Gu Xiaobei's words aroused the attention of Lu Zhanguo. As soon as Gu Xiaobei left for work in the morning, he went to see Shen Heng.
Seeing Lu Zhanguo come to him so early in the morning, Shen Heng was puzzled: "What's the matter this early?"
"I just wanted to ask which country did Yuan Tan study in?" Lu Zhanguo asked.
Shen Heng found it strange, dealing with this first thing in the morning: "Yuan Tan studied in F Country, everyone in the compound knows this. Her sister married a foreigner with a high nose bridge."
In the 1980s, when the reform had just opened up, there was a wave of studying abroad. In the early 1980s, there were fewer government-sponsored trips abroad, but many girls from big cities married foreigners to go overseas. Yuan Tan's sister, Yuan Ye, married a man from F Country, which provided Yuan Tan with the opportunity to study abroad.
