Chapter 287 Unable to Escape
"This plum tastes good."
"Yes, I'll buy more when I come back to Kyoto," Xiao Peichuan said.
"Okay." Little Peach Blossom smiled and then took another bite of plum.
Li Zhen sat in the aisle next to him and snorted.
"Brother Li Zhen, would you like some?"
"No, not interested."
"Oh." Little Peach Blossom withdrew her hand.
Li Zhen glared at her.
Does he mean he can just refuse to give it to me if he says he doesn't want it? Shouldn't I have asked him more questions?
But words spoken cannot be taken back, and Li Zhen felt even more frustrated, then glared at Xiao Peichuan.
Xiao Peichuan, an innocent victim: ...
He coughed once, then turned his gaze to the window.
"You're not feeling well, do you want to take a nap?" Upon hearing Xiao Peichuan cough, Xiao Taohua immediately put down Meizi and asked with concern.
"It's nothing, my throat just felt a little itchy."
"Yes, you must tell me if you feel unwell."
"good."
Little Peach was very satisfied and took out another plum and put it in her mouth.
Wow, my mouth is watering!
Li Zhen casually took one from the peach blossoms, and to his surprise, it tasted really good.
Little Peach Blossom glanced at it but didn't say anything.
Li Zhen snorted again.
"Oh dear, oh dear, make way, make way, this old woman has a lot of things to carry."
In the noisy carriage, an old woman covered in luggage was seen walking and shouting, and everyone made way for her.
Until they reached Xiao Taohua and the others.
"Oh dear, young lady, this upper bunk belongs to an old woman."
Little Peach Blossom's hand, which was eating plums, froze.
Upper bunk?
Aren't the upper bunks Li Zhen and Lin Xiaoguang's?
Li Zhen sat down next to him, while Lin Xiaoguang went to the bathroom.
"Oh dear, this old woman's arms and legs are so weak, young lady, can I switch bunks with you?" The old lady seemed incredibly straightforward, with a bright smile on her face. Usually, a shy young girl would agree in this situation.
But is Little Peach Blossom the kind of shy girl?
Definitely not.
And this wasn't even the old lady's seat: "This seat belongs to my brother. He went to the restroom. Old lady, you've got the wrong seat."
Of course, aside from not letting her sit there, I wouldn't think there was any conspiracy or trickery involved; my first reaction was that she had taken the wrong seat.
The old lady glanced at Little Peach Blossom: "You got the wrong spot? Impossible, this old woman is sure she didn't get the wrong spot. Oh dear, this old woman really can't walk anymore. How about this, I'll switch spots with the person who comes later. You can see for yourself, my old arms and legs are really too weak to keep going."
The old lady's words were somewhat pitiful. As she said before, if it were an ordinary young girl, she might have agreed to change seats, but Little Peach Blossom wouldn't: "Then show me your ticket. If you really can't get there, I'll have Brother Li Zhen deliver it to you."
old lady:……
How did I end up with such an unconventional girl!
"How could we trouble you?" The old lady thought that the Li Zhenge that Xiao Taohua mentioned was Xiao Peichuan, who was standing next to her, since the two of them were together.
"It's no trouble at all. Show me your ticket, and I'll help you find your seat."
The old lady declined, saying, "Really, there's no need to trouble yourself. This old woman can still carry it. How about this, let me rest here for a while, and I'll be fine after a short rest."
"No, this is where we sleep." As a doctor, Xiao Taohua is very particular about hygiene.
"Can't you just make an exception? This old woman really can't walk anymore. Look at her, she's really not young anymore."
"Oh my, is this your boyfriend over there? He's really good-looking. A young lady should show off more in front of her boyfriend."
"This, little girl, look at this..."
"Tickets, everyone, take out your tickets and ID cards!"
"If this old woman is really able to walk, she won't bother you."
Little Peach Blossom firmly replied, "No way!"
"Why are you so stubborn, little girl? How about I put a sheet on your bed for you?"
"no!"
"What's wrong with you, girl? Aren't you afraid your boyfriend will break up with you?"
"Grandma, no means no! Besides, I'm such a good person, my boyfriend would never break up with me. Pei-chuan?"
Xiao Peichuan smiled at her and said, "Yes, we can't break up, and we're going to get married."
“Yes, we are engaged. Don’t say that, it’s a bad omen.” Little Peach Blossom looked at the old lady with some displeasure.
The old lady was also unhappy. She had taken the train so many times, and this was the first time she had encountered someone so disregarding her feelings, showing no shame, embarrassment, nervousness, or remorse.
She glanced at the carriage; their ticket check would be done soon.
"Forget it, this old woman won't trouble you. I'll do it myself. Honestly, these young people nowadays don't know how to respect their elders at all. No family can have a good relationship with their mother-in-law if they marry a woman like this. Young man, you'd better be more discerning if you're going to get married." The old lady said, picking up her luggage to leave. However, before, she didn't want to leave, but now Li Zhen and the others didn't want her to go.
"What are you doing?" The old lady was a little intimidated when she was inexplicably blocked by several young men, but she quickly regained her composure: "Let me tell you, this is a train, and there are police officers on board. There are ticket inspectors over there!"
Li Zhen scoffed, "Whether our Little Peach Blossom is good or not is none of your business. You just keep talking and acting like you're so right!"
Song Yi nodded: "Exactly, and you even cursed our little peach blossom's mother-in-law relationship, who do you think you are!"
"Apologize!" someone shouted angrily from the side.
"We can't let this go without an apology!" someone nodded in agreement.
Then someone looked at Little Peach Blossom with concern: "Little Peach Blossom, don't listen to this old lady's nonsense. If Xiao Peichuan treats you badly, I'll beat him up first!"
Xiao Peichuan quickly replied, "That's impossible. I like Xiao Taohua too much, and my parents like her very much too."
Seeing their behavior, the old lady finally understood that these people were all together.
Oh no, I've stepped on a landmine.
But who knew that so many people would travel together on a train these days, and that they all looked so familiar with each other.
The key point is that everyone was protecting that girl.
The horse stumbled.
The old lady didn't want to say anything more and quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's my fault. I didn't mean to say anything. Young lady, let me apologize to you. How about this, I have some homemade pies here. Would you like to try some? I'm quite good at cooking, to say the least."
"No!" Little Peach Blossom turned her head away.
“Exactly, acting like everyone’s never seen anything good before.” Li Zhen mocked, “Don’t think an apology will end this. The way you’re acting, I think there’s something wrong with you. Flight attendant, there’s someone with a problem here.”
With such a brilliant move, the old lady grabbed her luggage and tried to escape.
But the train is only so big. The front was blocked by Li Zhen and his group, and the back was the ticket inspector. There was no way to escape.
