Although they took peanuts instead of chips, they were both in high spirits and had a good time.
Both of them already knew that the other was going to Las Vegas. When they played 21 o''clock, they checked the flight number and confirmed that they were on the same flight. Naturally, they agreed to leave together and check in together. In this way, two people don''t have to worry about the opponent walking away in the middle of the way, the fun will be a notch higher.
With something to do, time flies. Unknowingly, the waiting time is consumed, and it''s time to board the plane.
This coffee shop is open in the airport, the customers are mainly waiting passengers. In order to facilitate customers and avoid customers in the coffee shop from missing the plane, there is a large screen on the wall of the coffee shop, which synchronously scrolls the boarding time and arrival time of each flight in the airport.
"It''s time to board!" The display screen in the coffee shop is facing Xiao Yao. When Xiao Yao finds the prompt on the display screen, he picks up the cards and waves the waiter to pay.
Just now, when Nicky Thompson sat down to order coffee and the waiter to deliver coffee, the sunglasses on her face had not been taken off. Later, when the waiter brought Xiao Yao''s peanuts, Nicky Thompson took off her glasses, but she deliberately supported her forehead with her hand and side her head. In addition, her loose hair covered her face. At this time, Xiao Yao asked to pay the bill. Nicky Thompson picked up the sunglasses on the table and put them on again.
Xiao Yao has confirmed the identity of the other party, naturally understand the reason for the other party to do so, so just smile, did not speak.
"Sir, you are a cup of coffee and a plate of peanuts, and this lady is a cup of coffee. Would you like to pay separately or do you want to buy them together?" The waiter came up with a clip and asked.
The waiter knew that they were not together, but he also saw that they were chatting and playing cards together. He was not sure about their relationship, so he took their list together.
"I''ll do it, two together!" Nicky Thompson, who was wearing sunglasses, took out a credit card and handed it to him.
The waiter looked at Xiao Yao, but he was surprised to find that Xiao Yao didn''t say anything, so he took the credit card and said, "please wait a moment!"
"Thank you Xiao Yao told Nicky Thompson.
"You''re welcome." Nicky Thompson turned his head and looked at the waiter who went to the bar to swipe his card. He turned back to Xiao Yao and said, "but I guess the waiter must have said in his heart that this man is really not a gentleman!"
"But I don''t think it''s a gentleman to refuse a lady''s kindness!" Xiao Yaodao.
"Ha Nicky Thompson laughed. "That''s a good reason."
"Isn''t it?" Xiao Yao said, "when you just sat down, I was divining. You were watching me. Although we are all waiting for the plane, you are more boring than me in terms of boredom. We just played 21 o''clock. In fact, I''m helping you spend this boring waiting time. You think you should thank me. It''s a good way to buy me coffee. "
"Well," said Xiao Yao, nodding and adding, "I think so, too!"
"You ~" Nicky Thompson looked at Xiao Yao in surprise.
"Lady, your credit card!" The waiter brought back Nicky Thompson''s card.
"Come on, it''s time to check in." Xiao Yao gets up to take his luggage.
Nicky Thompson put away his surprised expression and got up to pick up his luggage.
Now almost all airports have self-service check-in machines to handle boarding passes. Xiao Yao and Nicky Thompson don''t want to be recognized. Naturally, they want to reduce contact with people. Naturally, they both choose to go to the self-service check-in machine to check in.
Both of them have a large suitcase, which needs to be checked in. Most of the airport self-service check-in machines in China can only handle boarding pass, but can''t handle luggage check-in. However, many airport self-service check-in machines in the United States can even handle checked luggage, so there is no problem in this respect.
The next step is to go through the security check.
They went through the formalities together, and naturally they queued up to go through the security check together.
"Shaw, you go first!" When the security check is about to arrive, Nicky Thompson suddenly pulls Xiao Yao and whispers, "I''m going to the bathroom!"
At the time of security check, passengers must take off their sunglasses. Airport security inspectors have seen a lot of stars. Although they generally don''t make any star chasing behavior because of their work, they will inevitably show it in words. Xiao Yao may find her identity.
"I''ll wait for you?" Xiao Yao knew that she was afraid of exposure and said on purpose.
