Ye Mi has been having a hard time lately. She doesn't know who caused this trouble. Feiyang used female pilots as a special promotional project during its 30th anniversary celebration. She has been facing the camera every day these days, either dragging a suitcase around in a pretentious manner or accepting interviews in front of the microphone. She suddenly feels like she has become a celebrity.
That day, Ye Mi and Chen Tao went to the TV station to record a program. When they came out, they saw the black Q7 parked at the door of the TV station. Ye Mi smiled and looked at the person next to him, "I won't go with you. Someone come to pick me up."
Chen Tao looked towards the gate and saw Qiao Yan opening the car door and getting out. He was wearing a sky blue shirt, a very ordinary style, but it looked particularly stylish on him. "I never thought that someone like Teacher Qiao would like someone like you." Chen Tao shrugged.
Ye Mi glanced at him and said, "Virtue! Are you jealous?"
"I am jealous, but I don't know if Teacher Qiao will lead us on this visit. To be honest, I am not used to Teacher Lin leading us."
Ye Mi's eyes darkened, "I think so. Even if he is not the team instructor, he should be one of the pilot representatives. He is the flying divine bird, isn't he?" Ye Mi was not worried. At this time when he had to save both his substance and his reputation, he didn't know who else would be more suitable except Qiao Yan.
She looked up at the man with a proud smile on her face. Qiao Yan took off his sunglasses and waved at them, greeting them and also urging Ye Mi.
"I'll go first." Ye Mi put on her cross-body bag and ran towards the man briskly.
Qiao Yan held her in his arms and kissed her on the forehead, "Is it very hard and annoying?"
Ye Mi wrinkled her nose. "It's so annoying. He's pretending all the time. I really admire Lin Pei. He should be an actor, not a pilot." She complained a little. She didn't know if it was because of He Xiaoning's matter. Anyway, she had some prejudice against this person. He looked awkward, pretentious, and hypocritical.
Qiao Yan remained calm and opened the car door for her. "Let's go. Let's go to the hospital to see Sun Jian first, and then we'll go to the movies in the evening."
Ye Mi was a little surprised and stared at him. Didn't they say that if one was not feeling well, he had to stay at home and not run around
"I will start flying normally next week. The mission schedule is very full, and I am afraid it will not be easy to meet. According to the trainee course schedule, you will also start flying soon." Although I know that flying is very hard, I can only truly experience this hardship when it really happens to me.
He Xiaoning has been in the hospital for ten days, which is indeed a long time for a head injury, but she is afraid to be discharged and return to that home. Lin Pei brings her meals every day as usual, and he always says that the food in the hospital is not tasty and not to her taste. Her appetite? She herself doesn't know what her appetite is. She used to always accommodate Qiao Yan's appetite, but after marrying him, she really has no appetite.
Living with someone you don't love is boring.
She couldn't stay there any longer. The hospital beds were very tight. When the nurse came to see her, she no longer had the courage to pretend that she had a severe headache and nausea. She went to the lobby to complete the discharge procedures for herself. When she turned around, she saw Ye Mi holding Qiao Yan's arm and walking towards her happily.
Their eyes met, and the three of them froze in place. He Xiaoning was wearing a hospital gown, without makeup, and looked particularly haggard. She gently stroked her hair and lowered her head.
Ye Mi held Qiao Yan's hand tighter and moved closer to him, as if she was protecting her things and was afraid that they would be snatched away.
Qiao Yan was afraid and slapped her hand. Ye Mi loosened her arm and looked up at him.
"What's wrong? Are you not feeling well?" Qiao Yan walked up to her, looked her up and down, and asked softly, his eyes full of concern.
He Xiaoning lowered his head and said nothing, but he felt very aggrieved.
Qiao Yan frowned, "Are you alone?"
He Xiaoning raised his head and was about to speak, but his mouth froze halfway open, with a look of fear in his eyes.
Qiao Yan turned around following her gaze and saw Lin Pei walking towards him, holding a thermos bucket in his hand. It was easy to understand that he was a family member who came to visit the patient and deliver food. Qiao Yan felt relieved, but he couldn't help but frown when he saw Lin Pei's resentful look.
"Xiaoning has been feeling unwell recently, so she came to the hospital for a checkup and to recuperate." Lin Pei put on a smile again, "Are you doing... a pregnancy check-up?" He spoke in a joking tone, as if he did it on purpose. He glanced at Ye Mi, whose face was flushed, and then looked at He Xiaoning, whose face was pale.
