Ch127.1 - Return to Beijing (1/2)
An hour and a half later, Yu Hao returned to the county town and called Jin Weicheng outside the motorcycle rental car shop. Zhou Sheng’s handsome nose had turned red from being blown by the cold wind. He took his woolen cap off and put it on Yu Hao. Yu Hao told Jin Weicheng to regroup in the county town, and they should try their best to leave that day.
Jin Weicheng found a place to charge his phone. Yu Hao checked the train’s schedule; there were no more trains to Beijing, and they had to wait until 7 o’clock tomorrow for the next time. They needed to get out of here as soon as possible.
Zhou Sheng took back the ID card he had left at the rental car shop and looked at Yu Hao in a daze. It has been 36 hours since he got on the plane, it was freezing cold, and Zhou Sheng hadn’t been getting much sleep for several days in a row, so his brain was like a mush of paste now. He rode a motorcycle and suffered the onslaught of the cold wind for nearly five hours as he drove around everywhere searching frantically, and he was a little delirious now. When he saw Yu Hao, the two of them looked at each other, yet they had nothing to say to each other for a moment.
“Are you hungry?” Yu Hao said, “Wait in Beijing ah, why did you come all the way here?”

Zhou Sheng shouted hysterically, “If I was fucking waiting for you in Beijing, would you have been able to go back?! Didn’t you see how dangerous it was just now?!”
When Zhou Sheng roared, the boss thought he was going to hit someone. Yu Hao quickly pulled him to the corner and said, “I was wrong, I was wrong……don’t shout at me! It wasn’t easy for me to get this interview!”
Zhou Sheng’s frozen hands covered Yu Hao’s face, and he tilted his head slightly to kiss him. Yu Hao couldn’t move at all and just hugged him. After Zhou Sheng finished kissing him, he forcefully embraced Yu Hao.
“Are you hungry?” Yu Hao said, “How long has it been since you ate? Eat something first, we’ll be heading to Beijing soon. It’s too unsafe here.”
Yu Hao took out some bread for Zhou Sheng to eat. He wanted to go to a shop to buy water, but Zhou Sheng yanked at him with an ashen face, “From now on, you cannot leave my sight.”
Yu Hao quickly said, “I’m just buying you a bottle of water.”
They were at the edge of the county. The car rental shop closed. Yu Hao and Zhou Sheng stood somewhere without wind. Zhou Sheng drank mineral water, ate chocolate, then began to wolf down the meat floss bun. He felt slightly better and regained his strength.

“You even carry this around with you.”
“It’s to feed dogs with.” Yu Hao looked outside and thought that they had to hurry to the railway station. When he turned around, he saw that Zhou Sheng had stopped halfway through eating.
Zhou Sheng glared at him, his mouth stuffed with bread. He looked down at the meat floss bun, then looked at Yu Hao, his expression appearing very gloomy.

Yu Hao nodded. His fingers rubbed against Zhou Sheng’s cold, large hand, their fingers intertwined. He shifted close to his ear and whispered, “We’re going back now.”
Yu Hao was worried that there would be plain clothes outside the railway station too. After the plant received the news, they must have notified the county town. But unexpectedly, it snowed, and the outside of the station was deserted. Yu Hao said, “Let’s find a place to stay at first.”
Zhou Sheng finished the bread used to feed dogs in one bite and drank a mouthful of water. He finally managed to recover a little, “I’ll look at the schedule. Your Laoshi is such an asshole, he actually left you behind and ran off by himself?”
“I asked him to run away first.” Yu Hao said, “We discussed it before coming out. I’m a student, he’s a reporter; the degree of severity after getting caught is different ……stay at a bathhouse?”
Zhou Sheng said, “There’s a train to Hohhot at 9 o’clock, buy that one. Do as I say.”
Yu Hao thought he was right, if they could run then, they should just run and discuss things again after escaping. Zhou Sheng took Yu Hao’s phone and bought tickets for three people. When they entered the station, they saw Jin Weicheng sitting at the snack bar eating instant noodles.
“Hello Laoshi.” Zhou Sheng held Yu Hao’s hand and didn’t let go, shaking hands with Jin Weicheng, “Laoshi stop eating, let’s go!’ As he spoke, he grabbed Jin Weicheng’s instant noodles and threw it straight into a garbage bin, then turned around and took Yu Hao away.
Yu Hao, “……”

“Are there plain clothes?” Yu Hao asked in a soft voice after entering the station.
Zhou Sheng said, “Definitely. Don’t look around when we’re in the waiting area, don’t be nervous.”
Zhou Sheng’s gaze make a quick sweep. Yu Hao couldn’t tell. There weren’t many people in the waiting hall. Zhou Sheng pointed at one who had his back facing them, pointed at the toilet, then pointed at his watch.
