After Xia Xingcheng and Yang Youming got in the car, Chen Hailan stood next to the car door and said, “I’ll take Xueyue down the mountain when she gets up.”

Yang Youming nodded.

Chen Hailan looked at Xia Xingcheng once more and called out, “Xingcheng.”

Xia Xingcheng looked towards him, waiting for his next words.

With a smile on his face, Chen Hailan hesitated for a moment before saying, “I’m looking forward to your new work.”

Xia Xingcheng answered, “Thank you, Lan ge.”

Afterwards, Chen Hailan hugged Yang Youming again and said, “Let’s get together again when we return.”

Ren Yuchang stood outside the car and waved to them with a smile, “Be careful on the road.”

Ling Jiayue was next to him, seeming somewhat gloomy. At this time, she came to her senses and said, “Ming ge, take care. Xing ge, take care.”

Then, Chen Hailan helped them close the car door and shouted through the window, “Hurry up, don’t miss your flight.”

The car set off, slowly driving out of the courtyard and down the mountain, back the way it came.

Xia Xingcheng turned around to look in the distance, then looked to Yang Youming, “Ming ge—Lan ge, he…”

Yang Youming placed his hand on the back of Xia Xingcheng’s hand and gave it a light pat, looking ahead, and said, “It’s nothing, don’t worry about it.”

Since Yang Youming had said not to worry, Xia Xingcheng nodded and no longer thought about Chen Hailan.

However, as the car drove down the mountain path, Xia Xingcheng felt that it was going too fast. It would take at most an hour to reach the airport, and soon, he and Yang Youming would separate.

He was very reluctant to part with him. The man was obviously right next to him, and that strong longing was driving him crazy. He wanted nothing more than to hug Yang Youming, kiss him, touch him—but the driver was still in the car, so he couldn’t do anything.

Only where the driver couldn’t see, he clasped Yang Youming’s hand tightly.

Yang Youming was gently rubbing the crook of Xia Xingcheng’s hand with his fingertips, then he lowered his head and traced the fine lines of his palm.

Xia Xingcheng said, “When I was small, my mom took me to a palm reading, and the master said I would have a rocky love life.”

Yang Youming asked, “How rocky?

“Isn’t it still rocky?” Xia Xingcheng leaned close to his ear and said in a voice only the two of them could hear, “I worked so hard to chase you!”

Yang Youming laughed, then immediately reined in his smile and said solemnly, “Maybe before you were 24, it was a little rocky, but after this, it’ll be smooth.”

Xia Xingcheng looked at Yang Youming, eyes radiant, “You promise?”

Yang Youming spread his palms even more, gazing intently for a moment and said, “You can do whatever you want, love whoever you want, and live the life that you want to live, I promise.”

Xia Xingcheng crooked his fingers and held Yang Youming’s hand tightly. Yet in the end, after a while, he still had difficulty keeping his emotions under control. He shot a glance at the driver in the front row who was focused on the road, then quietly bent down and pressed close to Yang Youming’s hand, kissing his fingertips, then pillowed his head on Yang Youming’s leg.

Yang Youming stroked Xia Xingcheng’s hair with his other hand.

It’s a pity that this furtive tenderness didn’t last long before the car left the mountain road and stopped at a remote roadside before entering the highway.

At this time, a black nanny car was already parked at the side of the road. As soon as they neared the car, the door was pulled open. Huang Jixin wore a pair of sunglasses, and the lower part of his face that wasn’t covered by the glasses appeared very unhappy.

Behind him, Li Yun got out of the car, carrying a suitcase in her hand.

The driver opened the door and got out of the car and went to help Li Yun with the suitcase.

Xia Xingcheng raced against time and kissed Yang Youming’s lips heavily, making every second count. Just as they parted, Huang Jixin pulled open the car door menacingly. He didn’t even bother being polite with Yang Youming, and he didn’t remove his sunglasses as he shouted at Xia Xingcheng, “Change cars.”

They couldn’t let two people go to the airport in the same car, worried that they would be seen by the media or even fans.

Xia Xingcheng shot a look at Huang Jixin.

Yang Youming, however, didn’t seem worried. He helped Xia Xingcheng put his scarf on and hooked a mask around his ears, saying, “I’ll message you when I get back.”

Xia Xingcheng crossed Yang Youming to get off the car, yet right as he stepped on the car door pedal, he abruptly turned back and tore off his mask, tackling Yang Youming and fervently kissing him.

Huang Jixin was completely shocked. He reached for Xia Xingcheng’s arm, pulling him back and separating them.

Panting, Xia Xingcheng put his mask back on, and said to Yang Youming, “I’m going.”

With that, he turned around and jumped out of the car, and quickly got on the car in front without looking back.

Huang Jixin was still a little shocked. Along with an unsuppressed fury, he took off his sunglasses and nodded at Yang Youming, “Ming ge.”

Yang Youming still acted very naturally, “Hello.”

Huang Jixin said, “I called Chief Cai and told her about the situation over here. When it’s convenient for you, she’d like to invite you to a meal.”

Yang Youming nodded, “I’ll be back in two days, Chief Cai can arrange it.”

Huang Jixin replied, “Then I won’t bother you, we’ll leave first.”

At this time, the driver had already helped Li Yun move all of Yang Youming’s luggage to their car.

As soon as Huang Jixin got into the car and sat next to Xia Xingcheng, he said to the driver, “Drive.”

Although they were in a remote location, there was always a car passing by from time to time. Huang Jixin was extremely anxious, but he couldn’t vent his anger on Yang Youming and could only glare at Xia Xingcheng.

But Xia Xingcheng didn’t pay attention to him at all. From the time he got into the car until now, he hadn’t even taken off his mask, and he sat quietly, expression blank. After a while, his eyes curved and smiled uncontrollable, but immediately after, he lowered his eyes, looking a little lost.

“That’s enough!” Huang Jixin was practically at the end of his patience.

Xia Xingcheng was about to ask what was enough, but he didn’t want to enrage Huang Jixin even more, so he sat in silence and kept his mouth shut.

Huang Jixin lit a cigarette, and soon the whole car was filled with smoke. He opened the window a crack and said, “Chief Cai wants to see when you get back to the company.”

Xia Xingcheng already knew what it was for, so he nodded and replied, “Okay.”

Huang Jixin smoked sullenly, and no longer spoke to Xia Xingcheng.

There were no fans at the airport to see them off and no fans to meet them when they returned. It was a last minute change of schedule, so they didn’t inform the back-up. They only ran into two or three young girls at the airport asking for autographs, and Xia Xingcheng was very friendly as he signed for them.

Yang Youming’s flight was a little later, and they didn’t meet at the airport.
