Chapter 389: The Feeling of Going Home
In a suburb abroad, Liu Yao was packing up her things, getting a bit sweaty from the work. As the influence of the big boss had crumbled, Liu Yao was now free to return home. Upon hearing the news, Liu Yao was overjoyed; at last, she could return to her family, and finally, she could spend every day with her loved ones.
However, the only thing that saddened Liu Yao was the great sacrifice made by the two elders for this to happen. But Yuan Cheng reassured Liu Yao not to worry, as the elders felt much relieved now. They no longer had to carry the burden of stress every day, nor did they have to worry about this and that, preventing them from getting a good night’s sleep.
Liu Yao, now tired from packing, sent a message to Leng Le. She hoped they could meet the moment she got back. But she didn’t receive a reply for a long time, and Leng Le had not been in touch recently, which puzzled Liu Yao, as they had never gone a month without contact before.
Liu Yao felt something must have happened to Leng Le. She sent another message to Yuan Cheng, asking him to check if Leng Le had run into some trouble and, if so, to help her out.
After a brief rest, Liu Yao thoroughly checked her surroundings to ensure she hadn’t left anything behind. Then, taking a deep breath and grabbing her suitcase, she closed the door and set off for home.
Before she left, Liu Yao glanced at the house next door. She never had the chance to properly greet her neighbor or to have a little chat with the high school girl there. In the end, she left without fulfilling any of that.
"Never mind, I guess it was not meant to be." Liu Yao didn’t care too much and hailed a taxi straight to the airport.
In just two hours, Liu Yao arrived at the airport. As soon as she entered, she involuntarily quickened her pace. Her steps became light and joyful; it was as if her heart had already taken off, and she couldn’t wait to go home.
The airport was crowded. Liu Yao saw a familiar figure flash by in the crowd. Liu Yao was taken aback and then started searching for that figure but found no trace of it.
