The plane landed at Pingcheng International Airport, precisely at 7 o'clock in the morning.
The sky was gray and hazy, and the entire city seemed still asleep. Looking down through the aircraft window, the leaden ground was soaked by rainwater, deepening its color.
The phone vibrated several times, receiving messages that couldn't be received due to poor onboard Wi-Fi during landing.
「Is it today's flight?」
「Let me know when you're close, I'll have Liang Xian come pick you up.」
「Ming Si, don't be stubborn.」
「Reply to the messages.」
The phone was placed next to the dressing mirror; she could catch a glimpse of the messages that flashed on the screen from the corner of her eye.
At first, the tone was somewhat gentle, but after a few messages, the true colors emerged, revealing a familiar commanding tone.
Asking Liang Xian to come and pick her up... As if anyone could persuade that young master.
After finishing applying the last stroke of lipstick, Ming Si gently smudged it.
She flipped the makeup mirror upside down on the table and kicked off the slippers provided on the plane. She put on high heels before picking up her phone:「No need, the airport will provide transportation.」
Having said that, she didn't care about the other party's reaction and walked out on her own.
Not many people knew she was returning to the country, and at this moment, her WeChat was still calm. Ming Si casually browsed through it, then tossed the phone back into her bag.
First-class passengers didn't need to wait for their luggage. Outside the airport hall, a black Mercedes-Benz S-Class was already waiting in place.
Instead of going home, Ming Si went straight to her villa in the city center.
The housekeeper was caught off guard by her arrival and subtly inquired a few times Does Madam knows about this? Ming Si didn't bother to respond, kicked off her high heels, and went upstairs to take a nap.
She couldn't get a good sleep, and her dreams were intermittent.
The ragdoll cat she had raised for a few years no longer recognized her and treated her as a stranger. As soon as she entered the room, the cat hid far away in the corner of the white cabinet, secretly observing.
"Don't recognize me?" Ming Si lifted the quilt and sat up, walking barefoot to the sofa chair by the window.
The ragdoll cat blinked its beautiful blue eyes.
After a long while, it quietly slipped down, its tail raised, and slowly approached.
Ming Si bent down and held it in her arms, touching it absentmindedly, gazing at the distant sky outside the French window.
Just then, a message from Lin Xijia came on WeChat —
「Still not up, slept the whole day?」
Ming Si picked up her phone and checked the chat history. Lin Xijia had asked her if she wanted to go to the newly opened MMA club in the morning. She had just come back, took a bath, and fell asleep without bothering to check.
She replied:「Just woke up, let me adjust to the time difference first.」
Closing the chat box, she glanced at the day's accumulated WeChat messages and replied to a few of them.
