199: 199 Picking Up from the Airport (Requesting Monthly Votes!) 199: 199 Picking Up from the Airport (Requesting Monthly Votes!) It wasn’t until they walked out of the elevator and ca to the underground parking lot that Shi Qianxi seed to still be angry, not communicating with Sun Xiyu at all.
Sun Xiyu followed behind and naturally wouldn’t initiate conversation, but the weirdness in his heart grew stronger.
How had this witch changed so much overnight?
Reaching her Aston Martin, Shi Qianxi finally stopped and turned around.
“Why are you following ?”
Sun Xiyu frowned, “Aren’t we going to pick up Aunt ng together?”
“Don’t you have your own car?”
Sun Xiyu was at a loss for words.
Was it necessary to drive two cars to pick soone up at the airport?
If they took two cars, was there still a point in going together?
However, Shi Qianxi couldn’t care less about him; she opened her car door, sat in, and soon the Aston Martin started up and headed for the exit.
The abandoned Sun Xiyu watched the Aston Martin drive away, his expression darkening with each passing mont.
Despite his self-composure, he now felt an almost irresistible urge to curse.
Anyone unaware of the situation would probably think he was desperately chasing after this witch!
Though frustrated, Sun Xiyu was still soone who understood the bigger picture.
Suppressing his emotions, he had no choice but to head to his Lamborghini.
The traffic in East Sea was always unsatisfactory.
It took over an hour to reach the international airport.
“Shi Qianxi, where are you?”
Upon arrival, Sun Xiyu realized that the woman, Shi Qianxi, wasn’t there.
“On my way.”
There was the sound of heavy traffic in the background.
Sun Xiyu stood beside the Lamborghini, ignoring the flirtatious glances from so young won, holding his phone, and said with a severe face, “Didn’t you leave first?
Why are you so slow?”
“I didn’t have breakfast.
I can’t starve myself, can I?”
The other party was brazen.
Alright then.
This lady had forsaken the hotel’s breakfast and had actually run off to eat sothing on the road.
Sun Xiyu had to admit defeat.
“Can’t you speed up a little?”
“The road is jamd with cars.
How can I go any faster?
Do you want to see get into a car accident?”
Sun Xiyu’s head filled with exasperation but he reminded her in a subdued voice, “The flight is about to arrive.”
“Aren’t you already there?
Let’s leave it at that.
I’m driving.”
Before Sun Xiyu could respond, the call was disconnected on the other end.
Listening to the busy tone, Sun Xiyu breathed heavily, wishing he could smash his phone.
But people in our society cannot always do as they wish.
Shi Qianxi might be capricious, but he did not have such freedom.
Putting away his phone, Sun Xiyu once again chose to swallow his pride.
After taking a few deep breaths to calm down and adjust his expression, only then did he head into the airport with an impassive face.
“Attention all passengers waiting to pick up arriving travelers: Flight LH256 from London will arrive at the station at 10:45 AM.
Please prepare for pickup.”
Listening to the clear announcent, Sun Xiyu, who had already reached the pickup point, looked back but still couldn’t spot Shi Qianxi.
He didn’t understand why his parents insisted on making him marry such a woman.
The Shi Family indeed had wealth and power, but did that an his happiness had to be sacrificed?!
A dense crowd started pouring out.
Sun Xiyu stopped his wandering thoughts and prepared a modest and gentle smile.
“Aunt ng.”
Soti later, a woman appeared in his line of sight, wearing a black trench coat and sunglasses, standing out even within the crowd.
“Xi Yu, long ti no see.
You’ve beco even more handso.”
The woman approached with a smile, her hair simply tied up, not carrying any luggage.
Though middle-aged, she still maintained an air of elegance and a unique charm.
Sun Xiyu replied with a “shy” smile, “Aunt ng is as charming as ever.”
“Oh, you sure have a sweet tongue.”
The woman, whose eyes and brows bore a resemblance to Shi Qianxi, glanced around.
