"Is there anything else?"
"What did I do wrong again?" Cheng Guangxu looked at Zhang Hongmei with a mournful expression and asked pitifully.
Zhang Hongmei was truly defeated. What kind of expression is that?
"What's wrong?"
"I haven't done anything wrong. Why are you so impatient? Why are you trying to kick me out?"
"Cheng Guangxu, can you be normal for once? When did you develop such a fragile heart?"
"I didn't! What does 'fragile heart' mean?"
Zhang Hongmei decided not to stoop to his level; that's just the kind of person he is.
"It's okay, you're not wrong. I just felt like we weren't on the same wavelength when we were chatting. I didn't mean to look down on you."
"Oh, sometimes I don't understand what you're saying either."
Zhang Hongmei: Is it my fault?
"Zhang Hongmei, what's it like in Southeast Asia?"
"I've never been there either, how would I know?" I have to talk to him seriously now, otherwise he'll overthink it. Honestly, I can't even find a good person to chat with when I want to relax.
"Tell me, are we going to take a plane and leave once we get to Southeast Asia? I've never been on a plane before."
Zhang Hongmei finally grasped the key point: this guy was afraid of flying.
"I don't know either, but we all have to believe that we will be able to reach the United States safely and smoothly. Our thoughts are the most important thing; we must think of the best-case scenario."
"is that so?"
"Of course, we all have the best wishes, and they will definitely come true."
"Hehe, I know. I'm just looking forward to our arrival. If we can receive our education quickly, we can come back sooner."
"Yes, that's exactly right. Cheng Guangxu, you can definitely do it."
After finally seeing him off, Zhang Hongmei lay on her back on the bed, recalling her conversation with Cheng Guangxu. She laughed self-deprecatingly, realizing that she herself was just as afraid and worried.
But what's the use? Things still have to go on as they are. Not to mention modern airplanes, even airplanes from later generations aren't entirely without risk.
I remember my grandfather always saying, "If you're destined to die in a well, you'll never die in a river. So it all depends on your fate."
Thinking of this, Zhang Hongmei grinned. Back then, she thought she was an educated person and shouldn't believe in those supernatural forums. She never imagined that one day she would use this to comfort herself.
Suddenly, she thought how wonderful it would be if Zhang Shouyi were by her side. With that thought, she sat up and began to write a letter to Zhang Shouyi.
I wrote down all my conversations with Cheng Guangxu because I wanted to confide in someone, but I couldn't let the other person worry. It was hard to strike the right balance.
She wrote three whole pages, more than she had written in the previous ten days combined. Only after finishing did Zhang Hongmei realize that she could actually write long letters! She was determined to show Zhang Shouyi this time.
I put it in the ring, and I felt much lighter. I'd come to terms with it. Since God had brought me here, and I hadn't done anything heinous or morally reprehensible, He wouldn't let me die so young.
Because of the lack of exercise and spending all day indoors, everyone's appetite has decreased. However, the most popular spicy squid is still devoured, so the kitchen now rarely makes dishes like stewed fish, otherwise it would be a waste.
Tonight's dinner is dumplings, a meal that's rarely served on the ship, mainly because there are too many people and not enough cooks. This time, there are five girls and Wang Xinyi helping out. Everyone knows that Zhang Hongmei is reading, but they can't concentrate on their own reading, so no one bothers her.
Today's dumplings were filled with mackerel, and they tasted pretty good. Later, I found out that Wang Xinyi mixed the filling.
When the ship finally docked, Xiao Wanxiang finally breathed a sigh of relief. Overall, the journey had been smooth sailing, and the little incident seemed insignificant once they landed.
The trip went very smoothly; we didn't even need the medication the leaders had prepared. No one experienced seasickness. With favorable winds and currents, we finally delivered them safely to land, and my mission was accomplished.
We docked in the afternoon, and there were only a few people scattered around the pier; the desolation was an understatement.
Everyone was standing on the deck, and Zhang Hongmei saw longing in their faces.
Yes, we've been adrift at sea for over twenty days, and now that we can finally stand on solid ground, how could we not long for it?
"Everyone is here. First of all, I would like to congratulate you all on your successful arrival in Southeast Asia. We got along very well along the way, and I was able to witness the quality of intellectuals."
"Then my work, Xiao Wanxiang's work, is complete. However, I must remind everyone that we cannot disembark yet. A designated person in charge will arrive shortly; he will be responsible for everything in Southeast Asia. So please be patient and wait a while."
"Hehe, thank you for taking care of us along the way, Captain." Han Guangtai spoke first. After all, he was a working man and was more tactful than these students.
"Yes, we will always remember the captain's care throughout the journey," Kong Yushun said, expressing his gratitude.
Now everyone was talking at once, expressing their gratitude.
"Everyone, please don't be so polite. The fact that we were able to arrive safely is all thanks to everyone's joint efforts. You are our hope. I hope that when you finish your studies and return home, I will escort you all back."
At this moment, someone on the shore called out, and Xiao Wanxiang's smile became even more genuine. Although it couldn't be called a burden, being able to successfully hand over more than ten people from his hands was still very gratifying.
The port is quite large, so passenger ships can dock directly at the pier. Only about two meters of wooden planks are laid out for easy boarding and disembarking.
Wang Xinyi had prepared their luggage before lunch, and it was now at their feet. Cheng Guangxu was carrying the heaviest books, so Zhang Hongmei was quite relaxed.
Suddenly I remembered Zeng Zhongkang. I glanced at him and found that he was still silently bowing his head, just like always.
I hope this guy doesn't cause any trouble. Zhang Hongmei is now hoping to get on the plane right away.
Xiao Wanxiang was the first to walk down, and everyone else lined up behind him, with the girls being the last.
Zhang Hongmei didn't care; it didn't matter if it was earlier or later, and the difference wouldn't be more than ten minutes.
The boys put their luggage on the ground and then came over to help the girls carry their luggage, which was quite nice.
Zeng Zhongkang carried the luggage from Zhang Hongmei and Wang Xinyi without showing any signs of strain.
Once everyone had reached the shore, the two who had been chatting also finished their small talk.
"Let me introduce you. This is Gao Xiangming, the person in charge of our business in Southeast Asia."
"Old Gao, I'm entrusting this to you."
"Okay, when are you heading back?"
