Lin Waner understood that Sun Zhidong (Meir) was on a unique journey, distinct from those of others, making it challenging for him to haveplete control over his life. With the freedom to make his own choices, he realized that if he ventured out for too long, someone from Aurous Hill mighte looking for him.
Sun Zhidong (Meir) was also aware of his situation and sighed, “Miss, to be honest, I’ve dedicated my entire life to my own pursuits. Now that I’m getting older, I’d rather not worry about these things any longer. My wife passed away early, and my three children are still quite young. In other parts of the world, it would be quite dull to return alone to Aurous Hill and live behind those high walls. If it’s alright with you, I’d like to stay here for a while and reminisce about the childhood of my two brothers.” Lin Wan’er (ni) took a moment to think, then nodded in agreement, saying, “It’s fine for you to stay here. Let’s proceed with that n; you can make suitable arrangements, and I won’t be concerned about you.”
Sun Zhidong (Meir) respectfully sped his hands and replied, “Miss, please don’t worry about me. Let’s get started on the tasks with Mr. Wade as soon as possible.”
“Let’s go!”
Lin Wan’er (ni) gave a slight nod and addressed the four of them, “In that case, Mr. Wade and I will leave first.”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">
The four quickly escorted them to the yard, watching as Charlie and Lin Wan’er (ni) settled into the car, one on the left and the other on the right. As they drove down the mountain, a sense of relief washed over them.
Inside the car, Charlie concentrated on driving while Lin Wan’er (ni) found herself blushing for reasons she couldn’t quite understand.
She sneaked a nce at Charlie, gazing out the window, and after much hesitation, shyly asked, “Honey, how long until we reach the airport?”<fn15c3> Updates are released by </fn15c3>
Charlie replied casually, “About half an hour.”
“Shouldn’t it be called Nujiabao?”
Charlie cleared his throat and asked, “There’s no one else around; do you really want to call it that?”
Lin Wan’er (ni) feigned innocence, saying, “I made a promise to the young master earlier…”
Charlie immediately responded with a serious tone, “Alright, let’s keep that promise.”
After saying that, he adjusted his tone and added, “Honey, we’ll arrive at the airport in half an hour.”
Lin Wan’er (ni) smiled sweetly, her shyness melting away as she responded, “Got it, thank you, dear!”
Feeling satisfied, Lin Wan’er (ni) noticed Charlie’s left hand gripping the steering wheel and curiously inquired, “My dear, didn’t you wear the ring I gave you when you went out?”
Charlie replied nonchntly, “Why would I wear it? The ring belongs to your father, not me. I’m going out with you, and it will still teleport me to you in case of danger. If you happen to encounter Sara, wouldn’t she get stuck in a bug and be unable to escape from Wuzhi Mountain? I think she got that ring for nothing. Instead of wearing it, it’s better to leave it behind.” Then he continued, “Sara can’t even imagine it.”
“We all want that ring of yours. If we leave it behind, even if Sara catches us, we’ll still have some leverage to negotiate with her.”
Lin Wan’er (ni) nodded, saying, “My dear, you think so much moreprehensively than I do. I hadn’t considered that.”
Half an hourter, they arrived at the airport.
Charlie parked the car, and as soon as he stepped out, Lin Wan’er (ni) moved closer, linking her arm with his in a disy of intimacy.
Charlie was taken aback for a moment, but before he could say anything, Lin Wan’er (ni) chimed in, “Shouldn’t couples hold arms like this?”
“Oh…” Charlie realized she was pretending to be a couple with him, so he nodded and replied, “That seems right.”
Lin Wan’er (ni)ughed, “When we board the ne, should I hold your arm again to avoid arousing suspicion from the crew?”
Charlie nodded, “No problem, just follow my lead.”
With that, Charlie took out his phone and checked the flight software. It showed that Sara’s ne had already flown over New Zend and was getting close to Melbourne.
While Lin Wan’er (ni) held onto him, Charlie whispered, “Sara’s ne is already descending. It’s definitelynding in Melbourne to refuel. The entire journey will take at least an hour. We should aim to take off around the same time she does. Since she’s heading to Myanmar first, we have plenty of time, enough to even drive leisurely.”
Lin Wan’er (ni) nodded thoughtfully, sighing, “I haven’t been back in years. Once we reach southern Yunnan, I’ll leave everything to your arrangements.”
