Si Wuxie kept his head down throughout the bus ride and finally found a seat by the window.
Xiang Baobei sat next to Si Wuxie, taking the aisle seat.
Just a few months ago, Xiang Baobei never would have imagined she and Si Wuxie would reach this point!
Now, although they sat together, it felt as if there was a vast distance between them.
Xiang Baobei clearly had so much she wanted to say, so many questions to ask.
But Si Wuxie seemed like a completely different person, as silent as ice.
Helplessly, she had to swallow all the words she wanted to say.
Once the bus was almost full, it set off in the direction of Donghu Village.
To Xiang Baobei's surprise, where there was once only a rugged mountain road leading to Donghu Village, it had transformed into a cement road complete with two lanes in just a few short months away!
Flower beds had been built on both sides of the road, though still under construction and not yet completed.
