Chapter 57: Whether my skills are good or not, don’t you have the most voice in it?

At 2:30 in the afternoon, under the blazing sun, Xu Sui and her colleagues were exhausted and weary after the drive. They tried to communicate with the head of the base, hoping to hasten the original shooting time from 3 o’clock to now.

They agreed that the earlier they finished, the earlier they would complete the task.

Wu Fan, the head of the base, looked embarrassed: “Actually, I’m only in charge of reception, not the person in charge here. The captain and the flight attendants are still at the headquarters, so I can’t communicate with them. How about I call our boss to discuss this with you all?”

“Come in and rest first,” Wu Fan said.

Xu Sui walked into the lounge with several colleagues. Xu Sui looked over and saw a world map hanging in the center of the opposite wall, with a few red and white magnets stuck on it.

There was a small five-star red flag hanging beside it.

This looks like someone’s temporary office. The layout was very simple. There was only a desk, a black couch, and a white box fan, not even a potted plant.

Wu Fan poured them a cup of tea and said with a smile: “You guys have worked hard, he will be here soon.”

The colleague pulled Xu Sui’s sleeve and complained softly: “I really hope to finish the class and shoot these things soon because I have a date in the evening.” Xu Sui smiled and didn’t answer because her motion sickness was too serious.

At this instant, a person walked in from the door. Xu Sui was holding a disposable cup and about to take a sip, but after seeing the person clearly, a few drops of hot tea splashed onto her trouser.

Zhou Jingze walked in and nodded at them one by one, holding a bunch of keys on his index finger and shaking them gently. After Xu Sui’s colleagues saw that he was a handsome guy, they became more vigorous.

One of the colleagues shared their thoughts. Zhou Jingze took out two cans of iced Coke from the refrigerator and put them on the table. He sat down and opened one, taking a sip. He raised his eyes and asked, “Want to advance the shoot?”

The female colleague nodded: “Yes, could you accommodate?”

Zhou Jingze put the can on the coffee table, clasped the bottle with his fingers, and looked at everyone in the room. He paused when he glanced at Xu Sui’s sick pale face, retracting his gaze and raising his brow bone and spoke slowly:

“No.”

“Ah, why?” the colleague asked.

“Because the venue doesn’t open until three o’clock.” Zhou Jingze put down a sentence.

On the side, Wu Fan wiped off his cold sweat. He couldn’t figure out why Zhou Jingze refused. Besides, whether opening up or not is only a matter of your words. Can’t you just be a bit more tactful in your words, instead of this insensitive and incapable of human emotion?

Even a fool can tell that it was nonsense.

No wonder he is a notorious ruthless cold devil.

“Everyone rest.” Zhou Jingze got up, picked up the ice water on the table, and walked out.

The room was completely silent again, and the colleague whispered: “Hey, why is he like this ah? So unsympathetic.”

Xu Sui shook her head. She didn’t know why Zhou Jingze refused to accommodate. She didn’t bother to guess what he was thinking, but coincidentally, there was still half an hour left, so she could take a good rest and ease her motion sickness.

The next second, the phone beeped, indicating that a text message had come in. Xu Sui pressed on the text; it was an unfamiliar number: There is a can of iced Coke on the table. You can press it against your forehead to cool down.

Xu Sui looked up, and there was a can of iced Coke in front of the seat where Zhou Jingze left. There were tiny water droplets on the outer surface of the bottle, giving off cool air.

At three o’clock, the captain and flight attendants showed up on time together, and Zhou Jingze sat at the runway gate with a thermos, letting them pass like a guard.

When the co-pilot saw Zhou Jingze, his serious face immediately changed into a smile, and he raised his hand and clenched his fist. Zhou Jingze put down the thermos, bumped his fist, and smiled very lightly.

“Long time no see, captain.” said the co-pilot.

“Tsk, I don’t deserve it.” Zhou Jingze took apart a candy, lowered his eyebrows, and hooked the corner of his lips, laughing at himself, “I’m just a broken teacher now.”

“Brother, everything will get better,” the co-pilot patted him on the back and changed the topic, “Today happened to be the 70th anniversary of civil aviation, so the captain I was partnered with went to attend the aviation industry conference. I’m afraid I’ll need to ask you a favor for filming this time.”

Before he finished speaking, Zhou Jingze understood what he meant. He raised his eyebrows with a look of being joked with: “Is there no one else in AVIC? You’re finding someone who faced disciplinary action.”

“It wasn’t your fault,” the co-pilot patted him on the back and said, “Don’t worry, I won’t give you too many shots, only profile. It’s mainly taking pictures of the flight attendants. Just think of it as doing brother a favor.”

Zhou Jingze was pushed forward. With a careless expression, he put one hand in his trouser pocket, stretched out an index finger, and made a gesture. The co-pilot was taken aback and said with a smile: “Ok, ok, ok, I’ll treat you to the most expensive wine another day.”

