Although she was worried about her uncle being alone in Beili Village, He Yuhan had to leave. She had a lot to pack when she returned to City C, so she really had to go back. She also needed to leave some things for her adoptive parents and second brother.
The next day, when He Yuhan and the others were about to leave, Gao Shuwen knew that He Yuhan was worried, so he said, "Yuhan, don't worry, we'll take care of things here."
Liu Zhongyi also said, "Yes, Yuhan, the house is all set up. The rest are just minor things, so don't worry. In another month, you'll all move in, and we'll be reunited. If you really have any difficulties, there's always Qi Shen and the others."
Gu Qishen and He Zhenhua also told He Yuhan not to worry, as they were there for her.
He Yuhan gave some instructions, left some money and tickets for her uncle, and then left Beili Village with Gu Qishen and the others.
Her family in City C is still waiting for her. He Yuhan also misses her husband and children and wants to return to them immediately.
He Zhenhua and Gu Qishen originally wanted to take He Yuhan to the city to catch the train, but He Yuhan knew they were both very busy and strongly refused. They had no choice but to put He Yuhan on the bus to the city together.
He Yuhan took a bus to the city with her simple luggage and bought a train ticket north. She wasn't going to make things difficult for herself, so she naturally bought a sleeper ticket. There would be space, and since she was alone, she felt more comfortable. She could easily take out what she needed under the cover of her backpack.
When it was time to board, He Yuhan followed the flow of people through the ticket gate and boarded the train. There weren't many people on the train, and even fewer in the sleeper berths. The passengers in the sleeper carriages were noticeably better dressed; those from families with limited means generally wouldn't spend the extra money to buy sleeper tickets.
He Yuhan had just put her luggage down when she heard someone call her from behind, "Yuhan, is that you? Yuhan?"
He Yuhan turned around and saw that it was Zhou Zhengye, whom she hadn't seen for several years.
She asked in surprise, "Brother Zhou, what are you doing here?"
Zhou Zhengye said with surprise, "Is it really you? Yuhan, I didn't expect to see you here."
He Yuhan said, "Yes, what a coincidence. Are you here on a business trip?"
Zhou Zhengye happened to share a cubicle with He Yuhan, which was quite a coincidence. After putting his luggage away, he said, "I was transferred here for work, and I'm going back to Kyoto because of some family matters. What about you?"
He Yuhan was surprised to hear that Zhou Zhengye also worked in H City.
She didn't hide it, because she knew she couldn't hide it anyway, and they would run into each other again eventually, so she said, "Brother Yi is being transferred to Qianyuan County to help with the construction. My older brother and the others are coming too, and the whole family is preparing to move here."
When Zhou Zhengye heard that Han Yixian was also coming to work here, he was overjoyed. Wouldn't that mean he could see Han Yixian and the others more often in the future?
He said happily, "That's wonderful! I work in the city, not far from you, so we can see each other more often. This is such a pleasant surprise."
Zhou Zhengye bought a lower berth ticket, and the two of them sat on the lower berth and chatted about their recent situations.
When Zhou Zhengye heard that He Yuhan had given Mr. Han Yi a son, he felt a mixture of jealousy and envy. Thinking of the dream he often had later, and the scenes in it, he felt a pang of sadness.
Looking at the even more beautiful and charming He Yuhan, Zhou Zhengye was truly excited. He never expected that he would run into the person he had been thinking about so much on his train journey back to Beijing today. Looking at He Yuhan's rosy cheeks and her relaxed and composed expression, he knew that she must be doing very well.
When He Yuhan had her accident in Kyoto, he was heartbroken and filled with regret, and he even had a big argument with Han Yixian. The next time he heard news about He Yuhan was when she married Han Yixian.
He suffered for a long time afterward. He knew how much Han Yixian cherished He Yuhan and that he would definitely treat her well. He also knew that he and He Yuhan had ultimately missed their chance, and he had no more opportunities.
He cherished He Yuhan deep in his heart and married her as arranged by his family. Although he didn't have high expectations for his married life, it unexpectedly made his life even more chaotic.
He only realized how annoying his wife was after he married the woman his family arranged for him; she was narrow-minded, petty, and capricious.
Everyone says that one should marry a virtuous wife, and his family carefully selected a woman for him, which really disappointed him.
He didn't ask his wife to be exceptionally beautiful or understanding; he just hoped she wouldn't hold him back in her interactions with others. However, the woman was incredibly good at hiding her true nature before marriage; everyone thought she was a well-behaved and sensible girl. Unexpectedly, she gradually revealed her true colors after marriage, which even the Zhou family found difficult to accept.
But since he had already married her, he could only try to train her slowly. After more than two years of marriage, Zhou Zhengye realized that his wife was fundamentally unchangeable, and she didn't even try to change him.
He didn't want to face that annoying, speechless woman anymore, so he decided to leave. That's why he chose to come to this remote area, far from Kyoto. Little did he know that such a pleasant surprise awaited him.
Zhou Zhengye was excited and wanted to talk to He Yuhan more, but He Yuhan didn't want to talk to him much. If it weren't for politeness, she wouldn't want to chat with Zhou Zhengye at all. But she couldn't help it; after all, Zhou Zhengye was Han Yixian's good friend, and she couldn't be too cold to him.
After answering some of Zhou Zhengye's questions, He Yuhan declined his offer to switch bunks, citing that she was a little tired, and went to lie down on the upper bunk so she wouldn't have to talk to him anymore.
Zhou Zhengye could also tell that He Yuhan didn't want to talk to him too much, probably to avoid suspicion. After all, they were men and women, and both of them had families, so they naturally had to be careful.
Zhou Zhengye didn't press He Yuhan for more information. They were on a train, surrounded by people, and it wasn't convenient to talk about many things. He knew that Han Yixian and the others were also coming to H City, and that was enough. There would be many opportunities to see each other again in the future.
When He Yuhan had nothing to do, she would stay on the upper bunk, where it was quiet. If she wanted to eat something, she could take it out under the cover of her backpack.
He Yuhan was a little worried about traveling with Zhou Zhengye for several days. She had originally thought she would be free and easy on her own, but unexpectedly, she would run into Zhou Zhengye, making it a rather unpleasant journey. She really hoped to get home soon.
Throughout the journey, Zhou Zhengye took good care of He Yuhan, constantly buying her meals and fetching hot water for her. This made He Yuhan feel quite embarrassed. She ended up sharing her own food with Zhou Zhengye, as she felt awkward eating alone.
Zhou Zhengye was pleasantly surprised to be able to eat He Yuhan's cooking again. He also cherished this opportunity to spend time with He Yuhan and tried his best to maintain a suitable distance so as not to bother her.
He was already incredibly happy that they had been able to accompany him on this journey, and he was very content.
