Chapter 1093 Wandering the World
It was almost summer and the weather was hot, so Wei Jiali did not close the door when she slept.
Zhou Xiaoyong looked into the room and saw that Wei Jiali was indeed asleep, with her eyes closed and breathing evenly.
Zhou Xiaoyong tiptoed in, gently opened the drawer of the dresser, took out the stack of money, then tiptoed out, folded the money in half, and put it into his trouser pocket.
His trouser pockets are big enough to hold more than ten bills, and they also have a zipper so the money won't fall out when the zipper is closed.
Then, Zhou Xiaoyong walked to the door of the living room, opened the door gently and slipped out.
In this way, Zhou Xiaoyong realized his dream of running away from home.
In fact, before he planned to run away from home, Zhou Xiaoyong thought about going to Xiaohong's place to live with her, but he didn't like Dai Liming and felt that Dai Liming was as difficult to get along with as Wei Jiali now. If he went to Xiaohong
There, he would definitely be abused by Dai Liming. This would be like leaving his stepmother and meeting his "stepfather" again.
After Zhou Xiaoyong walked out of the gate of the community, he walked along the road for a while and then stopped a taxi.
The driver saw a five or six-year-old child and thought it was an adult asking the child to stop the car. When the child stopped the car, the adult would appear from somewhere.
After it was confirmed that Zhou Xiaoyong was the only child taking a taxi, the driver didn't ask any questions. Of course, he only cared about whether the child had any money on him.
When Zhou Xiaoyong, who was sitting in the back row, showed the money to him, he asked: "Where are you going?"
"Go...to the bus station."
"Which bus station? Xixiang Bus Station or Baoan Bus Station?"
"Of course it's Xixiang Bus Station, the closer the better!" Zhou Xiaoyong, who felt that he was out of the sea of suffering, felt relaxed and spoke like an adult.
The driver started the car and drove towards Xixiang Bus Station. Although there is currently no regulation that stipulates that children cannot take taxis alone, a five or six-year-old child going to the bus station still made him a little wary. After all, he is also a father himself.
.
While waiting for the traffic light, the driver tilted his head and asked: "Kid, why are you going to the bus station alone?"
Zhou Xiaoyong was very smart. He was worried that the taxi driver would take him home after knowing that he was running away from home, so he said, "I'll pick up my mother. My mother will be at the station soon."

At this time, the green light came on, and the taxi driver didn't think much, started the car and continued moving forward.
A few minutes later, the taxi arrived at the entrance of Xixiang Bus Station. Zhou Xiaoyong took out the money to pay the fare, got out of the car and walked into the bus station like an adult.
As he walked toward the station, he was thinking about where to go as the first stop. Finally, he made up his mind to go to Chengdu first because he had heard that his mother was in Chengdu before.
Although his father went there later and could not be found, he believed that his father was not searching seriously because his father did not want to be with his mother at all.
But when he stepped on his feet and told the conductor that he was going to Chengdu, the conductor said: "Children, you let adults buy tickets. We don't buy tickets for children."
"What's wrong with the child? Can't children ride in the car? I have money!" Zhou Xiaoyong said, raising a hundred yuan in his hand.
The conductor laughed and said, "It doesn't matter if you have money, just go away and don't block the people behind you."
At this time, a man in his thirties standing behind him said: "Kid, you can't go to Chengdu with a hundred yuan."
"How much does it cost?" Zhou Xiaoyong asked.
"I want three hundred and fifty yuan." The man waved the three hundred and one fifty bills in front of him.

Seeing the man talking nonsense to Zhou Xiaoyong, the conductor said to him impatiently: "Do you want to buy it?"
"Buy it, why don't you buy it?" The man quickly handed the money to the conductor.
Zhou Xiaoyong was not convinced, and took out three more one-hundred-dollar bills from his trouser pocket, pointed at the window and shouted: "Auntie, I have money, I want to go to Chengdu!"
At this time, the man who had already obtained the ticket led him to the ticket window and said, "Children cannot ride alone in the train!"
"Who said children can't ride alone in a car? I just took a taxi?"
"Taxi is a short-distance bus, but this is a long-distance bus. Do you know how long it takes to get from Xixiang to Chengdu?"
"How long will it take?"
"It will take about two days."
Zhou Xiaoyong thought that his father usually took planes when traveling far away, and then he realized that cars are a backward means of transportation.
"What if we take a plane?"

Seeing that Zhou Xiaoyong was wary of him, the man began to seduce Zhou Xiaoyong. He pretended to be kind and asked: "Kid, what are you going to Chengdu for?"
"It has nothing to do with you." Zhou Xiaoyong said and was about to leave.
"Hey, wait a minute."
"what?"
"I want to go to Chengdu too, why don't you come with me." The man shook the ticket in his hand.
Zhou Xiaoyong looked at his attractive ticket and said, "Are you going to buy the ticket for me?"
Zhou Xiaoyong has heard of a profession called "scalpers", who specialize in ticket scalping. They buy tickets in advance and then sell them to those who need them to earn the difference. He thinks this man should be the legendary "scalper"
”.
"No, I won't sell it to you. I told you I'm going to Chengdu too."
"Then what are you going to do?"
"I can take you there."
Seeing that Zhou Xiaoyong remained silent, the man continued: "An adult can take a child on the bus, and the child is free, didn't you know?"
Zhou Xiaoyong thought for a while, and it seemed that this was the case.
"Do you want to take me to Chengdu?"
"Yes. When you get on the bus, just say you are my son, so you can sit in the same seat as me."
Zhou Xiaoyong hesitated. He looked carefully at this man who looked unreliable, but he wanted to follow him to Chengdu.
What Zhou Xiaoyong is most worried about is meeting a human trafficker. If he is sold to someone else as his son, he will not be able to wander around the world, and he will not be able to see his mother again.
"What do you do?" Zhou Xiaoyong asked cautiously.
"Yeah, I'm a good person." The man took out a factory tag from a luggage bag he was carrying. It was his "work permit" from his previous job in an electronics factory.
"Look, this is my work permit. I am an employee of a company. Don't worry, I am not a human trafficker."
