Chapter 261 Underage
In the early morning of the 26th, Li Yan dragged his suitcase and left the dormitory as his roommates watched with envy and tears.
They went to the classroom at nine o'clock in the morning to wait for the announcement of final exam results and summer homework assignments, and then they discovered that the person appearing on the podium was mathematics teacher Ye Xin.
"Teacher Guo has something to do today, so I will take my place." Ye Xin adjusted his glasses, a little excited.
The reason for excitement... is that I can personally announce Li Yan's score.
So when he said this result, he was very nervous and his voice was a little trembling:
"Li Yan won the first place in the grade, with a total score of 760 points!"
Everyone applauded , looked back at Li Yan's empty seat.
Lin Zhengmo became the center of the line of sight, so he turned around mechanically and took a look.
Ye Xin didn’t understand why the children in Class 0 didn’t react to such god-like results?
Unfortunately, he missed the first time.
The shock makes people numb.
"Where is Teacher Guo?" Su Ya suddenly asked.
"Something happened." Ye Xin could only answer like this.
Teacher Guo is working as Li Yan’s driver, driving on the highway to the airport.
Li Yan approached Guo Qiwen before the exam, and a sincere request appeared on his face:
“I told my parents that someone from the organizing committee would pick me up after I got off the plane, and I would also buy adult tickets on the plane. The service for accompanying minors is about going to the airport... They are still worried about it. I don’t think it is necessary for them to come by themselves, so, Mr. Guo, can you act as a guardian?”
"I'll take you to the airport?"
"Send me on the plane and tell my parents."
"Okay."
Dare I refuse to agree, little ancestor?
Guo Qiwen asked for leave from Principal Tan. As soon as the reason was mentioned, there was no need to type a leave application form.
On the way, Guo Qiwen asked Li Yan to guess his score, and Li Yan only used two words: "full score."
Ended the topic directly.
“You said you got off the plane and someone was there to pick you up?”
The Dragon Boat Festival in leap May is not a legal holiday. Only people in some areas insist on celebrating another Dragon Boat Festival, so there is no rush to return home. There are no people on the highway now, so Guo Qiwen feels free to chat.
“Teacher Guo’s driving skills are average, right?”
“I really don’t dare to say yes, how can I say this?”
Li Yan said with a smile, “I think the car in front of you is better. Don’t say anything when the traffic conditions are complicated. ”
…little bastard.
"Okay, let's not talk about this." Li Yan yawned, "The organizing committee's instructions are very detailed. They said that after arriving at the venue, there will be a row of minibuses with hotel logos to pick us up and leave every half an hour. One car until it is picked up.”
“Is the service so good?”
“It’s okay. They also have information and won’t wait around. I responded to the request in the mailbox. The information is with the phone number. After receiving the location, just check into the hotel with the invitation letter and ID card.”
“I don’t know how they deal with the issue of minors staying in the hotel,” Guo Qiwen said casually.
As a result, Li Yan suddenly frowned.
"They... really don't seem to know that I am a minor."
"Huh?" Guo Qiwen was stunned.
“When I signed up, I used a pen name and wrote my address. The invitation letter was sent directly to the address. I also only had my phone number and ticket information on my email address. This phone number has never been called to me so far... Maybe I sent the ticket back, which means I will be there in time. The ID card should not be used for the first time until I arrive at the hotel."
...The two people in the car were silent.
Indeed, in the competitions held by the other three publishing houses, the people who are eligible to submit articles are basically famous writers, and reasoning is also a small circle. It is normal for everyone to change their pen names. Who would have thought that the first prize would be a minor? ?
Any graduate student who can get ahead is regarded as an astonishing young talent.
And at this time, ID numbers are still a very private thing and are rarely sent directly on the Internet.
Registering at the hotel is considered normal operation.
It was dark this time under the lamp.
“No, we won’t let you live in the back, right?” Guo Qiwen expressed concern.
