Chapter 161: The long road to study, a real-life version of Lost on Journey
Wang Wenxuan is here.
Jiang Mei did give Jiang Chen some face.
Mr. and Mrs. Jiang stopped nagging.
Instead, he gave some more instructions and exchanged a few words with Wang Wenxuan before sending the two of them on a bus to Qianyang.
It is not easy to go from Luzhou to Jiangcheng.
Jiangcheng, as the capital of Taining Province, one of the three northeastern provinces, is more than 3,000 kilometers away from Qianzhou Province.
Even if you take a plane, it will take several hours to get there.
Moreover, there are no direct flights from Luzhou's Feixiong Airport to Jiangcheng.
Even if you want to take a plane, you either go to Qianyang Longdongbao Airport or transfer midway.
It's all very time-consuming and laborious.
In addition, Wang Wenxuan's family was not well off, and a ticket costing more than a thousand yuan was a bit unaffordable for him.
So Jiang Chen decided to take the train with him to report to school.
There are no trains in Luzhou.
You have to go to Qianyang by train.
So the two of them had to take a bus for several hours to Qianyang, then take a twenty-eight or twenty-nine hour green train from Qianyang to the capital, and then transfer from the capital to Jiangcheng, which would also take about ten hours.
All together, it’s almost forty hours.
Two days and two nights!
It can be called the real-life version of Lost on Journey.
Jiang Chen couldn't help but sigh when he thought about taking such a long train ride.
Ugh!
If it wasn't for the purpose of leaving home a few days earlier.
He really didn't want to take the Laozi green train.
Not only are there a lot of people and the environment is bad, but you also have to stay in the car for thirty or forty hours.
Even if he is a man of iron.
I'll probably be covered in sweat when I get off the bus.
It only takes a few hours by plane.
Why should I suffer this kind of hardship?
But now the die is cast.
It's too late to say anything.
Wang Wenxuan's face was full of excitement.
Especially when he knew that Jiang Chen was willing to ride the green train to school with him, he was so moved that he almost burst into tears.
Xiaochengzi is really loyal.
I am willing to endure this kind of suffering.
Nothing more to say.
Good buddies, for life.
"Hey, why isn't your Xie Shiying here to see you off? Which university has she applied to and when does the school start?" The two of them got in the car, and before they even had time to sit down, Wang Wenxuan was chattering like an old mother.
Jiang Chen glanced out the car window again.
Then he said unhappily, "I have my own problems. I'm not going to fight in the battlefield. Do I need someone to send me off?"
Wang Wenxuan raised his eyebrows and immediately asked, "Are you quarreling?"
He saw that Jiang Chen didn't answer.
He immediately said with certainty, "It must be a quarrel. Tell your buddies, why did you quarrel? Oh, I know, your affair has been exposed."
"Get lost." Jiang Chen's face was full of black lines. "I have always been upright, so what the hell is this?"
Wang Wenxuan glanced at him.
An expression that said, "You can fool yourself, but it's no fun to fool your friends."
"Haha. I know you're flirting with that pretty stewardess, the icy beauty Fu Shiyu. I'm not saying anything bad about you, but your Xie Shiying is pretty enough, and you still want to flirt with other girls."
Before Wang Wenxuan could finish his words, Jiang Chen had already raised his foot and kicked him.
"I dodge." Wang Wenxuan was agile and dodged Jiang Chen's attack with a flash.
Then he stood not far away and said with a grin, "You got angry out of shame. I guess what my buddy said was right."
"By the way, which university did Xie Shiying get into? When did the school start? Why didn't she go with us?" Wang Wenxuan asked again.
Jiang Chen said unhappily, "Nankai University, their school doesn't start until September 10th, why are you going there so early?"
"Nankai University?" Wang Wenxuan sat back down next to Jiang Chen, stroking his bald chin and said, "Nankai University in Tianjin? This university is not bad, and it's in the north, so it will be convenient for me to find you in the future."
"Ah, it's true that comparing yourself to others makes you angry. Wherever you go, you're like a walking hormone. Even an iceberg beauty like Fu Shiyu can be attracted by you. I've lived for half of my life, but up to now, no girl has taken the initiative to say a word to me."
