After the meal, Le Yao prepared to return to the room next door, but Han Xiangdong followed her out.

"Big brother, let's go back, it's just a short walk." Le Yao waved her hand.

"Alan," Han Xiangdong said, pulling Le Yao a little further away, "I have something to ask you."

"Mm." Le Yao nodded.

"You went to the US, is there something else going on?" Han Xiangdong lowered his voice slightly, but his expression was very serious.

"Big brother, you..."

"Answer me," Han Xiangdong frowned. "And don't lie to me."

"Okay." Le Yao sighed, "There is something else going on." She paused for a moment, "I didn't tell my parents because I was afraid they would worry."

Han Xiangdong frowned even more: "Alan, I know there are many things you can't tell us, but you have to remember, we are family. If something happens to you, your parents won't be able to bear it."

"Big brother, don't worry, I'll definitely be fine." Le Yao grabbed Han Xiangdong's arm. "Besides, I'm going with Ajue, you have to trust his abilities."

"Okay." Han Xiangdong nodded. "I trust you."

"Big brother, remember, while I'm gone, don't believe anyone. Even if they say I'm dead, don't believe them unless you see my body, understand?"

"Alan," Han Xiangdong grabbed Le Yao's shoulder, "was it really dangerous?"

"No, I'm just afraid that if I infringe on someone's interests, someone might use you to threaten me, and then I'll be at a disadvantage, do you understand?"

"Okay, I understand." Han Xiangdong sighed. "Don't worry, I'll take good care of Mom and Dad."

The next day, after breakfast, Le Yao went to the airport to meet Qiao Qiao. They had booked tickets to fly to western Jiangxi together that day. Their arrival times were about the same. However, Lu Min'an and Nangong Jue both had work to do and would be there on the wedding day. As long as they could attend the banquet at noon, it would be fine.

To her surprise, she ran into the Duke of Byron as soon as she passed through security and entered the VIP room.

"Miss Han." Byron waved warmly to Le Yao, then walked over and sat down on the sofa next to her. "What a coincidence, where are you headed?"

“Duke Byron, please call me Mrs. Nangong, Madam Nangong, or Young Madam, or you can call me Sister-in-law.” Le Yao raised an eyebrow slightly. “Is it Western etiquette to call a married woman ‘Miss’?”

Byron paused for a moment, then smiled: "Sorry, since you haven't held the ceremony yet, so... how about I call you Alan?"

"No," Le Yao nodded, "Our relationship isn't that good."

"Or do you have an English name?" Byron was persistent; he just didn't want to call her Madam Nangong.

"Tina." Le Yao didn't have an English name. In English class, the teacher usually called her Lan, so she had to think of one on the spot.

“Then I’ll call you Tina.” Byron laughed. “Where are you going?”

"Just taking a walk." Le Yao was too lazy to talk to him anymore, so she started playing on her phone and even started playing a game so as not to be disturbed.

Byron's eyes were somewhat dim and unclear, but he ultimately said nothing more and closed his eyes to pretend to sleep.

A waiter came over and brought Le Yao the coffee and dessert she had ordered.

Le Yao then put down her phone and picked up the cake to eat.

“Looks good.” Byron, who was next to her, also opened his eyes, glanced at Le Yao, and then called over the waiter, ordering the same coffee and dessert.
