Chapter: 3043
Charlie Wade and Chen Duoduo unexpectedly bumped into each other. Chen Duoduo looked surprised, so Charlie coughed and said, “Ahem, hello, Miss Chen.”
Chen Duoduo quickly snapped back to reality. Realizing he had been staring at Charlie Wade’s handsome face for too long, he felt embarrassed and nervously asked, “Oh, you… Why are you here…?”
“I’m here to pick up my daughter,” Charlie Wade replied, noticing her panic. He joked, “What are you so scared of? I won’t bite!”
Chen Duoduo touched her chest to calm down and replied loudly, “You won’t bite me, but I’m worried that if I say something wrong, the tigress at home will eat me!”
Just then, Gu Qiuyi overheard and asked, “Duo Duo, who are you talking to? Who’s the tigress? Is it really Xian Bian?”
She rushed out and, upon seeing Charlie Wade, her eyes brightened. “Brother Charlie Wade, why didn’t you tell me you were coming?”
Without waiting for an answer, she turned to Chen Duoduo and said, “Oh, Duoduo, hurry up! Don’t keep me waiting. Be safe on the road!”
Then she grabbed Charlie Wade’s arm and pulled him into the room. “Brother Charlie Wade, come in and sit for a bit while I put on some quick makeup, and then we can go!”
As the door closed behind them, Chen Duoduo sighed and muttered, “She prefers pretty faces over friends! Absolutely prefers pretty faces over friends!”
With that, she grabbed her suitcase and left.
Inside, Gu Qiuyi pulled Charlie Wade into the room and pressed…
Charlie Wade helped Gu Qiuyi onto the sofa and said, “Just wait a few more minutes, and I’ll be ready.” After that, he rushed into the bathroom.
While he waited, Charlie took out his phone and called Chen Zekai to ensure the team was prepared. Once he confirmed everything was set, he waited for Gu Qiuyi to finish getting ready, and then they left the room together.
Just like the day before, Chen Zekai arranged for them to access the airport easily. Several cars drove directly into the airport hangar to wait for Gu Yanzhong and Lin Wanqiu’s plane to arrive.
At 10:40, a modified Boeing 737, designed as a private business jet, landed at Jinling Airport. Originally, this plane could hold nearly 200 passengers, but it had been transformed into a luxurious jet capable of flying anywhere in the world.
As the plane rolled slowly into the hangar, Charlie spotted the porthole, where he saw Gu Yanzhong and Lin Wanqiu. Due to the plane’s size, airport staff used a passenger elevator to help the couple disembark.
Gu Qiuyi was in a cheerful mood. She waved and called out, “Dad, Mom!” Gu Yanzhong and Lin Wanqiu stepped off the elevator hand in hand.
After being apart for many days, Charlie noticed that Gu Yanzhong looked great. He stood tall and appeared to be in his early forties. This youthful appearance was thanks to rejuvenation pills.
Next to him, Lin Wanqiu seemed a bit tired in comparison. Although she was almost fifty, her excellent care made her look like she was in her forties. Standing beside Gu Qiuyi, she looked youthful and vibrant.
They looked more like sisters than a mother and daughter. However, Lin Wanqiu’s overall condition was much worse than that of Gu Yanzhong, who was a few years older. She appeared a bit unwell.
Charlie Wade suddenly remembered what Gu Qiuyi had told him. Lin Wanqiu had been taking care of Gu Yanzhong lately, and it seemed that the hard work had taken a toll on her health and energy.
