Risking It All, Drawing the Snake Out of Its Hole

Wen Ya was startled and stopped in her tracks. Upon closer consideration, something seemed odd. Even though the Su City Food Festival was globally renowned, it was currently 3 a.m. At this hour, it wasn't peak travel time, and there should have been taxis available at the airport. But by a stroke of luck, an SUV appeared.

Given the current situation, the driver might have thought that there was some conflict between the two of them, which might not bode well. So, Wen Yao continued to let him hold her hand, treating it as if she were shaking hands with a puppy.

After placing their luggage in the trunk, the driver glanced at their clasped hands through the rearview mirror and asked with a smile, "Where are you two heading?"

"To the Gold Leaf Hotel."

This was the best hotel in Su City. Su City was not as developed as Jiang City, and it had only one decent hotel. However, in Jiang City, it wouldn't even rank as a four-star hotel.
