Capítulo 154: Shadows of the Past

The hum of the private jet's engines was a comforting, rhythmic sound as it carried Feng Ruoxi and Jiang Yukang back to Kyoto. Their trip to Beijing had been a quiet escape from the pressures of their lives, a rare moment where they could simply be together without the weight of expectations, family politics, or Ruoxi's secret mission looming over them. Now, as the city came into view through the large windows of the jet, Ruoxi couldn't help but feel a sense of serenity.

She glanced at Jiang Yukang, who sat beside her, his gaze fixed on the clouds outside. They hadn't spoken much during the flight, but the silence was a comfortable one—an understanding that didn't need to be filled with words. After the deep connection they had shared during their time in Beijing, their relationship felt stronger, more natural. Ruoxi allowed herself a small, contented smile.
