Shanghai Hongqiao International Airport, VIP lounge.
"Lalala!" While waiting for the plane to depart, Xi Xi was so excited that she couldn't sit still. The little girl ran around the VIP lounge. No one played with her, so the little girl entertained herself. She was humming a tune that came from nowhere. Sometimes, she would watch TV, and sometimes, she would look at what the waitresses were doing. She was as happy as a bird that had escaped from its cage.
Yang Yi sat beside Murphy and watched from afar. He only interfered when Xi Xi might disturb others. However, this little girl, who was as cute as an angel, didn't make a fuss. The other guests in the VIP lounge all smiled kindly at her.
This was the first time that he had brought Tong Tong on a plane. Yang Yi had consulted the airline company and bought a direct flight from Shanghai to Sydney. This way, they could minimize the number of take-offs and landings. At other times, flying was no problem for the four-month-old Tong Tong.
Even if they were in first class, there would still be delays … Their flight was delayed for an hour. Fortunately, Yang Yi had bought a first class ticket. They could eat buffet food in the VIP lounge and wait leisurely.
Finally, the ground service girl who had come to confirm the flight information came to inform them that it was time to board the plane!
Yang Yi called Xi Xi back. The little girl held her father's hand and became more excited. She chattered, "Papa, now that we're on the plane, will we arrive soon?"
Fortunately, Yang Yi was very patient. He patiently explained to Xi Xi, "There's still a long way to go. It'll take more than ten hours. It'll take about half a day."
…
The first class ticket that Yang Yi had bought was a little different from the ordinary first class. It was called Box First Class. As the name implied, it was a small box with good privacy!
There were only eight Box First Class seats on the entire plane. Yang Yi had bought three tickets …
Compared to the economy cabin, it was obviously much more spacious. There was no overhead luggage rack, so he didn't have to worry about hitting his head due to the small space inside the two-story plane. The economy class seats were arranged in a 3-4-3 arrangement, while the private rooms were arranged in a 1-2-1 arrangement. The amount of space each person could occupy could naturally be seen through the comparison.
Since they were a family, Yang Yi bought two seats in the middle and one on the right. The partition in the middle could be lowered so that Xi Xi could sit next to her mother without worrying about feeling insecure.
After boarding the plane through the special passage, Yang Yi and Murphy were still talking to the stewardess. They wanted the stewardess to bring back the small carry-on luggage that they had just placed in the luggage compartment in front of them. (Of course, the larger luggage was checked in) Because the carry-on luggage contained some necessary baby products such as Tong Tong. At this moment, Xi Xi was already playing on her seat out of curiosity.
Xi Xi pulled on the door of the private room. There were two gates. When one was pulled, the other would automatically close. It was as if she had found a magical mechanism. The little girl let out a soft exclamation of surprise.
Humans were always very curious. The more magical the mechanism, the more it would attract people's desire to explore it!
Xi Xi was like that now. She pulled the door open again and sat on the chair. She shook her little feet in boredom. After a while, she looked at the row of buttons on the table inside the seat. There was a joystick handle among them!
What is this?
Questions arose in the little girl's mind.
Xi Xi couldn't help but try pressing it. She didn't know which one she pressed. Suddenly, the table beside her slowly flipped up!
When it started to move, the little girl was shocked. She thought that she had broken something. She hurriedly stood up from her seat and stood aside helplessly.
"What's the matter?" Her father's voice suddenly sounded from behind. Xi Xi was shocked again.
The stewardess was very nimble. She had already helped to retrieve it. She even taught Murphy to feed Tong Tong some water or milk from a milk bottle when the plane took off. It was the same principle as adults chewing gum to prevent ear discomfort. Yang Yi didn't have anything to do, so he came over to see what Xi Xi was doing.
The little girl felt that she had done something wrong, and she had been discovered! After getting a shock, she lowered her little head in embarrassment.
However, perhaps she still felt that her father wasn't looking at her, so she secretly raised her head. Her big, bright eyes looked at her father evasively. In the end, when her eyes met with her father's smiling eyes, she lowered her head in a panic.
Yang Yi was amused. He patted Xi Xi's head and smiled. "Come, sit down. Let's see how these things are controlled!"
Seeing that her father wasn't angry, Xi Xi breathed a sigh of relief. Her interest in exploring was rekindled. This time, she wanted to explore with her father. After the little girl sat down, she looked at her father eagerly.
The seat was quite spacious. Xi Xi's little butt didn't take up much space, so Yang Yi sat beside Xi Xi. The two of them squeezed and sat down. He took out an instruction manual from the newspaper and magazine folder near the door. "Look, there's an instruction manual here."
Then, Yang Yi found the right button and put the upended table back. This way, the space was spacious again!
"This TV can still be watched." Yang Yi found the button and turned on the LCD screen directly opposite him. The LCD screen was embedded in the board of the private room, and it was at the top of the small sofa at the foot. It was very far away, so Yang Yi didn't have to worry about Xi Xi's eyesight being affected by the TV.
However, it wasn't accurate to say that it was a TV. To be precise, it was an on-board entertainment system that could be controlled through the control panel. The joystick could also be used as a mouse!
"I want to see the ugly bunny!" Xi Xi said happily as she shook her father's arm when she saw that the "TV" was turned on.
However, this newly aired cartoon wasn't available. Yang Yi searched for a while and found that there were many movies and TV series, but there were only a few cartoons for children to watch.
The father and daughter didn't know how long they explored until the stewardess came over and told Yang Yi to sit tight, as the plane was about to take off!
Yang Yi fastened the seat belt for Xi Xi and went to check on Murphy. Tong Tong didn't have any big reaction. The little boy was in his mother's arms, and his eyes were wide open. Because the partition was down, he was curiously watching his father and sister fiddling with the shiny screen!
It wasn't as troublesome as imagined. During the takeoff, Tong Tong bit the pacifier of his milk bottle and drank warm water. He was very calm until the flight stabilized.
Finally, he could move. The stewardess came over and poured a glass of Apple Juice for Murphy. She looked at Tong Tong and said with a smile, "He's so obedient, and he's as cute as his sister!"
"Sister said you're a good baby, good baby!" Murphy smiled and reached out to touch Tong Tong's soft little face to tease him.
The little boy even grinned, revealing two beautiful little dimples.
Xi Xi couldn't wait to call her father over and continued to explore the mechanisms with her father.
"Look, how long are your father's legs?" Yang Yi whispered to Xi Xi.
Yang Yi sat on the sofa, stretched out his legs, and firmly placed them on the small sofa with two pillows. Needless to say, the space in the middle was very big, and people who weren't tall enough couldn't reach the sofa with their buttocks full of seats.
Xi Xi giggled. She also lifted her long legs, but there was no place for her to put them, so she put them on her father's knees.
This simple happiness made the little girl smile so much that her eyes narrowed into two crescent moons.
