Chapter 489: Weddings and Funerals (Part II)
It was almost four o'clock, and I collapsed in my chair in despair.
I couldn't wait any longer, I flipped through the address book and dialed Sergey's phone.
- "Hello, Linna! Sergei's clear, magnetic voice came from the phone.
- "Sergey! I beg you to lend me some money, I want to book a flight! I shouted.
- "What? Linna, don't worry, speak slowly. Sergey said
- "Where are you?" Can you lend me money? I'll pay you back as soon as I get back! I said
- "Don't say anything about paying back the money yet." Linna, what's going on with you? How can I help you? Sergey asked
- "If you can lend me money, you will save my life, where are you?" Sergei? ”
- "I'm in the office. ”
- "Don't leave, I'll be there soon." I shouted as I rushed out of the hotel with my bag in hand.
- "Linna! ......" I heard Sergei's confused voice.
I didn't bother to reply to Sergei, so I stopped the taxi and told the driver the address of Sergey's company.
On the first floor of the building, the security guard also asked me to contact someone from Sergei's company to pick me up, otherwise he wouldn't let me in, how could I have time to explain to him, at this time someone happened to be in and out, I pushed the person away and ran in, and the angry security guard shouted behind me.
When I came to Sergei's office, I saw the new female secretary sitting at Katya's desk, and passing by her desk, the female secretary looked at me strangely.
I asked:
- "Is Sergei there?" ”
- "Please stay! Have you made an appointment? The female secretary asked, standing up and staring at me.
- "I'm in a hurry with him." I said as I walked towards the door of Sergei's office.
The female secretary sprinted a few steps in front of the door and said
- "The general manager is greeting!"
- "I'm really in a hurry! I shouted to her with my hands up
The female secretary was clearly deceived by my actions. She stood there not daring to let me in, just stared at me with stunned eyes and yelled at her.
The door opened, and Sergey and a man walked out.
Apparently, Sergey was sending off guests.
When they saw me, they all stood in amazement.
The female secretary looked at Sergei with a bewildered expression.
- "Sergey, I have to go back to Beijing tomorrow, I want a ticket to Beijing today!" I ran up to Sergei and stared at him and said
- "Okay, Linna, don't worry, tell me what's going on. Sergei patted my arm with one hand and comforted me.
I told Sergey about the reason why I had to go back and the situation with the ticket.
Sergei comforted me while asking the female secretary to hurry up and buy me a ticket.
Listening to the female secretary call the airline, my emotions slowly calmed down.
I said to Sergei with some embarrassment:
- "I'm really sorry to trouble you so much, I really can't help it...... I will return the money to you as soon as I return to Beijing. ”
- "Don't worry about Lina, everything will be fine, you'll be in time for Grandma's funeral." Sergei said with an eyebrow raised and a smile.
Sergei's guest didn't seem to expect this scene either, he kept looking at me curiously, and he didn't want to leave immediately.
Feeling embarrassed in front of him, I secretly glanced at him twice. It was a middle-aged man of about forty years of age, of medium height, well-proportioned, with curly hair and a very shrewd face, who wore an expensive business suit and watched with interest what was happening in front of him.
At this time, the female secretary walked up to us and said with a nervous look that she had called, and they said that the tickets for the flight to Beijing were all sold out.
Sergei frowned and asked, did all of them ask?
The female secretary said that all the related households that often gave them tickets had asked, and the answer was that there was no one left, including the first-class ticket.
When I heard the news, my heart immediately broke to the ground, and I covered my mouth with my hand and cried bitterly.
Sergei put his arm around me and said:
- "Don't be afraid, Linna! We can go back without this flight. Don't cry yet, okay! ”
I leaned into Sergei's arms and choked up and said:
- "Today's flight to Beijing is my ...... I'm so stupid, I should have found you earlier, I delayed the time myself, and I still had a ticket two hours ago. ”
At this time, I heard Sergei's guest say:
- "In this way, Sergey, if Lina agrees, come with me!" ”
- "I think Lena will agree to your suggestion." I heard Sergei answer with a smile.
- "Lina, Mr. Popov is also flying to Beijing tonight, and if you wish, you can go back with him on his private jet." Sergey looked at me and said with a smile.
- "What? I doubted that I had heard clearly, and looked up at Sergei in surprise.
- "Linna, I said that I would not mislead you. You don't need to cry! Sergey said and wiped my tears with his hand.
- "Linna, give me a copy of your passport. Popov said to me with a smile.
I looked at them in surprise and ran over to Sergei's female secretary to help me copy my passport. Standing in front of the photocopier, I looked back and saw Sergei say to Popov:
- "Looks like I should consider your suggestion anyway. ”
- "Sergey, this is the wisest decision!" Ha ha...... If it weren't for Lina today, wouldn't you have been able to make up your mind? Popov said with a smile
I handed a copy of my passport to Popov and spoke incoherently with excitement:
- "Thank you so much, Mr. Popov, I don't even know what to say!" I thank you in advance for my parents. And my whole family and my grandmother under the Nine Springs...... Oh, by the way, isn't your plane ticket particularly expensive? ”
Popov couldn't help laughing out loud when he heard my question, he glanced at Sergey, then winked at me ghostly and said:
- "Linna, you don't have to worry about this, I'll settle it with Sergei." ”
Sergei smiled and said to me:
- "Linna, Linna, look how you scared yourself into?" Now, let Oleg take you back to the hotel for a good rest! You don't have to worry about anything, he will take you to the airport later as well. ”
