Chapter 641 The Times Are Developing Too Fast
Su Xing discovered that with He Xu's humanoid pillow by her side, she slept very well for the past two nights, both times exceeding the basic duration of the deep sleep buff of 2 hours.
He Xu was in a state of torment. He didn't sleep much in the first half of the night. He fell asleep in the second half, but he kept dreaming.
Dreams that he was reluctant to wake up from...
early morning.
Su Xing woke up in high spirits.
He Xu took another shower, both to clean himself and to force himself to turn on the computer.
He came out of the bathroom and saw Su Xing snickering. He couldn't help but reach out and scratch her nose, "Little rascal~"
Su Xing tiptoed and blew into his ear, "Then you don't like me being 'bad' to you?"
"...Cough." He Xu cleared his throat and said honestly, "I like it..."
Su Xing smiled with her eyes curved, and kissed him on the cheek.
He Xu quickly said, "I'll go across the street to change clothes."
Then he quickly left Su Xing's room.
Su Xing looked at the closed door and smiled like a cat that had stolen fish.
The two packed up, went to the restaurant to have breakfast, then checked out and rushed to the high-speed rail station.
When they arrived at the high-speed rail station, they waited in the waiting hall for more than ten minutes before the ticket checking began.
It is the peak period for school starts recently, and seats on many trains are very limited.
He Xu didn't get a business class ticket, so he bought two first class tickets.
Su Xing actually didn’t care. When she went out, she usually bought second-class tickets.
The two got in the car, and He Xu asked Su Xing to sit inside by the window while he put the luggage.
Su Xing sat down first naturally.
Along the way, He Xu was the one who carried most of the suitcases and other things.
Although she was stronger than He Xu, when they were together, there were some things she didn't need to compete with him for.
Not long after the two of them sat down, an elderly couple in their sixties or seventies came over, looked at the seats with their tickets for a while, and finally sat in the row in front of them.
Soon, the train started moving.
Su Xing discovered that the car had been driving for more than ten minutes, and the backrests of the two front seats had been at a 90-degree angle the entire time.
Su Xing thought for a moment, stood up, leaned forward, and asked softly, "Grandpa, grandma, hello, do you need help adjusting your seats?"
The two old men who were sitting upright turned around and looked at Su Xing in surprise.
The grandmother asked uncertainly: "Little girl, are you talking to us?"
"Yes." Su Xing smiled and repeated his words, "Grandpa and grandma, do you need me to adjust the back of your seats?"
The old man's face turned red, and he waved his hands repeatedly, "No, no, we can just sit like this."
He Xu also interrupted at this time: "It will be more comfortable to sit with the seat back down. Let me help you."
He stood up as he spoke.
Su Xing saw her boyfriend was going to go over to help. He was sitting in the aisle seat, which was more convenient than her, so she didn't move.
The grandparents in the front row felt a little awkward.
Grandma said embarrassedly: "If the backrest is put down, it will affect you, right?"
He Xu smiled and said, "No, the seats are spacious and it won't affect us."
Su Xing also said: "Grandpa and grandma, don't worry, the seat design of the high-speed rail is still very reasonable."
Even if it is a second-class seat, normal seat adjustment will generally not affect the people in the back row. What's more, the first-class seat has more space than the second-class seat.
The old couple no longer refused Su Xing and He Xu's kindness.
He Xu helped them adjust the seats and told them where the buttons were and how to adjust them back.
He also taught them how to step on the pedals and how to turn them over.
And how to take out the small table.
The small tables in many first-class seats are not on the backrests of the front seats, but in the armrests. They need to be pulled out and the folded area stretched out before they can be used properly.
The old couple really didn't know how the first-class seats were adjusted, so they watched He Xu's demonstration and learned very seriously, and then kept thanking him.
"Thank you, little girl and little boy."
"Yes, thank you, thank you."
He Xu smiled and said, "You're welcome, it's just a small matter."
Su Xing also said: "Grandpa and grandma, you're welcome."
He Xu sat back in his seat.
Su Xing gave him a thumbs up.
He Xu smiled back.
Some tourists nearby also cast friendly glances at the enthusiastic young couple.
The old couple in the front row turned around and chatted with them for a while.
The old man said, "Hey, our son bought the ticket for us. We are going to visit our youngest daughter, who is working in Beijing."
The old lady also said: "We said we would just take the ordinary train, but the children insisted on buying us this high-speed train, saying it was comfortable and fast."
He Xu smiled and said, "The high-speed rail will be faster. If you get there earlier, your children will be relieved."
Su Xing agreed, "Yes, this train only takes two and a half hours to get to Beijing. Grandpa and grandma, your daughter will be able to pick you up soon."
The old lady suddenly took out two washed apples from a plastic bag and stuffed them into the hands of the young couple.
Su Xing and He Xu couldn't refuse and accepted the apples.
The two looked at each other and smiled at each other.
At this moment, Su Xing suddenly heard the electronic sound of the system in his head.
[Congratulations to the host for completing the hidden mission: Provide all possible help to the elderly who are away from home, so that they can better integrate into this rapidly developing era. Reward: Three days of health value, affinity increased by 2%. ]
When Su Xing heard about the hidden mission reward, he was stunned for a moment.
She said in her heart: "I didn't do anything. It was He Xu who helped this old couple."
[It was the host who first showed kindness to the strange old man, thus influencing the people around you. ]
"That's it, thank you."
【Host, you should thank yourself. 】
It has been bound to Su Xing for so long, and watching her grow step by step, it feels quite fulfilled.
Su Xing took a bite of the ice fruit in his hand. It was so sweet.
She looked at He Xu beside her.
He Xu noticed his girlfriend's gaze, took out a tissue and wiped the juice from the corner of her lips.
Su Xing couldn't help laughing.
In fact, He Xu is a very empathetic person.
It's just that she noticed the problem with the seats of the elderly couple in the front row earlier than he did. If he had noticed it first, she believed he would have offered to help first.
Su Xing took another bite of the apple, puffing out his cheeks like a little hamster.
She is very willing to help some normal elderly people who are away from home. This era is developing too fast, so fast that some elderly people can hardly keep up with the pace.
Many things are becoming more and more convenient for young people, but for some older people, there are also many more inconveniences.
This is not just true for taking the high-speed rail, it applies to many other things.
In a few years, some elderly people may not know how to order when they want to eat at a restaurant.
She also has grandparents.
She hopes that one day, when her family is away from home and encounters difficulties, there will be kind people who will lend them a helping hand.
