Chapter 224: Picking Up Someone from the Station

As the train entered the section of the capital, the scenery outside the window gradually became more bustling.

"Attention passengers, the train will enter the Capital Station in twenty minutes. Please prepare to disembark in advance."

The attendant's voice echoed through every carriage.

Ma Chulan stretched out a long yawn.

Having been confined to such a small space for several days of travel, she felt like she was about to go stir-crazy.

Everyone in the carriage began organizing their luggage; Su Yan's berth was clean and completely empty.

"Yueling, just hang in there. Once we get into the capital, we'll take you to the hospital immediately," Kong Yueqing comforted the semi-conscious Kong Yueling.

Although Kong Yueling's condition was not life-threatening, she urgently needed inpatient treatment.

Gan Hua and Ruan Tao were responsible for packing the belongings of the four of them.

From time to time, enthusiastic passengers nearby would proactively ask if they needed help.

From the moment the train restarted yesterday morning until now, a full day and night later, their group had become the liveliest spot on the entire train.

Even the attendants gave them extra care.

After all, they were the heroes of this train.

"Su Yan, where are we going first after we get off?" Ma Chulong glanced at the time; the train would enter the station in ten minutes.

And they hadn't come this time for sightseeing.

With the energy of the three of them, they naturally didn't need to rest.

"Someone should be coming to pick us up," Su Yan said, not entirely certain.

Before leaving, she had called Gu Yang. Gu Yang had asked very detailed questions, so he was definitely coming to meet them. However, something had happened to Zhou Luoluo on the road, and the train was arriving more than ten hours later than expected. She wasn't quite sure if Gu Yang would still be at the station.

Ma Chulan immediately perked up. "Is it your fiancé?"

Previously, she and her older brother had mistaken Su Yao for her fiancé; surely they wouldn't make a mistake this time, right?

As expected, she received an affirmative answer from Su Yan: "Yes."

The siblings looked at each other, both carrying a hint of faint anticipation.

They couldn't wait to know exactly what kind of man could marry such a wonderful girl as Su Yan.

"Su Yan, your fiancé will definitely be very happy to know your eyes have recovered," Ma Chulong said from the bottom of his heart.

Su Yan froze slightly, realizing she had forgotten to tell Gu Yang about this.

But it didn't matter; he would find out sooner or later anyway.

At this moment, Gu Yang was waiting on the platform, constantly checking the time.

He had already come once yesterday, waiting here for a full hour, only to find out from the railway staff that Su Yan's train had been delayed due to issues on the route.

He had repeatedly confirmed that the train had departed again and would arrive today.

Although he didn't know exactly what problem the train had encountered, as long as he couldn't see Su Yan immediately, his tense mood could not relax.

However, he hadn't come alone today; Lu Feng, who wasn't too busy, had insisted on coming along to join the excitement.

"Alright, stop looking. You're going to burn a hole in your watch."

Having a rare chance to tease Gu Yang, Lu Feng naturally wouldn't let it pass.

Moreover, he was currently extremely curious about Gu Yang's fiancée.

Just what kind of girl could make someone like Gu Yang so preoccupied?

Gu Yang couldn't be bothered to chat with him, his eyes fixed steadily on the station entrance.

Finally, the train slowly approached.

"It's here." Lu Feng confirmed as well, and both men braced themselves.

"Entering the station." On the train, Ma Chulong signaled to Su Yan and Ma Chulan.

The moment the train came to a complete stop, all the passengers swarmed toward the carriage doors.

This journey had undoubtedly been the most heart-pounding experience of their lives.

Su Yan was in no rush; instead, she waited patiently for the majority of the crowd to leave.

Her luggage was simple, consisting of only one very lightweight suitcase.

In comparison, Ma Chulong and Ma Chulan had much more luggage than her.

Kong Yueqing and Ruan Tao helped Kong Yueling away from the berth first.

Seeing that most people had left, Ma Chulong said, "Let's go too."

Su Yan followed behind the two of them. Just then, Gan Hua, who was carrying everyone's luggage, also walked out.

Although they had spent two or three days in the same carriage, Su Yan had not spoken a single word to them.

However, the aisle was clearly too narrow for two people to pass at once. Gan Hua looked at Su Yan and said politely, "You go first."

Su Yan: "Thank you."

The distance between them was very close, so much so that when Gan Hua's gaze swept across Su Yan's cheek, he visibly froze for a moment.

This reaction was naturally captured by Su Yan.

Su Yan immediately withdrew her gaze and turned her head forward.

"Your eyes..." Gan Hua's murmur sounded behind her.

Su Yan's brow furrowed slightly.

Although she could now perfectly control the energy within her pupils, if one looked closely, the depths of her pupils were still different from ordinary people.

As a fellow exorcist, Gan Hua would likely find it easier to notice.

Her teacher had once said: "An ordinary man is innocent, but possessing a treasure makes him a criminal."

And her eyes were an extremely mysterious treasure. Therefore, before they left, Granny Li had repeatedly urged her: until she was strong enough to fear nothing at all, she must never reveal the secret of her dual pupils.

Now, she understood Granny Li's and her teacher's warnings even more deeply. She had only officially used that power once, and yet the Feng family had already targeted her, causing her father to be lying in a hospital bed even now.

So, she absolutely could not let the Kong family find out.

Just as Su Yan was wondering whether she should simply kill him to silence him, Gan Hua's voice rang out again.

"Quite beautiful."

Perhaps after saying this, Gan Hua himself felt it was too abrupt. Fearing Su Yan would take him for a lecher, he hurriedly added, "Little sister, I didn't mean anything else."

In fact, even he was startled by himself, not understanding why such a sentence had suddenly popped out.

Listening to his somewhat flustered explanation, Su Yan seemed to truly not have noticed anything. The killing intent in her eyes slowly receded as she resumed her pace.

At this moment, Gu Yang, waiting on the platform, had been looking longingly for her.

He almost didn't dare miss a single person disembarking, fearing he might miss Su Yan.

Lu Feng's curiosity reached its peak along with his tension.

"Your fiancée isn't still on the train, is she?"

He teased intentionally.

Gu Yang shot him a direct look of death, then murmured as if to himself, "Yan Yan's eyes aren't very good; she'll probably disembark a bit slowly."

Lu Feng froze because of those words.

Eyes aren't good?

It couldn't be what he was thinking, could it?

There was no way Gu Yang would be so devoted as to like a girl with a visual impairment, right?

Ma Chulong and Ma Chulan stepped off the train with their luggage, the siblings looking around at the same time.

Then, their gazes almost simultaneously locked onto Gu Yang.

Because even in a crowded station, this man was an absolute presence that could not be ignored.
