Chapter 105: Chapter 105: Return to Kyoto

With the assistance of Sea Spiritual Grass and Xia Yue’s spiritual power, the fish fry released into the sea flourished. Although some were eaten by the existing sea fish, most of them thrived.

Furthermore, instrument detection indicated a substantial increase in the fish population in this sea area.

Nearly a month had flown by during these busy days.

Only three days were left until the old Xia family head’s birthday.

Xia Yue, having packed her things, returned to Kyoto with Chen Bin two days earlier, arranged by Yan Mo.

As soon as Xia Yue and Chen Bin got off the plane, someone came to pick them up.

"Miss Xia, this man is our brother picking us up today. I’ll take you home first, and for the next few days, I’ll be your driver," Chen Bin explained to Xia Yue after they got into the car.

"Just drop me off at my brother’s company, I’ll stay there for these few days. After my grandfather’s birthday celebration, I’ll look for you," Xia Yue, who didn’t like being followed, said to him.

"I’m only protecting you covertly so it won’t make you uncomfortable. If something happens to you and I’m not around, the boss will kill me," Chen Bin told her.

"Alright then" Xia Yue, unable to argue, simply nodded in agreement.

The man who came to pick them up dropped Xia Yue off at Xia Group.

Xia Yue didn’t bring much luggage when she came back, just a gift for her grandfather.

Holding a nicely wrapped flower, Xia Yue entered the office building’s elevator and pressed for the seventeenth floor after Chen Bin took his leave.

She arrived at the front desk of the Nuoxia Group. To get to Xia Yu’s office, she had to take another elevator.

"Hello, I’m looking for Xia Yu," Xia Yue greeted, smiling, as she approached the front desk.

"Hello, ma’am. Do you have an appointment with Mr. Xia?" The young lady at the front desk asked with a smile.

"I’m Xia Yue, I came to surprise him," Xia Yue spoke. It wasn’t a surprise the front desk didn’t recognize her, she hardly came to the office and whenever she did, she was directly escorted up.

"I’m sorry, Miss Xia Yue but without an appointment, we can’t let you in. Moreover, without any proof, we can’t let you up," the lady at the front desk replied politely.

"It’s okay, just call his assistant and ask if he recognizes me. Just don’t tell my brother beforehand," Xia Yue suddenly came up with a solution.

The receptionist looked at Xia Yue’s attire and didn’t think she was a scammer, and so, she called Xia Yu’s assistant and mentioned that a lady named Xia Yue was looking for him.

The assistant knew Xia Yu had a sister named Xia Yue, having met her before.

He asked the receptionist to give the phone to Xia Yue so he could recognize her by her voice.

"Hello, this is Xia Yue," Xia Yue greeted after taking the phone.

"It really is you. I’ll have them let you up right now," the assistant recognized Xia Yue’s voice and told her, laughing.

"Yes, yes." Xia Yue nodded, handing the phone back to the receptionist.

A few seconds after the receptionist took it back, she hung up the phone.

Then she escorted Xia Yue to the elevator, swiping a card and pressing the elevator button for her.

"Thank you," Xia Yue said with a smile as she entered the elevator.

She quickly arrived at the floor where Xia Yu’s office was located. Upon the elevator doors opening, she saw Xia Yu’s personal assistant, Chen Zhu, standing at the door.

"Long time no see Chen Zhu," Xia Yue cheerfully greeted him while holding the birthday gift.

"Nice to see you again, Miss Xia Yue. Allow me to assist you with that. You can wait in Xiaoxia’s office with me, he is currently in a meeting," Chen Zhu extended his hand to take the item from her, smiling, and led the way.

"Mm-hmm," Xia Yue nodded in approval, following him to Xia Yu’s office.
