In the rest cabin.
“Do you think our relationship is developing too quickly?” Tang Xiao suddenly asked.
Wu Jie was taken aback, “Is this fast?
The Black Pupil King can hit the sheets with a girl within a minute of meeting her!”
“Get lost!!”
Tang Xiao scolded with feigned anger, “Do you think I don’t know what kind of women those are?”
“Haha!
You’ve really got it wrong!
The Black Pupil King just slaps ten property ownership certificates on the table, and that girl says they have a good connection.
As they chat, they fall in love!”
“That’s incredible mercenary!”
Tang Xiao turned away and sighed softly.
“I always find it strange.
You don’t seem to have pursued me much, so how did I become so confused and fall for you?”
“Didn’t we agree that we were just pretending?
How did it turn out this way while we were acting?”
Wu Jie said softly with a laugh:
“Do you feel like our relationship is progressing too fast?
I’ve put in the effort of a Herculean task here!”
“Really?
But I feel like, apart from that time you helped me heal my old wounds, you haven’t put in much effort at all!”
Tang Xiao asked with furrowed brows.
Wu Jie chuckled, “Isn’t that how love works?
It arrives quietly when you least expect it.
Or do you need someone to notify you?
Or for your brain to clearly tell you that you’re smitten, that you’re in love?”
“This…”
Tang Xiao was at a loss for words.
Wu Jie hugged Tang Xiao tighter and chuckled,
“I know you must have some small dissatisfaction in your heart, feeling like something is missing.”
“Actually…
isn’t it just romance?”
Tang Xiao hesitated for a moment and murmured,
“Maybe you’re right!
I always feel…
that there’s a lack of memorable experiences that cut deep.”
“It might have to do with my personality; anyway…
it always feels like we just ended up together without realizing it!”
Wu Jie laughed, “Do you feel that it’s different from other couples?
Shopping together, traveling, watching movies?
Or that I haven’t given you any decent gifts?”
Tang Xiao shook her head.
“I don’t know, but at least when I won the bid this morning, I was incredibly excited.
And seeing you pass out, I was really panicked and scared…
That’s why I say my personality isn’t settled; I need big ups and downs, something thrilling to make a deep impression on me!”
Wu Jie laughed heartily, “Would you find it exciting if the plane were to crash right now?”
“Shut your crow’s mouth!
I don’t want to die yet!
Go to sleep now; I’m so sleepy!”
Tang Xiao, still in the recovery period from her injuries, no longer slept and ate as much as before, but she still needed more sleep than the average person, at least nine hours a day compared to the usual seven.
Wu Jie of course knew that and was extremely tired himself.
With a grunt, he fell asleep.
Unconsciously.
The plane began to descend slightly, the angle getting steeper, accompanied by a subtle vibration.
Wu Jie opened his eyes and saw the landing indicator lights were on.
Soon.
The plane transmitted a shock, followed by the screeching reverse thrust of the engines.
Whirr~
The plane trembled, and the engines roared.
Tang Xiao lazily opened her sleepy eyes and, through the porthole, saw the grand airport terminal.
Ding dong!
The onboard announcement started.
“Ladies and gentlemen, our plane has now landed at Dubai International Airport!”
“Due to extended wait times at the Aseyah Airport, we have used more fuel than anticipated, so we will be refueling, restocking, and undergoing routine maintenance.
We will stop here for three hours.”
“You may enter the transfer area of the airport, visit duty-free shops or dine at restaurants, but please make sure to return within three hours for boarding.
The ground crew’s phone number is…
”
Following the crisp and pleasant voice, softened music played.
Wu Jie distinctly heard the colleagues in the front cabin and business class getting a bit excited.
Coming to Dubai International Airport, the so-called shoppers’ paradise, how could they not be thrilled?
Who doesn’t have relatives or friends that they’d like to buy a little something for as a gift?
Wu Jie turned over and saw Tang Xiao actually getting up.
“Are you going to get off the plane and look around?”
“No kidding!
Did you learn nothing at flight school?”
Tang Xiao teased.
Wu Jie slapped his forehead and remembered.
When a plane stops for refueling during a transfer, the engines are turned off, along with all electrical equipment.
Flight attendants clean up and prepare meals.
The crew is responsible not only for overseeing the refueling but also for inspecting the airplane.
Especially for intercontinental flights, maintenance takes even longer and cannot afford any oversight.
So, what’s the point of staying on the plane?
