Ji Nuan immediately put on clothes and followed them out.
When she got downstairs, Feng Ling had gone out of Yu Garden. Auntie Chen happened to enter the kitchen, so she didn’t see Ji Nuan.
“Mrs. Mo?” The other two servants didn’t hear what Feng Ling told Auntie Chen, so they greeted Ji Nuan respectfully when they saw her.
Ji Nuan signaled them to be quiet. She sneaked out quietly while Auntie Chen didn’t notice her.
The servants were puzzled by her behavior, but, after all, she was the mistress of Yu Garden. Seeing her sneaked out stealthily, they dared not ask her why.
Ji Nuan hid in the yard and watched Feng Ling get into the black car waiting outside. Ji Nuan looked at the direction the car left and then turned to glance at the other cars in the garage.
Feng Ling was very wary. She would soon find her if she just followed her in a car.

Half an hour later.
As the Ji family was on good terms with the traffic police brigade of Hai City, Ji Nuan asked them to help track the route and destination of the car Feng Ling took.
They told Ji Nuan that the car headed straight for the airport after leaving Yu Garden.
Ji Nuan immediately drove to the airport. Half an hour later, she reached the airport. As soon as she got into the airport, she took a pair of sungla.s.ses large enough to cover half of her face from her bag and put them on, raising her collar high to cover her chin and the lower part of her face. Then she looked around and walked straight toward the pa.s.sage to international flights.
As she expected, Feng Ling was going abroad. From a distance, Ji Nuan spotted Feng Ling and several men in a black suit conducting boarding checks. Ji Nuan looked at the flight number displayed above the counter and checked it with her cell phone. It was a flight from Hai City to Cambodia two hours later.
Ji Nuan hid behind. When Feng Ling and the other men entered the security pa.s.sage, she rushed to the counter and asked if there was any seat available on this flight. Then she bought a ticket for the same flight, pa.s.sed through the security check, and entered the first-cla.s.s lounge.
Feng Ling and those men bought economy tickets. Now they were waiting in the waiting area that was a distance away from the first-cla.s.s lounge where Ji Nuan was. Looking out through the window, she could see the crowd waiting outside, but they couldn’t see her from the outside.
“h.e.l.lo, do you need anything to drink?” A staff member of the lounge came up to her and asked gently.
Ji Nuan looked out again and found Feng Ling and the other men eating some bread and drinking mineral water. Apparently, they were really in a hurry.
Ji Nuan waved her hands, showing that she didn’t need anything to drink. She didn’t make any sound. After all, Feng Ling was a person of keen perception. She worried that Feng Ling might notice her if she made any sound.
The staff member didn’t ask her any more questions but gave her a fresh fruit bowl and some cookies provided to every pa.s.senger in this lounge.
Because she was pregnant, Ji Nuan ate some fruit and cookies when waiting for boarding. When the boarding announcement rang, Feng Ling happened to go to the toilet. Taking advantage of this chance, Ji Nuan hurried out. Her ticket was first-cla.s.s and she was pregnant, so she could board the plane first without queuing. In this way, she successfully avoided the Feng Ling’s eyes and boarded the plane.

During the five-hour flight, Ji Nuan stayed quietly in the first cla.s.s and didn’t go to the rear. She struggled for hours with her pregnancy symptoms and refrained herself from vomiting, but after the plane landed at Phnom Penh International Airport, due to discomfort at landing, when the pa.s.sengers lined up to go outside, Ji Nuan suddenly retched. She raised her hand to cover her mouth when a pa.s.sing flight attendant noticed her and asked her to get off the plane first.
Feng Ling and those men walked in front of the queue and happened to stop in the first-cla.s.s gate. Hearing Ji Nuan’s voice, Feng Ling cast a suspicious glance at her side. The next second, her face stiffened, and she jerked around to stare at Ji Nuan who was hurriedly putting on sungla.s.ses—

“Feng Ling, Feng Ling… slow down…” Ji Nuan was dragged all the way from the exit to the lounge by Feng Ling. She gripped her wrist so hard that she couldn’t break free of her.
Feng Ling said solemnly as she walked, “It’s too dangerous here. You can’t follow me. Go back to Hai City. There’s a direct flight back to Hai City this evening. Take that flight and go back!’
“Mo Jingshen is here. I will not go back. I will not go back unless I see him standing in front of me, safe and sound!”
“Mrs. Mo!”
“Feng Ling, I will not add to your trouble or hold you back. If you were me, will you just stay in Hai City at ease?”
Feng Ling’s face stiffened, and then the look in her eyes softened a bit. She lowered her voice, “I’m not worrying that you may be an inconvenience. Cambodia’s capital may seem safe, but the overall situation in this country is not so good these days. The area near Tonlé Sap Lake is filled with landmines, guns, and drugs. You shouldn’t come here, let alone since you are pregnant now!”
Ji Nuan didn’t speak but just looked at her.
Seeing her look, Feng Ling frowned. “I know you can’t just wait in Hai City, but Mrs. Mo. This place and the life you’re used to at home are completely worlds apart. It’s like the difference between peace and war, understood?”
“But Mo Jingshen is here.” Ji Nuan’s voice was gentle yet determined.
Feng Ling gazed at her for quite a while, and her frowned brows slowly unfurled. She seemed not to have the heart to drive Ji Nuan away, but she couldn’t let her stay in such a dangerous place.
“Mr. Mo won’t want you to go into this kind of place, and you have to protect your child. There may be war here at any time…” Feng Ling said in a low voice, “Although I am supposed to follow your order, this time, please listen to me and go back, all right?”
Ji Nuan looked at her quietly without saying anything more. Then she turned her eyes to look at the sky outside the airport.
Now she was standing on the same land as Mo Jingshen.
She didn’t want to add trouble to Feng Ling. She just wanted to make sure whether Feng ling was really going to Cambodia. She was already at the airport and happened to have all the certificates in her bag back then. She couldn’t find him, and she just wanted to get closer and closer to him, so she followed Feng Ling all the way here.
But if her behavior caused Feng Ling problem, she certainly didn’t want that.
But she really wanted to see Mo Jingshen. At least when he came back safely, she could stand in front of him as soon as possible.
“What’s up?”
Suddenly a cold voice rang behind Feng Ling. Hearing this voice, Ji Nuan looked up at Nan Heng who walked towards them from the entrance of the airport.
Feng Ling’s face stiffened when she heard Nan Heng’s voice, but soon she concealed all her emotions. She turned around and looked at Nan Heng, who was walking toward her. “Sorry, I didn’t notice Mrs. Mo following us to the plane. I will send her to Hai City as soon as possible.”
