Chapter 12: Return

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The next morning, Su Jin ate the hotel breakfast early and checked out.

Zhang Chunyang arrived at the hotel at the agreed time too, but why was Wang He in the car as well? Was Wang He here to send her off too? _{freewebnoveℓ.com}

Zhang Chunyang said awkwardly, “Mr. Wang called me this morning and said he needed to go to S City. Your flights are about the same time, so I thought I’d send both of you together. You don’t mind, do you?”

Could she say it if she did mind? Zhang Chunyang was such an idiot. Well, she really did not mind, though. She had some degree of faith in Wang He, and even if Wang He suspected anything, she was sure that he would do anything to harm her.

“I don’t mind. Good morning, Mr. Wang,” Su Jin said, keeping a straight face.

“Morning,” Wang He replied. He was still sitting in the back seat as usual, his laptop propped on his legs. As he greeted her, he moved his black suitcase aside and moved inward, gesturing at Su Jin to sit next to him.

Su Jin had planned to take the passenger seat. “…”

About a dozen minutes into the drive, Su Jin gave the warehouse key to Zhang Chunyang. If Wang He saw them, he made no indication of it, continuing to type out his emails on his laptop.

“When are you sending people over to your warehouse for the goods?” Zhang Chunyang asked without thinking.

Warehouse? Goods?

The typing sounds stopped abruptly. Wang He raised his head and turned to look at Su Jin in confusion.

Sigh, guess she could not avoid it.

Su Jin had no choice but to repeat her whole story to Wang He.

She could not tell if Wang He bought it, but he did not say anything else after her explanation.

“You don’t know, Mr. Wang, but Su Jin’s planning to start a real big supermarket back home. Two whole floors worth!” If Zhang Chunyang was not driving, Su Jin suspected that he would be jumping for joy.

Su Jin held her head. “I’ll tell you once I get things sorted out. It’ll take some time yet.”

“Sure thang, boss. Call me and I’ll be there.” Zhang Chunyang thumped his chest confidently. He was reliable and guaranteed that he could complete any task Su Jin gave him flawlessly.

Her morning flight was right on time, so Su Jin bid the two of them farewell and proceeded to the boarding counter.

Before she got onto the plane, she called Lu Hao, who said that he would pick her up on time. When she thought that they were going to reunite soon, Su Jin felt her heart start to race for some reason. She had not seen her husband for two years, and her face actually turned red for once. She felt like a new bride again.

The plane flew across the sky and slowly landed back down. She was finally back in H City.

Su Jin breathed in the familiar air as soon as she got off the plane. It had been such a long time, and she really missed this email. Whenever Su Jin went anywhere else in the past, she always thought that the air in H City was just different. This was the smell of home.

Probably because it was the weekend, the airport was packed full of people, but Su Jin could not see Lu Hao anywhere.

Had he gotten lost again…?

Su Jin turned on the GPS on her phone and shared her location with Lu Hao. As she watched, the small green dot representing Lu Hao’s location moved in the opposite direction, going further away from her.

…

Su Jin hurriedly called Lu Hao and told him to stay put. It would probably be easier for her to go to him.

She used the GPS to head toward Lu Hao’s direction. Soon enough, she found Lu Hao standing alone in the crowd, looking utterly lost.

…

Lu Hao was wearing simple lounge clothing today, his casual off-white slacks accentuating his long legs. The short-sleeved blue T-shirt he wore highlighted his large pecs and tight waist, hinting at his well-defined and powerful muscles. His strong features and copper skin gave him an aura that exuded masculinity.

Right now, Lu Hao was holding his phone in his left hand. He looked at the crowd around him and then at the the phone in his hand, his expression one of complete confusion.

His little green dot and Su Jin’s little red dot were right next to each other now, but he could not see his wife anywhere! At the same time, Su Jin told him not to move, so he did not dare to take a single step from where he stood right now…

To Su Jin, Lu Hao looked like a Golden Retriever who could not find its bone, so it was going around in circles anxiously.

Lu Hao felt someone tug at his shirt, and then a soft voice called his name.

It was his wife!

Lu Hao the Golden Retriever finally found his bone. He turned around and immediately enveloped Su Jin in a bear hug.

Sh was feeling a little suffocated in his arms. She nearly summoned her vines to knock him away.

“Lu Hao, c’mon, let go already.” Su Jin tried to push Lu Hao’s chest away, not forgetting to cop a feel while she was at it. Tsk-tsk, those were some nice pecs.

Lu Hao felt something soft pressing against his chest. It was ticklish, but it felt good too.