"I left as requested by the organizing committee, but they didn't notice it themselves." Li Yan replied instantly, "It would be ridiculous if such a large organization couldn't remedy its own omissions."< br>
"...Okay." Guo Qiwen originally wanted to ask if he needed to buy a plane ticket temporarily to be a guardian.
His pride no longer allowed him to bring it up again.
New Taipei Dongshi Airport is a bit far from the city center. Guo Qiwen drove for an hour and 40 minutes to get there. For him with “average driving skills”, it was really tiring.
"If you don't wear school uniform, you really can't tell that you are underage." Guo Qiwen looked at Li Yan, who was wearing a polo shirt and jeans.
"Wearing school uniforms used to be too high-profile." Li Yan smiled.
The two of them entered the terminal hall together, waiting for the ten o'clock flight.
"It used to take three hours, and it's already one o'clock when we arrive at Beijing International Airport. Don't we have to go to the hotel at two in the afternoon?"
"I'm far away."
"...Okay."
"Have you ever flown on a plane before, Li Yan?" Guo Qiwen asked a lot of questions today.
“No.”
No indeed. I haven’t even flown in my previous life. I am at the airport and haven’t received any information yet. I confirm that I have no experience in flying.
“What do you think about airplanes?”
"Afraid of death."
"..."
"If something happens to the plane, we will die." Li Yan shrugged, "So I don't have a good impression of planes."
"Then you're still coming?"
"Because you want to show off."
"...Okay." Guo Qiwen breathed a long sigh of relief and adjusted his mentality. "I haven't been on a plane for several years. Before I came to New Taipei No. 1 Middle School, I determined to be a writer. I was a Chinese teacher in a small county while flying around. , see the great rivers and mountains of the motherland.”
It is rare to see Guo Qiwen recalling the past, and Li Yan is also very interested.
“I wrote a few articles when I went to a place, walked around, and saved a lot of works. In the end, I actually published them in Linjiang Literature and Art, and I earned a little fame.” Guo, who has always been unfazed by favors and humiliations. The teacher suddenly sighed heavily, full of unwillingness.
“Later, my mother got sick and had to come to New Taipei to see a doctor. In order to take care of her and to have money for medical treatment, I exchanged my fame for a bargaining chip to come to New Taipei to teach, and finally I went all the way. Now, my mother’s illness has been cured, and I have a pretty good job.”
His memory stopped suddenly, and he didn’t know whether it was interrupted by Li Yan’s message about checking in. I don't want to say anything more.
Guo Qiwen's unwillingness is indeed nothing compared to the many sufferings he has seen.
As a son, he really has no room for dissatisfaction.
"Li Yan, although it is a bit selfish, but you can help me see the scenery I have never seen."
This is Guo Qiwen talking to Li Yan before he walked towards the boarding lane. The last words said.
Teacher Guo, don’t be so tragic.
It's me who's going to take the plane, not you, so I'll be a little scared!
Li Yan has never flown on a plane, but the on-site instructions are very good and there is no confusion about where to go.
Seeing airplanes up close is quite shocking, especially when I think about flying into the sky later.
Human beings are amazing.
Li Yan glanced at the people walking around him in a hurry. Most of the people who flew on weekdays were in suits and ties, presumably on business trips.
His seat was by the window, and luckily there was no one around him.
After waiting for a long time, a sweet-sounding announcement finally came, indicating that it was about to take off.
Everyone who flies for the first time likes to watch the scenery gradually being thrown away outside the window.
Except for the nauseating feeling of oppression that makes some people feel sick, this is the only experience that makes them feel like they are in heaven.
It was interesting and thought-provoking. Li Yan was fascinated by it.
So he didn't notice the stewardess standing nearby.
This graceful young flight attendant with a beautiful face repeatedly confirmed the information in her hand.
"Economy class is by the window...No. 17, it's him, right? Underage escort?"
The flight attendant took a few steps forward and looked back at Li Yan.
“This is 14 years old?”
