Hearing the question, the middle-aged man opened his eyes.
When his gaze landed on her face, he fell into a trance for a moment, as if he had only regained his senses after a long time.
"Well, sir, are you all right?"
The middle-aged man coughed and replied, "My stomach hurts a little."
Hearing that, Lin Wan Bai nodded her head, she had already figured it out, it was just that his expression was too pained, and they were both Chinese, thus she could not help but ask him, thinking of something, she said: "I seem to have stomach medicine in my bag, let me look for it."
After temporarily unbuckling her seat belt, she got up, took off her luggage, unzipped the inner zipper, and rummaged through several medicines.
Picking up one of the bottles, Lin Wan Bai happily unscrewed it and handed it over, "It's really there, for you, eating two pieces is enough, the effects are very fast, after eating it for a few minutes it will no longer hurt!"
The middle-aged man was slightly startled as he stretched his hand out to receive it.
Noticing that the water in the cup was already cold, Lin Wan Bai stopped him and pressed the button above his head. When the beautiful air stewardess walked over, she said, "Please give me a cup of warm water! "Thank you!"
After taking two pills and drinking half a cup of hot water, the middle-aged man continued to hold his stomach.
After a few minutes, he looked at her with a smile. "I feel much better. Thank you so much!"
"You're welcome, sir." Lin Wan Bai smiled bashfully.
"Don't call me sir, you look like I'm the same age as your daughter. Just call me uncle!" The middle-aged man smiled gently. It was not hard to tell that when he was young, he must have been very graceful. "Are you living in Canada?"
"Mm …" Lin Wan Bai nodded.
Ever since the incident with her child, she did not stay in Los Angeles, but came to Canada alone. For the past three years, she had been living here, handing in many job applications, but she did not expect to end up in a Chinese company's magazine.
"I am not living in North America, I stay in Europe more often. I came to the New York to do some business, and now, I plan to return home." After the middle-aged man finished speaking, he continued to ask with a smile, "From the sound of your accent, you are also from Ice City?"
"Yes, I am …" Lin Wan Bai nodded again.
"What a coincidence, I never thought that we would be from the same village, I am also from Ice City!" The middle-aged man smiled even more amiably. "These few years, I've spent most of my time in Berlin. My wife and daughter have always been in the country. I probably won't leave this time. What about you?"
Lin Wan Bai replied softly, "My grandmother passed away. I came back to celebrate her anniversary."
After that, the two of them chatted for a while longer. By night time, the cabin had already fallen asleep. It was noon of the second day when they landed.
Because he was sitting right next to the middle-aged man, when Lin Wan Bai took out the luggage, he happened to be with the middle-aged man. After coming out from the passage, the middle-aged man took out a folder from his pocket and handed it over.
"Here's my card."
After Lin Wan Bai received it, he only said one sentence, "My surname is Lin …"
After all, they had only met by chance and they might not meet again, so there was no need to tell him his name.
The middle-aged man smiled, she did not care at all, it should be that a car specially came to pick him up. When he arrived at the exit, he waved her hand at her, "Miss Lin, see you later!"
"Goodbye …" Lin Wan Bai nodded and replied.
When she put the name card into her pocket, she looked at it and saw that it said Lu Xue Lin.
Looking at the sky that he had not seen for a long time, and having left for a whole four years, she felt nervous to be back in this place, Lin Wan Bai took a deep breath and dragged his luggage towards the direction of the taxi.
She was so immersed in her own thoughts that she didn't notice the chaos at the entrance of the airport lobby.
After entering the city from the airport at the fastest speed, Lin Wan Bai turned his head to look out the window, seeing that the city he was familiar with was slowly becoming stranger, and also expanding many buildings, all of the subway lines that were previously constructed on the sealed road were now complete.
She tried hard to identify where this place was, and where it was …
This trip back home wasn't just to celebrate Grandmother's anniversary. Lin Wan Bai still had a bailiff, and the magazine's headquarters was at Ice City. Canada was just a branch overseas, so she had to stay here for at least a month.
she thought.
However, she missed her best friend, Sang Xiao Yu. The two of them had only been contacting each other through email for the past few years, so she didn't know how things had been going.
When Lin Wan Bai got out of the taxi and was about to leave, the driver stuck his head out.
"Miss, wait!"
Lin Wan Bai stopped and revealed a puzzled expression, "Uh, what's wrong, was it my car money that wasn't right?"
"No!" Didn't you notice something was missing? "
"…" What was missing?
Lin Wan Bai lowered his head and looked at his shoulder bag as well as the suitcase from the back of the car. He didn't feel like he was missing anything, so he looked at the driver with a puzzled expression.
The driver seemed even more speechless than she was as he got out of the car and opened the back door.
Lin Wan Bai looked over and was shocked.
A little boy around four or five years old came out of nowhere from the back of the car. He looked like he was sculpted from jade and wore a black suit. His black mushroom like hair was slightly curled.
Where did this little bun come from?
The driver's eyes were already full of reproach as he urged again, "Miss, how are you going to be a mother? You are really careless! Getting off the car can actually put the child down, hurry up and get the child off the car! "
"I …" Lin Wan Bai opened his mouth in shock.
Under the forced gaze of the driver, she could only blankly walk up and carry the little bun from the seat.
After the door was closed, the taxi sped away, honking its horn twice as if dissatisfied with her.
At the entrance of the hotel, a young and a old man stood facing the spring breeze.
Lin Wan Bai lowered his head, looked at the little bun who was only at his knee, swallowed his saliva, and patiently asked.
"Little friend, where are your parents?"
"Did you get into the wrong car?"
"Want some sugar?"
After asking for a long time, the little bun could only put on a cool expression and put up a pose.
Just as Lin Wan Bai was worrying that this situation would lead to her sending the little bun to the police station, the little bun in front of her suddenly flipped over towards her. Little friend, are you alright? "
As he stretched his hand out to support her, he felt the warmth of her forehead.
Crap, it's so hot!
Lin Wan Bai had no choice but to carry the little bun again and temporarily leave the luggage in the custody of the hotel's doorman.
After hanging up the emergency room, there was a doctor who immediately scolded her, "How can you be a mother? Your child's fever is so severe, why did you only send him to the hospital!?"
This was the second time in less than half an hour that someone had questioned her on how to be a mother …
Lin Wan Bai facepalmed.
Mute people would often suffer unspeakably.
