Chapter 131: Chapter 131 Going Home

A night of enchanting dreams passed, and it was morning.

Lin Xinlan, preoccupied with her thoughts, woke up quickly.

Rong Shaoze behind her also woke, and she sat up asking, "Can I go out and join the tour group today?"

The man yawned lazily, smiling, "You did well last night, go, I’ll take you."

"No need, I can go by myself," she hurriedly said.

Rong Shaoze got dressed and said in an undeniable tone, "I said I would reward you, and I will. I’ll take you, how about that for a reward?"

How was that a reward...

Lin Xinlan cast her eyes downward and could only nod, "Alright then."

Luckily, she had indeed joined a tour group, or else she would have been exposed.

Rong Shaoze drove her to the airport in his flashy Lamborghini and then found the team. There were ten people in the tour group, including two young girls.

When they saw Rong Shaoze, they screamed in unison, relentlessly exclaiming how incredibly handsome he was!

Seeing Rong Shaoze putting his arm around Lin Xinlan’s shoulder and giving her a few words of advice, they showed envious and jealous looks.

In their eyes, Lin Xinlan was undoubtedly a very fortunate woman.

A handsome and wealthy husband who personally drove her to the airport—so considerate.

However, Lin Xinlan’s expression remained indifferent throughout and didn’t show any intimacy. Some people are like that, the happier they are, the more understated they seem.

The things we cannot have often make us the most restless.

In the eyes of the two girls, Lin Xinlan had so much poise, managing not to show off at all. Silently, they reflected on their own less composed natures and stopped staring at Rong Shaoze.

Rong Shaoze raised an eyebrow, a flash of surprise in his eyes.

How did he find that Lin Xinlan had a more commanding presence than him...

After dropping her off at the airport and exchanging a few words, Rong Shaoze was ready to leave.

He smoothed her hair, leaned down to kiss her forehead, and softly said, "Have fun, spend as you wish, don’t skimp on yourself, understood?"

"...Okay," she replied lightly, subtly turning her head away.

Rong Shaoze gave a faint smile, then put on his sunglasses and turned to walk out of the airport terminal. To others, he must have seemed like an incredibly good husband.

But no one knew how cruel and heartless he was to her behind closed doors.

Once she was sure he had driven off, Lin Xinlan hurried to tell the tour guide she wanted to withdraw from the tour. The guide was incredulous, saying that it was almost impossible to get a refund at this point.

She declared she didn’t want a single cent back, signed the withdrawal contract, and immediately took a taxi to the bus station.

She dared not take the train, as all trains now required real-name registration; if she bought a train ticket, Shaoze would easily find out where she had gone.

After buying a bus ticket, Lin Xinlan switched off her phone and began her journey home.

Six hours later, the bus stopped in a small city.

Lin Xinlan, luggage in hand, found her way to the nearby bus station and boarded another bus.

This journey took only an hour, and the bus arrived in a small town—her hometown.

She didn’t go directly home but first visited a supermarket. She bought lots of food, toys, and of course, didn’t forget to pick up a few ice creams.

The closer she got to her front door, the faster her heart beat with a mix of excitement and trepidation.

She didn’t know whether Xiaocong had grown taller, slimmer, or perhaps had completely changed in appearance.

She even worried that she wouldn’t recognize him...
