Ma Xiong called in person. He said apologetically, "Xia Sheng, I'm really sorry. There's an emergency at the company. We have to fly directly back to Hong Kong. I've already booked a flight for you and Youyou back to Sanshan City in the afternoon. I'm really sorry!"
Xia Ruofei quickly said, "It's okay, Mr. Ma. Is your company's business urgent?"
Ma Xiong smiled and said, "It's okay. It's still under control. I'll have to trouble you and Youyou to take the civil plane …"
"What does it matter?" Xia Ruofei said, "Actually, we can book the tickets ourselves. You can go back directly if you have an emergency."
"I've already arranged for someone to book it. The hotel's car will take you directly to the airport in a while!" Ma Xiong said with a hearty smile.
His voice was very calm. It seemed that although the company's business was urgent, he still had a card up his sleeve. Moreover, they were a world-class consortium. Even if there was any trouble that they couldn't solve, Xia Ruofei couldn't help much. So, he didn't ask much.
At this time, Ma Xiong said again, "About Blake, I've already discussed it with a few friends. After returning to Hong Kong, we'll continue to follow up. I'll let you know if there's any news."
Xia Ruofei saw that Ma Xiong didn't forget this small matter when he had an emergency. He was a little touched in his heart.
He said, "Mr. Ma, it's important that you deal with the company's business. You don't have to worry about this!"
"Haha! I, Ma Xiong, never give up halfway! "Ma Xiong laughed heartily." You don't have to worry about this. Just wait for my news! "
"Okay, Mr. Ma. Thank you!" Xia Ruofei said.
Not long after hanging up the phone, the private butler of the presidential suite came to the room and respectfully informed Xia Ruofei that the car to take him to the airport had been arranged. He could leave now.
So, Xia Ruofei went straight downstairs.
Xia Ruofei's personal butler had already completed the check-out procedures. When he left the presidential suite, he only needed to sign his name. As for his simple luggage, someone would naturally help him carry it downstairs.
When they arrived at the first floor, the Rolls-Royce Phantom was already parked at the entrance of the hotel. The private butler opened the door for Xia Ruofei. After Xia Ruofei got into the car, she opened the door of the passenger seat and got in as well.
The Rolls-Royce Phantom started up and drove directly to Hongqiao International Airport.
At the entrance of the airport departure hall, a black Mercedes-Benz sedan had just arrived.
The private butler opened the door for Xia Ruofei. When Xia Ruofei lowered his head and got out of the Rolls-Royce Phantom, he saw Lu You coming out of the Mercedes-Benz next to it.
"Lu You!" Xia Ruofei greeted her with a smile.
Lu You also saw Xia Ruofei at the same time. Her mouth twitched slightly and she nodded gently in response to Xia Ruofei.
Xia Ruofei was also used to Lu You's attitude. He just smiled and didn't take it to heart.
The private butler handed Xia Ruofei's luggage from the trunk to Lu You's entourage. Then, he respectfully said goodbye to Xia Ruofei and left.
Ma Xiong's entourage took their luggage and led them into the airport departure hall.
They asked for Xia Ruofei's and Lu You's ID cards and went straight to the VIP check-in counter to check in.
Xia Ruofei and Lu You stood aside and waited. Xia Ruofei wanted to find something to talk about, but Lu You kept her head down and played with her phone. She didn't want to talk to Xia Ruofei. Xia Ruofei didn't want to ask for a snub.
Since both of them only had carry-on luggage, they didn't need to go through check-in procedures. So, the entourage quickly got their boarding passes.
A uniformed staff led Xia Ruofei and Lu You directly through the VIP passage through the security check.
The entourage could only send them to the security check and waved goodbye to the two.
When Xia Ruofei saw Lu You saying goodbye to the staff of Hengfeng Group, he smiled and was quite polite.
The ground server led the two of them to the VIP lounge, then politely bid farewell and left.
There were only three to five people in the empty VIP lounge. Lu You pushed her suitcase and found a seat far away from Xia Ruofei. She sat down and continued to play with her phone.
Xia Ruofei shook his head with a wry smile. He didn't know how he had offended this girl. He felt that Lu You's attitude towards him seemed to have improved a lot some time ago. Why did she change her attitude now?
A girl's mind was really hard to guess.
Monica was like that, and so was Lu You …
Xia Ruofei naturally wouldn't ask for a snub. He found a seat nearby and sat down. He took out a book from his suitcase and read while waiting to board the plane.
The two of them hadn't spoken a word since they met at the entrance of the airport hall. The atmosphere was weird and awkward.
After waiting for more than 20 minutes in the quiet VIP lounge, Xia Ruofei's flight began to board.
So Xia Ruofei put the book back into the small suitcase and walked to the boarding gate with the boarding pass in his hand.
Xia Ruofei saw Lu You coming over with her suitcase, but he didn't stop to wait. Instead, he took the boarding pass and walked onto the covered bridge through the boarding gate. Since Lu You didn't want to talk to him, he naturally wouldn't rush to please her.
Xia Ruofei didn't look at the boarding pass carefully just now. When he arrived at the cabin, he realized that Ma Xiong had booked a first-class ticket for him. No wonder it was much earlier than the normal boarding time. When he arrived at the cabin door, there was immediately a first-class flight attendant who served him and led him to the first-class cabin.
Xia Ruofei took out the book he wanted to read on the trip and then stuffed the small suitcase into the upper luggage compartment.
The first-class seat was very spacious, and Xia Ruofei got a seat by the window. After he sat down, he adjusted the angle of the seat and found the most comfortable position. He leaned on the seat and casually flipped through the book.
At this time, Xia Ruofei felt a fragrant wind into his nostrils. He turned his head and saw Lu You coming over under the guidance of the flight attendant.
Lu You's seat was actually next to Xia Ruofei's.
Xia Ruofei thought about it and felt relieved. Their tickets were booked together, and the boarding passes were changed by the same person. Their seats must be connected.
Seeing that Xia Ruofei's seat was next to hers, Lu You didn't say anything. She just frowned slightly, then put the luggage away and sat quietly next to Xia Ruofei to play with her phone.
One of them was reading a book, and the other was looking at her phone. Neither of them said anything.
About half an hour after boarding, the passengers in the economy class also boarded and the cabin door closed.
After waiting for a little while, the plane began to taxi out.
As the plane moved forward on the taxiway, Xia Ruofei put the book aside, leaned back in the chair, and closed his eyes to rest.
Soon, the plane entered the runway, accelerated, and took off.
When the plane was still climbing at a higher angle, Xia Ruofei opened his eyes. From the corner of his eye, he saw that Lu You's phone screen was still on.
Xia Ruofei couldn't help but turn his head and remind her in a low voice, "Lu You, turn off your phone during the flight …"
Xia Ruofei was halfway through his sentence when his expression changed. He saw that Lu You was not playing with her phone. Instead, her face was pale and her brows were slightly furrowed as she leaned against the chair. She even had a pained expression on her face.
