01 Grand Encounter | If you don’t know me well, please call me by my full name
Four o'clock in the morning.
Lin Weifeng hurried to the airport and handed over a dozen documents.
"Hello, please help me check in my luggage." The voice was still slightly hoarse in the night.
The suitcase rolled onto the tracks with a "click" sound, and she breathed a sigh of relief, releasing all the fatigue of the whole night.
The staff member glanced at the screen and looked up politely: "Ms. Lin, you are a business class passenger. You don't need to go through the formalities here. Just wait in the lounge."
"Business class?" She didn't know.
The experienced staff member explained with a smile, "You were originally in economy class, but later received an upgrade. Okay, I'll take care of your luggage. You can go directly to the business class lounge."
"Oh, okay, thank you."
Lin Weifeng turned around thoughtfully, opened the magnetic buckle of his armpit bag, flipped through several pages of information about the Lanxi Auction, and took out his cell phone.
The leather surface of the bag rubbed against the fabric of the newly bought beige windbreaker, making a rustling sound.
She thought that it must be Lawyer Sheng Xin who secretly upgraded her cabin.
As a retired flight attendant, she worked her way up the legal profession for many years and became a partner in a law firm when she was approaching 40.
She pays the most attention to details such as upgrades.
However, I didn't expect that she would be so considerate to her young lawyer.
Lin Weifeng turned on the screen and wanted to call Sheng Xin.
He clicked on the dialog box and his fingertips stopped moving.
If I call her at this time, it will inevitably disturb her confinement period for her second child, so I decided not to.
During the hesitation, a gust of wind followed a figure passing by.
Behind me, a young man's voice came from the window where I had just checked in my baggage: "Hello, business class for an international flight, would you like to check in here?"
Lin Weifeng turned around and took a quick look.
The man stood tall and straight, a simple off-road backpack slung over his right shoulder, his jacket draped over his left arm. He wore a black short-sleeved shirt, revealing a healthy, muscular arm. His army-green trousers neatly displayed his well-proportioned figure.
Lin Weifeng thought he should be quite handsome.
She would often make such "irresponsible" comments about men passing by and then forget about them.
This time is no exception.
After taking a look, she went to the lounge, even though she knew this person was going there too.
Arriving at the lounge, the dark purple sky before dawn scattered blue light, which shone through the floor-to-ceiling windows and complemented the brilliant lights inside.
Lin Weifeng glanced at himself in the glass window.
Sure enough, no matter how exquisitely dressed, it cannot resist the fatigue caused by interrupted sleep.
She yawned, puffed out her lips, and casually walked to a leather sofa opposite the door. She took off her windbreaker, sat down, opened her computer bag, and took out her computer to work.
I have almost finished reviewing the auction materials, and the next tricky task is to help the consulting company apply for copyright registration.
The consulting unit is a cultural and tourism agency that is responsible for managing the former residence of an ancient official, which is also a museum with many famous cultural relics.
One of them is the word "Fu" written by an emperor. The brushwork is unique and symbolizes many children, grandchildren and good fortune.
The consulting firm recently discovered that many banks’ holiday gifts contained the imperial calligraphy “Fu” and felt that legal intervention and protection might be needed, so they contacted Lin Weifeng’s legal team.
It is also the only team in Jingjiang City that takes cultural relics protection as its core business.
Even though we call it a team, there are only two of us.
A partner, Sheng Xin, and a lawyer, herself.
He holds a bachelor's degree in history and a master's degree in law. He met Sheng Xin's eldest daughter while volunteering as a museum guide. Coincidentally, he became Sheng Xin's subordinate during her career boom.
Plain and smooth is the biggest characteristic of Lin Weifeng's life so far.
Just like constant temperature boiled water, it is clean and pure. Without external heat conduction, boiled water will not boil inexplicably.
At dawn, her inspiration flooded her mind, and she quickly completed the 2,000-word feasibility report on copyright protection for the character "Fu."