"We are here to see Sun Jian. He just had surgery." Qiao Yan pulled Ye Mi over and put one arm around her waist. "Ye Zi is just starting her career, so we won't have children for the time being. We are not in a hurry. You can think about it. It's hard work, so why not take this opportunity to let Xiao Ning come down to work as a ground staff."
This is actually what Qiao Yan has always thought. Flying is actually very hard work, and the salary of a flight attendant is not that high compared to their work. It’s just that she doesn’t want to stay idle at home, otherwise he can support her.
Thinking of this, Qiao Yan lowered his head, with an inexplicably melancholy expression on his face. At that time, it seemed that everything in the future had been planned out, and just when he was waiting for it to bear fruit, the situation suddenly changed. Even though he has found true love again now, when facing this pair of people, he still sighs when he thinks of the past.
Lin Pei clenched his hands tightly, his knuckles turned white, and he tried his best to suppress his anger. He walked to He Xiaoning and said, "By that time, Xiaoning may not work anymore and focus on taking care of her husband and children at home. I can support him."
The scene became awkward for a moment. Ye Mi stepped forward, took Qiao Yan's arm, and continued to giggle, "Let's go first. Datou is waiting anxiously."
Qiao Yan nodded, said goodbye to Lin Pei and He Xiaoning, and followed Ye Mi. Qiao Yan didn't say a word along the way, but he held Ye Mi's hand tighter and tighter. Ye Mi followed closely behind him, looking up at his resolute back, as if he was holding her future and happiness.
The following days became a little hectic. Ye Mi was still busy with the 30th anniversary promotion. She finally understood what it meant that scarcity makes things valuable. Because of the endless filming and interviews, she missed several simulators and follow-up flights. Ye Mi was really annoyed that day, "Instructor Lin, I think as a flight student, my main task is to do a good job in flight training. With all this back and forth, I have fallen behind a lot more than others. They have already followed the flight, but I am still on the ground." Thinking of this, Ye Mi felt wronged.
Lin Pei turned around and looked at her curiously. Don't all girls want to be on camera and become big stars? He frowned slightly and said, "This is the company's arrangement. I can't refuse you. Besides, as an employee of Feiyang, it is my duty to contribute to the interests of the company."
Ye Mi was choked there. At this moment, she suddenly missed Qiao Yan. If he were here, he would definitely use his identity as an instructor to block these things that were not doing their job properly for his students. But he was in Milan now.
Lin Pei looked at the melancholy Ye Mi, not quite understanding what she was thinking, "You should try your best to cooperate with the company's activities."
Ye Mi stopped talking, feeling that there was really nothing to communicate with him, and she vaguely felt that Lin Pei seemed to be in a bad mood. For some reason, she felt that this was related to He Xiaoning, and she felt a little uneasy.
It was a lonely night and Ye Mi was a little bored. She strolled around the snack street by herself, stuffed her stomach with spicy skewers, stinky tofu and other things, and went into the department store with a burp. Seeing that all the TV anchors were dressed in fancy clothes today, she suddenly felt that she should change a little and should not act like a tomboy all day long. Men always like beautiful women with femininity, this is beyond doubt. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but smile, and wanted to give Qiao Yan a big transformation when he came back.
She walked around the women's clothing area twice, looking at those colorful clothes, she felt that they would look weird in them. She was used to wearing T-shirts at the night market, so she didn't have the courage to try on clothes here. Just when she was about to give up, she heard someone calling her name softly. She stiffened her neck, the voice was too familiar, and turned around to see that it was He Qingwen.
"Why are you here?" Ye Mi was surprised and looked around. This floor was full of women's clothing. He thought about it and looked at him, with a disdainful arc on his lips.
He Qingwen frowned, "Don't get the wrong idea, I'm here to accompany my mother."
Ye Mi was a little puzzled, "How do you know what I'm thinking? Are you the worm in my stomach?"
He Qingwen turned his head to the side, really afraid of being seen and heard by acquaintances. What kind of metaphor is this? What is the meaning of roundworms in the stomach? "How can you talk like that? You call that a metaphor? Do you have a brain?"
"Qingwen!" Jiang Mingming came out of the fitting room and saw his son talking to a girl. "How do you talk to a girl?"
