Samsara Online

Chapter 153 The situation changes



Surprisingly, one of his flying companions was the girl he met in university a few minutes before the basketball game started! Although she was still covering most of her face as she did back then, Xie Feng could identify her precisely by her eyes.

Shen Xinya was bored sitting in her plane seat. In approximately one week she had to give a concert in Shanghai, but another reason she was there was to register for the university. However, her father called her last night to ask her to attend a birthday party instead. With no other option, she and her guardian Yin Yue had to fly to the capital today to get there in time.

"I wonder how that bad boy is doing..." she sighed.

"Are you?" Xie Feng was so surprised he couldn’t help but ask.

When she heard someone talking to her, Shen Xinya looked up curiously and was noticeably surprised.

"Big Bad Wolf?" She was so surprised that she stood up from her seat and whispered in a low voice, but she quickly put her hands over her mouth.

Coming out of his surprise, Xie Feng smiled slightly and showed his flight ticket: "What a coincidence. I didn’t expect to meet an acquaintance here. My seat is the B-07, right next to yours."

"That’s right. I didn’t expect to see you again so soon, especially not on an airplane... Haha, destiny is interesting, don’t you think?" Also coming out of her surprise, Shen Xinya looked at Xie Feng with bright eyes and pronounced words he couldn’t understand.

Xie Feng didn’t know what the girl in front of him meant by "I didn’t expect to meet you again so soon". Still, he agreed that fate was sure to be interesting. With a friendly smile, he nodded:

"That’s right, destiny sure is interesting."

*Cough...*

A small cough caused both Xie Feng and Shen Xinya to look away and, not to Xie Feng’s surprise, the woman in business clothes was standing there.

"A pleasure to see you again. Let me thank you for your guide last time..." Yin Yue had a professional smile on her face, when she suddenly realized something: "Right. Even though we know your name, you don’t know our names. My name is Yin Yue and she is-"

"Xiao Xinya. My name is Xiao Xinya." Before Yin Yue could say a false name, Shen Xinya interrupted. She stared at Xie Feng’s face as if she wanted to make sure of something.

Yin Yue was looking at Shen Xinya with complicated eyes. The more she acted that way, the more sure Yin Yue was that Shen Xinya could feel some kind of attraction for the handsome young man in front of her.

"Eh?" Hearing the name of the young woman with her face covered, Xie Feng’s eyes opened wide for a split second before returning to normal.

’There’s no way that’s possible...’ he thought as he smiled bitterly inside.

Although Xie Feng’s expression returned to normal very quickly, it did not escape Shen Xinya’s intense gaze. When she saw the surprise appear on Xie Feng’s face, her beautiful eyes shone as if she was sure of something.

"By the way, Yin Yue. Just now you said that you and Xiao Xinya know my name... But I don’t remember saying it before?" Xie Feng, to shake off the strange feeling that he felt inside, turned his attention to the words of Yin Yue.

"That day on the basketball court, Xiao Xinya and I were in the stands." With a smile that is hard to describe, Yin Yue responded, "You really are a genius at basketball. Even though I am not a sports fan, I don’t think many people can do what you did, right?"

Only now did Xie Feng understand how these two women knew his name. However, when he heard Yin Yue’s last words, he rolled his eyes and did not respond.

"Hehe... Yin Yue, if Xie Feng’s performance was so common, then the reaction of students, teachers and even the principal would not have been so exaggerated..." Shen Xinya responded with a chuckle.

"Dear passengers, this is your captain on board, Ming Luo. Please turn off your cell phones and secure your seat belts. It is now 17:00 hrs. and we will arrive at our destination, Beijing International Airport at 19:15 hrs. If you need assistance from our staff, please feel free to press the green button next to your seat. I hope you enjoy a pleasant flight."

The voice of the capital of the plane came out of the speakers on the side of the plane so that all passengers could hear the message. Immediately afterwards, a beautiful stewardess started to explain the safety measures as well as the emergency measures and rules.

