1322 Emergency Call
Ling Lan slowly pushed Li Lanfeng onboard Li Yinfei’s cruise ship.
“Let’s go to the control room to take a look,” While they were going through the corridors of the ship, Li Lanfeng suddenly broke the silence. Luckily, he was well-versed in imitating so he imitated Li Yinfei’s voice to near perfection. If you didn’t listen to it carefully, you might not be able to notice the difference.
Elder Brother Kun looked at Li Yinfei in surprise. In the past, Li Yinfei never liked to interact with the crew members of the ship. She felt that they were all savages, and secretly looked down on them because of so.
“They’ve been guarding the ship for many days. It must have been hard for them. I should express my thanks to them,” Li Lanfeng flashed a sincere smile as she spoke gently.
It looked like Li Yinfei finally realised that she needed to maintain a good relationship with the crew members. Elder Brother Kun was elated by the fact that Li Yinfei seemed to have turned over a new leaf. It should be known that frequent travelers like them were most afraid of offending the crew members that defended the safety of cruise ships. In the past, Li Yinfei despised these rogues and always acted arrogantly in front of them, infuriating them to no end.
Li Yinfei was able to disguise her real self perfectly in front of outsiders, always appearing amiable and gentle to the public. However, she couldn’t hide her deep-seated arrogance from the people who worked closely with her. This was her weakness. Some might say that she was just being her real self but if she acted arrogantly all the time, it was very easy to dislike her. As her manager, Elder Brother Kun took care of many conflicts for her. His conflict management was the only reason why the team was still able to work together.
Just like that, Elder Brother Kun led Li Lanfeng and her group into the control room.
The moment they entered, the lively atmosphere in the control room turned cold.
The captain of the ship noticed the change in atmosphere. He turned around and saw Elder Brother Kun. He also saw Li Yinfei and the other people behind Elder Brother Kun. He frowned instantly.
“Old Kun, why are you here?” He forced himself to smile as he got up and welcomed the group. While he was welcoming the group, he sent an inquisitive gaze at Elder Brother Kun. He seemed to be asking why he brought the mess of a person to the control room.
Elder Brother Kun laughed. “Old Lin, young miss heard that you’re having a hard time so she came to visit you to express her gratitude.”
Old Lin was instantly dumbfounded when he heard such an unbelievable statement. He looked at the lady who was smiling gently and weirdly enough, she didn’t have the arrogant aura around her anymore.
Did the military teach this proud young miss how to be polite and grateful?
Li Lanfeng didn’t seem to notice Old Lin’s astonishment. He just continued maintaining his perfect and amiable smile.
He was used to wearing this smiling mask. No matter how close the person in front of him was, even if it was the family head of the Li family, his grandfather, his facade wouldn’t disappear.
When he saw Li Yinfei continuing to smile even under his questioning gaze, the captain finally started to believe that Li Yinfei was here to thank them. She didn’t come here because Old Kun persuaded her to come. She also didn’t seem forced to smile at them. Her smile looked really genuine to him.
The captain’s expression gradually softened. In reality, it was hard to hate someone with such a pretty face. However, Li Yinfei’s personality was really bad to even have a good impression of her even under the guise of her beautiful appearance. Her horrendous personality slowly corroded the beautiful image they had of this goddess. In the end, they completely forgot about her beauty and only remembered her irritating personality.
The captain was used to seeing many beautiful ladies in the world but after Li Yinfei changed her personality, he started to feel that she wasn’t so loathing anymore.
Ling Lan quickly glanced at Li Lanfeng and smiled secretly. This fellow actually activated his innate talent, Bewitch, to gain favor with the captain and the crew members.
“It must be hard on you recently.” Li Lanfeng bowed to thank them while being seated in the wheelchair.
Whether it was his voice or his expression, they were all filled with sincerity. The sincerity was clearly delivered to everyone through their eyes, and ears, and eventually, to their hearts.
The crew members, who had a stiff expression on their face, finally smiled in a relaxed manner after hearing Li Yinfei’s calming voice. Their gaze turned friendly as they looked at her.
Elder Brother Kun was satisfied with Li Yinfei’s performance. He shouted loudly, “That’s right. All of you had to stay on the ship while we were gone so you didn’t have a chance to walk around the Planet General. It must have been hard on all of you. Thank you for your efforts.”
Captain Old Lin laughed out loud when he heard him. He patted Elder Brother Kun’s back and replied, “Why are you being so polite? We’re all in this together. Don’t worry. We’ll be in charge of the safety of the flight.”
Li Yinfei smiled and nodded gratefully at him. She looked curiously at the crew members who were preparing for flight. Then, she asked shyly, “Captain Lin, can I take a look at how you prepare for a flight?”
The captain no longer loathed Li Yinfei so he wouldn’t reject such a small request. He waved his hand indifferently and said, “Sure. Miss Li, you are free to roam around. If there’s anything you are curious about, just ask them.”
Li Yinfei pushed herself to the pilot excitedly after the captain agreed to her request. A pilot’s skill was very important in ensuring that the cruise ship was able to leave its secured dock quickly and take off perfectly.
Luo Lang’s calm personality also took over the main body, and he walked towards the crew member who was controlling the engine.
As for Ling Lan, she continued to stand behind Elder Brother Kun which also meant that she was standing behind the captain.
If the take-off was smooth, the three of them wouldn’t act. However, Ling Lan would never leave her life to luck. This was the reason why they found an opportunity to come to the control station. If any unexpected problems arised, they would snatch over the control of the starship and personally drive the starship out of Planet General.
“Report. Captain, the engine is ready. Ship Anmi is prepared to depart.”
After waiting for three minutes, they finally received the report that the engine was ready. Li Lanfeng clenched his fist instinctively.
“Old Kun, are we leaving now or do we have to wait longer?” Old Lin asked Elder Brother Kun who was beside him. He didn’t know if there was any other request for them.
“There’s no need to wait. Let’s take off now. I want to see the scene when the cruise ship takes off.” Before Elder Brother Kun could reply, Li Yinfei answered the question for him excitedly. Her face was slightly red due to her excitement, making her seem even more mesmerizing. The crew members who were looking at her felt that their souls were being sucked away.
Old Lin coughed and regained his composure. He said, “In that case, let’s prepare to leave.”
“Muzi, contact the control tower and tell them that we’re leaving. Ask them to arrange a lane for us and a time for take-off.”
“Yes, captain.” The crew member called Muzi quickly contacted the control tower of Planet General. Soon, the control tower gave them their schedule.
“Time in departure is in 15 seconds through Lane HKL93.” Muzi immediately reported what he heard to his captain.
“Okay. All crew members! Be in your positions!” Old Lin’s gaze turned serious.
Taking off seemed very simple but if it wasn’t done correctly, problems could arise easily. If the error was serious, it might even cause the cruise ship to collide with the gates on the lanes which would result in a huge loss.
Suddenly, the control tower suddenly made an emergency call. They demanded the ship to stop their take off.
Captain Old Lin got a shock but before he could give an order to stop, he felt a sharp pain at the back of his neck. Then, he fainted.
