At two in the afternoon, Beijing International Airport was bustling, filled with the constant hum of a restless crowd. Near the arrivals gate, one particular figure drew countless gazes.
Lu Xiuyun was dressed in a crisp, expertly tailored suit; the pure black fabric accentuated his tall, slender frame. The slight upturn of his lips hinted at his excellent mood. That faint, elusive curve was like a gentle spring breeze, carrying a wisp of charm that easily stirred the hearts of those who saw him. He held a bouquet of fresh red roses, the passionate color contrasting sharply with the cold, detached aura he exuded, creating a striking and intriguing visual impact. He stood there quietly, completely oblivious to the attention he was receiving—or perhaps, simply long accustomed to it.
Lin Qing carefully supported Su Li as the two limped out from the arrivals channel. Su Li spotted Lu Xiuyun in the bustling crowd immediately. True to form, he was as flashy as ever; standing there as if he had his own personal spotlight, he effortlessly became the focus of everyone’s attention. Su Li had called him in advance because her schedule was tight and Lu Xiuyun was always busy—overseas trips were a regular occurrence for him—so she had to set a time with him. Otherwise, she would just be wasting her time if she showed up and he wasn’t there.
