At the Coro Island Airport, a woman in casual clothes and sunglasses dragged her suitcase as she walked through the empty airport hall alone.
The tourists who occasionally passed by her frequently glanced at her. Although they couldn't see her face clearly because of the sunglasses, it was not difficult to judge from her graceful figure and beautiful face that this woman was at least a beauty who could cause a disaster.
Perhaps she was a celebrity traveling alone?
The tourists that passed by her were hesitant to ask for an autograph. Perhaps this would be the start of a beautiful encounter …
But those people were destined to be disappointed.
First, Xia Shiyu was not a celebrity.
Second, the beauty already had a crush on him.
It was June and the sun was scorching hot. Xia Shiyu felt the unique tropical heat as soon as she left the airport.
After she left the airport, she walked straight to the road outside the airport and stood under the palm tree.
She shook her head at the taxi driver's whistle, indicating that she was waiting for someone. Then she took out her phone to check the time.
【10:00】
The flight arrived half an hour early. There was still half an hour before the scheduled pickup time.
His thumb hovered over the phone's logo for two seconds before moving to the camera logo.
She opened the camera function and selected the front camera.
Looking at the pretty face on the screen, she was silent for a moment.
[Is the fringe a bit crooked?]
She reached out and fiddled with her bangs that she had permed two days ago, trying to make it look more natural.
On the plane, she put on some light makeup. As to why she did it, she didn't know. Perhaps she wanted to capture the moment of amazement from a certain pair of pupils, or perhaps she wanted to cover the brilliance of a certain opponent …
Both reasons seemed to be the same.
Just as she looked at herself in the "mirror", a funny accent suddenly appeared in her ears.
"Beautiful lady, is this your first time at Pannu Islands?"
[Is he calling me?]
Xia Shiyu paused for a moment as she turned around to look at the tall and skinny European with a hooked nose and deep eye sockets.
After a moment of silence, she responded with a simple throat.
"Mhmm."
According to her experience, most people who tried to strike up a conversation would walk away awkwardly after receiving a cold response.
But obviously, she was thinking too much. Being reserved and reserved was the unique demeanor of Asians. Facing Xia Shiyu's indifference, the hook-nosed man was even more interested. He shamelessly approached her and spoke in a familiar tone.
"What a coincidence, it's also my first time here. I was a bit nervous on the plane. If this place was as messy as the news said, then I would have wasted my trip. But I realized my mistake as soon as I got off the plane. "
"Oh?"
"Because I met you." The Hooked Nose looked into her eyes with what he thought was a touching air.
However, Xia Shiyu only paused.
Was this a confession? This was clearly the first time they met...
Seeing that the beauty did not respond, the hook-nosed man smiled. He was not discouraged and took out a business card from his pocket.
"Kevin Adams, a professional traveler from America, editor-in-chief of Traveler Magazine. Here's my business card. You can call me Kevin. I don't know if I have the honor to invite you to tour this beautiful southern island. "
To the person who hovered around her like a fly, especially the undisguised desire in his eyes, she instinctively felt annoyed.
However, just as she was wondering how to get rid of him, she heard a familiar voice.
"Hello, Mr. Adams, I think it's better if I call you by your last name." Jiang Chen took the business card from his hand and ignored the frozen expression on his face. He took out his own business card and handed it to him with a smile. "Mhmm, I almost forgot. This is my business card."
Seeing Jiang Chen, Xia Shiyu secretly felt relieved.
Speaking of which, he always appeared in front of her when she was in trouble and helped her out … With this thought in mind, Xia Shiyu felt a sense of security.
But this international friend was not so friendly.
Kevin examined Jiang Chen from top to bottom as anger flashed across his face. He did not accept Jiang Chen's business card.
"I didn't say I wanted to exchange business cards with you, sir. Or is it that people from your country are all this rude in front of women? "As he said this, he raised his hooked nose and looked at Jiang Chen with a disgusting attitude.
Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows, but he was not angry. He put away the business card and smiled.
"Rude? Our etiquette is not to cause trouble to others. What is your etiquette? Causing trouble to others? "
Kevin's face turned red as he could not refute Jiang Chen's words.
Seeing that he didn't respond, Jiang Chen smirked and didn't bother with him anymore.
Jiang Chen turned to Xia Shiyu and said apologetically.
"Sorry, I'm a bit late."
"No, I'm early," Xia Shiyu said apologetically.
[Is he … jealous?]
Xia Shiyu's thoughts ran wild as she felt her heartbeat speed up.
Jiang Chen did not notice Xia Shiyu's thoughts as he smiled.
"Let's talk in the car."
Jiang Chen took the suitcase from her hand.
"Wait." Seeing that Xia Shiyu was about to leave, Kevin couldn't help but feel anxious. He wanted to stop the two, but he crashed into a wall.
A man in a police uniform stood in front of him like an iron tower and looked down at him indifferently.
"What are you doing? You're blocking the way," Kevin said angrily.
Seeing that the goddess he had met by chance got into someone else's car, he felt a burst of anger in his heart. He unconsciously vented his anger on the man in front of him who was blocking his way.
"Sir, I suspect there is a problem with your passport."
"Passport? Impossible. "Kevin took out his passport and stuffed it in front of his chest." Open your eyes and look carefully! "
The police scanned the passport and nodded. "That's right, there is a problem with your passport. Your ID is on the blacklist. Please contact your country's embassy and submit proof of no criminal record before you can enter the country. "
"Blacklist? That's impossible! "Kevin roared angrily. He had traveled across 34 countries, and it was the first time he was stopped because of a blacklist. In all honesty, he never did anything illegal.
But the police ignored his roar and shrugged.
"I'm just following the procedure."
Seeing that there was no point in arguing, Kevin calmed down a bit.
"… Okay, I'll contact the embassy. How do I get to the embassy in Coro City?"
"I'm very sorry, sir. Pannu Islands currently does not have an embassy. If you need help from your country's embassy, I suggest you move to Australia's embassy. " The police didn't lie to him. Xin's tourists only increased recently. The embassies of various countries were still in negotiations. Currently, there were only seven established embassies: Hua, UA, England, France, Russia, Australia, and New Zealand. Among them, the embassy staff of four countries were still on their way.
“What The Fuck？！ You mean I took a two-hour flight and now I have to go to Australia to get a new passport?! "Kevin completely exploded.
"That's right, sir. We can help you with the ticket. So now, please return to the departure hall, "the police said sternly while trying to hold back his laughter.
[Blame yourself for offending someone you shouldn't have. Who asked you to be blind?] He had been a police officer for many years and experienced two political changes, but it was the first time he heard of Xin having an immigration blacklist.
But since that person said there was, then there must be.
