Chapter 799: Arguing with an old man

Chapter 799 - Arguing with an old man

Across the ocean from Imperial, Lu Tian's private jet lands on another charter, only smaller than the one they took off from. The door opens, allowing the airstairs to descend before Lu Tian's tall figure emerges from inside.

"Achoo."

He had only taken a foot forward when he suddenly sneeze. His eyebrows wrinkle, and he frowns with perplex as the passing wind picks up.

Why did he sneeze? Could it be that someone is talking about him behind his back?

Yue Ling was only one step behind him when she heard him sneeze. She stares at the back of his head and found it a little strange. She thought he was okay throughout the plane ride since he didn't say anything but look over some doc.u.ments for work.

"Are you feeling unwell?"

She asked with worry as the season was still cold and enough to make one catch a cold.

Lu Tian shook his head and discarded the frown on his face. He takes hold of her and walks down the airstairs.

"I'm alright. It was just a sneeze."

Hearing his response, Yue Ling chuckles softly and follows in his steps. She thought about something ridiculous and spoke her mind.

"It would be funny if it was really someone talking about you."

Lu Tian pursed his lower lip, hearing her laugh. He couldn't help but wonder if she was correct. What if someone did talk about him? But, the real question is who?

"Wow…"

Before his thoughts could trail too far, Yue Ling's sudden gasp from behind him brought him back to reality. He looks up ahead and doesn't say anything but continue down the airstairs.

Yue Ling was in great astonishment at the scene in front of her. Before they laned, she kept looking out the window to get an idea of where he was taking her. However, all she saw was the calm ocean.

She knew this because the moon's radiant light from above reflected over the water with a glistering glow. Approximately thirty minutes later, she finally saw more light, not from the moon and stars but the electric lights on the ground.

"Good evening, Mr. Lu and Miss Han."

Just as the couple stepped on the ground underneath their feet, an elderly man greets them upon arrival. He stood in front of a black Maserati Quattroporte, and on his face was a huge smile.

"Steward Bai."

Lu Tian greets the elderly man with a small nod. The way he spoke was calm and collected as usual, but Yue Ling could hear the respect in his voice.

She looks at the elderly man referred to as Steward Bai. Although it was dark, the surrounding light allowed her to see the wrinkles on the man's old face and enough to let her know that he is a sweet old man, just like Steward Yang.

She sighs inside at the thought of Steward Yang living alone in Fate and decides that she will revisit Fate once everything with An Qing is settled.

A smile curls on her face, and she bends forward in a polite bow to Steward Bai.

"Hello, I am Han Yue Ling. I apologize for intruding so late in the night."

Steward Bai did not hide his feelings and nodded his head approvingly. He sounds a peal of heartfelt laughter and takes a few steps forward.

"Aiya, no need to apologize to this servant. Early or late, Miss Han is more than welcome here."

He looks at Lu Tian and gives the young man a smile that reached his eyes before handing over the car keys.

"I have prepared everything on the list you sent."

Lu Tian responded with an 'mm.' He takes the keys and glance head before looking back at Steward Bai.

"Thank you, you can go home. I'll take care of the rest."

His words fell as he watches the pilot and the young man put his and Yue Ling's belongings in the car. He then helps his wife get inside the passenger seat before walking over to the driver's side.

He pauses in his steps and looks back at Steward Bai and the private jet. However, his attention, this time for directed at the pilot.

"Zhang Yi, send Steward Bai home when you land in Imperial."

He gives a quick instruction then enters the car without another word.

Zhang Yi watches the car drives away and heaves a long sigh.

"Aiya, I thought that since he found someone, he would be nicer, but he is still cold as usual. Hopefully, Miss Han can melt his heart."

He looks around to see if there were any luggage that needed to be put on the plane. However, he didn't find anything on the ground, but that was until he notices the old man was carrying a backpack.

He couldn't help but laugh at the sight of Steward Bai looking like a lost schoolboy on a field trip.

"Old Bai, you're more than sixty. How can you still carry a heavy backpack?"

He reaches out to help take the heavy bag, but Steward Bai stops him before he could.

"I'm not so weak that I cannot carry a backpack. Plus, it helps with my back pain."

Steward Bai's eyes remained fixated in the direction the car had gone. However, thinking about Zhang Yi's words, his expression turned sour. He turns his head to look at the middle-aged man and laughs.

"What do you mean he is still cold? Didn't you notice how warm the boy has become since meeting Miss Han?"

He had heard Xu Long and the members of Wolf Team mention Lu Tian becoming nicer. At first, he was in denial because he has known Lu Tian since the boy was young, but to see it just now in person, he can confirm everyone's words.

Lu Tian is hard to read, but when he (Steward Bai) could see the warmth in the boy's eyes when he looks at Yue Ling. That alone is enough to let one know that Lu Tian also has a heart.

He chuckles to himself and holds his hands behind his back as he makes his way to the private jet.

"Miss Han is truly an outstanding woman and the perfect match for Lu Tian."

"Beautiful too."

The young man, who had boarded the plane, chimes in when he heard Steward Bai. He has always been a fan of Han Yue Ling but never thought the day would come when he finally met her.

His cheeks flush a shade of pink with a dazedly smile as he thought back to when he saw her exit the car.

"Pictures really don't do justice to how beautiful she is."

Steward Bai stopped in his tracks when he heard the young man. He may be old in age, but he can still tell the difference between a good person and a bad person.

It was without a doubt that Yue Ling is a woman deserving of much respect.

She knew that he is a steward and of lowering standing, but she treated him like a human being. Unlike those other young women from prominent families that think they are better than everyone.

He snorts a hmmf as he was reminded of all the women Lu Han had been with. If only the young man could find someone like Lu Tian did.

His right-hand raises for the airstair rail, and he turns back to look in the direction Yue Ling and Lu Tian had gone. However, what he was met with made his eyes hung heavy.

"Boy, your smile is going to give this old me an early death."

He shakes his head and proceeds up the stairs. His sudden words made Zhang Yi snort a quiet laugh and struck the young man dumbfounded.

The young man stares in utter disbelief at Steward Bai and scoffs sarcastically.

"My smile will give you an early death?"

He puts his hands on his h.i.p.s, and his eyes follow the old man's movements.

"Old Bai, just to let you know, this smile of mine has made many women faint and fall head over heels for me."

Steward Bai rolled his eyes until he entered the private jet. He turns around to look down at the young man and size the boy up. Even today, he didn't understand why Lu Tian allowed such a chatterbox to be air security.

Oblivious to the elderly man's thoughts, the young man strides up the airstair and continues to rant. He points to his face and smiles a broad smile that reveals his pearly white teeth.

"See, look at my smile. Women always say I have a smile that shines like the sun."

As the young man enters the private jet, Steward Bai makes his way to the seating area. He sits down on a vacant seat that allowed him to see the young man standing by the door.

He leans back on the seat and closes his eyes as if he were going to sleep.

"And yet, here you are, still single arguing with an old man."
