As a father, Chen Junsheng and Su Jiancai quietly wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes.
The two couples separated in front of the station without any communication or even saying goodbye, just like strangers who didn't know each other.
"It's a good thing that our son is going to college. Don't cry, otherwise others will think something happened to our family." Chen Junsheng comforted his wife who was still crying.
"The child left, and I feel sad."
Liu Liping choked up.
Chen Junsheng sighed and said sadly: "The man has ambitions in all directions. Haohao cannot live with us forever. He will eventually have his own life and his own home."
"You're right..."
Liu Liping wiped the tears on her face and tried her best to control her emotions. She didn't want to affect her husband's mood anymore and changed the subject, "I have never seen a girl as beautiful as Xiaoxue. No wonder Haohao doesn't want to visit Liu Guozheng for you."
"It's not necessarily a good thing for Haohao to find such a good-looking partner."
Chen Junsheng was worried.
From ancient times to the present, there are countless examples of beauty causing disaster.
"Our Haohao is also very good."
Liu Liping believed that her son was worthy of Su Xue.
Chen Junsheng understood what his wife meant and said: "Some people don't think so, such as Su Xue's mother."
Liu Liping frowned as she thought of Su Xue's mother's cold and condescending attitude.
On the platform.
Chen Hao and Su Xue are waiting for the train.
Toyokawa is not the departure station, so passengers must arrive at the platform ten minutes in advance to wait for the train.
"How do you feel about traveling far away without your parents?" Chen Hao asked Su Xue with a smile.
"Seeing my mother in tears makes me feel a little sad and reluctant to leave. But thinking about having you by my side in the future makes me very happy and feels at ease."
Su Xue turned her head and looked at Chen Hao.
Chen Hao held Su Xue's hand.
On the platform, the two of them were close to each other.
Su Xue rested her head on Chen Hao's shoulder.
"Woo..."
The train whistle.
When people saw the car coming into the station, they picked up large and small bags one after another.
"The car is here."
Su Xue also wants to move.
"We are sitting in soft sleepers, so we don't have to squeeze in with them." Chen Hao whispered in Su Xue's ear.
Three days ago, he asked Zhao Zhiqiang to buy two soft sleeper tickets. To be precise, he obtained two soft sleeper tickets through connections.
Drive to Zhongzhou.
He thought about doing this.
But right now, the highway from Xijing through Fengchuan to Zhongzhou has just begun to be planned and designed. Construction will start next year at the earliest and will be opened to traffic in 1998.
It takes ten hours to drive to Zhongzhou via a national or provincial highway, which is not as fast as the train. Moreover, you can lie down and sleep in a soft sleeper, which is much more comfortable than driving.
The train slowed down but had not stopped yet. Many people ran after the train for fear of not being able to get on.
The soft sleeper compartment is in the middle of the train, next to the dining car. The female conductor who opened the door saw Chen Hao and Su Xue about to get on the train, and frowned: "Go to the back, you can't get on here."
The female conductor determined that it was impossible for Chen Hao and Su Xue to buy a soft sleeper ticket.
Chen Hao showed his ticket.
The ticket is a very hard paper card, less than two centimeters wide and four or five centimeters long.
The female conductor checked the tickets repeatedly to confirm that they were correct before letting them get on the train.
Chen Hao found a berth.
There are two bunks, one above the other, in the same small private room.
There are already two people in the small private room.
These two people looked like students, and they occupied both lower bunks.
Chen Hao said to one of them: "I'm sorry, this shop belongs to me."
"Can't you sleep up there?"
As he spoke, this guy looked at Chen Hao sideways, looking very arrogant.
"This shop is mine." Chen Hao said again, his eyes turning cold.
