Yu Weidong sat down and pretended to sleep, having already come to a conclusion in his mind.

He no longer looked at Ye Fan, Mengyao, and Qiu Wen, as he was mostly certain that the person who harmed Zhao Hai was connected to these three.

To Ye Fan, Mengyao, and Qiu Wen, Yu Weidong was an inexplicable person.

However, the hostility Yu Weidong displayed was quite obvious, which forced the three to pay more attention to him.

"What’s wrong with that guy, asking a few inexplicable questions and then going silent?" Qiu Wen’s eyes flashed as she said displeased, "Master, should I go force him to tell us what he’s really up to?"

"No need, we’re on a plane, don’t make trouble." Ye Fan said nonchalantly, "Since he doesn’t want to reveal his identity, let’s not bother, as long as he doesn’t do anything out of line, we can disregard him."

"Oh." Qiu Wen agreed, though her vigilance towards Yu Weidong heightened to the extreme.

"Just be careful, no need to act like we’re facing a mortal enemy." Mengyao advised.

"In my opinion, there’s no need to worry, if someone causes trouble, it won’t stir up any waves." Ye Fan said indifferently.

Only then did Qiu Wen completely relax.

...

The plane landed at Dongfang City Airport, and Ye Fan, Mengyao, and Qiu Wen disembarked.

Yu Weidong disappeared into the crowd, and the wary Qiu Wen lost her target.

"I definitely need to investigate this person, there’s absolutely something wrong." Qiu Wen thought to herself.

Outside the airport, as soon as Ye Fan, Mengyao, and Qiu Wen appeared, they saw Biyao, Lu Xiangxiang, and Liu Shangxiang.

The three women had come to meet them; Mengyao’s trip back to the country was a secret known to those at home.

"Brother-in-law, I’m here!" Chu Biyao, wearing sunglasses and a baseball cap, saw Ye Fan and rushed to him, holding his arm affectionately, "Brother-in-law, you’re finally back safely, I thought you didn’t want to come back."

After all, Chu Biyao is a public figure, so she naturally needed to disguise herself, otherwise, it would have been a scene of congestion.

"Didn’t want to? What’s that supposed to mean?" Ye Fan asked, puzzled by Biyao’s confusing words.

"There’s a saying, ’Once you have a wife, you forget your mother.’ I worried you’d forget about my sister once you had Fire Phoenix." Chu Biyao chuckled.

"What kind of logic is that? What’s going on in your head?" Ye Fan said helplessly.

"I’m just thinking about what I should be thinking." Chu Biyao justified.

"You, you’re just worrying about unnecessary things." Ye Fan laughed.

"To make sure my brother-in-law remains faithful until my sister marries him, I have to be vigilant until I’ve secured my position as the sister-in-law. Anyone attempting to threaten my sister-in-law status is a potential enemy." Chu Biyao declared confidently.

"Such disrespectful talk, always spouting nonsense." Mengyao warned.

"Hehe." Biyao stuck out her tongue, unfazed by her sister.

"Ye Fan, congratulations on your discharge." Liu Shangxiang approached, smiling.

"Thank you, it was tough on you, I was a burden." Ye Fan said sincerely.

"What burden, it’s not your fault, blaming you would be unreasonable." Liu Shangxiang smiled wryly.

The burden naturally referred to when Liu Shangxiang and Lu Xiangxiang were taken hostage by Sky Net.

"You’re so magnanimous." Ye Fan said sincerely.

He glanced at Lu Xiangxiang, curiously adding, "Why aren’t you speaking, gone mute?"

"What am I supposed to say? Am I supposed to shout ’Welcome next time’ dressed in a lab coat when you’re discharged?" Lu Xiangxiang retorted, "I heard that there was a certain someone who, to save a woman, ventured alone into the enemy camp and got injured, nearly breathing his last. You’re truly compassionate, leaving us all in awe of your heroism."

"Nonsense, that’s not true at all." Ye Fan refuted angrily.

"Mind your words, don’t say anything inauspicious." Chu Biyao released Ye Fan’s arm and reached for Lu Xiangxiang’s mouth.

"Look, isn’t that the ’Nation’s Goddess’ Chu Biyao?"

"Photos, photos, the National Goddess appears at the airport, surrounded by beauty, accompanied by a man, big news, that’s big news."

"Selling these photos to a reporter would be good income."

"That man is bound to become the National Goddess’s rumored boyfriend." 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

"A scoundrel, to have a connection with the National Goddess."

Taking advantage of the lull in conversation, the surrounding crowd began to stir, pulling out their phones to take pictures. Naturally, all cameras were focused on Chu Mengyao, completely sidelining Chu Biyao, the actual Nation’s Goddess. Luckily, Chu Biyao had disguised herself, or else she’d have been recognized.

Of course, regarding the only man by Mengyao’s side, Ye Fan, everyone hurled insults at him, calling him a scoundrel.

"National Goddess, hello, we’re your fans, could we get an autograph?" Several young men and women flocked to Mengyao, filled with longing.

The surrounding crowd showed signs of excitement, with moves toward Mengyao growing.

"I’m sorry, I’m not the National Goddess you’re referring to; I’m her elder sister, not your idol." Mengyao said coldly.

"So it’s the National Goddess’s twin sister, oh my, they look so alike."

"We’ve often heard how similar they are, but without seeing it with our own eyes, we couldn’t have imagined such likeness."

"She’s cold, totally unlike our idol National Goddess, who is pure and lively, shining brightly, unlike some ice-cold beauty."

"You were the first to rush to the idol’s sister, recognizing wrong, making us all happy for nothing."

"I couldn’t help it; I got excited."

The group gathered around Mengyao, upon realizing her true identity, dispersed disappointedly. They were not infatuated with the Nation’s Goddess’s sister; their idol was Chu Biyao.

The surrounding people, understanding the situation, dropped their intentions to approach.

It’s no wonder they mistook the sisters; many can’t tell them apart. Aside from their close ones, people who haven’t dealt with them really can’t distinguish them.

"You came to see her; I told you not to come, you insisted, causing trouble for us." Lu Xiangxiang accused.

Chu Biyao was flanked by Lu Xiangxiang and Liu Shangxiang, shielded effectively, keeping her identity undisclosed.

"They came for my sister, not for me." Chu Biyao protested.

"It’s still the trouble you raised." Lu Xiangxiang said unhesitantly.

"It’s wrong for me to gain some fame now?" Chu Biyao was frustrated.

"There’s nothing wrong with fame, but appearing publicly with us is indeed wrong." Lu Xiangxiang stated firmly.

"Alright, I was wrong." Chu Biyao dared not argue, urging loudly, "Let’s go, quickly."

The group left the airport.
