419: Successfully received four lawyers
“Alright, then I’ll take your garage key for now. I’ll return it to you as soon as I buy a suitable garage for myself,” Liu Xiaolin had no choice but to accept Shi Yuer’s kind offer to make it easier to hide his car.
“You’ve been running around for my husband, and you’re still being so polite when I let you use a garage. You can’t be like this,” Shi Yuer said, feigning anger.
“Got it, I won’t be polite with you anymore,” Liu Xiaolin said, holding the key. “Now I need to hurry, or I won’t be at the airport by the time they land.”
“Okay, you go quickly,” Shi Yuer had originally wanted to go with Liu Xiaolin to pick up the lawyers, but she was afraid of being in the way, so she didn’t mention it.
Liu Xiaolin felt much more comfortable driving his own car. For the past few days, driving the beat-up car made him feel like a scavenger, wandering the world with a piece of junk. How comfortable it was to drive his own car! It would execute various commands just by him speaking to it, without the need for manual operations.
However, his car was indeed a bit too conspicuous; people would point at it wherever he went. That’s why he had never dared to use the flying function in Yuhai City; otherwise, the whole city would probably gather to watch the spectacle. Liu Xiaolin had already experienced firsthand how much people in Yuhai City loved to watch a good show.
Soon he arrived at the airport, with still over ten minutes until the plane landed.
Liu Xiaolin stood outside the airport, looking at the terminal building. Eight curved wings extended in eight directions, utilizing the most convenient and fastest large-span steel structure and full glass curtain walls. The overall shape looked like a phoenix about to spread its wings and soar.
Liu Xiaolin parked his car and quickly walked into the airport hall. He stood in the hall and looked around, seeing that it was divided into two areas, left and right. The left side said “Domestic Arrivals,” and the right side said “International Arrivals.” This made it very clear: “Domestic Arrivals” definitely referred to domestic flights within the Dragon Kingdom, while “International Arrivals” was certainly the area for international flight arrivals. 33 Novel Network
In the center of the hall, there was a large electronic display screen, cycleplaying the arrival flight schedule. Liu Xiaolin glanced at the schedule and quickly found that the earliest flight was displayed as arriving on time.
That meant it would arrive in just over ten minutes. Liu Xiaolin thought to himself that he didn’t know those people and had only spoken to them on the phone. How would he let them know he was there to pick them up?
Should he hold up a cardboard sign with big letters like everyone else? But where would he find a cardboard sign now? After much thought, he took out his tablet from his backpack, connected to the internet, and edited a welcome video. It read: “Welcome Lawyers Su Allen, Wang Luhu, Lu Xiaohui, and Chen Chusheng from the Capital! I am Liu Xiaolin!”
This welcome video was quite lively. A line of text scrolled, surrounded by crackling fireworks, and a bit of cheerful music was added. Liu Xiaolin was very satisfied after watching it himself. He held up the tablet and stood in the “Domestic Arrivals” area, attracting the attention of people around him.
“Young man, very creative! Well done.”
“Yeah, next time I’ll make a video like this too; it’ll be much more convenient.”
“How interesting, even setting off firecrackers, haha, fun.”
“Can you teach me?”
Liu Xiaolin was a bit embarrassed to hear someone actually asking him to teach them: “I just fiddled with it myself; you can do it too if you just tinker around.”
Just as he was speaking, the airport broadcast announced that the flight had landed and passengers would be arriving soon, asking everyone to prepare for pick-up.
Liu Xiaolin couldn't bother talking to others now. He held the tablet high with both hands and waved it towards the exit.
Soon, passengers started to emerge. They orderly retrieved their luggage and then orderly walked out of the arrival gate.
Liu Xiaolin saw a few people walking together, chatting about something. He instinctively felt that these people should be the lawyers he was there to pick up, so he eagerly held up his tablet and approached them. However, after looking at Liu Xiaolin’s tablet, they walked away as if he were an idiot.
“Looks like it wasn’t them,” Liu Xiaolin was a bit disappointed, but he quickly re-composed himself and vigorously waved the tablet at the emerging passengers.
Then a passenger walked up to him, pointed at his tablet, and asked, “Are you trying to charge your tablet? There should be chargers at the front desk.”
“Huh? Charge?” Liu Xiaolin looked at the person in surprise, then took down his tablet and glanced at it, only to realize that his tablet had gone black. He didn't know when it had run out of power.
No wonder so many people looked at him like he was an idiot.
Were the people who just walked by also seeing a black screen?
“I’d better call them quickly. If it really was them, that would be troublesome.” Liu Xiaolin didn’t even bother to thank the person who reminded him, and pulled out his phone to make a call: “Lawyer Su Allen, hello, may I ask where you are?”
“Me? I’m right across from you,” a voice reached Liu Xiaolin’s ears. Liu Xiaolin looked up in surprise and saw the person who had just reminded him smiling at him.
“Ah? You’re Lawyer Su? Welcome, welcome! I’m so sorry, I just made a welcome video on my tablet, and I guess it played for too long and ran out of battery without me realizing it,” Liu Xiaolin hung up his phone and quickly went to shake the other party’s hand.
“I guessed you were here to pick someone up, but it’s the first time I’ve seen someone pick up with a black-screened tablet, haha,” Su Allen said with a laugh as he shook Liu Xiaolin’s hand. “The others haven’t come out yet?”
“I’ll call and ask. You can tell how unreliable my tablet is, so you know I’m pretty unreliable too. Calling is more dependable,” Liu Xiaolin self-deprecatingly said.
“Not at all, not at all, hurry and call,” Su Allen was so amused by Liu Xiaolin that he couldn’t help but laugh.
Liu Xiaolin hurriedly made three calls, and soon the other lawyers gathered around.
Once gathered, everyone began their self-introductions.
“I am Lawyer Su Allen. Please give me more guidance in the future.”
“I am Lawyer Wang Luhu. Please give me more help in the future.”
“Lawyer Lu Xiaohui. It’s a pleasure to see you all. I hope we can cooperate happily during this time.”
“I am Lawyer Chen Chusheng. I hope we can cooperate sincerely and achieve our task soon.”
“Hello, four lawyer brothers, I am Liu Xiaolin. I was the one who contacted you yesterday.”
“I didn’t expect CEO Liu to be so young! When Director Zhao mentioned you to me, he praised you to the high heavens,” Chen Chusheng said with a smile.
“Director Zhao was just encouraging me, hoping I could do better. Actually, I’m still young, and there are many things I don’t do very well,” Liu Xiaolin said humbly.
