Chapter 58 First Encounter
The starship stopped in mid-air for a full half hour until the terminal opened another channel and the traffic control was lifted.
After entering the terminal through the temporary passage, Tang Jia once again saw the huge shuttle-shaped starship from the third floor of the terminal.
The hatch of the starship was wide open, and a landscape screen blocked all prying eyes. Tang Jia's gaze did not linger on the screen for too long, but was fixed on the Pekingese in front of the screen... To be precise, it was on the short and badly threshed corn in the Pekingese's mouth.
Corn!
She has been offering a reward for corn for more than two years!
It actually became a toy for a pet dog!
At that moment, Tang Jia finally empathized with the staff member with a complicated look.
The Pekingese seemed to feel Tang Jia's gaze, put down the corn in its mouth, and barked wildly in Tang Jia's direction.
A heroic woman in black shorts came out from behind the screen and called out to the Pekingese in a deep voice, "Wangzai! Shut up!"
A figure flashed behind the screen. No one knew what she said, but the heroic woman instantly raised her head and looked in the direction of Tang Jia.
Tang Jia immediately withdrew his gaze, raised his hand to grab Si Mingen's collar, and slowly moved forward with the crowd.
Tang Jia's back was covered in sweat after walking just a short distance. Only after leaving the terminal did his heartbeat slowly calm down.
However, Tang Jia and Si Mingen were dumbfounded when they walked out of the terminal.
The once bustling terminal was now deserted. In such a vast space, not a single aircraft was visible.
Is it that everyone is unwilling to fly aircraft in?
It's obvious that the aircraft can't get in at all!
It seems that this traffic control does not distinguish between inside and outside!
It is obviously unrealistic to leave on foot, and driving a mecha is illegal. What else can Tang Jia do?
Of course, Si Mingen and I could only stand obediently at the exit with other passengers and wait for the traffic control to end!
What a hassle!
It would be better to stop in mid-air!
Tang Jia glanced in the direction of the shuttle-shaped starship and curled his lips.
Simingen also came to his senses, patted Tang Jia's hand soothingly, and whispered, "Don't worry! Everyone is waiting!"
Tang Jia said nothing, but silently turned on his laptop, took a photo of the open space in front of him, and posted it on Starnet with the caption:
Sorry! We're stuck at a traffic control point!
Tang Jia is not the kind of person who posts her daily life on Starnet all the time. As soon as this news came out, everyone who followed her noticed it immediately.
Sun Wei was the first to react and replied with three words: Terminal?
Tang Hongjia immediately followed up, posting photos, locations, and captions without missing a single one:
Three kilometers, packed with people!
Tang Chengjia comforted him warmly: The traffic control on the main planet will not exceed two hours. You can find a place to sit for a while. You will still have time to go out after your uncle sends you a message.
Mrs. Barton asked kindly: Do you need to postpone or extend the dinner you booked?
…
In the various comments, everyone was talking at once, and the focus was always on this sudden traffic control and Tang Jia.
Only one person noticed the highlight in Tang Jia's photo - the golden shuttle-shaped starship was faintly visible in the reflection of the metal wall. The unique and iconic dragon pattern allowed Caleb Ryan to determine the identity of its owner at a glance.
Caleb Ryan checked the latest news and immediately guessed the main reason for the traffic control - the Third Princess of the Empire.
This is, arriving early?!
He is more active than the little prince of the sea tribe!
I just don't know what this princess is up to when she suddenly visits the alliance under the guise of studying abroad!
Caleb Ryan raised his hand and forwarded Tang Jia's photo to his old father Kane Ryan. Kane Ryan understood the mystery at a glance and got busy.
As the commander of the Central Legion, Kane Ryan should have received first-hand information about the arrival of the Princess and cooperated in the corresponding welcoming and security work.
But in fact, he actually got the information from his own son, or to be more precise, from a little girl.
There are so many things involved here!
But no matter what went wrong, Kane Ryan couldn't tolerate it.
On the one hand, they sent people to investigate the matter thoroughly; on the other hand, they sent a company of elite soldiers to rush to the terminal as quickly as possible to "protect the safety of the princess."
How can the troops that maintain order be comparable to the elite troops of the Central Corps?
In just half an hour, Kane Ryan took control of the situation at the terminal, and the Central Legion's command aircraft also stopped steadily at the terminal exit.
Seeing the camouflage color approaching from afar, Tang Jia also silently breathed a sigh of relief.
Kane Ryan stepped down from the command vehicle in military boots and approached the iconic shuttle-shaped starship step by step.
A girl wearing red Hanfu, as delicate and beautiful as a figurine, came out from behind the screen at the right time, holding a pet Pekingese dog.
The two exchanged a few pleasantries before the empire's third princess, Miss Long Qingdai, walked leisurely and boarded Kane Ryan's command aircraft, accompanied by the heroic female guard.
Tang Jia looked at the fiery red figure from afar, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he silently crossed out the cheongsam and new Chinese-style dress designs he had drawn on the starship.
It’s not advisable to wear the same clothes as others!
Especially when their identities and status are unequal, she will definitely be the one who suffers, not the princess of the empire.
What's more, this princess is someone who will not give up until she achieves her goal, and will not leave the starship until she gets the command vehicle.
Anyway, other styles of dresses can be worn. Tang Jia doesn't want to cause trouble for herself!
After watching the command aircraft fly away, Tang Jia finally dialed Sun Wei's video call and used her coquettish method to call out in a soft voice, "Auntie!"
Sun Wei hid in a corner of the office and coaxed softly, "Isn't the traffic control over yet?
Where is Tang Hongjia?
Do you want your aunt to come pick you up?"
This series of questions did not confuse Tang Jia. She answered softly but methodically, "The traffic control just ended.
My uncle hasn't arrived yet, but he will be here soon.
I'm calling my aunt via video to ask her to book two suites for my grandfather and me at your school's guesthouse, starting tonight until school starts."
Sun Wei never refused Tang Jia's request.
When Sun Wei heard that she would not return to the Tang family and would live in the guesthouse of the Alliance's First Military Academy, she had no doubts.
He opened his mouth and said "OK", then walked towards the guesthouse despite the gazes from all around him.
With Sun Wei's help, booking two rooms for Si Mingen and Tang Jia was a piece of cake.
As soon as Tang Hongjia's aircraft landed in front of Tang Jia, the guest room information of the guesthouse was sent to Si Mingen and Tang Jia's computer.
Tang Jia pushed the message to Tang Hongjia and said with a smile, "I'll be bothering you running back and forth for the next while!"
