Bai Yaoyao rolled her eyes at Yun Bixue. “In the past, you’d be the one blushing instead! You’re teasing me now!”
“I’m going to leave now, so let me have some fun. After all, I’m truly happy for you.”
Thinking that Yun Bixue was going to leave, Bai Yaoyao felt sad and couldn’t bear to part.
“Bixue, I really can’t bear to see you go.” Bai Yaoyao had never felt so depressed before. Now that she was married, she would be staying in Country X. She felt as though her close family member was leaving, and she didn’t know how to fully express it.
“We’re still going to see each other in the future. Cheer up.”
“Yes, I know.” Bai Yaoyao reached out and gently embraced Yun Bixue. Despite those words, she understood that they were both busy with their own families and were even residing in different countries. They wouldn’t be able to meet so frequently.
After exchanging a few more words, Xie Limo and Yun Bixue left.
At the airport, Xie Limo suddenly pulled Yun Bixue back and said, “We’re not taking this flight.”
“Why? Didn’t you already buy the tickets?” Yun Bixue stared at the two tickets in Xie Limo’s hands.
Xie Limo chuckled softly and looked afar. After a while, two silhouettes who looked just like them walked towards them. They took the tickets from Xie Limo and boarded the plane silently.
Yun Bixue’s mouth gaped open, then she asked, “Are they boarding the plane on our behalf?”
“Yes, we’ll be taking the private plane that Duan Yanhao had arranged for us. The plane belongs to the military.”
Yun Bixue knew that Xie Limo had considered their safety and made such a decision.
Yun Bixue lowered her voice and asked, “Erm, is she pregnant too?”
“It’s just stuffed with cotton.”
Yun Bixue blinked and wondered if that idea would work. In the end, she came to terms with it.
Afterward, Xie Limo brought Yun Bixue to board the private military plane.
On the flight, Yun Bixue shut her eyes to rest. Some time later, she thought she heard an explosion in the air. The aircraft also seemed to be affected by the blast and experienced some turbulence.
Yun Bixue became wide awake instantly. She pried open her eyes and looked shocked. Grabbing Xie Limo’s sleeve subconsciously, she asked, “Limo, what happened? Was that an explosion?”
Yun Bixue felt uneasy, and her heart raced.
Xie Limo held Yun Bixue’s hands and comforted, “It’s nothing. You must have been dreaming. Go back to sleep!”
Xie Limo knew clearly that the flight they were meant to be on would most probably be shot down. If he hadn’t made prior arrangements, his wife would probably…
Xie Limo didn’t dare to think about it at all. His heart turned solemn as he grabbed Yun Bixue’s hand tightly. Unconsciously, he squeezed her hand too forcefully, causing her to feel pain.
Yun Bixue turned to look at Xie Limo. Observing his expression, she asked, “Limo, did something happen to that plane?”
While she was asking, her face turned pale and numb. Her voice also trembled.
Xie Limo tried to soften the look on his face. Caressing Yun Bixue’s hair, he said, “Don’t let your mind run wild. Everything’s fine.”
Hearing those words, Yun Bixue shook her head. Her face turned completely ashen. “Limo, there must have been a lot of people on that plane, right?” She finally understood why Limo had arranged for someone else to take their seats.
“Xue, don’t overthink. We can only get a hold of the situation after we return.”
