Feng City Airport.
A woman in a black coat came down from the plane with a small suitcase.
She was wearing a pair of large sunglasses, and only her perfect, delicate chin and red lips could be seen.
She looked at the people walking around the airport and smiled.
I, Luo Yinan, am back!
She was smiling, but her eyes were cold.
Nine years ago, her mother suddenly passed away, which was followed by the melodrama of a stepmother showing up along with two older stepdaughters.
The funny thing was that these two sisters were also her father's biological children.
It turned out that her parents' loving and harmonious relationship had been a sham. She was forced to accept this fact.
Later, in order to wrest control of her mother's inheritance, her father chased her out of the house when she was just 15 years old, and she left for another country.
This time, she wanted to take back everything that belonged to her and her mother.
The past flashed through her mind. She clenched her fists and her eyes turned dark and still.
At that moment, there was a shrill and clear cry.
"Stop that thief!"
A burly man in black was running off with a lady's bag, and was even holding a knife.
Those who wanted to step forward to help retreated fearfully at the sight of the knife.
Only Luo Yinan remained in that empty space.
The burly man bellowed as he ran, "D*mn woman, get lost."
Luo Yinan lowered her sunglasses with one hand to look at the big man, and her red lips curved up slightly.
Tapping one foot on the ground, she spun and kicked out with one long leg.
Coming to an elegant stop, she adjusted her sunglasses, which were slightly askew. She didn't even glance at the man on the ground.
The person whose bag had been snatched caught up at that moment. Onlookers had already called the police.
In the chaos, Luo Yinan slipped away.
Unexpectedly, someone had already filmed her taking down the thief, and the video was posted online.
That moment when her sunglasses were askew and her beautiful face was revealed was also screencapped by omnipotent netizens and immediately became a trending topic.
But that was for later.
At that moment, Luo Yinan walked out of the airport and breathed in the air of her home country.
There was a light chuckle next to her.
Luo Yinan turned around and saw a man in a white suit slowly walk over.
She looked him up and down. Not just anybody could wear a white suit like this well.
Those long, slanted eyes glowed warmly. The man stared at her intently, as if she was his entire world.
There was a faint smile on Yu Zichen's face as he clapped and said, "That heroic act earlier was splendid."
Luo Yinan took off her sunglasses and smiled lightly. "Don't tell me your next words will be to treat me to a meal?"
Yu Zichen: "May I have the honor?"
Under the man's expectant gaze, Luo Yinan smiled and said, "No."
With that, she stopped smiling and coldly turned to leave.
Yu Zichen sighed helplessly and said, "It's been a few years since we last met, but your personality hasn't changed at all."
Luo Yinan turned around and frowned at him.
Yu Zichen smiled wryly, a hint of grievance in his eyes. "You really don't recognize me?"
Luo Yinan frowned at the face of this stranger before finding a trace of familiarity.
She raised an eyebrow. "Yu Zichen?"
After receiving affirmation, her eyes flashed with astonishment.
"To think that chubby meat bun in the past would turn out like this today."
As she spoke, her eyes flashed with faint regret, as if she was reminiscing about what that bun-like face had felt like in her hands back then.
Yu Zichen smiled wryly and said, "So, do I qualify to treat you to a meal now?"
He extended his hand in a gesture of invitation.
Luo Yinan gave him her hand lightly with a haughty expression. "Let's go."
Yu Zichen's gaze landed on the wrist guard she was wearing, and his eyes flashed with a trace of pity.
Then, he opened the car door for her like a gentleman.
...
That night, Luo Yinan looked at a message on her phone in her hotel room.
It was from her father: 8:30 tonight, Huang Shang Residences. Be there on time.
She coldly tossed her phone onto the bed and scoffed.
She had suddenly been told to return to the country this time; that family probably couldn't take it anymore.
It made sense; she was now 24 years old, and it was time for her mother's will to take effect.
