Chapter 6 Women only affect the speed of drawing the sword
Tan Lei is quite talkative nowadays, perhaps because Cao Sheng was her classmate in high school and now they are university alumni, she treats Cao Sheng very close to her. Even though they had never spoken to each other in high school, when they met by chance at the train station today, she could still chat with him as an old friend.

She first asked Cao Sheng how he spent the New Year and whether he had a reunion with his high school classmates.

Cao Sheng shook his head and said no.

She talked enthusiastically about this New Year, how she had a reunion with two female high school classmates, where they had hotpot, and talked about the current situation of some of her classmates.

We kept chatting until the staff at the ticket window of the train station came to work.

Seeing other passengers in the waiting hall coming forward to buy tickets, she and Cao Sheng went to queue up to buy tickets.

When queuing, she deliberately stood in front of Cao Sheng.

Cao Sheng stood behind her, looking closely at her fair neck and the fine hairs on her neck, and couldn't help but have some impure thoughts in his mind.

A thought flashed through my mind: Should I try to pursue her?
The thought only flashed through his mind for a moment before he suppressed it.

It’s not that he has no interest in Tan Lei.

To be honest, he is interested in every beautiful woman.

But now, he wants to build a career and make money.

He has long passed the stage where his mind is full of women.

It is very clear that as long as you have money, you can be destined to be with anyone. If you don’t have money, it will be difficult to keep the relationship even if you are together now.

Therefore, at present, he will stay away from anyone and anything that will affect his sword-drawing speed.

That is why, even though he had some thoughts about Tan Lei in his mind, he did not want to take any action for the time being.

I just want to publish my recently written new book online as soon as possible, and then find a way to make some money to improve my life.

only……

Tan Lei is really enthusiastic.

She stood in line in front of Cao Sheng. When it was her turn to buy a ticket, she actually turned around to ask Cao Sheng for his student ID, saying that she wanted to buy the ticket for Cao Sheng.

If you use your student ID card, you can buy tickets at half price.

Cao Sheng didn't think much about it. He took out his student ID and twenty yuan and handed them to her, thinking that she just wanted to help him with the ticket purchasing procedures.

Unexpectedly, she just smiled and only took his student ID card, without accepting the money he handed over.

She's going to pay for my ticket?

Cao Sheng was very surprised.

But he didn't argue with her, nor did he rush to pay.

He waited until she bought the ticket, and when he saw the two tickets in her hand, he left the line with her and sat back down at his previous seat.

"I'll pay for my ticket myself!"

Cao Sheng handed the twenty-dollar note in his hand back to her.

Although he had the idea of ​​living off a woman on the way to the county town today, Tan Lei didn't look like a particularly wealthy second-generation. The most important thing was that he still had psychological barriers to living off a woman.

"No need! I'm treating you!"

Tan Lei looked at the money in his hand with amusement, raised her hand to push his hand back, and handed him a ticket. "If you feel embarrassed, then wait until we get to school and you can treat me to a meal! Speaking of which, we have been classmates for so long, but we haven't had a meal together yet! How about today?"

Cao Sheng looked into her smiling eyes and couldn't tell whether she was using this method to ask him out for dinner.

But what she said does make sense. They were in the same class in high school and went to the same university, but they have never had a meal together alone. It's a bit unreasonable.

He nodded, "Okay! It's my pleasure."

Tan Lei smiled.

The two chatted for a while, and the train they were waiting for rumbled into the station.

They immediately stood up and lined up for ticket checking.

This is a green train.

The kind that stops at every small stop along the way.

The normal running speed is not fast. It is very tiring to take this kind of train. It is only a distance of more than 100 kilometers, but it takes four or five hours, and sometimes it will be late.

After getting on the bus, Tan Lei unceremoniously asked Cao Sheng to help her lift the suitcase onto the luggage rack.

After sitting down, she enthusiastically invited Cao Sheng to eat melon seeds and peanuts.

Their seats were next to each other, she sat by the window and Cao Sheng sat next to her, and there was a middle-aged man next to Cao Sheng.

The three of them were squeezed together and couldn't even keep any distance from each other.

Cao Sheng's hips were pressed against Tan Lei's hips, and he could even feel the shape of her hips. Tan Lei didn't mind and continued to chat and laugh with him.

Looks like he's in a good mood.

However, no matter how many topics there are to talk about, there will be an end to them. After an hour or two, the carriage gradually became quiet, and many people leaned back in their seats with their eyes closed, drowsily resting.

The same is true for Tan Lei.

Cao Sheng squinted his eyes and looked at the slowly passing scenery outside the window. He felt a little touched. He hadn't ridden on this green train for more than 20 years.

He had never taken a train on this route since he graduated from college.

The scenery along the way that I once got tired of seeing, now seems so familiar to me when I see it again today.

"What are you thinking?"

Suddenly, Tan Lei's soft voice came from beside me.

Cao Sheng came back to his senses and turned his head to look at her. Only then did he realize that she had opened her eyes again after closing them to rest and was now looking at him curiously.

He smiled slightly and replied in a low voice: "Nothing, just distracted."

Tan Lei smiled.

She blinked, leaned slightly towards Cao Sheng, put her mouth close to his ear and whispered, "Hey, can I ask you a question?"

Cao Sheng burst out laughing.

I thought to myself: Now that you ask me this, how can I say no?
"What?" he asked.

Tan Lei: "Well, there were so many girls in our class before, who was your favorite?"

When he heard this question, a sweet smile flashed through Cao Sheng's mind involuntarily.

That was a girl he had a crush on in high school.

But how could he possibly tell Tan Lei this secret deep in his heart?

So, he looked at Tan Lei with a smile in his eyes and asked in a low voice: "Guess?"

Tan Lei looked at him for a few seconds, shook her head, sat up straight, and sighed, "I can't guess! But it seems that it's definitely not me. Hey! Do you know? Several girls in our dormitory have talked about you in private before."

Cao Sheng: "What are you talking about me?"

Tan Lei looked at him and said with emotion: "You are handsome! As far as I know, there were several girls in our class who liked you back then. Don't you know?"

Cao Sheng: “…”

Cao Sheng did not answer this question, but just smiled faintly.

In fact, he knew.

When he was in high school, someone slipped a love letter into his Chinese textbook, and he accidentally saw several girls' letters when they occasionally glanced at him secretly.

This was also the reason why when he first traveled back through time a few years ago, he looked at his face in the mirror and felt that this was the face that could make girls fall in love with him.

Since junior high school, he has received more than one love letter.

But time is a butcher's knife. In the original time and space, when he was no longer young, he took the initiative to pursue women, but his success rate was not high.

This is also one of the main reasons why he doesn't want to fall in love for the time being and only wants to focus on his career and make money.

The truth is that he has long understood that youth and handsomeness will disappear in the blink of an eye. If he cannot stand up in his career before his youth and handsomeness disappear, his life will repeat the same mistakes.
