Chapter 359: Escort

~7 min read 1,363 words

Ordinary parents encountering this situation would take the initiative to apologize and order their own child to return the item, but what surprised Xu Tian even more was that the middle-aged woman was also dismissive.

"What are you arguing with a little girl for, you big man? It's just a tablet computer, something worth a few thousand yuan. Do you think we would steal it?"

Xu Tian didn't seem to expect the middle-aged woman to be so arrogant and dismissive. He was stunned for a moment, then his brows furrowed tightly, and he stood up directly to take back the tablet computer in the little girl's hands.

The little girl had originally been very proud and made faces at Xu Tian, but suddenly changed her face after the tablet in her hand was snatched away by Xu Tian. She cried loudly, waving her little fists at Xu Tian while crying, and chanting: "Bad person! You snatched my things! Beat you to death, beat you to death, boo-hoo-hoo..."

Xu Tian looked at the little girl's energetic performance very helplessly. The other party was after all a child; he wouldn't be injured if he was hit twice, and it wouldn't hurt or itch, but the situation in front of him was truly infuriating.

However, before Xu Tian could flare up, the middle-aged woman on the other side took the lead in clamoring: "You say you're such a big man, aren't you ashamed to bully my daughter!"

"Big sister, who exactly is bullying whom?" Xu Tian's voice turned cold, "Your child snatched my things first, and now she's hitting people."

"So what if she hit you a few times? It doesn't hurt. I've never seen a man as uneducated as you, only knowing how to vent your anger on a child!"

"Enough! Watch your child!" At this time, Bai Lu on the side couldn't help but stand up and accuse the middle-aged couple, "If you make trouble again, I won't be polite!"

"Not polite? Let's see how you can be not polite. Do you want to hit someone on the plane?" The middle-aged woman stared, puffed out her chest, looking aggressive, and even took the initiative to lean her face over, clearly certain that Bai Lu wouldn't dare to make a move.

"Bastard! How dare you bully my wife and daughter? I think you don't want to mix anymore!" The man next to the middle-aged woman stood up angrily, waving his fist and rushing toward Bai Lu.

And just at the moment he stood up, the dozen or so Tang family secret guards sitting around stood up in unison. In this not-so-large space, more than ten aggressive secret guards stood up instantly, and the deterrent force was absolutely not to be underestimated.

The man waving his fist didn't seem to expect Bai Lu to have so many helpers. For a moment, his arm stiffened in mid-air, and he didn't make the next move for a long time.

At this time, the movement in the cabin attracted the attention of the flight attendant group. Two young flight attendants with tall figures and sweet smiles walked over to persuade and appease them.

"Dear guests, please pay attention to safety on the plane. Everyone's words and actions concern the safety of all passengers and staff on the plane. Can we resolve any contradictions after we get off the plane?"

That middle-aged couple had already been somewhat unable to step down because of those secret guards of the Tang family. Now seeing someone take the initiative to persuade them, they sat back in their seats sullenly.

"Hmph, I'll let you off this time for the sake of these two beauties." After sitting down, the middle-aged man still stubbornly saved face by retorting.

Of course, Bai Lu and the others were too lazy to argue with such people and didn't even look at the middle-aged man.

"Hmph, how dare you look down on me. When we get to Y Country, you'll have a hard time."

The middle-aged man stared coldly at the direction of Xu Tian and Bai Lu, his eyes revealing a fierce light.

"Blind fools, even daring to offend me. You're going to Y Country, aren't you? Then I'll make sure you never return!"

Xu Tian took back the tablet computer, and the little girl was pulled back to her seat by the middle-aged woman to be appeased. This farce quickly subsided under the persuasion of the flight attendant.

Xu Tian continued to watch the treasure appraisal program and didn't take the dispute just now to heart.

More than four hours later, the plane landed on time at the airport in Pawa, the largest city in the south of Y Country, and Xu Tian's group walked out of the cabin in a mighty force.

Not far behind them, that family of three also walked out unhurriedly. The middle-aged couple stared at Xu Tian's back, a flash of viciousness in their eyes.

"How dare you people use power to bully others. Now that you're on my turf, just wait for death!" They glared fiercely at Xu Tian and the others, turned, and walked toward another exit.

As for Xu Tian, he was thinking about the subsequent private auction and had no intention of arguing with such people. Therefore, he didn't even look at the middle-aged couple and went to the carousel with Bai Lu and the others to collect their luggage.

Walking out of the airport, when the group walked out of the exit, they saw a tall and burly man holding a huge sign in his hand, on which were written the words "Mr. Xu Tian from Huaxia".

Bai Lu saw this man and immediately walked over quickly, followed by Jiang Yan, the manager accompanying the Tang Group this time.

The two of them stood in front of the man and greeted him very warmly, as if they had known each other before. After the man exchanged pleasantries with Bai Lu and Jiang Yan, he walked toward Xu Tian.

"Mr. Xu, I am Lu Qian. I have had a friendship with A Wei for many years. This time, A Wei specifically called to ask me to entertain you for Mr. Xu's trip to Pawa."

"Mr. Lu, hello. We will trouble you to take care of us during our time in Pawa." Xu Tian reached out to the man in front of him.

Before they set off for Y Country, A Wei had told him that someone would receive them after arriving here.

Lu Qian had his own power in Pawa, and both official high-level officials and dark forces had to give him some face. Moreover, he also operated an antique business and knew all the ins and outs of the antique trade clearly.

Y Country itself only had a history of a few hundred years, but because the terrain here was special and it possessed three large-scale ports, coupled with the relatively loose laws and regulations, the black market industry was very developed and had even formed a very mature underground industrial chain.

Therefore, those antiques that couldn't see the light of day would be sent to Pawa City in Y Country to find buyers, some for public auction, and some for secret circulation in the black market.

Even the descendants of those high-ranking officials who invaded Huaxia back then wanted to sell the various treasures looted from Huaxia, and they would also entrust them to auction houses or black market vendors here to handle them.

Don't look at Pawa not being the capital of Y Country, but the various forces in this city were even more complex than in the capital, so the public security here was relatively chaotic. Foreigners without connections who rashly looked for black market transactions here could easily be targeted by dark forces.

Previously, domestic news in Huaxia reported similar news: a wealthy businessman brought a large amount of funds to Pawa to attend an auction, was kidnapped and extorted by dark forces halfway, and in the end, both people and money were lost. Therefore, A Wei specifically contacted Lu Qian in Pawa to ask him to escort Xu Tian. ===== CHAPTER 360 =====
