Chapter 1515: A Meeting a Thousand Miles Away 2

"Oh, so you've gotten bold, haven't you? You won't tell me about your private affairs; is it because you like another girl..."

"Don't talk nonsense."

"I am talking nonsense, who told you not to tell me?"

The two of them chatted sweetly for a while, when suddenly the airport broadcast sounded: "Dear passengers, hello, the flight from University City to Songluo is about to take off..."

"Bye-bye, I can't talk to you anymore, I have something to do here!" Litian immediately covered the receiver.

But he quickly realized that by doing this, it seemed Feifei wouldn't be able to hear what he had just said either.

Lu Feifei asked on the phone: "Litian, where are you? Why does it sound like you're at an airport?"

"No, I'm watching TV," he lied.

Litian was not good at lying; his face turned red when he lied, but fortunately, his skin was dark, so the blushing wasn't easily noticed, and it didn't matter if others saw it, as long as his girlfriend couldn't see.

Boarding time had arrived.

Litian prepared to hang up: "Alright Feifei, I have something to do here, I'm hanging up first."

"Why do you always have things to do? Chat with me for a while."

Lu Feifei was like every girl in the heat of a new romance, very clingy.

He wanted to chat too, but he couldn't anymore; he had to board the plane immediately!

"Be good, listen to me, the military has an urgent matter for me."

"Alright, then you hang up first."

Matters involving the military were definitely serious business; Lu Feifei was not an unreasonable girl, and serious matters came first, so even if she was reluctant, she wouldn't pester him.

That day, after hanging up the phone and boarding the plane, he found his seat and sat down, closing his eyes to rest.

He originally wanted to sleep for a while, but he was too excited and couldn't fall asleep no matter what; his mind was full of his girlfriend's voice and smile, and his heart felt incredibly sweet!

The journey of over two hours felt as long as a century to him.

This road is so long, why aren't we there yet?

After checking his watch for the Nth time, the broadcast finally played, asking everyone to fasten their seatbelts as the plane was about to land.

... Songluo Airport.

Litian walked out of the airport and was dumbfounded.

If not for the four large characters "Songluo Airport" before his eyes, he wouldn't have believed this was a civilian airport at all!

What is going on?

Is the yellow ox walking slowly in front of him for real?

It wasn't just cows, there were sheep too!

Even pigs were strutting across the airport.

He looked back at the terminal building... it couldn't be called a terminal building, at most a waiting room.

It was the most crude waiting area he had ever seen, not even as good as the waiting room at a bus station.

Just then, the ride-hailing car arrived as scheduled, and Litian was dumbfounded once again—holy cow, it's a tractor.

"Are you Sheng Litian?" The man driving the tractor was in his forties, his skin even darker than Litian's.

"It's me, are you Master Huang?"

"That's right, it's me, get in!"

No mistake there.

If Litian had any other choice, he wouldn't have gotten in; the tractor was too slow.

But it seemed he had no choice.

Master Huang said his vehicle was the most luxurious ride-hailing car around here.

If you don't believe it, go ask around all of Songluo; if there's one faster and more comfortable than his, he'll write his surname backward!

Litian jumped into the back of the tractor; his time was precious and he couldn't afford to delay.

The tractor started moving; it was fine at first, but it soon picked up speed, and the tractor began to bump violently.

"Good heavens, why is it so bumpy?"

Litian felt like his internal organs were about to be shaken out.

"Master, stop the car."

The sound of the tractor was too loud, and Master Huang didn't hear him.

Litian raised his voice and shouted: "Stop the car, Master, stop the car."

This time he was heard, and the master stopped: "What's wrong?"

He didn't have time to answer, jumped off the car, and vomited wildly.

Everything he had eaten on the plane was thrown up.

"It's alright, young man, you'll get used to it; you're just not accustomed to it yet."

After vomiting, his internal organs felt much more comfortable, and since there was still a long way to go, the tractor continued to bounce along forward.

It was dark, the air in the countryside at night was especially good, and a full moon hung in the sky, bright and clear.

Frogs by the fields were croaking, a breeze gently brushed his face, and his mood was exceptionally relaxed!

He asked the master when they would arrive.

"We'll be there by daybreak."

"Daybreak... doesn't that mean we have to travel all night?"

"That's right," the master said with a chuckle, "If it weren't for the high price you offered, I wouldn't have taken this job; it's too far."

Litian asked: "Other people who drive ride-hailing cars all drive comfortable vehicles, why do you drive a tractor?"

"Tractors are great, they can be used day and night; farming during the day and running jobs at night, killing two birds with one stone. This is what we call resting the person but not the vehicle..."

Master Huang was very talkative and asked Litian what he was going to Phoenix Town to do.

Litian told the truth, saying he was going to see his girlfriend.

"Ah, you are a truly reliable boyfriend; whichever girl marries you will be truly blessed..."

"It's such a pity that you already have a girlfriend. I was just thinking of introducing you to my sister-in-law's aunt's second daughter. That girl is so beautiful, and she's tall, so she would be a perfect match for you..."

With the talkative Master Huang along the way, although the road was bumpy, it didn't seem too difficult.

By the second half of the night, Master Huang's words gradually decreased, and he kept yawning.

Litian said to him, "You go to the back and rest for a while, let me drive for a bit."

You just have to follow the road to the end; apart from the bumps, there were no other problems.

"That would be great." Master Huang did not stand on ceremony. The two swapped seats, and soon, thunderous snoring came from the bumpy vehicle!

When people are extremely tired, they can fall asleep in any environment.

When the sky was just beginning to brighten, Master Huang woke up, and Phoenix Town had finally arrived!

Seeing her boyfriend, who looked travel-worn, Lu Feifei simply couldn't believe her eyes. She blinked hard, confirming once again that it was indeed Litian who had come.

Only then did she happily run over to him.

"It's actually you, why is it you, how did you come here?"

At first she laughed, then she cried, and then she was both crying and laughing.

"Don't cry. I just wanted to give you a surprise, aren't you happy?"

"Mm, happy, especially happy." She nodded her head like a chick pecking at rice.

Lu Feifei took a day off to accompany her boyfriend around the streets.

Everyone they met along the way took the initiative to greet the two of them.

"Teacher Lu, who is this?"

"My boyfriend," Lu Feifei replied generously.

"Teacher Lu, your boyfriend is really handsome."

"A talented man and a beautiful woman, you two are a perfect match."

"Teacher Lu, why don't you just stay in our village? Is your boyfriend also a university student? You two could teach here together..."

The villagers were enthusiastic, which Litian wasn't very used to.

But it felt very good.

He could feel everyone's goodwill.

At noon, the two ate at a restaurant in town.

Lamb offal soup with soaked flatbread.

The flatbread was larger than a face, thick and hard, with a unique wheat aroma and a very chewy texture.

The lamb soup was rich; the milky white broth was more than half full of meat, topped with snow-white scallions and emerald-green cilantro, then splashed with a spoonful of thick chili oil—it was very satisfying to eat.
