Chapter 421 Small Body
But I didn't find any opportunity in the next few days.
It was not until two days later that Gu Xizhou suddenly returned home in a hurry.
Su Nanzhi, who was sitting in a rocking chair reading a novel, heard the noise and looked up to see him with a serious face.
"What's wrong?"
Gu Xizhou looked at her, and then seemed to come back to his senses. He said in a hoarse voice: "Grandma Xia is seriously ill. I need to go to Beicheng."
Su Nanzhi was shocked and stood up immediately.
Although Gu Xizhou didn't say much about what happened after his grandparents and mother passed away when he was a child and he went to Taipei.
But even if he didn't say it, Su Nanzhi could think of it.
Compared to the fact that he never talked about other people in the Gu family, Grandma Xia often appeared in Gu Xizhou's conversations with her.
Grandma Xia would cook delicious food for him, make clothes for him, and give him red envelopes during the Chinese New Year.
Compared with other people in the Gu family, Grandma Xia is more like Gu Xizhou's relative.
As she spoke, she turned and walked towards the bedroom.
"Then why are you still standing there like an idiot? Hurry up and pack your things. Have you changed your ticket?"
Gu Xizhou nodded and took out two tickets from his pocket.
Originally, they planned to go to Taipei after Su Nanzhi finished the college entrance examination. One reason was to check out the universities in advance while Gu Xizhou was still on vacation, and the other was to take Su Nanzhi to visit Grandma Xia.
Now it's just a few days earlier.
"What time is the next train ticket?" Su Nanzhi asked while packing her luggage.
Gu Xizhou followed closely behind Su Nanzhi, "Tonight."
When I saw her back packing her luggage, I couldn't help but go up to her and hug her.
"Thank you."
Su Nanzhi felt the man's slightly trembling hands holding her, put down the clothes in her hands, grabbed his hand, and comforted him softly: "Grandma Xia will definitely be fine."
Gu Xizhou nodded, and after a long while, he let go of Su Nanzhi and started packing up.
The two of them had packed most of the luggage they were going to Taipei City for the past few days, and they quickly packed the rest of the luggage.
After handing the key to the Su family's old house to the Xue family, Gu Xizhou and Su Nanzhi headed towards the train station.
Although the tickets they bought were for one o'clock in the evening, there were still many passengers waiting for the train at the train station just like them.
The two arrived at the train station more than an hour and a half early.
Although the train station was crowded, it was open everywhere. In addition, it was late at night, and Su Nanzhi and Gu Xizhou were in a hurry to go out. Because they were in a hurry, they didn't feel anything on the way. Now, sitting in the waiting room for a while to recover, Su Nanzhi realized that she was a little cold. A gust of evening wind blew, and she couldn't help shivering.
Seeing this, Gu Xizhou quickly began to rummage through the luggage.
Su Nanzhi sat on a chair and looked around at the people waiting for the bus.
There are farmers with large and small bags around them, and there are also intellectuals who wear glasses and look very gentle.
Soon Su Nanzhi's eyes fell on one of the men holding a black leather bag.
The cowhide bag in the man's arms looked bulging and seemed to be quite heavy. There was clearly empty space next to the man, but he still chose to hold the cowhide bag. No one knew what was hidden in the bag.
But judging from the vigilant look the man showed from time to time, it seemed that this thing must be very valuable.
Just as Su Nanzhi was lost in thought, a thick green cotton coat was put on her.
"Put it on."
The weather was very cold, but Gu Xizhou was still wearing a single-sided coat and shirt. However, his face was rosy, which formed a sharp contrast with Su Nanzhi, who was wearing heavy clothes and shivering.
Su Nanzhi took off her thin cotton jacket and immediately put on Gu Xizhou's military coat.
Gu Xizhou is tall and the military coat he brought from the army was brought here.
Nowadays, many people are proud to have relatives serving in the military. Even if they are not serving in the military, they would like to have the same clothes and shoes as the soldiers.
So even if you are going on an undercover mission, you won't be suspected if you wear a military coat.
However, thanks to Su Nanzhi, Gu Xizhou's mission was completed earlier than expected.
Now this military coat is cheap for Su Nanzhi.
