Huayu: This celebrity doesn't follow the rules.

Chapter 10 My First Encounter with Her

Xiamen Gaoqi Airport
At 6 a.m., the newly renovated glass curtain wall of Terminal 3 refracted the morning glow into fragments.

Tour groups with suitcases were bustling around the check-in counters, while promotional videos for "Beautiful Xiamen" played on the electronic screens.

When Jiang Ye threw his backpack onto the X-ray machine, he smelled the distinctive salty and fishy smell in the air, a unique odor found only in airports in port cities.

He has finished his month-long internship on the set of "The Left Ear," and the crew will head to Dongji Island today to continue filming.

He, on the other hand, needed to go to his uncle's house first before heading to Yanjing.

School starts soon!

"Please show your boarding pass."

He was looking down to take out his ID when he suddenly heard a crisp "click-click" sound.

Turning my head, I saw a familiar figure!

Chen Duling stood in the morning light wearing a light pink chiffon dress, the hem of which swayed gently in the breeze, like a cherry blossom bud.

She had clearly dressed up carefully today; her long, black hair cascaded smoothly over her shoulders, with the ends curling slightly in a playful arc.

Her fair cheeks were lightly made up, her eyelashes were curled just right, and her lips were covered with a layer of crystal-clear peach-colored lip gloss, which shone alluringly in the sunlight.

"What a coincidence?" She looked up casually. "I...I'm here to pick up a classmate."

Jiang Ye raised an eyebrow at her empty hands: "Don't you hold up a sign when you're picking someone up?"

"None of your business!" Chen Duling was clearly a little angry. "But you, you just left without saying a word?"

"Don't you know how to say goodbye?"

"Well, Xiao Chen, I don't like goodbyes..."

"Don't call me Xiao Chen!" She blushed instantly, like an angry rabbit.

"What's her name? Teacher Chen? Chen Duling? Or..."

"Call me sister." She raised her chin, revealing her slender and graceful neck.

Jiang Ye shook his head: "Dream on."

"Then, then..." Chen Duling bit her lower lip, her voice growing softer and softer, "...call me Dudu."

The boy's eyes lit up, and he pressed his advantage, moving closer: "You said it yourself, beep beep~"

Suddenly, the boarding announcement came on, and Jiang Ye had no choice but to drag his luggage toward the security checkpoint.

Halfway there, he suddenly turned around and ran back, stopping in front of Chen Duling in surprise.

"What...what now?" The girl took a half-step back warily.

Jiang Ye took a deep breath: "Dudu, can I... give you a hug?"

Chen Duling froze instantly, her long eyelashes blinking rapidly.

"cannot!!!"

"Sister Dudu, don't be so stingy. Isn't it normal for friends to hug when saying goodbye?"

"Or do you have other feelings for me?"

? ? ? ? ?

Chen Duling stared down at her white leather shoes for a long while before nodding almost imperceptibly.

Jiang Ye carefully pulled her into his arms.

The girl's body was as soft as a cloud, and her hair exuded a fresh gardenia fragrance.

He felt her arms gently encircle his waist, and through the thin fabric of their clothes, he could clearly feel each other's accelerated heartbeats.

The only drawback might be that the tactile sensation in front of me wasn't quite right...

"Jiang Ye!" Chen Duling suddenly pushed him away, blushing as she straightened her disheveled skirt. "You should board the plane!"

The boy laughed and backed away, saying, "Okay, beep beep~"

As he approached the security checkpoint, he looked back again.

Chen Duling was still standing there, the morning light gilding her with a golden edge, her pink dress fluttering, making her look as beautiful as a painting.

She seemed surprised that he would turn around. In her panic, she subconsciously raised her small hand and waved, then immediately lowered it, pretending that she was just fixing her hair.

Jiang Ye imprinted this scene deeply in his mind, and as he turned to walk towards the boarding gate, he couldn't suppress the smile on his lips.

...The Xiamen Airlines business class in 2014 had just been upgraded, and the deep blue leather seats gleamed with a delicate sheen in the morning light.

"Hello Mr. Jiang, your seat is 2A."

The flight attendant took his boarding pass and lightly swiped her finger across the tablet. "Today's flight is estimated to be 2 hours and 15 minutes. We're ready..."

Jiang Ye sank into the seat, his knees still a long way from the seat in front of him.

This 1.2-meter spacing is much more spacious than economy class.

"Your breakfast menu." The flight attendant handed over a booklet with a gold-embossed cover. "We have either Xiamen-style satay noodles or a Western-style set meal to choose from."

"Satay noodles, please!"

The meal was more refined than I expected; the satay noodles were served in a bone china bowl, and the side dishes included fresh shrimp and squid rings.

Jiang Ye was eating while looking at his phone when the payment for his work on "The Left Ear" arrived in his account.

The script supervisor's salary was 4500, which was later increased to 8000 when he was promoted to assistant director. In addition, Su Youpeng gave him a red envelope privately, so he earned nearly 20,000 this month.

This business class ticket from Xiamen to Chongqing cost him 3680 yuan, which is almost one-fifth of his income.

“This is life…” Jiang Ye took a sip of the coffee the flight attendant had just handed him, looking out the window at the receding silhouette of Xiamen Island.

Now that he's been reborn, he's here to enjoy this life!

His current plan is quite simple.

Achieve financial freedom before the age of 28, and then travel the world with the girls.

……

"Dear passengers, our plane is about to land at Terminal 2 of Chongqing Jiangbei International Airport..."

As soon as I turned it on, the phone started vibrating wildly.

The three characters "Lin Xiaoman" jumped around merrily on the screen.

His cousin, who is two years younger than him, is a senior in high school at Tongliang Middle School in Chongqing.

"Brother! You've arrived in Chongqing?" The voice on the other end of the phone made his eardrums vibrate. "Go to Qinyuan in the TL district and buy me some tiramisu! It's the one in Longcheng Tianjie!"

Jiang Ye held his phone ten centimeters away: "Little brat, do I look like someone who would run errands for others?"

"Hey! Bro...!" came a stomping sound from the phone. "My classmate said the new strawberry flavor is amazing! And..."

"Didn't you say you were going to bring me Xiamen pies?"

"The pie was pressed into a pie chart shape in the suitcase."

"Jiang! Ye!" the girl called out his name angrily, then suddenly changed the subject, "Um, brother,... my dad still has a few bottles of 30-year-old Moutai in his liquor cabinet..."

"Brother, do you want it? I'll steal it all for you!"

"Of course I don't want to! Lin Xiaoman, how could you do such a thing? Your dad would be furious if he found out!"

"It's okay, brother! I feel like we're real siblings, family!"

"What flavor do you want? Are 10 enough?"

"...Too much...!"

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Ye shook his head and smiled bitterly.

As I dragged my suitcase into Longcheng Tianjie, the sweet aroma of Qinyuan Bakery wafted into the street.

The wind chimes tinkled as the door was pushed open.

His gaze was instantly drawn to the girl in front of the display case.

She was wearing a simple white T-shirt and light blue denim shorts, with her hair tied in a high ponytail.

He was bending over, staring at the tiramisu in the glass case, his nose almost touching the glass.

Sunlight streamed through the floor-to-ceiling windows, illuminating her slender neck and her slightly trembling eyelashes.

The girl suddenly straightened up, and Jiang Ye was able to see her full appearance.

Her round almond-shaped eyes were very large, and there was a faint dimple on one side of her cheek.

is her?
