That place is not far from the steel mill and can be reached in a few minutes by bike.

At the destination, the third uncle was already waiting outside the restaurant.

Lin Fei, you're here. Hurry up and go inside

Seeing Lin Fei, Third Uncle's face was filled with joy.

Two people walked into the small private room of the restaurant, where a girl in her twenties was already sitting. She looked really nice.

She is somewhat similar to Qinhuairu, with two braids hanging over her shoulders, wearing a red woolen coat on her upper body, and a red and white interwoven scarf around her neck.

As soon as she saw Lin Fei come in, she stood up and greeted him with a slight smile.

Teacher Ran, let me introduce you to my neighbor, Lin Fei. Lin Fei, this is Teacher Ran Qiuye from our school. I'll go order a few dishes first and you guys can chat

San Da Ye gave a brief introduction and turned around before leaving.

Teacher Ran, I'm really sorry for keeping you waiting for so long

Lin Fei greeted Ran Qiuye with a smile on his face.

We just arrived not long ago, let's sit down first

Ran Qiuye had heard Yan Bugui talk about Lin Fei before, and originally thought it was an exaggeration. Today, when she saw it with her own eyes, she realized that Teacher Yan was telling the truth.

He is almost 1.8 meters tall and handsome. Although he works in a steel rolling mill, he does not have the rough feeling of ordinary workers. His beard is shaved clean, appearing gentle and polite.

At first glance, Ran Qiuye's fondness for Lin Fei doubled.

I heard that Teacher Ran teaches fifth grade children. That age is when they are lively and mischievous. You must have put a lot of effort into it, right

Lin Fei started the conversation and talked about her teaching work.

It's okay, actually it's not much different from when we used to go to school. Most children listen to their teachers quite well, but there are always one or two particularly mischievous ones

Ran Qiuye smiled and didn't seem to think that her job was too difficult.

I can see that you are a very responsible and good teacher

From the sincere joy and satisfaction that Lin Fei felt when Ran Qiuye talked about students, he could feel that she was indeed an excellent educator.

You're exaggerating. I heard that you graduated from a vocational school, but you voluntarily requested to work in the workshop. Is this true

After responding politely, Ran Qiuye turned around and asked about Lin Fei's situation.

Although there are many people in our steel rolling mill, they are all doing national level tasks with clear technical standards. In the technical department, to be honest, life is quite boring

I think it's more practical to go to the workshop and learn some real skills by hand rather than wasting time in the technical department

Lin Fei's words are not from the bottom of his heart. If possible, he certainly hopes to stay in the office, but with the skills of a fitter, it seems more practical to earn more money in the workshop.

It was not easy for you to have such an idea back then

Ran Qiuye sincerely praised.

She has met many proud yet mediocre people, and even among her classmates, there are those who only pursue a comfortable office by attending vocational school. When it comes to things in the factory, they always have a sense of superiority.

It's not a big deal, there's actually a practical reason. Technicians' salaries are not high, but working in the workshop can earn more income

Lin Fei smiled and confessed his true motive.

You're so humorous

Ran Qiuye naturally didn't believe Lin Fei's superficial words. Her initial feeling told her that Lin Fei was a person with goals and pursuits.

I heard from Teacher Yan that you have been self-learning before, preparing to take the college entrance exam. Are you still continuing now

Lin Fei turned to inquire about Ran Qiuye's learning situation.

I didn't continue. At that time, I had been self-learning for three years but still couldn't get into the exam. At first, I was a bit unwilling, but later I thought about it and realized that this is also quite good now

Speaking of taking the college entrance exam, Ran Qiuye smiled, clearly feeling relieved.

In fact, going to college doesn't necessarily require passing the college entrance examination. I am currently self-learning college courses and only have two left. If I pass the exam, I can obtain a degree

Lin Fei knew that one of the good ways to bring each other closer was to find common interests or ideas.

Since Ran Qiuye aspires to go to college, it shows that she loves learning, and bringing up this topic can leave a good impression on her.

I never expected that after working in the workshop all day, you still have the energy to self-study. In comparison, I am much behind

After hearing this, Ran Qiuye paid tribute to Lin Feiman.

She thought it was her busy work schedule that affected her studies, but as a result, she didn't get into college.

Compared with Lin Fei, I found that I actually have more free time, obviously because I haven't worked hard enough.

This is different. I directly took college courses and skipped the college entrance examination. It's much easier than self-study high school courses from scratch

I also thought about whether or not to self-study high school content to take the college entrance examination, but later on, I thought about it. Isn't going to college just for learning knowledge? Why do we have to take the college entrance examination as a path? Just learn something and you're good

For me, a university degree is just a certification of my mastery of the knowledge I have learned

Lin Fei shared his unique perspective on going to college.
