After Fang Jianjin washed the dishes and cleaned up the kitchen, she suddenly remembered that she had promised Jian Xiu to get her glasses the next morning.
She was so scared that she immediately ran back to the bedroom, picked up her cell phone from the bed, and carefully looked at the time for tomorrow's airport drop-off. Only then did she breathe a sigh of relief.
Tomorrow Hang Xingyi's flight is at 8:03, and she and Jian Xiu have an appointment at 10 o'clock. Hang Xingyi's house is only more than ten minutes away from her home. It will take half an hour to get to the airport without traffic jams, so she will definitely be able to return.
Thinking of this, she breathed a sigh of relief.
But then, she suddenly sat up from her bed, grabbed her cell phone and stared with wide eyes.
"No way? An 8 o'clock flight? How early do I have to get up then?"
Then, Fang Jianjin saw the time her mother had agreed upon for her and Hang Xingyi - half past six!
"No way, it's finally the weekend tomorrow!" she wailed.
The meeting time is 6:30, so she has to get up, pack, wash, and drive there. Doesn't that mean she has to get up at 6:00 at the latest?
Oh my God!
How could she be so cruel as to have to get up an hour and a half earlier than usual for work?
But she had already agreed on the terms with her mother, and for Xiaobai, she had no choice but to accept her fate.
"Ah!" She howled, and then collapsed completely on the bed.

The next day, Fang Jianjin lingered in bed until five past six before getting up. In order not to be late, she quickly got dressed, washed up, packed up briefly, and went out.
"Meow!" Diandian arched her calf when she was changing shoes.
Fang Jianjin touched it, then took the car keys, picked up the bag and hurried out the door.
After getting in the car, she immediately sent a text message to Hang Xingyi according to the contact information given by her mother.
"I'm leaving. I expect to be downstairs at your house in ten minutes."
She really didn't know what to say on the phone. After all, they hadn't seen each other for so many years, it would be so embarrassing.
The other party quickly replied with one word: OK.
"It's really concise and to the point." Fang Jianjin complained, then started the car.
Ten minutes later, she arrived at Lvyuan Community and parked her car downstairs of Hang Xingyi's building.
I glanced at my phone and saw that there were still three minutes until half past.
As soon as I looked towards the apartment building, I saw a tall man in a suit pushing a black suitcase out of the entrance hall.
"Hang Xingyi?" Fang Jianjin called out tentatively.
The man looked towards her when he heard the sound, then walked closer and asked, "Fang Jianjin?"
"It's me." Fang Jianjin said, pulled the handbrake, pressed the trunk opening button, and immediately unbuckled his seat belt and got out of the car.
The man had already walked to the rear of the car. Fang Jianjin opened the trunk door, and he put his luggage in the trunk himself.
"Thank you for your hard work." said the man.
Fang Jianjin looked up and saw that the man was meticulously groomed and his hair had obviously been carefully sprayed. She suddenly felt that she seemed to be a little miserable in contrast without makeup.
But she rarely wears makeup, so she soon felt relieved.
"You're welcome," she replied.
Although it was a little awkward when the two met for the first time, it had to be said that the method Fang's mother came up with was indeed more natural than sitting in a cafe for a blind date.
Moreover, Hang Xingyi is also good-looking, the type who has inherited the best qualities of his parents.
She pondered inwardly, then said, "Hold on tight, we're off."
The man had just fastened his seat belt. He tilted his head to look at her and couldn't help but ask, "Sit tight? Aren't you driving steadily?"
"Well, that's what I said." Fang Jianjin smiled awkwardly.
But the man replied: "She's a female driver, so I can understand."
I don’t understand you!
What happened to the female driver?
Fang Jianjin gritted her teeth and maintained an awkward yet polite smile, but inwardly she couldn't help but criticize him. Then she couldn't help but defend the female driver: "The latest big data shows that the accident rate of female drivers is far lower than that of male drivers."
"Oh, really?"
yes!
Fang Jianjin gritted his teeth, feeling that this conversation was simply... hehe!
Soon, the car left the community and after driving for a while, it got on the overpass.
The speed limit on the elevated highway was 80 km/h. It was still early and it was the weekend, so there were few cars on the road. Fang Jianjin drove at around 80 km/h. She had always been a steady driver, which was recognized by her father, relatives and friends.
Hang Xing turned his head and saw her focused expression, he raised his eyebrows slightly, and the atmosphere in the car became a little subtle.
This subtle feeling continued until we got off the airport highway.
After entering Airport Road, Hang Xingyi finally spoke up, "You drive pretty steadily."
"Really?" Fang Jianjin just responded coldly.
However, thinking that Hang Xingyi had taken the initiative to start the conversation, and she was also shouldering the task of blind dating given by her mother, and they were almost at their destination, it would be better not to make things too awkward, so it would be better to end it quickly.
So she said directly: "My parents and Uncle Hang asked me to take you to the airport. I guess you understand, it's to set us up on a blind date."
Hang Xingyi was a little stunned: "So... direct?"
"You can be direct, why beat around the bush? Let me start. I'm 26, I went to provincial university for undergraduate and graduate studies, graduated two years ago, and now I work at the provincial daily newspaper, from nine to five. The salary isn't high, but it's stable, and I don't have any bad habits. Also—"
The man suddenly laughed.
Fang Jianjin turned his head and glanced at him, then quickly looked straight ahead, but couldn't continue.
The man finally stopped smiling and said, "I know all this. My parents have already told me. I believe your parents have also told you about my situation, right?"
Fang Jianjin nodded when he heard this, then drove the car onto the second-floor airport expressway and began looking for a place to park.
After spotting an opening, she immediately drove in, and when she stopped, she couldn't help but tilt her head and asked, "By the way, one more thing, I like cats and dogs, do you like them too?"
"Cat?" The man frowned, then sneezed uncontrollably.
"A-choo!"
Because it was too sudden, the sneeze hit Fang Jianjin directly in the face.
Fang Jianjin suddenly: "..."