While resting her eyes, she looked up and glanced at the opposite side unintentionally, and saw a heroic face.
His smooth face was filled with sharp and handsome features, a straight nose, deep eyes, a full forehead, and every inch of his skin looked just right.
He sat upright, holding a glass of iced latte in his hand, gently shaking the ice inside.
Even though he moved only slightly, he exuded strong confidence and composure.
He first replied to the text message, then raised his eyes to meet hers.
In the quiet environment, that look was penetrating, a little wild, and somewhat evil and sexy, as if it was intentionally conveying a message to her.
Lin Weifeng instinctively dodged, pretended to be calm and turned away, moved his body, pursed his lips, turned his head and lowered his eyebrows to look at the juice beside him, picked it up, and took a sip.
It's the man just now.
She thought to herself.
The computer screen is off.
She put down the cup, swiped the mouse, and continued writing the report.
Unexpectedly, the inspiration I just had disappeared completely.
Is this really feasible? The consulting company is only responsible for the safekeeping of the stone carrier of the "Fu" character, not the "Fu" itself.
She began to wonder, but the more she thought about it, the more it made sense.
Just as she was about to send a WeChat message to Sheng Xin, she heard some noise from the other side.
A middle-aged lady who was originally sitting in the corner, wearing high heels, twisted her waist obviously and walked towards the door.
She just sat down on the sofa next to the man.
She leaned over the coffee table, not shying away from anything, and said bluntly: "Handsome guy, add me on WeChat."
Lin Weifeng looked up as if to watch the fun, and unexpectedly, her gaze met his.
“…”
Why... is he always staring at this side?
Lin Weifeng pouted in confusion.
The man didn't say anything. Ms. Hentiangao repeated her request to add him on WeChat, and her attitude was still very attentive.
However, the man who was flirting with her seemed to listen to her words in one ear and out the other, ignoring her perfunctory words and remaining silent.
His attention was always on the opposite side, and he was still staring at Lin Weifeng steadily.
There was no sign of looking away.
Lin Weifeng's face suddenly turned red, uncontrollably.
I encountered a strange thing. Weird thing.
The request to add WeChat was unsuccessful, but Ms. Hentiangao did not give up.
Her aura was strong enough that she directly opened her QR code and handed it to the man.
"add."
The third time he spoke, it was just one word, and his tone was not as attentive.
The man had no choice but to curl his face in the direction of her outstretched arms, curl the corners of his mouth, move his chin slightly, smile politely, and politely reject her.
Then he continued to look at Lin Weifeng.
For a moment, Lin Weifeng was stunned, and the area where his shirt collar and neck met began to feel hot.
What's the meaning?
The way their eyes met at this moment, could it be that he wanted her to "save the hero with her beauty"?
If you show up without permission, you will be considered as being too sentimental, so don't do that.
After taking action, he didn't get the result he wanted, so he became a little frustrated.
Of course, she also noticed the direction of the young man next to her gaze.
Suddenly, he folded his arms, slumped against the back of the sofa, and began to reveal his considerable wealth, intentionally or unintentionally. Finally, he added, "Those who wear white shirts and jeans are obviously workers. No matter how pretty their faces are, once they are involved in work, their beauty will fade sooner or later."
Lin Weifeng: “…”
Being stared at, I got into trouble...
When others can't hear.
So annoying.
Lin Weifeng knew that he was being implied, but he still subconsciously looked at his white shirt - the butterfly collar style, and jeans - the light-colored flared style. There was no comparison at all with the other person's rich and glamorous colorful embroidered silk outfit.
Plus, she was actually working, and doing it with great enthusiasm.
"It's better to sit in economy class." She vented her complaints in a low voice.
I don’t know if Dingdingguai heard what Hentiangao was saying. He remained silent and took a deep breath from time to time.
But he didn't leave his seat and make the high heels even more embarrassed.
