In Mo City Airport, as soon as Pello and Wen Maixue entered the airport, they attracted quite a bit of attention. This young couple, distinguished in appearance and possessing noble titles, had appeared on the covers of several domestic and international magazines multiple times in just over a month. The airport had even specially opened a boarding lane for their exclusive use.

Sitting in the airport VIP lounge waiting for the plane to take off, Wen Maixue was critiquing a fashion magazine. Pello would occasionally chime in agreement, his gaze drifting towards the sky blue outside the waiting room and the planes that resembled large birds.

The VIP lounge was sparsely populated, and it was about twenty minutes before boarding when another couple entered.

Hang Yishao and Su Ziceng had already arrived at the airport but were delayed by a minor incident. Su Ziceng thought about a problem, as the Su Family was still under bankruptcy protection, and as a public debtor paying off debts for the Su Family, she should still be within the bounds of spending restrictions, logically meaning she could only fly economy. However, the plane tickets were booked by Hang Yishao, causing her to hesitate for a while before finally entering the VIP lounge after confirming the situation with the airport ground staff.

When she saw that there were only two other people in the vast VIP lounge, Su Ziceng breathed a sigh of relief. She had been worried about running into acquaintances from Mo City and stirring up unnecessary trouble. With only two people, she wouldn’t need to be so nervous. Unfortunately, those two people were not just acquaintances but rather very familiar ones.

Once they clearly recognized each other, Wen Maixue’s expression shifted slightly, immediately clinging to Pello and sarcastically remarked, "It seems these days, spending bans are nothing but a farce."

Su Ziceng instantly wanted to leave, preferring to sit in economy rather than see him, let alone add Wen Maixue to the mix, though her luggage was still carried by Hang Yishao.

"Rather than comfortable seats, we’d better prefer peace and quiet," said Hang Yishao as he began leading the way out with the luggage, preferring to endure a few uncomfortable hours rather than bother Su Ziceng.

A fleeting smile crossed Su Ziceng’s face, challenging to catch, but Pello noticed it, seeing less gloom and more contentment in her eyes. She had reasons to be content — she was, after all, back with Hang Yishao.

Once the waiting room quieted down again, Wen Maixue pursed her lips: "Really can’t understand what’s so good about Su Ziceng. Hang’s heir actually went back to her, not fearing his family’s opposition." When Su Ziceng was still a wealthy heiress, the Hang Family might have been considering a marriage alliance, but now that the Su Family has fallen, the Hang Family no longer needs to cozy up to the Su Family.

Wen Maixue’s thoughts, though trivial, indeed fit the interests of a rising family like the Hang Family. After listening, Pello’s initially cool gaze softened. Wen Maixue was right. If someone in the Hang Family happened to forget this point, he wouldn’t mind "reminding" them. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

For Hang Yishao, accustomed to spacious seats, the somewhat cramped seating was quickly replaced with another pleasure. As soon as they were on the plane and had just fastened their seatbelts, she began reviewing documents.

This trip to Bianjing City was imperative. To fully settle all the dues including the workers’ wages, Su Ziceng had to resolve the issue of repaying the Commercial Bank loan.

Watching Su Ziceng frown, sigh, and occasionally beam at close range was all very novel to Hang Yishao. Outside were fluffy clouds, and beside him was a bright, fair face. Hang Yishao, comfortably coiling his legs and leaning towards Su Ziceng, occasionally explained those troublesome numbers to her.

"Do your parents know you’re accompanying me to Bianjing City?" asked Su Ziceng after finishing all the documents, carefully putting them away.

"I don’t need their approval for my actions, as you know," Hang Yishao said, indirectly addressing the issue. In fact, aside from work at the company, only Hang’s mother knew about this matter. Hang’s father had been abroad on a business trip. Although Hang’s mother dared not stop Hang Yishao’s fondness for Su Ziceng, if Hang’s father learned of this after returning, he probably wouldn’t agree so easily.
