"Dragon City?"
Chen Xiaobei was caught by surprise. "Why didn't you tell
earlier if you know that the auction is tonight?" He asked, a little upset. "I don't have a pair of wings to fly whenever I like!"
"You don't need a pair of wings," Luo Puti replied calmly. "Just get on a plane before noon. It's a very special auction; you'll be sorry if you missed it!"
"Fine! I'll check the flight schedules now! I'll definitely co… provided that there's a flight that gets there before noon!" Chen Xiaobei said before hanging up.
"Where are you going?" Xiangyu asked in curiosity.
"I'm going to Dragon City, the capital of China. I don't know what you call it during your ti but that place is worth thousands of years in history!" Chen Xiaobei said as he searched through available flights with his cellphone.
"Can I go there with you? I want to check out the place as well." Xiangyu said.
"Of course! Leave it to !" Chen Xiaobei smiled.
All he had to do was to purchase another flight ticket, but there was another issue – Xiangyu did not have an identification card, a record in the national registry or even a personal profile. It was impossible for him to buy a flight ticket.
"What's up? Everything alright?" Xiangyu asked. He could see that Chen Xiaobei was visibly frustrated.
"Everything's fine! I have to make a call to ask about sothing first!"
In order not to let Xiangyu down, he called the Green Vine Little Elf. Through his First Love Peach business, Chen Xiaobei found out that there was nothing that Wu Junfan could not achieve in Green Vine City – thus, the nickna.
"Xiaobei? How can I help?" Wu Junfan asked as soon as he picked up.
"I need your help." Chen Xiaobei went straight to the "My friend is heading to Dragon City with
but he lost his identification card and his household registration booklet. Do you have a way to get him on a plane?"
"What a coincidence, my private jet is heading to Dragon City as well! Co to the airport now; I'll ask the officer to skip the security procedures!"
"That's aweso! You're the best Green Vine Little Elf! I'll treat you to sothing nice when we return to Green Vine City!" Chen Xiaobei said excitedly.
"Save it. Please help
take care of ngchen!" Wu Junfan suddenly added.
"ngchen? What'd you an?" Chen Xiaobei asked, puzzled.
"ngchen is taking the private jet to Dragon City too! However, Uncle Lan is dealing with sothing outside the country while I have so urgent matters as well! I was worried about letting Lan ngchen travel alone to Dragon City so I'm glad that you were incidentally heading for Dragon City as well! Just take care of her!" Wu said.
"Hehe! You're such a generous man, creating a golden opportunity for your love rival!" Chen Xiaobei said cheerfully.
"I'm not a narrow-minded person; I'm willing to do anything to make sure that ngchen is protected. Also, it's just a one-ti thing and I don't believe you could ever take her away from . You don't' scare !"
"Sure! Anyway, ti to stop dicking around – I can't wait to et my goddess at the airport! Bye!" Chen Xiaobei grinned and packed lightly. He then rushed to the airport imdiately, with Xiangyu in tow. They were treated like VIPs when they arrived; the entire boarding process went a lot smoother than expected!
Inside the private jet.
Lan ngchen held her chin with her fair and elegant hands, staring at nothing in particular.
"Captain, isn't it ti to take off? Why are we still here?" She asked lazily and almost reluctantly – as if she had been forced to travel to Dragon City against her will.
"Master called
just now to inform
that his friend is coming onboard as well," the captain replied. "Let's wait for a while, they should be here soon."
"Wu Junfan's friend? Could it be…" Lan ngchen was surprised – there was only one person she could think of.
"Goddess, I'm sorry to keep you waiting!" Chen Xiaobei boarded the plane happily and quickly sat opposite her.
"Why're you here?" She asked with a frown; it appeared she had a lot in her mind.
"I just wanted to ask you the sa thing! Why didn't you tell
you're traveling to Dragon City? What's your business there?" Chen Xiaobei asked.
"It's none of your business! Why should I tell you? And I already told you plenty of tis that we're just normal friends!" Lan ngchen pursed her lips, stood up and moved to another seat far away from him.
Slightly irked, Chen Xiaobei scratched the tip of his nose. He did not understand why she was being cold; he always thought that his relationship with her was pretty good.
"Xiaobei, is it possible for this huge piece of steel to fly into the sky?" Xiangyu had been taking his sweet ti to admire the jet from every angle before boarding the plane much later. Both Lan ngchen and the captain were surprised to see him; after all, a man with his perfect appearance would beco the center of attention no matter where he went!
Still, they were baffled when he asked a question that would make even make a three-year old kid blush.
"This is my Shixiong!" Chen Xiaobei quickly explained. "He ca from deep within the mountains, so he never seen all these modern technologies!"
"I didn't ask you anything!" Lan ngchen pouted and turned away from Chen.
"Please fasten your seatbelts. The plane is about to take off." The captain had entered the cockpit and announced from the intercom.
Xiangyu was as enthusiastic as a child. He kept peeking out the window to check out the shape of clouds and appeared unable to get bored of it. anwhile, Chen Xiaobei's efforts to chat up Lan ngchen were abject failure; she completely ignored him even after they landed in Dragon City.
"ngchen, allow
to help you to carry the suitcase. You sure packed a lot – do you plan to stay at Dragon City for long?" Chen Xiaobei asked enthusiastically.
"Please get away from ! Soone will carry the suitcase, and you're not them!" Lan ngchen rejected his politeness coolly. She was getting increasingly annoyed once she stepped out from the private jet.
Xiangyu was not pleased either. "Xiaobei, Stop it!" He said with a deep voice. "She's asking you to get lost! Where's the chivalry?!"
"This is not about chivalry! Sothing's wrong." Chen Xiaobei replied softly. "I know her well; the way she's treating
ans she's hiding sothing serious!"
*Vrooom*
*Vrooom*
*Vrooom*
The roar of an engine could be heard from a distance. A golden Ferrari was speeding towards the airport in at least a hundred and eight miles per hour, with two modified Humrs in tow!
It should not be forgotten that this was an airport; the driver of the Ferrari must be a powerful figure in Dragon City or possess so serious guts.
Or both.
"Chen Xiaobei! Leave, now!" Lan ngchen shouted out of the blue.
