329 Departure

Qiao Yue and Qiao Jing boarded a plane to K-Country the next day.

K-Country wasn’t far from C-Country, but it was still an international flight that would take five hours.

As soon as they boarded the plane, Qiao Jing took a neck pillow, blanket, and slippers from his assistant and handed them to Qiao Yue.

“Second brother, they give these out in first class. Why do you have to bring your own?”

Qiao Jing covered Qiao Yue with the blanket, his expression as cold as ice.

“Go to sleep.” Qiao Jing wrapped Qiao Yue up like a dumpling with the blanket, patted her head, and then turned on his computer to work.

“Second brother, your obsession with cleanliness is quite strange.”

Qiao Yue was, in fact, a little sleepy. Although she knew that she had a busy day today, she didn’t go to bed early last night. She was indeed sleepy now.

The sound of Qiao Jing’s typing was hypnotizing. Qiao Yue watched Qiao Jing work and got increasingly sleepy. She slowly closed her eyes and fell asleep.

The typing stopped and the assistant turned around to look at Qiao Jing. “Second young master…”

Before he could finish, he saw Qiao Jing gazing at Qiao Yue with a rare gentleness in his eyes.

And Qiao Yue had wrapped himself up like a cocoon, revealing only his tiny face.

It had to be said that Qiao Yue was indeed very delicate and pretty. He looked so sweet when he was asleep. The assistant sighed in his heart. If only this young master Qiao Yue was a young miss.

The two of them looked like a perfect couple.

Qiao Jing noticed his assistant’s gaze and looked up at him, “What is it?”

In that moment, Qiao Jing’s expression changed and there was a hint of annoyance in his eyes.

Qiao Jing raised his hand and placed a finger on his lips, signaling for his assistant to keep his voice down.

The assistant quickly nodded and said softly, “News came from K-Country just now. The meeting with the Yin family will be postponed, and we will visit the charity project at Hanshan City first.”

Hanshan City was near S-City, but because of some strange magnetic field problem, the children there often suffered from a strange blood disease. The city was very remote, and one had to cross a mountain to get there.

“Okay.” Qiao Jing nodded.

“Relevant arrangements have been made. We’ll go straight to Hanshan when we land.” The assistant was a little hesitant, “Your previous reservations…”

Qiao Jing frowned. He had made reservations at several restaurants and famous amusement parks in S-City he wanted to take Qiao Yue to, but now it seemed that everything had to be postponed.

“Push them back, change the reservations.”

The assistant felt a little pinched. Changing the restaurant reservations would cost a lot of money, enough for a repeat visit.

Seeing the hesitation in his assistant’s eyes, Qiao Jing immediately understood. “I’ll increase the budget. Don’t worry.”

The assistant nodded and turned around to get back to work.

Qiao Jing couldn’t help but reach out and touch Qiao Yue’s hair. This kid must be tired from exam preparations and other things. He didn’t expect to have to travel Hanshan City as soon as they landed in K-Country.

When Qiao Yue woke up, the plane had yet to land.

Qiao Jing, who had finished his work, was taking a nap in his seat.

Qiao Yue stretched her hand out of the blanket and turned on the iPad in front of her seat. It showed that there was still an hour and a half to go before they landed. She yawned lazily.

Qiao Jing, who was seated beside her, seemed to be disturbed by her small action and frowned slightly.

Qiao Jing was still the same as before, such a light sleeper.

Qiao Yue stood up and slowly massage Qiao Jing’s temples.

Qiao Jing didn’t wake up because of her actions but fell into deeper sleep.

Looking at Qiao Jing’s sleeping face, Qiao Yue felt her heartbeat quicken.

She had never acknowledged the fact that their relationship had turned somewhat romantic.

After making sure that Qiao Jing was sound asleep, Qiao Yue touched his face gently, fingers tracing his exquisite facial features.

She had to admit that Qiao Jing was really handsome. He was like a child when asleep, without his usual cold expression.

Qiao Yue felt the urge to kiss him.

She bent over and pressed her lips against Qiao Jing’s face.

The gentle touch and the faint woody scent on Qiao Jing engulfed her.

It was the perfume that Qiao Jing had given her. It had the faint scent of round leaf eucalyptus, and smells of the ocean and the freshly cut grass.

In that instant, Qiao Yue’s heartbeat accelerated. She held her chest and slowly sat down.

Qiao Jing probably didn’t do it on purpose. He probably didn’t know her true gender yet. That must be the case.
