Shang Jin was still using the translator when she heard the little boy praise her eyes and call her a kind person, which made her very happy. âLittle guy, donât worry, we will definitely help you,â she assured.
Tan Rouâs conversation with him irritated two policemen, who said fiercely, âStop talking nonsense and donât think about planning an escape. As long as the two of us are here, you will not be able to run away.â
Shang Jin disliked the way they were speaking, so she reminded them, âIâm terribly sorry, but we are not criminals; we are just passersby walking with you, and without a valid reason, you canât just arrest us.â
The two officers didnât want to create a diplomatic incident, so they chose to stay silent.
Shang Jin, however, was not about to let them off the hook, mumbling in her native language, âA couple of cowards, only know how to bully a weak child. Why donât they try bullying those male passengers? Just today, a big and burly man stole something, would they dare to slap him?â
Tan Rou silently listened to Shang Jin complaining and did not stop her. The policemen in front couldnât understand Shang Jin and didnât dare to interrupt her rashly; thus, they had no idea they were being scolded all along the way.
The little boy was smart; hearing Shang Jin speaking loudly, he asked, âIs this big sister speaking up for me? Thank you!â
Tan Rou found the child extremely intelligent and noted his strong observational skills, sensing their intention to help him solely from their behavior and tone. Such keen observation was not something ordinary people possessed.
âI want to help him,â Tan Rou said to Shang Jin. âIf I donât help this child today, I might regret it for the rest of my life.â
Shang Jin stopped her grumbling and asked, âWhy do you feel that way?â
âHeâs very smart,â Tan Rou said. âIf he canât find his parents, I might consider taking him back to our country, sponsor his education, and give him the best schooling.â
âHuh?â Shang Jin didnât understand why Tan Rou would think that far. âTan Rou, youâre not confused by anger, are you? We still have to go to work, how can we take this child with us?â
âHe must be from J country, letâs try to take him to J country first, then help him look for his family,â Tan Rou suggested. âIf he canât find his family, then I will take him to our country and do my best to educate him, so he can achieve something great in the future.â
âAnyway, you have money, you decide,â Shang Jin reminded. âBut before you take this child back, you need to discuss it with Mr. Zhuang and see if he agrees.â
Tan Rou nodded, âYes, I will discuss it with him.â
After crossing most of the airport, Tan Rou and her group finally met the lady who had lost her items in the waiting room. The lady was somewhat plump. Next to her were many boxes of desserts, and a kind of red bread that looked very much like the bread the boy had stolenâexcept hers was fluffy, while the one in the boyâs arms was flat.
âOh, youâve caught this little thief, thatâs really great!â the chubby lady exclaimed, clapping her hands dramatically. âThis child is too bad; he actually stole my most beloved ruby, and it ruined my afternoon tea, which is just too hateful!â
Since she was using a global language, Shang Jin could understand her, and after she mentioned her afternoon tea, Shang Jin couldnât help but sneer, âYouâre already so fat, canât you eat less dessert?â
Tan Rou looked at Shang Jin, then cautioned, âDonât use our native language here to avoid being understood by others.â
Shang Jin immediately covered her mouth and nodded, âYouâre right, when speaking ill of someone, never use your own countryâs language.â
âWhatâs your name? Where are you from? And where are your parents?â the chubby lady fired off a series of questions.
However, the little boy didnât understand her, so he didnât respond.
The lady was very annoyed, âIâm talking to you, canât you hear me?â
Tan Rou intervened, âYoung friend, sheâs asking your name. Where are you from? Where are your parents?â
Understanding the question, the little boy replied, âMy name is Agila, I come from J country, my mother is Princess Samiyi of J country.â
