At 10:45 PM, the airplane from Haicheng arrived in Tokyo, Japan.
Drizzling rain was falling from the sky.
The welcoming party, Heitian Jin, Zhuang Jing, and Yan Hanxiang, embraced warmly.
Heitian Jin, with her typically Japanese height of only 153 centimeters, was almost on tiptoes during the hug.
Xie Xiya captured this rainy night's reunion scene.
"Let's go, get in the car, let's drink!" Heitian Jin exclaimed excitedly.
It was still the same bus that had once taken everyone to Xianggen.
Heitian Jin buckled up: "In the three hours you were on the plane, I've already bought tomorrow's clothes for you all and had them washed at the hotel, ready to wear."
Without even a word of thanks, Yan Hanxiang asked, "How long till we get there?"
"The GPS says nineteen minutes, but if I drive, let's say thirty minutes."
"Gu Ran, you should take the chance to get a Japanese driver's license," Yan Hanxiang instructed.
Gu Ran could tell she was just excitedly saying things off the cuff.
