"This game called Landlord is quite fun~" The two warriors smacked their lips, even feeling a little unsatisfied.
Moreover, my sister-in-law was very approachable and didn't put on airs. She also told them some interesting things.
It was not until the late night that Li Xin ended the card game with a yawn. If they were not sleepy, they could even play until dawn!
She slept for a whole day during the day, and the two soldiers hardly had any rest and were always on duty. Even when the crew came to the carriage to deliver food, they had to check it. Even the food was only given to Li Xin after checking.
However, because of the novelty of the game, they haven't felt that sleepy yet.
"We can continue playing if we are fine. You should go and have a rest now. It's late at night and the passengers in other carriages have already gone to bed. Nothing will happen." Li Xin felt sorry for them for not resting and advised them.
However, the two soldiers were very responsible and insisted on taking turns, always keeping one person awake to avoid any accidents.
…
Li Xin fell asleep again, and when he woke up, he felt that the temperature on the train seemed to be getting colder, obviously they had entered the northern territory.
She opened the luggage she brought with her and took out thick clothes to put on. She even took out her cotton jacket and would wear it later when it got colder.
The two soldiers also put on thick clothes. Knowing that they were not far from the capital, they became more vigilant.
"Eat some cakes to fill your stomach. These are made by your Captain He. You can't taste them normally." Li Xin took the cakes that He Beichen brought for her and shared them with the two soldiers. She also ate one herself.
Because they played cards yesterday, the two soldiers knew that Li Xin was easy to get along with. After getting to know him, they did not refuse and took it after thanking him.
After getting the cake, both of them were a little excited. This was indeed a cake that they could not eat under normal circumstances. After returning from the capital, many things that happened along the way would become their capital for showing off among their comrades.
Time passed quickly on the train, and by evening the train had arrived in the capital.
The temperature was much warmer than during the Chinese New Year. Li Xin only wore a sweater inside and a thick cotton jacket outside, so he didn't feel very cold.
Compared to when I came here during the Chinese New Year, I can move around a lot more flexibly and I don't have to cover myself up so tightly.
However, He Beichen still filled one of the hot water bottles he had prepared and let her hold it in her arms.
"Xinxin, here!" As soon as she walked out of the train station, she heard someone calling her.
Following the voice, Li Xin saw Li Jiuyuan waving at her. This time she was not wrapped tightly, so she could be recognized at a glance.
Upon learning that she was coming, the base specially sent a car to pick her up. Two soldiers accompanied her to the car and did not go to the base.
They originally planned to wait for Li Xin to go back together, but her time of coming was irregular and the base was a secret place, so it was not suitable for her to follow her in and stay there for so many days, so they decided to go back first.
"Thank you for your hard work. Be careful on the road!" Li Jiuyuan said quickly when he saw them about to leave.
Although it was just a mission, Li Jiuyuan was still grateful to the two of them for escorting Li Xin all the way here.
"Take these with you and eat them on the road."
Li Xin took out some snacks and fruits from his backpack and handed them to the two soldiers.
The two soldiers felt quite embarrassed. Li Xin had given them plenty of food along the way, played with them, and even gave them the deck of cards.
After saying goodbye to the two soldiers, Li Xin followed Li Jiuyuan into the car. Li Xin was very happy to see Li Jiuyuan after two months.
"Xinxin, have you eaten yet?" When she arrived at the dormitory, Su Miao was already waiting for her.
As soon as he saw her, Su Miao immediately gave her a big hug.
"Not yet. I'll call He Beichen first so he won't wait anxiously." Li Xin hugged Su Miao back, his eyes already looking at the phone at home.
Su Miao let her go. Li Xin was already here, and they would have plenty of time to spend together later, so there was no need to rush.
He Beichen was at home, calculating the time. He thought Li Xin should be here soon, so he had been waiting by the phone since he finished his meal.
He Beichen picked up the phone the moment it rang.
Hearing the voice coming from the phone, Li Xin couldn't help but be stunned. He didn't expect him to answer so quickly.
"Beichen, I've already arrived at the base and met my parents. You don't have to worry too much." Li Xin heard He Beichen calling her and immediately said, "Are you okay at home?"
"Well, everything is fine. With Sanmao here, the house is... quite noisy." He Beichen said, and even glanced at Sanmao who was leaning over to listen to what Li Xin said.
When he was waiting for the call just now, Sanmao was afraid that he would be bored, so she played music in his ear. It was really too noisy!
Li Xin laughed as he listened, feeling that keeping Sanmao at home was the right decision.
"Did you just arrive? Are you used to the weather in the capital? Have you eaten?" He Beichen asked again in a series of questions.
"It's not as cold as last time I came here. It's still quite warm inside the house." Li Xin responded one by one. "I'll go eat after I finish talking to you on the phone."
"Okay, then go eat first, and we'll play tomorrow. You should spend more time with your parents tonight."
Although He Beichen was reluctant to leave Li Xin, he also felt sorry for her because she had been sitting in the car for such a long time and hadn't even had a meal.
Li Xin agreed and spoke to him for a few more words before hanging up the phone.
"There's no food at home. Why don't you let Sanmao out?" Su Miao suggested as she watched her hang up the phone.
After not seeing each other for so long, she missed the cute little Sanmao quite a bit.
"He Beichen was home alone, and I was afraid he would be lonely, so I left Sanmao at home to keep him company."
"I see..."
"It's okay, just ask your dad to go to the cafeteria and bring back some food." Although Su Miao was a little disappointed that he couldn't see Sanmao, he felt that there was nothing wrong with this arrangement.
After all, his son-in-law is training hard in the army, so letting Sanmao stay at home and cook for him can make him feel a lot more relaxed.
After saying that, he immediately drove Li Jiuyuan out and asked him to pack his lunch.
"Mr. Ma knew you were coming, so he wanted to invite you to dinner tonight. But I was worried that you would be tired from the journey, so he said we should go tomorrow." Seeing Li Jiuyuan go out, Su Miao pulled her and said.
"Okay." Li Xin felt that Mr. Ma was quite polite, but since he had already said it, he had no intention of refusing.
Not long after, Li Jiuyuan came back with some packed food. He was afraid that Li Xin wouldn't have enough to eat, so he brought back enough for two people.
"The weather is cold now and you are not feeling well. I have prepared a hot water bottle for you tonight. You can put it on your feet to keep warm." Su Miao showed her the newly bought hot water bottle. He bought it specially after knowing that she was coming over.
She still remembers how Li Xin was afraid of the cold when he came over last time.