Xie Feng adjusted his seat belt and still feeling strange, he looked at the girl next to him. Before he was adopted by the Xie family, Xie Feng lived in an orphanage and all the children in that orphanage automatically took the surname Xiao.

When he was still young, there was a girl named Xiao Xinya with whom he used to play. So when he heard the name the young woman said, he couldn’t help but remember the past.

As if she could feel his gaze, Shen Xinya looked at him with half-closed eyes and a funny shine in her eyes.

Uncomfortable, Xie Feng gave her a slight smile and looked to the right. What he didn’t expect, however, was to see another familiar face just across the hall.

Surprisingly, Xiong Wang, the pot-bellied man, was looking at him intently as if he wanted to kill him with his eyes! The expression on Xiong Wang’s face was extremely ugly as if he had eaten several flies.

"Really... Destiny is certainly interesting." Xie Feng murmured with a strange expression as he held back the urge to laugh.

***

The plane took off from Shanghai airport and flew smoothly through the skies for about twenty minutes, which surprised Xie Feng a little. What he expected was that the people targeting Gu Qianxue would move as fast as possible, however, even after they left the ground, there were no strange movements.

After thinking carefully, Xie Feng could only come to two conclusions;

1) Something bad happened, so the people sent to capture or harm Gu Qianxue could not move right now. Technically speaking, the assailants should have moved five minutes after the wheels of the plane left the ground, as that way they could start their plan as soon as possible and finish it sooner rather than later.

Or... Thinking about the second possibility, Xie Feng’s eyes shone and a playful smile formed on his lips.

2) The people sent this time were complete amateurs. They could even be mercenaries hired randomly. But this was perfectly normal, after all, special government forces could not move around freely and large movements are a great chance of being discovered.

"Xie Feng, may I ask what your visit to Beijing is about? After all, you must be skipping classes, right?" Shen Xinya asked as she looked at him.

Over the course of twenty minutes, she had tried in every way possible to strike up a conversation with Xie Feng. School, work, health, etc... She talked about many topics, but always avoided the topic of love.

"Actually, a person close to me will be attending a birthday party soon. My little sister and I are accompanying her." Xie Feng responded casually.

"Huh? What a coincidence!" exclaimed Shen Xinya in surprise. "I also have a birthday party that I must attend and for that reason, I am flying to Beijing."

"Oh?" Xie Feng was slightly surprised and for a moment did not know what to say.

"But..." Shen Xinya looked sideways before looking at Xie Feng in confusion: "Where is your little sister? Blood relationship?"

Xie Feng frowned slightly. The more he talked to this girl, the more he realized there was something wrong with her. Her questions became stranger and stranger.

After thinking for a moment, Xie Feng had a strange feeling, so he answered honestly:

"She is in the first class area next to the person I mentioned right now, since we couldn’t get three tickets together. She and I are not related by blood, I was adopted by her family when I was still young."

When he responded, he noticed with total clarity how Shen Xinya’s eyes were visibly shaking. As if in a daze, she stared at him, her eyes wide open.

Xie Feng’s expression cooled slightly. Although neither showed any offensive behavior so far, the girl’s attitude towards him was too strange. In addition, Xie Feng had to be suspicious of everyone on this flight.

Wanting to end the doubt, Xie Feng extended his hand in an attempt to remove the scarf that covered the girl’s face. However...

*Clap!*

A soft and delicate hand extended from the side and caught his wrist with precision. Yin Yue’s slightly annoying voice sounded in his ears:

"That’s pretty rude of you, don’t you think?"

Xie Feng’s pupils contracted slightly and a word appeared in his mind:

’Esper!’

Even though his previous movement seemed slow and normal, it was actually incredibly fast! But the woman who had been silent since the plane took off caught his hand so easily!

Xie Feng’s gaze cooled completely and he looked at Yin Yue like a lion looking at a gazelle. With one quick movement, he turned his wrist and caught Yin Yue’s hand tightly.

Yin Yue, in shock, made a pained face at Xie Feng’s strong grip. She could not believe it!

"Who the hell are you?"
