Chapter 639: International Compet.i.tion Venue – Compet.i.tion About to Begin

It was a long flight to the UK.

Other than Nian Chusheng, Gu Qingjiu didn’t know anyone on the plane. But she was also the only one who could view the international compet.i.tion with these powerful and influential officials.

Even the family members of most of these officials couldn’t tag along.

Among these people, several faces frequently appeared in the news. Although Gu Qingjiu didn’t know them, she searched on the Internet to realize that they were influential bigshots.

It would be an honor to tell others one had seen these people in real life.

Since her ident.i.ty was exceptional, there wasn’t anyone she could chat with on the plane. Most of these officials even greeted Gu Qingjiu in a friendly manner.

An elderly official even asked Gu Qingjiu about the situation in China and the state of some reforms.

Though Gu Qingjiu didn’t know about all these, she responded a little with a smile on her face.

There would be someone around her helping to answer on her behalf.

Hence things didn’t turn awkward.

Although Gu Qingjiu felt bored during this long flight, she didn’t appear tired.

When they got off the plane, UK diplomats welcomed them. Gu Qingjiu even saw some bigshots in the UK.

If it weren’t because no one could take photos, Gu Qingjiu would undoubtedly have taken a picture of such a historic moment.

Since some of them saw that Gu Qingjiu had come with these Chinese officials, they dragged Gu Qingjiu in for a photo with a broad beam on their faces.

Although Gu Qingjiu didn’t know who they were, she greeted them in a friendly manner.

Using the English she just picked up, she didn’t face any obstruction in communicating with them.

The officials seemed accustomed to speaking in a bureaucratic tone. The moment they got off the plane, they ate and met with people. Throughout, Gu Qingjiu tagged along without really understanding what was going on.

Since Nian Chusheng had to accompany some other people, he merely told Gu Qingjiu to follow them closely.

Because of the time difference, when they arrived in the UK, it was slightly late. They were kept busy until night time, and it was only when the day had ended that Gu Qingjiu could finally rest.

But she realized she was still pretty energetic. Unless she was fatigued to an extreme, she wouldn’t feel tired even if she kept herself busy until late at night and woke up earlier the next morning.

The next day, Nian Chusheng sent a guard and introduced him to Gu Qingjiu. “Gu Qingjiu, Commanding Officer Nian said that if you wish to go out to play, you can do so for today. Just be careful not to get lost. We can send two bodyguards and one translator to follow you.”

Flattered by the attention, Gu Qingjiu waved her hands. “No need. Can I just go out by myself? I’ll just walk around in the streets of the city. Nothing’s going to happen.”

The guard hesitated for a moment. Likely because he was notified in advance, he quickly nodded.

“Alright, Gu Qingjiu, do be more careful when you’re out, and try your best to stay around this hotel.”

“Okay.”

Gu Qingjiu only planned to take the chance to shop around.

Considering her injury, Gu Qingjiu wisely strolled around in the vicinity. She bought some souvenirs, then quickly returned to the hotel.

She was currently a trump card China had yet to make known to the world, so no one suspected her. Likely, they merely thought she was tagging along for fun.

But actually, that was indeed the case.
