Chapter 719: Has Love Arrived?
Chapter 719: Has Love Arrived?
After being jolted awake by his nightmare, Jiang Ran gasped in terror as he reached for his forehead, which was somehow covered in a dense layer of sweat. Jiang Ran's strange behavior drew the attention of the other first-class passengers, as well as two flight attendants.One of the flight attendants walked over and quietly asked Jiang Ran what was wrong, if he needed anything, or something like that.
Jiang Ran quickly shook his head, insisting that he had only had a nightmare, that it was nothing, nothing at all, and just asked her for a glass of cold water.
Jiang Ran drank the glass of cold water the flight attendant had brought, pouring the entire thing into his mouth. He immediately felt refreshed all over, his entire body cooling down, and his mind gradually regained its calm.
After he finished drinking, the flight attendant came back to take the glass away.
But as she was taking the glass, that flight attendant actually secretly slipped a small note into Jiang Ran's palm.
Jiang Ran stared at the flight attendant's retreating back with some surprise.
Then, with a mixture of anxiety and curiosity, he opened that little note.
He saw a string of phone numbers on it.
Behind the phone number was also a heart drawn with a pen.
"Huh? Could this be my love arriving?"
Jiang Ran was stunned.
After all, handing over a phone number plus a heart was a very obvious hint.
What? Had that flight attendant fallen for him at first sight? After all, he was still quite handsome.
Thinking of this, Jiang Ran looked up at the flight attendant again. She was sitting in a seat at the very front row.
As if noticing Jiang Ran's gaze, the flight attendant gave him a gentle smile.
Jiang Ran remembered this flight attendant. From the moment he got on the plane, she was the first one to come over and ask him questions, handling his needs.
From an appearance standpoint, this flight attendant seemed to be about twenty-seven years old.
She was probably about one meter seventy tall.
She was quite pretty, the kind of beauty that was delicate and refined.
What left the deepest impression on Jiang Ran was a tear mole at the corner of her left eye.
After all, Jiang Ran was a normal man, and also a man without much experience with women. So, receiving this hint of leaving a phone number, his mind started to run wild with all sorts of thoughts, and he couldn't find peace within himself.
After who knows how many more hours, the plane finally approached its destination.
Aisen Town was in Europe, or more precisely, at the border between Germany and France, belonging to Germany.
Since Aisen Town didn't have an airport, Jiang Ran's flight destination was a city in Germany that did have one: Munich.
As for Munich, what Jiang Ran remembered was the Munich Agreement.
Mentioning the Munich Agreement made Jiang Ran think of World War II again, and thinking of World War II made him recall its brutality, the people who died in that war.
Jiang Ran wondered if World War III broke out, it would be completely unimaginable, because current military technology was so much more advanced than in World War II. If war really started, would the world just blow up?
If it blew up, it blew up. He was just destined to be a wage slave anyway. Whether the world exploded or not had nothing to do with him.
If it didn't explode, he was a wage slave. If it did explode, he was a dead wage slave.
After getting off the plane at Munich Airport, he immediately got a local SIM card, making it easier to use the internet here.
He remembered last time, when he used Manager Xiao Zhang's opportunity to travel to Macedonia Island, after getting off the plane, there were dedicated staff members to pick him up and take him to the hotel.
Not this time. This time, he had to rely entirely on Manager Wu Meiling's instructions sent through WeChat messages.
The good news was that Alice Apartment had already gotten him a train ticket to Aisen Town in Munich.
The bad news was that Jiang Ran had to find his own way to catch that train, which, for someone completely unfamiliar with the place, was hellishly difficult.
No choice, no choice. He just had to grit his teeth and go for it. At least his phone had a translation function.
As for Germany, what left the biggest impression on Jiang Ran was still Hitler. Sanctioned to that extent after World War I, Germany could still take on multiple opponents in World War II. Too fierce.
This was Jiang Ran's first time in Germany. After arriving, he noticed one thing where Germany fell short compared to Hua Country.
That was punctuality.
He rushed frantically, frantically and hurriedly, and after exerting tremendous effort, he finally reached the train station. But after arriving at the station, the train he was supposed to take to Aisen Town was actually delayed.
The reason for the delay was also very simple: the train seemed to have hit a small animal, so it was delayed.
It was delayed by a full two hours. Two hours later, Jiang Ran finally got on the train.
Not long after getting on the train, for some unknown reason, the train suddenly cancelled several subsequent stops, forcing Jiang Ran to get off prematurely.
Jiang Ran was completely confused, so he looked up the reason online.
He searched some domestic apps for German train delays.
What came up was a bunch of people who had been to Germany, either as tourists or for study or life, complaining about the problem of German train delays.
In short, German trains had all sorts of problems: delays, cancellations, derailments, and so on. If you could manage to catch a punctual train without any hiccups, that was your greatest luck.
Forced to get off early with no other choice, Jiang Ran sent a message to Manager Wu Meiling, asking her what to do.
Fifteen minutes later, Wu Meiling replied, saying she had bought him another ticket.
Sure enough, this train was also delayed, though only by a little over an hour.
After getting on the train, Jiang Ran prayed silently, hoping there would be no more hiccups and that he could reach Aisen Town smoothly.
This train, in fact, couldn't go directly to Aisen Town either. After all, Aisen Town was just a small town. Its stop was a small city near Aisen Town. He got off at that small city, and then, following Manager Wu Meiling's instructions, he boarded a bus in that small city heading to Aisen Town.
On the bus, the driver was a middle-aged white man. There were about forty to fifty empty seats, with roughly half of them occupied. Jiang Ran took a careful scan, seeing both men and women, both white and black people, as well as Asians like himself.
To be honest, it was a bit uncomfortable. Just like last time when he went to Macedonia Island, since back home, when he went out, he saw only Hua Country people, faces like his own Asian features. Going to Macedonia Island, and now coming to Europe, when he went out on the streets, the people he saw the most were all kinds of white people. He always felt a bit out of place.
After getting on the bus, Jiang Ran could finally rest properly for a while, since this bus went straight to Aisen Town.
He dozed off a little on the bus.
Then he took out his phone and used WeChat to add the phone number that the flight attendant on the plane had given him.
Next, he waited for the other person to accept the friend request.
About half an hour later, the other side finally accepted the friend request.
