Daxing Airport, Beijing, China
The sky over the city was cast with dark clouds, and from time to time, flashes of lightning could be seen from far away, announcing the impending arrival of rain that would likely continue well into the night.
A greyish-blue private jet landed on the Reserved Air Strip of the Daxing Airport, piquing the interest of some people from the nearby terminals, who immediately recognised the model of the Jet. And it was easily recognisable since it was the world's most luxurious and fastest Jet, the Zephrys Blue.
There were not many of these machines in the world as these Jets were ridiculously expensive, and this got them all thinking about who had just landed in Beijing.
Unfortunately, the Reserved Air Strip was quite far away, and though they could see the Jet, they could not really see who disembarked it.
However, they did notice that there was not a lot of security, which confused them even more.
Surely someone who flies in this Jet is entitled to some protocol. So, why was there no security? Or was the Jet here to pick someone up?
They had a lot of questions on their minds, and it wasn't until a girl, who had zoomed in with her cell phone, gasped when she saw the ridiculously handsome man exit the plane that the people came to know who the Jet belonged to.
Before Keith even stepped on the soil of this country, his image was already on Social Media. Needless to say, the news of his arrival was bound to shake the Capital.
But it was all just as he had intended.
Taking a deep breath, he looked at the sky and smiled, and then he slowly descended the stairs followed by Yingying, Iseul, and Fiona.
He did not have to wait long because soon a couple of cars came to pick them up, and he could not restrain his smile when he looked at the models of these vehicles.
It was an SUV and a Sedan, and both the vehicles were special as they were only made for either the High-Level Government Officials in this country or for the truly rich and powerful people who could afford them.
These two cars by Hongqi, Z-HS9 and S-95L, were a status symbol here in China, and they were two of the most sought-after cars in the world. Unfortunately for the enthusiasts, it was illegal to take them out of this country.
"Why am I not surprised?" He grinned as he watched the girl exit the Sedan, and she could not help her smile either at seeing him.
"Well, they were more than willing to sell these to me. I did not even have to mention your name. Besides, I don't like using rented cars." Qingyue told him as she came over and entered his arms, hugging him tightly. "Do you like them?" She knowingly asked and smiled when he said yes.
She knew well that the only reason these cars were so effortlessly acquired by her was that she was the wife of Keith Argus Demiliore, one of the richest men in the world, and someone, who had a lot of his Business in China, thanks to Social Media platform, Memoir.
"I missed you." He honestly told her, and his words warmed up her heart and eyes.
She immediately tiptoed to capture his lips, and after sharing a sweet kiss, she separated from him and allowed the other girl, who had been driving the SUV, to come forward and enter his arms as well.
Ayesha was not too shy about it anymore, and she no longer cared about the eyes of people when she hugged him and kissed him. However, she did keep their intimacy brief in public.
"I see you haven't gained weight this time." He took a jab at her, and she playfully glared at him before she looked at the young lady whom she had never met before.
Qingyue and Ayesha knew about Fiona, and they had even talked on a live call where Ingvild had introduced them, so, it was not awkward at all for any of them as they greeted each other.
The two were quite impressed by her manners and temperament just within a few minutes of meeting her in person, but it would have been a lie if they had not expected her to be this way since Keith had chosen to keep her by his side.
"You still haven't told me why we are here." Qingyue reminded him, and he smiled at her.
"We will talk over supper. Let's go."
"We are not here for just business, are we?" She asked after she got into the driving seat of the sedan, and it was clear that she would not start the car unless he answered her question.
"No, we are also here to have fun and explore the country." He told her, and it was the answer she wanted to hear.
"Good!" She enthusiastically nodded her head and then clicked on navigation. "Where are we eating?" She asked as she looked at the list of Restaurants.
"The Imperial Inn." He said and he helped her find the location on the map which was on the outskirts of the city, nearly an hour away. "The hotel has one of the best Chinese Restaurants in the world. And it's been a while since I had Chinese Food."
"Have you been here before?" She curiously asked as she started driving.
Since this was a very special place, it also meant that it was not crowded at this hour of the day.
It felt like they were the only ones in this royal restaurant, and Qingyue liked the serenity and the beauty of the place.
Since everything was made fresh for them, the food took over half an hour to arrive, but it was worth the wait as his dear wife was stunned at how delicious it was.
"This is the best Chinese Food I have ever had." Iseul honestly said, and Qingyue could not help but nod her head after she tasted the soup again.
It was indeed the best Hot Pot she had had in her life.
The attendants were probably expecting them to waste the food when they had ordered so much of it, but when they saw them finish it all up, they could not help their pleasant surprise.
They did not even ask if they liked it or not as it was obvious, but they did ask about the wine that the Manager had sent to them.
"It is good. Do thank Manager Ding from me." Keith smilingly said.
"Of course, Master Demiliore." And with that, they wiped the table and left them alone to enjoy the tea.
"So, why are we in China?" Qingyue finally asked with a smile.
She had been wanting to ask the question over their meal, but since everyone was busy enjoying it, she had kept the question.
"I am here for someone." He honestly replied, and it piqued his wife's curiosity.
"Who?"
"Qin Rouxi."
Qingyue raised her brow at the name, and even though she did not know who Keith was talking about, she did remember what the name Qin meant from what Rebecca had told her.
The current Hades was actually an estranged child of the Ancient Qin Family.
"Is she related to Hades?" Her question caught Ayesha and Yingying by surprise. Fiona did not understand what they were talking about, and Iseul already knew the answer.
"They are third cousins." He nodded to her. "But she is not really a part of the Qin Family."
"Estranged?"
"You could say that." He nodded to her.
"I see." She nodded to him, and Keith was amused when she no longer raised another question about it.
She did not even ask what he wanted to do with Qin Rouxi, but it was clear on her face that she was a little upset with him.
"We will start on our road trip tomorrow."
Hearing his words, she raised her head to look at him curiously.
"To where?"
"Hangzhou."
"She lives there?"
"Yes."
"Then why are we in Beijing?" She narrowed her eyes.
"You will know in a while." He mysteriously smiled.
