The train departure time was already late, and after chatting for a while, it was time to turn off the lights and sleep. Although many people said they could sleep easily on a swaying train, An Xi still looked out the pitch-black window, unable to fall asleep…
Around seven in the morning, An Xi had probably only slept for a few hours and could no longer sleep. After briefly washing up, she nibbled on bread and stared blankly out the window, looking lost.
The entire day was spent playing poker, eating, using phones, and chatting. Occasionally, an auntie service worker would push a cart of fruits, shouting “Ten yuan a box”.
Shen Yi raised her eyebrows, throwing down a seven of spades, “Such a small box is so expensive, I won’t buy it!”
“Ten…”
The girl on the upper bunk threw down a card, “But it feels so dry on the train!”
“Then… K!”
An Xi smiled and added, “We can buy fruits after getting off the train! Y City’s fruits are famous for being delicious!
I’ve decided! When that auntie passes by again, I’ll buy a box… I’ll pay with a small bill!” As soon as she started talking about fruit, Shen Yi licked her lips with lingering enjoyment and made up her mind. “Okay, okay! Big King beats you!” An Qi called out happily, “We’ll probably arrive in about seven hours, right?” “Yes! It seems like it’ll be around midnight… The tour guide just said that after getting off the bus, we’ll still have over an hour’s journey before reaching the community!” The girl on the upper bunk opened a bag of lollipops and handed one out. “Fruit, fruit, eight yuan a box!” How cheap… The auntie pushing the fruit cart came back again, and Shen Yi immediately ran over to buy a box of Hami melon, stabbed a piece and stuffed it in her mouth, looking completely satisfied. Then she passed some to An Qi and the girl on the upper bunk, gesturing for them to help themselves. Of course, as they got closer to their destination, the fruit became cheaper… When the auntie shouted “Fruit, two boxes for six yuan”, Shen Yi’s face darkened… Although the journey was somewhat tiring, the laughter and cheerful voices made for a pretty good memory.
