Chen Sisi was surprised for a long time, and then asked Wu Nanxing who was packing things in the room: "Nanxing, Director Chen is your brother, why haven't I heard you say it? Are you hiding it too deeply?"
Wu Nanxing turned around and smiled and said: "Sister Sisi, Brother Chen is not my biological brother. Don't get me wrong."
I immediately said to her: "Her father is my adoptive father, that's all."
It took a long time for Chen Sisi to react. She nodded and said to me hurriedly: "Director Chen, I'll get you a glass of water."
"Don't bother, we'll be leaving soon."
Seeing that she was a little at a loss, I said to her again: "It's okay, just relax. It's not like you don't have to call me Director Chen in the company. You can just call me Brother Chen like Nan Xing."
She was a little afraid to look at me and smiled shyly.
I said to her again: "It's okay, it's really okay. Just leave me alone and do whatever you want."
She really didn't dare to look at me, so she had to go to Wu Nanxing's room to help her clean up. The two little girls were still whispering there.
I didn't eavesdrop on their conversation, I came to the living room and sat down by myself.
After waiting for a while, Wu Nanxing came out with a few packages and said to me: "Brother Chen, it's okay."
I stood up, took the packages from her hands, and turned to Chen Sisi and said, "Then let's leave first. You can rest in peace and recuperate."
"Well, Mr. Chen, walk slowly. Look, you haven't even taken a sip of the water."
"Don't say that. I'm not thirsty either. Okay, don't give me away. Go back and lie down."
She still stood at the door and watched us go downstairs.
After Wu Nanxing and I returned to the car, I asked her: "This Chen Sisi is quite interesting!"
"Well, she is quite nice. When I first went to the company, no one talked to me, so she took the initiative to talk to me and tell me what to do."
"You and she are both receptionists now, right?"
"Well, Sister Sisi also taught me a lot and asked me to speak some simple English."
"That's good. Do you like English?"
"I like it! I used to learn a few classes when I was in school, but our school only focused on Chinese and mathematics, and it disappeared after a few classes."
I was silent for a while and then said to her: "If you like it, I will sign you up for a training class when you come back this time."
"Now that I'm so old, isn't it hard to learn?"
I smiled and said, "If you want to learn, it's never too late. Interest is the biggest teacher."
"That's okay."
I said to her again: "Oh, by the way Nanxing, we may not be able to return to your hometown until tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. I bought a ticket to Jiangcheng. I want to go there to do some errands."
"Well, then shall I come with you?"
"Let's go together. You can just wait for me at the hotel then."
"good."
…
After arriving at the airport, I first went through the check-in procedures, and then went to help Wu Nanxing check in her luggage.
After passing the security check, I called Ye Qian and told her that I would be boarding the plane in half an hour.
While waiting for the plane, Wu Nanxing nervously told me that this was her first time flying.
Then I remembered that the last time I took her to Chongqing, we took the high-speed rail.
I smiled and said to her: "It's okay, the plane is still very safe."
"Then if you fly to the sky, can you see everything underground?" she asked curiously.
"It depends on the weather. If the weather is good, you can see it. If the weather is bad, it will be all clouds."
"I'm excited and nervous right now."
I smiled again and said, "I'm going to experience it right away. You will know after taking it once. In fact, some flights are not as comfortable as high-speed rail. The seats are so narrow that you can't sit on them at all."
"And our flight too?"
"I don't know, but whatever it is, our seats are business class and the seats are quite spacious."
As we chatted, we quickly checked in and boarded the plane. Wu Nanxing followed closely behind me. We lined up to check in and then followed the crowd onto the plane.
Because we are in business class, there will be a flight attendant to guide us to our seats when we get on the plane.
Wu Nanxing's seat was right next to mine. Since it was her first time to fly, I specially asked her to sit in the window seat.
After sitting down, she stared outside the small window, her eyes full of excitement like a child.
Looking at her also reminded me of the first time I took a plane.
It was when I was reporting to the university. I took the thousands of dollars my mother had earned from selling chickens and ducks and boarded the plane heading north.
At that time, I was just like Wu Nanxing now, looking out the window with excitement and expectation, thinking about what I would see and what I would feel after the plane took off.
Later, I flew more and more often, and I lost the excitement I felt the first time. I spent more time closing my eyes and relaxing.
After the plane started taxiing, Wu Nanxing seemed to be even more nervous. She looked at me for a while and then looked out the window.
Until the plane took off, her expression was exactly like the first time I took a plane. The unknown excitement and nervousness were all written on her face.
After the plane passed through the clouds and started flying smoothly, I asked her: "How do you feel? Do your ears hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt, just a little stuffy."
"Haha, this is normal. Some people may experience ear tingling, but it only lasts for a while when it rises and falls."
"So this is what flying feels like! It's so amazing." She said and looked out the window again, but it was already completely white.
"When you fly often in the future, you will get used to it and it will feel the same as riding in a car."
"There is still a difference. Riding in a car will always be bumpy, but not on an airplane, right?"
Before she could finish her words, the plane started to tremble.
The broadcast also began to remind: "Dear passengers, our plane is affected by the airflow on the route and has obvious turbulence. Please sit in your seat and fasten your seat belt."
This frightened Wu Nanxing so much that she clutched the seat handle tightly with a look of fear on her face.
I smiled and said to her: "Look, the plane is also bumpy."
"why?"
"Air flow!"
"Oh, it's a little scary."
"It's okay, you just get used to it."
This little girl has always been very excited. Even though the window was completely white and she couldn't see anything, she still kept staring outside.
In less than two hours, the plane began to land.
Descending below the clouds, the city began to appear before our eyes.
Wu Nanxing pointed out the window in surprise and said to me: "Brother Chen, look, you can see it now."
"Well, it's landing soon."
"These houses are so small! They look densely packed."
Some passengers next to me were amused. I believe everyone must be the same when they take a plane for the first time.
After the plane landed and taxied, and gradually stabilized, the signal on the mobile phone was restored.
I called Ye Qian immediately and told her that we had arrived and were about to get off the plane.
She told me that she was waiting for me at the flight exit and that I would see her when I came out.
