Chapter 520 - Won’t You Feel Lonely If You Sleep Alone? (2/2)
“Great, I’ll pick you up at the airport by then,” Leng Shaoting said.
“What?” Gu Ning was surprised. “It takes three hours of flying from the capital to City G! If you’re going to pick us up at the airport, you can’t have a good rest.”
Gu Ning didn’t want Leng Shaoting to be so tired because he had just finished his task.
“I want to meet you as soon as possible, and I can rest in the plane,” Leng Shaoting said. He couldn’t wait a second longer to meet Gu Ning.
“Alright!” Since Leng Shaoting said so, Gu Ning agreed because she also ached to see him.
The two hung up later after talking for a short while.
That night, Gu Man still couldn’t fall asleep, but she was able to stay cheerful after drinking the water Gu Ning poured for her the next day.
It was the first time that Gu Man and Gu Qing had taken a plane, so both of them were quite nervous.
Gu Ning bought the plane tickets for the first cla.s.s, so they could use the VIP lounge but Gu Man and Gu Qing were curious about the airport terminals, so they waited there instead.
It was still a dozen minutes away from the departure time, and they were sitting on the chairs outside of the gate.
“Man, are you nervous? I’m really nervous now!” Gu Qing asked Gu Man and her voice was trembling.
“Me too!” Gu Man said.
“Will the plane be stable if it flies so fast? And will it fall if it flies so high?” Gu Qing asked with anxiety.
“Gee, two b.u.mpkins!” Hearing the talk between Gu Qing and Gu Man, a woman who sat nearby laughed at them.
Gu Qing and Gu Man felt a little embarra.s.sed, while Gu Ning was slightly annoyed. Even if Gu Qing and Gu Man were b.u.mpkins, Gu Ning wouldn’t tolerate it if anyone else dared make fun of them. However, she didn’t want to make a mountain out of a molehill just because of that, so she stayed quiet for now. If the woman dared to do it again, she wouldn’t be quiet anymore.
Since the woman laughed at them, Gu Qing and Gu Man shut their mouths at once. “Mom, aunt, it’s not a big deal, and it’s totally understandable that you’re nervous when you are flying for the first time,” Gu Ning said to comfort them.
Gu Qing and Gu Man gave her a smile to show that they didn’t mind.
Nevertheless, the woman opened her mouth again, “A bunch of b.u.mpkins!”
“Shut up!” Gu Ning criticized her coldly, turning to stare at the woman. Her look was very sharp, and the woman felt frightened. Jesus! This young girl is so frightening! The woman thought to herself then turned her gaze away from Gu Ning.
“Ningning, it’s fine.” Seeing that Gu Ning was getting mad, Gu Man and Gu Qing comforted her in a hurry. They disliked the woman’s behavior too, but didn’t want to make a scene here.
Since the woman was scared of her, Gu Ning didn’t say another word.
When it was the departure time, everyone started to get aboard. The woman who had made fun of Gu Qing and Gu Man got on the plane along with them.
