When Chen Hansheng was about to enter the station with a big bag of snacks, Shen Youchu realized that Chen Hansheng was also going to Chuanyu. She was stunned.
"Anyway, we're going anyway. It doesn't matter if we go later or earlier."
Chen Hansheng pulled her forward. After getting on the train, Shen Youchu realized that it was not a hard seat or a hard sleeper, but a soft sleeper for four people.
Shen Youchu had never sat on a hard sleeper before. She was a little scared when she was directly upgraded to a soft sleeper.
She gently touched the white bed and only dared to sit on half of her buttocks carefully. She had to support herself with both hands.
Chen Hansheng couldn't stand it anymore. "Are you worried that the train will collapse?"
"No, no."
Shen Youchu raised her head and said anxiously, "It's too expensive."
"Don't worry. We still have to take a plane in the future." Chen Hansheng said with a smile.
Chen Hansheng didn't sit much. He casually took off his shoes and lay down on the lower bunk. He used the quilt as a pillow, put his feet on the edge of the bed, and read the newspaper leisurely.
Wang Zibo had never taken a train before. His range of action was limited to Sudong Province, so he ran to the folding chair in the corridor outside and focused on the scenery along the way.
Shen Youchu gradually got used to it. She also took off her shoes and sat on the bed. She hugged her knees and silently recited the English textbook.
Chen Hansheng felt very strange. Shen Youchu seemed to spend a lot of time reading English.
"Why do you always read this stuff?"
"My English is bad."
Shen Youchu whispered.
Chen Hansheng suddenly became interested. "What's your score in the English College Entrance Examination?"
Shen Youchu lowered her head and didn't answer.
"Tell me, even if it's a zero, it's nothing to be ashamed of."
Chen Hansheng put down the newspaper and asked.
"It's, it's a zero."
Shen Youchu hugged her knees even tighter. "On the day of the English exam, my grandfather passed away. I stayed at home to accompany my mother-in-law."
The car suddenly quieted down. Wang Zibo also heard the conversation from outside. He mumbled, "If you add English, you can go to Eastern University."
Chen Hansheng took out the snacks and said to Wang Zibo, "Go and boil some water and make three bowls of noodles."
After Wang Zibo left, Chen Hansheng closed the door of the private room and sat next to Shen Youchu. "Did you miss Grandpa?"
"Yes."
Shen Youchu raised her head, her tears dripping down like pearls onto the bedsheets. She missed her family, but also felt helpless because she had missed the English exam and changed her fate.
Chen Hansheng helped her wipe away her tears and placed Shen Youchu's feet in his palms. Her socks were a little thin, and there were densely packed needle and thread marks on her feet. It seemed that she had been mended many times.
Shen Youchu was embarrassed and wanted to shrink back. Chen Hansheng didn't let her. Instead, he gently rubbed her feet until the temperature of her feet slowly rose. A warm current flowed from the soles of her feet into Shen Youchu's heart.
"Are you feeling better?"
Chen Hansheng asked.
"Thank, thank you."
Shen Youchu looked at Chen Hansheng blankly.
"You're welcome."
Chen Hansheng pretended to wipe his hands in disgust. "But you have to wash your feet more often. It stinks."
Shen Youchu shyly shrank her feet into the quilt and whispered, "It doesn't stink."
After opening the door, Wang Zibo had already prepared the instant noodles. Chen Hansheng asked Shen Youchu to eat.
Shen Youchu still didn't forget the steamed buns she brought. The weather in Jianye was so cold that the steamed buns had already become cold and hard. She broke them into small pieces and put them into the instant noodles, eating them with the broth.
Seeing Chen Hansheng and Wang Zibo staring at her, she whispered, "I, I want to eat steamed buns."
Chen Hansheng sighed. He took two steamed buns for himself and handed two to Wang Zibo. "Eat them at noon. The longer you delay, the worse they taste."
Wang Zibo didn't refuse. He grabbed the steamed buns and stuffed them into the instant noodles. After he finished eating, Chen Hansheng pulled Wang Zibo to the junction between the carriages to smoke.
