    AV Shooting Guide – Daily Life after Marriage: 520 Special (8)

    Qiao Qiao picked up the ball and looked at the light.The silicon crystal shows a transparent black color under incandescent light, and the edges are blurred by the light, like a black crystal.

    “The beauty of geometry.” Zhou Yuanchuan stared at it infatuatedly. “The circle is the most perfect shape. Can you imagine? The world we see is made of it, as small as a proton, as large as the entire galaxy, and even you and me.”

    Most women in the world can’t understand the romance of men with science backgrounds, and neither does Qiao Qiao.But when she looked back at Zhou Yuanchuan, she found that his eyes were full of excitement, like a child who finally got his favorite toy. He was happy that he could give Qiao Qiao such a “perfect” gift.

    “Do you like it?” Zhou Yuanchuan asked.

    “I like it so much!” Qiao Qiao hugged Zhou Yuanchuan’s neck and said with a smile, “My husband is so awesome. The gifts he gives me are so…so…so awesome!”

    After searching through the poor vocabulary, I couldn’t find a suitable word to describe it.

    Zhou Yuanchuan was satisfied, and a shy blush rose on his cheeks, feeling embarrassed by the praise.

    “You just said you did it yourself?” Qiao Qiao asked smoothly.

    “Well, I’ve been working on it for about half a year. The main reason is that the approval is more troublesome.”

    “Approval?”

    “Because silicon-28 is difficult to purify, and there are not many centrifuges that meet the requirements. It would be too time-consuming to rebuild one in the laboratory, so we can only temporarily borrow the state’s machines.” “The state’s machines refer to…”

    “Yeah, the kind that makes nuclear weapons.”

    “…”

    The sky was completely dark. Zhou Yuanchuan didn’t know where he pressed the button, and the entire arched dome of the observatory was suddenly lit up. Countless small blue wall lamps formed the twenty-eight stars. Looking up, the stars were brilliant.

    “Wow!” Qiao Qiao had never seen such a scene before. She ran around excitedly and wanted to go up on the ladder to get a closer look, but Zhou Yuanchuan helplessly hugged her down.

    “Did you do all this?!”

    “Well, I originally wanted to show you the real star map, but the season is wrong and many constellations cannot be seen in the northern hemisphere at this time.”

    “I think this is already super beautiful!” Qiao Qiao couldn’t help but repeat, “It’s super beautiful. I think it might be even more beautiful than looking at the real constellations!”

    She paused and then said with a bit of regret: “It’s a pity that there are no shooting stars.”

    “Want to see meteors?” Zhou Yuanchuan thought for a moment, “You should be able to see the Aries meteor shower in May.”

    “Forget it, forget it.” Qiao Qiao smiled and waved his hand, “Meteor showers are rare. They are so easy to see.”

    “Actually, there are meteor showers every day.”

    “…but not now, right?” Qiao Qiao tugged on Zhou Yuanchuan’s sleeve, “Don’t worry about that, tell me how to read the star map?”

    Zhou Yuanchuan pulled out a book and handed it over, “You can compare it with this. It’s very detailed. If you don’t have any foundation, you may find it obscure when I tell you.”

    Qiao Qiao took this thick stargazing guide with an expression that was hard to describe.

    Who really wants to recognize the stars? If I couldn’t even find the North Star for the past twenty years, wouldn’t I be able to live a good life?

    “The book is too thick, I feel dizzy when I read it…”

    “There are colorful pictures in it, with just a few words.” Zhou Yuanchuan touched Qiao Qiao’s head comfortingly, “Wait a moment, I’ll go out and make a phone call.”

    Qiao Qiao had no choice but to give up the idea of continuing to act coquettishly and flip through books to pass the time.

    After a while, Zhou Yuanchuan came back with obvious joy on his face: “There will be a meteor shower in the northeast in half an hour.”

    “Really?” Qiao Qiao said happily, “I’m so lucky. I just wanted to see it after I said it. How did you know?”

    Zhou Yuanchuan smiled mysteriously and did not answer the question directly. He pointed to the arched dome of the observatory and said, “Let’s go up there and see. This meteor shower is quite large. You can see it without a telescope.”

    “It’s so great!” Qiao Qiao almost jumped up with joy, “I’m so excited! This is my first time to encounter a real meteor shower!”

    She couldn’t wait to run up the spiral staircase and took a few steps to the rooftop. Zhou Yuanchuan followed her unhurriedly and put the phone in his pocket into silent mode.

    Because the entire Chinese aviation industry is about to explode now.

    “What’s going on? Isn’t 079G running well? Why did it fall into the atmosphere?” A chief technical engineer of Beihang Heavy Industry said angrily in the internal group.

