Xuxu smiled in response . "Thank you for the offer, but I'm not considering any jobs right now . "
Su Yan nodded . "I'll welcome you any time after you've made up your mind . You can leave any time as well . Treat this as a well-deserved break for your soul . "
Xuxu tightly pressed her lips and kept mum .
They reached the bus stop and the bus going to Donghai train station came on time .
They boarded the bus and paid for their ride .
Xuxu found an empty seat and sat down, while Su Yan stood beside her . He held on to the handrail for support as he watched her closely .
"Where shall we go next?"
Xuxu pondered for a moment before answering . "Let's head back to the capital city . "

Su Yan was rather taken aback . "So soon?"
The nearby cities had famous tourist spots . Their original plan was to tour all these cities before heading back home .
Xuxu peered down at her hands . She then mumbled, "I'm a little tired, and I miss my grandfather as well . "
Her hands unconsciously touched her tummy as mixed emotions swirled in her eyes .
The bus journey to the train station takes about more than an hour . It also briefly stopped at certain stops .
Xuxu became a little giddy as the ride was a little bumpy . Her stomach was churning once more .
She leaned against the window and covered her mouth with a hand .
"Are you feeling unwell?" asked Su Yan anxiously when he noticed her pale face .

Xuxu shook her head . "I'm fine . I might have eaten too much this morning, and it could be indigestion . "
She had barely finished speaking when she felt something gushing from her throat to her mouth .
She stopped herself from puking . She gave Su Yan a look and pointed at the bus driver .
Su Yan hastily shouted, "Stop the bus!"
After the bus driver had stopped the vehicle, Xuxu bolted for the exit . Once she got off the bus, she held onto a lamppost for support and started puking .
Su Yan watched Xuxu and finally, a thought struck him . He asked her rather apprehensively, "Xuxu, are you… pregnant?"
Xuxu didn't answer and rummaged through her bag for wet tissues . She pulled out one and wiped her mouth . "Come on, let's walk there . "
Su Yan was startled . "Walk?"
They had traveled half an hour by bus earlier on, and they still had at least half an hour before reaching the train station . If they commute on foot, they will need more than an hour .
Xuxu answered softly, "Let's walk for a while . "
The thought of taking the bus ride made her feel like puking once more .
Su Yan nodded . He glanced at her backpack and then stretched his hand to take it from her . "I'll carry it for you . "
Seeing how frail and weak she looked, it seemed that a strong gust of wind would sweep her off her feet .
Xuxu felt really terrible, and her bag was heavy with her belongings . She didn't reject and passed it on to him .
Su Yan turned on his GPS . He began to navigate their way .
His phone rang and Su Yue was calling .
He glanced at Xuxu before answering the call . He whispered, "Hello . "
He purposely slowed down so that Xuxu would be ahead of him .
…
Before reaching the beach, one could already catch a whiff of the salty seawater .
Yan Rusheng sat in a taxi . He was too restless to admire the scenery . He asked the driver, "Is this place huge?"
He wasn't chatting but merely trying to check the popular tourist spots so that he could analyze which places would Xuxu might be .
"Yes," the driver answered . "But if you want to catch the sunrise, the good spots are limited . "
Yan Rusheng asked again, "Is it crowded in winter?"
It was his first time taking a taxi and chatting with a driver . He tried his best to be courteous for fear that the driver might get annoyed with his questions .
