Chapter 215: A Glimpse Of The Airport
Su Wan looked at the headline and her smile faded. There were complicated emotions in her eyes.
Didn’t Su Yurou say she loved Gu Zihang? Why would she get involved with a male beautician?
Moreover, they had only just gotten married. Now they were going to part, how fast!
Su Wan ma.s.saged her brows and recalled the dispute between her and the two of them. She stared blankly.
She had once thought her relations.h.i.+p with Gu Zihang would be smooth sailing, long lasting until the end, but fate was good at playing tricks. Reality had proven that Gu Zihang was not a reliable man.
Su Yurou had gone out of her way to s.n.a.t.c.h Gu Zihang from her. Su Wan thought that they would both be attached to one another to the point of being unable to part but in less than a month, things happened.
Su Wan supported her forehead with one hand and let out a sigh softly.
Jiang Xuecheng who had just taken his shower saw Su Wan in deep thoughts. He walked quickly toward the couch and stood behind her as he asked, “What’s wrong?”
Su Wan raised her head and smiled at Jiang Xuecheng. Then, she pa.s.sed her phone to him.
“Nothing. I just saw the news that Gu Zihang and Su Yurou are about to divorce.”
Jiang Xuecheng raised his brows and there was a sense of inquiry in his eyes. “Wan Wan, don’t tell me you sympathize with them.”
Upon hearing what Jiang Xuecheng said, Su Wan laughed.
“Nonsense, I’d have to be Mother Mary to be able to sympathize with them…”
She was not a person who would torture herself!
“Why did you sigh, then?” Jiang Xuecheng sat beside Su Wan and looked steadily at her. “You can’t be still thinking of Gu Zihang, can you?”
When Jiang Xuecheng’s faint voice entered her ears, she detected a trace of jealousy.
Su Wan’s smile deepened and hit Jiang Xuecheng’s shoulder. “I’ve said I don’t like the sc.u.mbag anymore. Are you still jealous of what happened eight hundred years ago? I’m going to laugh at you!”
As Su Wan spoke, her look turned more solemn.
“I just feel that time pa.s.ses very quickly and things change more quickly. There’s a baffling gloominess in me.”
Jiang Xuecheng heard Su Wan’s sentimental sigh and rubbed her head, “You’re being silly again. No matter how the outside world changes, I’ll always be with you.”
Upon hearing this, Su Wan gazed at the man beside her. The light shone on Jiang Xuecheng’s cheeks casted a deep silhouette and he looked like he was in a trance.
However, Su Wan did not miss the gentleness in Jiang Xuecheng’s eyes.
Jiang Xuecheng would always say things that moved Su Wan with a calm tone of voice.
No, it was probably not just verbally but his actions were more than his words.
Warmth arose in Su Wan’s heart. She smiled and the two shallow dimples appeared on her cheeks.
“You must remember what you say today. Don’t ever forget.”
To have someone willing to accompany you to the end of your life would be the greatest blessing.
Su Wan seemed to be able to see their future and felt that growing old was not so terrifying.
When her face and Jiang Xuecheng’s face were full of wrinkles, she hoped their legs would still be strong and that they could both go to far-away places to see different sceneries.
***
On Sunday afternoon, at about 1 pm, Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng drove out of Fontainebleau toward the highway. The S City airport was situated in a suburb quite a distance away from Fontainebleau.
However, one could arrive at the airport in half an hour using the highway when there was no traffic congestion.
Su Wan had received two text messages from Xu Ziyao in the morning, asking if they would go to the airport and when.
Su Wan had mild obsessive-compulsive disorder. Usually, she liked to arrive earlier than the appointed time. So, she planned to depart from home at twelve noon and arrive at S City International Airport at 1 pm.
However, Jiang Xuecheng kept insisting that they don’t rush. Su Wan dared not drive so she had no choice but to wait till 1 pm before they could depart.
On the way to S City International Airport, Su Wan was not at ease, probably because she would see a person who looked a little like her. Her heart was bound to feel peculiar.
Su Wan opened the car window slightly and allowed the warm breeze to enter the car. She seemed to have smelt the smell of plants.
Jiang Xuecheng could sense Su Wan’s emotions. He pressed the radio b.u.t.ton in the car and a soothing piano music filled the air inside the car.
“Wan Wan, do you remember the time we first met? That’s the bridge…”
Su Wan blinked and blushed. “You still have the cheek to mention that. I’ve not met such a shameless man like you in the past…”
Who would tug a girl and force a kiss onto her on the street?
Moreover, that happened in the middle of the night. Now, when Su Wan recalled it, she thought it was frightening.
Jiang Xuecheng lowered his voice and his lips curved into a teasing smile. “Why don’t we revisit that scene when we return later?”
Su Wan rolled her eyes and said, “Go ahead and revisit it yourself!”
Jiang Xuecheng couldn’t help laughing and the teasing between his eyebrows did not fade away.
Arriving at S City International Airport, Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng finally found a parking s.p.a.ce.
The airport was crowded, perhaps because it was a Sunday. If not for Jiang Xuecheng who watched over Su Wan in front of him, they might be parted by the crowd.
Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng waited for about ten minutes before the flight Sheng An’ning and Jiang Haoxuan were on arrived from Dong Chen Country.
Many pa.s.sengers were on this flight. To avoid overcrowding, Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng stood at the farthest part of the arrival hall.
When most of the crowd had dispersed, Su Wan was anxious. Why didn’t they see Sheng An’ning and Jiang Haoxuan?
Su Wan blinked at Jiang Xuecheng. “Don’t you want to call Jiang Haoxuan and Sheng An’ning? It seems that the people on this flight have almost all gotten off the plane.”
Jiang Xuecheng looked at Su Wan helplessly and finally took out his phone reluctantly. He started to dial Jiang Haoxuan’s number.
However, before the call could get through, a sweet voice was heard from afar.
“Brother Xuecheng!”
The voice was pleasant. It was not very loud but seemed to have covered all other noises in an instant and entered one’s heart.
Su Wan remembered this voice. She pursed her lips and looked following the direction of Jiang Xuecheng’s gaze.
Very quickly, the image of a lady came into sight. It was too meagre to simply describe her as pretty.
She was like the crescent moon hanging in the sky, clear and beautiful, making the airport lights seem dim.
Everyone who saw her couldn’t move their gazes away for a moment.
