Chapter 367: Master Juan Forces, Master Showdown!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The Second Hall Master’s hopes were immediately dashed. “If we don’t clear the checkpoint, we won’t be able to pa.s.s the inspection…”
“How come? With Master Juan, those things are essentially non-existent.” Cheng Mu looked blank. After all, it wasn’t the first time Master Juan ran amok at the airport.
The Cheng family’s Third Young Master was stupid, and even his men were too…
The team leader looked at Cheng Mu’s calm face and couldn’t help but sneer. Did they think this was Beijing? Everyone would give face to the Cheng family’s Crown Prince? Even if it was Beijing, they couldn’t pa.s.s the inspection either, let alone City C.
Treat as non-existent? How was it possible? Did they treat the airport forces as nonexistent?
Thinking of this, he looked up at Cheng Mu sarcastically.
He didn’t bother listening to him further. Since the Second Hall Master was too stubborn to heed his advice, he stopped persuading him and left the study.
Cheng Mu also finished his tea and put down the teacup. He waited for the team leader to close the door before glancing at the Second Hall Master. “Remember, tomorrow, your men and the goods will take off at 7 o’clock. You must arrive on time at the location.”
The Second Hall Master was a little shocked to see Cheng Mu behave so seriously for the first time and subconsciously nodded.
Cheng Mu also left.
The Second Hall Master’s subordinates came to inquire anxiously. “Second Hall Master, do you really want to take all the brothers and the goods tomorrow… Eldest Young Master is really not helping. Will we all be detained there?”
It would indeed be a big loss to the Second Hall Master if they were detained there, and he would be powerless by the time he returned to the Cheng family.
He was also sitting on the fence and deep in thought, and his eyes happened to meet the teacup from which Cheng Mu had just drunk from.
He suddenly paused.
Quickly standing up, he reached out for the cup.
Smash—
The teacup immediately fell onto the table and broke into pieces.
What kind of force could silently hold the teacup like this?
Thinking of Cheng Mu’s words, he slapped the table, thought for a while, and said with trembling eyes, “We’ll go to the airport tomorrow morning!”

Outside.
Cheng Mu came out and looked down to blankly send a message to Qin Ran—
[Miss Qin, why can’t I crush the cup in front of him? In fact, I can crush it even more! I secretly crushed it, but would he know that it was because of me? Did I crush it for nothing?]
Qin Ran ignored him.
Anxious, Cheng Mu went to ask Cheng Jin again.
Cheng Jin: […]
He told Cheng Mu to shut up.

The next day at five in the morning.
Cheng Juan and Qin Ran set off with Jiang Dongye following them.
They got downstairs and saw a private jet parked in the middle of the courtyard.
Jiang Dongye glanced at Cheng Juan. “Master Juan, don’t tell me this is our transportation today…”
Handing Qin Ran’s luggage to Cheng Mu, Cheng Juan casually glanced at him in response. “You can skip it if you don’t like it.”
Jiang Dongye quickly vetoed. “Of course not. But I remember that all major cities have limited flight orders, so I’m afraid we will be detained. We can do this in Beijing, but isn’t it too arrogant in City C?”
Cheng Juan glanced at him.
Jiang Dongye automatically understood his meaning: This is considered arrogant?
Jiang Dongye was speechless.
You’re so arrogant.
With complicated thoughts, he followed Cheng Mu onto the private jet, worried that he would be blown up along the way. But forty minutes later, he arrived at the airport unscathed and in a daze.
“When did Master Juan get the flight order?” Jiang Dongye wiped his face and glanced at Cheng Mu.
Cheng Mu was even more surprised. “What’s a flight order?”
Jiang Dongye observed his face and realized that he really didn’t know, so he narrowed his eyes in Cheng Juan’s direction. Why did he feel like this trip to City C was full of weird things?
The airport staff first took Jiang Dongye and Cheng Mu to the flight pa.s.sage, which was different from the ordinary flight pa.s.sage…
They didn’t check Jiang Dongye’s luggage…
Neither was there a boarding pa.s.s…
Shocked, Jiang Dongye was about to ask the airport staff, but when he saw how calm and normal Cheng Mu looked, he politely handed his things to the stewardess and asked her to do the consignment, pretending everything was normal.
“Young Master Jiang, what’s the matter with you?” Cheng Mu glanced at him.
Jiang Dongye swallowed his words and boarded the plane with Cheng Mu, pretending to be calm. “… Nothing.”