“Where’s Qian Qian?”
Sun Xiyu smiled, “She’s still on the road, should be arriving soon.”
“Didn’t you co together?”
Sun Xiyu felt a bit awkward, “She said she wanted to eat sothing, so she told to co here first.”
“That girl, making her own mother wait for her.”
The woman shook her head and laughed, “Let’s go.”
They walked towards the exit of the airport.
“I heard your parents intend to have Qian Qian beco the daughter-in-law of the Sun Family?”
The woman asked with a smile.
“Mhm.”
Although he felt nothing but aversion to this arranged marriage, at this mont, Sun Xiyu dared not show the slightest dissatisfaction.
“Heh.”
With a chuckle, the woman said playfully, “I’ve always been worried that with Qian Qian’s personality, no family would want her.”
Sun Xiyu kept silent.
“How are you two getting along now?”
“Not bad.”
The smile on Sun Xiyu’s face was rigid, clearly insincere.
“Xi Yu, Aunt ng has watched you grow up since you were little, and there’s no need to lie in front of .
That girl is my daughter, and no one knows her temperant better than her mother.
I suppose she hasn’t made your life easier during this ti, has she?”
What could Sun Xiyu possibly say at a ti like this?
Other than a bitter smile, it was still a bitter smile.
The woman adjusted her sunglasses on the bridge of her nose.
Even though she hadn’t been in the country for the past couple of years, through a few simple exchanges and Sun Xiyu’s deanor, she could already perceive quite a bit.
“Your parents are too selfish.
Don’t worry, Aunt ng will take care of you.
If you disagree with this marriage, I will talk to your parents.”
Upon hearing this, Sun Xiyu’s heart leaped with joy, and he subconsciously wanted to nod in agreent, but in the end, reason restrained his impulse.
This marriage had been discussed between the two families for so long; how could it be so easy to say it’s canceled just like that?
Moreover, even if the other party really was willing to stand up for him, his parents would still know he had been causing trouble behind the scenes.
So Sun Xiyu maintained a thought-provoking silence and did not continue the conversation.
As they walked out of the airport, the woman said, “Call that girl.”
Sun Xiyu took out his phone and was about to dial when, coincidentally at that mont, an Aston Martin approached unhurriedly from a distance.
He put away his phone.
“Aunt ng, Qian Qian is here.”
The Aston Martin stopped next to them.
The car door opened.
Shi Qianxi excitedly jumped out.
“Mom!”
She plunged into the woman’s embrace like a swallow returning to the nest.
“So grown up and still not afraid of being laughed at.”
Though she said so, her face was filled with indulgence.
Sun Xiyu stood by, silent.
Despite her resolute claims to take a stand for him, in reality, the mother had played no small part in cultivating Shi Qianxi’s capriciousness to this day.
“Mom, if you didn’t co back, my dad was going to find a new mom!”
Miss Shi looked up, as outspoken as ever.
Sun Xiyu’s eye twitched, and then he quickly pretended to look around, as if he hadn’t heard anything.
“What nonsense are you talking about!”
The woman scolded angrily.
“I’m not talking nonsense.
My dad, he…”
“That’s enough.”
The woman’s tone beca authoritative.
Miss Shi pouted and fell silent.
“Xi Yu, you should head back first.
Aunt ng needs to rest for a bit, I’ll treat you to a al another day.”
It was indeed very tiring to fly all the way back from London.
Sun Xiyu nodded.
“Then, Aunt ng, I’ll be going.”
The woman nodded with a smile.
Sun Xiyu walked towards the bull that was being sneakily photographed by many.
“Mom, get in the car.”
Shi Qianxi took her mother’s hand, appearing indifferent to Sun Xiyu’s departure.
The woman pulled open the passenger door of the Aston Martin, about to get in, but suddenly her brows furrowed tightly.
She saw a black object coiled up in the back seat, carelessly tossed there.
