Chapter 202 Back Home

A YEAR LATER…

At the International airport in City S, there were a lot of people of different status, culture, and countries moving about.

Today was Friday, which was one of the busiest day of the week to fly in and out, hence the reason for the crowd at the airport today.

It was already the beginning of summer, so most of the people flying out wore thin dresses that would help their body temperature cool a bit.

The hot weather did no justice to their skin.

As people moved to and fro with their luggage in hand, a young woman with a huge sunshades covering almost half of her face, strode past the walkway while a luggage being pulled behind her.

The corners of her lips curled up as the exposed part of her skin flushed.

Even after the long hours of flight, there was no signs of exhaustion on her face. Instead, she seemed more energetic as she was in a good mood.

The young woman was putting on a loose nude tank top, a pair of white jean trousers and a brown leather belt secured on her waist.

There was a brown sling bag on her left shoulder. On her feet were a pair of plain brown lita shoes.

Her hair was pulled up in a messy bun secured at the top of her hair, and on her naked neck lay the familiar rose gold necklace with a half-moon dangling on it.

This was the same necklace Mr. Fang had gifted Zhang Liling on the same day she had left City S for Paris.

'It's nice to be back here' Zhang Liling said with a smile dangling at the corners of her lips.

Stepping out of the airport, her beautiful amber eyes scanned the area, and as expected, she found the official car from the famous fashion magazine her mother worked for, and an older man dressed it in a suit and standing beside it with his phone in hand.

The man's serious gaze seemed to be on his screen as he typed away before eventually placing it on his right ear as his darted around his busy surrounding.

"He is really here." Zhang Liling mumbled to herself as she stopped in her steps.

Withdrawing her right hand from her luggage, she dug into the sling bag on her shoulder to take out her phone.

As she glanced at the lit screen, she saw the incoming call from 'xxxx Driver' and slid her finger across the screen to answer the call.

"Hello, Mr. xxxx." Her soft enticing voice rang out.

The man standing in front of the official black car hurriedly spoke into the phone. "Hello, Miss Zhang. I'm currently standing outside the airport. Should I come in?"

The man was asking just in case she needed his help with her luggage.

"No need, I am already outside the airport and I can see you. Look to your left." Zhang Liling instructed as she waved her left hand so he could see her.

Immediately the driver turned his gaze to his left, he saw the figure standing right outside the building and waving at him.

"Miss Zhang, I see you now." He said as he put down his phone and immediately walked forward with a polite smile.

As soon as he got to her side, he nodded as he greeted "Hello Miss Zhang…"

"I will take your luggage," he said before proceeding to reach for it.

"Thank you," Zhang Liling said with gratitude before following him.

In the car, she finally took off her sunshades to reveal her tired eyes, but the smile on her face still reached them.

Flying for over ten hours on a nonstop flight was tiring and left for her, she would have loved to stretch her legs a bit more because she has been sitting for long.

Her butts were already hurting.

"Miss, where would you like to go to? Your apartment?" The driver asked as he ignited the car's engine and drove off.

Zhang Liling's heart raced against her chest as that question reached her ears.

Only a certain place came to her mind as that was where she wanted to be. Mr. Fang's villa.

Still in that great mood, she called out the familiar address and relaxed her back against the seat with an expectant gaze hovering outside the window.

A minute later, she checked the time on her wristwatch. Seeing that it was already 7:25 am, she urged the driver to step on the pedal.

At the same time in Mr. Fang's villa…

Fang Bingwen had just finished dressing for work, and was taking steady steps down the stairs when the housekeeper walked to the foot of the stairs.

"Sir, your breakfast is served. Do you still want your lunch parked for you?" She asked with a respectful gaze on him.

Mr. Fang who had his suit jacket draped on his left arm, and his right hand clutching the briefcase, continued in his steps as he replied, "No need. I will be back for lunch."

"Okay, Sir." Ms. Chu replied before walking away.

Mr. Fang's looks were clean-cut and for the matter of fact, he looked more mature and that serious expression that was conversant with his face, was sitting there.

There was no other notable changes...

In no time, he reached the dining room. Setting his stuff down on one of the chairs, he went to sit at the head table and put his phone next to the tray in front of him before reaching out for his Western style breakfast.

Just as he was about to take a bite from the bread in his hands, his phone vibrated on the table.

He cast a casual glance on the screen to see the text from Bolin.

The details is the text was simple. Bolin was already waiting outside for him.

Ignoring the text, he proceeded to take a small bite bite from the soft sliced bread.

Outside the villa, Bolin who looked nothing different since the last year, sighed softly before slipping his phone inside the pocket of his suit jacket.

Glancing at the time on his silver chain wristwatch, he determined how long it would take Mr. Fang to step out before picking up the folder next to him inside the car.

While waiting for his Boss, he figure that he could go through his schedule.
