Chapter 255: Interception Midway
"Absence makes the heart grow fonder," they say, especially for the newlyweds Yuan Cheng and Liu Yao who were facing a separation soon after their marriage. Yuan Cheng had stayed for more than ten days, far longer than Leng Le and Hai had expected.
However, no matter how unwilling, Yuan Cheng had to return to his home country. Even though his unique circumstances allowed him to take an extended leave, he was aware of the negative influence his absence might cast among his colleagues.
Liu Yao personally drove Yuan Cheng to the airport. Their male and female bodyguards followed in another car, a precaution insisted upon by Liu Yao so they wouldn’t be disturbed.
When it was time for him to board the plane, it was evident that Liu Yao was reluctant to let him go, this wasn’t the newlywed life she had envisioned. Liu Yao realized she was deeply in love with Yuan Cheng and couldn’t stand being apart from him.
Yuan Cheng felt the same. He held Liu Yao’s hand tightly and gazed at his wife, causing Yuan Cheng to desire to stay more than ever. As the boarding announcements were made, Yuan Cheng gave Liu Yao a gentle kiss on her forehead before parting, reassuring her, "Don’t worry, I’ll sort things out at work and be back with you soon."
"Okay!" Although reluctant to let go, Liu Yao could only comply, waving goodbye as she watched Yuan Cheng board the plane.
Everything was being watched by someone, Yuan Cheng boarding the plane, Liu Yao leaving the airport. Then the swift report of which car Liu Yao was in and the license plate was made.
When Hai and the female supervisor received the information, they were already lying in wait en route to Liu Yao’s home. Before their operation began, Hai made an announcement, "Remember, this time will be different. There won’t be any local law enforcement to cover our tracks. Instead, they’ll be on our tail, so be careful. Retreat immediately to the designated spot after the mission is complete."
"Okay, we understand." Cui Qi and the others also got moving, each getting into three separate cars.
