Chapter 932: I Wish You Martial Success

At this stage, in order to track down the murderer who killed the Matsumoto family, Tokyo Airport had strengthened its departure inspections.

However, due to a shortage of manpower, it was not yet possible to implement strict control over all passengers.

Although Su Ruoli held a Chinese passport, because her boarding pass was for Osaka and not for leaving Japan, the staff member did not report it to his superiors.

He just silently recited the name Su Ruoli a few times in his heart, feeling that the name sounded very pleasant, though he couldn't quite say why.

Seeing the other party staring blankly at her passport, Su Ruoli's first thought was whether her identity had been exposed and if the other party had already sensed something.

However, she quickly analyzed it and felt that the possibility of such a thing was not high.

First of all, the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department only knew that the person who wiped out the Matsumoto family was a hidden master from China, but beyond that, they knew nothing.

They did not even know the name of the person who killed the entire Matsumoto family.

Moreover, Japan and China had frequent exchanges; there were many tourists, overseas Chinese, and business elites traveling between the two countries daily. It was impossible for the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department to lock onto her in such a short time.

After a quick analysis in her mind, Su Ruoli could conclude that the staff member before her was most likely just stunned by her appearance, causing him to be a bit slow to react.

Therefore, she asked the staff member with an expressionless face: "Is my passport that good-looking?"

The other party nodded subconsciously: "Very good-looking..."

After saying this, he realized he had accidentally let it slip. He hurriedly handed the passport back to Su Ruoli with both hands and apologized: "Miss Su, I am truly sorry! I didn't mean it!"

Su Ruoli completely ignored his apology and continued to ask with a cold expression: "Then can I pass now?"

"Of course!" The staff member was pressured by Su Ruoli's cold and glamorous aura until he was sweating profusely. He hurriedly stamped her boarding pass and handed it to her respectfully.

Su Ruoli took the boarding pass and turned to leave immediately. The staff member turned his head to look at her back, looking completely infatuated, and couldn't help but sigh and murmur: "This... this is simply the aura of an empress... except in TV dramas and anime, I have never seen a woman with such a powerful aura..."

Although this staff member was still thinking about Su Ruoli, Su Ruoli herself had completely cast him to the back of her mind and arrived next to the machine performing the security check.

This time, all the experts of the Su family were dispersed. Since they couldn't leave from Tokyo, everyone split up and, as tourists, bought tickets for ordinary flights to fly to Osaka individually.

The flight Su Ruoli chose was the 5:40 PM one.

After the flight arrived in Osaka, she would join other Su family subordinates and take a private jet temporarily borrowed from Zhong Hai to return to the country.

At this very moment, Ye Chen also arrived at the VIP security channel.

Before entering the security gate, he turned to the side and said to Ito Nanako beside him: "Nanako, thank you for seeing me off for so long. I am going through security now. You should go back early too."

Ito Nanako nodded reluctantly and said earnestly: "I wish Ye Chen-jun a smooth journey. Remember to report your safety after landing."

"Good!" Ye Chen smiled slightly and said: "You take care of yourself too!"

Ito Nanako said with red eyes: "Thank you for your concern, Ye Chen-jun. I definitely will!"

Ye Chen nodded and could not help but sigh lightly.

This sigh held reluctance, but also relief.

The reluctance was because Ito Nanako was indeed a rare, good girl; one could say that apart from her nationality, there were no flaws to pick.

Parting today, it would certainly be difficult for the two to meet again in the future, so Ye Chen naturally felt reluctant in his heart.

As for the relief, it was mainly because he had pulled out the thorn in his heart by coming to Japan this time.

That thorn was Ito Nanako.

Back then, Ito Nanako insisted on competing against Qin Aoxue.

And Qin Aoxue's strength had advanced by leaps and bounds because of his Rejuvenating Pill.

In the end, Qin Aoxue seriously injured Ito Nanako in the ring; this was the thorn in Ye Chen's heart.

On one hand, he felt sorry for Ito Nanako, and on the other, he admired her character of never admitting defeat and daring to face challenges.

Besides that, he also felt that he had let Ito Nanako down to a certain extent.

Because it was he who had single-handedly pushed Qin Aoxue from a level far below Ito Nanako to a rank far exceeding her.

Now, he had healed her, thus diluting that heartache;

He had saved her life and allowed her strength to advance by leaps and bounds, thus diluting that guilt.

Up to this point, the heartache and guilt had been washed away, and what remained was more of an appreciation for Ito Nanako.

Therefore, Ye Chen smiled knowingly at her, revealing a row of white teeth: "Since that is the case, I will be going now!"

"Good!" Ito Nanako nodded heavily. Her heart was extremely sad, yet she still wore a sweet smile and said: "Ye Chen-jun, I wish you martial success and peace and health!"

"Martial success" (Wuyun Changlong) was an adjective that originated in China and was carried forward in Japan.

Ancient Japan respected martial arts, and the ultimate representation of martial power was the Bushido they revered to the extreme.

Therefore, in Japanese tradition, wishing someone martial success had many meanings; it was not just wishing the other party good luck, but also wishing them to be invincible, ever-victorious, and unstoppable.

It could be said to be the highest form of blessing.

Ye Chen did not expect Ito Nanako to say the words "wish you martial success." He was slightly stunned, then immediately cupped his fists at her with a serious face and said loudly: "Thank you, Miss Nanako. We shall meet again!"

After saying this, he took one last deep look at Nanako, turned around, and entered the security gate.

The moment Ye Chen turned around, Ito Nanako's tears broke through the dam.

She watched Ye Chen's back, tears streaming down her face!

She really wanted to call out "Ye Chen-jun," to make him turn back so she could look at him carefully one more time.

However, she was afraid that when she called him, he would see her face full of tears, and he would overthink, misunderstand, or think she was deliberately letting him see her without all her disguises.

Therefore, she suppressed the urge to call him, only wanting to stand here, watch him disappear through that door, and then turn and leave.

Just then, Ye Chen suddenly couldn't help but subconsciously look back at her.

Just one glance was enough to make Ye Chen feel as if he had been struck by lightning, standing there in a daze.

He had intended to turn back and wave at her as a gesture of courtesy.

But he never expected that, upon looking back, Nanako, who had been smiling just a moment ago, was now crying like a tearful person.

At this moment, Ye Chen felt as if the softest part of his heart had suffered a blow. To summarize this feeling, only two words were needed: heartache!

Ito Nanako also did not expect that Ye Chen would look back at her again.

At this moment, as the eldest daughter of the Ito family and a Yamato Nadeshiko who had received traditional Japanese education since childhood, she finally lost all self-control.

At this moment, she lost all reason, ran toward Ye Chen while crying, threw herself directly into his arms, and held him tightly.

Before Ye Chen could come to his senses, she had already gently stood on her tiptoes and offered her first kiss. Those thin lips, slightly salty and cold from her tears, kissed Ye Chen's lips without hesitation... ===== CHAPTER 933 =====
