âI understand. Donât worry. Iâll be on my guard.â

There were two sections in the cabin. Hua Jin and Natalia were in the other section.
The route they took was a full ten hours from the capital to the Hurricane Group. And during those ten hours, despite her exhaustion, Lisa did not sleep.
Alice and Gong Jie went to the dining area for a bottle of dry red wine. While Gong Jie was fine after having a few drinks, Alice was tipsy.
âIâm going to get some sleep. What about you?â
âGo get some rest. Iâll stay here. Iâm worried about Lisa having to handle Gong Fan alone.â

In his seat, Gong Fan drank a glass of fruit juice and stared out of the window in a daze.
Private planes were different from commercial planes. They were alot more spacious.
The plane was huge to begin with, and the interior was extremely luxurious. The space was divided into a dining area and reception area, as well as a living area and a projection area. Alice returned to the living area, while Gong Jie, Gong Fan, and Lisa sat in the reception area.
The reception area featured a solid timber wine cabinet and a small bar. Under their feet was an expensive saxon carpet, the sofa set was luxurious. It was obvious all these cost a fortune.
Lisa saw that Gong Fan had been staring out the window in a daze. She said him cautiously, âArenât you tired? If you feel tired, you can sleep.â
âI donât wish to sleep.â
âWhy donât you want to sleep? I sense youâre exhausted.â
Gong Fan finally turned to look at her. âI donât dare to sleep.â
âWhy?â
âIâm afraid that if I fall asleep, Iâll not wake up again.â
Lisa smiled, helpless. âWhy would you think that? Anyway, no matter what, stop being so negative. Everything will be alright when we get back to the Hurricane Group.â
âHow can I believe that everything will be alright just because weâre back in the Hurricane Group?â As Gong Fan spoke, he lowered his head and looked at his hands numbly.
âEven I canât control my body. How can I believe that anyone else can control me?â
Lisa winced, suddenly speechless. She was silent for a long time. Then she said seriously, âAlthough thatâs what you say, I believe that everything will be fine!â
âLetâs hope so!â

Alice came out of the sitting room and saw Lisa sitting with Gong Fan. She suddenly walked over to Gong Jie and asked quietly, âWhy do I feel that Lisa is especially attentive to Gong Fan?â
Gong Jie shot her a cool, suspicious glance. âWhat are you getting at?â
âIâm just asking if you feel that way.â
âYes.â
âThen do you also feel that Little Yichen pays Lisa a great deal of attention?â
Gong Jie suddenly understood why she was being so secretive about it. âHasnât Little Yichen always been attentive towards Lisa.â
âWell look, Little Yichen likes Lisa, but Lisa likes Youyou⦠I mean, Gong Fan⦠no matter how you look at it, it seems like a three-cornered relationship.â Alice sounded worried. âIn that case, would that not develop into a love triangle when they grow up?â
Gong Jie smiled. âThen you must not have noticed how attentive Youyou is towards Natalia.â
âAh, I can see that!â She had already noticed that when the boy had repeatedly insisted that Gong Jie adopt Natalia.
âWhy do you think the boy cares so much about Natalia?â
âBecause⦠sheâs pretty?â That was the only possibility Gong Jie could think of.
âWell ⦠Iâve lost all hope in this superficial world.â
âYou should have, long ago.â
In this world, looks is everything.