The two walked toward the airport one after the other, catching a glimpse of the medical staff looking around after changing clothes from a distance. Zhou Jingze raised his eyelids and glanced around but didn’t see Xu Sui’s figure in the crowd. She was probably still changing clothes since she has always been slow in doing things.

Zhou Jingze walked over, and they all turned their heads to greet them. A doctor praised: “This place is so cool. It’s our first visit.”

The co-pilot replied humorously: “In a while, let Captain Zhou take you to the sky for a look. He can fly the plane really steadily.”

The crowd laughed; Zhou Jingze twitched the corners of his mouth and said nothing. This guy is really something that to let him help, he can wear any tall hat.

There was a “click” sound across from him. Zhou Jingze raised his eyes and looked over. A female doctor was opening a coke, and when she met his eyes, the female doctor was embarrassed: “Zhou Jingze, thank you.”

“Huh?” Zhou Jingze was stunned for a moment.

The female doctor shook the coke in her hand and said, “For this ah, I’ve been wanting to have a cold drink, and Xu Sui said you saved me a can. Thank you.”

“You’re welcome.” Zhou Jingze stiffly pulled the corner of his mouth.

“I’ll go change first.” He patted his companion on the shoulder.

Zhou Jingze put his hands in his pockets and walked towards the locker room. His chest felt a little tight, and it wouldn’t go away. He bit his back molars, lowered his eyes, and thought, Xu Sui became more capable, letting him eat defeat one after another.

At the airport, the old photographer was already in position with the camera. Xu Sui and the others stood there waiting for the flight attendants to appear. At the direction of the sun at four o’clock, a group of young and dashing flight crew appeared in front of everyone in neat uniforms. The men were handsome, and the women were pretty, very attractive.

The co-pilot and chief flight attendant came over to shake hands with them one by one. The co-pilot smiled and said, “Thank you all. The main purpose is to train the flight attendants behind me on first aid knowledge. The chief flight attendant will fully cooperate with you all.”

Xu Sui nodded: “I am in charge of CPR, and my colleagues in the Obstetrics and Gynecology department will be responsible for teaching everyone on the plane how to help passengers give birth in an emergency.”

The chief flight attendant was a stunning and sensible woman. She offered her hand: “Pleasure to cooperate together.”

While they were talking, a lazy and indifferent voice interrupted: “Old Zheng, we’ll go up first.”

Xu Sui looked up and saw that Zhou Jingze was wearing a dark blue pilot uniform with four stripes. Broad shoulders, a narrow waist, and a pair of dark and bright eyes. The gold-rimmed buttons on his white shirt were tightly buttoned, and his Adam’s apple protruded, adding a sense of abstinence.

When the two were together before, Xu Sui rarely saw him wearing a suit and white shirt. But in a blink of an eye, he turned from a sloppy and undisciplined teenager to a man. There was a greater touch of masculinity and maturity.

Xu Sui saw Zhou Jingze walk over, jumping into the cockpit with the co-pilot following closely. They also boarded the plane under the guidance of the flight attendant.

The plane started slowly, and the body went upwards, leaving the ground and flying to the sky at a high altitude. Xu Sui and her colleagues sat in the cabin, flipping through magazines, and very soon, the plane was ten thousand meters above the ground and flew into the stratosphere.

The sweet voice of the flight attendant sounded: “Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to China Zhongzheng Airlines, this flight…”

Xu Sui looked out the window; the clouds were floating beside her, thin and soft like white cotton candy, and as she looked down, they happened to pass by a golden terraced field, grand and very spectacular.

A panoramic view of thousands of miles of rivers and mountains was seen.

Fifteen minutes later, the medical staff began to train the flight crew on emergency rescue knowledge. Xu Sui was in charge of CPR. She was wearing a white coat and squatting on the ground, and a person demonstrating cardiac arrest was lying beside her.

Her voice was calm and decisive: “First of all, we must evacuate the surrounding crowd and keep the air flowing.”

“Second, unbutton the patient’s collar, stretch out the index and middle fingers, and check the beating of the patient’s pulse,” Xu Sui bent down, just about to reach over, “Like this—”

The plane shook sharply to the right; Xu Sui’s voice was interrupted, and she couldn’t help but fall backward. She had to demonstrate again.

“Place the heel of your left hand on the chest, interlace your hands, lock your elbows to keep your arms straight, and press hard,” Xu Sui knelt beside the patient with skillful concentration, “Repeatedly pressing thirty times.”

Xu Sui pressed her hands on the patient’s chest. After compressing no more than ten times, the plane jolted, and there was a strong shaking. She didn’t kneel at the moment and fell to the side in front of the crew and colleagues.

