Chapter 72 Departure from the Airport
When Jiang Ning was heading to the airport, Huo Miao and Huo Ziheng were also preparing to go to the airport.
Unlike Jiang Ning who took a taxi directly to the airport, Huo Miao and Huo Ziheng were driven to the airport by Huo Li, and they were accompanied by Huo's mother Zhang Qionghua who also sent them to the airport.
As an artist in the entertainment industry, Huo Miao should have been accompanied by an assistant and an agent when she traveled. However, the program crew didn't know what was going on. Not only did they broadcast live 24 hours a day, they also didn't allow any artist to bring an agent or assistant.
Along the way, Zhang Qionghua worriedly told Huo Ziheng, "I heard this variety show is quite dangerous. Second brother, you must control your temper after you are on the show and help Miaomiao more."
"Mom, don't worry, I know what to do." Huo Ziheng said. He had no interest in the entertainment industry, and had no intention of getting involved in it.
If Huo Miao hadn't mentioned it, he wouldn't have participated in this variety show. But since he has participated, he will of course protect Huo Miao and try to get more exposure for her.
Zhang Qionghua nodded with satisfaction.
Huo Li, who was driving, suddenly said, "After seeing Jiang Ning this time, ask her to call me."
As soon as the words "Jiang Ning" came out, the originally harmonious and warm atmosphere in the car seemed to be frozen, and the faces of the three people were all choked.
Huo Ziheng frowned instantly and said unhappily, "Brother, do you mean that I should take the initiative to talk to her?"
Huo Li nodded slightly, his handsome features expressionless. He looked straight ahead, his emotions stable, even his voice was cold and without any ups and downs: "We are a family after all. How can she be out there alone?"
As the eldest son of the Huo family, Huo Li did not join his father's company after graduating from university, but chose to start his own business. Over the years, Huo Li's company has performed well.
Some time ago, Huo Li and his team went abroad to look for new customers. They stayed abroad for more than a month. When they came back, they found that one person was missing from the Huo family - Jiang Ning had run away from home.
Huo Li had thought about calling Jiang Ning, but when Jiang Ning blocked all the contact information of the Huo family, she also blocked Huo Li's number.
People rarely contact Jiang Ning on their own initiative, let alone care about her life and circle of friends. After their phone number and WeChat were blocked by Jiang Ning, they realized that they couldn't find Jiang Ning at all.
Hearing Huo Li's words, Huo Miao, who was originally smiling, also changed her expression. A subtle dark light flashed across her eyes. She said sympathetically, "Second brother, don't be angry. Big brother is right. Jiang Ning is your biological sister. Have you forgotten? It was because of my existence that Jiang Ning's position was taken away... How about this, when I see Jiang Ning on the show, I'll go talk to her."
"So many days have passed, Jiang Ning's anger should have subsided a long time ago. I'll go and apologize to her and ask her to move back home."
As soon as Huo Miao said this, Huo Ziheng immediately felt distressed: "Miao Miao, you are not redundant!"
Zhang Qionghua, who was sitting in the passenger seat, glanced at her eldest son with a slightly dissatisfied look and said, "Why are you suddenly talking about this topic?"
Huo Li just remembered that Jiang Ning had just participated in this program, so he said that. Seeing that his words had aroused everyone's dissatisfaction, Huo Li softened his tone and said, "Nothing, I just thought that it was not good for her to be alone outside."
"What's wrong with it? I don't think there's anything wrong with it." Zhang Qionghua couldn't help but retort: "You didn't see how crazy she looked when she came back from the hospital that afternoon. She wasn't at home during this period, and the air at home is fresher than before. And it wasn't us who wanted to drive her away, she left on her own."
"That's right." Huo Ziheng, who was sitting in the back seat, continued, "She is already in her twenties and has already reached adulthood. Do you really want your family to support her for the rest of her life? When you were her age, you would have already started a company to make money."
Huo Miao lowered her head and sat quietly next to Huo Ziheng. She did not participate in the conversation of the three people. She only curled her lips slightly occasionally when Huo Ziheng and Zhang Qionghua belittled Jiang Ning to defend her.
A family of four arrived at the airport.
Huo Miao had a lot of stuff, including three suitcases.
Huo Ziheng, who participated in the variety show with him, only had a suitcase and a backpack.
Huo Miao was carrying a bag, and even with a hat and a mask, her exquisite outfit could still be seen.
Huo Miao and Zhang Qionghua were chatting in the airport lobby, while Huo Ziheng and Huo Li were checking in their suitcases.
Zhang Qionghua carefully reminded Huo Miao of the safety precautions she needed to take when outside, and Huo Miao listened obediently. Although the two were not biological mother and daughter, they seemed to have a better relationship than biological mother and daughter.
With a glance out of the corner of her eye, Huo Miao suddenly spotted a familiar figure.
She was slightly stunned.
Zhang Qionghua was talking to Huo Miao and noticed that she was distracted. She subconsciously raised her head and looked in the direction Huo Miao was looking at: "Miao Miao? What's wrong?"
"I, I think I saw Jiang Ning just now." Huo Miao calmed herself down.
I just glanced casually just now, and saw a girl wearing a hat and sunglasses, dragging a suitcase walking through the crowd. Her profile and figure looked very much like Jiang Ning.
However, it was only a brief moment, and before Huo Miao could see clearly, the other person's figure disappeared among the crowd coming and going.
Zhang Qionghua's face changed when she heard this: "How could she be here?"
But as soon as these words were spoken, Zhang Qionghua and Huo Miao both remembered that Huo Miao and Huo Ziheng's tickets for today were booked by the program crew, and the boarding information was sent to them.
Mu Mingxuan originally planned to board the plane in Beijing, but then something suddenly happened in the company and he had to go on a business trip to Shanghai, so he decided to set off alone from Shanghai to the destination to meet up with everyone.
