Chapter 455 - A SHORT FLIGHT
"Ladies and gentlemen, the Captain has turned on the Fasten Seat Belt sign. If you haven't already done so, please stow your carry-on luggage underneath the seat in front of you or in the overhead bin. Please take your seat and fasten your seat belt… If you have any questions about our flight today, please don't hesitate to ask one of our flight attendants. Thank you."
Upon hearing the announcement from the pilot, Han Luo relaxed her body. She rubbed her temple. She couldn't sleep well last night because she had to finish some urgent reports. Now, she was having a headache.
"We are third in priority for take-off, we should depart in about five minutes," the pilot announced once again.
Han Luo glanced at the person beside her. Mo Yuan was sleeping already. Although she was under pressure, Mo Yuan had it worse. It was especially after Ma Rui's outburst.
Someone Ma Rui got a hold of the news that Han Luo was an intern in the Mo Corporation in disguise and her son was making his fiancée work like a dog. Instantly, she called for Mo Yuan and gave him a harsh scolding.
"How dare you let Luo'er work like this? Do you have any idea what she has been going through? She doesn't eat or sleep well and she buried herself at work. Are you going to share your energy with her when she collapses? What will you do if she faints and is sent to the hospital? I heard the project is one of the most important projects for the company. What will happen if she can't finish it? She will blame herself for the rest of her life! Do you want that? Do you?
"Although I don't go to the company, I know certain things about projects like this. An elite team is supposed to handle this project and you let Luo'er handle it alone without anyone's help. Are you crazy? You know she won't ask for others' help even if they offer it. She is that dutiful. You may be my son but she is also the daughter I cherish. I'm warning you. If you dare to make her suffer, you can forget about getting married to her. I don't want my daughter to marry a guy who will torture her. I handed her over to you thinking you have it in you, son. You greatly disappointed me today.
"I don't know how you are going to handle this. But, you have to take two-third of her work and do it by yourself without asking for other's help."
After saying all that, Ma Rui heavily panted. It had been a long time since she got angry like that. She was yelling at Mo Yuan for at least ten minutes. It made her tired.
After that, she glared at her husband who was trying to stay low. "And you, what about you? You are the only one who knew that the new intern was Luo'er in disguise. How could you approve Luo'er and Xiao Yuan handling this huge project all by themselves? Do you think this is a playground and you are playing scientist, trying to experiment with every single thing?"
Mo Zhen opened his mouth and defended himself, "Dear, it wasn't my intention. But, it was a rare opportunity. Think about the possibilities. If they can handle it together, won't that be great?"
Ma Rui's eyebrows twitched in fury. "Oh, your brain thought about the possibilities. Did your brain think of a solution to what would happen if something were to happen to Luo'er?" She saw her husband opening his mouth and couldn't utter a word. She snorted. "Let me guess, you didn't. if something happens to her, you are both dead! Remember that!"
After being scolded by Ma Rui, Mo Yuan obediently took two-third of her work. He not only had his own work but also her work. Without all these workloads, he couldn't go back to his own house for the next few weeks.
Han Luo did what she could to help him after doing her work. At that time, she thought that it served him right for trying to punish her like that.
But now, she felt a bit of sympathy when she gazed at his tired face. She stroked his rough face. Her fingers hurt feeling the prick of his beard. He didn't find time to shave his face.
'I need a vacation after everything is done," she decided herself.
----------
After a short flight, they arrived in Paris, the romantic city of the world. Mo Yuan yawned and pulled his luggage. Behind him was Han Luo. She was looking at the familiar place with a smile. The nostalgic city reminded her of the two years of her life here.
As they walked toward the exit, someone wearing a black suit moved forward. "Mr. Mo and Miss Han?" his voice was a bit stern but polite.
"We are," Mo Yuan answered for both of them.
The man said, "Welcome to Paris. I hope you had a wonderful journey. I'm Hugo from the Mu Corporation. We have prepared a car for you. We will send you to the hotel first."
Han Luo was delighted to see him. "I know you. You are the Head Bodyguard of the Mu Family. How have you been."
"I'm fine, Miss Han. Thank you for asking. Let me take your luggage." Hugo reached out and took her luggage from her.
Afterward, the driver drove them to the hotel. On the way, Hugo told me, "Please freshen up first and take some rest. The meeting will start after lunch. I will take you to the company after lunch."
"That's wonderful. Please give us the schedule of the next days' meetings. We are not that tired. We would like to start the work as soon as possible," Han Luo spoke. She couldn't rely on Mo Yuan right now when he was trying to take a nap on her shoulder.
Hugo answered, "There is a file on the hotel room you will be staying at. Whatever information you need regarding the next few meetings, everything is in there. If you still need anything else. You have to ask Assistant Ju Long. Right now, he is stuck in traffic. He will directly meet you at the hotel."
"I see," Han Luo was satisfied. After they reached the hotel, they went to their respective rooms. The moment Han Luo stepped into the room, she was attacked by four men.
