Chapter 566: Chapter 565: Distance (3)

Whether she was genuinely naive or just thick-skinned, the important thing was the show could go on smoothly, and it even continued in such a comedic manner. Both the guests and the production team breathed a sigh of relief.

Qin Baizhou hesitated, wanting to help her negotiate better conditions, but Xia Siyu sabotaged herself.

However, this was a variety show, and her unconventional approach might actually endear her to the audience, resulting in a top-notch program. Since the production team was prepared to set her up, he would do his best to ensure they edited it well, highlighting her strengths. If she got set up, so be it; as long as she found it fun, that was all that mattered.

But it wasn’t during the summer or winter holidays, nor was it the peak time for returning home. Especially on these kinds of green trains, many people would c hoose high-speed rail over this mode of transportation. Even if they did choose it, they would prefer a sleeper berth if possible.

Although the show’s crew members who followed onto the train were few, they were aiming to create an atmosphere of mingling with the general public, using hidden cameras for filming. But they didn’t dare to boldly throw Xia Siyu into a crowd of strangers.

But Xia Siyu was not the least bit flustered. Just as she did the last time she went out with Bo Yan, she repeated the old trick — wearing a tracksuit, a baseball cap, and then putting on a mask; no one paid her any attention. And so, she boarded the train openly, finding her seat with pomp.

Speaking of which, Xia Siyu had never ridden on this kind of green train before. Her family was well-off, and she traveled by high-speed rail and plane, usually in first class. She really had very few experiences of being squeezed in with a crowd of people.

Moreover, she boarded the train at eleven o’clock at night, at which point many people on the train were already asleep. With the lights dimmed in the carriage, once asleep, no one would care who was sitting next to them.

Although high-speed rail had become widespread, there were still quite a few passengers on these green trains. Particularly some farmers and laborers, toting woven sacks or carrying large bags on their backs. There were also mothers holding babies a few months old; the babies, not yet asleep, gazed around with curious big eyes.

But Xia Siyu was dressed in a tracksuit, while Qin Baizhou was wearing casual clothes, his stiff fabric clearly expensive, making him stand out from his surroundings.

The smell in the carriage wasn’t very pleasant, and people often passed through the corridor. Worried about someone bumping into her, Qin Baizhou offered proactively, “I’ll sit a bit further out.”

Xia Siyu naturally disagreed. She sat on the outside precisely to observe the crowd. If Qin Baizhou blocked her view, how could she continue observing?

Qin Baizhou had no choice but to sit down. Seeing Xia Siyu curiously looking around, he explained, “I used to take these seats quite often. Back when I was in university, there were no high-speed trains, only fast trains, and those tickets were very expensive and hard to come by at the time. During my student days, I often took these hard seats, because I could get them at half price. During the Spring Festival rush, it was jam-packed, even the corridors and washrooms were full. It was dirty, smelled bad, and even using the bathroom was inconvenient. Once, I didn’t manage to get a seat ticket and had to stand for over ten hours, it was like a nightmare.”

Although he didn’t state it explicitly, it was obvious that he had a disdain for that lower-class life, his tone filled with a sense of superiority about his current comfortable surroundings.

If it weren’t for the show’s requirements, he probably would never want to touch this kind of life ever again.
