Chapter 1026: Chapter 1009: Hair Not Messed Up Chapter 1026: Chapter 1009: Hair Not Messed Up Although it may seem a bit vain for someone older to pretend to be young, she wasn’t actually old.
When she dressed up, she truly looked like a college student.
Besides, if she hadn’t moved to the head office here, she might still be studying for her graduate degree at Qing University, being a student herself.
“Let’s go,” Gu Ning picked up a suitcase, while Tang Yuxin only carried a small backpack on her back.
She touched the small needle pack clipped to her waist, which couldn’t be carried on and had to be checked in.
It was her necessary tool for making a living, something she took wherever she went.
So, taking a flight was always a hassle due to strict security checks; dangerous items were prohibited, and needles were classified as such.
She removed her needle pack from her waist.
Gu Ning couldn’t help but chuckle, “Are you really taking that with you?”
Of course.
Tang Yuxin had been carrying it outside for more than a decade, and it was worn from frequent use, proof of how much she relied on it—almost as constant as eating, sleeping, and bathing.
Gu Ning opened the suitcase, carefully placing Tang Yuxin’s needle pack inside, ensuring it was in a secure and visible location, easily spotted upon opening the luggage.
Their flight was at ten in the morning, it was only a little past eight now, leaving them two hours to spare.
There was no rush since the airport was very close to where they lived, and there was no need to hurry over.

In fact, they could just walk there without taking a car.
“Let’s head out,” Gu Ning extended his hand to Tang Yuxin.
It wasn’t just Tang Yuxin who hadn’t had a proper outing in years; even he felt an unnameable excitement and anticipation for the holiday she so looked forward to.
Tang Yuxin placed her hand in Gu Ning’s, and they walked slowly, taking the opportunity to admire the familiar, yet ever-changing scenery along the way—a place that changed annually and had been doing so for years.
The changes in Beijing were indeed significant.
For those who had witnessed its development, if not for the old photographs, they might have forgotten what the old Beijing looked like.
Perhaps the most memorable for them was the road to the head office.
Tang Yuxin remembered the first time Gu Ning brought her over, the area was almost deserted.
But now, there were schools, shopping malls, and several high-rise residential buildings, with an increasing population to match.
The two walked for half an hour and had already reached the airport.
Gu Ning went to check in their luggage, while Tang Yuxin found a spot to play with her phone.
She wore a hat large enough to cover half of her face, not because she was a celebrity worried about recognition, but simply because the large brim was practical for shading from the sun.
After checking in the luggage and exchanging their boarding passes, Gu Ning returned to sit in front of Tang Yuxin, holding a cup of fresh juice in his hand.
“Drink this first.”
He handed the juice to Tang Yuxin, who leaned against him and began to drink.
The taste was nice, a combination of apple and pear, mixing sour and sweet.
As she sipped the juice, she also took their boarding passes from Gu Ning’s hand.
He had booked business class seats, and their flight would take about five hours—a long flight indeed.
As for why they weren’t going abroad, although Tang Yuxin had initially considered it, issues like language barriers and unfamiliarity with the location led to concerns about getting lost and wasting time.

Therefore, they eventually chose Yun City, a renowned domestic tourism spot.
Their visit coincided with the off-season for travel there, so it was less crowded.
Besides, they didn’t plan on staying in hotels and had ample time to enjoy their half-month holiday leisurely, waking up naturally before exploring at their own pace.
The main reason was that Gu Ning had been there several times, so there was no need to worry about finding their way around.
Tang Yuxin passed the juice back to Gu Ning and pulled her hat down a bit before leaning on him.
“I’m going to take a nap first.”
“Alright, sleep well,” Gu Ning draped his coat over her to keep her from catching cold, as the airport’s air conditioning was quite strong.
Tang Yuxin dozed off, vaguely hearing conversations and footsteps around her.
When she opened her eyes, the coat had slipped off.
A hand reached out and deftly caught the edge of the fabric.
“What’s up, is it not time yet?”
Yawning, Tang Yuxin grabbed Gu Ning’s wrist to check the time, “There’s still half an hour left.”
“Yes,” Gu Ning stroked her head, tidying her slightly disheveled hair.
“Is it messy?” Tang Yuxin touched her hair self-consciously.
Gu Ning playfully tugged at a strand of her hair.
“Don’t worry, your hair is intact, no blood spilled, and your hairstyle looks good.”
Still unconvinced, Tang Yuxin stood up and headed to the restroom to check her appearance.
True to Gu Ning’s words, her hairstyle was unblemished and looked great.
Before arriving, she had visited a hair salon to have a stylish hairstyle crafted carefully.
She examined herself in the mirror for a while and confirmed everything looked perfect.
Her face was quite photogenic, something others noticed about her on television before she realized how good she actually looked on screen.
She splashed her face with water, then dried it off with a tissue from her bag.
After adjusting her hair once again, she returned to sit beside Gu Ning.
Shortly after they sat down, the announcement on the PA system informed them that their plane was about to arrive at the airport, which meant it was boarding time.
“Let’s go,” Gu Ning stood up and extended his hand.
He carried a large bag filled with essentials, offering his other hand to Tang Yuxin.
As for Tang Yuxin, she had it easy, requiring nothing more than herself for the trip.
Even her small purse was now slung across Gu Ning’s shoulder.
A man should carry the bags and pay the bills when out and about with a woman, who is there simply to shop and spend money.
With Tang Yuxin buried in her phone, she didn’t need to watch the path.
She just let Gu Ning lead the way.
