Qin Sheng had just hung up the phone with Xu Xiao when she received a WeChat message.

Xiao Dao: [I've arrived at Tiandu Airport and am currently waiting to board. I'll arrive at Ancheng Airport in two hours. Can you come pick me up?]

Qin Sheng: [?]

Xiao Dao: [This is to offset the three hours of wages you owe me last time.]

Qin Sheng: [Send the flight information]

Xi Fangzhou took the plane ticket from his assistant, took a picture with a blank expression, and sent it over, emphasizing: 【No refund for late arrivals】

Qin Sheng: [Talkative]

Xi Fangzhou: "..."

Fine, can't he just shut up?

Xi Fangzhou, meanwhile, was secretly glancing at his assistant who had been watching the whole thing: "..."

Tsk, what a classic case of one thing subduing another.

That's it.

When faced with a boss like Shifang who was even more arrogant, impatient, and irritable than him, even the Divine Blade Master had to back down.

Just then, Xi Fangzhou's phone rang again.

He glanced at the caller ID, a hint of impatience flashing across his face: "What is it?"

His tone was incredibly irritable.

His third uncle on the other end was so startled he almost couldn't speak. It wasn't until he heard the other person say, "I'll hang up if there's nothing else," that he came to his senses and quickly asked, "I heard you went back to China. Which city did you go to?"

Xi Fangzhou answered impatiently, "Ancheng."

Uncle Xi San immediately showed his delight: "Ancheng, that's perfect. Your little cousin just transferred to a school over there. He just had his closing ceremony yesterday and he's still there. I'll have him go pick you up and help you out."

"China has developed very rapidly in recent years, and many places have changed dramatically. You haven't been back for several years, so you're probably not familiar with Ancheng. I'll have Xiaoyi..."

Uncle Xi Santang was still talking, but Xi Fangzhou had already lost patience.

Just then, the boarding announcement came on, and he interrupted him, saying, "No need, I have a friend over there who will come to pick me up."

"Boarding, that's it."

Before the other party could say anything more, he hung up the phone and turned it off.

Uncle Xi San looked at the phone that had been hung up, his gaze shifting for a moment. After thinking for a while, he still made a call to Xi Fangyi: "Your eldest cousin has gone to Ancheng. He should be at the airport in about two hours. Go to the airport and pick him up."

After a day of calming down, Xi Fangyi had accepted the fact that Xi Fangzhou was coming to Ancheng. Therefore, upon hearing this, he was more excited than nervous and immediately replied, "Okay!"

Turning to her, she continued, "Do you have flight information? Which terminal should I wait at?"

At this moment, Xi Santangbo's men had already found the flight information for Tiandu to Ancheng at this time. He glanced at the phone handed to him and said, "T1 terminal, arriving at 18:15, that should be about right before we head over."

He emphasized, "Don't be late."

Xi Fangyi nodded repeatedly: "Don't worry, I'm getting ready to go out now."

Qin Sheng hadn't left the house all day, and was still wearing her pajamas.

After estimating the time, she helped Xi Fangzhou book a room at a hotel near Mo's International, then changed her clothes and went out with Mo Huang.

Gu Yueming saw it, looked away from the TV, and asked, "Where are you going?"

Qin Sheng slipped into the little leather shoes her mother had just bought for her yesterday and replied, "Picking someone up."

Gu Yueming immediately sat up from the sofa, gripping the back of the sofa with both hands, and craning her neck to ask, "Who are you picking up? Does Mom know them?"

Qin Sheng thought for a moment and asked, "Do you know them?"

“The surgeon who performed the last surgery on my grandfather said he’s in Ancheng and asked me to pick him up.”

Oh, that one.

Gu Yueming was right next to Qin Sheng at the time and saw Xi Fangzhou on her computer.

In my memory, he was a very handsome young man.

Her eyes lit up, and she said enthusiastically, "Speaking of your grandfather's matter last time, we haven't properly thanked him yet. Since he's come all the way to Ancheng, why don't we invite him over for a meal so your dad can thank him properly?"

That's too much trouble.

Moreover...

Qin Sheng glanced at Mo Huang, who had already taken out his phone and was ready to go, her brow twitched, and she said calmly, "My friend is timid and shy, so let's not go. I'll take him to the hotel and come back in a bit."

Gu Yueming, without suspecting anything, gave a regretful reply and shrank back.

Qin Sheng felt her mother's attitude was strange, so after thinking for a moment, she sent her father a message: "Mom seems quite interested in young men lately, keep an eye on her."

Gu Yueming, who simply couldn't stand the dog surnamed Fu taking advantage of her underage daughter and was already preparing to look for outstanding young men outside, knew nothing of this.

I almost cried from being bullied until that night...

Qin Sheng skillfully sowed discord between her parents' marriage, then leisurely went out.

When Qin Sheng arrived at the airport, it was two minutes to six, and there were still 17 minutes until her flight was due. So she found a quiet corner and started playing games.

Tomorrow is the beginning of spring, and the weather has been gradually warming up these past few days.

Although the sun didn't come out today, the temperature wasn't very low.

Qin Sheng wore a khaki pleated maxi dress that just reached her knees, with a matching vest over it, and a light down jacket on top.

Yes, her son, Da Mingming, even thoughtfully bought her a gray and white checkered tie.

It has a strong campus atmosphere and is incredibly cute and playful.

Of course, we have to ignore the girl's expressionless face.

There were quite a few people in the airport, and from the moment Qin Sheng appeared, many people kept looking in her direction.

Young men are the majority, in particular.

He was tempted to approach her and strike up a conversation, but when he met her cool gaze and her aura that kept strangers at bay, he inexplicably became timid.

I have a feeling he's not someone to mess with.

Some were too scared to step forward, while others were incredibly audacious.

A man who looked to be around twenty-five or twenty-six years old and had a fairly decent appearance waited for a while. After confirming that Qin Sheng was alone, he finally straightened his clothes, got up, and walked over.

Just as the killing was in full swing, Qin Sheng felt a shadow fall over her head, and then she heard a very polite greeting: "Is this seat taken? May I sit here?"

It refers to the position to Qin Sheng's right.

Qin Sheng didn't even look up, and said in a cold voice, "No."

The man's expression stiffened for a moment, but he quickly regained his smile.

He tightened his coat and sat down in the seat next to Qin Sheng.

Qin Sheng's expression became even more indifferent.

The man had seen Qin Sheng playing games earlier, and now that he sat down, he immediately smiled and said, "Playing King of Glory? I've played this game too. It's quite fun, but it's a bit too easy. I only played for a week and reached Diamond rank before uninstalling it."

He then leaned closer, seemingly out of curiosity, and asked, "Little girl, what's your skill level?"

Airport seats are not very spacious to begin with, and when he leaned forward like that, a strong smell of tobacco immediately filled his nostrils.
