It was his first time taking a plane and Rong Xingyu was afraid of showing that he was nervous, so he had no choice but to hide slightly behind Ding Yixin.
He even reached out and lightly tugged on Ding Yixin’s hand, almost like he was acting spoiled.
He didn’t say a word, but Ding Yixin could clearly feel the tension coming from him.
Ding Yixin let out a low laugh and led Rong Xingyu inside.
Rong Xingyu sat down on the soft leather sofa while trying hard to control his curious eyes that kept wanting to wander everywhere.
When everything was ready, the plane finally took off.
It was Rong Xingyu’s first time feeling the weightlessness of takeoff and the slight shaking of the cabin.
He couldn’t help feeling a little nervous.
Ding Yixin noticed that Rong Xingyu looked calm on the surface, but his fingers were already gripping the armrest tightly.
Just from those small hands alone, he could tell how uneasy Rong Xingyu was inside.
Ding Yixin held back a laugh and placed his hand over Rong Xingyu’s.
Rong Xingyu: ?
Rong Xingyu blinked his eyes in confusion and Ding Yixin immediately turned his hand over and wrapped Rong Xingyu’s small hand into his own palm.
Ding Yixin’s palm was warm and dry, while Rong Xingyu’s was already slightly damp.
But for some reason, being held like this made Rong Xingyu suddenly feel safe.
His nervous heart, which had been beating fast, slowly calmed down.
Maybe... maybe it was because Dr. Ding was the owner of this plane.
Before long, the plane began to fly steadily and Rong Xingyu finally relaxed.
He saw the blue sky outside the window and suddenly he wanted to take a closer look.
However, when he want to get up, he realized that his hand was still held by Ding Yixin.
Rong Xingyu: ...
"Dr. Ding," Rong Xingyu pressed his lips together and tugged gently at Ding Yixin’s hand, softly reminding him.
Only then did Ding Yixin seem to come back to his senses and release him.
Rong Xingyu didn’t take this "little moment" to heart, because it was his first time seeing such a view from so high in the sky.
Wow. Looks at those huge sea of clouds!
The clouds were so beautiful.
Saying they looked like soft cotton candy wasn’t enough to describe how stunning they were.
The plane flew above the clouds and Rong Xingyu placed both hands against the window by leaning his whole body forward.
From time to time, he whispered a soft "wow."
He looked like a curious child that was fascinated by everything around him.
Ding Yixin sat on the sofa on the other side while watching Rong Xingyu’s adorable behavior.
The fondness in his eyes was almost overflowing into something real.
But Rong Xingyu who was facing the window and focused entirely on the clouds didn’t see it.
Maybe only a short time passed, or maybe Rong Xingyu was so absorbed in the view that he didn’t notice time moving at all when the plane suddenly broke through the clouds.
The sea of clouds disappeared and Rong Xingyu saw the real ocean beneath them.
Even though they were tens of kilometers above the ground, now that there were no clouds blocking his view, he could still see the endless stretch of blue.
Rong Xingyu was completely stunned by the sight.
It was hard to describe the feeling of flying so high in the sky, but seeing all of this truly made a person feel happy.
"Dr. Ding! Come look at the ocean!"
When Rong Xingyu turned his head, his eyes were still bright.
That brightness made Ding Yixin’s expression shift a little.
He smiled and said okay, he then stood up and walked to Rong Xingyu’s side.
Rong Xingyu forgot that Ding Yixin was not like him.
Ding Yixin had taken planes many times, and he had seen all kinds of oceans.
But even though he was someone who had been traveling a lot, Ding Yixin still came to stand beside Rong Xingyu, showing no impatience at all.
He quietly stayed with him and looked at the high-altitude scenery outside the window.
This was the view Rong Xingyu wanted to share with him.
The two of them leaned close together like children, sometimes whispering softly to each other.
Time passed quickly.
After they finished a rich lunch, the plane finally landed on the runway.
The moment Rong Xingyu stepped out of the plane, he smelled the strong scent of the ocean rushing toward him.
He slowly looked around, a little confused and a question mark seemed to pop up over his head.
Where were they???
A few days ago, right when he stepped off the plane, he saw the endless ocean not far away and couldn’t help letting out a soft wow.
This place matched all the fantasies he had about the sea: blue sky, clear water, golden sand...
But when he looked around, he felt a little confused.
Where was this place?
Why did it look like a small island?
He said they were going to the seaside, so he thought they were going to one of those coastal cities.
Then Rong Xingyu learned that this was only one of the private islands under Ding Yixin’s name.
Rong Xingyu: ...
Alright, first a private jet and now a private island.
So this was the world of rich people?
The poor little Rong Xingyu silently cried two sour lemon-shaped tears in his heart.
But a private island had its benefits, there’s no outsiders, no noise and they could play as much as they wanted.
On the first day, they went surfing and Rong Xingyu enjoyed the feeling of riding the waves to his fullest.
On the second day, Ding Yixin took him diving in the shallow sea.
Rong Xingyu seemed to be born loved by small animals.
Even those groups of little fish weren’t afraid of him.
They followed him and even circled around him a few times.
