Yan Rusheng thought to himself, this was what he deserved, and he deserved even more punishment .
The train finally began to slow down as the announcements rang at repeated intervals . The announcements included gentle reminders and blessings .
Xuxu carried her bag and pulled her luggage . She was preparing to leave the carriage .
"I'm back . " Su Yan came back after washing up . He realized that Xuxu was all ready . He threw his belongings carelessly inside his backpack . Then he extended his hand without asking Xuxu and snatched her luggage away from her . "I'll help you to carry . It's crowded outside, be extra careful as your shoes are slippery . Watch your steps as you walk . "
His careful and deliberate reminders attracted Yan Rusheng's attention . A crease appeared between his eyebrows as he cast a puzzled look at Su Yan .
Su Yan raised an eyebrow, and seem to throw it back at him .
He seemed to ask what happened .

Yan Rusheng's eyes traveled to Xuxu's tummy and recalled how she had puked earlier on . He stood there in deep thoughts .
Xuxu silently glared at Su Yan before snatching back her luggage back from him . She strode forward without hesitation and left the room without a second look .
"Oops . She is angry . " Su Yan shrugged his shoulders helplessly .
Yan Rusheng hastily darted after her and followed her closely . For fear of infuriating her, he kept a small distance away from her .
Throngs of commuters were leaving the train, and there were people alighting from other trains too . The air wasn't that well-circulated underground .
A strong stench of some local produce, presumably salted vegetables, suddenly permeated the air .
Xuxu caught a whiff of the smell, and she became nauseated once more . She quickly covered her mouth and hastened her footsteps .

Yan Rusheng knew that she wasn't feeling well, and he caught up with her with several big strides . "Xuxu . "
Xuxu continued to quicken her pace .
Yan Rusheng shot a swift look at her feet, and he became anxious and worried .
"Look! Isn't that Flourish & Prosper's President and his wife?"
"Oh my, it's really them!"
"He is so handsome! Take a photo quickly!"
Xuxu and Yan Rusheng had frequently appeared on the news, so it wasn't a surprise that someone would recognzied them in a public place . The crowd began to jostle and push their way towards them .
The people nearest to them started the ball rolling and began to whip out their phones .
Xuxu bowed her head, and her hand was still covering her mouth .
She hated these situations . Every time she was at a slightly crowded place, she would be thrown in the limelight when spotted .
Xuxu couldn't control her nausea any longer when she reached the exit near the ticket counter . She sprinted to a trash can and started puking .
Actually, there wasn't anything left in her stomach but this perpetual nauseous feeling made her constantly feel like throwing up .
She had experienced this some years ago…
Her energy had drained after throwing up and she couldn't stand up by herself . She pressed her palm against the wall for support .
"Xuxu . " Yan Rusheng's outstretched hand was about to hold Xuxu, but she instantly pushed his hand away .
Within those few minutes, he felt that she seemed to have shrunk once more .
He tried to get close to her again, but she rejected his help once again . Yan Rusheng was helpless . He knew that if Xuxu was adamant on refusing, it would have adverse effects if he tried to use force .
"Xuxu…"
Two familiar figures strode towards her and gave her a warm welcome . It startled Xuxu, and it took several seconds before she could put a weak smile on her face . "Aunt Mu Li . "
Her eyes traveled to Yan Weihong who stood beside Mu Li . In a rather reproachful tone, Xuxu said, "Second Uncle Yan hasn't made a full recovery . How can you make him travel so far in the morning?"
Mu Li grabbed her hand and smiled warmly . "We are here to fetch you . "
