Chapter 9
Quite Reliant On Her
The Aviation Administration’s Director, Zheng Peidong, was at the age where the hair by his temples had turned white. He wore a professional suit and had two yellow armbands on his sleeves. There was also a small Aviation Administration badge on his chest. The two members of the senior management behind him were also wearing the same Aviation Administration uniform as him.
The co-pilot Xu Shen and chief stewardess Zhao Yuan both nodded to greet them.
Zheng Peidong walked up to the ward. “Is Captain Fu awake?”
“He is. His condition is alright and he only sustained injuries to his head. Other than that, he is fine.”
Zheng Peidong knocked on the door and a voice rang out, saying ‘come in’. Wen Qiao was like a little tail, following behind them.
When Zhao Yuan turned and saw her, she said politely, “I’m sorry, you cannot enter.”
“Why can’t my girlfriend come in?” Fu Nanli’s deep voice interjected.
Zhao Yuan and Xu Shen’s pupils trembled intensely. When did Captain Fu Nanli, Dongchuan Airline’s number one workaholic who treats the planes as his girlfriend and who had no emotions and desires, have a girlfriend? josei
The effect of this news was too explosive. If those air stewardesses and female ground crews from Dongchuan Airline who adored Captain Fu were to find out about this, the entire Dongpu Airport would be flooded by their tears.
Wen Qiao wore a polite expression and ‘shyly’ walked up to Fu Nanli’s bed.
The man was wearing a dark-checkered sleeping robe and his head was bandaged, with his hair falling down his forehead sluggishly. As the afternoon sun passed through the gaps of the full-length window blinds, it made his high nose, deep eyes, and intense gaze seem to flood the room with emotions. Wen Qiao felt a little guilty from his scorching gaze.
Fu Nanli had a dignified face that seemed to say ‘you can only submit when you are before me’. When he was heartless, his gaze would feel so cold that it was hard to look straight at them. For example, when he was facing a group of irrelevant people.
Yet when he was affectionate, the warmth in his eyes was like the hottest sunlight in California’s summertime. It made Wen Qiao’s ears turn hot in just a short moment.
“Where did you go?” He was a man of few words, and when he spoke, he kept things simple.
Originally, Wen Qiao had wanted to sit on the stool next to the bed, but he reached out his hand and pulled her to the bed.
He acted intimately and affectionately, not hiding anything nor from anyone. It seemed as if he felt that there wasn’t a necessity for that.
Wen Qiao felt as if she was being roasted over a fire, feeling so guilty that she didn’t dare to look straight into his face.
“Something happened at home and I made a trip back. This is your phone. It couldn’t switch on previously so I went to a handphone shop to get it fixed. It’s alright now.”
“Next time, let me know before you leave. Otherwise I’ll look for you when I wake up.”
Wen Qiao was speechless.
Somehow, he seemed to be quite reliant on her?
“Alright, I won’t leave without saying a word in the future.”
The group of people from the Aviation Administration were dumbstruck. Was this the Captain Fu that they knew?
Xu Shen, especially, really felt like crying. He thought that he was Captain Fu’s right-hand man, the one who was closest to him. By the looks of things now, it seemed that he had the wrong impression!
It wasn’t that Captain wasn’t warm, it was just that he wasn’t the person Captain would choose to warm up to!
With an inward sigh, he took a step forward carefully and said, “Captain, the Aviation Administration’s Director Zheng is here. He needs to conduct some basic theory tests as well as conduct checks on your body functionality.”
Fu Nanli seemed a little displeased at Xu Shen’s sudden interjection and a weary gaze flashed in his eyes. Xu Shen’s heart skipped a beat. He seemed to have made Captain unhappy again.
Although Zheng Peidong was Fu Nanli’s superior in name, Wen Qiao could still tell that this elder in his fifties was very respectful toward Fu Nanli.
“As I heard that after Captain Fu got into an accident, you’ve sustained some injuries to your brain and have lost some memories.”
Fu Nanli nodded and said ‘en’, expressing his acknowledgement of the man’s words.
