Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Such confrontational behavior attracted the attention of everyone nearby. All of them looked afraid or surprised. Many people even began to take out their cell phones to record.
Mrs. Hu panicked when she saw the scene in front of her. Her husband had made it very clear that he wanted her to leave with her family in secret. Now, everyone would know. This would completely go against her husband’s wishes.
“Retreat quickly. This is the airport. Are you trying to rebel?”
Mrs. Hu pretended to be very strict and scolded the bodyguards in front of her. “We’re public figures and law-abiding citizens. How can we do such a thing?”
After she was done, Mrs. Hu immediately said to the guard, “I’m really sorry. They’re also bodyguards. It’s their duty to protect my safety. I’ll teach them a lesson when I get back.”
However, the guard could not care less. “I’m warning you, your behavior just now was extremely bad. Now, you have to come with us to be investigated. Not only you, but everyone’s luggage has to be checked.”
These words made Mrs. Hu even more anxious. She knew very well that plans could not keep up with changes. If she continued to delay here, anything that happened in the future would be delayed.
Hence, she took two steps forward and walked in front of the guard. She turned sideways and whispered into his ear, “I’m from the Hu family. We were indeed in the wrong just now. It’s mainly because there’s an urgent matter today. Can you give the Hu family face? If you have anything in the future, you can come to us for help.”
“Your actions are to bribe a public official. If you’re tried in court, it’ll be an additional crime. On account that you’re from the Hu family, I’ll give you face. I pretended not to hear anything just now.”
The guard was not swayed by Mrs. Hu’s words at all. “As long as you follow the rules and complete the inspection, if there’s nothing abnormal, you can leave with your family.”
“Since you can pretend that you didn’t hear anything, can you make an exception and turn a blind eye to this matter? As long as you don’t say anything in the future and I don’t say anything, no one will know.”
Mrs. Hu began her usual method of tempting with benefits. “How much money can you earn a year as a junior police officer? As long as you can make an exception for us this time, I can give you money that you won’t be able to use for the rest of your life. You won’t have to fight for your life anymore.”
“Mrs. Hu, I’m warning you not to do this again. All our actions have a law enforcement record. You’re putting me on the path of crime.”
The guard gave her one last warning. “As I said, you can leave immediately after the investigation. If you don’t accept the investigation, we can only forcefully detain you.”
After saying that, the guard immediately distanced himself from Mrs. Hu.
“Please cooperate with the investigation and follow us to the security office to check your luggage.” Things had already developed to this point. It was obviously impossible to barge in. That would only expose her whereabouts.
As time slowly passed, everyone’s eyes were focused on Mrs. Hu.
Coincidentally, at this moment, the announcement of the flight sounded. The people boarding the plane could already begin to enter the station one after another.
It was this announcement that appeared in time and became a direct boost to Mrs. Hu’s decision.
“No problem. We can be investigated, but I advise you to move quickly.”
Mrs. Hu did not continue to pretend. She put away her kind gaze and replaced it with a serious face that revealed fear. “If our flight is delayed because of you, this responsibility and price are not something any of you can afford. I will make you disappear from this position at the airport.”
“Of course. As long as you have the ability, we’ll wait for you here.”
The guard remained calm in the face of Mrs. Hu’s pressure. “But before that, I hope you can successfully pass the luggage inspection..”
