Song Lili couldn't help but mutter to herself, "This ghost won't leave me alone; I never expected to run into it again."
It seems we really are destined to meet again, running into each other on our way home and leaving, even sitting in the same car – what a coincidence!
That's right, the person Song Lili just saw was Luo Juan's husband, Wang Li, and the first person she saw was Luo Juan.
However, it flashed by so quickly that she didn't see it clearly and thought she had misread it.
Now, Wang Li's face was reflected in Song Lili's eyes, and there was no possibility of mistaking him.
That's why her eyes narrowed, and she felt incredibly stifled inside.
She glanced at it again, then ignored it. As long as Luo Juan didn't approach, she would resolutely not take the initiative to meet her.
So she acted as if nothing had happened and slowly returned to her seat.
"I didn't expect the scenery around here to be so nice. I didn't even have time to look at it last time," Lin Xue said with a sigh, glancing at Song Lili sitting next to her.
"It's all white now, how did you come to think the scenery is nice?" Song Lili looked at her amusedly.
"It really is nice. Just imagine, it's all green here, isn't it beautiful?" Lin Xue said, pointing outside with great interest.
Song Lili imagined it for a moment, and it seemed to be true.
"Right? It's pretty good, isn't it?" Lin Xue asked happily, seeing the expression on Song Lili's face.
"Forget it, I can't figure it out. When you have time in the future, just come and see for yourself in the right season," Song Lili said, squinting her eyes.
Traveling is something she really enjoys; if time allowed, she'd love to visit all the picturesque places.
She doesn't love beauty created by humans, but only cherishes the wonders of nature and loves the miracles that happen.
Therefore, she has always dreamed of traveling all over the beautiful landscapes of her motherland and seeing the beauty of nature.
She wanted to visit any beautiful place.
However, the current situation does not allow it.
But she has never given up on this idea and is working hard towards it.
Song Lili's thoughts drifted away, while Lin Xue looked at her in surprise, "Can you do it yourself? Is it really possible?"
Lin Xue had never considered such a possibility before, not even when she left that town.
But now, she has not only left the small town, but also arrived in the capital, a place she never dared to imagine.
So, maybe it's possible? What if?
After all, she was able to open a shop in the capital.
So, who can say for sure what will happen in the future? What if it actually comes true?
This time, it took another two or three days to reach the capital. After getting off the train and breathing in the fresh air outside, I suddenly felt much lighter and more relaxed.
"Let's go home quickly," Zhang Shengtian said impatiently. He felt uncomfortable all over and needed to take a shower.
The others shared the same thought. After spending two or three days in a crowded train carriage with all sorts of smells mixed together, they could all imagine how unpleasant they must smell.
So, I didn't want to waste a single moment getting home.
However, she ran into Luo Juan again, which made Song Lili sigh at what a deep "fate" it was.
"Juanzi, are you on this train too? I don't see you here." Zhang Shengtian said warmly as soon as he saw Luo Juan.
"Uncle Shengtian, you're back too?" Luo Juan seemed surprised as well, staring at Zhang Shengtian with wide eyes.
“Yes, we were worried about Lili’s business being left unattended, so we came back early,” Zhang Shengtian said happily.
Meeting fellow villagers here was a very happy thing for Zhang Shengtian.
So, Luo Juan smiled and invited them, "Lili's hot pot restaurant is right at the entrance of Ducheng University, it's that Chenhui Hot Pot Restaurant. Come visit sometime!"
Zhang Shengtian was unaware of what had happened in the store before, so he happily explained.
Little did they know that this was a disgrace to Luo Juan, a past she didn't want anyone to mention.
So, her face contorted in an instant, and even Wang Li, who was standing next to her, felt a little uncomfortable, his eyes darting away, not daring to look at her.
Finally, Song Lili heard Luo Juan grit her teeth and agree, "Okay, Uncle, I'll come to see you when I have time."
Song Lili chuckled inwardly. Zhang Shengtian had unknowingly stabbed Luo Juan in the back, leaving her unable to express her discomfort.
She could only swallow this bitter pill, so why was she so happy?
"Uncle, I can't talk to you anymore. My home is quite far, and I need to go back quickly, otherwise my family will worry," Luo Juan suddenly said.
She was a little scared, afraid that Zhang Shengtian would say something she couldn't bear, so everyone interrupted her rather rudely.
They didn't care about being polite anymore.
"Oh? Oh, right, let's hurry back. You must be tired after sitting in the car for two or three days. Let's go home quickly."
“We’re going back too. I feel really uncomfortable all over, my back and legs are aching. Let’s chat again when we meet.” Zhang Shengtian said warmly.
"Okay, Uncle, we're leaving now, goodbye." Luo Juan grabbed Wang Li and practically fled.
"Hehe," Song Lili suddenly laughed after Luo Juan and her husband left. Luo Juan must have felt incredibly aggrieved.
"What are you laughing at?" Zhang Shengtian asked, somewhat puzzled.
"It's nothing, I'm home, I'm happy," Song Lili said, squinting her eyes and showing her tiny teeth.
"Go back quickly." Zhang Shengtian didn't say anything more, picked up his luggage, and walked outside.
Lin Xue and Zhang Qingguo seemed to understand, and they smiled, but they held it in and didn't laugh out loud like Song Lili.
These two probably knew that Song Lili and Luo Juan didn't get along; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say they were enemies.
Therefore, seeing Luo Juan's distress, it's understandable why Song Lili suddenly laughed.
Song Lili didn't explain much; she was just happy inside.
The group, consisting of five adults and three children, hurried home; it was already afternoon.
"I'll go to the kitchen and make something to eat. After we eat, everyone can have a good rest," Song Lili said, sounding a little tired.
She felt a bit tired these past few days, and always felt a bit listless and like she hadn't rested enough.
So, I feel a bit weak and listless right now.
"Sister-in-law, let me help you." Lin Xue also seemed to be feeling unwell; her face was pale, and she appeared weak and listless.
"Okay, that'll be faster." Song Lili didn't refuse; all she wanted now was to get a good night's sleep.
Zhang Qinghua also went to help because he saw Song Lili's exhaustion and couldn't bear to see her so tired.
At this moment, his determination to learn to cook became even stronger. If he could learn, he could let Lili rest and he could cook for himself.
