Damn it, I must be seeing things. Didn't Miss go with Second Miss back to the sect? How could she appear in England? Is this woman the long-lost twin sister of Miss? Lin Tian felt a flood of questions filling his head.

There was no time for him to think it over. Regardless of whether she was Miss, it was never a good thing to toss a girl so she's sprawled on her back, so Lin Tian quickly made a move, catching her mid-air with a princess carry.

The actions were smooth and seamless, leaving Lu Bin staring dumbfounded, then filled with admiration. The surrounding travelers weren't scared; instead, they gave Lin Tian a thumbs-up, these foreigners having quite the nerves.

"Lin Tian, what are you doing? Put me down right now, or you'll see what happens!" The woman glared angrily, exasperatedly speaking.

From her tone and the look in her eyes, it was undoubtedly Miss. Lin Tian calmly put down the little girl, innocently saying, "You can't blame me, who told you to suddenly tap my shoulder? I thought you were a female thief."

"You're the thief! Let's see how you explain to the airport police." Miss rolled her eyes at Lin Tian, speaking with annoyed but slightly gleeful satisfaction.

"Explain what? I didn't do anything illegal..." Lin Tian said indifferently, but before he could finish, someone else tapped his shoulder again.

Lin Tian almost performed another shoulder throw but held back, a habit learned from Ning Luoxi. That little girl liked using these moves, simple, crude, yet effective.

He turned around to see two men in police uniforms, watching him warily, with their right hands subtly placed at their waists. From their stance, it was clear they were ready to draw guns. In foreign places like this, police regulations on firearms are much laxer than back home.

"Sir, please show your ID." The police officer said cautiously, using English, of course.

Lin Tian glanced back and saw Miss grinning, clearly enjoying his predicament, a little "payback" for the earlier shoulder throw.

"Sir, please show your ID." The police officer reminded again, his tone getting impatient.

Lin Tian had no choice but to take out his ID. After inspecting it, the officer didn't relax but continued interrogating, "Sir, please explain your actions just now. Why did you take action against this lady?"

The implication being, without a reasonable explanation, they'd treat it as a violent act and arrest you.

Lin Tian shrugged, feigning innocence, and spoke in fluent British English, "Officers, I believe you misunderstood. This lady is my girlfriend. We haven't seen each other for a long time, so we greeted each other uniquely. If my behavior caused any misunderstanding, I apologize."

He spoke neither submissively nor arrogantly, and his English was laced with an archaic charm, with pronunciation even more accurate than the officers'.

When Lin Tian spoke, the police paused, not expecting an Oriental person to speak better English than them. They relaxed slightly but glanced between Lin Tian and Xiao Manxue, implying they don't quite seem like a couple.

"Lin Tian, what nonsense are you spouting? Who's your friend!" Miss glared at Lin Tian, reproaching him, her pretty face slightly reddened.

Lin Tian stepped in front of Miss, and before she realized what was happening, he bent down and kissed her on her rosy lips. Xiao Manxue's eyes widened instantly, instinctively trying to push Lin Tian away.

But before she could push him away, Lin Tian pulled back, wrapping her in his arms, whispering, "Miss, don't move. Otherwise, you'll also be invited to the police station for questioning."

"You... bastard..." Miss ground her teeth, wishing she could tackle Lin Tian and beat him up. But she knew Lin Tian was right, so she stayed still and even cooperated with him.

"Who's telling you to watch the show, and next time use a new word when cursing me. I'm tired of hearing 'bastard'." Lin Tian whispered, then lightly blew into the little girl's ear.

Upon this sudden attack, Xiao Manxue shivered slightly, her fair face turned red like a bashful girl. Even after Lin Tian let go of her, she felt her face burn, bowing her head, not daring to look up.

"Officers, sorry for troubling you," Lin Tian shrugged, smiling slightly.

The officers finally relaxed, smiling, "We wish you and your girlfriend a pleasant journey."

"Thank you!" Lin Tian nodded, smiling.

The officers left, and Miss snapped back, glaring fiercely at Lin Tian before turning around to say, "Secretary Xu, let's go."

Saying this, she hurried towards the airport exit, as if afraid others would see the flush on her face. Lin Tian had already noticed Secretary Xu following behind; his "actions" towards her boss made Secretary Xu want to laugh but unable to do so.

"Secretary Xu, long time no see, you still look as beautiful as ever." Lin Tian said earnestly, spreading his arms for a hug.

Secretary Xu glanced at him, deftly sidestepping past, catching up with her boss. Lin Tian didn't mind, naturally retracting his hand.

"Brother Tian, what should we do?" Rossi asked quietly, having remained silent until now.

"Don't worry, Miss isn't an outsider. Even if she knows our purpose for leaving the country, it doesn't matter. Now let's follow and find out why Miss is in England." Lin Tian said quietly as well, and Rossi nodded in agreement.

Lin Tian turned to face Lu Bin, smiling, "Xiao Bin, shall we change the place for the hotel room we booked?"

Lu Bin glanced at Miss walking ahead, then made an "OK" gesture to Lin Tian, smiling knowingly, "No problem, anything as Mr. Lin wishes."

"Haha, I really like you. How much is Qi Dapeng paying you?" Lin Tian waved, motioning for the two to follow Miss, saying as he walked and laughed.

"A daily rate of one hundred and twenty British Pounds," Lu Bin said honestly.

A daily rate of one hundred and twenty British Pounds, converting to around nine hundred RMB. The labor cost in England was indeed high, no wonder these developed countries build factories in developing nations, both for cheap labor costs and to offload pollution from the factories.

However, Lin Tian generously said, "I'll have Qi Dapeng raise you to two hundred British Pounds."

Lu Bin was delighted and said, "Thank you, Mr. Lin."

Lin Tian could tell this Lu Bin was probably a student working part-time, so he didn't refuse the raise. Lin Tian wasn't acting rich; he had a purpose for giving a raise, ensuring that Lu Bin would be more diligent in his duties.

Nowadays, it's not like a first meeting where your charisma makes someone unconditionally dedicate themselves to work for you; ultimately, the world still revolves around money.