"I didn't expect Xiao Shen to be such a pitiful person."
Wang Zibo shook his head and said, "It's just that her personality is too good. Xiao Chen, you always meet good women."
Chen Hansheng laughed, "I didn't say that I don't want bad women."
… ….
It was very easy for people to fall asleep on the train. Listening to the sound of the train, coupled with the rocking nature of the train, Chen Hansheng and Wang Zibo chatted about their hometown, and unknowingly, they fell asleep.
Until someone opened the door of the carriage, Chen Hansheng opened his eyes in a daze and saw a female university student walking in.
She was in her early twenties. She was neither tall nor short, had a delicate and pretty face, and had a small fringe. After she came in, she took a look, then tiptoed and wanted to put the package on the luggage rack.
However, the luggage rack was a little high, she raised it a few times but still couldn't put it on the luggage rack. Shen Youchu put down her book and wanted to help, Chen Hansheng shouted sleepily, "Zibo, get up and help."
Wang Zibo was also sleeping. After he was woken up, he rubbed his eyes and jumped off the bed to help the female university student put the luggage on the luggage rack.
"Thank you."
The female university student thanked him politely. Unexpectedly, she also had a Sichuan and Yu accent, "Which university are you from?"
Chen Hansheng was sleeping and didn't want to talk to her, and Shen Youchu didn't have any social skills. In the end, Wang Zibo could only talk to her while stuttering.
Chen Hansheng didn't expect the two of them to hit it off so well. When he opened his eyes, it was already evening. The dim sunset hung far in the sky. The setting sun shone through the car window onto the corridor, but there wasn't a trace of warmth.
The train passed by the villages and hills on the side of the road without stopping. Chen Hansheng inexplicably felt a kind of pity that time had passed so quickly.
"Xiao Chen, this is Huang Hui, a senior at Sudong University of Science and Technology. She has already found a job in Jianye."
Wang Zibo introduced her.
"Oh."
Chen Hansheng greeted her sullenly. Wang Zibo, who was chatting with Huang Hui, actually left the door open. All the air-conditioning ran into the carriage, and when he woke up, his nose was a little blocked.
He glanced at Shen Youchu again. This little girl wrapped the quilt tightly around her body and read an English book. With her character, if it wasn't too much, she would just silently endure it.
"Do you want to drink hot water? I'll get it for you."
Shen Youchu saw Chen Hansheng wake up and asked in a low voice.
Chen Hansheng didn't say anything and slammed the door shut. Wang Zibo and Huang Hui, who were chatting in the corridor, were startled.
"Xiao Chen, can't you be a little quieter?"
Wang Zibo opened the door again and said unhappily.
Chen Hansheng was furious. "If you want to pick up girls, do it in the corridor. Do you want to open the door and do it live?"
After scolding her, Chen Hansheng took the lighter and went to smoke. He closed the door behind him.
Huang Hui's face was a little ugly. She had already noticed that Shen Youchu was probably a little cold, but it was a little depressing to chat with the door closed, so she didn't say anything.
"Your classmate has a bad temper." Huang Hui said.
Wang Zibo was actually a little flustered, but he still wanted to save face and waved his hand. "Xiao Chen has a bad temper. I'll go and have a look."
"Okay, I feel that you are quite afraid of him. Classmates should get along with each other equally."
Huang Hui suddenly said behind his back.
Wang Zibo paused, turned his head and explained seriously, "We are not ordinary classmates. We have known each other since we were four years old."
"Oh, oh, oh. Then go quickly." Huang Hui smiled kindly.
Wang Zibo came to the smoking area next to the toilet. Chen Hansheng had already smoked half a cigarette.
"Can't you save me some face? Why are you shouting in front of outsiders?"
Wang Zibo snatched the cigarette and said.
"Why, do you like that girl?"
Chen Hansheng handed over the lighter.
"No, I just feel that you don't respect me in front of girls."
Wang Zibo punched Chen Hansheng's shoulder.
"She is just a passerby. She will be fine after getting off the train."
Chen Hansheng pointed at the direction of the carriage. "But Shen Youchu is my heart. You froze her like that, can't I be angry?"
