453 Res (2/2)

Both Ling Jiezhou and Tao Ping spoke one after another, and their voices could be heard from the entire clinic.

The neighbors were very polite. When they looked at the photos, somebody asked, ”Is the turtle meat nice? How did it taste as compared to soft-shelled turtles?”

”They did not allow us to eat them.” Ling Jiezhou felt regret and relief at the same time. ”If they really sold the meat, I guess we'll have to spend a lot. There aren't many turtles now.”

”Don't turtles lay a lot of eggs?”

”Not all can be hatched…”

”Are turtle eggs tasty?”

The shifting of the topic was expected.

Tao Ping and Ling Jiezhou was not bothered. They just wanted the photos to be shared around. These people might already be off topic, but it was nothing at all compared to how people digressed in the comment sections of their WeChat moments.

Although Ling Ran went into the clinic, he did not get a lot of attention from them. At most, only seven to eight neighbors, around ten of his family members, and seven to eight young ladies greeted him.

Ling Ran showed a socially acceptable smile. Then, he was caught by Tao Ping and had his hair ruffled mercilessly by his mother.

”When we're not at home, did you eat well? Did you dress up warmly? Did you have enough money?” Tao Ping chattered on and asked many questions in one go. After she received affirmative answers from Ling Ran, she let go of Ling Ran.

Ling Ran stood obediently at the place with the dimmest light. Although he still attracted the attention of many people, the effect of him catching the attention of others had been minimized.

Madam Tao Ping decided that Ling Ran had the right to remain by her side after considering the fact that many neighbors would go away if she chased Ling Ran back to his bedroom. She also started a new topic.

”The plane that we took this time is really convenient. It was a Boeing 787, the world's largest airplane. But there were very few people in the flight. After we got tired of sitting in the business class cabin, the stewardess even invited us to walk around inside the airplane. Then, I felt more comfortable.” The reason behind why Tao Ping was able to become the fashion representative in Lower Groove and the surrounding areas because she could mix around with the crowd while chatting in the alley.

The neighbors indeed started imagining the world's largest airplane and the first class cabin. Everyone was happy as they chatted. Some elderly men and women who were free suddenly called out to Juan Zi for another two injections of red sage.

Ling Ran's phone vibrated for a while at this time.

Ling Ran took out the phone and saw a Wechat message sent by Tian Qi.

[Have your parents arrived safely? I met them at Tahiti, so we came back in the same flight.] Tian Qi even added a cute emoji at the end of the sentence.

Ling Ran typed. [They're now sharing their experience in the first class cabin.]

[Since we were short on time and there were not many flights back to our country, it's not ideal if I let those who had purchased their tickets to get a refund. Although my family is one of the shareholders, I still need to consider the opinions of other shareholders and the board of directors.] Tian Qi immediately sent her text over. Then, she sent another text. [I'm preparing to ask my family to own an airline company, and I believe more and more people will have this demand in coming times.]

Ling Ran sent a smiling emoji.

Tian Qi was motivated and typed in excitement. [Although I can't compare myself with you, who always needs to make decisions that concerns life and death, I'll still work hard.]

Tian Qi sent out the message by closing her eyes. When she opened her eyes, she saw Ling Ran's reply.

[Work hard.] Ling Ra added an emoji at the end of the sentence.

Tian Qi was so happy that she laughed. She could not help but roll around her bed and threw away the pillow that blocked her way to the side of the bed. Then, she clapped and shouted, ”Xiao Wei, I want to see stars.”

”Okay, Young Qi.” The AI butler, Xiao Wei, replied gently. The ceiling over Tian Qi's head opened slowly. Then, the room became dimmer, and starlight could be seen.

Tian Qi looked at the stars and fell asleep.
