The University of Penang is located in the north of Northland, surrounded by the sea on three sides. In fact, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is surrounded by the sea on all sides. The only border line connected to the mainland only accounts for one-sixth of the entire Penang.It is windy and snowy every day.However, the climate here is not easy to accumulate snow. It often snows for half a day and melts before night.Of course, it is not uncommon for the sun to snow.

Lu Chen, who has never been out of Yinghe River in his life, feels that he has come to another world - a world where people freeze to death.

Lu Chen wrapped himself in two padded jackets, and walked towards the Chinese Department while stepping on knee-deep snow.He didn't sleep all night last night, but he wasn't sleepy at all in the morning, because it was so cold that he woke up from the freeze as soon as he went out.

He purposely left early, for fear of meeting Shen Yi.But I didn't sleep at all, and I didn't go early or late.

The snow scene is beautiful, and Lu Chen has to stop after a few steps to enjoy it and take some photos.The snow is not cold, and the snow is cold, and he is sweating all over the road after stepping on the heavy snow.It's hot inside and cold outside, not to mention how uncomfortable it is.

The Chinese Department is in Building No. 50, and 24 meters to the north is the library. There are floor-to-ceiling windows throughout the library. Through the windows, Lu Chen can see that the library is full of people, probably students who are taking the postgraduate entrance examination.Unlike Rice College, Penang University's library is open [-] hours.

The other side of the library is the sea. It is said that the boundary of the library was reclaimed from the sea. After the original planning, the area was not enough, so part of the sea was filled.But Lu Chen looked at this pedestrian street that can drive buses and two-way buses, and didn't think there was anything insufficient.

Hey, big schools are rich and willful.

Waiting for Lu Chen to stop and go all the way, admiring the scenery along the way, arrived at the Chinese Department, and it was almost time to go to work.

Lu Chen sat on the bench in the corridor, rubbing his frozen hands and waiting for the office to open.

Ten minutes later, a short woman with short hair and a pair of transparent pink glasses framed on her nose stood at the door of the office.

Lu Chen hurried up to say hello, "Hi, I'm a newly transferred teacher, I would like to ask where is the entry procedure?"

The short woman raised her neck and said to Lu Chen, "Oh, then come in first and wait, the director will be here soon."

"OK, thanks."

Lu Chen bowed, and the female teacher led him in.

The female teacher took a cup of hot water from the water dispenser with a disposable paper cup and handed it to Lu Chen. After thanking Lu Chen, he carefully held the paper cup with his disobedient hands to keep warm.Until the hands itched a bit, a man in a suit and leather shoes came in at the door, his clothes were ironed, and he was very energetic.Apart from the fact that the hair color is a bit grizzled, you can see some age.

This is Huo Siyuan, the director of the Chinese Department of the University of Penang.

The entry procedures were completed in the morning, and I officially started the job the next day.Lu Chen's mental head was stretched to the limit, and he had to sigh that he was really old.He doesn't really want to go back to the rented house, because he always feels that there are bad things in it.The only place to party for a while is the library.

Lu Chen yelled at the sky, the heavy snow had just stopped, otherwise it would have fallen into his mouth.The water vapor from Kazakhstan instantly pierced the eyes, and there was a faint tendency to be unable to open them.

Lu Chen struggled to walk towards the library, but was dumbfounded when he entered the door.On the first to third floors, there are hundreds of tables and six times the number of chairs, and there is no place for him to rest for a while.

Fortunately, the University of Penang has the largest library in the entire province. There are not enough tables and chairs, but there is still enough land.Lu Chen dragged himself up to the third floor—the third floor was the least crowded, so he found a corner and nestled himself in.When I close my eyes, I don't know anything.

Shen Yi borrowed a blanket from the librarian and gently covered the sleeping person in front of him.The blanket is a bit thin, and the administrator prepared it for hand warming.Now that the floor heating is turned on, luckily it was turned on, so Shen Yi borrowed it to use it.

Shen Yi is already a sophomore, because he joined the drama club, it is common for him to spend nights in the library writing scripts.A few years older, but also know how to deal with people.

"Sister, don't tell him that I've been here," Shen Yi said to a girl before leaving.

The girl is one level older than him and works part-time in the library.Hearing this, he looked suspiciously at Lu Chen who was lying on the ground and unconscious.

"Do you know?"

"Well, it's a long story. I have class in the afternoon and I will leave first. Let's talk later."

Shen Yi didn't say anything else, he put on the hat on his down jacket and left with two books he just borrowed between his hands.

Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, the heavy snow did not know when it would rise again.

When Lu Chen woke up, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon.It was woken up by the sudden heat.The floor heating in the library is a bit harsh, and when I open my eyes, my throat feels dry.

As soon as he turned over, he first looked at the doraemon on the powder-blue blanket covering him for a long time, and his throat was about to bleed after a while.Lu Chen didn't have time to think about why Penang University still has this service, it's so considerate.The legs and feet have gone straight to the water dispenser.But there are no disposable paper cups inside, and students bring their own cups.Lu Chen threw the blanket at the service desk on the third floor, said hoarsely, "Put it here first", then turned around and ran to the toilet.

Fortunately, toilets are easy to find, otherwise, Teacher Lu would be the only teacher in the history of Penang University who died of thirst on the first day of employment.At the same time, it broke the double wonderful record.

Lu Chen took a big sip of water and wiped his face by the way, the tired look on his face receded a little.Lu Chen leaned on the sink and looked at himself in the mirror, with dark circles under his eyes, hair messed up because of wearing a hat, and a beard shaved before he came here. He was not at all energetic, unlike a young man in his twenties.It's not as good as Huo Siyuan's look.

Hey, life can't be lived like this, even if you pretend, you have to pretend to be energetic.

Lu Chen vigorously washed his face again, and when he buried his face in the cold hands, he felt tears come out accidentally.Not to mention, it's quite warm.

When Lu Chen came to the service desk on the third floor, he saw that the doraemon blanket had been put away.This further confirms the status of Penang University as an institution of higher learning, and this service is also great.

"That... thank you", Lu Chen bowed slightly to the girl on the service desk.

The girl didn't say anything, just smiled.

The snow outside was another foot deep, and Lu Chen sighed, although the snow is beautiful, it can't be done in this way.