"No, no!" Nicky Thompson said, "you wait for me and you have to get back in line. You go first, find a place to sit and rest, I''ll come to you after I go in! By the way, give me your phone number! "
"All right!" Xiao Yao is not difficult for her, gave her the phone number, and then watched her run to the bathroom.
Xiao Yao is also a star, and also has a considerable reputation in the United States.
However, Xiao Yao''s last public appearance in the United States was at the beginning of last year when he was promoting the masters and Parkour movies. He has not been in the news media in the United States for more than a year, and there is no popularity at present. Although many of Xiao Yao''s deeds are widely spread in the United States, he is a Chinese after all. Americans may be familiar with his name and deeds, but they are limited to his appearance. More than a year later, the probability that he will be recognized privately in the United States is still relatively low.Nicky Thompson didn''t recognize Xiao Yao, and the airport security inspector didn''t recognize Xiao Yao. Xiao Yao passed the security check very quickly and normally.
It''s still a while before boarding, but it''s not too long. There are seats for passengers to rest near the gate. After passing the security check, Xiao Yao didn''t go to the coffee shop any more, so he sat down on the seat at the gate.
After going through the security check, Nicky Thompson also went directly to the boarding gate of her flight, so she didn''t call Xiao Yao, so she smoothly joined Xiao Yao near the boarding gate.
There are a lot of people near the gate. Naturally, they won''t play 21 o''clock in such a place any more. They just sit in their seats and chat in a low voice.
"Xiao, you speak good English!" Nicky Thompson suddenly said to Xiao Yao, "is Chinese English so good?"
"Of course, not everyone is so good, but now there are many Chinese who can speak English." Xiao Yao said, "I speak English well because I have come to the United States many times and have been to Europe!"
"How often do you come to America?" Nicky Thompson said, "because of work? But I remember you said you all worked in Huaxia! "
"I''m talking about basically coming to work in the United States occasionally." Xiao Yao Road, "but more is to travel to the United States! You know, whatever you do, you need to be knowledgeable, so I like to run around. "
"Yes? Where have you been? " Asked Nicky Thompson.
"America, I''ve been to New York, Los Angeles, Boston." Xiao Yao said, "Europe has been to Paris in France, Clement Ferrand, Munich in Germany, London in England, Salzburg in Austria, Africa..."
"True or false?" Nicky Thompson was obviously suspicious. "A photographer?"
"I''m a very successful photographer!" Xiao Yaodao.
"How old are you?" Asked Nicky Thompson.
"Twenty four!" Xiao Yao replied.
"How successful is a 24-year-old photographer?" Nicky Thompson said, "even if you are successful, how can you go to so many places so young? Have you never been to school? "
"My parents are very rich," Xiao Yao said. "Every year I have a holiday, I can travel abroad!"
"Well, tell me what you''ve experienced and seen in those places?" Asked Nicky Thompson.
Xiao Yao picked up some foreign experiences and told Nicky Thompson. Of course, what Xiao Yao said was mainly about what he saw and heard, which basically did not involve himself, so he did not disclose his identity.
As a world-class superstar, Nicky Thompson has also been to many cities and places in the world, and soon believes that Xiao Yao has indeed been to many places. However, Nicky Thompson basically went to those places for work reasons such as concerts or performances. His experience and experience are very different from what Xiao Yao said. So even if Nicky Thompson believed Xiao Yao, he was also interested in listening.
Xiao Yao has been to many places and seen and heard a lot, but the speed of narration is not fast. Xiao Yao has not finished, there are staff at the gate to inform passengers boarding, Xiao Yao also stopped.
"Shaw, what''s your class ticket?" Nicky Thompson asked Xiao Yao.
Nicky Thompson bought a first-class ticket. Because she was first-class, she didn''t mean to ask Xiao Yao about her class when she got her boarding pass at the self-service check-in machine just now. Although Xiao Yao said in the coffee shop that she was not poor, she thought Xiao Yao was an ordinary person and had a low chance of buying first class. She was afraid that she would be embarrassed to ask Xiao Yao.
