Was he really going to give her her real ID and passport?
After all this time, was he finally going to give it to her?
For a moment, Ye Ning reached out to take her belongings, but as her hand moved, memories of the past tumbled through her mind, along with the image of this man’s eyes quietly observing her. Her intention firmly suppressed, she withdrew her hand.
"Better not, my current identity still can’t be exposed, and it might be dangerous to keep these with me. You hold on to them for me."
As expected, just by saying that, she saw a glimmer of relief in his eyes. Without hesitation, he stuffed her documents and the plane ticket back into his briefcase.
Ye Ning saw this, her gaze fell slightly, and she said nothing more, continuing with her meal.
Perhaps because she had still entrusted him with her documents, the topics they discussed thereafter were inconsequential. When they finished eating, Ye Ning went straight upstairs.
"Mom, are you really going to Japan? You just got out of the hospital, won’t it be too much to travel so far?"
Upon reaching upstairs, as expected, the little one who hadn’t slept yet immediately asked with concern.
Ye Ning sat down and pulled the chubby Little Tuanzi into her arms, "No, Uncle Lin will be there, he’ll take care of Mommy."
"But he didn’t even ask you and just decided you should go to Japan. Aren’t you angry, Mom?"
Ye Ning looked at her nails done just that afternoon and after a long pause, a hint of helplessness finally flickered at the corner of her eyes, "Ye Xiaobao, remember, Uncle Lin does everything for our sake. He takes care of you and Mommy, and that is our blessing, understand?"
Ye Xiaobao nodded, only half understanding, "Oh!"
What exactly is a blessing?
Ye Xiaobao still didn’t quite understand...
Because of the 8 a.m. flight, the next morning Ye Ning got up at six. After a quick wash, she got into Lin Yebai’s car, and they were driven to the airport by Xiaojin.
"Sir, last night there was a call from Japan, asking whether we will be staying in Osaka or Tokyo?"
Osaka and Tokyo aren’t too far apart, just over five hundred kilometers. Osaka is much quieter than Tokyo, and the scenery is also more beautiful.
Lin Yebai flipped through a list in his hands upon hearing this, "Are the organizers covering everything this time?"
"Yes, it’s all-inclusive for exhibitors and jurors. However, it seems that in Osaka they’ve arranged accommodations for more important guests, reportedly all high-end villas near hot springs, while in Tokyo, it’s just hotels."
Lin Yebai looked at the list of exhibitors faxed from Japan last night and scanned through it until his eyes suddenly stopped on one name.
Yuzhirun actually qualified to attend such an international jewelry conference?
His pupils narrowed instantly, and his fingers gripping the list began to turn white.
Xiaojin, still unaware of this, after handing over the list and seeing that his boss hadn’t said a word, asked again, "So sir, where will we stay? In Osaka?"
