She reclaimed her family property and broke off her engagement to go to the countryside.

Chapter 204 Arrival at the Frontier
The trip for two turned into a trip for three, and Liu Qingyu was quite excited.

First of all, I'll be seeing my parents soon.

Secondly, you can go out with your good friends.

The experience of taking the train is naturally unique, and she prepared a lot of delicious food in advance.

Needless to say, Ji Shuyin also bought cakes, pastries, candies, and jarred goods from the supply and marketing cooperative, as well as roast chicken, braised pig's trotters, and beef jerky that she fried herself.

There are also large apples and a local type of pear, which are commonly eaten in winter and are sold at the supply and marketing cooperative.

"Shuyin, try this one of mine."

As Liu Qingyu spoke, she handed her a fried dough twist.

Then, he gave another piece to Jiang Shi'an.

Jiang Shi'an was sitting opposite them; the two girls were sitting in the same row.

"Thank you!"

The man spoke slowly and deliberately, glancing at Ji Shuyin out of the corner of his eye before quickly leaving.

Did you two have a fight?

Upon hearing her say that, Ji Shuyin quickly looked over innocently.

No, why would you think that?

"I just felt that you two were acting strange today, you weren't talking much."

You two usually get along really well, but something's off today.

Something was definitely wrong. The main problem was what was said that night, which left Ji Shuyin unsure how to face that person.

To be able to go to the frontier with them, it must have taken a lot of effort to persuade the battalion commander.

But I don't want to talk about relationships, and even after I told him, he still insisted.

I felt it was inappropriate, but I didn't know how to deal with it.

"No, maybe I just got up too early this morning."

He made up a random excuse to try and get away with it, but Liu Qingyu was still a little suspicious.

"Jiang Shi'an, you tell me, did you make our Shuyin angry?"

Ji Shuyin wanted to appear nonchalant and denied the question.

To everyone's surprise, the person on the other end spoke up in a serious manner.

"Yes, I said something wrong a couple of days ago and upset her."

I know I was wrong, and I hope she's not angry.

Now, Liu Qingyu didn't know what to say. She felt that the matter between the two of them was not as simple as she had imagined.

"Oh dear, look at the two of you. You were best friends. What could be more important than this friendship?"

Don't overthink it. Let's go to the border region together now. When we get there, my parents will take us out for a good meal.

After saying that, he turned to look at Ji Shuyin.

"Now that we've already set off, let's all be happy! We'll be seeing our parents soon, which is wonderful!"

Ji Shuyin smiled in response, saying that she owed this opportunity to Liu Qingyu.

"Yes, you're right. We shouldn't let some trivial matters affect our friendship; it would be a loss!"

Hearing this, Jiang Shi'an could only sigh inwardly. He already knew that entering Ji Shuyin's heart was not an easy task.

Therefore, he accepts the result and is willing to continue to work towards it.

From the moment she found him at the chemical plant, their relationship was destined to be entangled.

The journey from Northeast China to the border region by train takes a day and a night, and the three of them were initially quite enthusiastic.

Watching the scenery outside the window change little by little is always very interesting.

But as time went on, I stopped thinking about it so much.

Trains in this era are not as comfortable as one might imagine.

Although all three of us had seats, sitting like this for so long was really taking a toll on our buttocks and backs.

The corridor was bustling with people, and the smell was unbearable—a cacophony of odors, the pungent stench was indescribable. Fortunately, all three were in good physical condition and young, so they quickly got through it.

It wasn't until the train stopped and I dragged my bags off the train that I finally felt better.

"My God, it's so cold, and the wind is so strong."

Whether the air is fresh or not is another matter, but it's actually colder than Northeast China, which is truly unbelievable.

"The temperature difference between day and night is quite large here. Let's go first and talk about it when we get outside."

Jiang Shi'an gave a reminder, and the three of them then walked out.

It's really not easy to keep an eye on what you're holding.

"Green jade, green jade..."

The shouts could be heard from a long distance away.

She was a woman in her forties, and there was a man next to her, who was about the same age.

Both were wearing thick woolen overcoats, and the man was wearing glasses.

"Mom, Dad!"

Liu Qingyu, who was standing next to her, became excited and waved while turning to look ahead.

Liu's mother covered her mouth, clearly having seen her daughter and unable to control her emotions.

The group arrived quickly, and the two hurried over to take their daughter's luggage.

"Mom, I miss you so much!"

Liu Qingyu hugged her mother, and both of them shed tears.

Ji Shuyin, standing next to her, was actually a little envious.

No matter how difficult it is, I must visit my parents this time.

"Alright, stop crying. You're a grown man, people will laugh at you."

Mr. Liu, standing beside him, was also deeply moved, finally seeing his youngest daughter.

Liu Qingyu realized what was happening and let go of her mother.

"Mom and Dad, let me introduce you. This is Ji Shuyin, my good friend."

This is Jiang Shi'an. We were both sent to work in the countryside together, and he came with me this time.

Actually, she had already mentioned this over the phone, and her parents were already aware of it.

"Okay, you're all good kids. Let's go home first."

I have to go home; it's just too cold outside.

The Liu family is temporarily staying in a staff quarters belonging to the hospital.

The houses inside are nice; although they're made of wood, they're very warm.

Liu's mother brewed butter tea for everyone and served it to them with great enthusiasm.

"I don't know if you'll like it, but there will be goat milk later, it'll be ready soon."

Every place has its own unique cuisine, and they are not picky eaters.

"It's delicious, Auntie. Don't bother, we're fine."

"How could it be nothing? You are my Qingyu's good friends, and you have traveled a long way to come here with me. I am so grateful that I must treat you well."

She was really worried about letting her daughter come alone, so it was perfect that she had someone to accompany her.

"It's all my pleasure, Auntie, please don't be so polite."

Looking at her, Liu's mother also showed a loving smile.

"Shuyin, right?"
Qingyu has told us everything about your family.

Her father is using his connections; if possible, he'll definitely want you to meet her family.

Yes, because of their immigration status, my parents can't meet people as they please.
