Chapter 1874: Chapter 631: The Great Emperor’s Prestige, Jealousy
Yan City International Airport.
Two black Mercedes-Benz business vehicles circled around the crowded public drop-off area and steadily parked in front of the FBO terminal.
The front car door opened, and a tall, graceful figure stepped out first.
In the standard urban chic outfit, she wore a classic camel-colored cashmere coat by Max Mara over her ensemble.
Her honey-colored long hair was impeccably tied at the back of her head.
She wore oversized Dior sunglasses on her face, covering most of it, leaving only the exquisite jawline and a splash of vibrant red lipstick.
The sunlight of late autumn carried a thin warmth, falling on her and casting a soft halo.
She exuded an alluring urban woman vibe.
Soon after, four elegantly dressed young men and women stepped out of the business vehicle behind her.
They curiously examined the independent terminal designed for private and corporate jet passengers.
"The FBO in Yan City seems like it hasn’t been built for long; this is my first visit here."
"Yes, it was newly built last year; I accompanied my dad on a corporate jet twice before."
"Tsk tsk, as expected, Brother Hang is knowledgeable and experienced."
Zhou Hang smiled, his gaze involuntarily drawn to the sultry figure not far ahead, "This time we’re riding on Muxue’s coattails, flying directly from Yan City to London; chartering this trip isn’t cheap."
The others nodded in agreement.
They all had studied in the UK, naturally, they understood the pricing.
However, they were just ordinary rich second generation, even Zhou Hang, from the most affluent family, had assets slightly over a hundred million yuan.
Spending their own money like this would definitely make them cringe.
"Xue, thank you so much."
Zhang Xi cheerfully ran over to Lin Muxue, affectionately holding her arm.
She and Lin Muxue had co-founded "Snow Candy Culture," and with the popularity of the Yannan Short Drama Base, they had begun to profit, making her increasingly convinced in her friend.
This time on the trip, Lin Muxue voluntarily "chartered" a jet to take them along at no cost.
It genuinely boosted her prestige among these friends.
"Haha, it’s nothing, don’t mention it." Lin Muxue took off her sunglasses, her exquisite and well-defined face displaying a serene smile.
She raised a hand to style her hair blown by the wind with an elegant and graceful motion.
Zhou Hang and Li Zhe’s gaze was irresistibly drawn to her, eyes full of admiration.
Ground service personnel in sharp uniforms hurriedly approached.
Collecting their luggage from the driver.
The lead client manager wore a respectful and welcoming smile, "Good morning, Ms. Lin! Your crew is ready, and refreshments are prepared in the lounge for you, let me escort you there."
Lin Muxue nodded lightly and stepped forward.
The other four quickly followed suit.
Soon, the client manager led them into an exclusive VIP waiting lounge.
Freshly brewed Blue Mountain coffee, a fresh fruit platter, freshly made French desserts...
The waiting lounge was filled with luxurious ambiance.
All around, they scrutinized their surroundings, gradually taking seats on the sofas.
They started discussing topics related to London.
Lin Muxue rarely spoke, merely savoring her coffee in silence.
Of course, the real reason was that she had never visited Europe and America; she was completely unfamiliar with the region.
But when traveling abroad, she couldn’t lose the prestige of the Great Emperor.
Silence was the best way to maintain mystery.
After chatting for a while, Zhou Hang suddenly shifted the topic:
"By the way, I just heard some news. A few days ago, at a birthday party of a friend of my friend, many impressive big shots appeared, and there was a surprise performance by the Echo girl group."
"Huh? Isn’t the Echo girl group preparing for their tour? How could they show up at a private party?"
"What kind of big shots? Tell us!"
Feeling the interested gaze from Lin Muxue, Zhou Hang’s heart warmed.
He leaned forward slightly, chuckling as he flaunted, "I heard that Su Yu’s former agent, Tangzong Entertainment’s CEO Mo Xiangwan, DJRH’s founder Zheng Qiudong, and a CEO from a top Singaporean capital were present."
Upon hearing these identities and names, Zhang Xi and the others immediately widened their eyes, exclaiming in low voices and excitedly discussing.
They had limited understanding of business finance; the real shock came from the name "Mo Xiangwan," representing a connection to the elite entertainment circle.
After all, artists like Su Yu and Echo were household names.
Seeing the once cool and aloof Lin Muxue now showing a different expression, Zhou Hang’s heart grew even warmer.
"There’s someone even more impressive..." His voice paused, pretending to be mysterious, "Have you heard of the Mellon family and Kate family? Attending was even a core heir of the Kate family. I heard she’s named Anne Kate. My friend said her presence was overwhelming; he didn’t dare speak."
"My goodness! Mellon? Kate? Is it true?"
"Is that the Kate Trust managing tens of trillions of US Dollars? My dad has bought their trust products in Xiang River, claiming they’re the most stable worldwide!"
"Anne Kate... what does she look like?"
The crowd instantly erupted, chattering about these unreachable top family gossip.
Zhou Hang watched this scene with satisfaction, casting expectant eyes toward Lin Muxue, waiting for her to show signs of amazement.
However, Lin Muxue simply picked up the coffee cup, gently blowing on the steam, and looked at them calmly.
This left him feeling defeated.
Right after being pulled by Zhang Xi into that small group and hearing about the trip to London for a few days to celebrate Thanksgiving, he hadn’t really taken it seriously.
