"Is this possible? Isn't this against the rules?" Wenhui looked incredulous. It seemed like this was the first time in his life that he had enjoyed such treatment.
"Yes, our operation is in compliance with relevant regulations. Mr. Qin is a retired cadre at the governor level and can enjoy this privilege according to regulations," the staff explained.
"What kind of crappy rule is this? Isn't this a privilege?" Wenhui turned into a messenger of justice and for a moment he even forgot his own position.
"Haha, Master Wen, you may have misunderstood. The reason for this rule is for the overall situation. After all, the things that the governor has to deal with must be major issues related to thousands of people. It doesn't matter if the ordinary people sacrifice a little personal time." The staff member still patiently explained, but in his heart he was complaining: "You enjoy the privileges, and now you are pretending to be a good person."
"What's a big deal and what's a small deal? Whose matter is not a big deal? How do you know if other passengers have urgent matters? What if they miss an important event in their lives because of your delay, can you take responsibility? Besides, communication is so developed nowadays, can't the leader be contacted via mobile phone first? The world will continue to run as usual even if someone is missing!" Wen Hui said sternly.
"This... Mr. Wen, I'm just an airport staff member, and this rule is not set by our airport, it is set by the leaders above!" The staff member smiled bitterly.
Wen Hui agreed. There was really no need to tell such a small fry all this. Thinking that Li Mu still had important things to do, he did not dwell on this matter any longer. He said impatiently, "Alright, alright, take us aboard!"
Although he was somewhat averse to using his privileges, things had already come to this and he couldn't waste Li Mu's time.
"No need, let them fly first, I'm not in that hurry." Li Mu said lightly.
"What? Senior, are you sure?" Wenhui said.
"Haha, Mu Tianyuan will be there sooner or later, so why rush?" Li Mu said with a smile.
"That's right." Wenhui nodded, thinking that what Li Mu said made sense. His grandfather had already asked someone to keep an eye on Mu Tianyuan, so how could Mu Tianyuan still run away?
Then he looked at the staff and said, "Did you hear that? Cancel our flight first and let theirs fly first!"
The staff member looked bitter when he heard this: "Please wait a moment, my two distinguished guests. I need to consult my superiors on this matter."
"Do it as soon as possible, don't keep everyone waiting anxiously." Wenhui waved his hand.
Then the staff member went to the side to make a phone call.
However, through observation, it was clear that the communication between the staff and their superiors was not going smoothly. Their expressions seemed as if they were listening to the other party's lecture, occasionally interjecting a few somewhat weak explanations.
After a while, a staff member came over and said to Li Mu and the others, "Dear guests, the airport has already been arranged. It would be inappropriate to make any last-minute changes now. Why don't we board the plane first? If your plane takes off as soon as possible, the following flights will have less waiting time."
"Is it so difficult for you to do such a trivial thing? Let their flight fly first!" Wenhui said.
"Mr. Wen, this is the arrangement of our superiors. Please don't make things difficult for me." The staff member smiled bitterly.
"Does it mean that our plane is not flying and the flights behind us will have to wait?" Wenhui frowned.
"As long as your flights are not cancelled today, this is the principle."
"Haha, no matter how big our plane is, it only takes up one runway. Do you think it's appropriate to waste everyone's time like this?"
"This is also for safety. The safety issues at the governor level cannot be ignored."
"Oh! Okay, I won't waste my words with you. Today I will tell you clearly, let other planes fly first! Otherwise we won't fly either! You must tell your leader exactly this, and say that it was me...just say that it was my grandfather Qin Hao who said that!" Wenhui looked determined.
The staff had no choice but to report Wenhui's attitude to their superiors again.
It can be seen that the staff member received a lot of scolding in the process of reporting to his superiors, but there was nothing he could do as he could not afford to offend people on both sides. Who made him the middleman?
"Dear guests, we are sorry that we cannot meet your request at the airport. However, our leaders attach great importance to this matter and have already reported it to their superiors. Please wait a moment," said the staff.
Wenhui glanced at the anxious passengers in the terminal hall, sighed, and said, "Hurry up."
…………
Not long after, Wen Hui's cell phone rang. It was an unfamiliar number. He was about to hang up when the staff member reminded him, "Mr. Wen, this number looks official."
Wen Hui raised his eyebrows when he heard this: "Oh~? Really?"
The staff nodded again to confirm.
Seeing this, Wenhui had no choice but to answer the call: "Hello~ Who is this?"
"Uncle Qi? Which Uncle Qi?"
"Ah~? You are Deputy Inspector Qi... Uncle Qi! You are such an important person, why did you think of calling me?"
"Haha, that's true, but it's not my fault. It was the airport that acted on its own. I have already rejected their request and told them to resume normal flights. After all, I'm not the kind of person who seeks privileges."
"What? You mean to follow their arrangements? This... this is obviously a privilege. As the deputy governor, how can you have such an idea?"
"Haha, don't worry, there are no outsiders here. Besides, I have nothing to fear and I don't have any shameful secrets. What if someone hears it?"
"Put the overall situation first? Don't break the rules? What overall situation? What rules? Are they the rules for you to enjoy your privileges?"
"Okay, stop saying those high-sounding words. I understand what you mean. Aren't you afraid that if I expose this matter of privilege, you won't be able to enjoy it in the future?"
"Haha, you want me to think about my dad's career? Old man, I called you Uncle Qi to give you face, and you dare to threaten me. Do you think my grandpa is old and won't live long, and my dad will have no one to rely on in the future?"
"I'm angry? I'm angry, damn! Okay, stop talking nonsense. If you want to trip up my dad, go ahead and see who falls first! As for this privilege, it's none of my business, but I don't want to go along with you!"
After saying this, Wenhui threw his phone to the ground, spat on the ground, and cursed: "Bah! Deputy Governor, what a bullshit!"
Seeing this scene, the staff member was shocked. He was just an employee and had never seen such a scene before. How he wished that he was not the one who received Li Mu and the others today!
Just when the staff member was trembling with fear, a phone call came in. He quickly answered the call. After hearing what the other party said, the staff member was a little surprised and nodded repeatedly.
"Yes, I understand." The staff member hung up the phone, adjusted his mood, and said to Li Mu and the others, "Dear guests, according to your request, we have cancelled your priority flight arrangements. Now the airport flights have been resumed."
As the staff was speaking, the airport broadcast sounded, announcing that flights would continue as usual.
