Sunday, July 18.

Bei Quan and Wei Fuyuan sat on the flight of American airlines from Fèng Xīngchéng city to Fort Worth International Airport. They were seated in the best first-class compartment.

This time, Bei Quan was going to America under the guise of Dai Bo Qian.

After confirming that Attorney Dai really didn’t want to go to Chen Dafa’s manor to inherit the billion US dollars, Bei Quan gave him an ancient coin as an amulet and promised to help him.

Bei Quan introduced Attorney Dai to the master of the most famous Taoist temple in Fèng Xīngchéng and promised that with the help of the Taoist priest, he would survive the disaster safely.

Of course, to avoid any trouble in the future, Bei Quan specially pulled a small ‘trick’.

He made Dai Bo Qian feel uncomfortable for the next week, not serious, but just inexplicably sluggish and exhausted.

In this way, Attorney Dai had to ask for leave and then spend most of the day sleeping until Bei Quan and Wei Fuyuan settled the mess on the other side of the ocean.

Then, Bei Quan asked the “Special Seven Field Service” to help get the necessary false certificates and planned to leave the country with “Dai Bo Qian’s” passport and air ticket and fly to America.

Wei Fuyuan naturally questioned whether Bei Quan’s plan was unreliable.

In his opinion, although Bei Quan and Dai Bo Qian were similar in height and body stature, their looks were far different. Not to mention their face shape and facial features, there was even a big difference between pupil colour and hair colour.

Even if the other party’s lawyer team was blind, the customs wouldn’t let him leave the country with other people’s certificates, right?

However, after listening to Wei Fuyuan’s worries, Bei Quan just smiled and said nothing.

On the 18th, Bei Quan changed into black clothes, as usual, took his suitcase, black umbrella, and a large suitcase out of the door.

In Wei Fuyuan’s opinion, his boss was still normal, and he didn’t even do any disguise at all to make himself look more like Dai Bo Qian.

——All right, I’ll see how you pass the security check!

Wei Fuyuan complained in his heart.

The two arrived at the airport by car. The staff of American Airlines took them to the VIP room to wait for check-in, and then they had to go through security and customs from the special VIP channel.

Wei Fuyuan had been waiting for Bei Quan to get caught here.

But unexpectedly, the whole process of security inspection and exit was surprisingly smooth.

Neither manual inspection nor machine identification found that Bei Quan was a doppelganger.

The flight took off at 4:55. The entire air trip would take 13 hours and 35 minutes, and it was expected to land at 4:30 local time on the 18th.

After the plane took off, Wei Fuyuan was still wondering why Bei Quan could successfully use Dai Bo Qian’s identity.

“You see, the pronunciation of my name is quite similar to Bo Qian, isn’t it?”

Seeing the puzzled look on his little assistant’s face, Bei Quan joked, “This is probably fate.”

Wei Fuyuan glared at Bei Quan with an expression of ‘don’t try to fool me’.

“All right.”

Bei Quan smiled and pulled Wei Fuyuan to the special washroom in the first class.

They stood in front of the mirror.

Wei Fuyuan: “!”

He was shocked to see Dai Bo Qian standing beside him in the mirror.

Wei Fuyuan couldn’t believe what he was seeing.

He turned his head sharply to confirm who was next to him.

It was Bei Quan, looking at him with a smile.

“This…”

Wei Fuyuan’s gaze switched back and forth between the real person and the mirror.

After three times, he finally confirmed that if he looked directly at the person with his own eyes, what he saw was Bei Quan, but if he looked in a mirror, it was completely Dai Bo Qian’s appearance.

“What the hell is going on…”

“It’s just a cover up.” Bei Quan explained, “From the time I go out today until we return home, everyone except you will see ‘Me’ as Dai Bo Qian.”

He paused and went on, “Of course, not just the naked eye, but also mirrors, cameras, or video cameras.”

Wei Fuyuan, “Then why do I see you as usual?”

Bei Quan replied, “Of course it’s because I used a spell on you in advance so that you won’t be confused by this cover-up technique.”

Bei Quan’s attitude was too natural, and Wei Fuyuan felt that he could not refute it.

However, Young Master Wei was still unconvinced and whispered, “You can tell me in advance when you do these things next time…”

At seven o’clock in the evening, the stewardess brought dinner.

The first-class meal list on international flights was quite rich. Unfortunately, Bei Quan had no appetite, so he only ate a bowl of soup, seafood pasta, and a glass of sparkling water.

After the pasta was served, Bei Quan looked at his plate, forked two prawns, and put them on Wei Fuyuan’s plate.

“Come on, here’s the shrimp.”

Wei Fuyuan obviously had a much better appetite than Bei Quan.

He ordered everything from appetisers to sweets before deciding on the pan-fried scallops with smoked salmon salad.

“What’s the matter?”

Wei Fuyuan stopped eating and frowned,

“This is really not all in my head. You seem to have a bad appetite recently.”

