My Perfect Female CEO-Chapter 1028: Let’s Go Home

About a hundred miles outside of Dongfang City, at a certain base, the military plane carrying Ye Fan slowly landed.

After the plane came to a stable stop, Ye Fan poked Lu Xiangxiang’s head. It was only then that Lu Xiangxiang groggily woke up. Since boarding the plane, she had been asleep with her head resting on Ye Fan’s shoulder. Not even Qin Yi’s disembarking had woken her.

"We’re home now. You can sleep when you get back home," Ye Fan said lightly.

"Oh!" Lu Xiangxiang, in a dreamlike daze, opened her eyes and slowly began to gather her senses.

She rubbed her head, then noticed a large wet spot on Ye Fan’s shoulder. Her lips also had some liquid on them. She immediately blushed with embarrassment, touched Ye Fan’s shoulder with her hand, and then withdrew her hand sheepishly, wiping her mouth with the back of her hand.

"I drooled, how embarrassing." Face flushed and neck red, Lu Xiangxiang wished she could find a hole to crawl into.

Ye Fan acted as if he hadn’t noticed Lu Xiangxiang’s awkward state, showing no reaction whatsoever.

Lu Xiangxiang’s large black eyes swiftly darted around, and she relaxed. Since Ye Fan didn’t want to embarrass her, she would pretend nothing had happened.

Chi Qinyuan, Gao Mingyuan, and the others disembarked one after another. Ye Fan and Lu Xiangxiang were the last to get off the plane.

"Sorry about that, usually I don’t drool. I was just too tired," Lu Xiangxiang explained in a voice as tiny as a mosquito’s buzz.

Feeling her image had become less ladylike, she naturally wanted to clear up the misunderstanding.

"It’s fine, no need to explain, I understand," Ye Fan said casually.

"I got your clothes wet. Do you need me to wash them for you?" Lu Xiangxiang looked up at Ye Fan seriously.

"No need. After spending so much time in the jungle, the clothes are already dirty. Your drool helped wash a corner of my shirt," Ye Fan said slowly.

"You clearly saw me drooling and didn’t wake me up, choosing instead to watch me make a fool of myself in front of everyone. Not that anyone else would care, but I’m embarrassed—it makes you a bad man." Lu Xiangxiang felt oddly reproachful inside, yet at the same time, she was grateful to Ye Fan for not disturbing her and allowing her a good sleep, which eased her exhaustion a little and naturally filled her with gratitude.

You can’t guess what a woman’s thinking; this was what Lu Xiangxiang was like at the moment, impossible to predict.

Outside the plane, Mengyao and Du Xueqi, along with five other women and Qiu Wen, were already waiting there.

"What’s up with those seven women?"

"This is a military restricted area. How can unrelated women be allowed in?"

"They’re here to pick someone up. But who has the privilege to have seven stunning beauties come to greet them?"

"Especially the woman in the center, she is like an ice queen, her aura is so strong it makes others feel unworthy to approach."

The base personnel around looked at Mengyao and the others with extremely peculiar expressions.

The moment Gao Mingyuan and the others got off the plane, they were overwhelmed with excitement.

"We’re back, finally back. The air of our country is so charming, it intoxicates the soul and makes the body and mind comfortable." Gao Mingyuan lay on the ground, almost kissing the hard surface.

The others each had their own ways of expressing the ecstasy of escaping death.

"This experience was dangerous enough. If those big men ended up like this, Miss Lu must have had a hard time too." Qiu Wen glanced at Gao Mingyuan and the others and said in a low voice.

"Yes, poor girl. Who could have imagined such misfortune would happen?" Mengyao said, full of concern.

When Ye Fan and Lu Xiangxiang got off the plane, as soon as Lu Xiangxiang saw Mengyao and the others, she dashed forward like a starving ghost seeing food, sprinting as fast as she could and soon embracing Mengyao.

"Mengyao, I almost didn’t get to see you again, you wouldn’t even have seen my body." Lu Xiangxiang complained, tears rolling down her face like pearls on a broken string, raining fiercely.

Ye Fan shook his head, puzzled at how the fine Lu Xiangxiang suddenly became like this.

In front of him, Lu Xiangxiang was quite reserved, not daring to express her grievances. But in front of Mengyao, she could let go entirely. It was only natural for her to react this way.

Lu Xiangxiang cried as if she wanted to let out all her grievances and hardships, clinging onto Mengyao and refusing to let go.

"Don’t cry, don’t cry, it’s all in the past now." Mengyao patted Lu Xiangxiang’s back, soothing her like a child.

Qiu Wen and Du Xueqi exchanged glances, full of sympathy for Lu Xiangxiang’s plight.

If an ordinary person went through what Lu Xiangxiang did, it wouldn’t be surprising for them to lose their sanity. Fortunately, Lu Xiangxiang had excellent mental resilience and was a professional doctor, allowing her to endure, or she might have broken down.

Ye Fan prided himself on taking good care of Lu Xiangxiang, going to great lengths to make her feel at ease. Yet he hadn’t managed to elicit this kind of emotional release from her—she unleashed it all upon seeing Mengyao, which left him baffled.

"Master (Benefactor)!" Qiu Wen and Du Xueqi greeted Ye Fan with smiles.

Ye Fan nodded, then looked at Mengyao and said, "Let’s go, let’s not just stand here being watched."

"Let her vent a bit. What’s so scary about being watched?" Mengyao gave Ye Fan a side-eye.

"She’s fine. She slept like a log the whole way, what could be wrong?" Ye Fan said indifferently, "A good sleep will pass, and if there are shadows lingering, just find a psychologist to talk it over."

"Ye Fan, you’re so annoying!" Lu Xiangxiang lifted her head and stared fiercely at Ye Fan, shouting, "The bravest thing I’ve done was dissect a corpse, yet this time I saw so many dead bodies, survived bullets and shells, and almost died of hunger and thirst. Escaped from the jaws of death, survived a catastrophe, and you can’t be a little gentle?"

"If you can talk loudly and get angry, it means you’re fine," Ye Fan said earnestly.

Qiu Wen and the other women looked at both Lu Xiangxiang and Ye Fan, then smiled knowingly.

"Hmph!" Lu Xiangxiang glared at Ye Fan and snorted angrily, then grabbed Mengyao’s hand and walked away, muttering, "Mengyao, I’m hungry. Shall we go eat something? I fell asleep as soon as I got on the plane. Luckily, you came to pick me up, or I wouldn’t know where to go, who to complain to. Let’s ignore Ye Fan, you take care of me and don’t mind him."

Lu Xiangxiang walked briskly away with Mengyao.

Mengyao turned back to give Ye Fan a shy smile and said quickly, "Let’s go home. Xiangxiang’s a patient now, you need to take care of her a bit."

Ye Fan smiled wryly and stepped quickly to catch up.

Qiu Wen and the others shook their heads, looking at Lu Xiangxiang clinging to Mengyao, also smiling helplessly.

Gao Mingyuan and the others looked enviously at Lu Xiangxiang, who was being so well taken care of. They could only envy.

The same experience, yet why is the treatment so different?
