On the train, Xia Qing leaned against the seat back and took a nap.

I didn’t sleep well last night and got up early this morning.

They were almost at Beijing Station in a daze. The conductor was making announcements in the entire carriage. Xia Qing took her suitcase and backpack in advance, took her cell phone and the snacks her father had bought for her, and went to the door of the carriage to wait for the train to arrive.

Only then did she look down at her phone and found three missed calls from Jiang Shao.

Xia Qing didn't know what he wanted to do. Was he at school? Shouldn't he have arrived long ago?

Xia Qing dialed the number and the call was picked up quickly.

"What's wrong, Jiang Shao?" Xia Qing had just woken up, and her voice was a little soft and weak.

"Have you arrived at your stop?" It was very noisy and chaotic over there.

"No, didn't I tell you it might arrive in the evening? I just arrived at Beijing Station."

"Have you arrived at your station? Have you left?"

"We'll be there soon. We're walking out." The train arrived at the station, the conductor opened the train door, and Xia Qing walked with the crowd while talking to Jiang Shao.

"I'll wait for you at the exit~"

"I know. If you go later in the afternoon, I won't arrive at the station until after 6 p.m., and it will be dark." In fact, Xia Qing didn't need him to pick her up. She could just take a taxi back to school when she got to the station.

"I said, I'll wait for you at the exit of Beijing Station~~" There were too many people waiting for Jiang Shao to pick him up at the station, so he couldn't help but raise his voice.

"Ah!? You're at Beijing Station?"

"Well, be careful when you leave the station so we don't miss each other."

A surprise came in an instant. Xia Qing hurriedly pulled the luggage and walked away quickly, even jogging behind. The wheels of the suitcase were rubbing so hard that they were about to catch fire.

Go through the ticket gate at the exit and go outside.

There were too many people so crowded together that I couldn't see anything.

Fortunately, Jiang Shao had sharp eyes and saw her at a glance. He immediately squeezed through the crowd and came to her.

Seeing that the other person was right in front of him, but the person in front of him was still blindly looking for her but couldn't see her, he felt helpless.

He interrupted her and said, "Baby, who are you looking for?" Then he watched her unfocused eyes change from stunned to surprised.

He stood there smiling slightly, and just as Jiang Shao expected, the moment he saw him, he jumped on him and hugged him.

"Uh..." I almost dropped it. My girlfriend didn't gain much weight during the winter break, so why is she so heavy?

But I didn’t think much about it at that time. I just hugged him back tightly to relieve the longing I had felt for the whole holiday.

After letting Xia Qing get off him and helping her with the luggage, he realized why it was so heavy just now.

My girlfriend’s backpack must be filled with a lot of big rocks. It’s so damn heavy.

Jiang Shao only had a backpack as his luggage. He fixed Xia Qing's backpack on the suitcase, and went to take the subway while holding Xia Qing's luggage in one hand and holding his hand in the other.

Beijing is a big city, and the distance didn't feel particularly far. It took at least an hour to get there, and it was almost 1 p.m. when I arrived at Beijing West Railway Station.

Jiang Shao asked her, "You haven't had lunch yet, are you hungry? I'm going to buy something over there, KFC, McDonald's, or noodles?"

"Xia Qing had eaten at Beijing Station, but the price was too high for her to go there a second time, as she came from a small town. So every time she got on the train, she would buy something to eat before boarding.

"What do you want to eat?" But Jiang Shao didn't eat either. He might want to eat some hot food.

"How about having a KFC?" Jiang Shao asked in a negotiating manner.

"Then I'll have an Orleans chicken burger," Xia Qing said to him.

After a while, Jiang Shao came back with four burgers, a serving of French fries, two pies, and two drinks.

"Things at the train station are not cheap. Eat some food first and I'll take you to eat something good when we get back to school." Each of them had a burger and a drink to fill their stomachs.

Xia Qing knew that Jiang Shao might be trying to accommodate him. They were close friends, and sometimes their consumption concepts were also used to determine whether two people were suitable for each other. Xia Qing was a student and did not have much living expenses, so it was impossible for her to pretend to be rich and keep spending on things she could not afford.

It is even more impossible for her to be so shameless as to let Jiang Shao spend money and accept it without any pressure just because they are boyfriend and girlfriend.

We should be more honest and expose the problem first.

"Every time I take the train, I prepare some food in advance, and she shows him what her father bought for her. We just make do with it, and we rarely eat at the train station."

"Baby, as a boyfriend, I want to give you the best when I am able to, including giving you a hot meal and picking you up in Beijing. The last thing I want is to put pressure on you or make you think too much."

"My kindness to you comes from my love for you. I don't want you to feel pressured to think about how to repay me."

"I know you have a high self-esteem and don't want to spend your boyfriend's money, but I feel happy to spend money on you, because being able to spend money on you makes me feel that I am still a responsible man."

"So don't reject my kindness, okay?" Then he joked, "When I have money, we are happy together. When I have no money, we suffer together."

Xia Qing felt that she had been being too stubborn before. For the sake of her self-esteem, she was unwilling to spend any of her boyfriend's money, for fear that others would think she was materialistic. But what was wrong with spending her boyfriend's money?

It's like a rift between lovers when they are so clearly divided.

Xia Qing picked up an Orleans chicken burger and started eating, which was considered as her agreement with Jiang Shao's words.

Jiang Shao felt that his girlfriend was finally no longer awkward, and he had nothing to worry about in the future. He wanted to give her more and better things, and he wanted to make her happy and feel blessed.

"Drink this, it's hot!" He took out the hot drink he bought for her and handed it to her. After she took it, he picked up the hamburger he wanted to eat, and the two leaned together to start eating lunch.
