"You've come?" The voice was eerie, as if it came from hell.
Fang Silei: "..." Damn it, you're already like this, can't you just get together already? Are you torturing you guys or me?
She could only bite the bullet and say, "Teacher Cheng hung up the phone too quickly yesterday, I didn't even have time to say a few more words. This isn't my fault."
Losi clicked her tongue: "Did I mention Teacher Cheng? When did I talk about her?"
Fang Silei: "..." Who doesn't know who you're talking about?
But with Losi in a fit of rage, Fang Silei wouldn't be foolish enough to walk right into the line of fire.
Luo Xi glared at her fiercely, then went to push her suitcase. After taking a few steps, she turned around angrily and looked at Fang Silei.
Fang Silei: "..."
Lossie was even angrier and asked, "Can't you tell her now? Are they all stupid? Can't they reform the voting?"
Fang Silei chuckled: "I checked, all the tickets for the 12:30 flight are sold out, except for the flight to Beicheng, which is a different route from ours. In that case, we can't change our tickets, right? Besides, it's not even the same airline!"
Losi choked, gave a cold laugh, and pulled her luggage down a few steps, but then her pace slowed down.
She stood on the stairs for a while, feeling hot, then turned around and whispered to Fang Silei, "Are there any plane tickets to Haicheng at 12 o'clock?"
Fang Silei suppressed a laugh and said with a serious expression, "Yes, there is! It's just not the airline we usually fly with."
Lossie snorted, said nothing, and continued downstairs.
Fang Silei knew her well and naturally understood what she meant, so she took out her phone and said, "Then I'll change my flight."
Losi remained haughty and ignored her.
Fang Silei suppressed a laugh; if she were dissatisfied, she would have already started yelling.
Therefore, Fang Silei sent a message to her assistant to change her ticket, and the assistant changed it very quickly upon receiving the message.
Oh, it can't be changed, I can only return it and buy it again.
Fang Silei was secretly laughing, thinking that the young couple were practically boosting the airline's sales performance!
***
As soon as Luo Xi reached the first floor, she saw Cheng Qing standing in the morning light, tidying up her desk. Hearing the sound, Cheng Qing looked up at Luo Xi, gave her a gentle smile, and said, "You're up? Come and have breakfast!"
Luo Xi blushed and sat down at the table. Cheng Qing had heated up some milk that morning and made her some toast and a sunny-side-up egg.
Luo Xi ate in silence, and Cheng Qing chuckled, then sat down next to her and started eating his own portion.
The cameraman was silently recording behind them. For the show, this was the last morning of the final episode, and it might also be the last time fans could see them together.
Therefore, the photographer filmed very carefully, and the camera would occasionally pan across the luggage in the living room.
Fang Silei was sitting on the sofa and was not in the frame.
After breakfast, they took their luggage and gathered under the trees at the village entrance. Soon, all ten of them arrived, their faces beaming with energy as they smiled and said their goodbyes.
The area under the tree was filled with laughter and chatter, creating a lively atmosphere.
Kong Mingyan brought 10 gift boxes, saying they were gifts from the film crew.
Everyone accepted the gifts with smiles, and then bid each other another heartfelt farewell.
After thanking everyone again, Kong Mingyan waved and said, "I hope we will have the opportunity to get together again in the future."
In one sentence, the feeling of parting was finally fully expressed.
Everyone looked at each other and realized that the chances of them getting together again were extremely slim. Even if they were all in the same circle, the chances of them bumping into each other were still not that great, not to mention that some of them were company CEOs, rich kids who were just dabbling in live streaming, and streamers who only did live streaming.
It would be extremely difficult to get together like this again.
Thinking about it this way, memories of playing and having fun together during this time flashed through their minds, and everyone's excitement about finally finishing work diminished a bit, with each person showing signs of sadness at parting.
Upon opening the gift boxes, the production team was quite tacky, giving everyone a gold necklace with a pendant representing their zodiac animal.
The only difference was the necklaces that Luo Xi and Cheng Qing gave each other; one had a bow as a pendant, and the other had an arrow as a pendant.
Each necklace is engraved with the title "Aces Go Places". At this moment, the four words "Aces Go Places" on these necklaces seem to hold special significance.
Kong Mingyan smiled and said to everyone, "Goodbye."
The 10 guests shouted together, "Goodbye!"
As they spoke, everyone pulled their luggage and walked out of the village. Several drones took off and recorded the guests' departure.
As the drone flew higher and higher, the guests' figures became smaller and smaller, and the surrounding environment captured became wider and wider, making the guests walking alone on the country path appear even more lonely.
In just one scene, there is a picture of Losi in front, with Cheng Qing following closely behind.
The figure in front kept turning back to look...
Almost everyone can imagine that at this moment, Teacher Cheng would probably show a reassuring smile, and Luo Xi would probably blush slightly...
Author's Note:
Sorry, I'm prone to headaches, especially when I'm sleep-deprived. _(:з」∠)_
Chapter 141
The day "Aces Go Places" ended was sunny and clear.
Cheng Qing followed behind Luo Xi, holding her phone and thinking of calling a car. But she saw that Luo Xi hadn't closed the door after getting into the van. Luo Xi sat inside, not looking in her direction, but also not reacting. Clearly... she was waiting for her.
Cheng Qing smiled and thanked her, even though Luo Xi still didn't reply. But Cheng Qing knew she must have heard him. Cheng Qing put her luggage in the trunk and got in the car.