Fortunately, the shuttle bus arrived early and everyone took the bus to the plane.
No matter how awkward or confused they were, the moment they walked out of the lounge door, everything returned to strangeness and silence.
Lin Weifeng was upgraded to a later seat and his seat was in the last row of the business class cabin, by the window.
She watched as Ms. Hate Sky High angrily sat down by the window in the first row, one row away from her.
Great, I don’t have to feel awkward all the way, I feel relieved.
Dingdingguai answered a phone call at the cabin door, and his several "received" sounds were drowned out by the surging crowd.
Then he also walked to the first row.
It seems that he is sitting next to Ms. Het Sky High.
Lin Weifeng couldn't help but sneered and made a weak sound.
He heard it accidentally.
He turned sideways and looked back at her, tilting his head and frowning slightly, like a warning without any deterrent effect.
Lin Weifeng restrained his smile, blinked his eyes, and subconsciously covered his lips with his palm.
However, before he could put his things down, he heard Hentian Gao say to the flight attendant, "Miss, I don't want to sit with this gentleman."
The flight attendant was originally greeting everyone with a smile, but upon hearing this, she immediately began to deal with the emergency.
"Ma'am, what do you want?"
"I said, I don't want to sit with this gentleman."
The flight attendant first responded according to protocol: "Ma'am, our business class seats are all pre-booked..."
The flight attendant was interrupted by Hentiangao's exasperated tone before she could finish her words: "Didn't you hear my request clearly? Do you need me to repeat it a few times?"
The flight attendant looked at the man, who nodded politely and said, "It's okay, change seats."
It was the first time in nearly two hours that Lin Weifeng heard his voice clearly.
It’s okay, let’s change seats.
Lin Weifeng felt that the voice was mellow, smooth and warm.
After thinking about it for a while, it even feels familiar.
He's quite interesting indeed, she thought.
Soon, the flight attendant gave the man two empty seats to choose from.
Lin Weifeng sat down safely. When she was pulling the seat belt, she saw the Dingding monster walking towards her with decisive and powerful steps and sitting down next to her steadily.
A wisp of breeze brushed the tip of her nose.
Lin Weifeng: “…”
All right.
Perhaps because she felt guilty, or timid, or perhaps simply because the air pressure increased, her heart felt weightless prematurely and inexplicably rose to her throat.
I also heard Ms. Hentiangao say angrily, "I can't live in the same space with those inconsiderate people!"
I guess it would be more appropriate and safer for the staring monster to sit next to me.
It can also benefit everyone in the business class by keeping the flight quiet and thoughtful.
Just let him be.
It was almost six in the morning.
Lin Weifeng opened the window. In the dim morning light, the sunrise was happening outside the window.
The airport runway stretches into the distance, blurring the boundaries between the distant mountains and grasslands.
The sun slowly emerged from the top of the mountain, bringing purple clouds for hundreds of miles. Looking towards it, you can see that the sky gradually became bluer and the clouds were still soft.
The beautiful scenery didn't affect everyone. The person in front of me continued to babble from time to time: "I will contact the president of your airline right away and have him review every passenger in first class and business class..."
A bit noisy.
Lin Weifeng didn't want to listen anymore.
She pointed her index finger at the small window.
Then he turned to the staring monster and said softly and gently, "Look outside."
She smiled slightly, looking very sweet.
A cold gaze followed her finger and looked towards the sun. He sat there straight and simply said "hmm" without saying anything more.
Lin Weifeng asked him softly, "What business are you going to do?"
The man withdrew his gaze and made the number "eight" gesture with one hand.
Lin Weifeng asked: "Eight? What event is the eighth?"
When the man opened his mouth to say something, Lin Weifeng's cell phone rang.
It was Sheng Xin calling.
"Sister Sheng Xin." She answered the phone immediately.
Sheng Xin said with concern, "Breeze, I've been waiting for you to send me a message, but you haven't. Is it time to take off?"
