Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 1517: Chapter 1511 – No Sleeping Berths Left_1 Chapter 1517: Chapter 1511 – No Sleeping Berths Left_1 “Hello, seven sleeper tickets to Sichuan Province, please.” Qing Teng handed the money through the window.

“Miss, I am sorry, but there are no sleeping berths available.” The ticket seller could not do anything about it. They were asking for too many berths that were not available, so she could only tell them they were not for sale.

“Are they not available or you don’t want to sell?” Qing Teng’s stern face was intimidating. You wouldn’t want to provoke her unnecessarily.

“It’s not that we don’t have enough to accommodate your whole group.” The ticket seller explained, looking at the now irritated Qing Teng. It wasn’t that she didn’t want to sell; she simply couldn’t.

“Then we will take sit-up tickets, thank you.” Nangong Beiying and Qin Xue who were standing nearby then spoke up after hearing the ticket seller’s statement.

“Miss, are you sure…” The ticket seller looked at Qing Teng’s still stern face, “I still have two sleepers left, if you want those.” she offered, unafraid of Qing Teng’s irritation.

“Well, get seven sitting tickets then.” Qing Teng had no choice but to go with Nangong Beiying’s suggestion.

“Alright, here are your tickets.” In no time, the ticket seller handed the tickets to Qing Teng.

“Thank you.” Qing Teng paid, collected the tickets, and left.

“Miss, I’m sorry that all of us have to travel sitting up.” Qing Teng knew they didn’t like the hustle and bustle of a common carriage, but they just had to put up with it this time.

“No worries. Nobody here knows who I am. Nothing will happen.” Nangong Beiying responded nonchalantly.

“Miss, rest assured, we will protect you and Miss Qin.” Cloud knew just how dangerous it was around Nangong Beiying. But, as she said, here they weren’t in the Imperial Capital, nobody knew them, and they had put on makeup before they left. Nobody would know the Misses were even gone.

However, one cannot be too relaxed and overlook any lurking dangers. Thus, they had to be extra careful and more observant.

“Um, Qing Teng, why did you buy seven tickets? Who’s the extra one for?” Nangong Beiying noticed that there were only six of them. She wondered who the additional ticket was for.

“It’s for the Elder’s man. Oh, is he here?” Qing Teng hadn’t told this man that Nangong Beiying was their leader, let alone that they were descendants of the Holy Maiden.

“Miss.” The man greeted Qing Teng upon catching sight of her, crossing his arms over his chest before speaking.

“Hmm, since you’re here, let’s go.” Qing Teng’s face remained just as cold. She was not as lighthearted and talkative with him as she was in the presence of Nangong Beiying and Qin Xue.

“Okay, but where’s the Holy Maiden? Didn’t you say you were bringing her back to the clan?” The man scanned their group. He recognized one person, the others didn’t seem to be the Holy Maiden. It seemed like the Holy Maiden hadn’t arrived yet.

“When I tell you to go, we go. Since when do you get to question my words?” Qing Teng’s voice changed. She looked at the man coldly. He was always too nosy for his own good.

“Yes, I understand.” The man knew better than to question Qing Teng anymore. Even though she hadn’t been to the clan in years, her status still stood. It wasn’t his place to object. When she said not to ask, he wasn’t to ask.

“Hey, big guy, long time no see, remember me?” Qin Xue said. She had been wondering why he was not around all this while – it turned out they had travelled separately.

“Remember, but what are you doing here?” The man asked, looking at Qin Xue.

“Want to know why?” Qin Xue asked with a grin.

“Tell me or not, up to you.” The man said, then reached out to take the bag from Qing Teng’s hands. He was quite a character.

“I can handle mine; you help the Misses with theirs.” Qing Teng could perfectly well carry hers. If it were an ordinary day, she would let him take it. But with the two Misses present, how could she not carry baggage and let the Misses do it? That was a big no-no, completely disrespectful.
