On the train, the scenery on either side of the tracks rapidly retreated through the window.
He Tiantian sat on the bunk with Huo Yingjie, looking at the trees outside and whispering to each other.
What a coincidence that He Tiantian ran into Zhang Runan, who was attending the labor conference.
"Auntie Zhang, I didn't expect to run into you again here," He Tiantian said when she went out to use the restroom and saw Zhang Runan in the next compartment.
Zhang Runan was also happy to see He Tiantian.
From strangers to acquaintances, their relationship had grown closer because of Niu Dajun and Qi Xiaoyan. Now, thanks to He Tiantian, they had found a long-lost elder who had been away from home for decades.
"Tiantian, did you get on the train in Nan City?" Zhang Runan asked, clasping He Tiantian's hand without letting go. "Oh, such a fine girl, why didn't she take a fancy to my son?"
Because of her son, Zhang Runan also knew He Tiantian's parents.