Better to accompany Tang Xiao on a visit to the duty-free shop.
“Didn’t you say it wasn’t romantic enough before?
Then let’s be wasteful!”
With a roll, she got out of bed, quickly got dressed, and washed her face.
Before disembarking from the plane, of course, she didn’t forget to take her cell phone and wallet.
Accompanying a woman shopping…
didn’t he need to be prepared to bleed money?
Stepping out of the rest cabin, many colleagues were already chatting excitedly.
“There was a sudden incident in Aseyah today, which startled everyone.
You’ve been anxiously waiting on the plane for a long time!”
“Later, everyone will go shopping.
Expenses under twenty thousand yuan per person will be reimbursed upon presenting the receipt to Secretary Wang!”
As soon as Tang Xiao made this announcement, it sent everyone into a frenzy of excitement, with cheers and screams.
What kind of boss you have determines what kind of employees you have.
Excellent companies never skimp on their excellent employees.
Tang Xiao was no exception.
After the plane had parked, everyone excitedly boarded the shuttle bus heading straight for the terminal building.
It seemed as if many were itching to make a beeline for the duty-free shops.
A few female colleagues had been chatting with Tang Xiao about recent fashion trends and their experiences with cosmetics and skincare products.
Tang Xiao, who often went without makeup and presented her natural face, was actually listening particularly attentively this time.
It really confirmed an old saying:
Women dress up to please those they fancy!
Before long, they arrived at the terminal building.
Regardless of gender, everyone first headed straight for the duty-free shops.
Thanks to Tang Xiao’s generosity, everyone could essentially shop for free up to twenty thousand yuan.
So why hesitate?
Wu Jie followed leisurely behind Tang Xiao and the others, casually browsing.
The duty-free shop was huge, gathering all kinds of international brand products.
Women’s favorite clothes, cosmetics, shoes, and bags were all available in abundance.
Especially the luxury goods, which were much cheaper than at home.
No wonder there’s a profession called ‘overseas purchasing agent’, buying things abroad for people in the country.
After browsing with a few female colleagues for a while, Tang Xiao separated from them.
She still wasn’t accustomed to ‘heavy makeup and gaudy clothes’, and Wu Jie was also feeling dizzy with buzzing ears.
There are just too many kinds of cosmetics for women; with facial cleansers alone there’s cleansing cream, cleansing soap, cleansing milk.
Not to mention makeup removers, foundation, moisturizers, primers…
Damn!
It really is baffling!
Tang Xiao probably also felt dizzy; seldom did she shop for cosmetics in a mall, and she was completely baffled.
She looked around but didn’t buy anything, leaving Wu Jie’s cart still empty.
“Why are you just looking and not buying?” Wu Jie finally couldn’t suppress his curiosity and suddenly asked.
“I…”
Tang Xiao twitched the corner of her mouth slightly, looking around somewhat awkwardly.
“Xin’er isn’t here.
I don’t know what’s appropriate to buy!
Whenever I bought cosmetics before, she would buy them for me!”
Wu Jie sweated profusely: “Then you should at least remember what brands she recommended for you, right?”
“I remember!
But there’s still so much at home.
I barely use them!
Forget the cosmetics, let’s check out some clothes instead!”
In choosing cosmetics, Tang Xiao gave up ‘treatment’ completely
Wu Jie didn’t understand either, so he refrained from commenting.
They made their way to the clothing section.
All kinds of top brands were available.
As for the prices…
If this had been in the past, Wu Jie would have felt they were out of his league, not daring to linger for fear of spoiling something by looking at it too long and needing to compensate.
Even now…
He truly felt it was going to hurt his wallet!
Damn!
A dress as thin as cicada’s wings costing several thousand Gold Coins, wasn’t that practically robbery?
A handbag that looked nothing special, not even as good as his mother’s shopping basket, was priced at over thirty thousand Gold Coins.
As for the shoes…
Their style was nothing to write home about, and the material and design seemed no different from those in domestic trade cities that cost just a few dozen yuan.
But the price was truly moving—twenty-eight thousand!
They even specifically indicated ‘no washing’, meaning keep away from water or they might get damaged easily.
Tang Xiao, on the other hand, seemed as if she were browsing through a vegetable market, strolling indifferently as if she was about to make a purchase at any moment.
This damn thing – was it supposed to be romantic?
It was more like a rhythm to massive bleeding out!
But to win the affection of a beautiful woman, Wu Jie was preparing to go all out…