Seeing Su Nanzhi putting on her military coat, Gu Xizhou picked up the luggage on the ground with one hand, held Su Nanzhi's hand with the other, and walked towards the crowded ticket gate.
Therefore, he did not notice the strange look on the face of the middle-aged man holding black luggage not far away when he saw the military coat.
Nowadays, people have only a few ways to travel. Even if it is not a holiday, many people still take the train.
With the help of Gu Xizhou, Su Nanzhi finally squeezed onto the train.
Beads of sweat broke out on her body.
Because the time for changing the ticket was urgent, Gu Xizhou did not buy a sleeper berth and could only buy a hard seat.
After a brief moment of excitement, the carriage soon returned to calm.
After Su Nanzhi was initially glad that Gu Xizhou had bought a seat, she began to feel some back pain after sitting for more than an hour.
Even sitting was uncomfortable, not to mention the various strange smells in the air. Although Su Nanzhi was a little sleepy, she couldn't fall asleep at all.
"What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Gu Xizhou noticed it and asked softly.
Su Nanzhi shook her head and said, "I'm going to the bathroom."
As she said that, she stood up and walked towards the bathroom.
If she continues to sit like this, her waist will probably break.
Gu Xizhou frowned and stood up right behind her.
"I'll go with you."
Before Su Nanzhi could react, an old lady sitting opposite them couldn't help but make a joke.
"You two just got married, right? Look how intimate you are."
Although the train is much quieter at night than during the day, there are still many inevitable sporadic noises around, as well as the sound of the train passing on the rails, and many passengers cannot fall asleep.
The old lady's words attracted the attention of the people around them. Although no one was very polite and didn't say anything, everyone's eyes fell on the two of them.
Su Nanzhi felt a little uncomfortable being stared at and couldn't help but glare at Gu Xizhou.
Gu Xizhou also added slowly, "I just happened to need to go to the bathroom too."
Su Nanzhi: ...
She turned and walked towards the carriage bathroom.
But she didn't stop when she passed the bathroom.
It is impossible for her to go to the bathroom. She can know the grand scene of the bathroom without going there.
Seeing that Su Nanzhi did not go into the bathroom, Gu Xizhou did not show any curiosity on his face. He just followed her and stopped when he saw her stop.
Su Nanzhi stood in the aisle connecting the carriages and glared at Gu Xizhou with some displeasure.
"Gu Xizhou, I'm not a child anymore. If you follow me, others will laugh at you."
Gu Xizhou looked calm, stretched out his hand and touched Su Nanzhi's waist, while rubbing it, he said: "There are kidnappers on the train, I am worried."
Su Nanzhi was helpless, "I'm not afraid of kidnappers, you know I'm pretty good at fighting."
Gu Xizhou rubbed Su Nanzhi's waist with a little more force and continued, "Yes, everyone knows that Miss Su has caught human traffickers before. It's just that Miss Su was almost caught by human traffickers."
He felt that he had underestimated Su Nanzhi's ability to cause trouble. When he learned from the Zhoushan County Public Security Bureau about the thrilling process of Su Nanzhi bravely fighting against the human traffickers, he was scared to the point of having his back trembled.
Su Nanzhi didn't expect Gu Xizhou to know about this, and a look of embarrassment appeared on her face.
"Last time it was because I was alone. Now you're with me. If I really encounter a kidnapper, I will definitely look for you."
Gu Xizhou didn't buy it, and rubbed Su Nanzhi's waist even harder.
"I'll be following you on the train for the next three days."
Without waiting for Su Nanzhi to refute, he continued, "You, your waist is hurting again, right? I told you not to sit at the table all day and to stand up and take a break from time to time, but you ignored me..."
Seeing that he was about to continue speaking, Su Nanzhi covered his mouth with her hand.
"Captain Gu, why are you becoming more and more long-winded? Even Tang Monk can't compare to you."
Although she complained, her face was full of smiles.
Gu Xizhou was not angry and did not stop his hands, but he thought that it was dawn, so he went to ask the attendant about the sleeper berth.
It will take several days to reach Taipei City. He can handle it, but Su Nanzhi's small body can't.
