Chapter 21 "What is he happy about?"
Li Fuzheng's gaze was very oppressive. Meng Liyue was stunned for a moment, then responded in a rather innocent tone: "Did you send me a message?"
"No?"
"Oh." Meng Liyue remembered, "You mean the one where you made an emergency landing in Shenzhen?"
Li Fuzheng asked back: "Is it not so?"
"I thought you didn't send it to me. It was a work message that was sent to the wrong person."
The stiff sentences in that WeChat message sounded very much like a work report, so she naturally assumed that it was not for her.
What's more, Li Fuzheng had never done this before. How could Meng Liyue allow herself to hope that this message was really sent to her?
So, she pretended not to see it.
Afterwards, she realized that she seemed to have missed something, and Meng Liyue confirmed again: "What did you mean when you sent me that message yesterday?"
"Nothing, just telling you casually." Li Fu Zheng's tone was cold, and he didn't seem to care too much.
For Meng Liyue, liking him has become a game for herself and she doesn't have much expectation.
Even at this moment, she tried her best to conceal her true emotions and acted calmly: "Well, it's nothing, I'll just..."
"Something's going on."
Li Fuzheng suddenly took a step forward, and the aggressive pressure brought by his tall figure pressed down the surroundings.
He leaned forward slightly to look at her, and the distance suddenly became so close that Meng Liyue's nostrils were filled with his scent.
The psychological preparation I had just made completely collapsed, my face turned red and I couldn't control myself.
"A-what else?"
Her voice was shaking.
Li Fuzheng asked slowly: "What did you do at home yesterday?"
Meng Liyue answered decisively: "I was not at home yesterday."
His expression darkened a little and he snorted suddenly.
"What's the matter?" She felt that his expression was a little strange.
Li Fuzheng put his hands in his pockets, straightened up, turned around, and said in a low voice: "No."
Looking at the man's broad and tall back, Meng Liyue admired him for a moment, then said to him, "I trained on safety regulations all day yesterday, and it ended in the evening. I came back and ordered a takeout."
There is no such thing as strict rest time in the domestic civil aviation industry. There are studies, meetings, and annual review and assessments.
During these years of working, I have always been surrounded by busyness and pressure.
After Meng Liyue finished speaking, she felt the air was very quiet.
She was wondering when she suddenly saw Li Fuzheng walking towards the kitchen. He opened the refrigerator, took a look, and said with half his face turned sideways, "Eating at home today?"
“…Yeah, huh?”
After finishing training yesterday, Meng Liyue just wanted to rest today.
"I'm going to the supermarket."
Meng Liyue finally saw clearly that when Li Fuzheng spoke, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
What is he happy about?
"I'll go with you."
It just so happened that Meng Liyue also wanted to buy some daily necessities.
There is a large shopping mall a few hundred meters away from the community. It has a complete range of goods. Meng Liyue used to go there to buy things when she had free time.
Although she can buy directly online, she still likes shopping in supermarkets. She thinks it is a very stress-relieving process to select items from the colorful shelves and put them into the shopping cart.
Unexpectedly, Li Fuzheng also likes to go shopping in the supermarket.
"What do you want to buy first?"
After entering the supermarket, she pulled a cart as if she were familiar with the place and asked for his opinion first.
"Fresh food section." Li Fuzheng took a few steps forward, grabbed the handle of the cart, and easily walked over.
Meng Liyue glanced at his bony fingers, her eyes slightly curved, and walked quietly beside him.
Li Fuzheng picked out some steaks and shrimps, and bought side dishes and fruits. He was quite skilled.
She was a little curious: "Have you ever cooked for yourself when you were abroad?"
"Not much time, once in a while."
"You eat crew meals most of the time?"
Li Fuzheng's voice was very quiet, but he would patiently answer Meng Liyue's questions: "Or eat in the hotel."
As they were talking, they had already walked to other areas. Meng Liyue bought some daily necessities and began to pick out various snacks that she liked.
During this period, she had just moved into Li Fuzheng's house and felt embarrassed to let herself go because she had been craving for something for a long time.
Li Fuzheng had no habit of eating snacks, so he just waited by the side.
Meng Liyue went out today wearing a halter-neck vest and jeans, with her long hair tucked behind her head, looking very casual, revealing half of her slender collarbone, which was still dazzlingly white under the lights of the supermarket.
"Are you going to the expedition?"
"……Um?"
Meng Liyue suddenly smiled sweetly: "I've chosen it."
The joy brought by snacks makes her look particularly lively.
Li Fuzheng regained his attention: "Is there anything else you want to buy?"
"No, go and settle the bill."
When they got to the cashier, the person in front of them turned around and saw Li Fuzheng clearly. He was quite surprised and greeted him: "Brother Zheng?!"
Li Fuzheng curled his lips slowly and said, "It's you. What a coincidence."
There will be personnel rotation in the flight crew every time, and the combination of captain, co-pilot, or observer is never fixed. If you stay in the airline for a long time, the probability of encountering repeated personnel will increase slowly, and you will become more familiar with them.
However, Li Fuzheng had not been working at Central Southern Airlines for long, and he had only met many of the co-pilots he worked with once, and he did not remember their names very clearly.
Of course, in the eyes of others, he is the youngest A330 captain of Air China, and the impression he leaves on others is always more profound.
Just like the co-pilot in front of me, I recognized him at first sight.
"Brother Zheng, which neighborhood do you live in?"
Li Fuzheng said the name.
Meng Liyue didn't recognize the man and remained calm until the man beside her tilted his head and introduced him to her: "Do you remember the flight with the heart patient? He was the co-pilot that day."
"..." Meng Liyue thought to herself, what a coincidence.
Isn't that the person that Xu Moti wanted to introduce to her?
"Hello." She greeted politely.
The young co-pilot, who had just settled the bill and was carrying his things to give up his seat, turned his head in shock and stared at Meng Liyue.
Before this, he didn't know what the approach controller with the nice voice looked like.
Xu Moti said he would help him find a connection, but he didn't send him his contact information for a long time. He went to ask for it, but was given a perfunctory answer.
He soon realized another very important thing.
Brother Zheng, go shopping in the supermarket with her.
mean……
Xu Moti is really evil-hearted! Isn't this a deliberate trap to harm him?
He was angry, but didn't dare to ask any more questions. He smiled timidly while carrying his things: "My friend is waiting for me outside. I'll leave first. See you later, Brother Zheng."
"Well, be careful on the road."
Seeing the other party hurriedly leaving, Meng Liyue tilted her head, and then heard Li Fuzheng ask: "Did he add you later?"
“No.”
"Um."
On the day of Li Fuzheng's expedition, he sent a message to Xu Moti, reminding her not to do things that she shouldn't do.
Xu Moti tried to play dumb, so he didn't reply.
After returning home, Meng Liyue thought: "Give me the bill."
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Li Fu Zheng reach out and grab her face without any warning.
