Just then, Ah Li reached out and patted Chi Yu Huan on the shoulder. "Hello, may I sit here? Also, could you help me put my suitcase up here?"
Chi Yuhuan thought he had misheard. At first, he was very averse to being patted on the shoulder, but when he tried to dodge, he heard Ah Li's voice.
Ahri bent down slightly and said to Chi Yuhuan, who was still questioning his existence, "Why are you making that face? Don't you like running into me?"
"No, no, I'm just so happy, I don't even know how to express it!"
Chi Yuhuan stood up, put Ali's suitcase on the overhead rack, and placed it with his own luggage.
He even let Ahri sit inside, saying, "The view from the window is nice; you can look at it more."
Ahri, holding her train ticket, said, "I just happened to buy this seat too."
Once Ah Li was seated, Chi Yu Huan felt her heart beating faster and faster. And just like that, this person appeared.
Ali waved to Chi Yuhuan and said, "Come sit over here quickly."
Chi Yuhuan sat down, and Ali took his arm and leaned against him, saying, "I got up a long time ago, I'm very sleepy, let me lean on you for a bit."
"Um."
Chi Yuhuan didn't move, and even tried to relax, hoping to make Ah Li more comfortable.
Before anyone knew it, two men sat down opposite them. They looked at Chi Yuhuan, then at Ali, and then looked away, either reading newspapers or drinking tea.
Chi Yuhuan slowly lowered her eyes and looked at Ah Li. Her eyelashes were very long, as if they could swing on a swing.
And her lips looked glistening with moisture.
The train started moving, making a rumbling sound, along with a clattering sound.
Once inside the tunnel, everything went dark.
Chi Yuhuan felt a warmth on his lips. The person beside him was still holding him, and sighed softly, saying, "I was really afraid you wouldn't get on the train."
Once the train emerged from the tunnel, Chi Yuhuan looked at Ali, who was leaning against his arm with her eyes closed, as if everything that had just happened was his illusion.
Chi Yu Huan moved his arm, and Ah Li opened her eyes, looked at him, and let go of his hand. "You're already tired from leaning on me?"
"no."
Chi Yuhuan raised his arm and hugged Ali, letting her lean against his chest. He said, "This will make you feel more comfortable."
Ahri smiled, a hint of delight in her eyes, and said, "You're starting to take the initiative now, that's great."
In Chi Yuhuan's chest, an emotion called joy was swelling and bursting forth. She liked that he took the initiative and that he could treat her the way she had treated her.
They entered another tunnel, and it got dark again. Chi Yu kissed Ah Li, and a soft moan came from Ah Li's mouth.
This person kissed so deeply.
Once we emerged from the tunnel, everything was bright again.
The two people sitting opposite them exchanged a glance. Had they misheard?
The two people opposite were very serious, not at all like the people who had just made those ambiguous noises.
The train arrived at the station the next day at dawn.
The passengers collected their luggage and began to disembark.
Chi Yuhuan was still holding Ali, whose eyes were fixed on her own luggage and Chi Yuhuan's luggage, lest someone steal them.
Chi Yu laughed and said, "Don't worry, it won't be taken away."
When fewer people arrived, Chi Yuhuan stood up, first taking off her own luggage and hanging it on her body, then taking off Ah Li's luggage, which was very heavy.
Ali also said, "There are my shoes, clothes, cosmetics, and a lot of other things in here. I was exhausted when I brought them all up."
Chi Yuhuan turned around, covered Ah Li's mouth, spat three times, and said, "Don't talk nonsense." He didn't like her saying the word "death."
Ali stuck out her tongue and touched Chi Yuhuan's palm. As Chi Yuhuan withdrew her hand, she said, "Then you'll carry it from now on."
Chi Yuhuan didn't refuse. He carried his own luggage on his back and pulled Ah Li's luggage in his hand, and got off the bus first.
Ahri followed behind him, her hands empty and quite relaxed.
After leaving the train station, Chi Yuhuan took Ali to catch the bus.
They only started letting people buy tickets once the bus was full.
Chi Yuhuan took out two ten-yuan bills and said, "Two people."
Ali sat next to Chi Yuhuan. The ticket seller glanced at Chi Yuhuan and Ali, then tore off two tickets for them.
Ah Li curiously took the ticket and leaned against Chi Yu Huan again.
When we arrived at the small county town, the bus stopped.
Chi Yuhuan then led Ali to take a tricycle to take her home.
Ah Li didn't ask any more questions and just followed behind him.
Chi Yuhuan's home is a two-story mud house.
The first thing Chi Yuhuan did upon returning home was to take a square box out of her backpack.
Ah Li looked away; she knew that it contained her grandmother's ashes.
There was also a black and white photograph, which Chi Yuhuan hung in the center of the lobby, along with several other black and white photographs of other people.
The feeling of being stared at is terrifying.
Chi Yuhuan lit three incense sticks and bowed to the photos and memorial tablets.
Chi Yuhuan also tidied up the room and did a simple cleaning.
Ah Li stood idly to the side. She wanted to help, but Chi Yu Huan pressed her down into a chair.
He was busy running around, even taking the blankets outside to air them out.
They also opened all the doors and windows in the room to let in fresh air.
Someone nearby heard the noise and came over to peek, and then someone shouted "Chi Yuhuan!"
Ah Li couldn't understand their local dialect, but seeing them glancing at Grandma Chi Yuhuan's photo from time to time, and seeing Chi Yuhuan's reddened eyes, she could understand.
Ali thought they were talking about Grandma Chi Yuhuan.