Jiang Ning is in Beijing and is also a guest on this episode. If the production team booked her flight ticket for convenience, it is not impossible!
Thinking of this, Huo Miao and Zhang Qionghua both felt a little upset.
Huo Li and Huo Ziheng checked in their luggage and walked over to the two of them. Seeing them standing face to face without speaking, Huo Ziheng asked curiously, "Mom, Miaomiao, why are you two standing here?"
Zhang Qionghua frowned slightly: "Nothing..."
Huo Ziheng was very confident, and when he heard Zhang Qionghua say this, he really believed it. On the contrary, Huo Li lowered his head and glanced at Zhang Qionghua and Huo Miao.
Huo Ziheng looked up at the time on his wrist and said to Zhang Qionghua and Huo Li, "It's almost time. Miaomiao and I will go to the terminal. Mom, brother, please go slowly on your way back."
"Got it. You guys go in quickly." Zhang Qionghua nodded, and couldn't help but remind him: "Remember to protect your sister well on the show."
Huo Ziheng naturally agreed: "Don't worry!"
Huo Miao is an insider after all, so even if she dressed very low-key today, she could still be recognized by fans.
After saying goodbye to Zhang Qionghua and Huo Li, Huo Miao and Huo Ziheng swiped their ID cards, passed through the gate and walked into the terminal hall.
Ping An Airport is just one of the many airports in Beijing. Beijing has a large flow of people and the airport's waiting hall is almost overcrowded.
Huo Miao's eyes moved among the crowd intentionally or unintentionally.
Huo Ziheng noticed that she had been looking around and whispered, "Miao Miao, what are you looking for?"
"Nothing." Huo Miao bit her lips lightly and said, "I seemed to see Jiang Ning just now."
"What? Why is she here!" The shock on Huo Ziheng's face was no less than that of Zhang Qionghua just now.
"I'm not sure either. She disappeared before I could see her clearly just now." Huo Miao made up for it.
Although she said this, Huo Ziheng still looked in different directions to find someone.
Of course, this is not because Huo Ziheng cares about Jiang Ning, he just wants to confirm whether this matter is true!
Jiang Ning sat in a relatively secluded place and had no idea that someone was watching her.
She lowered her head and was chatting with someone on her cell phone.
A month of closed live broadcasting meant that Jiang Ning couldn't go to the martial arts hall during this period. Jiang Ning had already told Mu Yun about this when they were sparring yesterday. To Jiang Ning's surprise, someone from the Qi family actually sent a message.
Ji Shuang: Ningning, are you going to join the group today? Come on! I will be watching the live broadcast on TV! I look forward to your performance!
Qi Chen: Jiang Ning, I have invested in your program team. Be the most authentic version of yourself. Come on. (Here is a translation for my older brother who is not good at chatting: Jiang Ning, you have a backer!) Jiang Ning was not surprised that the Qi family knew about her participation in the variety show.
It’s no secret that she’s participating in this variety show. After the official announcement of the program, netizens scolded her and made her a hot topic for two consecutive days... If Ji Shuang also likes to browse cute blogs, she would know that this is not surprising.
Qi Chen is truly a business genius. He not only has many real estate industries, but is also involved in the entertainment industry.
Not only did they pay attention to her affairs, they also sent her messages on the day of departure. Jiang Ning lowered her head and typed carefully, replying one by one.
What surprised Jiang Ning was that, the next second, a message suddenly popped up on her phone screen: Qi Xingzhou: Come on, cat.jpg Qi Xingzhou? Huh? Qi Xingzhou! Qi Xingzhou finally knew how to chat on WeChat?
Jiang Ning was shocked.
She and Qi Xingzhou have been friends for a while, but apart from the last time she sent him a video and asked him out, they haven't had any contact.
Qi Xingzhou never contacted her on his own initiative.
Later, when Ji Shuang showed her a photo of Qi Xingzhou squatting in front of his cell phone, Jiang Ning realized that Qi Xingzhou was waiting for her news all day long.
Ji Shuang asked Qi Xingzhou to send messages to Jiang Ning several times, but Qi Xingzhou ignored her. That's why Ji Shuang took the initiative to complain to Jiang Ning: My stupid son doesn't know how to use WeChat, does he?
Jiang Ning was planning to teach Qi Xingzhou in person the next time they met, but she didn't expect that he would actually send her a message on his own initiative.
Jiang Ning's eyes showed a hint of smile, and she stretched out her finger and tapped Qi Xingzhou's portrait.
[Jiang Ning patted Qi Xingzhou] The top of the phone kept showing that the other party was typing, and no new messages came in.
For some reason, even without seeing Qi Xingzhou, Jiang Ning seemed to be able to imagine him holding his phone with a confused and dazed look on his face.
Jiang Ning stopped teasing him and typed a reply: Thank you for your support. I will take you out to play when I get back from recording the show.
Qi Xingzhou sat cross-legged on the clean, bright carpeted floor in front of the French window. When he heard Jiang Ning's words, he instantly felt happy and expectant.
His eyes, which were originally lifeless, suddenly sparkled.
Qi Xingzhou really wanted to tell Jiang Ning that they could meet each other without waiting until after the show. But Qi Chen had specifically told him that his participation in the show must not be revealed in advance.
Originally, Qi Xingzhou wanted to pretend that he couldn't hear what Qi Chen was saying, but the eldest brother of the Qi family was a shrewd man. He knew that his younger brother would sometimes deliberately pretend not to understand what they said, so he pretended to threaten Qi Xingzhou: If you say what I said, I won't take you to the show.
This undoubtedly exposed Qi Xingzhou's weakness, so he could only hide it from Jiang Ning for the time being.
