The plane arrived on time.
It turned out that Patrick and the others had worried too much.
Christina reported her safety to her family as soon as got off the plane.
Grandpa always worried that she would fight with others and cause trouble outside, so he ask her to contact local old friends first. Grandpa said that one with great power couldn't defeat a local villain.
Christina sighed and repeated, "Grandpa, I won't fight anyone into the police station... Patrick is also on a business trip to Japan. You can rest assured."
"He's there too?" Grandpa didn't seem to believe it.
Christina wanted to laugh out and turned to the man beside her, "Yes. And your grandson flew economy class on a business trip."
Just as she comforted her grandfather, three of her female colleagues came over.
Christina immediately urged, "Patrick, hurry up and leave."
Patrick tilted his head and looked at her with deep eyes.
"Don't mess with me. It's my first business trip on behalf of the company. I can't mess it up."
Christina immediately explained. Seeing that Patrick still had a cold face, she gave in and coaxed him, "I really can't accompany you now. I'll contact you when I'm done with my work."
She was coaxing him.
Patrick was a little surprised and felt strange.
Christina had no skills in coaxing people, but Patrick was glad to hear that.
Patrick did as she wanted. As her colleagues approached, he turned around and strode away, leaving Rachel and Penny looking curiously at his back.
"Who is that man?" Veronica was extremely curious.
Christina was expressionless, "I don't know him."
Fortunately, the airport was so noisy that Patrick could not hear it from afar.
Penny replied with a long sigh, "Oh. He has such a good temperament." Although she didn't see his face clearly, his figure was really imposing.
Rachel stood there. Staring at Patrick's figure that had fallen into the crowd, she frowned and felt a little familiar.
Penny teased her and chuckled, "Rachel, you don't even blink when you look at him. Do you like this kind of handsome guy?"
Since Rachel entered the company, she had always been very gentle and not in a hurry in everything, as if she had seen through the world. Penny often teased that Rachel was most suitable to be a Taoist.
Christina immediately turned to look at Rachel warily.
Rachel smiled awkwardly and did not answer. Instead, she looked at Christina and asked, "You reported your safety as soon as you got off the plane. It seems that you get along well with his family?"
Christina was shocked for a moment and replied dully, "Not bad."
"Didn't your husband force you to come out to work?"
Penny had already regarded Christina as a friend and had also thought about many of the scenes of her being abused and despised, "Didn't his family persecute you?"
Christina felt a little guilty, "My husband's family are easy to get along with."
"That's impossible. Does your evil mother-in-law stir up trouble? You must have a bunch of evil aunts and uncles bullying you, right?"
"My mother-in-law is a little cold, and my sister-in-law is very quiet." This was Christina's impression. In general, the Hopkins family treated her well.
Penny didn't seem to believe. She felt that Christina was so outstanding. The reason why she had to work after getting married was that she must have married into a bad family.
"Penny, you read too many strange stories."
Their team leader Veronica said arrogantly, "Stop chatting. We don't have too much time. Let's go to the booked hotel first and get prepared. We have to go to the exhibition hall before 6 pm."
"Okay."
Then they headed to the hotel by taxi.
They didn't bring many pieces of equipment with them this time. The live broadcast of the cooperation with IP&G Group was a small project. Christina was the host, Rachel was in charge of writing and revising drafts at any time. Penny set makeup for Christina, and Veronica, the team leader, was the supervisor.
"What about the equipment? Won't we do a live broadcast on the phone?" Christina asked doubtfully.
After arriving at the hotel and putting away the luggage, it was just about lunchtime. They went to the third floor of the hotel for a buffet.
"Of course, it's impossible to live on the phone. It's not a personal media."
Veronica was dissatisfied with Christina, who was unprofessional in the industry, "IP&G Group has a branch here, and they will prepare for the equipment and recording." It also made it convenient for them not to bring heavy equipment with them.
Penny gorged herself on a meal. As she drank and swallowed, she muttered vaguely, "IP&G Group treats us well."
Veronica also thought about it seriously, "I heard that our boss has a relationship with the top management of IP&G Group, but why don't we have an IP&G Group project since our company has opened for a few years..."
"Big boss has invested too many companies. Maybe it has something to do with the new boss who joined this year..."
Christina didn't say anything. Looking at Penny's happy eating, she immediately thought of Crystal. She almost forgot to tell her real best friend Crystal that she had arrived safely.
She went to the bathroom and called Crystal.
"How are you getting along with them?"
"Rachel is a little strange."
Crystal was surprised on the phone, "Rachel is famous for her gentle temper in the company. Why is she strange?"
"Nothing," Christina couldn't figure out the reason. She had a hunch that Rachel was a very smart woman, "By the way, Patrick is also in Japan. He's on the same flight with me..."
Crystal chuckled, "No wonder Chandler couldn't find Patrick at IP&G Group this morning. Patrick's secretary said he had something important to do on a business trip. It turned out that he flew with you."
Christina thought it funny, "He's getting more and more childish."
"It's better for two people to go to the hot spring," Patrick suddenly said.
"Why?"
Patrick looked at her, thought of something, and smiled. "Charles said you don't know how to be romantic."
He had read a book in which it was written that couples who quarreled could be reconciled by going to a hot spring.
"Patrick, let's go eat those snacks."
Christina admitted that she didn't know how to be romantic. Being romantic couldn't satisfy her hunger or quench her thirst. She was very practical. She thought it was the most important thing to taste the local food and regional culture when she came to a new environment.
"These handicrafts are very exquisite. The craftsmanship is amazing."
Patrick followed her to the shops. The small items in these shops were very exquisite. Christina's eyes were shining, but she didn't buy them randomly and just appreciated them.
"What do you like?"
Patrick suddenly asked her in a low voice.
"Just take a look. It's too troublesome to bring it back."
Christina raised her head to look at him. Her beautiful cheeks flushed with excitement and she replied casually, "I don't lack anything."
Patrick looked at her with deep eyes and a slow tone, "I don't know what you want... I just want you to be happy." His voice was very low and soft and his words were simple.
Christina suddenly sparked with him. The glass of the shop reflected on her blushed face.
She thought that Patrick was different from ordinary men. Ordinary men would be very enthusiastic at the beginning of their pursuit of women. They would say a lot of sweet words and promises. But Patrick would tell you how much he loved you after getting married.
"Miss, do you want to buy a lucky cat?"
A local boy ran over. He was about seven years old and in good looking. He wore a tidy primary school uniform and looked very lovely when he smiled.
In his small hand was a porcelain lucky cat. He seemed to be the son of the boss who specialized in selling the products of the lucky cat.
Christin could not understand the boy's Japanese, but seeing him smiling fawningly and holding up the cat, she could guess that he was selling handicrafts.
Japan seemed to like cute things. Their handicrafts were mostly in the shape of a cat.
Seeing that Christina had no intention of refusing, Patrick took out a large denomination from his wallet and handed it over. But the little boy ignored him and looked straight at Christina, waiting for her to speak.
Seeing that Patrick was ignored by the little boy, Christina laughed, "He doesn't want to sell it to you. He wants to sell it to me. Don't snatch it from me."
As she spoke, she took the money from her wallet and handed it over, "Is ten thousand yen enough?"
The little boy took the note, nodded, smiled brightly at her, and stuffed the cat into her hand.
He said to her with a smile, "Be careful of the women around you, lucky cat." The childish japanese sounded very soft and cute, but Christina could not understand it and could only smile.
Patrick, on the other hand, frowned and looked at the little boy with a serious expression. The little boy bowed politely to them, turned around, and ran away. He ran straight ahead, entered the crowd, and gradually disappeared into an alley.
