"No, no. Nothing like that. But we are going to return the kid back to his family," answered Wang Chao as he wrapped an arm around her waist. He brought her over to one of the booths in the back and sat her down. 

"What are we getting in return?" she asked, turning her attention to Mao Jing. He swallowed hard, trying to figure out how to spin it so that it came out better than, 'We were getting nothing back.'