"We'll take off soon," Lin Weifeng replied with a smile, "It's not easy to be in confinement after childbirth. I don't want to disturb your sleep."
"It's said that you're in confinement after childbirth, so you definitely won't get a good night's sleep. Feel free to contact me from now on."
"Okay, Sister Sheng Xin."
Sheng Xin said, "Mr. Li will not be attending the venue, but he has already mailed the power of attorney to the auction house. We will also send a staff member from our overseas branch to visit on the same day. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me."
"no problem."
"Under normal circumstances, Mr. Li would definitely be able to successfully acquire the 'Eight Treasures Lotus Flower Vase,' but he's not interested in that. When you go to sign the contract, you should primarily investigate whether the original owner's claim of possessing a complete copy of the 'Wenyuan Encyclopedia' is genuine. If it's true, it's truly incredible."
"I know, but...most of those who use lost civilizations for economic gain are not real."
The Wenyuan Encyclopedia was originally a comprehensive documentary work covering astronomy, geography, craftsmanship, and so on.
In ancient times, emperors wanted to use this to demonstrate national power and benefit future generations.
However, the ceremony suffered repeated disasters, the original was lost long ago, and even the copies became a lost civilization in the chaos of war and disaster.
Sheng Xin said, "You know, Mr. Li's ultimate goal in the cultural relics circle is to find the Wenyuan Codex and recover them."
"Yes, I understand. Sister Sheng Xin, I know what's going on."
There is no need to say much about the greatness of the Wenyuan Encyclopedia, which is almost the common pursuit of cultural relics lovers.
It is normal for Mr. Li not to give up any possibility.
"I believe in your expertise, but this is your first time going abroad for business, and I'm sending you to the other side of the world. My hormones are fluctuating, so I'm a little worried."
"Then I'll be grateful for Sister Sheng Xin's kindness. I'd appreciate a raise in salary."
"Naughty. But, I agreed."
The two smiled.
Sheng Xin finally explained, "Mr. Li has arranged a seat for you at the auction. I'll send you a picture later."
"good."
"Have a safe journey."
"Yes."
After I hung up the phone, the plane had already started taxiing.
In a blink of an eye, she saw the man next to her still watching the rising sunrise.
"Still looking," Lin Weifeng's eyes moved between him and the window, "The clouds have turned pink. They should look even better when they fly up into the sky."
At a certain moment, noticing her turning her gaze, the man deliberately straightened his neck, stopped looking out the window, and closed his eyes to rest.
"...Tsk, you're pretending to be cool." She complained.
At this time, the man moved his lips and said, "Quiet, breeze."
“…”
baffling.
Lin Weifeng was stunned for a moment, then looked at him again: "How... do you know my name?"
The man paused and said calmly: "The receiver is right next to my ear."
She thought for a second and realized it was the voice on the phone just now.
She asked, "Are you implying that I'm noisy?"
He took a steady breath, didn't answer directly, and repeated, "Quiet, gentle breeze."
Lin Weifeng: “…”
The plane entered the designated runway, and Lin Weifeng finally reported the takeoff situation in the family WeChat group.
And sent: [It takes ten hours to fly. ]
[There's a handsome guy sitting next to me, so I'm pretty lucky.]
[She's quiet, but a little... mean?]
After she finished posting, she secretly glanced at the man's face, only to see that he still had his eyes closed, probably because he couldn't see her complaints.
Unexpectedly, the man took the initiative to say: "Don't worry, I didn't see it."
“…”
Without waiting for her family's reply, she turned off her phone.
The plane accelerated and took off. The moment it left the ground, Lin Weifeng said, "My last name is Lin."
After a pause, he continued, "If you're not familiar with me, please call me by my full name."
Then he moved angrily to face the window.
The man stood straight and motionless.
That is, her eyelashes trembled slightly, the corners of her lips curled up, and she smiled secretly.
