Chapter 324


    The next morning.


    Summer waited until Charlotte woke up naturally.


    They took their breakfast, after which Daisy took Charlotte to the park, watching her swing and feed the


    birds.


    The sense of urgency and fear in Summer''s heart vanished overnight.


    Daisy was relieved, but Summer was embarrassed by herself. "I won’t make you worry about me


    again, Mom. I can solve the problem by myself."


    "Well then, when you can’t handle it, tell me and your dad, and we are all standing behind you."


    "Okay, Mom."


    By the time Summer and Charlotte arrived at the train station, it was 3:00 pm, and the tickets for the


    highspeed train had all been sold out.

    So she asked Charlotte whether she would like to take a ne or a slow train.


    Charlotte bit her finger and thought for a long time before she said that she had not taken a slow train


    before and did not know what a slow train looked like.


    Summerughed. She bought two tickets for sleeping


    berths because the journey would take 12 hours, and sitting on a seat for 12 hours straight could be too


    brutal for Charlotte.


    The little girl was excited about taking a slow train for the first time. When she got on the train, she sat


    in the window seat, happily kicking her two legs.


    Summer had bought some donuts and handed them to Charlotte, thinking that Charlotte might be


    hungry.


    Charlotte was thoughtful. She handed it to Summer, saying, "You eat too, Mommy. I can’t finish it


    alone.”


    "You''re so sweet." Summer stroked Charlotte’s hair and sat down opposite her.


    They shared the donut, each eating from the other side. They giggled as their heads bumped into each


    other like two fighting calves.


    "Naughty!” She affectionately poked Charlotte''s small and cute nose tip with a fingertip.


    Taking the slow train had the advantage that they could appreciate the scenery outside the window,


    unlike on a high-speed train where everything flew past before they could take a closer look.


    Sometimes the train passed through a lush forest, where green branches extended out and fluttered in


    the breeze. Sometimes it passed by some vineyards where they could see grapes hanging from the


    vines.


    Charlotte was resting her head on the windowsill, curiously looking out of the window with her butt


    pointing skyward. "Mommy, can we take the slow train again next time?"


    "Sure, we will take the slow train again next time." Summer smiled, gazing out of the window, too.


    Looking at the field outside rxed her.


    There were another two children, a boy and a girl, the same age as Charlotte, in the same carriage.


    It did not take long before Charlotte ended up ying with them. They started to run around the


    carriage with exhration.


    They boarded the train at about 5:00 pm yesterday. The train was scheduled to take 12 hours to arrive


    at Nokoc Bay at 5:00 am the next morning. But the train was dyed midway and reached


    Nokoc Bay at 6:00 am.


    The sun had not yete out at 6:00 am, and the air was cool and fresh. It feltfortable and made


    people at ease.


    "Are you going to kindergarten today or tomorrow, Charlotte?"


    Since Charlotte was still small, after a night of train ride, Summer was worried that Charlotte would still


    feel sleepy even though she had slept at night.


    But Charlotte looked all bright-eyed and bushy-tailed. She creased her nose and said, "I am going


    today.


    Teacher says that those who skip sses are not good students. I want to be a good student and get


    rewards for it."


    "You’re a good student, Charlotte." Summer chuckled. They went to get a quick bite before she sent


    Charlotte to the kindergarten, after which she went to work straight away.
