Su Nuo waved to Gu Chenglan through the car window. I also saw Gu Chenglan smiling and waving goodbye to her.
It wasn't until the train slowly started to start and Gu Chenglan on the platform was getting further and further away that Su Nuo breathed a sigh of relief.
She originally thought that Gu Chenglan would get in the car at the end. Now it seems he didn't.
Sunuo felt a little empty in her heart, but she felt relieved.
"Xiao Nuo, thank you." Cousin Min Yanchun said softly from behind.
"It doesn't matter. I'm fairly familiar with Beihua." Su Nuo smiled and sat down, holding her cousin's hand: "You don't seem so happy?"
In fact, Su Nuo knew what Min Yanchun was thinking. Because until they got on the train, they didn't see Yang Si'er coming to see them off.
Su Nuo never asked Min Yanchun what he told Yang Si'er, but the fact that the two did not meet in the end seemed to mean something.
"Xiao Nuo, why don't you seem worried about anything?" Min Yanchun put his hands on the small table and turned to look out the window.
Sunuo didn't know how to answer. If it weren't for his rebirth, Sunuo wouldn't have had such courage back then.
"Cousin, it's actually good for you to do this. At least you've taken the first step, and everything will be better." Suno took out their water glasses from their backpack, went to get hot water and came back.
The train to Beihua takes more than eight hours, and Sunuo and the others bought sleeper tickets. Sleep one night and be there the next morning.
It was getting darker and darker, and there was no view outside the car window, but Min Yanchun still sat still.
The people in the upper and middle berths had already gone to sleep. Su Nuo lay down on the lower berth opposite and looked at Min Yanchun from the shadow of the car window, only to find that there were tears in her eyes.
"Cousin?" Su Nuo's voice was very low, as he was afraid of disturbing the rest of the people above.
"Yes." Min Yanchun responded, with a hint of sobs in his voice.
Su Nuo immediately sat up from the bunk, moved to Min Yanchun's side, and gently held her shoulders: "If you can't bear it, can we go back?"
"No, it's over. I'm fine." Min Yanchun answered simply, but also with deep sadness.
Su Nuo understood that Min Yanchun's departure heralded the end of a relationship before it even began.
"He doesn't want to wait for you?" Suno asked in surprise.
Min Yanchun nodded: "He doesn't want me to leave. If I stay, he is willing to wait for me. But when he said he left, the changes were too big."
Sunuo was speechless.
She thought that Yang Si'er had real feelings and was serious about her cousin, but she didn't expect that the final result would be like this.
"Maybe... he's right." Min Yanchun seemed to be talking to himself: "No one knows what will happen after we break up. Maybe he changes his mind first, or maybe I will soon fall in love with someone else."
After Min Yanchun finished speaking, he pressed his sore eyes, sighed, then turned to Suno and said, "It's okay. It'll be fine as soon as we get off the bus tomorrow. Really."
Suno nodded and sat back on his bunk.
The train ran at a constant speed, taking Min Yanchun farther away, but it also left her first love behind.
Sunuo didn't know when she fell asleep. She didn't wake up until she heard the conductor announcing the station.
Cousin Min Yanchun was still opposite, staring at the floor of the upper bunk with her eyes open. She didn't know if she hadn't slept all night or if she was already awake.
"It's too late to wash up." Suno quickly sat up and combed his hair: "Let's pack our things and get out of the car first."
