Chapter 641: Seventh Realm?

Suddenly, Xiao Luo had a stern look on his face, and his dark, smoldering eyes looked dangerous. Suddenly, Xiao Luo had a stern look on his face, and his dark, smoldering eyes looked dangerous.

At that moment, the inspector experienced a chill run through her body, and she felt like a desperate prey that was being pursued by a predator. She could feel the hair on her body stand on ends and sensed that she was close to danger. She instinctively stepped back, staring at Xiao Luo in a confused and fearful state. "What happened?"

A white man in a blue uniform with an employee name tag hanging from a lanyard around his neck had approached them at that point. He was a middle-aged man in his forties. He walked toward the security checkpoint and glanced at the inspector before looking at Xiao Luo. Then, he smiled and said, "Sir, could you tell me what happened? I am in charge of this place, and my name is Davis."

"Your security inspector insulted us, that's what happened!"

An angry man yelled loudly. His wife immediately held him back. She told him not to stir things up.

Davis glanced at that man and then questioned the inspector with a straight face. "Is that true?" he asked.

"No."

The inspector pointed at Xiao Luo and said, "This man cut the queue. I made him go to the back of the line to queue again, but he refused to obey my order. Hence, this commotion, chief."

When everyone standing around the security checkpoint heard that, it surprised them. It was unbelievable that the woman could openly lie to her superior without batting an eyelid. If they had not witnessed what had happened, they would have believed what she had said.

The man who tried to stand up for Xiao Luo was still being held back by his wife. Although he was furious, he swallowed his anger in silence and did not pursue the argument.

"I see, so that's the case. Sir, I am afraid you have to return to the back of the line, please. We don't condone people cutting queue here. I urge you to refrain from doing so again," Davis told Xiao Luo with a smiling face.

What the heck, what a biased chief!

Since the chief of that customs checkpoint was acting unfairly, that meant that Xiao Luo was unlucky. He had to suck it up then!

Everyone who was waiting for clearance at the customs checkpoint frowned and expressed their sympathy for Xiao Luo. They thought that an impartial person-in-charge had finally shown up, but unfortunately, he was also a biased and unfriendly citizen of the Mei Nation.

The inspector smirked and looked at Xiao Luo like a witch.

Xiao Luo had a mirthless smile as he faced the chief of the customs. He said, "As the person-in-charge for this customs checkpoint, your words and action represent your country's image. You did not even bother to investigate this matter, yet you concluded that I had cut the queue based on her word alone. So, is this how you people do things here? You make a judgment with no concrete evidence?"

"Sir, I believe my colleague would not make things difficult for you without good reason. I have to say that it is not unusual for you people to ignore the rules to get your way," Davis replied. He had put on a smile on his face throughout the conversation and spoke to Xiao Luo politely. However, his tone was very aggressive.

Xiao Luo pointed at the closed-circuit television above them and said, "This place is under surveillance. There would be no dispute once you see what has happened if you were to watch the footage of the recorded video."

Davis shook his head and said, "There's no such need. We, the people of the Mei Nation, are civilized and hold ourselves to a higher standard. It is especially true for anyone who works at this customs checkpoint. Since my colleague has pointed out that you have cut the queue, you must have done so. It's redundant to check the CCTV. Sir, please stop your nonsense and get to the back of the line. If you insist on prolonging this commotion, I may have you arrested by the law enforcers."

What the man had said provoked Xiao Luo. If it had been someone else facing such atrocity, that person might have swallowed that. But Xiao Luo would never succumb to such unfairness. It started as a trivial matter, but the other party had been too arrogant. Xiao Luo had to teach them a lesson to let them know that they could not bully anyone as they pleased.

"Brother Luo?"

Suddenly, an excited voice came through the crowd.

Xiao Luo turned around and realized that Zhu Xiaofei and the rest had returned after re-filling the I-94 disembarkation card. Both Zhu Xiaofei and Ding Kai rushed over upon seeing Xiao Luo.

"Brother Luo, my brother, it's you!"

"I've missed you, brother Luo, I've missed you so much!"

Both of them could hardly contain their emotions and greeted Xiao Luo with bear hugs.

"Oh, my gosh, it's hero Luo. I thought Zhu Xiaofei had mistakenly someone else for you," Ding Kai enthused.

It also surprised Wang Ling to see Xiao Luo. It felt surreal just seeing Xiao Luo again, and she said so to Huang Ruoran, who was beside her.

Huang Ruoran had short hair and dressed modestly. Unlike other girls who put on makeup, she was completely natural. Huang Ruoran had become even prettier after a year. Her brows curved slenderly like willow leaves, her eyes were charming like sapphire crystals, her quaint nose was delicate, and her lips were plump and juicy. She had turned into a curvaceous young woman. At that moment, her cheeks were blushing.

She least expected to meet Xiao Luo and was not mentally prepared for it.

Seeing Xiao Luo once again had surprised Huang Ruoran completely. It was so sudden. There was a time when she had camped at the entrance of Luo's Workshop headquarters, in the hope of a chance to just meet with Xiao Luo, even on rainy days. When she finally met the Vice President of Luo's Workshop, he had told her that Xiao Luo had left Jiangcheng.

And then she saw him again at this Mei Nation airport customs checkpoint. Could this be Heaven's arrangement?

Huang Ruoran's heart was racing, and her cheeks were burning up.

Their teacher, Zhong Meili, mumbled, "Didn't Xiao Luo withdraw from school because of his failing grades? How did he end up in Mei Nation?"

What she did not realize was that Xiao Luo had been sent to Huaye University to protect Chuyue. The school's explanation for Xiao Luo's departure was that he had failed his subjects and could not keep up. The teacher had then felt disappointed with his lack of commitment.

"Alright, Xiaofei and Ding Kai. Let's get yourselves cleared before chit-chatting with him," the teacher called out to them.

Xiao Luo pushed both Zhu Xiaofei and Ding Kai away. They had been hugging him like octopuses. Seeing that they were red-eyed and excited to see him again, Xiao Luo felt quite touched. He felt awful that he had been cruel in the past. Although they did not belong to the same world, it would be alright to catch up with them once in a while. Of course, he did not visit them in Jiangcheng because of the Dragon Gang.

Since he needed to fight with the Dragon Gang, it was necessary to isolate himself and not engage in social relationships. Being close to Zhu Xiaofei and the rest would only expose them to danger.
