Chapter 289 Sorry, I'm late
As more and more people's attention was drawn to the outside, the roaring sound finally reached the ears of everyone in the banquet hall clearly.
"It's a helicopter!"
Someone shouted something at the main entrance, and everyone in the banquet hall turned to look outside.
Only Sheng Qianrui, at that moment, finally found Fang Li sitting in the corner.
I never expected her to come.
Thinking of her sudden outburst, Sheng Qianrui's eyes darkened as she stared intently at her.
Fang Li didn't take off her sunglasses; she just sat in the chair with her arms crossed, quietly watching her.
The roar of the helicopter grew louder and louder, and it sounded like someone outside was shouting that the helicopter had landed on the rooftop helipad of the H Hotel.
Fang Li's brow twitched inexplicably.
At the same time, Han Ming's phone on stage began to vibrate wildly.
He glanced at the hushed crowd below, gave the emcee a look, and then walked to a corner to answer the phone.
"Hello? Second Master!"
Han Ming turned to look at the emcee who was starting to go through the procedures on stage again, and said in a deep voice, "Speak."
The caller was his bodyguard at the airport. The wind at the airport seemed to be very strong, and the howling wind came through the receiver, making even the bodyguard's voice sound faint and distant.
"The Fourth Master's people just sent word that President Han left early this morning and should have arrived in Beijing by now. But we're certain he didn't miss a single flight. Do you think President Han might...?"
The bodyguard was still saying something on the phone, but Han Ming didn't hear a word.
All he heard was that Han Xi had left Mamba early this morning!
He came back but didn't show up at the airport on time. Where did he go?
The deafening roar of machinery filled his ears, and Han Ming's heart skipped a beat. His eyelids twitched, and he suddenly looked up at the roof.
Hotel H has a helipad!
Realizing this suddenly, Han Ming's expression changed drastically, and he involuntarily tightened his grip on the phone.
He immediately forgot what the bodyguard was still saying on the phone and looked at Sheng Jinghui with a tense expression.
Seeing his solemn expression, Sheng Jinghui couldn't help but frown.
The emcee was saying, "I hereby declare that today's engagement ceremony is now officially concluded..."
Listening to the emcee's words, Sheng Qianrui kept her eyes fixed on Fang Li, afraid that she would suddenly stand up and say something to stop her.
However, Fang Li didn't say anything this time.
Because Fang Li's phone rang in her palm as well.
A crisp "ding" sounded, indicating an incoming message.
Fang Li lowered her eyes and clicked on it. Below the green dialog box on the screen, a white one finally appeared.
Her eyes flashed, and she immediately clicked on it.
Immediately afterwards, Sheng Qianrui saw Fang Li suddenly stand up from her chair and run out without waiting for the emcee to announce the successful conclusion of the engagement ceremony.
She ran out, and Wen Yang and Yu Tian beside her followed closely behind.
For some reason, Sheng Qianrui suddenly felt uneasy.
Now that Xu Fangli is gone and hasn't caused any more trouble, she should be relieved and happy.
But for some reason, my eyelids, which had stopped twitching at that moment, suddenly started twitching again.
She had just turned around, intending to have her father send someone to keep an eye on Xu Fangli, when she saw that her father and Han Ming looked even more unpleasant than she did.
Noticing her gaze, the two of them looked at her as well.
That look made Sheng Qianrui's heart jump.
......
Ah Li, go upstairs.
These were the four words Fang Li received.
She shone in her high heels, one after another, and ran quickly past the other people who were also running towards the top floor.
He's back... He's back!
No wonder there was the roar of a helicopter, it was him!
Fang Li's heart was pounding uncontrollably, growing stronger the closer she got to the rooftop.
After climbing several steps, just as we were about to reach our destination, the narrow passage ahead was so crowded that it was impossible to pass through.
"Excuse me, could you please move aside?"
Unfortunately, her voice was completely drowned out by the crowd, and no one made way for her.
Just as Fang Li was pushing her way through the people blocking her way, trying to find a gap to squeeze through, the iron gate to the rooftop was opened.
The crowd stirred slightly, but was completely blocked by several tall, dark figures.
Immediately afterwards, two dark figures broke through the crowd and headed towards Fang Li.
"Madam, this way please."
He is Han Xi's bodyguard.
With bodyguards clearing the way, Fang Li easily squeezed through the most congested section of stairs and reached the rooftop helipad.
The dark helicopter had just landed, its rotors still spinning.
The clattering sound, accompanied by the howling wind, made it impossible to open one's eyes.
Fang Li's hair fluttered in the wind as she squinted and slowly took two steps toward the helicopter before stopping to watch the cabin door open.
A few seconds later, the helicopter finally came to a slow stop, and the wind stopped too.
Immediately afterwards, a figure disembarked from the cabin.
Fang Li's heart skipped a beat, and just as she was about to lift her slightly pursed lips, she saw Jiang Bei, who was smiling, jump down.
Seeing the fleeting look of surprise in Fang Li's eyes, Jiang Bei smirked and quickly dodged away, then walked towards the entrance.
He signaled to the bodyguards to loosen the iron gate, and the group of people at the front surged forward instantly.
Among them were many people holding up mobile phones and cameras.
It was at this moment that another tall figure appeared inside the airport.
"My God! What kind of important person is making their appearance with such an aura?!"
"Look, it looks like President Han!"
"President Han? You mean President Han of the Han Group?!"
"Wasn't he supposed to be abroad and not coming back, even unable to attend his engagement banquet with the Sheng family? Has he rushed back?!"
As people in the crowd were speculating, they saw the man, dressed in simple trousers and a black shirt, standing tall and straight, a faint, warm smile appearing on his noble and composed face.
Fang Li's eyes flickered, and almost the instant she saw the man, the corners of her mouth that were about to curl up trembled and she couldn't help but suppress them.
Especially when she saw the man smile at her, she felt a pang of sadness she had never experienced before, and tears welled up in her eyes instantly.
Seeing the woman he had been longing for with red eyes and a face full of grievance, Han Xi's heart, which had initially felt a little joy at the sight of them, suddenly tightened.
His beautiful eyebrows and eyes narrowed in an instant, and a deep, melancholic look, as if tinged with the weight of wind and rain, filled his eyes.
He lowered his brows and gently opened his arms.
Fang Li pursed her red lips, finally unable to resist, and took a step towards him.
They walked faster and faster...
Finally, she almost started jogging, and Han Xi no longer stood still, but slowly took two steps toward her with his arms outstretched.
The next moment, Fang Lifei threw herself into Han Xi's arms.
Han Xi immediately withdrew his hand and hugged her tightly in his arms.
They were both trying so hard; even though they had only been apart for less than ten days, it felt like they had been separated for centuries.
Just thinking about all the things that happened in the capital during the two days he was away, all of which were aimed at Fang Li, made Han Xi almost unable to suppress the anger in his eyes.
He tightened his grip on her arm, pressing his chin firmly against the top of her head, his voice hoarse and pained: "I'm sorry, I'm late."
