Ji Wanmei, naturally beautiful and graceful, was the factory director's daughter. At eighteen, she was admitted to the provincial university. With her braids and floral skirt, her waist swaying...
"The book he was reading looked very professional."
“Yes, he’s currently working in that field,” Ji Wanmei replied, her gaze falling on the English book opposite her. “The original English version you’re looking at is also very professional. Most people can’t read the original English version without a certain level of professional English proficiency.”
The other person smiled and adjusted his glasses: "My job does require me to deal with foreign friends frequently, so my English is passable."
Actually, from the moment she boarded the train, Ji Wanmei sized up the passenger and felt that he had the air of a scholar, was very quiet, and had good manners.
Although she paused for a moment when she and Lei Tingjun entered the carriage, and Lei Tingjun gave her a warning look rather impolitely, she only smiled politely and looked away.
Judging from what the other party said, Ji Wanmei guessed that he was very likely a government official in charge of foreign affairs, such as a diplomat or a translator/secretary.
"Judging from your appearance, you're probably not from East China, are you?" Ji Wanmei said.
She spoke fluent, standard Mandarin, and it was impossible to tell where her accent came from.
The other person closed the book, looked up, and said, "Yes, I came from Beijing to Guangzhou to take care of some business."
Ji Wanmei nodded, but before she could say anything, Lei Tingjun walked in through the door.
He washed the insulated box, wiped off the water stains, and put it into Ji Wanmei's luggage bag.
Ji Wanmei stopped the conversation. She knew that Lei Tingjun was a jealous man and didn't like her talking to other men.
Although he never said it outright, whenever Ji Wanmei was at school, if a male student passing by on the playground or in the library glanced at her more than once, his face would darken and his eyes would instantly become sharp.
Not to mention the tense atmosphere that always existed between him and Lu Zhuoxuan whenever they met.
She knew that Lei Tingjun cared about her so much that he often felt insecure.
The passengers she met on the train were just passersby; Ji Wanmei didn't need to make Lei Tingjun uncomfortable over this.
He gives her his wholehearted love, so she must give him 100% security.
She got up, took her toiletries from her bag, and said, "I'm going to the restroom."
It's already around seven or eight o'clock.
After Ji Wanmei returned from the restroom, she prepared to lie down on the upper bunk to rest.
At this moment, the train arrived at another station.
Another passenger, also a male passenger, boarded their four-person sleeper compartment.
Lei Tingjun frowned; he was beginning to regret letting Ji Wanmei buy the sleeper ticket.
The two people opposite him were both men. Lei Tingjun knew how beautiful Ji Wanmei was. Even the most well-mannered person would not be able to resist taking a few more glances at a beauty like Ji Wanmei.
But he couldn't possibly prevent Ji Wanmei from sleeping.
Lei Tingjun frowned and pondered for a moment, then stood up and said to Ji Wanmei, "Wait a while."
Ji Wanmei had no idea what Lei Tingjun was up to.
He found a nylon rope, tied the two ends of the small blanket that Ji Wanmei had brought, stood on the ladder, tied the rope to both ends of the pillar above, and made a curtain for Ji Wanmei by hand.
Then he pulled the small blanket over Ji Wanmei completely, before saying with relief, "Alright, you can rest now."
The two male passengers in the opposite sleeper berth: "..."
