Chapter 337

337 Perform Well

Yao Nian booked an ox cart and personally sent Yu Yan to the bus station. As he helped her carry her luggage, he secretly hoped that Yu Yan would mention him when she returned home.

After Yu Yan took the bus to City H and arrived at City H’s bus station at noon, she bought a train ticket from City H to Hang City at six that night.

To save money, Yu Yan could only book the most ordinary green train, which had hard seats.

After confirming the train number and departure time, Yu Yan called the cotton mill’s family courtyard from the phone window at the train station. According to the method of contact she had agreed upon with Duan Mei in the letter, Yu Yan told Duan Mei about her arrival in the name of Duan Mei’s distant relative.

!!

At this time, the arrival schedule for green trains was almost always late at night. Yu Yan only arrived at the train station at ten o’clock on the third night.

When Yu Yan went to the countryside last year, she was only carrying a small piece of luggage. Her adoptive parents would send the things through the post office or give her money to buy them locally. She had never carried so many bags around before. This time, she was exhausted!

However, when the car arrived at the station, Yu Yan perked up again. She had only seen her biological mother, but had never seen her biological father, sister, and brother before!

Full of anticipation, Yu Yan carried the sack and the pieces of luggage off the train. Then, she looked around the platform.

“Yu Yan.”

Yu Yan looked in the direction of the voice and saw Duan Mei, who was waving at her with a smile. Beside her, there stood a middle-aged man with a shaved head who was a head taller than her. Yu Yan knew that he was her father!

Although her father didn’t have a smile on his face, Yu Yan felt that she could sense the man’s passionate emotions under his calm appearance.

Hang City had a big train station, so there were many people getting on and off. Yu Yan raised her hand and waved it from more than ten meters away, indicating that she saw Duan Mei. Then, she carried her things and moved out of the crowd with difficulty.

Duan Mei and Mr. Yu knew that the train would definitely be delayed, so they took a shower before leaving. Unexpectedly, they arrived half an hour earlier than the train.

After suffering mosquito bites outside for half an hour and sweating profusely, they didn’t want to move at all.

Moreover, they had just arrived at the station and there were many people getting off the train. If they squeezed into the crowd, they would get all sweaty again. However, when they saw Yu Yan lower her head and bend down to take her things, the couple quickly exchanged looks and smiled as they went forward.

Two minutes later, the two sides finally met. Duan Mei hurriedly took the sack from Yu Yan’s right hand. “Let me carry this heavy thing.”

Yu Yan let go and watched as Duan Mei handed the sack to Mr. Yu. Then, Duan Mei introduced, “Mr. Yu, this is our second child, Yu Yan.”

Duan Mei turned around and smiled at Yu Yan. “Yu Yan, this is your father.”

Yu Yan immediately called out, “Dad!”

This was the first time Mr. Yu had heard his second daughter call him that after so many years. Thinking of how she had come all the way to see him, he was a little touched and the smile on his face became more sincere. “Yes!”

Mr. Yu took the sack and smiled at Yu Yan as he nodded. “Good child, you must be tired from such a long journey, right? Rest well when you get home later.”

Duan Mei held Yu Yan’s hand and said with a smile, “Yes, let’s go home quickly and talk at home.”

The three of them slowly followed the crowd out.

When Duan Mei noticed that Yu Yan was wearing a checkered shirt made of polyester fabric this time, she felt a little envious and looked at Yu Yan with an even more fervent gaze. “Yu Yan, have you eaten yet?”

Yu Yan nodded. “Mom, don’t worry. I bought boxed lunch in the car at mealtime.”

After leaving the station, Mr. Yu pushed out his car from the shed and tied the sack and luggage to the back of the car. Then, the family of three headed back to the courtyard.

The three of them returned home half an hour later.

Duan Mei and Mr. Yu were also a little glad that Yu Yan arrived late at night. At this time, the people in the courtyard had already returned home and fallen asleep, so they didn’t meet a single acquaintance.

Duan Mei had guessed that Yu Yan’s adoptive parents were well-off, but Yu Yan was very fond of her biological parents’ families, so they had to play the biological family card. She even specifically instructed Yu Wu and Yu Pan to perform well in front of Yu Yan for the next few days.
