Chapter 729: Chapter 729: Mr. Ye’s Aura is Just Imposing
“Even if you outnumber me, I’m not afraid, Song Xiaoxin. You still haven’t answered my question—do you really want to see me strut my stuff right now?” Ye Shu kept advancing towards Song Xiaoxin as she spoke.
“Psycho, do you think I’m going to make a scene in public and be a laughingstock? Young Master Ye, time will tell, let’s wait and see!” With that, Song Xiaoxin walked over to the other side of the waiting room.
A Lai and the bodyguards had no choice but to follow. “Sister Xin, what’s there to be afraid of her? We have more people, why should we avoid her?”
Song Xiaoxin gave A Lai a disparaging look. “Do you even know how to speak? Why would I avoid her? I simply don’t want to sit too close to such low-class people, that’s all.”
“Yes, yes, Sister Xin is right. That Ye Shu is naturally annoying to look at. If I were on the same flight with her, it would be such bad luck.”
Song Xiaoxin snorted coldly. “I’m already annoyed just seeing her. Just wait till we get to Country S, she’s going to get what’s coming to her!”
In reality, Song Xiaoxin was scared. After the last few encounters, she felt there was always something impenetrable about Ye Shu, something that overpowered her, making her hesitant to provoke further trouble.
Moreover, in her view, Ye Shu was full of schemes. She had just now brazenly confronted Song even though she knew Song had bodyguards with her, probably plotting some nasty trick in her mind, which is why Song Xiaoxin prudently stepped aside.
Seeing Song Xiaoxin sneak away with her tail between her legs, Ye Shu smiled. In truth, she had simply been bluffing; what leverage did she really have?
She found a quiet spot and began reading a geography magazine about Country S. Song Xiaoxin was correct; Ye Shu was cramming for Country S, especially for the location map of the Bansai Base, as well as local customs and religious beliefs—all crucially important information for her.
Fortunately, Ye Shu was conversant in multiple languages, and she could understand just about anything as long as it wasn’t specialized jargon from a rare field.
After boarding, Ye Shu indeed spotted Song Xiaoxin. Luckily, this international flight featured a new luxurious airline with first-class compartments that were separate private booths, unlike many domestic flights where the first class was simply separated by a curtain. Once the door was pulled shut, nobody could see anyone else.
Paying several times the price of regular tickets naturally meant much more comfortable conditions. Each small compartment had its own video player, a small washbasin, and an assortment of red wine and fruits available.
Song Xiaoxin was very displeased to see Ye Shu next to her and quickly pulled the compartment door shut.
The international flight offered free Wi-Fi service; as long as smartphones were set to airplane mode, they could be used, so Song Xiaoxin quickly received a message from her assistant A Lai on WeChat.
[Sister Xin, that bitch Ye Shu is sitting right next to you. Do you want to figure out a way to get rid of her?]
[No need. The plane has real-time surveillance. You can’t do anything to her. Let’s wait until we’ve landed.]
After closing her compartment door, Ye Shu began meditating with her legs crossed on the chair. Because of the new consortium formation, she had been neglecting her practice of Ancient Tai Chi.
Now was a good opportunity to meditate, seeking Serenity for her mind and relaxation for her body.
For others, more than ten hours might be a long slog, but for Ye Shu, those hours were an opportunity to silently recite the Ancient Tai Chi Secret.
Once landed, Ye Shu headed straight for the airport exit. Being unfamiliar with the place, her first task was to contact our Embassy in Country S and seek their assistance in rescuing hostages.
