Power and Wealth

Afternoon.

Local airport.

Dong Xuebing entered the airport after bidding goodbye to the female soldier. He checked in with his identification card and got his boarding pass quickly. Xie Huilan's Second Uncle had prepared everything for him. However, he encountered some problems with Little Qianqian's identification.

"Sir, can I have the baby's identification?"

"I said I did not have it with me. I had forgotten to bring it. Can you just let us off this time?"

"Sorry. The baby is not allowed to board if you cannot produce her identification."

"Can't you be flexible? My child was kidnapped, and I found her in another city. How am I going to produce her identification?"

"Sorry, Sir. These are our regulations. We cannot process her boarding without her birth certificate."

"What do you want me to do? Can you call your supervisor out?"

The airport staff ignored Dong Xuebing and started processing the next person's boarding.

The place was about to depart, and Dong Xuebing was getting frustrated. He called Huilan's father Beijing City Party Secretary Xie Guobang.

"Hello, Dad? I am Xiao Dong."

"Have you got off the ship?"

"Yes. I am at the airport now."

"Come back now. Huilan and your Mum are worried about you."

"Dad, there's a problem. I don't have the baby's birth certificate, and the airport refused to let her board."

"Birth certificate? Alright. Wait a while. I will speak to them now."

"Sorry to trouble you."

About ten minutes after hanging up, the top Leader of the airport and other leaders rushed toward the check-in counters. "Who is Mr. Dong? Which one of you is Mr. Dong?"

"I am." Dong Xuebing stepped forward.

The airport's top Leader saw Dong Xuebing carrying a baby and apologized politely. "I am sorry for the delay. Let me walk you to your flight."

Dong Xuebing replied. "Thank you."

"Don't mention it." The Leader replied and turned to the airport staff. "What are you waiting for?! Prepare the paperwork now!"

The airport staff was shocked when he saw all the airport's top leaders and looked at Dong Xuebing. He dared not ask anything and prepared the boarding pass for Qianqian. He thought to himself. Who is this guy? Why are all the leaders so concerned? You can't judge a book by its cover. This guy looks so ordinary, and he can call all the Leaders over with a phone call.

The airport's Leaders accompanied Dong Xuebing to his flight through the VIP special access. He skipped the security checks and got an upgrade from economy to first class. The airport's Leaders had received a call from a Politburo member's secretary, and they knew how important Dong Xuebing was.

Dong Xuebing exchanged some pleasantries with the Leaders before he boarded his flight.

Dong Xuebing carried Little Qianqian to his first-class seat and closed his eyes to rest. She had fallen asleep in his arms.

The flight departed.

The moment the plane took off, Qianqian started crying because of the air pressure.

Dong Xuebing started to cuddle and calm her.

Little Qianqian calmed down after a while and went back to sleep.

One hour….

Three hours….

Five hours….

The plane reached Beijing airport around 5 pm.

Dong Xuebing stretched lazily and looked at Beijing's sky. Haha…. I am back!

It felt good to return home.

Dong Xuebing can finally spend time with his family.

Dong Xuebing did not get off the plane immediately. He took out the milk bottle he had prepared earlier and fed Qianqian. He feared the narrow passageway would be too crowded and waited until all the first-class passengers left. He did not have luggage, and he got off the plane with Little Qianqian.

The airport was quite empty.

When Dong Xuebing was about to get a taxi to go home, a few familiar faces appeared in front of him.

Xie Huilan, Qu Yunxuan, Luan Xiaoping, and Qu Yunxuan's parents appeared. They were waiting for him at the airport's exit.

Dong Xuebing saw them and quickly walked over. "Mum, why are you all here?"

Luan Xiaoping walked over and snatched Little Qianqian from Dong Xuebing's arms. "My precious granddaughter…. Are you hurt? You scared Grandma to death…."

Little Qianqian was happy and tried to grab Luan Xiaoping's face.

Luan Xiaoping smiled. "Good girl…. Did you miss me?"

