Upon hearing this, the young lady pursed her lips slightly, a hint of helplessness flashed in her eyes, but she did not refute and silently began to pack up her things.

Seeing this, the middle-aged woman snorted lightly, her voice full of contempt and dissatisfaction. Then she took the little boy's chubby hand and glanced around the car.

It first landed on the old lady, then after a moment, turned to the girl who had just helped get the medicine. He then looked directly at her, forcing a seemingly kind smile on his face, but the smile did not reach his eyes. He asked tentatively, "Girl, are you in the lower bunk here?"

Shen Xiaoxia raised her eyebrows when she heard that. She's here already?

The girl was sitting on the bed resting. She nodded when she heard this and said, "Yes, what's wrong?"

"Girl, this is what I'm saying," the middle-aged woman said, as if she had already prepared her words. She pushed the little boy forward, his face flushed from the cold. "We bought the upper and middle berths, and it's not very convenient to bring a child with us. Can I switch with you?"

His voice softened a bit at this moment, with a hint of pleading, and his eyes occasionally glanced at other passengers around him, as if he wanted to use the eyes of the crowd to put pressure on others!

The girl raised her eyebrows when she heard that. When you go out, there are always people making all kinds of calculations. She frowned and thought for a moment, then raised her eyes and smiled, "Okay!"

She agreed readily, her voice clear and loud!

Before the middle-aged woman could happily express her gratitude, she continued, "The price of the lower bunk is a little higher than the middle and upper bunks. So, are you going to pay for the upper bunk or the middle bunk?"

After hearing her words, the woman's smile, which was about to thank her, froze. Her displeasure was evident. She curled her lips and raised her voice, saying, "We're on the same train. I just want to trade seats with you. You're so young, what's wrong with climbing onto the upper bunk? Why do you want money?"

There was obvious accusation in her words and her eyes were full of dissatisfaction with the girl. It seemed that in her opinion, young people should give up their seats unconditionally, and talking about money was simply treasonous!

The girl didn't get angry, and continued to smile, but there was a hint of sarcasm in her smile. "It's no problem for me to climb up to the upper bunk at my young age. Didn't I say I can give it up, but you need to pay the difference? Why? We have no relatives, so why should I pay for the lower bunk and suffer the pain of the upper bunk? Why?"

She spoke at a steady pace and clearly!

The other passengers in the carriage who were originally resting or chatting heard the argument and gathered around. For a moment, a lot of people gathered in the small aisle of the carriage.

Everyone was either curious or just looking to watch the fun, their eyes moving back and forth between the middle-aged woman and the girl.

The middle-aged woman felt a little embarrassed when she heard this and glared at the girl. When buying the ticket, in order to save a few dollars, she specifically asked her family to buy the upper bunk, and she only asked for the middle bunk because the upper bunk was sold out.

After getting on the bus, she saw that there was a girl in the lower bunk. She thought that the girl was shy, so she spoke up. If the other party agreed, that would be the best. If not, she had a lot of words and tricks in her mind, and she would always find a way to make her give up the bunk!

She didn't expect the other party to be so willing to give in so readily, but was stuck at the point of paying the difference. If she was willing to pay the difference, would she be arguing with a girl here now?

"Girl, why are you so fussy about something like one or two dollars?"

There was a hint of frustration in her tone, and she tried to use the moral stick to suppress the girl again!

Shen Xiaoxia was sharp-eyed and saw that the girl secretly pinched her arm while no one was paying attention. Her eyes turned red instantly, and the tears in her eyes sparkled in the dim light, which made people feel pity for her.

She raised her head, her voice choking with sobs, "Auntie, your family has a lot of savings, so you certainly won't mind a couple of dollars, but my family is poor, and I have to live frugally for a long time to save up a couple of dollars. I also think that since I'm young, it's not a problem for me to get an upper bunk. I bought the lower bunk because I didn't have a ticket for the upper bunk. Now that you're willing to exchange with me and let me earn back that couple of dollars, I'm very happy. You see, whether you want to exchange for the upper or lower bunk, I'm fine with it..."

As she said this, she stood up and picked up her luggage. Her meaning was very clear: if the other party was willing, she would give it to him now!

The middle-aged woman looked at the girl's "performance", then looked at the people around her pointing and whispering, and her face turned pale and red.

She was filled with anger, but she had no way to vent it. Her face turned pale as she squeezed out a few words from between her teeth, "No need!"

Then she cursed a few words to the air, which were nothing but complaints about the decline of morals and the change of people's hearts. Seeing that no one agreed with her, her voice became smaller and smaller, and finally she could only turn around in disappointment and pack her luggage.

The girl was not affected by this. She gently patted the non-existent dust on her clothes and put her luggage back on the bed with graceful and calm movements. Then she continued to sit on the bed, closed her eyes, and rested leisurely as if nothing had happened just now.

Shen Xiaoxia watched from the side. She chose the upper bunk because she didn't want to deal with these trivial and annoying things. Anyway, she felt that there was not much difference between the upper bunk and the lower bunk.

I originally thought that the girl would suffer a loss. After all, the middle-aged woman didn't look like a good person. I didn't expect that the girl was so strong in fighting. She turned the situation around in just a few words. It was quite interesting!

There was no more excitement to watch, so everyone around had dispersed. The train had already started. The lights on the walls were dim and swayed gently with the shaking of the car body, adding a hazy atmosphere to the entire carriage.

Shen Xiaoxia sat quietly by the car window, her chin supported by one hand, her elbow resting on the slightly shaking small table, staring out the window without blinking.

Outside, the night was as thick as ink. Only the dim and highly penetrating light of the locomotive flickered and swayed in the endless darkness!

I wonder if Jiang Yan has returned now?

She took out the watch from her pocket. The hands on the dial flickered faintly under the dim light of the carriage. She squinted her eyes slightly and looked at the time carefully. It was almost eleven o'clock!

At this time, if Jiang Yan sent her back immediately after sending her there, according to the distance he had traveled, he should have almost reached Qin Song's house by now, right?

When she thought of the scene when she parted with Jiang Yan in the waiting hall just now, the corners of Shen Xiaoxia's mouth unconsciously rose, revealing a gentle smile.

There were stars twinkling in their eyes. Just like that, they confirmed their relationship?

A faint blush appeared on her fair cheeks, as if... This sudden feeling of love is quite good!
