In this era of extremely inconvenient communication, the way Yu Mingxiang and her older brother agreed to pick her up at the airport was that she would contact him after landing, and then he would go out.
After all, Yu Mingxiang knew that her brother was also a very busy person.
She didn't want her older brother to wait for her at the airport, so they had no choice but to wait for him there.
Gu Guanhai had no objection to this.
Once they arrive in the Western Empire and transport that batch of grain, they'll only care about the outcome; they're not in a hurry to act on the timeline.
so.
Yu Mingxiang spoke with great anticipation.
But.
Yu Chengping, on the other end of the phone, heard his sister's voice but looked bitter.
During the war, he went abroad.
He couldn't even go back for his sister's wedding.
He spends most of his time abroad, leaving his younger sister to care for their elderly relatives. Yu Chengping feels deeply guilty towards his sister. Upon hearing that she was coming to the Western Empire, he was so excited that he couldn't sleep for several nights. He had originally planned to go to the airport to pick her up, but...
"Little sister, I can't come to pick you up."
He said apologetically into the phone, "A big client of mine has suddenly arrived, and I might have to go and greet him."
Upon hearing this, Yu Mingxiang said: ...
His expression darkened.
Yu Chengping: "Do you still remember the address I gave you, little sister?"
"Just take a taxi to the address above. That's my home here. The spare key is in the place where we used to hide the keys. You'll definitely be able to find it."
Yu Mingxiang replied with a slightly disappointed tone, "Okay."
Then she hung up the phone.
The place where they used to hide their keys...
Although it was a distant memory for Yu Mingxiang, separated by past and present lives, she still remembered it.
It's under the flowerpots in front of my house.
The place where the eldest brother hid the spare key remained unchanged.
But.
Her older brother didn't come to pick her up.
Yu Mingxiang's disappointment was almost written all over her face.
Seeing this, Gu Guanhai walked over.
"What's wrong?"
He asked, "Is there something wrong with your brother-in-law that prevents him from coming?"
Yu Mingxiang gave a dejected "hmm".
Gu Guanhai laughed, "What's wrong with that?"
He put his arm around her shoulder and said, "Making a living away from home isn't easy. He must have been held up by something, which is why he can't come to pick us up. Don't be sad, I'll send someone to pick us up right away."
As he spoke, Gu Guanhai stepped forward, picked up the phone in the phone booth, and dialed a number.
The call was connected.
Gu Guanhai: "Airport."
He only said two words before hanging up the phone and going back to coax his wife.
The person on the other end of the phone, upon receiving the call, was instantly energized and sprang into action.
"Hurry, hurry, hurry!"
"Boss has arrived at the airport, we're in charge of picking him up!"
"..."
at the same time.
Outside the airport.
Gu Guanhai helped Yu Mingxiang sit down on a bench by the roadside, and together with Xuancao, gently comforted her.
"Honey, don't be sad."
"Mom, don't be sad. Uncle said he was going to entertain a big client. He definitely cares about you."
"..."
Yu Mingxiang: ...
Of course she knew that her older brother had feelings for her.
My older brother went abroad at a young age and has been living abroad ever since, only returning home once, which was...
All of the Yu family's assets were given to her.
Also, they left her a lot of money.
She was able to raise three children despite being a widow, partly because she had a stable job and partly because of the support her older brother gave her.
She is rich.
They have a family, a career, and money.
Therefore, even without a man, she was not worried.
But.
Starting her life anew, Yu Mingxiang glanced at Gu Guanhai sitting beside her, and then...
