Chapter 200: The Socially Anxious Girl on the Plane
Twenty-two hours later, a Boeing 777-300ER passenger plane departing from Shanghai landed at Porto International Airport in Portugal.

Lu Mingfei had a sore back from this flight. Although Lu Mingze was generous enough to buy him a business class ticket, it had been a long time since he had been on a transoceanic flight for more than ten hours, and this flight still made Lu Mingfei feel uncomfortable all over.

Lu Mingfei originally wanted to spend the ten hours sleeping, but after he put on the eye mask and fell asleep for only a few hours, the old man with a red beard next to him started snoring at the right time. The snoring was so loud that Lu Mingfei, who was sleeping, thought he almost encountered a plane crash.

It was not until the plane was about to fly to Europe and the red-bearded uncle got off the plane in Austria that Lu Mingfei hurriedly seized the time to continue sleeping.

However, he did not get any sleep because after the old man with red beard got off the plane, another passenger got on the plane at the Austria stop.

Lu Mingfei, who was wearing an eye mask, didn't want to pay attention to it. He just wanted to fall asleep quickly. After all, after getting off the airport, he still had to cross three districts before reaching his final destination, Santarem.

But as the passengers next to him sat down, a disturbing fragrance wafted over, making it impossible for Lu Mingfei to fall asleep.

To be honest, this faint fragrance is actually very elegant, and one can even smell that it is quite high-end. However, for Lu Mingfei who wants to sleep now, no matter how fragrant the fragrance is, it is too strong and stuffy.

Lu Mingfei pulled off the blindfold irritably, wanting to see who was wearing such a strong perfume. The moment he pulled off the blindfold, he saw a pair of emeralds.

No, that was not an emerald, it was just a pair of eyes. It was just that the eyes were so green and clear that for a moment, Lu Mingfei saw them as a pair of emeralds.

The owner of the eyes was a blonde girl dressed in classical and elegant clothes. She was between a young girl and a young girl, wearing a white shirt and a red skirt, a pair of brown dress boots with three-inch heels, and a little baby fat on her cheeks.

Lu Mingfei even saw a gorgeous cane with an emerald on the top placed next to her hand, and he had no idea how she brought it on the plane.

Lu Mingfei's heart skipped a beat. The girl's beauty was not fierce, but it was enough to be unforgettable.

When Lu Mingfei was at Kassel College, he had heard that Austria was the little Chengdu of Europe, with beautiful women everywhere, and all the girls were beautiful and gentle. Today, he saw that it was indeed extraordinary. The looks of any girl he saw could compete with Ling Nuonuo and the other girls.

Noticing Lu Mingfei's gaze, the girl didn't say anything. She just casually took out a German-Portuguese dictionary from the backpack beside her and started flipping through it, crossing her legs and swinging them.

Lu Mingfei took an early morning flight and it was already early morning when he got off the plane. There were almost no people in the airport.

After Lu Mingfei came out of the business class corridor and collected his suitcase, he quickly found the taxi boarding point outside the airport by communicating with the airport staff in English.

However, I don’t know if it’s because Europeans lead too leisurely a life, or because it’s too early, but there wasn’t even a single taxi at the waiting area outside the airport.

Lu Mingfei suddenly remembered the "Lin Yi" magazine he read when he was a child. The magazine said how hardworking foreigners were, and how they never slept in and could see the sun at four o'clock in the morning every day.

Lu Mingfei wanted to scold the person who wrote this article: Damn, who said that foreigners get up at 4 a.m. every day? Isn't this 4 a.m.? There is not even a taxi at the airport. And which country has the sun at 4 a.m.?
Lu Mingfei glanced at his phone. The airport bus would not start operating until 6:30, which was still more than two hours away.

The little angel's flight was four hours earlier than his, and he didn't know where she was now, or whether she had arrived safely at her grandmother's house.

"Life in these old capitalist countries is a bit too health-conscious."

Lu Mingfei sighed, and suddenly saw a pair of old leather boots standing not far in front of him. Looking up along the boots, Lu Mingfei saw a red skirt, a white pleated top and a pair of emerald eyes in turn.

