Chapter 180 All acquaintances
After being stuck in traffic for half an hour, I finally arrived at the train station.
During the holiday, the crowds were so dense that she didn't have time to meet up with Feng Jiashu before rushing to queue up for the bus.
Feng Jiashu bought her a business class seat.
To be honest, it was her first time sitting in business class, and she was dumbfounded when she walked into the business class carriage with great excitement.
Everyone there was someone I knew.
Liu Biao: Are you surprised to see me?
Aunt Chen: "Qiaoyun, I was just about to send you a message."
Mr. Chen: "What a coincidence."
Chen Jingzhou: "Aunt He."
Tian Tian: "Aunt He, you've finally arrived."
Wang Ma: "We've caught a good time; I can go out and play too."
Feng Jiashu: "Come and sit down."
He Qiaoyun's smile froze for a moment before she walked to her seat and sat down.
The business class seats are single seats, and there is one empty seat left.
Just when everyone thought everyone had arrived, Xu Hemei suddenly rushed in, dragging her suitcase.
She gasped for breath and murmured, "Phew, I made it."
Looking up, I saw familiar faces all over the carriage. Thinking I was still half asleep, I turned around to look behind me, and then looked at them again.
"Am I dreaming?" She raised her hand and patted her forehead.
Liu Biao smiled and waved to her, "No dream, goddaughter, come sit down, we've been waiting for you."
Xu Hemei pinched herself, realizing she wasn't dreaming. She stopped smiling, nodded to them, and sat down.
When Chen Ma saw Xu Hemei, she turned around and glanced at her son, her smile almost reaching her ears. "Little Xu, where are you going this time?"
Xu Hemei smiled and gave a place name.
The next moment, Liu Biao clapped his hands happily, "What a coincidence, we're also going to Shacheng."
When the three groups checked their accounts, they discovered that they had been following the same travel guide, except that Xu Hemei only traveled one-third of the route because she only had one-third of her vacation time.
He Qiaoyun was actually quite worried that her daughter might impulsively fall in love with someone during the trip. Falling in love was fine, but she was afraid that her daughter would be deceived.
Now that they are all together, her anxiety has finally subsided.
Chen Ma said, "This is such an incredible coincidence that we can even meet on our travels."
Everyone else's participation was by chance, but Liu Biao was forced to join. However, he didn't care about that. As long as he could go out and have fun with He Qiaoyun, nothing could stop him.
He patted the chair in front of him and handed He Qiaoyun a pancake and breakfast soy milk. "Qiaoyun, you must have rushed out without having breakfast. Here you go."
Sitting next to her, Feng Jiashu also took out a serving of steamed buns and milk. "Qiaoyun, this is what I brought for you."
Immediately, all eyes on the bus fell on them.
Some were craving breakfast, some were curious, and some had doubts.
He Qiaoyun smiled and declined, "No need, I ate in the taxi this morning, so I'm not hungry."
When Xu Hemei saw that He Qiaoyun wasn't eating, she smiled and said, "Uncle Liu, Uncle Feng, my mom isn't eating, but I will. I only got off work at midnight last night, and I woke up early this morning to catch the bus. I haven't eaten for more than twelve hours, and I'm starving."
Liu Biao reluctantly handed it to Xu Hemei: "Here, eat it while it's hot."
Uncle Feng Jia also handed it to her, saying, "Here you go."
Xu Hemei smiled and accepted the gift, saying, "Thank you, Uncle Liu, thank you, Uncle Feng."
Chen Ma immediately saw through the two men's feelings for He Qiaoyun. She quietly picked up her phone and sent He Qiaoyun a WeChat message: "Qiaoyun, do they both have feelings for you?"
He Qiaoyun received the WeChat message, sighed in exasperation, and replied: "Maybe."
Chen Ma: [So, which one do you like?]
He Qiaoyun: [I...I don't know either.]
To be honest, she was also confused.
After today's events, it's basically confirmed that the person Liu Biao has liked for many years is himself.
Because, as he had said, the person he liked was already single, so he should spend this long vacation with her instead of wasting his energy trying to get between her and Feng Jiashu.
This put her in a difficult position, unable to make a decision, and unwilling to hurt either party.
Chen Ma glanced back at her, then her gaze fell on Xu Hemei.
Xu Hemei had no intention of developing a relationship with Chen Jingzhou, and she was too lazy to care about her image. She didn't even put on makeup, just casually tied her hair up, put on her headphones, opened her tablet, and watched a drama while eating breakfast.
But in Chen's mother's eyes, this girl was full of energy. She would leave early in the morning after finishing her get off work in the early hours of the morning to catch the bus without complaining of being tired. She had a good appetite, was easygoing and unpretentious, and was beautiful, cute and polite. She was satisfied with her in every way.
Looking back at my son, he's a person too.
He said he was accompanying them on a trip, but he was just sitting there typing away on his laptop, not even bothering to talk to the girl. He really wasted this great opportunity.
The young people were focused on their own things, while the middle-aged people were chatting away. Tian Tian couldn't understand the adults' conversation and was quite bored, so she went up to Xu Hemei and asked, "Sister, what are you looking at?"
Xu Hemei took off her headphones, moved aside to make room for her, and said, "Sit down."
Tian Tian sat down next to her, took out her own tablet, and shared it with her, "Sister, this is my puppy."
Xu Hemei turned off the TV and admired her photos.
"And there are chicks, ducklings, and rabbits; they all have names..."
The carriage was noisy and bustling, filled with laughter and song, as it headed towards its next destination.

The train arrived at the station as the sun rose high in the sky.
A group of people got off the train and walked out of the high-speed rail station. Just as they were about to hail a taxi, Feng Jiashu said to them, "No need to trouble yourself, I've arranged a car."
As they were talking, they saw three black Alphards parked by the roadside.
All three groups of people were going to the same hotel.
The hotel belongs to the Feng Group, so Feng Jiashu naturally stays in his own hotel. Chen Jingzhou, now that he has money, rarely takes his parents on trips, so of course he chooses the best hotel. As for Xu Hemei, needless to say, she is not short of money, so she will not treat herself badly.
As for Liu Biao, he didn't care where he stayed. He would stay wherever He Qiaoyun stayed. Even if He Qiaoyun stayed in a hotel that cost 100,000 yuan a night, he had plenty of money to accompany her.
After the three groups found good hotels, the next step was to assign vehicles.
Chen Jingzhou's family of three lives in one car.
That leaves six of them.
Liu Biao wanted to sit with He Qiaoyun, and he divided the seats, saying, "We'll split them into three groups: you with the child and the nanny, and I with Qiaoyun and my goddaughter. That's settled."
Feng Jiashu looked at He Qiaoyun and asked her, "Is this alright?"
Liu Biao found Feng Jiashu's snobbish manner annoying. He clicked his tongue impatiently and said, "What's wrong with asking? Don't you know how annoying you are?"
He Qiaoyun was caught in the middle and felt quite awkward; the smile on her face even became a little stiff.
Seeing her dilemma, Feng Jiashu didn't want to force her to choose anymore, so he said, "Okay, let's leave it at that."
Xu Hemei had just taken a half-hour nap, and her muddled mind had now cleared up, allowing her to understand the chaotic situation between the two men.
To her surprise, Uncle Liu actually... Could it be that the person he had liked for so many years was her mother?
The thought left her rooted to the spot, momentarily stunned.
"Xiaomei, get in the car. What are you thinking about?" He Qiaoyun called out to her, and she came back to her senses.
"Oh, here it comes."
