The plane flew smoothly.

The cabin was filled with a cacophony of sounds, reflecting the atmosphere of someone who had survived a disaster.

There were excited shouts, emotional cries, and joyful cheers.

Overwhelmed with excitement, the flight attendant began to reassure the passengers.

In the quiet atmosphere of business class, Zhuang Wen and Lu Ruxue embraced and kissed passionately, forgetting everything else and seeing only each other.

"Sir, Madam, are you alright?"

Outside the curtain, the gentle voice of a mature flight attendant rang out, startling the two people embracing each other.

The two hurriedly separated.

Lu Ruxue's face was flushed and burning hot. She lowered her head deeply, her eyes were like water, her slightly swollen lips were tightly pursed, her two long legs were curled up together, and her small hands were also tightly clenched together, she was extremely shy.

Zhuang Wen's face flushed slightly, he licked his lips, and his eyes were intense.

Seeing Lu Ruxue's shy appearance, he felt a surge of heat in his heart, and he wanted Lu Ruxue to help him put out the fire.

"Sir, Madam, if you don't answer me, I'm going inside?"

But the flight attendant's gentle voice rang out again from outside the curtain, making him a little impatient. He said, "We're fine."

"Okay, sir, I'll be going now. Please call me if you need anything."

The flight attendant's voice rang out, clearly indicating a sigh of relief.

Then, the sound of the flight attendant's footsteps in high heels gradually faded away.

Zhuang Wen turned around and looked at Lu Ruxue, who was blushing and bowing her head with burning eyes.

For some reason, when he thought that the shy woman in front of him was a cold and aloof female CEO, and his wife with whom he had registered their marriage, the flames burning in his heart burned even more intensely.

Although Lu Ruxue did not look directly at Zhuang Wen, she seemed to feel the heat in his eyes. Her face immediately burned, and her body trembled slightly.

Zhuang Wen licked his lips, then reached out and put his arm around Lu Ruxue's fragrant shoulder, wanting to savor her beauty once more.

Lu Ruxue was too shy to look up. Even when Zhuang Wen's large hand landed on her shoulder, her cheeks only turned redder and her body stiffened with tension.

"Come sit here."

He opened his mouth and let out a hoarse call.

Lu Ruxue's messy hair covered half of her stunning face, revealing only a hint of blush at her ear. She remained motionless upon hearing this.

Zhuang Wen thought to himself, "If you won't come to me, I'll go to you."

He prepared to get up and approach Lu Ruxue.

But then he suddenly heard Lu Ruxue's voice, barely audible, as faint as a mosquito's buzz: "No."

The voice was very soft, like a soft hum, and even more like a coquettish plea.

But to Zhuang Wen, it was like a thunderclap from a clear sky, directly shattering the evil fire in his heart.

"I'm sorry."

Zhuang Wen's eyes cleared, he sat back down, and spoke apologetically.

He wanted to slap himself in the face.

Zhuang Wen, you're such a bastard! How could you do something like this?!

You and Lu Ruxue are not a real couple at all. The marriage certificate was agreed upon in advance. How can you still take it seriously?!

Zhuang Wen gritted his teeth, and when he caught a glimpse of Lu Ruxue, whose head was bowed deeply, a deep sense of guilt flashed across his face.

Snap!

He reached out and slapped himself.

However, this sound did not elicit any reaction from Lu Ruxue.

She kept her head down, her long, black hair falling down and obscuring her face, making it impossible to see her expression.

Zhuang Wen sighed heavily in his heart. He wanted to apologize, but when he saw Lu Ruxue's indifferent face, the words he wanted to say seemed so pale.

He simply didn't utter a sound.

He even closed his eyes, trying to avoid seeing it and getting annoyed.

At this point, the entire business class cabin fell silent.

Lu Ruxue would occasionally glance up at Zhuang Wen and find him leaning back expressionlessly, motionless, as if he were fast asleep.

She lightly bit her red lips with her pearly teeth, a hint of struggle and hesitation flashing in her eyes.

On several occasions, she tremblingly reached out her slender hand, wanting to touch Zhuang Wen, but she gave up halfway, freezing in mid-air before pulling it back.

After doing this several times, her cheeks flushed slightly, and she finally made up her mind to reach out and touch Zhuang Wen's cheek.

But then, the flight attendant's pleasant voice came over the loudspeaker: "Ladies and gentlemen: The plane is descending. Please return to your seats, fasten your seatbelts, stow your seatbacks, and adjust your seatbacks to the normal position..."

As if startled, Lu Ruxue quickly withdrew her hand, closed her eyes, and tried to calm herself down by regulating her rapid breathing.

At that moment, Zhuang Wen also opened his eyes.

He dared not look directly at Lu Ruxue, only glancing at her out of the corner of his eye as she pretended to be asleep, a hint of disappointment flashing in his pupils.

He adjusted his emotions, making his face appear calm and expressionless.

...

When the plane lands.

The mature and voluptuous flight attendant drew back the curtain, looked at Zhuang Wen and Lu Ruxue with a smile, and said softly, "Sir, Madam, we have arrived in Jianing City."

"Okay, thanks for reminding me."

Zhuang Wen smiled and nodded.

Lu Ruxue reverted to her aloof and cold CEO demeanor, her expression clear and icy, her eyes calm and focused, never glancing to the side.

Amid the gazes of numerous flight attendants, the two disembarked first and then took a special car to a designated welcoming area.

During this process, the two did not speak or even utter a word, acting like complete strangers.

Both Lu Ruxue and Zhuang Wen looked out the window, refusing to look at each other, and their faces were cold, as if they were sulking.

Before long, Dong Qiang and the others arrived from behind.

"Mr. Lu, the people from the Jianing City branch will come to pick us up."

Dong Qiang knew more than Zhuang Wen, and immediately told Lu Ruxue about it.

"Um."

Lu Ruxue nodded slightly.

The group waited outside the airport.

Dong Qiang took out his phone and made a call.

Before long, several minivans stopped one after another.

"Mr. Lu, I'm sorry, I couldn't find you earlier..."

A middle-aged man stepped out of the black van at the head of the group. He was thin, dressed in a black suit, and had a capable demeanor.

"fine."

Lu Ruxue shook her head slightly.

"Please get in the car."

The middle-aged man wiped the cold sweat from his face, then bowed slightly to let Lu Ruxue get into the car.

Lu Ruxue nodded slightly and got into the car.

Zhuang Wen thought for a moment, then followed Lu Ruxue into the car.

The middle-aged man hurriedly stopped Zhuang Wen, frowning at him, and said, "What are you doing? Get in the back car and sit down. I don't know who's older or younger..."

"Old He!"

At this moment, Dong Qiang's expression changed slightly. He stepped forward, stopped the middle-aged man, and said to him, "This is Secretary Zhuang Wen, the secretary of General Manager Lu."

"Secretary Lu is not Zhang..."

The middle-aged man's expression changed, and he hurriedly turned to Zhuang Wen to apologize: "I'm sorry, Secretary Zhuang, I...I didn't know..."

"fine."

Zhuang Wen smiled and shook his head.

"Secretary Zhuang, please get in the car."

The middle-aged man reached out his hand to him.

The two shook hands.

Zhuang Wen then stepped into the car.
