Chapter 1233: This Was Her First Time on the Ye Family Private Jet
He Xiyan and Ye Hao boarded the Ye family private jet on the 30th of April. Ye Snr. had purchased this private jet, a Boeing 787 passenger jet that could seat more than 300 passengers. Ye Snr. was a very proud man, so it made sense for him to make such a high-profile purchase. This jet belonged to the Ye family and when it wasn’t in use, they would lease the jet to a local airline and it would be used for international flights. However, the Ye family stopped leasing this jet over the past two years because Ye Hao had to travel overseas so frequently.
Their pilot was a Norweigian named Philip. He was an experienced pilot who had clocked more than 10,000 hours under his belt.
It might seem strange but this was her first time on the Ye family private jet despite being Ye Hao’s ex-wife.
They were a small group on a large plane. Ye Hao had brought along four bodyguards and his assistant on the trip.
The plane took off. He Xiyan didn’t know where Ye Hao intended on bringing her. All she knew was that the plane was headed for Munich.
She sat on a leather chair in the first-class cabin and listened to the soothing piano music through her earphones. It would take 12 hours to fly from Ye City to Germany and if she were to factor in the time difference, she figured that they would arrive in the evening.
She shut her eyes and drifted off into sleep. She didn’t notice that Ye Hao was looking at complicated and complex documents during the entire flight.
She felt that he worked very hard at times because he had to bear the burden of the Ye family’s hopes and constantly work to grow the Ye family’s influence and wealth. There was a saying that it was easier to conquer than to maintain a kingdom. She guessed that he hadn’t been happy over the past few years for he had to be constantly working like a spinning top that could never get any rest.
They arrived at the airport at 5 PM. After she disembarked, she quickly got used to the weather because the weather was very similar to Ye City, including minimal diurnal temperature variation. It was around 15 degrees Celsius at the moment.
However, she still felt a little ill at ease in Germany because of the language barrier. She could only speak Chinese and although she had learned some English, she had forgotten almost all her English. Her speaking skills were terrible, so she could barely communicate. She couldn’t speak a word of German either, so she didn’t understand what these foreigners were saying.
Ye Hao couldn’t speak German either but he was fluent in English.
He Xiyan followed Ye Hao to a limousine after they had dinner at a western restaurant.
It was 7 PM and it was gradually getting dark after the sun had set. The street lamps that lined the roads were all lit.
The streets were much quieter at night than in the day unlike Ye City and there were very few people who walked the streets at night. He Xiyan noticed that this was a city with many historical sites. There were many gothic buildings that looked grand and majestic. The entire city seemed clean and elegant while the houses complemented the lush greenery that lined the streets.
It wasn’t as lively at Ye City but the air was fresh and the entire city seemed to have a calming and relaxing effect.
The limousine brought them to the suburbs after a 30-minute drive. He Xiyan noticed that the tall buildings were now replaced by smaller bungalows and there were fewer cars on the streets.
“Are we reaching?” she asked.
Ye Hao refused to tell her where they were going, so she couldn’t help but try to guess what their destination was.
“It’s right in front,” the driver said as he pointed at a building that seemed to spiral upwards.
She frowned when she saw the words on top of the building, European Observatory.
Were they at an observatory?
