Chapter 229: Chapter 229: All Accomplices

Hua Ying didn’t know how to answer for a moment, fortunately, Jiang Cheng was good at breaking silences.

"If you don’t say anything, I’ll take it as a yes."

After Jiang Cheng spoke, she pointed at Li Chunxiang and Gao Zhonghua and introduced, "This is Comrade Gao Zhonghua, and this is Comrade Li Chunxiang. The three of us are together."

Hua Ying nodded at the two people, standing tall in the middle, unsure of what to do for a moment.

Looking at Hua Ying’s cool and sharp face, Jiang Cheng always felt that her brain and face didn’t quite match.

"You should tidy up your berth first."

With one sentence, Jiang Cheng pointed Hua Ying in the right direction.

"Okay!"

Hua Ying was not talkative.

When she was silent, her face was stern, with a clear message that strangers should stay away.

But in reality...

This girl brought her own bedsheet, yet she fumbled with it for a long time without getting it right.

Her face grew colder, but her increasingly frantic movements showed her inner turmoil.

Jiang Cheng gave Li Chunxiang a look, and Li Chunxiang nodded.

"Comrade Hua, let me help you."

Hua Ying expressed gratitude with a "cold" face.

"It’s nothing, no need to thank me."

Li Chunxiang quickly helped, and asked in passing, "How do you know Boss Jiang?"

Boss Jiang?

Hua Ying looked at Jiang Cheng.

Jiang Cheng nodded at her.

Hua Ying withdrew her gaze, saying coolly, "She beat up someone I dislike."

Li Chunxiang was even more intrigued.

"Really? Then Boss Jiang must have won, right?"

Hua Ying nodded slightly, and Li Chunxiang said with a cheerful smile, "My boss is amazing!"

Soon, once Li Chunxiang finished making the bed, Hua Ying thanked her again.

She took out Taotou to share with a few people, and Li Chunxiang and Gao Zhonghua instinctively looked at Jiang Cheng.

Having understood a bit of Hua Ying’s personality, Jiang Cheng said, "This Taotou smells really good, give me a piece to try."

Jiang Cheng, Gao Zhonghua, and Li Chunxiang each took a whole piece, and the three of them shared it while eating.

Hua Ying wanted to give more, but Jiang Cheng didn’t take any more.

However, seeing them eat, she felt a bit relieved.

She didn’t like owing others.

The compartment became quiet again, and on the train traveling through the night, the sound of snoring gradually began to rise.

At the break of dawn, Jiang Cheng was no longer in the compartment.

She had gone outside the compartment to talk to the attendant.

The train staff came at fixed times every day, apart from a few routine inspections, they followed the train schedule.

Jiang Cheng was restless, and since she couldn’t chat with the passengers, she decided to chat with the staff instead.

Just as she was talking, Zhang Guisheng, who had been with Hua Ying the day before, arrived.

"Hello, comrade, is my fiancée Hua Ying awake?"

Jiang Cheng sneered inwardly.

She could bet that Zhang Guisheng must have mentioned his "fiancée" Hua Ying several times in his compartment throughout the night.

Now he wanted to use her as a stepping stone to solidify this title further.

But she just wouldn’t comply!

"Who?"

Jiang Cheng feigned confusion, and Zhang Guisheng repeated himself.

Jiang Cheng suddenly realized, "Oh, Hua Ying——how do I remember that she said she’s not your fiancée?"

"I must have remembered wrong. Let me call Comrade Hua Ying to check."

The "enthusiastic" Jiang Cheng was about to open the door when Zhang Guisheng stopped her.

"No need, don’t disturb Hua Ying’s rest. I’ll wait here for a bit."
