1874 Intentions for Going to the Airport

Meng Jue realized he had reacted too strongly, so he cleared his throat and quickly explained, “What I meant was if the package hasn’t gotten loaded onto the plane yet, I can try to stop it from leaving.”

To a world-class hacker, as long as there was an internet connection, there was a lot he could accomplish.

Of course, he needed good fortune as well. Otherwise, the cops might invite him over for a cup of tea.

Meng Jue added. “Just one look.”

His voice sounded meek and pitiful making it hard to turn down his request.

Even though Huo Yao could not empathize with Meng Jue, she paused briefly and said, “Hang on. Let me ask.”

The moment Meng Jue heard what she said, he promptly said, “Okay. Good.”

After hanging up the phone, Huo Yao turned to call Zhuo Yun who was in charge of the shipment.

When she got the answers, she called Meng Jue and got him to go straight to the airport.

Huo Yao put away her phone and looked out the car window again. She contemplated briefly and turned to Min Yu. “After we are done here, give me back the piece of white jade that Grandma gave me.”

Judging from Aunt Tong’s reaction after seeing the black jade, Mirage Base’s secret project seemed to have something to do with both pieces of jade.

She needed to make a trip back to the clan.

Min Yu raised his head and glanced into the rearview mirror calmly. “Okay.”

Huo Yao acknowledged him and dropped the subject.

30 minutes later, they arrived at the airport.

Prof Min and the archaeological team had just arrived at the airport as well. They were at the main hall and had yet to go through the security checks.

Not a lot of people were inside the hall. Huo Yao glanced over and promptly saw them.

The team consisted of several Asian faces, so they could be spotted right away.

Prof Min had already received his son’s text message. Initially, he was a little puzzled. After all, his son had a cold temperament, so it was impossible for Min Yu to offer to see him off at the airport.

The moment he saw Huo Yao, he realized why his son would show up here.

Prof Min scolded his son in disdain inwardly. When Huo Yao got closer, he was all smiles.

Huo Yao was dressed in casuals. She was an incredible beauty and had the aura of someone from a good family. She nodded and greeted politely, “Hi, Uncle Min.”

“Hi. Thanks for sending me off.” Prof Min waved his hand speaking in a genial tone.

Min Yu raised his brow. “Do I look invisible to you?”

Prof Min thought about the way that the underground palace had collapsed inexplicably and the smile on his face collapsed promptly. His face swiftly turned dark. “Do you think everyone loves you or something?”

Min Yu went speechless.

Prof Min did not want to talk to him. Instead, he chatted with Huo Yao.

Min Yu sighed softly inside. He could already tell that his status in the family would be very low.

He raised his head, glanced at the archaeological team, and veered his eyes. He asked, “Where’s Uncle Sheng?”

He was referring to Chairman Sheng. Thanks to his father, he occasionally got to interact with Chairman Sheng.

“He had an archaeology conference to attend in the morning.” Prof Min raised his hand and checked the time. Then, he said, “He called earlier. I think he’s probably reaching the airport soon.”

Min Yu nodded. He glanced at Huo Yao. When they made eye contact, a knowing look swept across their eyes.

From the moment Huo Yao mentioned sending his father off to the airport, he knew her intentions.

At this moment, two cars pulled up at the drop-off area one after another. Chairman Sheng opened the car door and got off the first car. Then, he walked straight into the airport’s main hall.
