After the New Year holiday, Lin Qiao really went to work three days early, not to the company, but to accompany Su Zhengxing on a business trip to the UK.
She had heard that a laboratory funded by Baitian in Cambridge had made new research findings, so Su Zhengxing was going to inspect it. Qi Yuan happened to have other plans, so she sent her to accompany him.
Lin Qiao had never been abroad in her life. After hearing the news, she was so excited that she couldn’t sleep all night. She was already imagining a pleasant journey before she even set foot abroad.
But Su Zhengxing, in her consciousness, knew that this meant his plans had officially begun, and that time was running out.
With the experience from the previous trip, Lin Qiao arranged the itinerary perfectly this time. After a flight of nearly ten hours, they landed smoothly at the transit station in Amsterdam.
Because Lin Qiao’s CET-6 English score of only 425 was truly awful, Su Zhengxing chose to check in himself during the transit. While he was checking in, Lin Qiao fawningly went over to the side and bought him a cup of coffee.
Both Su Zhengxing and Lin Qiao were traveling light; their two suitcases combined barely exceeded one person’s free checked baggage allowance. Just as he was about to check in his luggage, a woman from the next queue approached.
“Hello, Sir. Are you Chinese?”
Su Zhengxing looked up.
The fateful bell rang in his ears. Everything around him stopped. He could clearly feel an invisible force pushing him toward the person in front of him, which was both strong and strange.
“Excuse me for interrupting. This is my first time traveling abroad, and I wasn’t aware that different airlines have different checked baggage allowances. I’m also going to London and will be on the same flight as you. I just noticed you have an extra luggage allowance. If it’s convenient, could you please check a small bag for me?”
The girl’s voice was clear and elegant, her manner sincere.
Su Zhengxing opened his mouth to refuse, but heard himself say ‘Yes’?
“Thank you so much! My name is Shen Ruxing, and this is my business card.”
The girl happily handed over a card.
Su Zhengxing watched his hand rise to take the business card. The name on the business card matched the name he had seen in the information before.
Shen Ruxing—Gu Jibai’s little white flower.
Is it her?
Lin Qiao happened to see this scene as she returned from buying coffee.
In the crowd, across from Su Zhengxing, stood a girl in a pure white trench coat. Her long, raven-colored hair flowed freely over her shoulders, her peach-colored eyes shimmered with ripples, her skin was whiter than snow, and her lips were a touch of rosy red. She looked as pure as a character from a CG animation.
Most importantly, she actually glowed!!
This wasn’t an exaggeration; it was a physical glow. She stood in a place where there was no light source, yet she was shimmering with a golden light!
Lin Qiao was completely stunned.
“Su Zhengxing, I think I’ve seen a ghost again…”
Su Zhengxing, in her consciousness, also sensed that something was amiss. He suddenly felt a strong sensation, just like when he’d met Shen Ruxing before.
“What do you mean by ‘again’? What did you see?” He asked gravely.
Lin Qiao described the scene she had witnessed in detail, and after finishing, she couldn’t help but sigh, “You actually agreed to help a stranger check in her bag. Aren’t you really afraid that she might have contraband in her bag?”
Su Zhengxing’s heart skipped a beat. What he was worried about really happened. Shen Ruxing really showed up early!
The last time he met Shen Ruxing was for the same reason, except that her destination wasn’t England, but Santorini. She was heartbroken after learning of Gu Jibai’s marriage and had traveled thousands of miles to Santorini to relax.
At the registration office, Shen Ruxing was still expressing her gratitude to Su Zhengxing, but Su Zhengxing felt as if his feet had taken root, unable to move.
At the same time, Su Zhengxing, in her consciousness, also felt this anxiety.
