After returning to her room, Lu Er immediately started booking tickets, afraid that if she was even a second late, she would miss Song Jingmo.

After confirming that we had booked the same flight, I calculated the time and realized that I had to leave for the airport no later than 7:00 AM.

Before going to bed, I set the alarm clock.

After thinking about it, she was still a little worried about her habit of sleeping in late, so she sent Song Jingmo a WeChat message and told him her room number.

[Lu Er: If I don't show up on time, you absolutely have to come knocking on the door and bang it open to wake me up. [kneeling in gratitude jpg]]

After sending the message, I stared at the screen, feeling a little expectant yet also a little embarrassed.

Song Jingmo's reply was swift and concise: 【Okay.】

The next day, the shrill sound of the alarm clock ripped through the morning's tranquility right on time.

Lu Er groggily reached out and pressed the button, then turned over and continued sleeping.

The second alarm rang. I struggled to open my eyes halfway, glanced at the time, and then reluctantly closed them again.

He didn't let out a painful groan until the third alarm rang.

She sat up with her hair all messy, her eyes still a little drowsy.

Just then, the cell phone next to my pillow rang.

After reaching for his phone, he answered it. Song Jingmo's cool and steady voice came from the other end: "I'm at your door."

Lu Er jolted awake, instantly becoming mostly conscious. She quickly jumped out of bed, her bare feet touching the cold floor as she went to open the door.

Outside the door, Song Jingmo was dressed in a simple black suit with a white shirt and black trousers, which made him look tall, neat and tidy.

This contrasts sharply with Lu Er's disheveled hair and sleepy appearance.

"Please have a seat, I'll be right there!"

Song Jingmo's gaze fell on the person's bare feet, his eyes darkening: "Why aren't you wearing shoes?"

The feet in front of me are beautiful, with round and cute toes, and neatly trimmed nails with a faint pink hue.

Her ankles are slender, and they seem to fit easily in the palm of your hand.

The arch of the foot resembles a crescent moon, its graceful curve seemingly carrying endless poetic beauty.

Lu Er was so frightened that her toes curled up until Song Jingmo placed the shoes in front of her.

After quickly putting it on, she rushed into the bathroom.

Song Jingmo's gaze swept over the clothes that were carelessly tossed on the sofa and the slightly messy suitcase.

Instead of sitting down, he walked to the wardrobe and looked at the clothes hanging inside.

He asked Lu Er, who was brushing her teeth in the bathroom, "Which outfit do you want to wear?"

With her mouth full of foam, Lu Er mumbled a reply, "Whatever, take whatever you want."

Song Jingmo took off a white casual suit and matching trousers and placed them on the bed.

Then, quite naturally, I carefully folded each of the clothes that I hadn't had time to pack on the sofa and in the closet, and neatly put them into my suitcase.

After washing up, Lu Er splashed cold water on her face and finally woke up completely.

Stepping out of the bathroom, I saw the already packed suitcase and the white clothes on the bed, and a subtle warmth welled up inside me.

After Lu Er finished packing, Song Jingmo naturally pulled the suitcase over: "Let's go, my mom is already waiting downstairs."

Downstairs, Qu Suiwan's car was indeed waiting.

Seeing the two of them come out together, he smiled gently and handed them the prepared paper bags: "Eat these on the way, don't go hungry."

As she spoke, she looked at Lu Er and said, "Er Er, when you get back to China, try to go out with Mo Mo more often. He's a quiet person and always stays by himself. I'm worried he'll get bored."

Lu Er accepted the breakfast, feeling the trust and entrustment in Qu Suiwan's words. She felt a little uneasy, yet also a little sweet.

He solemnly promised, "Aunt Qu, don't worry, I will definitely spend more time playing with him."

After saying that, she secretly glanced at Song Jingmo next to her.

The other person was quietly drinking soy milk, with no expression, but didn't seem to object.

Upon arriving at the airport, the two checked in, but unexpectedly ran into Yan Huaijin and Gu Jinzhou, who were also preparing to return to China, while going through security.

Yan Huaijin greeted him with a smile: "I heard you're returning to China today. I didn't expect to be on the same flight as you."

Lu Er was somewhat surprised: "Weren't you going to see an art exhibition?"

"Going to an exhibition alone isn't very interesting," Yan Huaijin said gently. "Why are you alone? Where are Manager Jiang and Assistant Bai?"

Yan Huaijin and Gu Jinzhou were both accompanied by assistants and agents, making their entourage significantly larger than Lu Er's.

Lu Er explained, "They wanted to stay in Poland for a couple more days, so I gave them time off and went back first."

Gu Jinzhou chuckled, his tone sarcastic: "Lu Dingliu is really generous; his assistant doesn't act like an assistant, but rather like someone on vacation."

Yan Huaijin frowned slightly, his tone filled with concern: "Jinzhou's words make sense."

"It's best to keep someone by your side as much as possible, so that someone can handle any emergencies in time."

Lu Er smiled and subconsciously leaned closer to Song Jingmo, her tone full of trust: "I'll go back with Brother Jingmo, there won't be any problems, Teacher Yan, don't worry."

Jingmo Ge?

Yan Huaijin's eyes darkened, and he looked Song Jingmo over again.

Then, it was time to board.

Lu Er's seat happened to be next to Gu Jinzhou's, while Song Jingmo's seat was next to Yan Huaijin's.

Yan Huaijin glanced at Gu Jinzhou and politely said, "Would it be convenient for us to change seats? Lu Er and I have some things to discuss."

Gu Jinzhou raised an eyebrow, about to agree.

Song Jingmo suddenly spoke up, his voice not loud, but clearly reaching their ears: "Mr. Gu, would you please switch with me?"

Without giving any reason, the tone was flat yet carried an unquestionable air.

For a moment, the atmosphere became somewhat awkward.

Yan Huaijin and Song Jingmo's eyes met briefly in the air, neither of them backing down.

Compared to Yan Huaijin's gentle and refined demeanor, Song Jingmo appeared quite cold and aloof.

Gu Jinzhou watched this scene with a hint of excitement in his eyes, as if he were watching a good show.

Deliberately throwing the problem at Lu Er, she said in a tone that was, "Oh, this is difficult! Lu Er, who do you want to sit with? I'll be a good guy today and help you out."

Instantly, all eyes were focused on Lu Er.

Yan Huaijin's eyes were gentle and expectant.

Although Song Jingmo didn't look at him, the lines of his profile were tense, and he exuded a low-pressure aura.

Gu Jinzhou, on the other hand, had a mischievous look on his face, waiting to see a good show.

Lu Er felt a chill run down her spine; this was practically a death sentence.

She glanced quickly at the expressionless Song Jingmo, then at the gentle and refined Yan Huaijin, her heart pounding.

Almost without a pause, Lu Er reached out and gently tugged at Song Jingmo's sleeve: "I'll sit with Brother Jingmo."

As soon as she finished speaking, Lu Er felt the invisible low pressure around her dissipate considerably.

Song Jingmo exchanged seats with Gu Jinzhou, who looked completely understanding, without much expression.

Yan Huaijin's smile froze slightly for a moment, but he quickly returned to normal.

He nodded gently to Lu Er without saying anything more.

Lu Er didn't dare to look at Yan Huaijin's eyes, which dimmed instantly. She lowered her head and followed Song Jingmo step by step, like a little animal that had found its master.

As Gu Jinzhou stood up, he winked at Lu Er, "You don't even want a handsome guy like the movie star, tsk tsk..."

Lu Er's cheeks flushed slightly, and it wasn't until Song Jingmo's familiar, cool breath gently enveloped her that her heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally settled down.
