Planes roared overhead in an almost deafening white noise, but Lan was used to such noise. The roaring of the plane passed, but the scene was far from quiet. There was the noise of announcements sounding out through the airport and the bustle of people hurrying to make their flight. At such an early time in the morning one wouldn’t have expected the airport to be so busy, but it was still better then the swarm of crowded people over in Beijing international. At this moment Lan was just elated to step foot back on his home soil after a year over seas on business. Many dream of the fabulous life of being a successful tycoon – all that wealth and power. They hardly note that most of his time was spent travelling without a moment to rest.<br/><br/>Lan made his way to the airport pick up zone outside where his assistant had prepared his car for him. There was just something about the man that caught the attention of eyes. He was handsome yes, but there was a rugged air about him that spoke of worldly experiences. There was even a certain swagger in the way he walked: confident, fluid, and decisive. He was the kind of man that if he wanted something, he would have it. It was not aggaroance that surrounded him. Arrogance would be if someone  overestimated themselves, but Lan… he knew exactly what he was and what he could do.<br/><br/>He reached the front of the airport and found his car waiting for him, his assistant standing nearby to make sure he had everything he needed. It was black Porsche that suited his taste.  His assistant opened the passenger side door so Lan could toss in the bags of gifts he brought back from his trip since both his hands were full. The rest of his luggage would be delivered to his house, but for now Lan wanted to visit his sister’s family. He missed her and the little hormonal brats. Lan hopped into the driver seat and drove off. He never told anyone of his arrival – after all surprises were fun.<br/><br/>It was only a short drive and Lan pulled the call up to the side of the street. It was too early for any of the neighbors to be up it seemed. The man hopped out of his car and went to the passenger side and gathered the bags of gifts. There was a cheerful bounce in his step – distance always makes the heart fonder, even with someone like him. Lan pushed the doorbell and waited for an answer.<br/>
