Sitting in the aisle seat of the airplane, Li Sichen kept standing up and looking around, his expression uneasy and anxious, muttering to himself, "It's not safe, this place is not safe, I need to find a different spot quickly..."

His unusual behavior caught the attention of a young couple sitting nearby.

"Unsafe? What a joke! This plane is one of the most advanced in the world, how could it not be safe? Hmph, what a clueless bumpkin!" The man sneered, clearly unimpressed. He was dressed head to toe in designer brands, a stark contrast to Li Sichen's simple attire.

After mocking Li Sichen, the man turned to his girlfriend and complained, "I told you to book the tickets earlier, but you forgot. Now I have to sit in economy with these clueless poor people. How embarrassing! At least there's no one I know on this flight, or I'd be humiliated!"

The woman, who had been scolded, didn't get angry. Instead, she pouted and cooed, "Young Master Lei, it's my fault this time. Once we land, I'll make it up to you... or maybe I can make it up to you in the airplane toilet after takeoff?"

While she was whispering sweet nothings to Young Master Lei, her eyes kept darting toward Li Sichen.

Because Li Sichen was just too cute, too handsome, and too charming! At fifteen, he had a delicate and handsome face, a tall and straight posture like a pine tree, and a presence that was almost ethereal. Even though his face was a bit pale, this only added to his allure, giving him a delicate and endearing quality.

Not just women, but even men would be captivated by Li Sichen without realizing it.

Young Master Lei, noticing his girlfriend's wandering eyes, flew into a rage. He stood up abruptly and slapped Li Sichen across the face, shouting, "Dare to seduce my woman? Do you want to die?"

Young Master Lei's move was quick and sudden, but his slap didn't land on Li Sichen's face.

As soon as his hand raised, Li Sichen swiftly reached out and grabbed his wrist, immobilizing him.

Young Master Lei felt as if his wrist was clamped in an iron vise, the intense pain making him grimace and scream, "Ah—let go, let go now, or I'll kill you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sharp slap. His face swelled up with a burning sensation.

It was Li Sichen who had slapped him.

"You... you actually hit me?"

Young Master Lei was stunned. He had always been the one bullying others; how could he be bullied like this?

"Do you know who I am? I'm Lei Laohu's son! You actually hit me?!"

Lei Laohu...

Hearing this name, many of the onlookers on the plane changed their expressions.

Lei Laohu was no ordinary person; he was a well-known figure in Yongcheng. Starting from the river sand business, he built the Lei Family Group into a real estate giant in less than a decade. It was said that he had significant influence in both the legal and illegal circles in Yongcheng. Even the wealthy and powerful would suffer dire consequences if they crossed him!

Seeing the fearful expressions around him, Young Master Lei smirked triumphantly and said to Li Sichen, "Boy, are you scared now? If you kneel and beg for mercy, it might still be in time..."

But before he could finish, another sharp slap echoed, and the other side of his face also swelled up.

"Even if you were the son of the emperor, if you provoke me, I'll still slap you," Li Sichen said calmly, as if slapping Young Master Lei was a trivial matter. As for Lei Laohu, he didn't take it seriously at all.

Young Master Lei's mouth gaped open, wanting to say something threatening. But the words died on his lips—his courage had been completely shattered by the two slaps.

At that moment, a flight attendant with remarkable appearance and demeanor approached, looking anxious.

Young Master Lei, like a drowning man clutching at a straw, shouted, "Flight attendant, you came just in time! This bumpkin hit me! Get him off the plane! Having someone of such low quality on the plane is a threat to our safety!"

However, the flight attendant didn't even glance at him. She walked straight to Li Sichen and said nervously and respectfully, "Mr. Li, hello. I am the chief flight attendant for this flight. We made a mistake by having you sit in economy. We have now prepared a seat for you in first class. We hope you will honor us by moving there..."

This sudden turn of events left Young Master Lei completely stunned. For a moment, he forgot about his complaint and asked, "Wait, I asked about upgrading earlier, and you said there were no seats in first class?"

The chief flight attendant explained, "Sir, there are indeed no seats left in first class. However, Mr. Li is a VIP of our airline, so we kindly requested a first-class passenger to give up their seat. We also provided that passenger with a substantial compensation..."

As the chief flight attendant spoke, everyone was stunned.

It wasn't unusual for someone to upgrade from economy to first class, but for the airline to pay someone to give up their seat in first class was unheard of!

What kind of background did this young, cute, and handsome man have?

Many people began to speculate curiously.

Hearing that he could change seats, Li Sichen visibly relaxed, and the anxiety and worry on his face disappeared instantly.

However, he didn't follow the flight attendant to first class. Instead, he said, "First class is fine, but that place isn't good. Just give me a different seat in economy."

Choosing to stay in economy instead of taking a free first-class seat?

Was this guy crazy?

People couldn't help but roll their eyes at Li Sichen's choice.

"This..." The chief flight attendant, clearly surprised by Li Sichen's request, hesitated for a moment. After confirming that Li Sichen was serious and not joking, she could only arrange for him to change to a different seat in economy.

But she also added, "Mr. Li, we will keep the first-class seat reserved for you. If you want to move there at any time, just let us know."

"Thank you," Li Sichen nodded.

Sitting in his new seat, he completely relaxed, a stark contrast to his previous anxious state. He even took out a book to read. The text in the book was so obscure that no one could understand it.

The chief flight attendant sneaked a peek and saw the strange title of the book—*Bu Shi Yuan Gui* (The Original Turtle of Divination).

After Li Sichen left, Young Master Lei stood there for a moment, ultimately not daring to chase after him for revenge.

He then awkwardly sat down, but not in his own seat. Instead, he sat in the seat Li Sichen had just vacated.

Unexpectedly, Li Sichen, who had moved a few rows forward, suddenly turned around and shouted, "Don't sit in that seat!"

Young Master Lei's face turned red with embarrassment. He stiffened his neck and shouted back, "You're gone, so why should I care where I sit? I'm sitting here today, so what are you going to do about it?"

"You'll be in for a bloody disaster then!" Li Sichen didn't say anything else, just threw out that warning and continued reading his book.

"Bloody disaster? Go to hell with your bloody disaster, do you think I'm scared?" Young Master Lei clearly didn't believe Li Sichen, muttering under his breath. He didn't dare to speak too loudly, fearing another slap from Li Sichen.

Soon, the plane started moving, slowly heading towards the runway.

As it turned a corner, the plane suddenly jolted. For some reason, the overhead compartment above Young Master Lei's seat popped open. A piece of luggage fell out and hit him on the head with a loud thud.

"Ah—"

Young Master Lei let out a piercing scream, a long gash appearing on his head. Blood gushed out, instantly covering his entire head.

The bloody disaster had actually happened!

Was it a coincidence, or did Li Sichen have some kind of foresight?

"Idiot," Li Sichen muttered without turning his head.

"But it's for the best. With the bloody disaster averted, I can now travel in peace."

He closed his book and began to rest with his eyes closed.

(With a new book out, I'm feeling quite nervous! I hope everyone will continue to support my new book! More votes, more collections, thank you!! Also, today is Xiao Wu's birthday. Releasing a new book on my birthday, I hope for good luck!)
