It seemed that the impending farewell made Honda Tsubasa completely unafraid.

She was already Xu Fan's woman, so what if someone heard?

"I'll see you off."

Honda Tsubasa helped Xu Fan put on his clothes, took his arm, and walked outside.

"Why don't you just..."

Xu Fan felt that what Honda Tsubasa needed most right now was rest.

However, after seeing her resolute eyes, he dismissed the thought.

If he didn't let her see him off now, she wouldn't be happy. Xu Fan held her arm and walked out of the room.

"Xu Fan, everyone is ready, we can set off."

Holding Honda Tsubasa, he walked downstairs and saw that Asao Mai and a few others had already packed their luggage.

As for the ambiguous relationship between Xu Fan and Honda Tsubasa, it was completely ignored by them.

"Alright, let's go."

Xu Fan nodded and left the villa with everyone.

With their luggage, the group got into the car, and the motorcade drove grandly toward Tokyo International Airport.

The flight ticket back to Jinling, Huaxia was the earliest flight. Xu Fan's group arrived at the airport with not much time left before boarding.

At the security check, Xu Fan stopped walking.

Honda Tsubasa had seen him off far enough. He gently stroked her cheek and said, "Alright, you can stop here."

"If you miss me, come to Huaxia to find me."

"Hmm, I will."

Honda Tsubasa blushed slightly and nodded in agreement.

Honestly, she wished she could fly back to Huaxia with Xu Fan, but she knew that the Martial Arts World in Dongying had just stabilized and it needed her, the Alliance Hierarch, to do something.

Leaving now would be too petty.

She didn't want to be just a pretty face! She wanted to be Xu Fan's reliable assistant!

With this belief growing stronger in her heart, Honda Tsubasa cherished a moment with Xu Fan and then parted ways.

"I'm going to say a few words to Mai."

She informed Xu Fan and walked to Asao Mai, pulling her aside.

Who knows what the two women were whispering about, but Asao Mai's cheeks occasionally turned red, and she even stole glances at Xu Fan.

After chatting with Asao Mai, Honda Tsubasa did not linger. She bid farewell to Xu Fan and left the airport.

The airport announcement for Xu Fan's flight rang out, and the group went through security and soon boarded the flight to Huaxia.

...

When the flight arrived at Jinling International Airport, night had already fallen.

Xu Fan led Igarashi and the others out of the airport doors.

Before boarding the plane, he had informed Lan Jie to arrange for someone to pick them up. As soon as they left the airport, Xu Fan quickly spotted Chen Dongdong and Shi Lei waiting outside.

Xu Fan waved his hand, and Chen Dongdong and Shi Lei led the group over to greet him.

"Boss, heh heh, did you bring me any Dongying specialties?"

Chen Dongdong scurried over, rubbing his hands, and asked with a mischievous smile.

His cheeky expression made Xu Fan laugh, and he kicked his behind lightly.

"Boss, who are these?"

After playfully bantering with Chen Dongdong for a while, Shi Lei came over and asked Xu Fan.

Compared to Chen Dongdong, he was much more composed.

He looked cautiously at the unfamiliar faces beside Xu Fan, especially at Igarashi, feeling intuitively that this person was quite extraordinary.

"Don't worry, they're all friends I made in Dongying."

Not able to explain clearly in a short time, Xu Fan patted Shi Lei's shoulder and said, "Alright, let's head to Lingyan Pavilion first, and I'll explain later."

"Understood."

Without any delay, Shi Lei led Xu Fan's group to the waiting motorcade.

After getting into the car, the motorcade slowly made its way towards Lingyan Pavilion.

"In a few days, I will have a friend come to take care of you. She'll be responsible for looking after you and the girls."

While en route to Lingyan Pavilion, Xu Fan explained his instructions to Asao Mai.

He had already informed Feng Huang about Asao Mai, and soon she would take care of her for him.

Regarding the charity for stray children, he would entrust Feng Huang to handle it entirely.

"Don't worry, I'll... I'll be well-behaved."

At Tokyo International Airport, Honda Tsubasa had told her about these matters. Asao Mai had no tantrums and agreed obediently.

Like Honda Tsubasa, she didn't want to be just a vase for Xu Fan.

Though she couldn't help Xu Fan much now, she knew undeniably that she mustn't act out irrationally.

A man wouldn't like a woman who constantly makes a fuss, no matter how pretty she is.

Soon, the motorcade arrived at the Lingyan Pavilion Clubhouse. After getting out of the car, Xu Fan instructed Shi Lei to arrange accommodation for Asao Mai and the girls, and then headed inside the clubhouse with Igarashi.

He went straight to the conference room, knocked on the door, and upon opening it, saw Xiao Lan waiting there.

"Hmph, brat, you've been gone for so long, making your Lan Jie busy."

Seeing Xu Fan enter, Xiao Lan's eyes briefly flickered with emotion.

You should know, while Xu Fan was in Dongying, she had been worrying about him day and night.

Now, seeing Xu Fan return safely, she could finally put her mind at ease.

"How did it go? Did you accomplish what you set out to do in Dongying?"

Curiously, Xiao Lan glanced at Igarashi beside Xu Fan and asked about the trip to Dongying.

There's no doubt about the other's identity; if Xu Fan trusts him enough to bring him to the conference room, then she'd trust him as well.

If Xu Fan trusts someone, Xiao Lan naturally trusts them too.

"Whew..."

Upon being asked about the outcome in Dongying, Xu Fan couldn't help but take a breath.

"It's hard to explain in a few words. There were joys and sorrows."

His journey to Dongying was eventful, and it would be genuinely difficult to explain to Lan Jie.

Indeed, he gained a lot in Dongying, but at the same time, many hidden troubles began to surface.

It's uncertain whether this situation is delightful or worrying, Xu Fan couldn't make sense of it for the time being...
