BXBX NOVEL Chapter 264 - 264: Boarding
Jiang An wasn’t worried. Although she usually didn’t pay much attention to Si Cheng, she knew that he was currently being attacked from both sides. He was in a hurry to get married so that he could tie the Bai family down and gain benefits. How could he have the time to pester her?
However, these were all Jiang Zhen’s good intentions. Jiang An smiled. “Alright, if I need your help, I won’t stand on ceremony.”
Just after nine o’clock, the group arrived at the airport. The bodyguards went to check in the luggage, and Jiang An said goodbye to Jiang Zhen.
Jiang An said to the two children, “Little Feather, Little Wingsy, say goodbye to Uncle.”
The two of them waved their hands and said goodbye in a childish voice, “Goodbye, Uncle.”
Jiang Yu even blew a kiss. Ever since she learned it recently, she liked to show off.
Jiang Yi glanced at his sister’s childish actions in disdain. Then, he retracted his gaze and shook his head. The uncle in front of him looked at his mother the same way his father looked at his mother.
Didn’t this mean that this uncle wanted to be their father, but his sister foolishly went to get close to him? If his mother really liked this uncle and changed his father, he wanted to see how his sister would react.
Jiang Yi was annoyed by Jiang Yu, but he did not notice that the way he addressed Zou Bai had already subconsciously changed.
Jiang An glanced at the time on her phone. It was already past nine. Worried that Zou Bai had already set off, she suppressed her anxiety and said with a smile, “I’ll contact you when I get to Lin City. You can go back first. Thank you for today. Be careful on the way.”
Jiang Zhen could tell that Jiang An was anxious. As it was almost time to board the plane, he didn’t think too much about it and replied with a faint smile, “You’re welcome. 1 wish you a safe journey. Hurry up and go in to wait for the plane.”
Jiang An led her men into the waiting room. As soon as she sat down, she hurriedly took out her phone and called Zou Bai.
Zou Bai had just gotten into the car. When he saw Jiang An’s call, he thought that she was rushing him. He smiled and picked up the phone. “Don’t worry. We’ll set off now. 1 guarantee that I’ll be there by 10.1 won’t delay your schedule.”
Jiang An hurriedly stopped him. “Zou Bai, you don’t have to come to my house. I’m already at the airport.”
Zou Bai was stunned for a moment. “Your flight is at 12 o’clock. Why did you go so early?”
Jiang An laughed dryly. “I remembered wrongly. The plane takes off at ten o’clock. This morning, my agent called me to wake me up. Only then did I know the right time.”
“I was in a hurry and forgot to tell you. I just remembered when 1 arrived at the airport. Turn around and go to work.”
Jiang An finished what she wanted to say in one breath. She was afraid that Zou Bai would notice something if she was interrupted midway.
Zou Bai narrowed his eyes and didn’t say anything. Zou Yi didn’t know what the conversation was about, so he started the car and drove out of the house according to the original plan.
Zou Bai didn’t issue any new orders. There was a short silence on the phone.
Jiang An listened to the silent phone and felt a little uneasy. Thinking that she had lied first, she braced herself and apologized in a low voice, “Zou Bai, I’m sorry. I got the time wrong.”
Zou Bai’s cold voice came through, “It’s okay, as long as you’re on time now.”
There was no emotion in Zou Bai’s voice. Jiang An couldn’t figure out his current mood, but she could imagine that Zou Bai was probably very unhappy.
Jiang An said with a smile, trying to fool him. “Don’t be angry. I’ll definitely figure out the time next time before telling you. I really didn’t do it on purpose this time.”
Zou Bai snorted, “You want to do it again?”
Jiang An quickly replied, “No, no. This is the last time. When we meet again, I’ll definitely make up for it.”
Zou Bai’s ice-cold expression finally became slightly better. “Regardless of whether you did it intentionally or unintentionally, the result now is that I was stood up by you. You have to think carefully about your way of apologizing. If you’re not sincere enough… I won’t accept it.”
Through the phone, Jiang An felt Zou Bai’s attitude soften. She heaved a sigh of relief. She had coaxed him enough.
Jiang An chuckled and said, “No problem. I’ll definitely be sincere!”
“Attention, passengers on the Beijing A5538 flight to Sea City at 10am, please board at gate Al.” The announcement sounded in the departure hall.
Zou Bai heard the announcement, “Hurry up and board the plane. Call me when you get there.”
Jiang An looked at the boarding gate through the glass of the VIP lounge. There was already a long queue. She replied, “Alright, we’ll talk later..”
