Chapter 224 Return trip
Han Yi had never seen Li Wenxi like this before. This was the first time he saw her emotions fluctuate so much. It would be great if Xiaoxi could care about him like this one day.
After dinner, when it was time to pay the bill, Han Yi naturally took out his wallet to pay. Li Wenxi hurriedly stopped him: "Han Yi, how can you pay for this meal?" Then he prepared to pay for it himself.
Xia Zhiyuan also hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, Han Yi, you have helped me so much, I will pay for this meal." He also did not let Li Wenxi come.
Seeing that the two were determined, Han Yi smiled and let Xia Zhiyuan pay the money.
After dinner, Xia Zhiyuan said that he would still live in his original place, just in time to handle the cancellation procedures, and then return to his hometown early the next morning.
After Li Wenxi and Xia Zhiyuan said goodbye solemnly, Xia Zhiyuan returned to the dormitory, while Li Wenxi and Han Yi returned to the hotel together.
On the way back to the hotel, the night breeze was slightly cool, and the shadows of the two people were stretched very long under the street lights. Li Wenxi walked beside Han Yi, with a complicated mood, and remained silent.
Suddenly, Li Wenxi stopped and turned to look at Han Yi: "Han Yi, I really don’t know how to thank you. If it weren’t for you, my brother’s matter would not have been solved so smoothly today. And the matter of the machinery factory, I’m so sorry to trouble you."
Han Yi smiled slightly, his tone soft: "If you really want to thank me, you can treat me to two meals in the future. I will go to Tsinghua University to ask you for debts in the future."
Li Wenxi smiled, "It’s my duty to treat you to ten meals."
"Then I have to write it down."
The atmosphere suddenly became much more relaxed. The two continued walking, and now they were near the hotel, and the environment was relatively safe.
Han Yi suddenly asked softly: "Xiaoxi, did you have a hard time in the past?"
Li Wenxi was stunned for a moment, and recalled those years, and a sense of trance surged in her heart. She said softly: "It was very hard. At that time, my biggest wish was to be able to study and get rid of those suffocating environments. But perhaps it was because of those hardships that I became who I am now."
Han Yi was shocked.

Li Wenxi and Han Yi just walked into the hotel lobby, and saw Zheng Shunli, Chen Hongjun, Hao Sanmei and Zhang Shulan sitting around a sofa, discussing something enthusiastically. There were several bottles of drinks on the table, and the atmosphere was relaxed and pleasant.
"You're back, just in time." Chen Hongjun greeted with a smile, "Hao Sanmei made a fortune today and was just about to treat us to a midnight snack. You're the only one missing."
Li Wenxi smiled and asked Hao Sanmei, "How was the translation today? Was it smooth?"
Hao Sanmei nodded happily, "Very smooth. Mr. Wang said that if he goes to Beijing to discuss business with foreigners in the future, he will ask me to be his translator."
"Great." Li Wenxi was sincerely happy for Hao Sanmei.
Chen Hongjun suggested, "Then we can go for a night cruise on the Pearl River after the midnight snack and take this opportunity to relax."
Everyone hit it off and decided to try Guangzhou's special midnight snacks first, and then go for a night cruise on the Pearl River.
Walking out of the hotel, the neon lights on both sides of the street were flashing, and the air was still hot from the day. Several people chatted and laughed all the way and walked into an old Chaoshan beef hotpot restaurant.
This restaurant is hidden deep in the alley, but there is an endless stream of customers at the door. The decoration inside the restaurant is simple, but it exudes a unique atmosphere of fireworks. Several yellowed old photos are hung on the wall, recording the history of this old restaurant. The heat of the hotpot permeates the air, accompanied by the fresh aroma of beef, which makes people hungry.
Several people found a table by the window and sat down, ordered clear soup base and beef balls, beef tendon balls, fat beef and some side dishes. The waiter quickly brought the beef, each slice was as thin as a cicada's wing, with an attractive bright red color. The clear soup pot was bubbling on the table, and there was a plate of fragrant shacha sauce next to it, which was the classic match for Chaoshan beef hotpot.
The beef was lightly dipped in the pot, and the tender meat melted in the mouth. Dipping it in a little shacha sauce made it even more delicious. Everyone ate with relish and chatted more and more.
After eating hotpot, several people decided to take a boat trip on the Pearl River to enjoy the night view of Guangzhou. When boarding the cruise ship, the river breeze blew in the face, bringing the fresh breath of the river water, which made people feel relaxed and happy. Zhang Shulan took out the camera and took pictures of everyone's smiling faces to record this beautiful moment.
The next day, Hao Sanmei continued to translate, while Li Wenxi and others continued to play.
After playing in Guangzhou for a few days, this trip should end. Li Wenxi originally planned to go home, but this trip took seven or eight days longer than the original plan, so Li Wenxi and her friends decided not to go home and went directly back to Beijing.
They still bought soft sleepers on the way back. Maybe they were too tired from the trip, so everyone fell asleep as soon as they got on the train, and slept until they were dark. It's good for young people. They can eat, sleep and play, and they don't think it's hard to take the train. However, Han Yi would come to Li Wenxi and her friends' compartment from time to time to take a look, and then go back to his own compartment to sleep.
On this day, Hao Sanmei woke up.
The train happened to stop at a big station. There were many people selling cooked food on the platform outside the train, and the voices of those selling roast chicken were particularly loud.
Hao Sanmei left the compartment, got off the train, and prepared to buy roast chicken for everyone to eat.
Four dollars for a roast chicken, it's really expensive. But Hao Sanmei bought three without blinking an eye.
Now she has money and knows how to make money, she is no longer the cautious person who buys things in the past.
Hao Simei, who was carrying her luggage and got off the train opposite, saw the girl in a dress bought three roast chickens in one go, and couldn't help swallowing her saliva. This person is really rich, she must be the son of an official. She was really envious of this person's reincarnation, and her eyes unconsciously swept over his face.
