He stretched his hand and clicked on the texts . Attached on it were several pictures, and they were all from surveillance cameras .
All were taken at the Capital City’s airport lobby .
The final text read, ‘We could not identify the person . Too well-disguised . ’
They could not identify the person?
Yan Rusheng sneered .
Su Yue had already fallen asleep but Xuxu kept tossing and turning . She was worried about Yan Rusheng, and she glanced at the time on her phone .

“Why aren’t you back yet?”
It was almost three hours since he left the house .
Xuxu muttered to herself, but for fear of waking up Su Yue, she got up . She treaded lightly across the room .
Then she latched the door carefully after her and walked to the sofa . Unconsciously, she turned on the TV .
She clearly didn’t have the intention of watching TV . The next second, she typed on her phone .
“Why aren’t you back yet?”
To Xuxu’s surprise, Yan Rusheng immediately returned her call . She excitedly picked it up . “When are you coming back?”

Yan Rusheng chuckled softly on the other line . “You’re really opening the door for me?”
Perhaps it was the time of the night, but his cheerful voice sounded exceedingly gentle and pleasant that it made Xuxu’s heart tingle . And unconsciously, she began to talk in a gentle voice that seemed like she was playfully pouting . “Be serious . ”
Yan Rusheng quipped, “I’m back at your door . Come out now . ”
Xuxu glanced at the door, startled . Without a moment of hesitation, she rose and bolted for the door .
A towering and massive figure was already standing outside . She heaved a sigh of relief to ease her pounding heart .
She leaned against the door frame and beamed . “I thought someone had already abducted you . ”
Yan Rusheng was holding a bag while he stuffed the other hand in his pocket . He took a step towards Xuxu and casually leaned against the wall . They stood barely a footstep apart .
He bent his head and a seductive smile played around his mouth . He drawled, “My wife, how much do you think I’m worth based on my looks?”
Xuxu could distinctly feel Yan Rusheng’s breath and her face flushed . She moved her eyes away from his beguiling eyes and curtly said, “One yuan . ”
Yan Rusheng grinned as he offered her his palm . “Give me one yuan, and I’ll follow you to your bed . ”
“Scram . ” Xuxu glared at Yan Rusheng as she lifted an eyebrow to threaten him . “Seems like that kick wasn’t painful enough . ”
Yan Rusheng’s eyes widened in fear, and he steered their conversation out of dangerous waters . “I bought supper for you . ”
He lifted the bag to pass to Xuxu .
Xuxu eyed the bag and recognized that it was from a famous porridge chain in the Capital City . She received the bag and asked, “How did you know I was still awake?”
Yan Rusheng mischievously smiled . “I knew you were thinking of me . How would you be able to sleep?”
“Narcissistic fellow!” Xuxu hit Yan Rusheng in the chest . She held on to the doorknob as she took a step backward . “Go and sleep right now, bye!”
She was about to slam the door .
Yan Rusheng hurriedly grabbed the door to stop her . “Wife, can’t you just let me hug you?”
With a pleading and pitiful expression .
“No way, scram now!” Xuxu aimed a kick at him .
But Yan Rusheng was more observant and agile this time around, and he successfully dodged her leg . He frowned and grumbled, “Callous woman . Will it benefit you if I’m crippled? Huh?”