Her hair was scattered, and the hair tie fell, unclear which seat it rolled under.

Very awkward.

Being embarrassed in public, Xu Sui’s face felt a little hot. She got up, pretending to be calm, and caught a glimpse of the cameraman holding back his laugh, even the camera was shaking.

Next, Xu Sui demonstrated the three emergency rescue methods of CPR, but at the critical point, the plane either swayed to the left or tilted to the right, and her work was interrupted many times. Repeatedly like this, no matter how good-tempered, no one could withstand this teasing.

Xu Sui suddenly remembered that Zhou Jingze had glanced at her when she got on the plane, and that look seemed like gnashing his teeth. Could it be that she over and over again rejected Zhou Jingze’s kindness?

Did he want to pick a fight on purpose? After all, he is the captain, and in the sky, he is in control of everything.

While she was in a daze, the plane shook violently again, as if the nose of the plane deliberately turned around slowly. Xu Sui couldn’t stand still for a moment and bumped against the door panel.

When it was the turn of her colleagues, the plane was extremely steady.



After the plane landed, a group of people got off the plane one after another and stood there chatting for a while. The two pilots stayed in the cockpit to check all the equipment before finally getting off the plane.

The two came out one after another. The colleagues and on-site staff applauded, all praising Zhou Jingze for his skills and for feeling safe on his plane.

Amidst all the compliments, Xu Sui remembered the moment when it was her turn and the plane was particularly bumpy. She said with a smile: “Really? It was a little wobbly just now. I think Pilot Liu flew better.”

“Haha, Dr. Xu has a good eye.” The co-pilot said with a smile.

Zhou Jingze’s eyes stopped on her and looking straight at her, his face darkened. The co-pilot happened to be standing beside him as if he had sensed the undercurrent between the two of them.

It was quite fun; the first time he saw Zhou Jingze jumping, he couldn’t hold back his image.

Surprising.

The crowd gradually dispersed, and the photographer called to take pictures. Xu Sui fell back alone, and Zhou Jingze followed behind slowly. He took off his jacket and hung it on his broad shoulders, passing by her with one hand in his trouser pocket.

When he brushed past her shoulders, Zhou Jingze looked down at her with a hint of frivolity and ruffian in his dark eyebrows: “Just now, it was because of the air current. Also, whether my skills are good or not, don’t you have the most voice in it?”

Xu Sui exploded for a second, feeling the temperature of her cheeks rising sharply. She stared at Zhou Jingze. How is this man so impulsive, he can say this in public without blushing and still have a straight face.

Now Xu Sui walked forward quickly.

The photographer ordered the doctors to stand in front of the plane to take a group photo. The four doctors in white coats fixed their angles and looked at the camera.

Da Long held the camera and pointed at them “ka ka,” taking several pictures in a row. He looked at the shots closely and rewind the film but felt something was wrong.

“Boss, do you see any problems?” Da Long moved the camera in front of Zhou Jingze.

Zhou Jingze took a glance. His focus stopped on the second girl on the far right. Her pupils were dark, and her lips were a little red. Just a slight smile revealed her dimples.

He raised his eyebrows: “What problem? It’s quite pretty.”

“You straight man don’t understand.” Da Long punched him in the chest.

Da Long stared at it for a long time, and suddenly with a jolt, he found the blind spot: “Doctor Xu, can you tie your hair up so that it’s more uniform.”

“Me? “Xu Sui was stunned.

Everyone looked over, and Xu Sui became the focus again. She subconsciously searched for a hair tie in her pocket, but she couldn’t find any. Unfortunately, her colleagues didn’t have any extra hair ties.

Xu Sui looked a little embarrassed, taking a step back. She isn’t someone who likes to take pictures and show off too much and said: “Or I won’t–”

“Won’t take pictures then.” Before Xu Sui said the second part of the sentence, a tall figure shrouded over. Zhou Jingze’s body leaned down, and he stretched out his hand in his trouser pocket, holding a beige scrunchie.

In front of everyone, Zhou Jingze lowered his head without any hesitation and carefully tied up her hair.

Xu Sui subconsciously wanted to back away, but the man held her shoulders, and his deep voice echoed beside her ears: “Don’t move.”

The piercingly cold mint smell on his body fluttered to the tip of her nose. Xu Sui froze, only feeling his elbow resting on her shoulder. His slender fingers penetrated her hair; he tilted his head and unskillfully slipped the scrunchie to tie her hair. The thin callus of his thumb brushed against her delicate neck, and with a light touch, Xu Sui’s heart shrank suddenly.

“Where did you get the hair tie?” Xu Sui raised her eyes to look at him.

If she’s not mistaken, this scrunchie belonged to her, and it wasn’t the one that fell on the plane.

“I picked it up on the street.” Zhou Jingze’s tone was casual.
