Only by considering the itinerary can a plan be made to handle the upcoming storm.

...

...

North Sea District, Limen Shisus International Airport.

Sakuragi Yuri, dressed in a black kimono, sat in the VIP lounge, looking at the joint trip handbook in her hand, which was introducing the itinerary for this trip to Yuanyue,

"Let me see the itinerary... Osaka, Nara, Capital City, Kobe, and then off to Kantou?"

Beside her, Sakuragi Hitomi, dressed in a light pink outfit, nodded and said to her mother,

"That's how the school arranged it. I heard a class rented a big bus."

"Hmm..."

Sakuragi Yuri folded the handbook, then smiled,

"Then you might as well part ways with everyone in Capital City, so you don't have to specially send a car to pick you up and take you home."

Although many in the Sakuragi family live in Tokyo, the main family is actually in Capital City.

Hearing this, Sakuragi Hitomi hesitated for a moment and said,

"It's better to send a car to pick us up. I want to go to Kobe before coming back."

Sakuragi Yuri raised an eyebrow and then opened the handbook again to glance at the itinerary.

Seeing the hotel name "Kobe Port Hot Spring·Lotus" mentioned there, she looked at Sakuragi Hitomi and smiled,

"There are hot springs at home too, why insist on going there?"

"No, it's just..."

Sakuragi Hitomi hesitated for a second, pursing her lips,

"The President once said he really likes the sea, so I wanted to take him to see it."

"Oh~"

Sakuragi Yuri opened her fan and smiled with an implication, which made Sakuragi Hitomi blush, puff up her cheeks, and nudged her mother's shoulder.

But as she kept nudging, she suddenly remembered something and asked hesitantly,

"By the way, Mom, when will Nara... be back?"

"Oh, didn't I tell you? The family's review is already approved; she could have come back earlier."

"What? Then she..."

"Oh, I remember. She said she was too tired following you before and took this time to give herself a break. She asked me to hide this from you, and if you asked, just say the review wasn't through yet..."

Sakuragi Yuri blinked, then closed the fan with a smile,

"So, the Nara review isn't through yet, so Hitomi, you just wait a bit~"

"Don't pretend like you didn't say those words before and continue lying without flinching!!"

With her mother riling her up again, the veins on Sakuragi Hitomi's forehead were almost popping, as she breathed heavily and fumed,

"That Nara, I was so worried about her! When she gets back, I'll definitely settle the score with her!"

"If you want to settle scores, maybe you'll have a chance in a few days."

"What?"

Sakuragi Yuri patted her fan, smiling as she said,

"Because she seems to have returned to Ying Country, and it doesn't look like a vacation. It's more like she has some urgent matter to handle."

"..."

Urgent matter?

Right, she has an appointment with that Red-haired Demon in a month...

"Don't worry, I've asked your brother to have someone keep an eye on it, and if there's any news, I'll let you know."

Upon hearing this, Sakuragi Hitomi glanced at her mother, who said this.

Yet she saw her mother's smile becoming less bright, making Hitomi doubt how she had instructed her brother.

"Ah, perfect timing, they're here too!"

In the next second, Sakuragi Yuri's smile bloomed brightly again, waving her hand in that direction.

Turning her head, she saw the expressionless Spencer sitting on an enormous suitcase, using it as if it was a little cart.

And Ye Shiyu, with her long black hair in a ponytail and a massive suitcase in tow with her name "Ye Shiyu" written on it in big letters.

And lastly, someone in disguise with a baseball cap, mask, and sunglasses, looking quite suspicious... a passerby?

"Aunty Sakuragi, thank you for upgrading my seat."

The next second, the disguised person took off her mask and cap to greet her mother, and Sakuragi Hitomi recognized who it was.

It turned out to be Bai Yi.

"It's nothing. You're all members of my study group, and sitting alone in the front of the plane would be lonely...

"And someone helped reimburse the cost, so instead of thanking me, you should thank Spencer."

Sakuragi Yuri had upgraded seats specifically for the study group members, while the rest of the school's reimbursed tickets were in economy class.

Spencer still didn't know what happened or why they were thankful.

Meanwhile, Ye Shiyu, upon hearing this, almost immediately spotted the blind spot:

The study group's seat upgrade...

Which means, Yan Huan would also be upgraded.

But the problem is, where would Yan Huan sit?

Ye Shiyu glanced at her boarding pass and then at Bai Yi's boarding pass beside her.

Her eyes rapidly analyzed and absorbed a large amount of information.

The airline is Ying Country Air All Day Air, the plane model is Sonic 767-300...

If it's an upgrade, then the first row is most likely super economy class, not the first class or business class with individual seats.

Judging by the seat numbers, it should be a 2-1-2 seating arrangement.

Meaning there are two seats on each side of the aisle, with a single seat in the middle.

Her seat is 1K, and Bai Yi's is 1H; they are the two seats by the right window in the first row.

Spencer's is 2D, which is the middle seat in the second row...

"..."

Seeing the seating arrangement for the three of them, Ye Shiyu instantly realized something and sharply looked at the smiling Sakuragi Yuri before her.

This old woman likely arranged for her daughter and Xiao Huan to sit next to each other in 1A and 1C!

And she herself took seat 1D, separating Sakuragi Hitomi, Yan Huan, herself, and Bai Yi.

Isn't this too sneaky!!

You know, the flight from Linmen to Ying Country takes nearly seven hours, which is quite a long time.

This effectively forces a seven-hour alone time for Xiao Huan and Sakuragi Hitomi!!

Although they aren't separated too far from each other and can likely see each other somewhat, Sakuragi Yuri's arrangement at the very start made her intentions abundantly clear.
