It was just before ten o'clock when Yang Yue, along with the two children Qiu Xi and Hua Linglong, arrived at the airport.
Tang Siran was also there, accompanying the young sisters.
The three girls had only met for a few days, and the total time they spent playing together was perhaps only two days. Now, they were about to head back...
"Tangtang, we're getting ready to leave soon, so you should head back to school. Don't be delayed."
They had both known for a long time that Tang Siran had matters to attend to today.
Since they had already arrived and it wasn't long before they had to depart, it was fine.
"Alright, then you two be careful on your way. Remember to send me a message when you arrive."
Tang Siran didn't insist. She truly had something to do today, something that couldn't be put off.
Qiu Xi nodded, "Okay!"
"We definitely will."
"Good..."
"Then I'll head back to school first... You guys... we... will get together again later."
Her words were disjointed. Tang Siran gave them a tight hug.
"Mmm~ Next time we'll come with Little Snowflake and then take you home~"
"Okay!"
After the hug, Tang Siran waved and walked away.
Qiu Xi and the other girl watched until her back disappeared, then they turned their heads.
"Sigh~ It's a shame we have things to do when we get back, otherwise we could have stayed a bit longer..."
"What are you thinking about!" Qiu Xi playfully hit Hua Linglong as she spoke.
Since they had come out with her and their teacher, they had to return safely with them.
"Keep an eye on your things. I think time is almost up."
"Mmm..."
"Xiao Xi, get ready~"
It was Yang Yue, urging the two children to get ready.
"Coming~ Teacher Yang."
Without further conversation, the two walked over.
Around a quarter to twelve, the three of them finally boarded the plane back home.
...
Evening -
Chongxi City Airport.
Outside, Nan Hua and Xu Xuanming were already waiting.
Qiu Xi's father had insisted on coming, but his family stopped him. In the end, the two young people were sent to pick them up.
"Ah Hua, they should be arriving soon, right?"
They had been waiting for quite some time, and not seeing anyone, Xu Xuanming was starting to get a little anxious.
Nan Hua, standing beside him, was quite calm. "Brother Xuanming, you don't need to worry. Looking at the time, they should be here soon."
"Mmm..."
Not long after they finished chatting, feeling bored, Qiu Xi and the other two emerged.
Knowing that someone was there to pick them up, Qiu Xi scanned the surroundings as soon as she came out.
After a long look, she finally spotted two familiar figures.
"Teacher Yang, my brother and his friend are over there!"
Yang Yue listened and then looked in the direction Qiu Xi pointed.
Two young men. One was somewhat familiar, a celebrity on campus.
However, she knew this because of her student, Qiu Xi.
She had heard from teachers in her department that he was a male student from another department who often came to audit classes.
"Teacher Yang, let's go over there first."
"Alright, let's go."
Her priority was to ensure the student's safety before she could leave herself.
"Brother, Ah Hua!"
"We're out~"
They had quite a bit of luggage, and pulling it along, she and Hua Linglong couldn't walk fast. They could only call out loudly first.
Hearing familiar voices, Nan Hua and Xu Xuanming looked up simultaneously, scanning their surroundings.
After a full sweep, they finally spotted the familiar figures.
"Xi Xi~"
"Xiao Xi!"
As they spoke, the two quickly walked over.
"Brother, Ah Hua, this is the teacher who led our team for this competition, Teacher Yang." Qiu Xi introduced them to the two immediately.
She didn't need to say more about Hua Linglong and the others, as they were all familiar.
"Hello, Teacher Yang."
"Hello, Teacher Yang. Teacher Yang, you've truly worked hard this time." As family, Xu Xuanming's greeting was quite parental.
Yang Yue shook her head, "It's all part of my duty."
"Xiao Xi, since you've met them, I'll head back now. I'll see you at school in a couple of days."
"Teacher, why don't you come back with us? I can take you back to school later?" It felt a bit improper for them to go separately...
"No need, I still have things to take care of. You two just go ahead."
"Alright then, Teacher, be careful on your way."
"Okay, it's all minor matters. You two, get home early, and send me a message when you arrive."
"Okay, goodbye, Teacher~"