    “The observation mission is over. The solar panels are as brittle as biscuits. If they don’t crash, they will lose control after a while.” Another person continued below.

    “Didn’t I just switch it off last month to test the satellite’s usage limit? Its power can last for at least another year.”

    “Oh, there are so many satellites in the sky, this one is the best.” Someone else suggested.

    “That’s not what happened! Who made the decision?” Beihang’s chief engineer puffed his beard and glared.

    “Me.” A strange account suddenly appeared.

    “Who are you? Who knows you if you don’t even change your business card?”

    “Ahem, Chief Master. He is Professor Zhou…”

    “Which Professor Zhou?”

    “Who else is Professor Zhou…”

    The chief engineer of Beihang University was silent, and after a while he held back a sentence: “At least give me a reason? My team has always been responsible for this satellite. Although the service period has expired early, falling into the atmosphere is really…”

    “Experimental needs.” The answer was still concise and to the point.

    At this time, no one in the group made a sound. The technician in charge of control bravely said weakly: “079G has departed from the predetermined orbit as planned, and will fall into the atmosphere in less than ten minutes.”

    “Thank you.” After the unfamiliar account said this, the profile picture turned gray.

    “Professor Zhou is so dedicated. He still cares about experiments so late…”

    “That’s right, otherwise I can win the Nobel Prize.”

    The messages stopped scrolling in the group, and Zhou Yuanchuan also put down his phone.He turned his attention to Qiao Qiao. The girl was lying on the fence looking at the sky expectantly, for fear of missing the moment when the meteor appeared. She turned around and saw Zhou Yuanchuan’s absent-minded expression, and said with a slight dissatisfaction: “Don’t be distracted! What if you miss the meteor? We have to watch it together.”

    Can’t miss it.

    Zhou Yuanchuan counted silently in his mind, there were still thirty seconds left, 29, 28…

    “By the way, are you accurate in thirty minutes? Will meteors be delayed like planes?”

    21, 20…

    “Although I’m very tired today, I feel so happy when I see shooting stars!”

    10, 9…

    “What wish can I make now? I feel like my life is quite complete, hahaha!”

    3, 2, 1

    “Or I’ll just—”

    Zhou Yuanchuan suddenly took Qiao Qiao’s face and kissed it heavily.

    Qiao Qiao’s eyes widened. She was so surprised that she even forgot to react.Because through Zhou Yuanchuan’s shoulder, she saw a fireball with a long trail rolling across the dark sky. The firelight illuminated half of the sky in bright red.But it all happened in less than a blink of an eye.

    The sky darkened quickly, and Zhou Yuanchuan let go of her, with a hint of man’s taste still lingering on his lips.

    “Is it beautiful?”

    “It’s quite beautiful.” Qiao Qiao hesitated and asked, “Are you sure this is the meteor tonight?”

    “What’s wrong?”

    “Is it… a little too fat?”

    “Isn’t it a silver thread?”

    “Where is the silver thread? It’s just a fireball…”

    At twelve o’clock that night, the aviation circle’s internal group became lively again.

    “Did you all see it too? Tsk, tsk, tsk, it’s really spectacular! Where is Professor Zhou? Come on! The wake is so clear and the shape is so beautiful. I heard that it was only burned out when it was only 5,000 meters above the ground.”

    “Of course.” Beihang’s chief engineer jumped out triumphantly, “I personally checked the material of 079G. It is absolutely high-temperature resistant material. If it hadn’t been in service for a long time and suffered some wear and tear, it might not even be burned when it hits the ground.”

    “…” The unfamiliar account sent a string of dots.

    “Professor Zhou is online!”

    “How was Professor Zhou’s experiment?”

    “Failed.”

    “Huh?”

    “No way?”

    The group started chattering and discussing: “That one is burning very well! It shouldn’t be.”

    After discussing for a long time, someone finally got the key point: “What is Professor Zhou studying?”

    “…not important.”

    Much later, Qiao Qiao accidentally saw on the Internet that a well-known foreign laboratory had also made what was said to be the roundest sphere.

    “It’s not very round either.” Qiao Qiao thought sourly, “My one is cuter.”

    His fingers slid down casually, and he suddenly saw a line of small words below the picture: A single sphere costs more than five million US dollars.

    Qiao Qiao was dumbfounded.

    “Husband!” Qiao Qiao ran downstairs, and Song Qiyan, who was working on the files in the study, heard the sound and raised his head, “What’s wrong?”

    “I want to snitch!”

    “Whose?”

    “Zhou Yuanchuan! He spends money randomly!”
