Back to the 80s: Raising my Wolfy Boyfriend-Chapter 103: An Encounter with a Simpleton on the Train
Gu Jin placed the cup filled with malted milk on the table and handed the washed apple to An Mingji, while still holding one apple herself.
She took a bite of the crispy, juicy apple and leaned against the door, staring at the woman across from her.
The other woman did not expect Gu Jin to refuse outright.
In her eyes, Gu Jin was just a country girl who would surely be blinded by money, but the outcome was far from satisfactory, making her expression even darker for the moment.
Unwilling to give up, she fixed her eyes knowingly on Gu Jin and asked, "How much money do you want to give me this berth?"
Gu Jin swallowed the apple in her mouth and her eyebrows shifted, her eyes cold as ice: "Don’t understand human language? I said I’m not giving it, we don’t want money."
"You... you’re being unreasonable!" The woman lashed out in anger without choosing her words carefully.
Gu Jin knew talking with this unreasonable woman was pointless; she was basically an idiot.
She was too lazy to pay her any heed and looked at the young man behind the woman, saying, "Firstly, remove your things and we won’t disturb each other, secondly, I’ll find the train staff to resolve the issue." 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶
No matter how the issue was resolved, the berth would not be given up; if they were short on money, they wouldn’t have bought the lower berth in the first place.
The man, hearing her, quickly moved to gather their belongings from the lower berth, placing everything on the upper berth.
"What are you doing?!" The woman panicked.
"Lili, the lower berth wasn’t ours to begin with, they are unwilling and we can’t force them," the man said, while moving things and advising her.
Called Lili, the woman was so angry she was short of breath, talking without thinking: "Liang Xia, do you like her because she looks prettier than me?!"
"Stop saying nonsense, it wasn’t ours to start with, stop making a scene."
The man was extremely frustrated and after moving the belongings, earnestly and kindly persuaded Lili to climb to the upper berth.
He gave Gu Jin a very apologetic look.
Lili didn’t understand, but he did; just looking at the food this sibling pair brought out, he knew they were definitely not as simple as their outward appearances.
The girl was dressed plainly, but the boy’s clothing material and style indicated they were worth quite a bit, plus the food they brought, malted milk, White Rabbit candies, with fresh juicy apples.
This wasn’t what an ordinary family could afford to eat.
He and Lili were heading to Shenzhen for work, and though his salary was decent, he couldn’t afford such fine foods on a daily basis either.
Quiet returned to the compartment, Gu Jin quickly finished her apple, picked up the clean sheet next to An Mingji, and spread it over the empty lower berth.
After tidying up, she turned to An Mingji and said, "Later when you’re tired, sleep on this bed."
"Hm." The boy nodded while gnawing the apple.
Gu Jin went to the table, feeling the temperature of the cup of malted milk she had prepared, then handed it to the boy when she felt it was right: "Tomorrow let’s see if they sell eggs on the train, hold on for a few days, when we’re back home I’ll make you some tasty food."
An Mingji accepted the cup, and looking up with an innocent gaze asked, "Sister Jin, where are we going?"
The child’s question reminded Gu Jin she hadn’t yet told him their destination.
Thinking about her cousin’s situation, Gu Jin felt her mood sink again.
She sat beside the child, speaking softly: "Jiajie is in trouble, we’re going to Shenzhen now, we may stay there for a few days, once we arrive, you must stick close to me, understand?"
"Hm." An Mingji nodded vigorously, then slowly lowered his eyes.
His eyes revealed an expression of inevitability; he had already suspected this before, and now it was indeed related to Gu Jiajie.
