Chapter 546 Next Stop (13)
The barrage in the live broadcast room is still the same as before.
No one noticed anything unusual. From their perspective, Qiao Xi lay on the table for less than two minutes and then sat up again.
But the girl looked around and then lowered her head as if thinking about something.
For her weird behavior.
The people in the live broadcast room were also a little curious.
But they didn't care much about it and just thought Qiao Xi was confused.
A few other people went to rest.
It was not until dinner time that they came out to the cafeteria one after another.
When Ye Ran suddenly appeared and saw Qiao Xi still guarding the carriage, he suddenly felt a little sorry and invited the girl to go to the cafeteria for dinner together.
He scratched his head too.
"Why don't you get some sleep tonight? After all, we probably won't be stopping until the early hours of the morning, so it's important to conserve your energy. Chen Kexin and I will be guarding here, and we'll talk to Cheng Xin about getting off the bus."
"Okay, I'll rest."
Qiao Xi nodded and agreed, without rejecting his kindness.
Today's dinner is quite sumptuous, and the dishes are no longer exactly the same.
There are two boxes of braised chicken rice and two boxes of sweet and sour pork ribs rice, which gives you more choices.
Qiao Xi picked the fragrant braised chicken with rice.
The price is about 16 yuan, and it also comes with potatoes, so the portion is very generous. A box full of slightly spicy braised chicken, the rich sauce poured over the rice, accompanied by the light fragrance of the braised potatoes, is very appetizing.
“It looks delicious.”
Chen Kexin, who had picked up the sweet and sour spare ribs, saw Qiao Xi opening her lunch box and came over. She said happily, "If you want to eat spare ribs, tell me. I'll give you some."
"Okay, if you want to eat the braised chicken, take mine. You're welcome."
Two girls are chatting here.
Ye Ran, who also had the braised chicken with rice, looked at the lunch box, sighed, and then opened the chopsticks in the package.
Cheng Xin, who was eating heartily next to him, noticed his expression.
"What's wrong with you? Is your appetite not up to par?"
Before Ye Ran could answer, Chen Kexin half-jokingly said, "Maybe, the rich young master must be tired of eating boxed lunches for a few days in a row. You said going to a restaurant is okay, but eating boxed lunches every meal, oh -"
She didn't know how rich Ye Ran's family was.
Anyway, they were definitely richer than her family. Don't those rich second-generations eat all kinds of delicacies? I guess the boxed lunches that weren't even considered good at these small restaurants probably wouldn't catch the eye of the young master.
Although Ye Ran couldn't taste it.
But having fallen to this point, there must be some disappointment, right?
Ye Ran glanced at her when he heard her teasing words: "Chen Kexin, you're almost there."
The boy picked up the braised chicken and put it into his mouth.
He sighed, as if expressing regret and continuing Chen Kexin's topic.
"Why am I suffering like this? I can smell it but can't taste it. I know it smells good just thinking about it. But when I put it in my mouth, it just has no taste."
It doesn't matter what you eat.
His concept of eating is the same as that of ordinary people. He can't be some immortal god who doesn't even know about these normal meals, right? Then again, people from wealthy families are still human beings. I just don't know why they always have such strange prejudices.
Sometimes the chef in his family is on vacation.
Since his family didn't have time to arrange anything, he would just order takeout and eat a quick meal of hot and sour noodles or something else. He would pay about a dozen yuan and didn't think he was going to die from eating too much.
Now Chen Kexin is being teased like this.
It's inevitable to feel a little unhappy.
In extraordinary situations and extraordinary times, it's good enough to have something to eat. Aren't you asking for trouble by complaining about this and that?
"It's a shame that I can't taste it."
Cheng Xin, who was standing next to him, also sighed after hearing this.
For him, the food here is amazing, with such luxurious fish and meat.
It's free, so he can save a lot of money on food.
When he came out of the village alone.
If he got hungry on the road, he would just buy a small bread roll and eat it, which would be his entire meal. Instant noodles were a luxury for him, and he had been eating a lot since he was a child.
Three loaves of bread a day was really too much for him to bear, but there was nothing he could do, as he didn't have much money.
There are only fifty left to use, and it will take another half month.
Now in the car, eating such a delicious meal, Cheng Xin was almost moved to tears, and the food was so delicious, this trip was really worth it.
Chen Kexin smiled and said nothing more.
She comes from a well-off family, and although her diet is different from what she eats at home, her daily intake of fat may exceed the recommended limit. If she did that at home, she'd definitely get criticized, but now she's happy to eat and chat with everyone.
Plus.