Inspection Zone 1 of the airport.
Cheng Juan was still slowly lining up for milk tea.
The airport was rather crowded at this time, and a dozen people were queuing in front of him.
“Let’s go find your hall master first.” Qin Ran stood beside him without queuing and pressed her hat down. “It’s half past six, they won’t have time to get on the plane later.”
“It’s enough.” Cheng Juan stuck his hands in his pocket and lazily looked away from the milk tea. “They won’t have many people.”
After another calculation, he slightly narrowed his cold and beautiful eyes, before slowly saying, “It’ll probably be the Second Hall Master and his confidants, so about 20 or 30 people. Ten minutes is enough for them, don’t worry.”
Cheng Juan was punctual and naturally wouldn’t make them wait too much.
Qin Ran paused and then looked up at him. “You counted it?”
“Of course.” Cheng Juan moved up the queue. Seeing that she was still rooted to the spot in deep thought, he reached out to pull her forward and casually said, “My eldest brother’s men will make trouble.”
Qin Ran nodded, then glanced at the people in front. She calculated the time and thought they would have only ten minutes left until 7 o’clock if they bought the milk tea.
She couldn’t help but sigh. “Master Juan.”
Cheng Juan glanced at her. “Yeah?”
“I don’t want to drink anymore.”
Two minutes later, they reached the physical inspection area.
The Second Hall Master and his team were inside, on pins and needles.
Cheng Mu had especially reminded them to leave at 7 o’clock last night, so they had come at 5 o’clock. After all, they had many things to go through routine inspections.
An hour certainly wasn’t enough for so many people to pa.s.s the inspection.
After arriving at 5 o’clock, they didn’t see Cheng Mu and Cheng Juan until 6:30 am.
“Second Hall Master, the Third Young Master said we’ll set off at 7 am, but there has been no inspection until now. Do they even know the process?” The Second Hall Master’s subordinate stared at the entrance. He was already irritated after waiting for more than an hour.
If the inspection started at 5 am, they would have just enough time for so many people, but it was already 7:30 am, and they still couldn’t see Cheng Mu nor Cheng Juan…
The Second Hall Master was also thinking. Had he been fooled by Cheng Mu, or had he misunderstood something last night?
Seeing this, his subordinate glanced at him again. “Second Hall Master, not to mention the physical inspection problem, did the Third Young Master give you the registration information? Has he issued the boarding pa.s.ses?”
These things…
The Second Hall Master had only noticed Cheng Mu’s methods last night and hadn’t considered these things. He gaped involuntarily.
The subordinates exchanged glances.
One person took out his ID card and swiped it on a self-service machine not far away.
No boarding information.
He turned his head blankly towards the Second Hall Master. “Second Hall Master, I have no boarding information. Did you leave out my name?”
“How could it be?” He had personally checked the list one by one.
He took his ID card and scanned it on the machine, but the flight information was also blank.
The Third Young Master didn’t even help them arrange the flight?
In utter disbelief, he took the ID card and went to the information desk ten meters away. The service staff checked his ID card, and then seriously looked at the Second Hall Master. “You said you have a bunch of people in the area?” he asked doubtfully.
“Wait a moment.” The service immediately made a call, and a team of security guards came over.
The already anxious subordinates saw the Second Hall Master coming over with a depressed expression along with several security guards and were all shocked.
The security had already regarded this place as a key target and had blocked the door.
Staring at these guards, the Second Hall Master’s head spun, and he looked sideways at his subordinates’ disappointed and frustrated expressions. He now regretted his arbitrary decision last night.
He didn’t care about himself, but if he had known this was the case, he wouldn’t have brought his subordinates and goods along…
“Second Hall Master, where’s the Third Young Master? Where’s Cheng Mu? Give them a call!” His confidant reminded him in a low voice.
Taking out his phone, the Second Hall Master gave a wry smile, his heart feeling heavy. It was useless even if he called Cheng Juan now…
He just opened the address book and was staring at the words “Eldest Young Master” with an internal struggle when—
A clear voice came from the door. “Here?”
Cheng Juan nodded and then lazily surveyed the area. He had already calculated that there were about 28 people, but at this time, a few hundred people could be seen.
He paused.
The Second Hall Master and the others all looked up subconsciously.
