Chapter 9: Soldiers will never lose a cent of their money (2/2)



"Lihua, what are you doing? Hurry up and go!"

Hearing Mrs. Geng's call, Fan Hua quickened her pace to catch up.

Although China is still practicing a planned economy, the wind of reform has already blown into some places. For example, recently some people were selling homemade things on the platform of the train station, and the higher-ups basically turned a blind eye.

The two bought a few buns from the platform and happily got back on the train.

Before eating, Fan Hua did not forget to take out the things that Zhao Yilu gave her yesterday. She first took some water from the thermos cup to wet a towel and wiped it briefly, and then brushed her teeth with the remaining water.

"Lihua, why are you so particular about cleanliness? You even remember to brush your teeth and wash your face while riding the train."

"Sister Geng, I'm used to this. If I'm not allowed to wash up, I'll feel uncomfortable and won't even enjoy my meals."

"People in the village used to say you were lazy and..."

Mrs. Geng paused, "It wasn't until I got to know you that I realized the rumors weren't true! I've never met anyone who loves cleanliness more than you!"

After hearing this, Fan Hua chuckled twice. Of course it was different now. She was no longer the original Fan Lihua.

The two of them finished all the buns while chatting and laughing. Just as they were burping, a middle-aged lady with good looks and temperament and a sunny and handsome young man sat down in the seats opposite them.

I just heard the man say, "Mom, we've got our seats. If you like the view, sit inside. I'll sit outside! I've already told the flight attendant that they'll let us know if there's a berth available."

Fan Hua's eyes met the two of them and she smiled at them politely. However, she couldn't help but burped as soon as she raised the corners of her mouth. Fan Hua felt the taste of leeks rush out of her mouth instantly. She felt embarrassed and wanted to find a place to hide.

That's fine. The handsome young man, 䀲志, looked at Fan Hua and smiled, "䀲志, there's a piece of leek stuck on your teeth..."

Fan Hua immediately covered her mouth with her hands and secretly swept her teeth with the tip of her tongue. It was simply a large-scale social suicide scene! She really wanted to die on the spot!

The elegant lady at the side glared at her son and said, "How dare you talk to a female magazine like that?"

The man, Xiaozhi, laughed dryly twice and said to Fan Hua a little embarrassedly: "Xiaozhi, I just want to remind you kindly, I don't mean anything else, please don't mind it!"

Fan Hua pursed her lips and smiled, then gritted her teeth and said, "It's okay, thank you for reminding me!"

The woman across from her couldn't help but feel curious about Fan Hua, seeing her lovely appearance. She started chatting with him, smiling. "Girls, where are you going?"

Seeing that the woman had a good temperament and a kind tone, Fan Hua casually replied, "Go to Yangcheng."

The middle-aged woman was pleasantly surprised when she heard this. "Ah, what a coincidence! We are also going to Guangzhou. We can chat along the way!"

Fan Hua smiled friendly and said nothing more. After all, they were strangers, so she was still a little wary and didn't want to talk too much.

Unexpectedly, the man opposite, Xiao Zhi, noticed Fan Hua's vigilance and spoke to her even more enthusiastically than her mother. "Xiao Zhi, we are good people, please trust us! We still have two days to spend together on the train, and we hope to be friends."

Then he continued: "Let me introduce myself first. My name is Zheng Zening. I was just admitted to Yangcheng University this year. This is my mother, Ms. Jiang Wenli, an editor at a newspaper. We came back to Zhengzhou to visit our grandparents. What about you? Your accent doesn't sound like you are from Yangcheng. Is this your first time in Yangcheng?" The man enthusiastically introduced his family situation.

Fan Hua opened her eyes wide instantly and looked at the other person with a fiery gaze, wishing she could stare a hole in the person's body!

This person is actually Zheng Zening!!!
