"Mom, that Aunt Chu is still the same, hasn't changed a bit. The bracelet she gave me must be fake. Why don't you call her out on it? Every time she comes over, it's just to show off how well she's doing," Jiang Lu complained vehemently.
"We've known her for so many years; I understand her personality. She's a bit vain, but she's not a bad person. We should be more tolerant. Xiao Chen, when you go to Dao City with Aunt Chu tomorrow, keep a low profile. Just listen to what she says and don't take it to heart," Zhou Rongli advised.
"I know, Mom," Jiang Chen replied with a smile, knowing it wasn't worth arguing with a woman like that.
In the afternoon, Jiang Lu's family took Jiang Chen to Qishan Park in their county. Standing on the peak of Qishan Mountain, they could see the mighty Yangtze River flowing below. Although it was a small county, it had its own charm.
The next day, Jiang Chen set off for Dao City. His father drove him, along with Chu Mei and her daughter Wang Duoduo, to Liu Fei City Airport.
Jiang Chen was going to Dao City to watch the Martial Arts Competition and had brought Lin Yin along. Lin Yin was excited to participate in the competition and had flown to Dao City the day before to help arrange hotel accommodations for her master.
While picking up tickets at the airport, Chu Mei glanced at Jiang Chen's ticket and was surprised to see he was also in business class.
"You’re on a business trip and can sit in business class?" Chu Mei asked in astonishment.
"Of course," Jiang Chen replied casually as he tucked away his boarding pass and headed toward security, not wanting to waste any more words on Chu Mei.
Chu Mei and her daughter quickly got their boarding passes and went through security as well.
After resting in the lounge for a while, it was time for Jiang Chen's flight to board.
In domestic flights, there are usually only business class and economy class. Business class is just slightly more expensive than economy class, with seats that are a bit more spacious; other than that, there isn't much difference—certainly not the privacy of first class on international flights.
Chu Mei and Wang Duoduo were also in business class, which made Jiang Chen relieved that their seats were not together. Finally having some peace during the flight, he took out his phone and put on his headphones to listen to music by Ma'erka.
To be honest, Ma'erka had a nice voice and was quite talented.
After more than an hour, the plane landed at Dao City Airport.
"Jiang Chen, your Uncle Wang's driver is here to pick us up. You don't need to stay at a hotel; just come stay at our house," Chu Mei said enthusiastically as she caught up with him.
"Mom," Wang Duoduo immediately protested upon hearing her mother suggest that Jiang Chen stay at their home.
"No thanks, I've already booked a hotel," Jiang Chen said with a slight smile, appearing like an innocent boy next door.
"That's fine; I'll have the driver take you to the hotel then," Chu Mei said without insisting further.
"I have someone picking me up; there's no need for trouble," Jiang Chen smiled back.
"You have friends in Dao City?" Chu Mei asked in surprise. She felt that Jiang Chen was different now; when she first met him yesterday, she thought he was just an unremarkable person, but today he was flying in business class.
"They're coming with me to watch the Martial Arts Competition," Jiang Chen explained casually.
"Oh, since they're not from Dao City, there's no need for a taxi. Just call your friend over; I'll drive you both. Don't be polite with Auntie; it's settled," Chu Mei insisted.
Jiang Chen smiled gently and said nothing more.
At the airport exit, many people were waiting for their friends and family, but one girl stood out among the crowd. With her exquisite features, she wore denim shorts that accentuated her long, shapely legs, paired with a pair of Gucci sneakers. Her long hair was styled in playful twin ponytails, giving her a cute and mischievous appearance.