Jiang Chen looked at him with a smile and said, "Do you know the reason?"
Wang Wenxuan asked quickly, "What's the reason?"
"Eating lotus root, what else could it be?"
"Eat lotus root?" Wang Wenxuan was confused. But after he repeated it several times, he finally understood Jiang Chen's hidden meaning.
Suddenly I became furious.
Then he rushed towards Jiang Chen, "Good boy, you keep calling me ugly, right? See if I can do something to you or not, and you're done for."
Jiang Chen quickly begged for mercy, "I'm wrong, I'm wrong, I'm wrong, okay, be gentle, go buy a disc"
Eleven o'clock in the morning.
The bus bound for Qianyang finally left Luzhou East Bus Station.
Watching the bus gradually disappearing in the traffic.
Xie Shiying rubbed her red eyes, turned her head and said to Zhao Yingying, "Let's go. I can't walk around anymore. I want to go home."
Zhao Yingying saw this.
She immediately said unhappily, "You were the one who asked me to go shopping with you. I really thought you, a nerdy girl, had changed your personality."
"I didn't expect that the 'shopping' you mentioned meant walking around the bus station, right?"
"If you want to see someone off, then come openly. If you don't want to see him, then don't come. If you sneak around like you, people will think you are the one stealing."
Zhao Yingying poked her finger at Xie Shiying's forehead, looking very disappointed. "If I were you, I would have made that bastard kneel down and sing "Conquer" to me. But you are just like a bullied young wife."
“What a shame!”
Xie Shiying quickly explained, "I just wanted to go out for a walk, not to see him off."
"Besides, I have nothing to do with him, why would I punish him?"
Zhao Yingying sighed.
He looked speechless and said, "I don't care about you."
It’s past four in the afternoon.
The bus finally drove into Jinyang Bus Station.
Jinyang Bus Station is about 20 to 30 kilometers away from the railway station.
So the two of them carried their large and small suitcases, hailed a taxi, and hurried to the train station.
Taxis in Qianyang are notoriously shady.
How dark is it?
If we pick out and execute these taxi drivers one by one, it is estimated that only one or two out of ten are innocent.
as predicted.
The taxi driver saw Jiang Chen and Wang Wenxuan coming out of the bus station, carrying large and small bags of luggage.
They are all dressed very ordinary.
So you can guess with your eyes closed that they both came from small places to study/work outside.
This is a fat sheep that comes right to your door.
It would be a waste not to kill!
The driver took the two of them for a long circle on the ring road, and then slowly drove to the train station.
In the car.
Wang Wenxuan looked at the meter whose numbers kept changing.
A face full of pain.
He couldn't help but poke Jiang Chen with his elbow and whispered, "Xiao Chengzi, have we been detoured?"
Jiang Chen was too lazy to pay attention to him.
Instead, he continued to close his eyes and rest.
It's after five o'clock in the afternoon.
The taxi finally carried the two people to Qianyang Railway Station.
The driver turned around with a lewd look on his face and said with a grin, "Two brothers, we're at the train station. The fare is 178.5 yuan. You should be students, so I'll just charge you 170 yuan."
Jiang Chen was so angry that he laughed when he heard this.
This driver is really generous.
He even gave me a change of eight dollars and fifty cents.
Jiang Chen looked up at Wang Wenxuan, who was at a loss, and said helplessly, "What are you still standing there for?"
Wang Wenxuan thought it was Jiang Chen who asked him to pay.
He quickly took out two red bills and was about to hand them to the driver.
Jiang Chen quickly stopped him.
He cursed, "Brother, I told you to call the police, why did you give him money?"
"It's only 20 kilometers from Jinyang Bus Station to Qianyang Railway Station, and a taxi costs 50 yuan at most. He's asking for 170 yuan. Does he really think we are poor students from the countryside and easy to bully?"
"You call the police, and I'll call Officer Chen from the military sub-district. Damn it, this is our fault."
"If the police don't care, we will tell them that we are students of the Air Force University. If they dare not care, we will report it to the provincial military sub-district."
I had been sitting in the car all day and was feeling very angry.
Now someone has delivered it to your door.
Don't you need to vent your anger?
