483: I ran into Hu Ping and her friends on the train.

During the New Year, she called Captain Chen and Political Commissar to wish them a Happy New Year. They told her to take another fifteen days of leave, and after fifteen days, she must return to the team.

Training would begin after fifteen days.

Xiao Niannian naturally agreed.

The letter of introduction she held was from the Arms Factory.

Lying on the middle bunk, Xiao Niannian listened to the people around her talking.

"It's so cold, can't we stay a few more days? If we go back now, there's no work in the village."

"We only asked for twenty days of leave. The time is almost up. If we don't return to the Production Brigade by the scheduled time, there will be trouble..."

"I heard the Chengdu's food is very spicy. This business trip is a good opportunity to try the local specialties there."

"Be careful on the train..."

Xiao Niannian closed her eyes and slept for several hours.

She heard footsteps approaching; there were three people.

"Our seats are here."

Listening to the voice, it sounded a bit familiar. It turned out to be Hu Ping and her companions. This world was truly too small.

"Pingping, I can't believe we're being transferred to the Chengdu..."

"The three of us can stay together from now on."

"I heard the conditions in the Chengdu aren't as good as in Yangcheng."

Hu Ping and her companions?

Xiao Niannian was a bit surprised. For more than a year, she had been running between the school, the Arms Factory, and a few other places, and had also gone on several missions.

She didn't plan to pay attention to them and continued to lie down.

"Pingping, you received a third-class merit this time. You are truly outstanding. When you get to the Chengdu, if you get another third-class merit, you might even get promoted to an officer."

"Speaking of merits, I thought of Xiao Niannian again. Didn't she receive a merit before? Someone said she went to a Military Academy to study, I wonder if it's true?"

"How could that be? How could someone like Xiao Niannian go to a Military Academy to study?"

"It must be fake."

Hu Ping heard their discussion and said with a smile.

"I heard about this too, I don't know if it's true or false."

Yang Fang scoffed.

"It must be fake. Besides her good martial arts skills, how can Xiao Niannian compare to you, Pingping?"

"Xiao Niannian can't even compare to us, she's even further behind you, Pingping."

Zhu Dan said with a cold laugh.

"How can Xiao Niannian compare to Pingping?"

Xiao Niannian listened to their complaints, curled her lips, and fell asleep again.

After a while, she heard two men talking.

"Our seats are right here."

Hu Ping and her companions were sitting on the lower bunk, talking and sharing snacks.

Seeing two somewhat sturdy men approach, their brows furrowed. The way these two men looked at them seemed ill-intentioned.

"You're wearing military uniforms, are you Soldiers?"

Hearing one of the men's words, Yang Fang raised her chin and said with a forceful demeanor.

"Yes, what about it?"

Both men laughed.

"We rarely see female Soldiers."

Hu Ping and Yang Fang said nothing. The two men saw this, stood there, and said.

"This lower bunk is mine."

He Juan immediately got up; hers was an upper bunk.

He Juan climbed to the upper bunk and looked down.

Hu Ping and Yang Fang were sitting there now, and the two men were also looking at them.

Hu Ping was very unhappy. The men's gazes were lewd. Thinking of some things she had heard before, her face became even uglier.

Yang Fang also felt that these two men had ill intentions.

"Pingping, your Fiancé is a Company Commander?"

"What Fiancé? It's just what my parents and his parents want. I haven't agreed yet."

Mentioning her Fiancé, Hu Ping's face flushed slightly.

Her Fiancé was from the Chengdu. This time, they were just being transferred to the Chengdu, so maybe there would be a chance to be with her Fiancé. Although she said she hadn't agreed, they would submit a report when they returned this time.

Hearing this, the two men exchanged glances, and their eyes turned to Yang Fang again.

Then someone's gaze fell on Xiao Niannian again.

Xiao Niannian was covered by a quilt, her face turned inwards. Her hair was very short, so they couldn't tell if she was male or female at the moment. The military overcoat covering Xiao Niannian surprised them. Was this a military overcoat? Why did it look unfamiliar? They then retracted their gaze.

Xiao Niannian had eaten before getting on the train, so she wasn't hungry. She planned to sleep a little longer and get up to eat around seven or eight in the evening. Anyway, she had plenty of steamed buns and Beijing roast duck in her spatial dimension... The food that entered her spatial dimension was like it had been preserved; no matter how long it was kept, there was no change.

Xiao Niannian fell asleep again.

"Ah, what are you doing?"

Yang Fang exclaimed, glaring at the man opposite her.

"Sorry, my leg was a bit numb."

Yang Fang was very angry after hearing this. These two men were really suspicious. Were they trying to act like hooligans?

Thinking of this, she glared at them fiercely.

Hu Ping's face was a bit pale; she dared not sleep now.

Otherwise, should she and Yang Fang or He Juan go to sleep?

But she was extremely unwilling to give this bed to these two men.

How about exchanging with the man on the middle bunk opposite?

After they got on the train, several hours had passed, and that man had been sleeping the whole time, completely ignoring what was happening in the carriage.

But now that he was asleep, if she disturbed him, would he pay attention to her?

Moreover, this person didn't look strong. Would he help them?

Now the man opposite dared to stretch out his foot and touch theirs. Who knew what would happen if they fell asleep later?

Yang Fang was also a little scared now, her hands tightly clenched into fists.

She wanted to leave and sleep on the upper bunk, but if she left, what about Pingping? Pingping was still holding her, so she definitely couldn't leave. Otherwise, should they just sit like this? If these two dared to do anything, she would shout loudly to attract the Railway Police Officer and the train attendant... Thinking of this, she gripped Hu Ping's hand.

"Pingping, let's eat something, Xiaojuan."

He Juan immediately responded from the upper bunk.

"Okay."

He Juan came down, and Hu Ping took out the packed lunchbox from her bag.

"The food is still a bit warm, no need to heat it up."

"Let's eat first."

"The food at this State-run Restaurant tastes really good."

Hearing the three of them sitting in a row, holding lunchboxes and eating, the two men sat opposite, their eyes occasionally looking at them.

Hu Ping felt a bit displeased. She wanted to scold them but held back.

Hu Ping felt that this meal took too long; she had never eaten so slowly before.

If only they had other Comrades-in-arms on the train, they wouldn't have to be afraid of these two men.

"Where did you buy this food?"

The man opposite spoke. "It smells so good! Do you have any more? We'll pay, can you sell us a portion?"

"It smells so good! Do you have any more? We'll pay, can you sell us a portion?"

"No."

Hu Ping immediately refused.

Hearing this, the two men looked at Hu Ping and laughed.

"Then we'll trade you with meat pies."
