Chapter 439: 439

Gu Miao thought Meng Chuyue wouldn’t say anything, but Meng Chuyue replied cheerfully with a smile, "My surname is Meng, I should be older than you."

"I was born in ’78, you’re not the same year as me, are you?"

Meng Chuyue shook her head, "I was born in ’77."

At this point, Gu Miao also spoke up, "My surname is Gu, born in ’76."

"Oh, nice to meet you, Sister Meng, Sister Gu. It’s great to meet both of you."

At that moment, Shen Ci came back.

Liang Xiaoqing didn’t immediately scrutinize Shen Ci’s face until he sat down next to Meng Chuyue and casually took their backpacks, her face then lit up with excitement and said, "Oh my, how are you guys so perfect for each other?"

Aside from excitement, there was no silly infatuation in her eyes—both Meng Chuyue and Shen Ci sighed with relief. They certainly didn’t want to face two infatuated people right off the bat.

Although Gu Miao was no longer infatuated now, that spiteful glare was also uncomfortable to endure.

Of course, that didn’t mean they would completely trust Liang Xiaoqing.

"One should not harbor ill intentions, but one must guard against those of others. When out and about, it’s better to be careful."

Luckily, for all her enthusiasm, Liang Xiaoqing had a strong sense of boundary and, after a brief chat about their respective hometowns with Meng Chuyue and Gu Miao, she pulled out an art magazine and began reading intently.

Seeing this, Meng Chuyue also picked up a couple of medical books, and she and Shen Ci each focused intently on one.

The two of them absorbed in reading still looked unbelievably charming, catching many glances.

When it was time for dinner, Gu Miao suddenly became agitated.

Being ostracized was not a good feeling, and she didn’t want to experience it again.

After thinking it through, her eyes twinkled, she stood up, and invited Liang Xiaoqing, "Sister Liang, I tried the lunch box at noon, and it didn’t taste very good. How about we go to the restaurant together?"

The restaurant has a menu to order from, and not everything is expensive—there are cheaper options too.

Seeing she didn’t invite Shen Ci and Meng Chuyue, Liang Xiaoqing felt it was a bit odd but still agreed.

She wasn’t on this train for the first time and knew their boxed lunches weren’t tasty.

She had been thinking about going to the restaurant anyway.

However, as she stood up, she politely asked Meng Chuyue, "Why don’t Sister Meng and your husband join us?"

Although Meng Chuyue and Shen Ci didn’t look like wealthy people, they certainly weren’t poor and should afford a restaurant meal.

Meng Chuyue took out a thermal lunch box from her backpack and put it on the table with a smile, "We brought our dinner; you guys go ahead and be careful."

"Oh, okay. Sure."

Liang Xiaoqing was also shocked by their move—are they really that poor? But seeing the high quality of their lunch boxes, she instantly understood.

These people were not especially poor—they were especially wealthy!

After the two left, Meng Chuyue didn’t combine her food into one bowl like she did at noon.

Moreover, there was no rice for dinner.

The main course for dinner was fragrant rice porridge and beef pasties.

The dishes were sliced roast duck, white-cut chicken, cold mixed bamboo shoots, and cold mixed julienne vegetables.

Still making others drool.

But having witnessed their attitude toward Gu Miao at noon, no one dared to come up and ask for food.

Half an hour later, Meng Chuyue and Shen Ci were not yet done eating when Gu Miao came back alone.

Meng Chuyue felt a lump in her throat, but held back her disgust and asked Gu Miao, "Where is Sister Liang?"

Gu Miao gave her a meaningful look, "She ran into someone she knew and went with them to a sleeping car to hang out."

Meng Chuyue smiled and exchanged a knowing smile with Shen Ci. They sped up their eating, finished their food, and went together to wash their dishes.

The two didn’t talk along the way, but after reaching the dining car, Meng Chuyue took out the Polaroid photo she had taken of Gu Miao earlier and asked, "Do you remember this person?"

"I remember, I remember, isn’t she the girl sitting with you guys? I remember." free\we\bnov(e)(l).com

Because Meng Chuyue and Shen Ci were so outstanding, the server not only remembered them but also remembered Gu Miao and Liang Xiaoqing.