Fang Silei sat in the passenger seat, while Cheng Qing sat in the back seat with only her and Luo Xi. After closing the door, the driver immediately started the car and drove onto the highway.
Throughout the journey, Losi remained silent, simply resting her chin on her hand and gazing out the window. Cheng Qing, meanwhile, was looking down at her phone, seemingly quite busy as well.
Looking at all this through the car window, Losi couldn't help but purse her lips, a little unhappy.
The airport is bustling with people, most of whom are in a hurry.
Before getting out of the car, Losi put on a hat and a mask and followed behind Fang Silei without attracting much attention.
When Cheng Qing finished her first recording, she experienced being surrounded by onlookers, so when she saw Luo Xi wearing a hat and mask in the car, she and Fang Silei asked for one as well.
Surprisingly, Fang Silei had actually prepared a portion for Cheng Qing. After the two got out of the car, Fang Silei told them, "Let's check in our luggage first."
Cheng Qing paused for a moment, then nodded. Cheng Qing didn't know what flight Luo Xi had booked, let alone that Luo Xi's schedule was most likely different from his own.
Cheng Qing followed behind Luo Xi simply to confirm her destination. Therefore, as soon as she saw them reach the window, she curiously looked up at the airline company.
Then I froze. This flight... I think I already have a ticket?
Looking at the time again, it was indeed 12 o'clock.
She...changed her flight?
Cheng Qing's gaze unconsciously fell on the backs of the people queuing in front of her, and she suddenly smiled, feeling an itch in her heart like a cat scratching.
Only then did she put away her phone and seriously follow behind Losi in line.
Fang Silei saw this and was secretly pleased. "Little girl, my princess is so obedient and gentle. If you dare to wrong her, be careful of being cyberbullied by the entire internet."
Cheng Qing had no idea what Fang Silei was thinking, and just obediently followed behind Luo Xi.
After exchanging their boarding passes, Luo Xi and Fang Silei headed to the VIP lounge. They frequently travel all over the country and have memberships with various airlines.
The purpose is to have a good place to rest during the flight, so that one doesn't waste too much energy on rushing to and waiting for the plane.
This wasn't a flight Losi usually took, and their VIP lounge wasn't particularly luxurious. But it was adequate as a rest area before boarding.
After Luo Xi went inside, she and Fang Silei picked out a good spot, but after waiting for a long time, Cheng Qing still hadn't arrived, and Luo Xi's heart sank.
Cheng Qing's situation was different. She believed that Cheng Qing was serious. Since he said he wanted to pursue her, he would definitely follow her.
But the other Cheng Qing... won't.
Losi had a bad feeling about her, so she got up and wanted to go out.
Fang Silei stopped her: "I'll go take a look."
Losi frowned and said nervously, "I'll go."
Fang Silei shook her head, pressed her down into a chair, and said, "Aren't you angry with her right now? I'll go."
As he spoke, he got up and headed towards the door. Just as he turned the corner, he saw Cheng Qing come in with his boarding pass.
Fang Silei breathed a sigh of relief, but couldn't help frowning and asking her, "Why are you so slow?"
Cheng Qing blinked, then smiled and said, "I'm in economy class! I can't get in."
Fang Silei choked: "..."
For a moment, I hadn't even thought about that question, and then I asked curiously, "So how did you get in?"
Cheng Qing smiled and said, "This airline isn't very big, but their VIP lounges generate revenue."
When some VIP lounges are operating at a loss, they choose to generate revenue by offering lounge access to non-VIP and non-first-class passengers for a fee.
Cheng Qing couldn't help but say, "I originally wanted to upgrade to a cabin, but there were no seats available. So after asking them, they said I could pay for VIP lounge service, which is why I was a little late."
Fang Silei was speechless: "Then why didn't you just buy a first-class ticket from the beginning?"
Cheng Qing was taken aback, gave an awkward laugh, and said, "...Why don't they eat meat porridge! I have to support my family, don't I?" In her heart, she couldn't help but feel disgusted. Wasn't buying economy class tickets just a habit?
Fang Silei was speechless again: "I really admire you..." As she spoke, she turned around and led Cheng Qing to Luo Xi's table, asking her on the way, "What will you do if Luo Xi doesn't change her ticket?"
There are still plenty of tickets available at 12 o'clock, but all the tickets for 12:30 are sold out. If Losi doesn't change her ticket, even if Cheng Qing knows which city Losi is going to, finding someone in a city of a few million people is like finding a needle in a haystack, let alone in a city of tens of millions.
Upon hearing this, Cheng Qing's smile became even gentler.
“At first, I really didn’t think she would change her ticket…” When Cheng Qing realized she had bought the wrong ticket, she tried all sorts of methods: “I thought about buying a replacement ticket or waiting for a ticket at the venue, but the chances were not high.”
Cheng Qing's voice was gentle, as if she were talking about something very heartwarming.
"If all else fails, I'll check her destination and then take the next train."
Cheng Qing looked up at Fang Silei and said softly, "As long as we're in the same city, we'll eventually find her. Besides, she's so famous."
Fang Silei smiled and patted Cheng Qing on the shoulder: "Actually, the VIP lounge offers services such as baggage check-in and boarding pass exchange."
As she spoke, she walked to the table and sat down. When Luo Xi saw Cheng Qing coming over, she pouted unhappily.
Cheng Qing was stunned for a moment, then smiled silently.
