311 Motion Sickness (2/2)
The flight attendant pretended not to hear him and continued welcoming the other passengers.
She was an attractive lady, and even Xiao Luo took several glances at her. She was possibly in her early twenties, her dark silky hair was pulled back neatly into a bun, revealing her fair complexion. Delicate wisps of hair at the nape of her neck added a captivating allure.
She had a light fringe which accentuated her high forehead and seemed to be the vogue among flight attendants.
She had a delicate face and exquisite features of unrivaled beauty, and she wore a light gloss on her lips. She had a slender figure and was dressed in a well-fitting uniform, slightly opened at the neckline and gracefully complemented by a silk scarf. She was quite a bewitching sight to behold.
When Xiao Luo went through the cabin door, she greeted him with a smile and a courteous nod. A name was engraved on her tag pinned on her chest: Tan Ningfu, First Class Flight Attendant.
...
This was the first time Xiao Luo had boarded a plane, and the way he saw it, it would be no different from riding a bus. He would just have to get to his assigned seat, and that was it.
After the cabin door was closed, a pre-flight safety demonstration was carried out in the cabin. Xiao Luo sat in the first-class cabin. The flight attendant, Tan Ningfu, demonstrated the use of the life jacket and oxygen mask.
The plane was then towed back from the bridge, and leaving the tarmac, slowly taxied to the end of the runway. After getting its clearance for take-off, the aircraft began to roll down the runway, quickly accelerating to reach its take-off speed. Then, the nose of the plane lifted, and the colossal frame of the aircraft was airborne, soaring into the darkening sky.
Xiao Luo felt a discomfort, making him feel dizzy and nauseous, and he immediately knew that he was suffering from motion sickness.
”Are you alright, sir?” Seeing his reaction, Tan Ningfu hurried over and checked on him.
”I'm fine, don't worry about me.”
Xiao Luo reclined his seat and leaned back, closing his eyes. His Yi Jinjing quickly went to work, forcibly suppressing the discomfort. His forehead began perspiring, and his brows were knitted, making him look rather unwell.
”Let me get you a cup of water.”
Tan Ningfu was a very experienced flight attendant, and she quickly affirmed that Xiao Luo was suffering from motion sickness.
With the help of his Yi Jinjing ability, Xiao Luo gradually recovered, and the discomfort left him like a receding tide. He opened his eyes and was greeted by a beautiful smile.
”Sir, this water is for you!” Tan Ningfu placed a cup of clear water on the chair-table in front of Xiao Luo.
”Thank you.”
Xiao Luo nodded in gratitude as he was really in need of a glass of water.
”You're welcome.”
Tan Ningfu smiled and turned away as she went to see if other passengers needed service.
Xiao Luo took a sip of water and looked out the window. He saw the fiery red glow of the sunset in the distant sky. Hidden behind a sea of thick clouds, it was a majestic sight. It felt like he had arrived in paradise and would catch a glimpse of the heavenly palace at any time, somewhere deep within the clouds.
But in ten minutes, there was nothing but darkness outside the window.
On the other hand, it was full of excitement in the cabin. Copying the style of male leads flirting with women in Korean soap operas, the tall and thin young man who flirted with Tan Ningfu during boarding kept hitting the call button to get her attention. Instead of ordering food or drinks, he would pester Tan Ningfu for her contact number. He wasn't interested in ordering anything at all.
”Sir, this is the last time. Please stop fooling around!” Tan Ningfu told the man, saying it firmly but not harshly.
