It has to be said that a good night's sleep depends on a comfortable bed.
Qian Lai was awakened by the loud cries of a baby!
I looked at my watch and it was already 10 p.m.
Before he could even regain his senses, a blinding golden light flashed by, and when he opened his eyes again, he found himself suddenly thrown out of thin air by a spatial force, right outside the door of Hua Rui's private room.
At this moment, Qiao Muting was anxiously holding the sobbing Wenquan and turned to Huarui for help: "Comrade, I'm so sorry. Excuse me... um... do you know where that female comrade I had lunch with is? I've searched the whole train, but I can't find her..."
He then realized that he didn't even know the person's name.
"You mean..." Hua Rui almost let slip, but suddenly remembered Qian Lai's instructions and stopped herself in time. "I don't know either. Is there something you need?"
"The child suddenly started crying very hard. The train attendant and several older women couldn't soothe him. I noticed he really liked that woman and wanted to ask her to try."
"Give me the child."
The two turned around at the sound, but Qiao Muting only glanced at them before turning back as if he had been electrocuted.
Hua Rui stared intently at Qian Lai's chest with a mischievous grin.
Qian Lai looked down and exclaimed, "OMG! The space didn't even give her time to change her clothes. She's still wearing a lace slip dress!"
She quickly clutched her chest, saying, "I'm so sorry, I came so suddenly, I forgot..."
Hua Rui wrapped her shirt around her body, and Qian Lai blushed as she accepted the hot spring.
Fortunately, the young people in the private room were playing cards in the next room, and only Hua Rui and the woman in the middle bunk opposite her were in the private room.
Wenquan was sobbing violently, and Qian Lai gently patted his back to comfort him.
"Baby, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell somewhere?"
The hot spring was still gushing tears, its obsidian-like eyes filled with unspoken words.
"Aww... Baby, don't cry, Auntie will hug you."
As she spoke, she hugged the hot spring and began to lull it to sleep: "Baby, be good, don't cry. It's getting dark, time for bed..."
Qian Lai had never taken care of a child before; she simply rocked the child gently on her own instinct.
I looked up and exclaimed, "Oh my god!" I was startled!
The woman in the middle bunk opposite them had gotten up at some point and was staring at them blankly.
She quickly lowered her head.
That person's eyes were terrifying!
It seems empty, devoid of any content, yet it also resembles a judgment and a questioning.
The baby in her arms, listening to her lullaby, murmured, "Auntie, I dreamt of Mommy at the hot spring."
Wenquan said timidly.
"Mommy..." The child pouted, as if heartbroken once again. He buried his face in her arms, his little hands tightly wrapped around her neck.
Qiao Muting stood outside the private room, and through the crack in the door, he could vaguely see this heartwarming scene.
I never imagined that I would feel jealous of a two-year-old child for the first time in my life.
He wants her, and he can get her by crying and fussing. I'm so envious.
Just now, when I turned around, I saw that the girl was only wearing a few threads. That moment will probably be etched in my mind for the rest of my life.
The off-white halter-neck dress had its neckline positioned just between her soft breasts, revealing her smooth, delicate skin and the gentle rise and fall of her chest.
When her long hair fell down, she lost her innocent and carefree demeanor from the daytime, but gained a charming and alluring beauty.
What was fatally attractive to him was the girl's collarbone, with that little red mole that made her look sexy and mysterious.
She was truly mysterious, repeatedly piquing my curiosity.
It is often said that in a relationship between a man and a woman, once curiosity about the other person is aroused, one will fall deeply in love.
Qiao Muting was lingering there without realizing it.
He strode to the end of the carriage, no longer daring to peek into the rooms or even stand at the door.
Looking out at the pitch-black night, colorful images still kept popping into my mind.
Damn it!
......
Qiao Muting recalled what had happened tonight.
Actually, Onsen is very well-behaved, and this has never happened before.
During dinner, as he kept watching the little boy across the table gulping down his milk, Qiao Muting jokingly called him a little glutton.
He's almost three years old and still craves milk.
It now appears that the child was watching his mother breastfeeding his younger brother.
The child misses his mother!
He didn't understand at all, and felt a little guilty.
Suddenly, a bolt of lightning streaked across the night sky, followed by a deafening rumble of thunder, and a torrential downpour instantly wove a misty fog between heaven and earth.
The vast wilderness outside the carriage, where the distant lights that were just faintly visible a moment ago, is now completely dark.
The train traveling through the dark night was like a dragon trapped between a precipice, lost and confused.
The atmosphere suddenly turned horrified.
"What are you doing?!"
A piercing scream shattered Qiao Muting's reverie.
Suddenly, a figure darted out of the compartment, and in the blink of an eye, she grabbed the child and rushed straight to the last carriage of the train.
Qian Lai and Hua Rui chased after the woman out of the private room, shouting, "They're snatching the child!"
"Put the child down quickly."
Their sleeper car was the last passenger car on the train. Beyond that were the freight cars.
Normally, this freight car is locked.
But unfortunately, 10:30 pm is the time when the duty officers change shifts.
At this time, the two shifts of staff need to work together to organize the existing storage space to make room for the new goods that will arrive at the station in the early morning.
To facilitate entry and exit, the doors are usually not locked.
Ordinary passengers would of course not know this, but unfortunately, that woman was not an ordinary passenger.
The woman ran wildly, carrying her child, like a frightened deer fleeing for its life.