In many airlines, the boarding time of first-class passengers is earlier than that of other passengers. Now it''s time to board. Nicky Thompson thinks it''s normal to ask. Even if he''s not in first class, he won''t be embarrassed. Besides, Xiao Yao just said that he''s been to so many places. Nicky Thompson has a good chance of buying first class.
"Business class!" Xiao Yao said with a smile, "security check is me first, boarding for you first."
"Oh," said Nicky Thompson, disappointed, "if there''s a seat available in first class, I''ll help you upgrade!"
"No," Xiao Yao said, "you helped me pay the coffee bill. I''ve already been grateful. And I only accept you to treat me to coffee. The cost of upgrade is too big, I don''t accept it! "
"No," said Nicky Thompson, "I just think it''s nice talking to you. I want to hear more about my experience abroad."
"Why don''t you come down?" Xiao Yao said, "come to business class?"
"Descent?" Nicky Thompson was stunned.
"It''s a joke!" Xiao Yao pointed to the gate and said, "the first class is almost finished. It''s time for you to board."
It''s not a non-existent thing, but it usually happens when the flight is overbooked. The airline asks the passengers in the high class to change to the low class and refund a certain price difference. Few passengers take the initiative to request the landing on the plane.
Nicky Thompson saw that there was really no one in the first-class passenger passage, so he picked up his bag and took his boarding pass to board the plane.Nicky Thompson got on the plane, settled his carry on luggage with the help of the flight attendant, sat down in his seat and immediately took out his cell phone. But after thinking about it, she put it down again.
First class is usually in the front of the plane, while business class and economy class are in the middle and rear. When passengers in the latter two classes board, they will go to the first class. After sitting for a while, Nicky Thompson saw Xiao Yao get on the plane and go to the back through his seat.
Nicky Thompson waved to Xiao Yao. He watched Xiao Yao pass the first class and walk to the business class in the middle of the back. Then he turned back, picked up his cell phone and made a call.
"Matt, please check someone for me." After the phone was connected, Nicky Thompson said to the end of the line, "a photographer, a Chinese, whose name is Yao Xiao, is probably the pronunciation. You can help me check if there is such a Chinese photographer, what works he has, and how good he is. In addition, if you can find some other information about him, please help me to check it, the more the better! "
"Why? I met a very interesting person at Boston airport. This is the information he told me. I want to know if what he said is true and what kind of person he is
"Yes, it''s a man. No, I just think he''s funny. You know, the backstage of the award ceremony is to take publicity photos. If his photography level is really good, I wonder if it is possible to discuss with the organizer to ask him to take photos for me. It happens that he also goes to LV and should stay in LV for some time. You can rest assured that if I ask him to take a picture, I will let him meet you first! "
"OK, I see. I''ll wait for your news!"
Nicky Thompson hung up the phone and couldn''t help recalling the contact with Xiao Yao during this period of time. The corners of his mouth involuntarily hooked up.
After a while, Nicky Thompson saw that there were no more passengers at the front door. It was estimated that the passengers were almost boarding, and the flight attendants were basically idle. They reached out and pressed the call button above the seats.
"May I help you?" Soon a flight attendant came over, first reached out and pressed the light of the call button, then bent down and asked.
"I''d like to ask, is there a seat available in first class?" Asked Nicky Thompson.
She found that there were still seats next to the first class, but after all, the door had not been closed. She was not sure whether the tickets had not been sold or the people had not come yet.
"Yes!" This flight attendant should be specialized in serving first class. It seems that he is very familiar with the situation of first class.
"Did you ask if there was anyone in the back who needed to upgrade?" Nicky Thompson asked again.
"No!" The flight attendant shook his head and said, "do you have a companion in the other cabin behind you? Do you need to upgrade? You can tell me the seat number. I can go to inform you specially! "
"Forget it, no more." Nicky Thompson thought about it, shook his head and said, "if you need to upgrade, he''ll come to you. I''m just asking."
"All right!" The flight attendant nodded.
After the flight attendants left, they thought about it for a while. They still ran to the back and found the flight attendants in charge of the two cabins in the back. They asked them to announce that there were seats available in the first class on the aisle of the two cabins in the back. They asked if there were any passengers who needed to upgrade. However, to the first-class flight attendant''s surprise, there were no passengers from the back to the front until the flight was about to take off.
