Qiao Qingyu finished packing and called He Xiuyu to tell him she would be home in three days. He Xiuyu's voice carried a lightness and unmistakable joy, "I'll try to make time and have Rongrong and I pick you up at the station."
Qiao Qingyu wanted to say that he was too busy to trouble himself, but then thought that refusing his offer wouldn't be very sensible.
So, she nodded and responded, "Sure, I'll wait for you guys at the station."
He Xiuyu hummed softly, instructing her to be careful on the road and not to bring too much stuff. He reminded her to carry her introductory letter to switch trains and approach the stationmaster to buy a sleeper ticket...
"Alright, I know all this. You go on with your work; I need to finish packing."
Though Qiao Qingyu sounded slightly impatient, a smile adorned her face.
She decisively hung up the call.
On the other end, He Xiuyu held the receiver for a moment before finally placing it back on the phone.
