The annoying person is gone, and now only Xu Xinning, Mu Jingheng, and that man who acted so convincingly remain in the carriage.
Xu Xinning put her hands into her bag and took out bed sheets and duvet covers from her storage space. Mu Jingheng quickly helped her tidy up the bed.
The man had been watching the two of them. After they changed, he smiled and said, "You two are really thoughtful. Actually, you should bring these things when you travel. Not to mention this hotel, there are so many people coming and going on this train. Who knows how many people have used this blanket? People with good living habits are fine, but people with bad living habits might not even take off their shoes before getting into bed."
Xu Xinning originally changed the sheets and duvet cover because the mother and daughter had used them, but after hearing what the man said, Xu Xinning felt uncomfortable all over. She really wanted to take out the blankets from her space, but with outsiders around, she couldn't do it in a way that would arouse suspicion.
Mu Jingheng seemed to understand something. He climbed onto the upper bunk, pulled out a quilt and a sheet from his bag (his spatial storage), and tidied the bed neatly.
He definitely had to let Xu Xinning sleep in the middle bunk that night, otherwise he wouldn't feel at ease.
After Mu Jingheng came down, he quietly said to Xu Xinning, "The blanket on top was taken from my space. You can sleep on it tonight."
Xu Xinning nodded and smiled knowingly.
The young people were being very affectionate, which made the men extremely envious.
The man's name was Ding Mao. He wasn't actually that old, only thirty-two. He was a college graduate who was assigned to a match factory right after graduation.
After the turmoil began, several cadres in the factory were demoted, but Ding Mao, with his high emotional intelligence, managed to get a great opportunity.
In fact, Ding Mao fell in love with the factory director's daughter as soon as he arrived at the match factory. At that time, Ding Mao was twenty-two years old and the factory director's daughter was twenty years old. It was love at first sight for the two of them.
Just as the two were about to establish a relationship, the factory manager received news that he was being targeted.
To avoid affecting Ding Mao, the factory manager's daughter decisively broke off her relationship with him.
When the factory director and the others were sent down to the countryside, Ding Mao secretly used his connections, which prevented them from suffering too much.
Because of this, Ding Mao never got married, even though he had long considered the former factory director's daughter as his wife.
In this lifetime, how easy is it to meet a true love? Some people may never find one in their entire lives.
The former factory director's daughter stayed with her parents and never got married.
Ding Mao always dreamed of marrying the girl he loved one day, but he didn't know if he would ever live to see that day.
Seeing Xu Xinning and Mu Jingheng reminded him of the time when he was deeply in love with his beloved girl.
Those were his most precious memories, the best comfort he found in the quiet of the night.
After Xu Xinning and Mu Jingheng finished their work, they sat down. Xu Xinning took out a book to read. She had almost finished her coursework, but she had a lot of things to do next, so she needed to make the most of her time to thoroughly understand the knowledge.
Mu Jingheng took out an apple from his bag (actually, from his spatial storage), and then took out a fruit knife, skillfully peeling the apple.
When everything was finished, I looked up and unintentionally fell into Ding Mao's deep eyes.
At this moment, Ding Mao is reminiscing about his happiness through the two of them.
Mu Jingheng handed an apple to Ding Mao. After all, he had put in a lot of effort in his performance just now, and in a sense, they had fought side by side.
Mu Jingheng quite liked Ding Mao. He was a smooth but not cunning, righteous but not pedantic person, and a rare clear-headed individual.
Such a person is worth befriending.
Mu Jingheng: "Comrade, have an apple."
Ding Mao paused for a moment, then smiled and generously accepted the apple. "This apple is of excellent quality; it's truly a rare find!"
How could the products produced by Space be bad?
Mu Jingheng replied, "It's good. It was sent to us by a friend from the place of origin. Luckily, the weather was cold, so not many were lost on the way, otherwise I would have been heartbroken."
Ding Mao: "I heard that apples from their place of origin are so plentiful that they can be eaten as a meal. It's a pity that it's too far away. I also want to eat such delicious apples as a meal."
After Ding Mao finished speaking, he casually rubbed the apple on his clothes and then took a big bite.
The aroma and juicy sweetness of the apple filled my mouth, seemingly driving away all the fatigue of the past few days.
Ding Mao: "So delicious!"
Mu Jingheng followed Ding Mao's example, rubbed the apple on his body, and took a big bite.
Mu Jingheng: "It's good. Such good apples are rare on the market."
Ding Mao: "Who says otherwise? If the company could give out this during the Chinese New Year, everyone in the factory would be ecstatic."
Mu Jingheng: "Who says otherwise?"
Xu Xinning lowered her head and curled the corners of her mouth. This person is starting to plan his business again. He really doesn't forget to make money no matter where he goes!
However, Mu Jingheng is very energetic, responsible, and has a good plan; he is someone who can accomplish great things.
Ding Mao: "If only these apples could be shipped directly from their place of origin to our Xiangxi region."
Mu Jingheng: "Sure! Why not? Just like our parcels, can't we mail them anywhere in the country?"
Ding Mao shook his head and said, "Then how much will the postage cost? It's not worth it, not worth it!"
Mu Jingheng: "Brother, this is easy. If you trust me, I'll make sure you get it done. There are apples and dates too; they have plenty over there."
Goodness! They've even started calling him "brother".
Ding Mao became really interested and immediately sat up straight, his eyes lighting up: "You're not trying to trick me, are you?"
Mu Jingheng: "Why would I frame you? I just want to do a good deed. My friend has connections, and maybe I can even get an official position."
Ding Mao: "When will we have any news about this?"
Mu Jingheng: "I called him as soon as I got off the bus. As long as you decide on the quantity, I guarantee that the goods will be delivered to your factory in a few days."
Ding Mao exclaimed excitedly, "That's great! Here's what we'll do: I'll go back to the factory and discuss the quantities with the purchasing manager, then I'll let you know. You can't let us down!"
Mu Jingheng waved his hand and said, "I will absolutely not go back on my word. This is a win-win situation for both sides, and I am overjoyed."
Ding Mao nodded, even more approving of Mu Jingheng. The young man was good; quick-witted, virtuous, and a good comrade who served the people.
Ding Mao: "But the price shouldn't be too expensive, right?"
Mu Jingheng: "How much more expensive can it be if it comes directly from the country of origin? It'll just be a matter of adding some shipping costs."
Ding Mao: "That's good, that's good!"
Ding Mao felt a surge of pride at the thought of the New Year's gifts that would make other factories envious.
Their match factory wasn't a key enterprise, and every time he went to a meeting, he was ridiculed by several factory directors who were focused on development. Besides, he was younger than them, so they would always act like they were older and sometimes even deliberately make him pour water and make tea.
