Reborn in 2000: I just want to love a few people properly.

There are only He Jun, He Yimei, and a young woman in the sleeper berth. The woman looks to be in her thirties, but it's unclear what she does.

He Jun and He Yimei simply greeted her and didn't chat much.

"Girl, are you hungry?"

"I'm a little hungry," He Yimei said, clutching her stomach with a wronged expression.

At the same time, he was secretly blaming Xu Bo.

"Why haven't you come to have dinner with me yet?"

Looking at the large bag full of food beside her, He Yimei felt a little annoyed.

"Come on, Dad will take you to the dining car for a bite to eat."

Upon hearing this, He Yimei first got out of bed, put on her shoes, and took two bags of bread that she had bought that morning. The bread was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, which was He Yimei's favorite.

I arrived at the train station late this morning because I was queuing to buy this.

"Let's invite Xu Bo too. Dad isn't that petty."

Seeing what the girl meant, He Jun sighed and said softly.

He Yimei pretended not to understand her father's words and took the lead in opening the sliding door and walking out.

He Jun could only shake his head helplessly from behind.

After crossing the swaying connecting area between the carriages, He Yimei arrived at carriage number four and successfully found Xu Bo, who was chatting with an old man.

"Uncle Wang, let me tell you, with your skills you'd be making a fortune in Hangzhou."

"The famous dish of Hangzhou, West Lake Vinegar Fish, is not good at all. They say it's a waste that the fish died."

"Young man, let me tell you this: when it comes to cooking, I won't talk about the taste, but first and foremost, I guarantee it will be clean!"

The two had drunk a little too much; Xu Bo's face was slightly flushed, like a ripe apple.

The old man's withered face suddenly flushed red, like a rough apple growing on the bark of an old tree.

"Hey Xu Bo, I was waiting for you to come and have dinner with me, but I didn't expect you to be drinking here first."

Just as the two were overjoyed, He Yimei's voice suddenly came from behind them.

Xu Bo was startled and quickly gave Old Wang a look before turning his head away.

"What brings you here, Yimei?"

"If I don't come to find you soon, I'm going to starve to death."

He Yimei said with her head held high and a cold face.

"I just woke up too. I thought you and Uncle He had already finished eating, so I didn't want to disturb you."

An older man on the upper bunk lowered his head and said, holding a tofu roll with scallions that Xu Bo had just handed him.

"That's right, young lady, this young man just woke up and just had a bite of something hot."

Xu Bo thanked heaven and earth, and thanked this elder brother.

Everyone says that doing a good deed every day will bring good fortune. Brother, I'd accept it even if you just call it doing a good deed.

Xu Bo wanted to quickly resolve the immediate trouble, so he looked at He Yimei and He Jun behind her and said.

"Uncle He, why don't you two eat something here?"

The food on the small table is meant to be snacks to accompany drinks. It's enough to fill your stomach and add some flavor, but it's probably not enough for a group of people who want to have a full meal.

"No need. It's my fault for not coming to see you. If you're hungry around 6 PM, come find me."

He Jun, unusually, said something nice to Xu Bo. He said that no one was to blame but everyone had too many concerns.

Xu Bo thought he and the girl had finished eating.

He Yimei was waiting for Xu Bo to come and have dinner with her father.

He Jun assumed the girl wasn't hungry, so he didn't rush to urge her to eat.

And so, He Yimei and He Jun walked in the opposite direction from the food truck until they reached it, where they ordered two bowls of rice with toppings and a stir-fry dish.

Xu Bo drank two ounces of baijiu, which is about the size of a small cup. After cleaning up the table, he and Grandpa Wang across from him collapsed together.

Before he became confused, Xu Bo made sure to tidy up all his belongings.

When you're out and about, it's not the thief you should be afraid of, but the one who's eyeing

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Xu Bo woke up slowly. The liquor was made from pure grains and he didn't have a headache after drinking it.

Grandpa Wang across from us has had quite a bit to drink and hasn't woken up yet, but he has one good point: he doesn't snore when he sleeps.

I took out the "Computer Organization and Architecture" textbook that I hadn't finished reading this morning and read it again.

Xu Bo quickly understood the remaining knowledge points, put away the thick book, took out his phone, and called his mother.

"Where are we?" Mom asked directly.

"We haven't even left Liaoning Province yet, and we've already stopped at each station for quite a while."

"What did you have for lunch?" Mom was very concerned about Xu Bo and called Xu Tianchao over to talk to her son on the other end of the phone.

"Mom, I've only been gone a short while, not even a day yet. I'll go back to you when I get there, the signal is bad right now."

The family chatted on the phone about all sorts of trivial things, which annoyed Xu Bo. He said he'd rather have something serious to say, but it was all just mundane little things.

However, his parents didn't know that Xu Bo was a reincarnated person and still treated him like a child.

Fortunately, the phone call killed off a lot of Xu Bo's time. When he hung up, he saw that it was five o'clock.

After standing up and walking around the carriage for a while to ease his stiffness, Xu Bo went to the dining car.

"What can we still do now?" Xu Bo asked, looking at the small menu.

"We can do that," the staff member replied simply, his eyes fixed on the view outside the window, looking at the scenery he was already tired of seeing, and said softly.

"Then give me an eggplant rice bowl and a Kung Pao chicken rice bowl."

"Take it to go."

These two meals were not for Xu Bo to eat alone, but to take back to Old Wang next to him and the uncle in the bunk above him.

Firstly, it was to repay the kindness of the snacks served with drinks, and secondly, it was to repay the uncle in the upper bunk for helping him out of a difficult situation.

After paying, Xu Bo sat down and looked at the scenery outside.

The dilapidated rural walls and vast plains outside highlight the immensity of Northeast China.

But who could have imagined that a few years later, one high-rise building after another would be built here?

People will have more options when it comes to travel, and the scenery outside is still clearly visible.

But when high-speed rail comes along, the scenery will flash by as quickly as fireworks, and distance will no longer be a problem.

People will tap randomly on their phones, and then at the next stop, someone will bring them fresh and delicious food.

Back then, people rarely communicated face-to-face. Instead, they would talk about the weather with friends far away via electronic signals through screens.

"Times are changing, and all boats are racing. Can I ride the wave this time and stand at the forefront of the times?"

Not long after, the food was ready, and Xu Bo took it back to carriage number four.

Grandpa Wang has woken up, and his stomach has started rumbling.

"Uncle Wang, Uncle Zhong, remember to eat the things I bought for you later."

Xu Bo called the two of them to the table.

It's 5:30. Eating at this time is a bit early, but it's not a big deal. Old Wang still has some peanuts and snacks to go with his drinks, so we can have a late-night snack if we're hungry.

"I can't accept this, it must have cost a lot of money, young man."

Zhong Weiyong is a shop owner who runs a small business in the Shanghai farmers' market. His trip to Hangzhou was purely to visit a relative.

"Yes, kid, why did you waste this money?" Old Wang also felt a little sorry for him.

"It's alright. When we get to Hangzhou, we might have to trouble you again, so this is just me building up some goodwill in advance."

Some things were said half-seriously and half-jokingly.
