The two were chatting happily, and time flew by. Before long, it was noon, and the train had already left Shanghai, heading towards the unknown city of Guangzhou.
Seeing that Song Ziqing had made a new friend and completely forgotten about him, Lin Chengyu was indignant and quickly reminded him, "Ziqing, aren't you hungry? Should we go find something to eat?!"
"Let's make do with the steamed buns I prepared this morning. Go to the water room and get two kettles of water, then we can just scald the buns and eat them."
Song Ziqing didn't want to go to a restaurant to eat right now. They had eaten breakfast early and a lot, so they weren't hungry and planned to have something simple to eat.
The steamed buns were vegetable buns that she and Lin Chengyu made together this morning. They made about ten of them, but they couldn't finish them all in one meal, so she packed them up to take with her. Now she can eat them.
"Okay, I'll go get the hot water right away."
Lin Chengyu nodded in agreement after hearing Song Ziqing's words. After all, it wasn't cold yet, and the train was heading south, so the temperature was rising. If they didn't eat the steamed buns, they might go bad by evening.
The two of them only prepared steamed buns and biscuits; they didn't prepare any other food.
Of course, Song Ziqing had no shortage of food; there was plenty of cooked food in her ring space. However, she dared not reveal it in front of Lin Chengyu.
After Lin Chengyu brought back the hot water, he quickly put the buns on the hot water to scald them for a while. Once the buns were warm, he invited Song Ziqing to eat them.
Song Ziqing took a steamed bun and handed it to Yu Tingting, saying, "Tingting, try the vegetable steamed buns I made this morning. They should taste pretty good too."
Yu Tingting hesitated for a moment, but readily accepted the steamed buns. She quickly found a lunchbox in her bag, which contained pan-fried buns that looked incredibly fragrant. She handed two to Song Ziqing and said, "Sister Ziqing, you and your fiancé should also try the pan-fried buns my aunt made. They taste especially good."
Song Ziqing didn't stand on ceremony and happily accepted the pan-fried buns, saying with a smile, "Great! We should definitely try them. Shanghai's pan-fried buns are quite famous."
When her mother was at home, she would occasionally make pan-fried buns for her. The outer skin was crispy and the filling was delicious. Eating the pan-fried buns in her hand, she thought of her parents again.
Both her original mother and her own mother knew how to make pan-fried buns, so she was very familiar with this breakfast. After taking a bite, she felt that the taste was like her mother's, and her mood instantly dropped.
However, she couldn't show it, since the person had kindly given her food, and she didn't want to give them a bad look. After eating a few bites, she returned to Lin Chengyu's bedside and handed him another pan-fried bun.
She sat down next to him, and with a bite of steamed bun and a bite of bread, she finished her lunch with boiled water.
After lunch, she climbed onto the middle bunk and found that Lin Chengyu had already changed the sheets on it with her own. She lay down on it and soon pretended to fall asleep.
At this moment, neither Yu Tingting nor Lin Chengyu realized that she was not asleep at all, but lying in bed thinking about how she should visit her parents. She had a feeling that the original owner's parents were her biological parents.
This feeling came from her soul, and it was incredibly accurate. In her past life, when she was traveling around the world, she used this feeling to avoid many dangers.
Lost in thought, Song Ziqing drifted off to sleep. When she woke up again, two hours later, Lin Chengyu was standing by the table. Seeing that she was awake, he quickly asked, "Ziqing, you're awake? Don't fall asleep again! If you stay awake any longer, I'm worried you won't be able to sleep tonight."
Lin Chengyu has all his wealth on him, unlike Song Ziqing who is carefree and can't fall asleep completely. If he encounters a thief, he will really have to become Song Ziqing's gigolo.
He didn't intend to threaten Song Ziqing into giving him the ring's space. After all, such a treasure was bound to recognize its owner, and those who weren't from the Song family might not even be able to gain its approval.
"What time is it?" Song Ziqing was still groggy and dizzy. He had slept for too long, and he was even more exhausted.
"It's 3:30 in the afternoon, Ziqing. Let's go to the restaurant on the train for dinner tonight. I think it's more comfortable to have rice at least once a day."
Lin Chengyu genuinely felt that steamed buns weren't filling enough, and he was already feeling a bit hungry.
Song Ziqing had also come to her senses by this time. Looking at his somewhat aggrieved little expression, she inexplicably understood his little thoughts.
"Are you hungry? It's so early, the restaurant probably doesn't have anything to eat. Why don't you look in my bag? I remember I put a packet of Ding Sheng Gao (a type of rice cake) in there. Take it out and have some to tide you over."
She bought this Dingsheng cake from various pastry shops in Shanghai a couple of days ago. She bought quite a lot and put it in her ring space so that she could have some ready to eat when she got hungry.
Lin Chengyu guessed that she must have bought the pastries beforehand and taken them out in the morning. He was initially puzzled, after all, he had spent several hours in the kitchen yesterday and knew exactly what was in there.
Therefore, he cannot allow Song Ziqing to live with other people in the future; her life is full of loopholes!
However, he still didn't stand on ceremony with Song Ziqing. He found her backpack, took out Shen Dacheng's unique packaging, opened the paper package, and discovered that it contained not only Dingsheng cake, but also his favorite Tiaotou cake, as well as some individually wrapped mooncakes.
Seeing the mooncakes reminded him that the Mid-Autumn Festival was just two days away!
During the Mid-Autumn Festival of 1962, two Shanghainese were sent to the countryside as educated youth!
They only have each other!
Looking at the mooncakes, Lin Chengyu felt that he and Song Ziqing had become closer.
On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the train arrived at Guangzhou Station.
At this moment, Song Ziqing and Lin Chengyu had already taken their luggage into their hands, while Yu Tingting followed Song Ziqing, repeatedly inviting the two of them to visit her home.
"Sister Ziqing, today is the Mid-Autumn Festival. It's rare for you two to come to Guangzhou, so you must come to my home with me. If it weren't for the two of you yesterday, I might have been drugged by the kidnappers! The train is so chaotic. Luckily, I met the two of you this time."
Yu Tingting almost got drugged by the kidnapper just because she was only going to the toilet. It was only because Song Ziqing thought she had been alone for too long that she took Lin Chengyu to the toilet to find her and discovered her condition, and rescued her.