Qu Yunxuan's parents got closer and took turns carrying Qianqian before giving her to Qu Yunxuan. Qu Yunxuan's injuries almost healed, and she cried joyfully when she carried Qianqian in her arms.

"Mummy was so worried for you…."

Little Qianqian started crying when she saw her mother crying.

Qu Yunxuan quickly pacifies her. "Don't cry…. We are going home. Everything is alright now."

Xie Huilan also went up to her goddaughter and pinched her nose lightly. "Did you miss your godmother? Huh?"

"Ooh… aah…."

"Oh, you miss me?! Haha…."

"Aah… aah…."

"Haha…. Good girl."

Everyone crowded around Qianqian and forgot about Dong Xuebing. Dong Xuebing coughed loudly to get their attention.

Xie Huilan seemed to be trying to spite him. She smiled. "Oh, you are here."

Dong Xuebing almost fainted. I rescued and brought the baby back! How can I not be here?

Qu Yunxuan treated Dong Xuebing better. She passed her daughter to Xie Huilan and went up to him. She stroked his arms. "Are you hurt?"

Dong Xuebing smiled. "It's only a few pirates. How can they hurt me?"

Qu Yunxuan gave Dong Xuebing a stare. "Stop being a showoff. Who asked you to go?"

Qu Yunxuan's father also reprimanded Dong Xuebing. "Xiao Bing, you should tell us that you are going to Fujian province to save Qianqian. Do you know how worried we are?"

Dong Xuebing replied. "I caused this trouble, and I got to bring my daughter back myself. If I cannot bring her back, I would be too ashamed to return home." He said he would never return home if he could not bring Qianqian back.

Xie Huilan laughed. "This brat's skin is thick. I heard more than twenty pirates could not even touch him. He has his own ideas and doesn't need anyone to worry for him."

Dong Xuebing was speechless. Can't you all show a bit of concern for me?

Luan Xiaoping finally said. "It's good to be back. Let's go home first."

Everyone nodded and walked out of the airport. Qianqian was still the center of attention, and everyone was around her. Dong Xuebing had to follow behind them.

Outside of the airport.

A Land Rover was parked outside.

Xie Huilan got into the driver's seat, and the rest got into the car.

The Land Rover had five seats and was spacious enough for six people and a baby. It was full when Dong Xuebing was about to board.

Everyone noticed this problem and looked at Dong Xuebing.

Dong Xuebing cleared his throat. "Errr…. I will take a taxi."

No one cared about Dong Xuebing, and Luan Xiaoping closed the door immediately.

Dong Xuebing felt his status in his family had gone down drastically. He knew his mother, Xie Huilan and Qu Yunxuan were angry with him for leaving suddenly and risking his life against those pirates. That was the reason for them treating him this way. Never mind. Go ahead and be angry with me. I had created this mess, and I deserved it.

Dong Xuebing got into a taxi and asked the driver to follow the Land Rover.

The Land Rover entered a villa estate around the evening. It was the villa Dong Xuebing bought for his mother.

Dong Xuebing paid the fare and heard Qianqian's cries when he got out of the taxi. Luan Xiaoping and the rest were crowding and trying to soothe her.

Dong Xuebing walked over quickly.

"What happened?" Dong Xuebing asked.

"She kept crying nonstop." Qu Yunxuan rocked Qianqian in her arms. "Stop crying…."

"Let me try." Xie Huilan carried Qianqian and played with her. But she continued crying.

"Let me do it." Dong Xuebing took Qianqian from Huilan and rubbed his stubble against her.

Little Qianqian saw it was her father and stopped crying.

Dong Xuebing lifted Qianqian above his head. "Let's fly…."

Little Qianqian giggled loudly and waved her arms wildly.

Dong Xuebing laughed. "Oh, you missed Daddy?"

Everyone looked at Dong Xuebing weirdly.

Dong Xuebing felt proud. After spending the past few days with her, he knew how to please his daughter.

Haha…. You all finally noticed how important I am.