He Qingwen looked back at his mother and immediately became respectful. Ye Mi also stood up straight and bowed to the proprietress, "Hello, auntie."
Jiang Mingming had an impression of Ye Mi. She thought this girl was interesting from the first time she saw her. Because she lost a daughter, in Jiang Mingming's mind her daughter was the most perfect. There were not many girls who could make a good impression on her, but Ye Mi made her like her very much.
"Ms. Ye."
Ye Mi's eyes widened, his mouth half open in surprise, "You still remember me?"
"Our Qingwen has such high standards, how could I not remember the girl he likes?" Jiang Mingming smiled with a happy expression on his face.
Ye Mi's face suddenly turned red. She twisted the strap of her bag, not knowing what to say. He Qingwen looked at her embarrassment and finally couldn't bear it. He stood beside his mother and said, "Ye Mi is already married. She is the second young lady of Qiao Jiang. But she hid it from Qiao Yan. Your son was just being sentimental."
Jiang Mingming's smile froze for a moment, and he looked at his son in surprise, "Really? I thought she would be my daughter-in-law." His tone was full of regret, and it didn't sound like a joke at all. This made Ye Mi even more embarrassed. She played with her short hair, "Aunt, you are such a joker. And I'm not the second young lady of Qiao Jiang. I'm just Qiao Yan's wife. Their family doesn't like me very much."
This was why Jiang Mingming was surprised. They were all in this circle and had never heard that Qiao Jiang had a second young lady. She held Ye Mi's hand and said, "It will be fine slowly. Mrs. Qiao will definitely not like the way you are dressed. Let me help you choose two suitable clothes." Then she took her hand and led her to a store.
Ye Mi was a little confused. Why did he go shopping with the boss lady? He turned around and looked at He Qingwen, asking for help with his eyes, but he seemed not to understand and pushed her up. "Let's go. It's good to have someone to help you. My mother is famous for her taste."
Ye Mi didn't want to reject the other person's kindness and face, so she just followed him in confusedly. In her mind, she was still thinking about the jealous look in the man's eyes. If Qiao Yan knew about this, she would definitely die a miserable death.
Ye Mi shuddered. Jiang Mingming turned around and looked at her, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
"Um! Oh, no, no!" Ye Mi felt that his brain and mouth were no longer in sync. "Aunt, I'm not used to wearing these. I'd better not buy them."
"How can that be? If you are Qiao Yan's wife, you have to get used to these things. Your husband is not an ordinary man. Now that he can fly a plane, he may become another banner in this business circle in the future. I have always asked Qingwen to learn from Qiao Yan, but he just won't make progress."
"Mom, how can you be so arrogant as to help others gain prestige while destroying your own morale? Why don't I make progress? Tomorrow I will set a rule in the company that all pilots are not allowed to work part-time." He Qingwen was unhappy.
But in Ye Mi's ears, only Jiang Mingming's words echoed. She could tell that Qiao Yan should be very famous in the upper class. She bit her lips. This feeling didn't seem good. The inferiority brought about by the huge gap between them began to play tricks on her heart again.
"You also know about Qiao Yan's affairs?" Ye Mi asked tentatively.
Jiang Mingming looked at her and smiled. She was really a simple child. "There are only a few wealthy families in this city. Qiao Yan is such an outstanding child. He has been a role model for these children since he was young. But he has not been very obedient since he came back from the United States. Mrs. Qiao doesn't often mention him and she gets angry. But I think it's good. Young people should have their own ideas." She handed her a little black dress while speaking. "This one is pretty good and can be worn everyday."
Ye Mi was stunned, "Are we not a good match? There's such a big gap between us." She didn't know what had happened to her, she just asked this question in a daze.
Jiang Mingming was stunned for a moment, then laughed again, "Love means a good match. If the distance is big, you should run towards it with big strides. There is also a gap between me and Qingwen's father. I was just an ordinary flight attendant back then, and others also said that I was a Cinderella who married into a wealthy family. Aren't we good too? The most important thing for two people to be together is the relationship. Everything else can be overcome as long as you are brave enough."
Ye Mi seemed to be encouraged. She nodded seriously, took the little skirt and went into the fitting room.
He Qingwen was somewhat dissatisfied, and stood aside and muttered to himself, "I don't know who your biological child is." In his heart, it would be best if they broke up as soon as possible.
