Chapter 139 Home



In the Imperial Capital Railway Station.

Ren Yan was waiting in line for ticket inspection with a simple backpack on her back.

Next to him was Wang Shanhai, who came to receive the trophy.

Originally, Wang Shanhai planned to ask an assistant to come and get it, but when he heard that Ren Yan was preparing to return home, he came over in person.

In his words, as Wang Bo's father, he had the honor to come and see Teacher Ren off.

When Ren Yan heard what the other party said, he rolled his eyes.

It's not like I won't be coming back, I'm just going home for a while to visit, so there's no point in sending me off.

However, Wang Shanhai didn't care at all. He insisted on dragging Ren Yan out for a meal.

After they finished lunch, Wang Shanhai sent Ren Yan directly to the train station.

"No, Mr. Ren, I'm just wondering, wouldn't it be better if you just let me drive you back?"

"Your home is in Zhang City, not far from the imperial capital, just a few hours' drive."

Looking at the long ticket checking queue, Wang Shanhai frowned impatiently.

"If you had told me a few hours earlier, I might have asked you to take me back." Ren Yan pouted: "But now I've already bought the ticket, don't you think it's a bit late?"

"How much can a ticket cost? Besides, can't you just return the ticket?" Wang Shanhai asked puzzledly.

He couldn't understand why Ren Yan never played by the rules.

But why are you so stubborn about such trivial matters?

"No matter how much or how little, it's still money. There's no need to waste it." Ren Yan replied: "And the most important thing is, it's troublesome."

"To get a refund, I have to go get the ticket and queue up at the window to process it. By the time I get a refund, I've already boarded the train."

At this point, Ren Yan paused:

"Besides, when traveling, what matters is not the destination, but the scenery along the way."

"Tsk, I've gone back and forth on the way home at least a dozen times, and you're still thinking about the scenery. Only you have the leisure time to think about it. Look at the people around you, all of them are looking down at their mobile phones, thinking about getting home quickly." Wang Shanhai nodded his chin and glanced at the people around him.

"After all, everyone is different." Ren Yan shrugged indifferently.

"Otherwise, you are a freak. You can always do things that others can't do." Wang Shanhai echoed, and then patted Ren Yan:

"Okay, Lao Ren, it's your turn, go check your tickets."

"Next time you come to the capital, just call me and I'll send a car to pick you up."

"Okay, I'll trouble you then."

Ren Yan nodded, checked her ticket and passed the security check.

Wang Shanhai waved behind him, turned around and left the train station.

Looking at the ID card in his hand, Ren Yan felt a little melancholy for a moment.

Although I am going home now, that so-called "home"...

To be honest, Ren Yan is a little unfamiliar.

Although there are bits and pieces of memories of oneself in "home" in the memory, it is ultimately just the memory of the original owner.

I still lack a sense of reality and it is difficult for me to truly empathize with others.

This is also the fundamental reason why Ren Yan rejected Wang Shanhai.

He wanted to experience those memories in person by taking the train, the most common way of long-distance travel.

And at this time, Ren Yan inevitably thought of his original parents.

In her previous life, although Ren Yan's family was not wealthy, they were harmonious.

Ren Yan had a pretty happy childhood.

However, due to a traffic accident, Ren Yan became an "older" orphan at the age of eighteen.

From then on, I became alone.

As I grow older, I gradually get used to being alone.

This is also the fundamental reason why Ren Yan was able to accept the time travel in the first place and integrate into the new identity very well.

Because it makes no difference to him which world it is in.

But now...

Memories of the past have been awakened.

'I don't know if the graves of the two elders will be abandoned...'

For some reason, Ren Yan felt a little depressed.

But then he shook his head vigorously, completely suppressing this unnecessary longing in his heart.

"I'm almost getting used to my current life, why do I still have to think so much..." Ren Yan smiled self-deprecatingly.

At the same time, I decided in my heart that every year at the time of the car accident in my previous life, I would burn a stick of incense towards the east.

It is a comfort to myself and also the last thought for my original parents.

After adjusting his mood, Ren Yan put on his backpack again and walked into the corridor after the ticket check...

Inside the bag were the spare clothes that Ren Yan had used over the past few days, as well as the special products of the imperial capital that he had brought for the original owner's "parents".

Although in memory, the original owner had never done so.

But Ren Yan still felt that she would feel more at ease if she took some things back to that so-called "home".

Apart from that, there was only a power bank and a card holder for her ID card and bank cards in Ren Yan's bag, nothing else.

This is also a habit that Ren Yan has developed over the years.

Whenever he goes on a long trip, he only brings one bag with him, and things like suitcases are completely out of his consideration.

Not only is it cumbersome, but more importantly, it is not very useful and will only cause inconvenience to yourself everywhere.

Some spare clothes, an ID card and a bank card can be said to be the most portable and effective equipment for going out.

As for the bank card, it contains the deposits that Ren Yan has made during his time as a teacher.

In addition to the basic monthly salary of 4,500 yuan, there are also nearly two months of dividends from the school cafeteria.
