Her voice was filled with disbelief and shock, as if she had witnessed an incredible miracle. When Wang Xiaolan heard the other party's cry, she seemed to suddenly remember something. Her eyes lit up and revealed an expression of sudden enlightenment.
Her scream drew the attention of the entire train car towards them, and immediately, discussions erupted around them.
At this time, Wang Xiaolan seemed to remember it and said, "You are the top student in our province, your name is Dai Peipei, right?" There was also a hint of surprise and surprise in her tone, and she seemed to be very pleasantly surprised by this unexpected encounter.
At this moment, Wang Shanhu's gaze fell on Dai Peipei. Her eyes lit up as she recognized her. She said with deep emotion, "It's really you! I was right beside Sister Wang at that time. Alas! Time flies! We've spent several years in Kyoto, but we've never met. I thought our fate had faded away."
"But who could have imagined that we would meet unexpectedly on this train? Isn't this world wonderful? Sometimes it's so big that we feel so far apart, as if we'll never meet; but sometimes it's so surprisingly small that it seems we can always bump into each other in some corner."
Wang Xiaolan said, "Yes! Shanhu, you are right."
Dai Peipei seemed to be still immersed in the past, muttering, "We met when we were looking at the list of winners in the county. I couldn't see my name at the time, and I was so anxious that I burst into tears..."
At this time, Wang Shanhu interrupted and said, "Yes, yes, that's right. I was there too. There were so many people watching... I remember there was a girl next to you who was comforting you. Where is she now?"
Dai Peipei said, "You're talking about Qin Yao. She's in a school in the northwest. She actually did well in the exams, but her parents wanted her to go there because her grandmother lives there, and they wanted her to take care of her."
Wang Shanhu said, "Oh, so that's how it is! That's such a pity."
Dai Peipei said: "After we went to school, we exchanged letters in the first year. It seemed that something happened to her. I wrote to her a few times, but she didn't reply. Then we lost contact."
She felt that the topic was a bit heavy, so she changed the subject and said, "After I went to Kyoto to study, I thought of you when I was alone. I just didn't expect that your school is right next to ours."
Wang Xiaolan said, "We were so close, yet we didn't touch each other. I didn't expect that we would meet on the train for a common goal. It's really fate."
Wang Shanhu said with a big smile, "Wow, I'm so happy! One of you is the provincial number one, and the other is the national number one. That's amazing! I'm so honored to be with you two academic masters!"
After hearing Shanhu's praise, Wang Xiaolan smiled a little embarrassedly, then quickly waved her hand and said, "Hey, Shanhu, please don't say that! I'm not as good as you say! Look, we are in the same school and the same department!"
"You're so outstanding, I can't compare to you! Look at you, you have good grades, you're smart, and you're great at talking. Everyone likes you! And look at me, compared to you, I'm not as popular as you, and people pick on me from time to time. If you and Zhou Bihua hadn't been there to protect me, I don't know what I'd be framed by them for."
Wang Shanhu, upon hearing what Wang Xiaolan said, looked embarrassed and said, "What are you talking about? I was clearly praising you two, why are you praising me now?"
After saying that, she playfully stuck out her tongue and made a face. This adorable gesture made the other two present burst into laughter, and the laughter of the three of them burst out at the same time like fireworks being ignited.
The laughter was as clear and sweet as a silver bell, echoing in the air and gently blowing past everyone's ears, making people feel happy.
At this moment, Liu Xiujuan, who was sitting in a row of seats to Dai Peipei's right, was in a terrible mood. Her ears were filled with the laughter of Wang Xiaolan and the others, which sounded so harsh and irritating to her.
Liu Xiujuan frowned tightly, her heart filled with dissatisfaction and anger. From time to time, she cast her gaze towards Wang Xiaolan, her eyes revealing obvious hostility and disgust. Every time she looked at them, she would unconsciously let out a contemptuous snort, as if expressing her disdain for them.
However, despite her deep reluctance, Liu Xiujuan never had the courage to interrupt their conversation. She just sat there silently, letting her dissatisfaction accumulate and grow stronger.
Liu Xiujuan's appearance can be described as sweet and lovely, but her eyes always reveal a kind of indifference and disdain that makes people difficult to approach. It seems that in her eyes, no one around her is worthy of her attention, and this attitude makes people feel a sense of distance from her.
All of this stemmed from her perception of her father. She firmly believed his position as a high-ranking official in a certain department, a status that had allowed her to dominate the compound from a young age. In that closed environment, her status was unmatched, and her peers kept a respectful distance from her. The moment they saw her, they would quickly hide away, like mice at the sight of a cat.
This unique upbringing made Liu Xiujuan equally arrogant and domineering at school. Her classmates were filled with fear of her and dared not provoke her easily, fearing that offending the daughter of a high-ranking official would bring them unnecessary trouble. This made her even more unscrupulous, allowing her to fully display her domineering personality.
This character of Liu Xiujuan continued to accompany her throughout her childhood, even extending into her university years. She always acted superior, as if the world revolved around her, no matter where she was.
Just when she was extremely uneasy, she heard Wang Xiaolan ask Dai Peipei: "Dai Peipei, what major are you studying? This time..."
Dai Peipei said, "I studied radio communications. I was recruited this time based on my communications expertise. What about you?"
Wang Xiaolan said, "I'm studying medicine."
Dai Peipei said happily, "With you two doctors by my side, I don't have to go to the hospital when I'm sick."
Liu Xiujuan couldn't help herself at this point, so she said sarcastically, "Humph! What's so special about being a top scholar? You country bumpkins are all going to the front lines. When you get there, the bullets won't take a detour just because you're a top scholar!"
Wang Xiaolan and Wang Shanhu looked at each other, then looked at Liu Xiujuan and ignored her.
Wang Xiaolan whispered, "Ignore her."
Wang Shanhu said, "I think she is a psychopath."
