If we connect the clues together, could it be that the Golden Jade Group will have a significant position within the Mortal Group in the future? And Li Zixia is the key factor in all this?
Otherwise, Lin Fan really can’t figure out why the system wants him to journey to a foreign country to save Li Zixia.
Anyway, let’s rescue Li Zixia first and talk about the rest later.
Lin Fan began planning this trip in his mind. According to Ye Tianyu, Li Zixia is currently missing, so upon arrival at the United Kingdom, he must first find a way to determine Li Zixia’s whereabouts.
As he thought about it, a wave of fatigue hit him. Lin Fan simply closed his eyes, intending to get some sleep. After all, this journey is quite long, over ten hours, and he has many things to do after getting off the plane, so adequate rest before landing is essential.
Lin Fan fell asleep, and when he woke up, he found the cabin was quiet, with almost everyone falling asleep with their heads tilted.
The middle-aged man beside him was gone. However, due to Lin Fan’s alert nature, even while asleep, he could detect movements around him. When Lin Fan was sleeping, the middle-aged man left his seat.
If he went to the bathroom, he’s been gone for quite a long time. Perhaps he’s suffering from some severe constipation.
However, Lin Fan still didn’t pay much attention to this. Thinking about the bathroom made him feel a need to relieve himself.
Thus, Lin Fan left his seat, planning to head to the bathroom.
As Lin Fan was walking towards the bathroom, a foreign woman nearby raised her head and made eye contact with Lin Fan.
This foreign woman was the same one Lin Fan previously encountered in the convenience store—the one who cut in line. Lin Fan knew she was on this flight, yet the foreign woman hadn’t noticed Lin Fan.
Suddenly seeing Lin Fan, the foreign woman instantly showed an expression of delight. While staring at Lin Fan, she reached out and slapped the arm of a burly white man sitting beside her, who was sleeping soundly with his arms crossed.
Awakened by the foreign woman, the burly man opened his eyes and gave the foreign woman a puzzled look.
The foreign woman pointed at Lin Fan, muttering something indiscernible.
The burly man then glanced at Lin Fan, and his expression immediately turned hostile.
There’s no need to guess; this burly man and the foreign woman are in cahoots. The foreign woman likely told the burly man how Lin Fan bullied her in the convenience store, and hence the burly man held a grudge against Lin Fan.
Lin Fan ignored them entirely, continuing on his way straight to the bathroom.
Seeing Lin Fan’s indifferent demeanor, both the foreign woman and the burly man were extremely displeased. This Huaxia kid seems too arrogant—it’s as though he totally disregards them.
The burly man suddenly stood up, seemingly intending to give Lin Fan some trouble.
The foreign woman, instead of stopping him, looked forward to it excitedly.
Turns out she couldn’t get over the convenience store incident, holding onto it like a bone stuck in her throat, feeling indignant and unable to swallow the anger—always thinking about settling the score with Lin Fan.
At the airport, she immediately searched for her boyfriend, who happened to be the burly man beside her, planning to get revenge on Lin Fan. However, the airport was too large, with too many people, and they couldn’t find Lin Fan.
The foreign woman boarded the plane feeling upset, troubled by the thought of not being able to exact revenge, wishing she could punish Lin Fan severely.
Unexpectedly, she saw Lin Fan again on the plane! Therefore, when she saw Lin Fan earlier, she showed a look of delight because she finally had the opportunity to vent her frustration!
Lin Fan reached the bathroom, shut the door, and relieved himself. On aircrafts, the bathroom is equipped with a toilet, and next to the toilet is a washbasin.
While relieving himself, Lin Fan suddenly noticed something off about the washbasin beside him. One of the panels seemed loose, evidently pried open by someone.
With top-level insight, Lin Fan found it hard not to be curious upon noticing something amiss. Quickly finishing his business, he went over and pulled open the loose panel. Inside, he found a package and tore off some tissue, rolled it into a ball, and peeled back the outer wrapping. Inside, astonishingly, was a gun!
What the hell?
Lin Fan was shocked—who would hide a gun on a plane, and what’s the intention?
This flight seems anything but peaceful. Who knows what might happen next?
Lin Fan stared at the gun before him, frowning.
A moment later.
Lin Fan exited the bathroom, closing the door behind him as the loose panel quietly reverted, appearing as if it had never been disturbed.
As Lin Fan stepped out of the bathroom, he was greeted by the sight of the burly man standing at the threshold, the same man who had sat beside the foreign woman earlier.
The burly man glared at Lin Fan, spouting something aggressively, yet with Lin Fan’s poor foreign language skills and the man’s rapid speech, Lin Fan couldn’t understand a word.
Judging by the burly man’s disgruntled expression, it was clearly nothing cordial.
Lin Fan asked, "What do you want?"
Realizing Lin Fan couldn’t understand him, the burly man began speaking in broken Huaxia, "I said, you bullied my girlfriend?"
His Huaxia was even worse than the foreign woman’s, but at least Lin Fan could finally comprehend it.
"Yes, so what?"
Lin Fan responded with a smile, unwilling to explain. Firstly, due to the language barrier, any attempt at clarification would be futile, and undoubtedly the foreign woman embellished her story, portraying him as a villain. Secondly, standing at the bathroom door on a plane, Lin Fan didn’t want to attract too much attention, so he let the man think whatever he pleased.
The burly man didn’t expect Lin Fan to admit so readily, which angered him greatly. He lunged forward, grabbing Lin Fan’s collar, attempting to lift him and teach him a lesson.
Coincidentally, Lin Fan was planning the same—to settle matters physically instead of wasting time arguing, akin to how he handled the foreign woman.
As Lin Fan prepared to knee the burly man, crippling him, a flight attendant approached, noticing the confrontation, and addressed the burly man, "What’s going on? This is a plane—please don’t cause trouble!"
Evidently, the flight attendant perceived the burly man gripping Lin Fan, assuming he intended to bully Lin Fan, whose physique seemed clearly the weaker of the two.
Therefore, she intervened to stop the burly man.
Seeing the flight attendant, the burly man had no choice but to release Lin Fan, knowing if he caused trouble on a plane, he’d face consequences, possibly ending up handcuffed by flight marshals.
"Nothing’s wrong!" the burly man said, glaring at Lin Fan before turning away in frustration, seemingly letting him off the hook for the moment.
In his view, he’s sparing Lin Fan temporarily, perceiving the flight attendant as saving Lin Fan.
In reality, the flight attendant was saving him—had she not intervened, he would likely have suffered.
"Are you alright?" the flight attendant asked Lin Fan, concerned after the burly man left.
This flight attendant was a Huaxia woman, tall and beautiful. Her uniform accentuated her looks, catching the eye. Unfortunately, Lin Fan owned the airline, encountering flight attendants frequently, so he wasn’t particularly impressed. freeωebnovēl.c૦m
"I’m fine, thank you," Lin Fan replied with a faint smile.
