Chapter 414: Chapter 414: Return to the Country
After the police arrived, they took Ye Chen and Lin Yuqing’s statements and then reviewed the museum’s surveillance footage.
After eliminating Ye Chen and his group as suspects, they let them leave and then closed off the museum.
Upon returning to the hotel, Lin Yuqing’s mood was visibly low.
Ye Chen teased her, saying, "What’s wrong, Yuqing, feeling unhappy?"
"No, I just want to go back to our country," Lin Yuqing said. "We’ve been in America for so long, I want to go back to Huaxia. When can we go back?"
Hearing this, Ye Chen smiled and replied, "We can go back anytime, as soon as you want to return, we’ll go."
Lin Yuqing clapped her hands happily, "Then let’s go back today, I’ll buy the plane tickets!"
With that said, Lin Yuqing pulled out her phone and started booking flights back to Huaxia.
Watching her do this, a bitter smile appeared on Ye Chen’s lips; he knew why Lin Yuqing suddenly wanted to return.
After all, apart from him, she didn’t have many friends here, and every time they traveled, she encountered various troubles.
Although they had gotten used to this lifestyle over the past few months, if Ye Chen had to choose, he would still prefer to return to Huaxia with Lin Yuqing.
After all, he also enjoyed the cuisine of Huaxia and was even more fond of its culture.
Thinking this, Ye Chen’s gaze grew cold as he looked at the distant night sky.
After Lin Yuqing finished booking the tickets, she walked over to Ye Chen and said, "Ye Chen, I’ve finished booking, let’s pack up and head to the airport!"
"No rush." Ye Chen shook his head. He reached into his pocket, pulled out a cigarette, and handed one to Lin Yuqing.
Lin Yuqing took the cigarette, lit it, took a deep inhale and said, "Ye Chen, thank you for accompanying me to America. Don’t worry, I’ll keep the promise I made to you, I really want to hurry back now."
"Mhm." Ye Chen nodded slightly.
The two of them chatted about other matters and soon, the flight information Lin Yuqing had booked was sent to their phones.
Promptly, they quickly packed their luggage and then hurried to the airport.
After arriving at the airport, they collected their tickets and boarded the flight to Huaxia.
Half an hour later, the two landed at Capital International Airport.
Returning to Huaxia, back to their familiar homeland, both Ye Chen and Lin Yuqing felt very happy.
Just as they walked out of the airport terminal, a beautiful woman dressed in a professional suit approached them.
This woman, around thirty years old, had an extremely curvaceous figure, especially the snowy white area at her chest, which was enough to make any man drool.
At the moment, she looked at Lin Yuqing and Ye Chen with a professional smile and asked, "Excuse me, are you Miss Lin Yuqing?"
Lin Yuqing glanced at the woman, nodded in confusion and said, "Yes, that’s me."
Upon hearing Lin Yuqing’s confirmation, the woman’s face lit up with a radiant smile and said, "Miss Lin, hello. My name is Ms. Zhang, I’m the deputy manager of the marketing department at Longteng Group, responsible for handling all product representations for the company."
"My boss heard Miss Lin was returning to the country, so he specifically ordered me to ensure your safe return."
"I see," Lin Yuqing realized, "It’s okay, I can manage on my own."
"That won’t do," the woman insisted. "Since you are under the orders of my boss, I must ensure your personal safety."
Lin Yuqing frowned, puzzled, "Why? I won’t cause any trouble for the company."
Ms. Zhang chuckled, her gaze shifting to Ye Chen and said, "Because Miss Lin has a male companion with her, what if he harbors ill intentions towards Miss Lin?"
Ye Chen’s lips twitched the moment he heard her words.
This woman’s words were indeed harsh. How had he become the villain?
"Miss Zhang, you’ve misunderstood, Yuqing and I..."
Before Ye Chen could finish speaking, Deputy Manager Zhang waved her hands and smiled, "Mr. Ye, let’s not talk about this. Miss Lin has been personally designated by the boss as a VIP client. We absolutely cannot afford any mistakes. Besides, I’m also concerned about Miss Lin’s safety."
Ye Chen saw her stance and sighed helplessly. He understood that Deputy Manager Zhang was taking their situation for granted.
Moreover, Ye Chen could clearly feel that Deputy Manager Zhang seemed to harbor hostility toward Lin Yuqing.
Ye Chen wasn’t sure if it was his imagination, but he could even see Deputy Manager Zhang clenching her fists so tightly that her nails were digging into her flesh, yet she seemed completely unaware.
"Miss Zhang, we have other matters to attend to. We’ll contact you another day. Goodbye."
With those words, Ye Chen grabbed Lin Yuqing’s wrist and turned to leave the airport.
Lin Yuqing was momentarily stunned, not comprehending what had just happened.
It wasn’t until they sat in the car that Lin Yuqing came to and asked in surprise, "Ye Chen, why did you drag me away in such a rush?"
Ye Chen shrugged, "Had no choice. If I stayed there any longer, Miss Zhang might have torn me apart. It seemed smarter to make a quick exit."
Lin Yuqing was taken aback, then she remembered that indeed Deputy Manager Zhang did seem somewhat hostile toward Ye Chen.
However, that was understandable. She was just considering Lin Yuqing’s safety.
Deputy Manager Zhang didn’t know Ye Chen, which led to the misunderstanding, but it wasn’t really her fault as she clearly had Lin Yuqing’s interests in mind.
"Alright, where are we headed now?" Lin Yuqing said helplessly.
After a moment of thought, Ye Chen replied, "Let’s find a place to eat first. Are you hungry?"
Lin Yuqing nodded gently.
"OK, then let’s go have some food!" Ye Chen said with a grin.
Having said this, he stepped on the accelerator and the car slowly left the airport.
Meanwhile, as Ye Chen and Lin Yuqing were looking for a place to eat, inside a Bentley sedan, a young man wearing gold-rimmed glasses and handsome features was looking at a photo of them on the screen, mumbling:
"Is this Ye Chen? Quite arrogant, huh."
Beside him, another middle-aged man frowned and said, "Young Master, according to the information I’ve gathered, this Ye Chen is indeed formidable. Should we..."
"No need," the young man pursed his lips and replied, "He’s just a nobody. It would be like flipping my hand to get rid of him. But I have more important things to do for now, so I won’t bother with him yet!"
Having said this, the young man picked up the remote control from the table and switched the channel.
...
The next day.
Longteng Group, CEO’s office.
Longteng Group is one of the top real estate enterprises in the summer.
CEO Long Aotian is a legendary figure who has created countless miracles and is known as the highest record-setter in the history of Longteng Group.
Unfortunately, as Long Aotian aged, Longteng Group began to show signs of decline, with frequent financial difficulties in its real estate projects.
This all led to Longteng Group seeking partnership under pressure from shareholders.
Coincidentally, Lin Group has extensive experience in real estate. After much consideration, Long Aotian decided to invite Lin Group to join Longteng Group.