She is not picky about food and thinks it is super delicious!
That's double the joy.
The atmosphere was harmonious as they chatted and laughed. Qiao Xi ate her meal in silence. From time to time, she would hear them bring up the topic of herself, and she would smile and respond.
People from different backgrounds are indeed different.
But the more affluent a person is, the more opportunities they have for education, and naturally, they tend to be more refined. They are more tactful in their dealings with others, and are better at reading their expressions. They communicate in a way that makes others feel most comfortable.
Plus a wealth of knowledge and humor.
It will not make people feel embarrassed, but will make the person you are talking to admire and feel awe from the bottom of their hearts.
This is a mature person who has received higher education and will achieve great things in the future.
The kind that has no substance.
Those who are always complaining about this and that and are arrogant and think they are from a superior family are basically all fake. Even if their parents are rich, they will probably squander it all in the end.
Being gentle, humble and well-mannered is not just something to say.
The pleasant meal time passed.
Qiao Xi also controlled the wheelchair and returned to her room. The electric wheelchair she was sitting in had a speed limit according to the standard production. If she encountered an emergency and needed to escape, she would be able to do so.
The maximum speed of this wheelchair is the running speed of a normal person.
Will inevitably be eliminated.
Human potential is limitless in times of crisis, especially when escaping, when they can fly like an arrow from a bow. In comparison, her slow wheelchair is indeed a bit cumbersome.
It's not surprising that Chen Kexin would have such concerns.
However, Cheng Xin did not refuse and even expressed his willingness.
And it's not generally positive.
I don’t know whether I should say that a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger.
Qiao Xi wasn't feeling sleepy, so she took a shower to freshen herself up. Back in her room, she continued reading an e-book on the phone she'd been given.
The basic functions are all available.
You can also read e-books, but you can only read classics or literary works by world-famous celebrities.
Cheng Xin, who was outside, was being pulled by Ye Ran and Chen Kexin to cram.
It was an important rule that had been mentioned many times, and Cheng Xin had memorized it, but he looked silly, with an honest and loyal face, and just kept nodding his head.
I don’t know if he took it seriously.
Chen Kexin just felt tired.
Ye Ran sighed several times and rubbed his temples with a headache.
As if remembering something.
Chen Kexin turned her head to look at the other side, and still looked a little embarrassed as the big boy scratched his head and smiled.
"By the way, Cheng Xin, do you have any illness? We all have some problems here."
"No, I'm healthy and in great shape."
Cheng Xin was a little confused when asked this, and he pulled up his sleeves, revealing the strong and smooth arm muscles under his coat.
"this……"
Chen Kexin was stunned.
She really looked healthy. Why would such a healthy person come here? She was suddenly confused and felt a little depressed.
Cheng Xin didn't care that much.
He was only concerned with recommending and sharing the specialties he brought.
Some of them were things Chen Kexin had never seen or known before. They looked a bit strange in appearance, but they were surprisingly delicious.
Several people chatted until the evening.
It was almost ten o'clock, and Cheng Xin went to bed and rested well under the persuasion of the other two people.
On the train.
The flashing indicator light was getting closer and closer to the third stop.
After taking a bath and finishing her reading, Qiao Xi went to sleep for a while. However, this time she did not dream.
There was no feeling of being touched by anyone.
Spend this time peacefully.
It was five in the evening, and the train car was dark and silent. The blinking light slowly turned red, stopping at the third stop. Chen Kexin had already fallen asleep from exhaustion, sprawled on the train seat.
Ye Ran sat silently on the other side playing with his phone.
Wait until you notice the train slowly stops.
He looked up from the darkness and saw the indicator light on. Then he turned off the screen of his mobile phone, stood up, and walked towards the rest area.
Prepare to wake up Qiao Xi and Cheng Xin.
At the same time, a familiar voice announcement sounded.
“Ding Dong——”
"The train is about to arrive at the third station. Passengers heading to the third station please prepare. Get off the train from the right door in order. Please pay attention to the gap between the train and the platform when getting off the train."
Ye Ran just woke up Cheng Xin who was sleeping soundly.
I was about to knock on the door and call Qiao Xi, but before I went over, I saw the girl's door open by itself.
I was caught off guard and face to face with a girl in a wheelchair.
Qiao Xi was slightly startled, then she smiled with her eyes curved, and nodded slightly to greet him politely.
The girl's relaxed eyebrows and eyes are picturesque, elegant and refined, like a spring in early spring. It seems clear, beautiful and non-aggressive, but it is cold when it is actually touched.
Always maintain a proper communication distance.