Bei Quan smiled and said casually:

“Maybe because it’s hot… ”

With that, he rolled up a small ball of pasta with a fork and stuffed it into his mouth.

The white sauce was very rich. With rich flavours of cardamom powder and bay leaves, but Bei Quan only felt that the taste was very greasy.

However, in order not to make Wei Fuyuan suspicious, he reluctantly ate a few mouthfuls and drank the small bowl of thick soup.

When the stewardess came to collect the plate, she noticed that Bei Quan didn’t finish the pasta, and quickly asked if the meal was not to his taste. Do they need to prepare something else for him?

Bei Quan continued to make excuses about how the summer was putting him under weather.

After dinner, Bei Quan went to have a simple wash. When he came back, he had already changed into his pajamas and put down his seat. It seemed that he was about to go to bed.

“It’s only eight!” Wei Fuyuan was shocked, “Can you really sleep now?”

Bei Quan opened the quilt and covered himself, “Leave me alone and let me listen to the music quietly for a while.”

Then he stopped talking to Wei Fuyuan, put on his headphones, and curled up on the bed.

Bei Quan was not sleepy, but he felt very tired.

It was not so easy to heal the hidden wounds left behind during the fight with Gu wolves.

Gu wolf was a servant refined by Gu Shu. They had a strong Yin resentment that was particularly concentrated in their teeth and claws.

If an ordinary person was injured by its claws and teeth, it would immediately invade the body with Yin Qi and the person would die in unbearable, severe agony that pierces through even the bone marrow.

Although Bei Quan had a special constitution, as a man of cultivation, and the “poison” of Gu wolf was not fatal to him, it still took a long time to extract the Yin Qi from his body completely.

Bei Quan estimated that he was currently at 30% of the combat effectiveness before he was injured.

But at this time, they met a difficult case.

Bei Quan closed his eyes and pretended to sleep. In fact, he was very anxious.

He and Zhu Ling have confirmed that the ghost was not Dai Bo Qian or someone close to him. The only possibility was, there must be something wrong with Dai Bo Qian’s foster family when he stayed as a child.

So now, Bei Quan had to go to the other side of the ocean with Wei Fuyuan, who had no power except the light of merit.

There, they wouldn’t even have foreign aid.

……

When Bei Quan was thinking about what to do when he arrived in America, he felt the light on his head dim. Then a hand stretched out and gently pulled the quilt for him.

Bei Quan turned over and looked at Wei Fuyuan.

At this time, the distance between the two was quite close. As soon as Wei Fuyuan lowered his head, they could breathe and smell each other.

With such an ambiguous posture and too close proximity, Wei Fuyuan inevitably thought of what happened when they were in Xuanmen village.

——At that time, I… Kissed him.

When the words “kiss him” came to mind, Wei Fuyuan bounced like he was electrocuted. The whole person bounced up, and the blush spread from his forehead to the root of his neck.

“I, I just want to make sure you were asleep!”

Wei Fuyuan said with a steam around his neck.

——That was not a kiss, that was not a kiss!

——It was just artificial respiration!

He constantly warned himself not to be crooked in his heart, but he couldn’t help glancing at Bei Quan’s face.

After being covered in the quilt for a while, Bei Quan’s face colour seemed to be a little more ruddy than usual. The chestnut soft hair was spread on the pillow, inexplicably showing a kind of exciting colour.

——What are you thinking? He’s just my boss!!

Wei Fuyuan reached under the table and pinched his thigh.

Bei Quan took off his headphones and turned around to see that Wei Fuyuan had put down the back of his chair.

The two chairs were put together, and after removing the armrest, it looked exactly like a double bed.

“Didn’t you say it was still early?”

Bei Quan asked, “Why, are you going to sleep?”

“I can’t find the movie I wanted to see. So I decided to lie down and play with my mobile phone for a while.”

Wei Fuyuan answered and lied down.

In a sense, it was the first time they had slept in the same bed.

Young Master Wei repeatedly reminded himself not to think crooked thoughts, but his two earlobes were still red and looked as if they were going to start dripping blood at any moment.

Bei Quan, “Oh.”

Then he put on his headphones.

Wei Fuyuan: “…”

After waiting for half a minute, he found that Bei Quan really had no intention to tell him anything, but he couldn’t just lie down again.

Wei Fuyuan turned over to face Bei Quan, raised his hand, and took off his earphones.

“Bei Quan.”

Wei Fuyuan took a deep breath, and his expression suddenly became serious.

“I know you’re hiding something from me.”

After all, Wei Fuyuan was not really naive. Sometimes he didn’t ask questions, but it didn’t mean he really believed all Bei Quan’s nonsense.

Bei Quan also collected the casual expression on his face.

“I don’t know why you won’t tell me the truth.”

Wei Fuyuan said word by word, “But sometimes, I hope you can trust me more, okay?”