Lu Mingfei was stunned. He only saw the girl's lips move slightly, then immediately closed, and turned away with the help of her cane.

“What the hell is this…” Lu Mingfei muttered as he watched the girl’s receding back.

However, the girl didn't walk far before she continued walking towards him and stopped 5 meters away from Lu Mingfei, rubbing her toes nervously on the ground.

Lu Mingfei looked at the girl's hesitant face and felt that he might understand what she wanted to do.

"Can I help you?" Lu Mingfei asked.

He remembered that the girl boarded the plane in Austria. The common language in Austria should be German. He didn't know if she could understand him if he spoke English.

The girl looked at Lu Mingfei's face, pursed her lips for a long time, and then said in authentic Imperial Capital dialect: "I can speak Chinese."

Lu Mingfei was startled, thinking, "You can speak Chinese, but you haven't spoken to me for a long time. Besides, has our motherland become so powerful?" In Europe, any blonde foreign girl I meet speaks Mandarin better than me.

"Oh, then, do you need any help?"

Lu Mingfei forced an elegant smile on his face. After all, when he went abroad, he no longer represented his own image. He had to get rid of his previous gloomy face. He couldn't let down his ancestors. "Is this the taxi waiting area?" the girl asked. "I don't understand Portuguese very well."

"That should be it. I asked the airport staff and they said this is the place to wait for taxis." Lu Mingfei said, "Didn't you ask anyone when you came out?"

The girl was silent.

Looking at the girl's appearance, Lu Mingfei suddenly understood that this beautiful foreign girl was actually a social phobic, so she didn't dare to ask the staff where to get a taxi when she came out. No wonder she was so hesitant when facing him just now.

People say European girls are hot and unrestrained, but it seems that's not entirely true.

After getting Lu Mingfei's answer, the girl dragged her suitcase to a position about five meters in front of Lu Mingfei without saying thank you, and stood there leaning on her walking stick.

At this time, Lu Mingfei was still wondering why the girl had to walk so far.

After sitting for a while, a xenon light finally shone from afar and a taxi appeared from the corner.

Just as Lu Mingfei was about to wave, he saw the girl walk to the side of the road first and wave the cane in her hand.

Lu Mingfei's heart skipped a beat and he suddenly came to his senses.

Damn, it turns out this girl wanted to steal the car!

It was obviously me who came first!
The taxi stopped by the side of the road. The girl dragged her suitcase to the back of the car. Just as she was about to open the trunk, she was held down by Lu Mingfei.

"Sister, this is a bit immoral." Lu Mingfei said.

The girl looked up in surprise, "What's wrong?"

"I was clearly the one waiting for the car here first, how could you have taken it away?"

The girl blinked, "But isn't the car parked in front of me?"

"That's..." Lu Mingfei was speechless, and then he realized, "You ran in front of me, so why didn't the car stop at your place?"

The girl lowered her head and thought for a while, "I can give you money. I have something urgent to do. How much do you want? Is a Swiss bank check okay?" As she spoke, she took out a checkbook from her pocket.

Lu Mingfei didn't expect that he would meet a rich little girl who liked to throw money at people, and he almost fell in love with her. But thinking that he had to get to the little goddess as soon as possible, reason overcame desire.

"I have something urgent to do..."

Lu Mingfei looked at the girl's innocent emerald eyes, unconsciously avoided her gaze, waved his hand and said: "Forget it... Let's share a car, is that okay?"

The girl tilted her head: "Carpool?"

It seems that this Chinese word is a bit advanced for girls, Lu Mingfei explained: "It means two people with different destinations take a car together, and each pays half of the fare."

“Oh.” The girl nodded. “Although I’ve never shared a car with anyone before… but okay.”

The two put their luggage in the trunk, the girl sat in the back seat, and Lu Mingfei sat in the passenger seat very gentlemanly.

"By the way, you haven't asked where you are going yet? Would it be convenient for you to take me to the bus station or train station in the city?" Lu Mingfei turned around and asked the girl.

"Let me see... this is where I'm going."

The girl put her walking stick aside, took out a folded map from her bag, and then, under the dim light from the car, she read out a Portuguese word crookedly.

"Santarém."