There is no overstepping of authority.
Ye Ran also nodded slightly to indicate that it was time to leave. Qiao Xi passed by him. The elegant fragrance like orchid also passed through his breath. Ye Ran touched his nose.
He looked a little strange.
He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he always felt that Qiao Xi was not easy to approach. Although he looked gentle, polite and easy to talk to, he always kept a certain distance from everyone.
Not overly intimate.
It's not like Chen Kexin, who will open up and get familiar with others after staying for a while.
Qiao Xi didn't.
She seemed too quiet and didn't seem to like getting involved in other things. At least until now, Ye Ran had seen Chen Kexin break down and complain more than once, but he had never seen Qiao Xi say anything.
That girl.
I always listen quietly to their complaints.
Cheng Xin was carrying a travel bag and yawning.
When he walked out, he saw Qiao Xi already waiting for him by the open car door. He immediately became energetic and smiled shyly at Qiao Xi with some embarrassment.
"Sorry, I'm a little slow."
"Don't worry about it, it's just a small matter." The girl also smiled and waved her hand.
"Your wheelchair is a bit inconvenient. Let me move it for you." Cheng Xin saw the gap between the train and the ground, and decisively bent down to pick up Qiao Xi's wheelchair.
Seeing this, Ye Ran next to him twitched his eyelids.
"It's so heavy, take it easy, I'll help—"
Before Ye Ran could finish his words, he saw Cheng Xin effortlessly pick up the wheelchair and Qiao Xi, and jumped out of the car with brisk steps.
Cheng Xin didn't forget to reply: "It's nothing, it's much lighter than the cow in our village!"
“…”
Ye Ran was speechless for a moment.
Chen Kexin, who had woken up long ago after hearing the announcement, looked over, yawned, and added, "Look at what I'm saying. With your physique, teaming up with Qiao Xi will only leave them in the cold."
"I find you're quite talkative."
Ye Ran glanced back at her, and Chen Kexin shrugged indifferently: "A lot of people say that. After all, not everyone likes to hear the truth."
"It's not entirely because of this. There's something wrong with the way you express yourself."
Ye Ran left this sentence and went back to the rest area, not bothering to pay attention to her.
He can also take a joke.
Usually those brothers drive dirty cars, or say something even more extreme. He is too lazy to care about the temper of a little girl like Chen Kexin.
Most people are quite humble.
Otherwise, with the daily sarcasm between him and his brothers, if he said something harsh and the little girl started crying, it would be difficult to smooth things over.
So what else can I do? Just give in.
You don't have to get along with a young lady who has a little girl's temper.
Chen Kexin didn't care. She stood up, patted the wrinkles on her skirt, looked at the closed car door, and stretched.
Cheer up again.
She went to sit at the table, opened a package of chicken wings to eat, and opened a bottle of juice.
She would still stay in the carriage to see how Qiao Xi and the others were doing.
Cheng Xin got out of the car carrying the wheelchair.
Qiao Xi, sitting in the wheelchair, looked a little nervous, her hands clinging tightly to the wheelchair. Her face was slightly pale, and her beautiful eyes were filled with anxiety, as if she was worried about falling.
However.
The thick-skinned Cheng Xin didn't notice her reaction and didn't even plan to put her down.
Cheng Xin got off the train and looked around.
"Huh? Why are we in a hospital? What's so good about traveling in a place like this?"
The boy's voice sounded a little depressed.
The train disappeared without a trace and they were in the hospital.
Behind him was the closed hospital gate, the dusty security booth empty. Only sharp glass remained of the shattered window, sticking out bare.
In front of you.
It was a dilapidated hospital that looked abandoned, with broken doors and windows. The few intact windows were covered in cracks, and the broken doors looked like they couldn't be closed, with scratch marks on them.
"Put me down first."
Seeing Cheng Xin striding in, Qiao Xi could only remind him.
Unexpectedly, Cheng Xin heard it and looked at her with some confusion.
"Are you sure? There are stairs ahead, and you're taking too long to get up there. It took me only a few moments to talk to you, and you've already made it up. Here, like this."
While saying this.
He actually walked up the few steps leading to the hospital with ease, went straight to the lobby, and then put Qiao Xi down.
Qiao Xi also discovered it.
This guy can be quite stubborn sometimes.
Cheng Xin, however, didn't take it seriously, looking around like a curious baby. His whole body showed the expression of a new arrival in the city, and he couldn't help but exclaim in amazement at seeing such a hospital for the first time.
"It turns out that the medical records in hospitals in big cities are all thrown on the ground!"
Qiao Xi: “…”
