Jiang Yue didn't pay attention to the other person at first. She packed her luggage, sat on the bed and took out the water when she saw a woman walk over, smile slightly at her, and then go up to Yao Hua's upper bunk.
Yao Hua just finished packing her luggage and went to wash her face, so she's not here right now.
The woman had short, ear-length hair and was nearly 1.7 meters tall. She had an upright posture and dressed very neatly and efficiently. Judging from the way she got into bed just now, her movements were very swift, and she clearly knew martial arts.
Jiang Yue returned the smile and looked at the other person carefully for a moment. She felt that the other person was somewhat familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen them before.
The woman sat on Yao Hua's upper bunk, took out a book, flipped through a couple of pages, then looked at Jiang Yue. Seeing that Jiang Yue was taking her medicine, she frowned slightly and asked Jiang Yue softly:
Are you feeling unwell?
After asking her question, she glanced at Jiang Yue's upper bunk. She clearly saw the other woman's blanket move slightly after she finished asking her question.
Jiang Yue was surprised that the other person would speak to her. When she looked up and saw the woman's profile, she suddenly remembered why she felt like she had seen this woman before.
This woman is the same woman who was with Lu Jingnian at the department store yesterday.
What's this woman doing here?
She's here, but where is Lu Jingnian?
Jiang Yue suddenly remembered seeing the person on the upper bunk huddled under the covers earlier, and a guess formed in her mind. Suppressing her excitement, Jiang Yue calmly swallowed her motion sickness pills and explained with a smile, "I took motion sickness pills. I get motion sickness if the car ride is too long."
Jiang Yue was able to remember this woman's profile entirely because of her past professional habits. As a salesperson, you have to rely on connections and be able to recognize people accurately. Over time, Jiang Yue developed this habit of recognizing people.
No matter who she sees, she can recognize them accurately the second time.
The woman nodded upon hearing this and chatted with Jiang Yue with a smile, "It must be very difficult for you to travel so far. Are you going to S City?"
Jiang Yue took off her shoes and sat on the bed, smiling and nodding to the woman, "Yes, I went to S City to find my husband."
Looking for a husband?
The woman in the upper bunk was quite surprised by the answer, but her face showed no sign of it. She asked Jiang Yue curiously, "You're in City A, so how did you get to City S to find your husband? Does he work in City S? Are you living apart?"
Jiang Yue, thinking about her bold guess, smiled shyly at the woman in the upper bunk opposite her and said coyly, "He's a soldier. He was transferred to S City a month ago. I didn't want to go so soon, but he just likes to stick to me. He's like a child when I'm not there and keeps calling to urge me to come over. So I have no choice but to go there every month."
Normally, Jiang Yue would never talk so much, especially about useless nonsense, to strangers unless there was something special going on.
But now, who told her that the stinky man sleeping in the bunk above her has been making her worry for two days straight and hasn't slept a wink?
Jiang Yue just wanted to know what expression the man in the bunk above her would have when he heard these words.
If this woman hadn't been there, she would have already lifted the blanket off the upper bunk.
Duan Suyao was so amused by Jiang Yue's answer that she almost burst out laughing. She secretly pinched her thigh several times before she managed to suppress her laughter.
I never expected that Battalion Commander Lu, who is usually stern and ruthless and is regarded as a living devil, would be so clingy to his wife at home.
I can hardly believe it.
"Your husband is quite special," Duan Suyao commented seriously.
Jiang Yue shook her head, her tone full of disdain, "He's quite special, especially clingy."
Just as Jiang Yue finished speaking, Yao Hua returned happily carrying a bag of oranges.
"Yueyue, when I went to wash my face just now, there was an old lady selling oranges in the carriage. I heard people say that eating oranges makes you feel better when you are carsick, and smelling oranges also makes you feel better."
As she spoke, Yao Hua took out an orange and handed it to Jiang Yue, "Yueyue, why don't you try it and see if it works?"
Jiang Yue took the oranges from Yao Hua, feeling warm and touched. She hugged Yao Hua and said sweetly, "Thank you, Hua Hua. You're so kind. I love you more and more, what should I do?"
Yao Hua laughed and joked with her, "Then you can dump Battalion Commander Lu, and I'll dump Political Commissar Yu, and we'll be together."
Duan Suyao, who was sitting on the upper bunk, almost burst out laughing when she heard this. Taking advantage of the fact that Jiang Yue was not looking at her, she quickly glanced at the man on the opposite bed.
Lu Jingnian was still hiding under the blanket, but the blanket on his body had moved several times.
It's clear that Yao Hua's words were very damaging to him.
However, he couldn't lift the covers and snatch Jiang Yue from Yao Hua's arms. He couldn't let Yao Hua see him. Yao Hua wasn't as quick-witted as Jiang Yue, and she wasn't as emotionally resilient. If she knew some things, things would go wrong.
Yao Hua peeled an orange for Jiang Yue, and instead of throwing away the peel, she placed it on the small table next to Jiang Yue. The smell of the orange peel masked the odor in the carriage, making Jiang Yue more comfortable.
Seeing Jiang Yue and Yao Hua chatting and laughing so freely, Duan Suyao, who was on the upper bunk, felt a pang of envy in her eyes. She smiled and asked Jiang Yue, "Is this your sister?"
Jiang Yue smiled and nodded, "This is my younger sister, Huahua. My name is Jiang Yue." As she spoke, she took two oranges and handed them to the other person, "It's fate that we met. Please have some oranges."
"Thanks."
Duan Suyao didn't stand on ceremony and accepted the oranges. "My name is Duan Suyao, you can just call me Ayao. It's nice to meet you."
Duan Suyao had heard of Jiang Yue's name long ago, when Jiang Zheng told her. She knew that Jiang Yue was Jiang Zheng's sister, and that she was actually closer to Jiang Zheng than to Lu Jingnian.
"Hello, Yao. It's a pleasure to meet you too."
Jiang Yue could sense the goodwill the other party was showing them, and after guessing that she was Lu Jingnian's comrade-in-arms, Jiang Yue's attitude towards her became even better.
Yao Hua trusted Jiang Yue. She knew that anyone Jiang Yue had taken a liking to must be a good person, so she was also very enthusiastic towards Duan Suyao.
Girls' friendships develop so quickly; the three of them soon became close and familiar with each other.
They chatted and laughed until noon. During this time, Jiang Yue seemed to have forgotten that there was someone in the bunk above her, and Duan Suyao seemed to have forgotten as well.
At noon, the three of them ate the lunch that Jiang Yue and Yao Hua had brought: simple shredded pork rolls, which Duan Suyao ate with great relish.
She and Lu Jingnian haven't had a decent meal in the past two days.
After lunch, Duan Suyao seemed to finally remember Lu Jingnian. She suddenly said to Yao Hua, "Hua Hua, I have a stomachache. Can you come with me to the restroom?"
I'm a little scared to go alone.
Yao Hua agreed without hesitation, "Okay, I'll go with you."
After the two women left, Jiang Yue immediately stood up and looked towards her upper bunk.
