Chapter 37 Interesting

The conductor paused, looked at the plainly dressed Zhou Nuan in disbelief, and hesitated for a moment, "Girl, a box of braised pork lunch costs three yuan."

Zhou Nuan smiled lightly, "I know."

"Four boxes cost twelve dollars."

"OK."

Brother Shancheng quietly pulled her and said, "Big sister, don't act on impulse. This is too expensive."

"Brother, I'm not acting on impulse. My family hasn't had dinner yet and is already hungry. Children need meat too. Although my family isn't rich, we never treat ourselves badly when it comes to food."

The conductor asked, "Do you really want four boxes of braised pork?"

Zhou Nuan said calmly, "Take it. We have money."

She originally didn't want to show off her wealth in front of others. Her single eyelids were too arrogant, and she would feel uncomfortable if she didn't make a fool of herself. However, the passengers around her had very little luggage and would probably get off the bus soon, so it didn't matter.

It was not until the conductor took out the twelve yuan that he woke up as if from a dream. The look in his eyes when he looked at Zhou Nuan was different. He handed the lunch box to Zhou Nuan enthusiastically before pushing the cart away.

The aroma of meat immediately overshadowed the aroma of rice. Most people had just finished their meals and did not eat meat often, so all the envious eyes turned to Zhou Nuan.

The girl with single eyelids suddenly felt that the food in her hand was not delicious anymore. She pouted sourly, "Hmph, is it interesting? You are suffering in order to outdo me. The meat may even be left over from the previous day."

Zhou Nuan glanced at her and said, "Luckily the conductor didn't hear you saying this, otherwise she would have slapped you in the face."

The single eyelid choked.

Zhou Nuan ignored her and put a box of food in front of Brother Shancheng. "Brother, eat."

Brother Shancheng was terrified and kept making excuses, "This, this is not possible. How can I eat such an expensive meal? You eat, you eat, you eat."

Zhou Nuan insisted, "Take it. I bought four boxes. They were originally meant for you. We can't eat that much even if you don't want it."

What she said was true. Although the food on the bus was not cheap at that time, the portions were very generous and she probably couldn't finish it.

"Well, then you can save it for when you are hungry..." Brother Shancheng refused to accept.

"It's hot, and it will go bad if you keep it. You can eat it. If you don't, I'll have to throw it away."

Qin Yuezhi followed up with persuasion, "Yes, thank you for your help just now. You helped us put so many things on the shelves. Just take them. You can't return them."

Brother Shancheng had no choice but to take it over with shame.

The man rolled his eyes and said, "The weasel is paying New Year's greetings to the chicken. He has no good intentions."

As soon as these words came out, the elder brother of Shancheng got angry and stood up suddenly, his eyes wide open, "Sister, why are you talking so harshly? I helped you just now, did I do anything for you?! Sister, you have evil intentions, are narrow-minded, and speak harshly. Sooner or later, you will suffer! I warn you not to target the elder sister's family again. They have not offended you. If you do this again, don't blame me for being rude to you!!"

Then he turned his head and looked at the faces around him with different expressions. "And you too, don't think that my sister can afford boxed lunches, so you can't take advantage of her. She bought such an expensive boxed lunch with great pain just to thank me. People fight for a breath of air, Buddhas fight for a stick of incense. I understand what my sister is thinking. If you want to bully her, see if my fist will agree!"

The big man from the mountain city was tall and strong, with fists thicker than those of ordinary people. Everyone shrank their necks and withdrew their thoughts.

Single Eyelid was both shocked and angry. Originally, Brother Shancheng had always been nice to her. She thought it was because she was good-looking, so she had always been complacent about it. She didn't expect that he would suddenly get angry and speak so rudely about her.

She didn't think she had done anything wrong. She just thought it was Zhou Nuan's face that made Brother Shancheng treat her like that. She felt even more disdainful in her heart, but she didn't dare to show it. She just snorted coldly, turned away and stopped talking.

Since she stopped causing trouble, Zhou Nuan naturally wouldn't be so bored to care about her anymore. She just appeased Shancheng's eldest brother and ate the lunch box together without saying anything else.

After a while of relaxation, the car arrived at the station. Just as Zhou Nuan had predicted, all the passengers sitting around her got off the car. Brother Shancheng breathed a sigh of relief, picked up his belongings and stood up.

"Big sister, I'm getting off the bus first. Next time, don't get angry with others. Just save what you need to save."

Zhou Nuan smiled: She was indeed angry about having single eyelids, but she was indeed not short of money.

Naturally, she would not say this, so she avoided the main point and said, "Big brother, thank you for today."

"Thank you. You spent a lot of money. I haven't eaten such delicious meat in a long time." Brother Shancheng said with a nostalgic tone. After that, he glared at her with his single eyelids, "Sister, I warn you not to cause trouble. I have asked the conductor to take care of me. Don't think you can bully me just because I get off the train."

People with single eyelids dare not speak out but be angry.

After giving the warning, he said to Zhou Nuan and the others worriedly, "Sister, I'm getting off the car now. Don't do this again next time. Be careful on your way."

Zhou Nuan smiled and nodded, waving goodbye to him. Brother Shancheng was honest, but it was a pity that he and her destination were not the same, otherwise she would not mind asking him to be a bodyguard to take them to Haicheng.

Just as I was feeling regretful, I suddenly heard a crowd of voices. New passengers got on the bus. Wave after wave of people squeezed into the bus, busy looking for their seats.

There was a lot of noise, Xiaodong and Xiaoxi were making anxious noises, so Zhou Nuan and Qin Yuezhi hurried to comfort them.

Just then, two figures appeared in front of them, and a delicate female voice with a unique Beijing accent sounded in her ears.

"Really? How can I get on the train when it's so packed with people after I bought the ticket?"

"You're the one who's in a hurry to go back. You're lucky to have bought the ticket. Why are you being so picky?" Another young man complained, "I haven't even started complaining yet and you're running after someone after seeing a photo, but you haven't even seen them yet."

Zhou Nuan looked over and saw two young people standing in front of her, a man and a woman. The man was tall, wearing a pair of glasses, and looked gentle. The woman was pretty, with a delicate and innocent look between her eyebrows, and it was obvious that she grew up in pampered conditions.

The two men were dressed extraordinary, different from the ordinary people who were dressed in gray. Combined with what they just said, it seemed that they were rich kids from some family who were in a hurry to leave, so they had to squeeze into the train with them.

The man with single eyelids was sitting there with a bored look on his face, but when he saw the two people's faces, his eyes suddenly lit up.

The woman frowned and looked at the two empty seats next to the single-eyelid man. "Ji Huacheng, how did you book the tickets? Why aren't they by the window?"

The man said angrily, "Ji Huayan, do you think your family owns this train? Sit wherever you want, it's good enough to have a seat."

Zhou Nuan's eyelids twitched, and she looked deeply at the brother and sister in front of her.

Interestingly, the heroine actually let her meet him first.
