Chapter 263: Chapter 263: Coincidental Encounter, Disdain Chapter 263: Chapter 263: Coincidental Encounter, Disdain Upon arrival at the train station, after checking in the luggage, they boarded the train and searched for seats to settle down.
Zhao Jianing watched the platform outside the window, unable to stop her tears from flowing, yet Luo Siyan and Luo Siyuan sitting opposite her didn’t even give her a glance, and this made Zhao Jianing even more choked up with anger.
When the Luo Family Brothers reached school age and their mother couldn’t take care of them anymore, they followed their grandparents. Later, when it was ti for middle school, their father was transferred to a chanical factory, so they returned ho to live with their parents.
But it was this so-called little sister sitting opposite them who ti and ti again made them take the bla, often causing their mother to scold them, and even a few tis, due to her ddling, led to them getting beaten by their father.
Afterward, they only maintained superficial relations; it was no wonder they couldn’t grow close to her, especially since she wasn’t even their biological sister.
The train rattled and clanked forward. Zhao Jianing, tired from crying, fell asleep, while the Luo Family Brothers grew more and more nervous as ti went by, uncertain about the scene that would unfold upon eting their biological sister.
When they arrived in Ji City and got off the train, it was already midnight. They collected their luggage, found a hotel, checked in, but actually, none of them slept well.
Zhao Jianing had no desire to return to the countryside, but now she had no other choice. Her household registration and school enrollnt had been transferred out by the Luo Family, and she had nowhere else to go if she didn’t return to the countryside, nor did she have the capability to live on her own.
She didn’t know what kind of life was waiting for her, so she lay awake all night, tossing and turning, looking down on her biological parents deep inside.
The Luo Family Brothers, on the other hand, were unsure whether their biological sister would be averse to them, and were also excited about the prospect of eting her, ending up tossing and turning until almost dawn until they fell into a confused sleep.
Today was Sunday, and Luo Qiao got up early to prepare for a trip back to the village. This month was close to the ti to deliver the goods to He Yujie, and she also needed to ditate in the deep mountains to urgently improve her Special Ability.
Because after October, the plants on the mountain would be preparing for winter, and if she continued to excessively extract essence from them to enhance her Special Ability, they would undoubtedly die.
Only if her Special Ability reached the Third Level could she do so things she wanted to do, such as extracting essence from plants. She could also try to treat Lu Yichen, but for now, her Special Ability had no other use besides accelerating growth.
After breakfast, Luo Qiao took her crossbody bag, locked the door, and made her way to the bus station. She bought a ticket at the ticket counter and then headed toward the parking area.
Just like before, she took a seat in the front passenger’s spot, took a pack of dried fruit out of her bag as a snack, and waited for the bus to depart.
Just as the bus started, soone shouted, “Please wait a mont.”
Luo Qiao turned her head and saw three people running towards the bus. A quick glance was all it took for a smile to appear on her face.
It seed that the trajectory had indeed changed. The Luo Family’s young lady, who had always had a smooth sailing life, was now running their way, looking disheveled with a large bag in tow. Luo Qiao didn’t recognize the two people following her, but judging by their looks, they must be her cheap older brothers.
The young lady of the Luo Family was indeed well-cared for. It was as if she had brought all her belongings with her, as if they were too afraid she would be wronged. Luo Qiao cast a disdainful glance and then turned her head, no longer paying attention.
The group placed their items on the engine hood of the coach, all of them breathing heavily. Luo Siyan said, “Comrade, three tickets to Chaoyang Commune.”
By the ti they boarded, there were no more seats left. The ticket seller handed them a few small stools and told them to sit in the central aisle, but Zhao Jianing was reluctant and remained standing there.
The back aisle was also filled with stuff, leaving only the front area open. She glanced ahead and saw two people sitting on the edge of the engine hood, but those seats were positioned sideways.
Moreover, they weren’t proper seats, just an exceptionally narrow wooden bench, which she didn’t really feel like sitting on. Looking further ahead, the only suitable place seed to be the front passenger’s seat.
The ticket seller said, “Please sit down quickly, or you won’t have anything to hold on to where you’re standing. The road we’re taking isn’t exactly smooth, so be careful not to fall.”
Zhao Jianing said, “Comrade, could you help switch seats? I get carsick and am afraid I might vomit on the bus.”
The ticket seller, sowhat impatiently, said, “The aisles are already jam-packed; who do you suggest you switch with?”
Zhao Jianing pointed to the front passenger seat, “Can she swap places with ?”
