The railway station is located in the southwest of Linwen County. The entrance is small, like a small door in later generations. The ticket office and waiting hall together are only more than 100 square meters, and it becomes crowded when there are many people.

Cheng Maixiang and Lin Jiayu arrived at the train station early in the morning. After checking their tickets and entering the station, they were lucky to find two empty seats in the waiting room.

Cheng Maixiang couldn't help but sigh as she watched Lin Jiayu take a large cloth bag off his shoulder and place it at their feet.

Really, this time I went to Guangzhou to discuss business, not to escape, so why would I bring so many messy things with me?

But Cheng's mother and sister-in-law were afraid that she would be hungry and thirsty on the road, so they stuffed a lot of food and drinks into her bag. They only stopped when they saw that the backpack was bulging and they could not put any more in.

Lin Jiayu looked around and said to Cheng Maixiang, "You stay here and look after the luggage. I'm going to go buy some things."

After Lin Jiayu left, Cheng Maixiang looked around the waiting room casually. It had a cement floor, narrow windows, and the paint on the wooden chairs had fallen off and was mottled.

The people in the waiting room were just like them, fleeing like refugees, with large and small bags around them. Some were even carrying quilts and pillows and holding washbasins in their hands. At first glance, Cheng Maixiang's luggage seemed very small.

"Miss, is anyone here?" someone next to her asked politely, but her accent sounded strange and her Mandarin was unfamiliar. However, she spoke a short sentence word by word.

Miss? !

In the few months since Cheng Maixiang came into this world, she had mostly been addressed as "Miss" by her classmates. This was the first time someone called her "Miss."

It’s like in her previous life she was used to being called Miss Cheng, and when someone called her Comrade Cheng, she would be shocked inside.

Cheng Maixiang turned around suddenly and saw a young man about twenty-five or twenty-six years old, wearing a black suit and a blue tie, looking at her with a smile.

Seeing the familiar outfit after such a long time, Cheng Maixiang suddenly felt very familiar, as if she had met relatives from home in a foreign country. She smiled and said, "No, just sit down."

"Thank you very much."

The man thanked him, but did not sit down immediately. Instead, he took out a handkerchief from his pocket, wiped the clean chair surface, and then sat down.

Cheng Maixiang's face immediately darkened, and she turned her head away and ignored him.

The man seemed not to notice Cheng Maixiang's change of expression, and took the initiative to say, "Looking at the way the young lady is dressed, she doesn't look like she is from Linwen County. I wonder where the young lady is from?"

In order to go to Guangzhou for negotiations, Cheng Maixiang specially prepared several sets of clothes. Today she wore a slim white shirt with three-quarter sleeves and a blue suspender skirt. Her long hair was draped over her shoulders with only one strand tied up. She looked young and energetic. She was indeed out of place with the people in the waiting room who were dressed in army green and khaki. As soon as she entered the station, many people were secretly peeping at her.

Cheng Maixiang turned around impatiently and saw the man smiling and nodding at her politely. She couldn't help but take a breath.

Forget it. Don't hit someone who smiles at you. Since he is quite polite, I will just swallow my unpleasant words.

"Comrade, you've made a mistake. I was born and raised in Linwen County, but judging by your accent, you don't seem to be from here."

The man's face immediately showed a bit of pride, but he was still smiling. "Yes, I'm not from here, I'm from Hong Kong City. My surname is Qin, Qin Haoran. I wonder if you can tell me my name, Miss?"

Famous name? !

Cheng Maixiang was immediately disgusted by him. This was such a clumsy way of chatting up someone. His level was too low. Was he so arrogant just because he relied on his identity as a Hong Kong resident?

Cheng Maixiang had been to Hong Kong City countless times in her previous life and had long lost interest in it. Besides, at that time, the inland cities of Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen had already been on par with Hong Kong City, and the value of the word "Hong Kong City" had greatly faded.

But that was forty years ago. At that time, Hong Kong was a paradise in the eyes of people in the mainland. I guess this man used this trick many times to hook up with many vain girls.

However, I have seen much more of the world than you have. In my eyes, you are just a complete country bumpkin. You dare to use this trick against me. You are simply overestimating yourself.

"You're welcome. We just met by chance. I don't know when we'll meet again. I won't mention my name. I wish Mr. Qin a safe journey."

Cheng Maixiang suppressed her nausea and said these words in a very lewd way, then turned her head to the side. If she hadn't found the cloth bag on the ground too heavy, she would have picked it up and walked away from him.

Qin Haoran wanted to ask more questions, but suddenly a cold ice cream appeared in front of Cheng Maixiang, and behind the ice cream was Lin Jiayu's doting smile.

Qin Haoran was about to ask more when he suddenly saw an ice cream in front of him. He looked up and saw a tall, handsome man who said to him with a cold face, "Sir, this is your first time in Linwen County, right? I don't have much to offer you. It's hot out, so have an ice cream to cool you down."

Cheng Maixiang also had one in her hand. In fact, it was already autumn now, and even though the heat was strong, it was no longer as hot as midsummer. However, Lin Jiayu saw that Cheng Maixiang seemed to like this icy, sweet and greasy thing very much, so he went out of the station to buy two.

As soon as he entered the station, he found this man harassing his young wife, and he looked unhappy. So he deliberately gave him something that only children and girls like, trying to disgust him.

Cheng Maixiang had already grabbed it and started eating it in big mouthfuls. The ice cream of this era did not have the various additives of later generations. It was very sweet and pure. After eating it, the whole body felt much more soothed by the cool air.

Qin Haoran did not take the ice cream that Lin Jiayu handed over. He didn't even hear what the other party said. He just stood there with his mouth wide open, as if he had met some incredible person.
