Chapter 58
Why Are We Boarding A Private Plane?
Sheng Nanxuan asked, “Is this your first time boarding a plane?”
Gong Mo nodded.
“Don’t worry, just follow me.” With that said, he led her forward.
Gong Mo saw many people queuing at a particular entrance. It looked like a security checkpoint and she walked over instinctively. However, Sheng Nanxuan guided her to turn around. “It’s this way.”
“Oh.” They probably had to go through a different entrance according to the city they were going to.
After walking for a while, they arrived at an empty lane. This lane also looked different from the rest of the lanes.
Gong Mo was a little puzzled and looked up to see a sign hanging from the ceiling. It read “VIP lane”.
“Have we gone the wrong way?”
Sheng Nanxuan said nothing and led her through.
Gong Mo felt uncomfortable. Did they just enter… enter… enter… She looked up in surprise at Sheng Nanxuan. Suddenly, she realized that his aura felt different from before. He had been gentle and agreeable before, but was now stern and solemn. His temperament had undergone a sharp change. Gong Mo felt dazed. At first, Sheng Nanxuan had also been cold, so cold that it was fearsome. However, he gradually became gentler when they decided to get married.
However, he had switched back to a cold demeanor now.
“Nanxuan, why are we walking this way?” asked Gong Mo a little fearfully.
“Our plane is right here.”
“But this is the VIP lane!”
“Is it?” said Sheng Nanxuan dismissively and pointed ahead. “We’re here.”
Gong Mo looked over. A pretty and composed air stewardess was standing by a door.
When Sheng Nanxuan led Gong Mo past her, she bowed and said, “Welcome aboard, Sir and Madam.”
Ill at ease, Gong Mo nodded at her. She then looked through the window after going in and saw other planes on the runways. It didn’t take them long to board the plane. She had thought that they would need to go through a whole lot of trouble.
She suddenly realized something. “We haven’t even undergone a security check!”
“Why are you worried about that?” asked Sheng Nanxuan. “Sit down.”
Gong Mo was a little displeased at his attitude. Why did he always treat her so dismissively? She turned her head, intending to find a seat, but was shocked by what met her gaze.
Weren’t there supposed to be rows of seats on a plane? Why did this look like a living room? It had sofas, a television, a coffee table, and a wine cabinet! Also, these things didn’t have an ordinary character and quality about them. They looked like they were extremely luxurious!
“Is… is this a plane?” she asked Sheng Nanxuan. “Why does the plane look like this?”
“Because it’s a private plane.” Sheng Nanxuan pulled her down to sit on a sofa with him and crossed his legs. He looked extremely domineering.
Gong Mo did not notice his expression, but was shocked by his words. “Why are we in a private plane?” she asked hastily.
“I own one, so of course we’re in one.”
“How can you own one?!” Gong Mo jumped up. “Your dad doesn’t even have one and he’s the wealthiest man in Nanjiang!”
Sheng Nanxuan scoffed. “So what if he’s the wealthiest man in Nanjiang? He’s not the wealthiest man in the country. Even if he can afford a private plane, he won’t be able to handle the upkeep. Do you know how much it costs to maintain and park a plane every year?”
Gong Mo’s eyes widened. “You… You can afford and maintain it?”
“Duh.”
“Didn’t you say that you were penniless?” cried Gong Mo. “You’ve been lying to me all this time!”
Sheng Nanxuan muttered, “That’s because…”
“Boss!” Fang Yang entered out of the blue.
Gong Mo whipped her head to look at him. “‘Boss’? Who are you calling ‘Boss’?”
