The people heard the commotion behind them and turned around. Tang He saw Miss Seven and he hurried over. "Miss Seven, the people from Mai'er Fa want to search our starship. We can't let them in. What should we do now?"

As the prominent Beitang family, they didn't want outsiders to intrude in their territory. However, they were on a foreign planet now. They had to consider the consequences of not cooperating with the other party.

"Elder Sister Li, look at them. How unreasonable! They're looking down on you! Hmph," Tang Yingying said angrily, trying to incite anger in Li Yinfei.

Li Yinfei smiled at Tang Yingying's act. Tang Yingying looked at Li Yinfei petulantly. She seemed to be telling her that she was sincere.

"Miss Li, Mai'er Fa has a tighter security policy due to the terrorist attack a week ago. We're inspecting all the starships in the port. This is to ensure your safety too. Please understand." The people from Mai'er Fa saw Li Yinfei and they hurriedly explained to her sincerely.

"I understand. You're working hard for the past few days." Li Yinfei wasn't angry. Instead, she appeared to be very understanding. The people from Mai'er Fa felt comforted. They felt that their idol was a reasonable person.

Tang Yingying's expression dimmed. Was she planning to let them in because this starship didn't belong to her?

Li Yinfei continued, "But this is not my starship. It belongs to my best friend, Miss Tang. I think that Mai'er Fa should respect the opinion of their guests. If the guests feel that there's nothing wrong, they should be responsible for their decision." Li Yinfei appeared apologetic. She looked at the people from Mai'er Fa to show that she couldn't make a decision. Tang Yingying's expression got better.

"Grandpa He, tell them how safe our starship is." Tang Yingying raised her chin arrogantly and ordered Tang He.

"Yes, young miss!" Tang He appeared respectful towards Tang Yingying. He straightened his back and said, "The mainframe of this starship is very advanced. It has the ability to identify faces so it won't allow any outsiders to enter the starship. There will never be any intruders on our ship." He looked at Li Yinfei and continued, "Miss Li said that we should be responsible for our actions, and we will. There's no need for you to worry."

The people from Mai'er Fa were angered when they heard that the owners of this starship didn't allow them to search the ship. The leader of the search them coldly said, "I'm sorry. We received an order to search all suspicious starships. Your starship is on the list too."

The workers of the Tang family's starship glared at the people from Mai'er Fa angrily. The two domain realm masters secretly activated their domain energy and protected Tang Yingying. They were guarding against any sudden attacks from the other party.

The atmosphere got tense again. Tang Yingying shouted angrily, "Mai'er Fa had always been a free planet. It's all a lie! Lie! You're as bad as a monarchy! I must reveal this dark side…"

Li Yinfei frowned when she saw this. Her gaze was sad. She sighed loudly.

The people from Mai'er Fa felt their hearts stopping when Li Yinfei sighed sadly. They felt that they were the evil people. How could they make their goddess sad? The leader softened his tone and said, "We don't want to force you. However, we received an order from our superiors. We must follow the order given. If not, we won't be able to answer to our superiors."

Li Yinfei looked silently at the people from Mai'er Fa with a worried gaze. The people from Mai'er Fa felt their hearts ache. Goosebumps appeared on their bodies. 'Goddess, stop looking at us like that. We can't handle it anymore.'

Some people who were weaker wills lowered their heads. They didn't dare to look at Li Yinfei anymore. Their superiors ordered them to search the starship so they had no choice but to do so. But, they didn't want to trouble their goddess and leave a bad impression on her.

"Cough." Li Yinfei sighed again. She said softly, "I believe that Sister Tang's starship is safe. I know that this is your job too. What a dilemma."

The people from Mai'er Fa heaved a sigh of relief when they knew that their goddess understood their difficulty.

Li Yinfei turned and looked at Tang Yingying. She persuaded her lightly, "Sister, if you don't let them search, there might be bad consequences."

"This is my starship. What right do they have to search my starship?" Tang Yingying was stubborn. She wanted to maintain the dignity of her family.

"Sister, listen to me." Li Yinfei suddenly raised her voice. Li Yinfei had always been gentle and kind. Hence, when she suddenly raised her voice in anger, Tang Yingying regained her senses.

"I'm sorry, I was too impulsive. Please say what you were going to say," Tang Yingying said dejectedly.

"I know that you're angry but we should try to make peace with people whenever we go out." Li Yinfei said calmly, "If you're okay, let me handle this matter. I won't let you suffer."

She emphasized the word 'won't'.

Tang Yingying looked at Li Yinfei intently. She saw the calmness in Li Yinfei's eyes. Tang Yingying nodded slowly. "Okay, Elder Sister Li, I trust you! I'll let you handle everything."

Li Yinfei smiled. "Thank you, little sister."

She turned around and walked towards the people from Mai'er Fa. She said, "I'm sure you saw Miss Tang's attitude. She's willing to make things easy for you. However, you must promise me one thing. If not, I can't answer to Sister Tang."

The people Mai'er Fa saw how Li Yinfei persuaded Tang Yingying. They knew that Li Yinfei was the one who helped them to get the chance to search the ship. Hence, when they heard this, the leader said hurriedly, "Please say it. If we can do it, we'll do it."

"There are some private areas. I hope that you won't enter those places," Li Yinfei said.

The leader appeared hesitant when he heard this. "Miss Li, we must search all the rooms."

"Elder sister, they…" Tang Yingying shouted angrily.

Li Yinfei turned around and raised her hand. Tang Yingying pouted and stopped talking. She was still furious so she glared at the people from Mai'er Fa. The people from Mai'er Fa looked at her expression and felt a little guilty.
