She’s on a calendar, looking like a star."

"She only did this one shoot for the calendar, didn’t do any more, nor did any advertising work."

Clothes make the man, as the saying goes.

Dressed in fashionable clothes and well-grood, she was unrecognizable from before.

Han Xiangning looked left and right, feeling a bit sour, and couldn’t help asking, "Are you still calling her every day?"

"How could I call every day, maybe two or three tis a month."

"Aren’t you two no longer talking, why do you still keep in touch?"

"Sister Ningning, we both co from the shipping company. It’s not a big deal if I don’t know she’s in East Sea, but if I know, surely I would call and ask. Besides, it’s not just her in East Sea, Xiao i is there too."

People on the ship are all very united, helping each other out in tis of trouble.

His father changed ships, and although he borrowed more than a hundred thousand from the bank, it was still not enough, so the rest was borrowed from old neighbors of the shipping company.

Thinking about these, Han Xiangning suddenly realized he grew up playing with Lin Xiaohui and Liu Xiaoi, and even if they were not dating, it would be impossible not to keep in touch. Curious, she asked, "Did she make it to the finals?"

"She made it to the finals but didn’t win first or second place, nor third."

"That’s too bad. If she could have made it to the top three, she could have beco a star."

"It’s a bit disappointing."

Han Yu poured a glass of water for his senior sister and sat down smiling, "Actually, she didn’t really care about making it to the top three, she registered because the factory required it."

Han Xiangning put down the calendar and watched him with a smile, asking, "How is she doing now, has she changed careers?"

"She’s doing well. An advertising company approached her, wanting her to be a model and shoot ads exclusively for them. Also, a company wanted her to participate in so big modeling competition next year."

"That ans she’s hit the jackpot!"

"She didn’t go for it; she continued working at the factory, and her manager was very happy. She originally wanted to go work in the sample room as a cutter, but her manager didn’t allow it."

"What is she doing now?"

"She’s a foreman, managing a workshop."

Lin Xiaohui got promoted and received a raise, and Han Yu was genuinely happy for her, but then laughed and said, "She originally wanted to take the self-study exams, but her manager said what she’d learn from the self-study exams wouldn’t be of use to her, so the factory paid for her to attend night school to learn managent."

The modeling competition was a novelty, but not many people knew about it.

If it weren’t for her younger schoolmate ntioning it in a letter, Han Xiangning would have no idea, let alone pay any attention.

Ever since she knew about it, she has not only been very interested in the competition held in East Sea but also beca quite knowledgeable about it. She was well aware that just being able to make it to the finals of the competition, though not resulting in overnight fa or teoric rise, would make it easy for a model to find a better job.

Han Xiangning never imagined that Lin Xiaohui would return to work in Qibao Town. She exclaid, "Salted Fish, people who co from your shipping company really are different from others."

Regarding Lin Xiaohui’s choice, Han Yu was both surprised and reflective, quietly saying, "Going for ads or becoming a professional model, she felt it was not solid, not reliable."

"What does she want to do then?"

"She herself doesn’t know either. She only knows that on the ship you need to be able to row, pilot the ship, negotiate business and find cargo; onshore, you must have a skill, you can’t just rely on your looks to earn a living."

"Salted Fish, I’ve noticed she’s a lot like your sister, who’s also amazing, working every day and then attending night school after work."

"You’ve t my sister?"

"Your nephew turned one, and all of you in Linghai were hosting. You, as his uncle, couldn’t make it, so your master had Sister Zhang Lan call

to go on your behalf."

"Almost forgot, Xunxun is already one!"

"We had six tables, hosted at Sansing; your parents couldn’t make it either. Your sister-in-law is very nice; she said it was okay."

"Sister Ningning, thank you."

"What for?"

"Thank you for going in my place."

Han Xiangning found herself becoming his second kind of ’sister’, and with a mix of humor and earnestness, said, "You should not just thank , you also have to reimburse ."

Han Yu asked subconsciously, "Reimburse for gas?"

Han Xiangning stretched out her hand confidently, saying, "Not just the gas money, but also the red envelope money for your nephew. Your sister gave fifty, I also gave fifty for you!"
