Chapter 183 Father Shen Picks Up Someone
Shen Xiaoxia once saw netizens comparing the cold in the north and south online. They said that the cold in the north is a "physical attack" and as long as you take good warming measures, you can move around outdoors relatively freely. The damp cold in the south is a "magic attack" and the cold is pervasive!
At the exit, people were coming and going, bustling about. Shen Xiaoxia walked out of the exit slowly, narrowed her eyes slightly, and looked around carefully. This strange yet somewhat familiar city came into view, and memories also surged, some of hers and some of the original owner's!
The Shen family’s house is not particularly far from the train station. If you don’t waste time, it will only take 40 to 50 minutes to walk there.
Shen's father has been to the train station several times in the past few days. There is only one train from where Shen Xiaoxia goes to the countryside, so every time the train is about to arrive, he will come to check.
Today was no exception. In the middle of the night, he hurriedly ran across the train station in the dark.
After waiting for a long time, no one came out of the station. After asking the station staff, I learned that the train was delayed on the road and would arrive several hours later.
So he went back and took a nap. Before dawn, when the sky was just beginning to turn a little pale, he couldn't wait to get up, washed up quickly, and rushed to the train station!
At this moment, he saw many people coming out, so he pulled them over to ask, and they said that the train from Heilongjiang Province had arrived. He stood near the exit, staring at every person coming out of the station, his eyes full of concern and worry, for fear that he would miss his daughter if he was not careful.
In his mind, Shen Xiaoxia had to do heavy labor every day in that harsh countryside, exposed to the wind and sun. Not to mention that she looked pale and thin, her appearance was definitely not much better!
So, when Shen Xiaoxia walked towards him with light steps from not far away, he was slightly stunned at first. He felt that the person's face was very similar to his daughter, but he was a little hesitant to recognize her.
Although Shen Xiaoxia's face in front of me still looks the same as I remember, her temperament seems to have changed a lot. She is no longer the slightly immature little girl, but has become more confident and calm!
Shen Xiaoxia is not the original owner. Although she has the original owner's memories, except for the first half month after she arrived, she has been living with the Shen family for half a month according to her memories.
After going to the countryside, she has been living in her own way. She has the blessing of various "fine products" produced by the system, and the existence of space materials, which gives her enough confidence.
Although the work is still hard, she has always maintained a very good attitude and taken good care of herself. After a long time, she almost forgot what the original owner looked like in her memory!
Just when Shen Xiaoxia was about to pass by Shen's father, Shen's father hesitated and called out in a trembling voice, "Xia Xia...!"
That voice was filled with longing and uncertainty.
Hearing the shout, Shen Xiaoxia paused and subconsciously responded, "Hmm...?", then turned her head to look in the direction of the sound, and saw Shen's father standing not far away.
It has been almost two years since I last saw him. Compared to how I remembered him, Mr. Shen now looked noticeably older.
A lot of gray hair had grown on his temples, which looked particularly dazzling in the morning light. The wrinkles on his face had also become deeper, like traces left by the years.
There was a hint of fatigue in his eyes, but more of it was joy to see his daughter.
Shen Xiaoxia was stunned. She didn't expect that Shen's father would come to the station to pick her up.
Although she wrote a letter to tell her family the approximate date of departure, she could not guarantee that she would be able to leave on those two days. She might leave earlier or be delayed by something.
After buying the ticket, she had a thought: to send a telegram to her family to tell them her specific departure time so that her family could be prepared!
After thinking about it, she gave up. She arrived in the middle of the night and had originally planned to find a guesthouse near the station to rest and then go back after dawn.
I never thought about asking her family to pick her up!
Seeing Father Shen at this moment, besides being a little surprised, she was also a little happy. Seeing that Father Shen was stunned, she was the first to call out, "Dad..., why are you here?"
When he heard the other person calling him dad, Mr. Shen was shocked to realize that it was really his daughter, "Xia Xia..., you...!"
He was a little dazed for a moment, feeling that the daughter standing in front of him seemed both familiar and unfamiliar to him. For a moment, he even felt a little at a loss!
Seeing Shen Xiaoxia looking at him, Father Shen immediately came back to his senses, a kind smile appeared on his face, and he said softly, "Dad is here to pick you up!"
There was love and care in his tone, as if Shen Xiaoxia was still the little girl who needed his protection!
After Shen Xiaoxia heard this, a warm feeling welled up in her heart, but she didn't know what to say. Her expression was a little complicated. After thinking for a while, she finally explained, "This bus stopped several times along the way, so it was delayed for several hours."
Looking at Father Shen who had been staring at her, Shen Xiaoxia asked, "You won't be waiting forever, will you?"
Hearing what Shen Xiaoxia said, Shen's father hurriedly shook his head and reached out to take the luggage from Shen Xiaoxia's hand. The action was very natural, as if it was an instinct. Then he said, "No, no, I came once when the train was about to arrive. I heard that the train was delayed, so I went back to sleep."
Shen Xiaoxia raised an eyebrow, knowing that he probably hadn't slept for long. When she spoke again, there was a puzzlement in her eyes, "How did you know I would come back today?"
Father Shen didn't mention that he would come over to wait for the train when it arrived at the station these days. He just smiled and said casually, "The date you mentioned in your last letter was almost one of these two days, so I came to see you. It's just a coincidence..."
Shen Xiaoxia nodded and believed what her father said. Although her father was her nominal father and she had all the memories of her original body, there was still a layer of separation between them.
Facing him now, she didn't know how to communicate. She couldn't act like a spoiled child. She could only straighten her expression, try to make her tone sound more natural, and said, "Then, Dad, let's go back?"
Upon hearing this, Mr. Shen nodded immediately, his eyes full of joy, "Okay, let's go home!"
As she walked, looking at Father Shen beside her, Shen Xiaoxia suddenly thought, "Don't I have to go to work today? Wouldn't it be too late for you to come pick me up?"
Father Shen tilted his head slightly and took a closer look at Shen Xiaoxia's appearance. He couldn't help but feel a pang of bitterness in his heart, mixed with a hint of relief. "It's not too late. I'll go to work after I take you back!"
