Chapter 358 On the train - The sickly young lady's daily life of eating melons in the courtyard
Cen Xi and Lin Qing squeezed into the train with great difficulty and carefully came to their compartment.
Fearing that Lin Qing was not used to riding a seat, Cen Xi used his connections to buy two sleeper tickets for her.
Lin Qing is good-looking but weak, so the soft sleeper is more suitable for him. The main reason is that soft sleeper tickets are usually only available to leaders or people with connections, and there are flight attendants patrolling outside, so it is safer.
Of course, they were not traveling alone, they were accompanied by someone to protect them.
"Wow~ There are so many people!" Lin Qing exclaimed as soon as he entered the carriage.
"Qingqing, is this your first time riding a train?"
"Yes, it's the first time." Lin Qing nodded, her eyes observing every place in the carriage. In fact, if it hadn't been too crowded just now, she would have wanted to take a good look at the situation in the carriage.
"You'll get used to it after riding it so many times, and maybe you won't want to ride the train anymore."
Lin Qing: “…” It’s really hard to say.
Cen Xi took out a clean sheet from his bag and spread it under their seats. They were both on the same side of the upper and lower bunks.
The soft sleeper compartment is different from the hard sleeper compartment. The soft sleeper compartment only has four seats. They booked the entire compartment, and the other two were their accompanying security guards.
Cen Xi's movements were so neat and efficient that the two accompanying security guards were a little surprised. Although they knew that the couple had a good relationship, Cen Xi always looked serious and solemn in front of them. It was rare to see such a virtuous husband!
Lin Qing didn't feel anything, mainly because she was used to it. When the two of them were at home, Cen Xi was usually not willing to let her do any housework.
"Fortunately you bought a sleeper ticket, and fortunately we just have one carriage, otherwise if someone else came in..." No one knew whether it was a human or a ghost.
They were concerned about this from the beginning, so they simply eliminated it.
"I've thought of that before, but don't worry, except for people with ulterior motives, it's generally difficult to get a sleeper ticket here."
"Oh!" Lin Qing knew that they were able to have this soft sleeper ticket thanks to him.
Although Lin Qing had no idea what Cen Xi was researching, judging from his previous confession, the guards around him knew that the things he was researching were very important, otherwise there wouldn't be a need for so many people to protect them.
"Okay, sit down and have a rest!"
"Okay! Are you tired? Do you want to drink some water?" After Lin Qing sat down, he took out a bottle of water from his bag.
"Okay!" Cen Xi did not reach out to take it, but squatted slightly and motioned Lin Qing to pour the water.
Lin Qing's eyes flickered, and she glanced at the other two people. Her face turned slightly red, and she froze in place.
"It's okay, don't worry about them."
Lin Qing glanced at him coquettishly, but finally approached him with the kettle, poured him some water, and immediately took it back.
The other two guards looked up and down, then turned around and stopped looking.
They suddenly felt a little supported.
"Hmph!" Lin Qing's face turned even redder and she hummed softly.
After Cen Xi showed his affection, he felt very good.
"Comrade Wang, Comrade Li, you guys should hurry up and pack up as well!"
"Okay, okay!" The two grown men didn't have much to prepare for the incident. There was no point in being so particular. They just sat down opposite Cen Xi and Lin Qing.
But after the two of them sat down, one of them was still keeping a vigilant eye on the outside.
Cen Xi's attention was always on Lin Qing. "How is it? Are you a little bored?"
"No." Lin Qing simply waved the comic book in his hand at him.
"Oh, I didn't expect you were already prepared!"
"Hehe! Of course!" Lin Qing showed a proud expression.
The train ride takes two days and two nights, it's such a long time, how could she make it without any preparation?
"Okay, then you continue reading comics?"
"Yeah. You read books too. Didn't you bring some with you?" Lin Qing naturally knew what the man had packed.
"Okay!" Cen Xi did not refuse, and he did bring some books.
The two of them read their books quietly.
Time passed unknowingly and it was already evening. Lin Qing reached out and pinched his neck. He had been lowering his head for too long and his neck felt a little uncomfortable.
Just after pinching twice, two hands came out and pinched her, "How is it? Are you okay?"
Lin Qing's expression relaxed, "It's OK." She thought that Cen Xi had also been reading for the whole afternoon, so her neck should be a little sore, "Do you want me to massage it for you?"
"Okay!" Of course he didn't want to miss such a good opportunity!
In fact, Lin Qing's strength was not that great. To Cen Xi, it was just like tickling him. However, he would not be so stupid as to refuse such a benefit.
He even felt a little happy in his heart, and glanced at Wang and Li sitting opposite him with a very proud expression.
The corners of Wang and Li's mouths twitched slightly. Where did that cold and serious Engineer Cen go?
Just then I heard the flight attendant's voice outside. It turned out that it was dinner time!
"Engineer Cen, what would you and Comrade Lin like to eat in the evening?" Comrade Li asked immediately.
Lin Qing stopped what he was doing and ordered some stir-fried pork with green peppers.
Cen Xi ordered a portion of braised pork.
"Okay!" Comrade Li asked another colleague and then went out to buy food.
Comrade Wang continued to stay in the carriage for protection.
After Lin Qing kneaded it for a while, he felt his hands were a little sore and didn't want to knead it anymore, "Are you okay?"
"What's wrong? Your hands are sore, so let's not do it anymore!" Cen Xi quickly took her hands off and squeezed them for her. "Does it feel uncomfortable?"
"Not bad!" Lin Qing shook his head. It was indeed a bit sour just now, but after being pinched by him for a while, the feeling of stomach acid was less.
Comrade Wang shifted his gaze outside, thinking out of sight, out of mind. As a single man, he couldn't afford to get hurt!
Xiao Li! Why haven't you come back yet? Don't leave me here alone to get hurt!
Neither Cen Xi nor Lin Qing knew what was going on in the mind of the serious-looking person sitting opposite them.
But even if they knew, they would not be able to change the way they interact with each other. At most, they would be more restrained.
Fortunately, Comrade Li came back soon.
Although the meals on the train are a bit expensive, there are still many people who can afford to buy box lunches. He just waited in line for a while before he was able to buy one.
After Lin Qing and Cen Xi finished their meal, they felt like going to the toilet.
"Brother Nan, I need to go to the restroom." Lin Qing whispered in her ear.
Cen Xi nodded. Actually, he felt that way a little bit. They had been in this carriage for a long time and hadn't gone out yet. It was normal for him to want to go to the restroom.
"Comrade Wang, we two want to go to the restroom."
Comrade Wang nodded and said, "Well, I'll go with you, and Xiao Li will stay here."
"Okay!" Cen Xi and Lin Qing both followed the instructions, as long as they were allowed to go to the toilet.
