Zhao Xiaoyue nodded honestly, "It's just my taste!"

Ouch!

Hehehehe!

Realizing what was happening, President Zhao quickly straightened his posture, "Young Master Situ is truly refreshingly handsome, with an extraordinary appearance, tall and elegant, and as good-looking as Pan An!"

Situ Ming covered his lips and chuckled softly, his charm as captivating as the bright moon and gentle breeze.

Sha~

Zhao Xiaoyue quickly swallowed; she felt incredibly thirsty and her mouth was dry.

Hou Taotao confidently handed over the reins to Zhang Xiaomeng, and was then politely invited inside by Wang Biao.

Then Yang Zhuo appeared behind Situ Ming at the right time, and Zhang Xiaomeng was already dazzled by the coast guard uniform that the other man was wearing.

"Hey bro, didn't you say you had a private jet? I have some really advanced equipment for you."

Under Situ Ming's unfriendly gaze, Zhang Xiaomeng approached Zhao Xiaoyue, "Head, head! I'll go get the preparations. Why not take advantage of something free? You and Young Master Situ go in first, I'll come find you later. It's settled then! Come on, Brother Yang!"

Zhao Xiaoyue: ……

It was a bit sudden.

The little girl wore a sky-blue princess dress, her long hair simply tied back; she was indescribably beautiful and adorable.

Young Master Situ's hand was now somewhat out of control, wanting to reach out and grab the other person's hand.

You look especially beautiful today!

This was a word of praise uttered by Situ Ming.

Zhao didn't think this statement was simple either, and proudly said, "I think so too."

Handsome men and beautiful women standing together constantly attract the attention of people at the entrance.

Just by standing next to Situ Ming, Zhao Xiaoyue had already attracted a lot of hatred.

Situ Ming extended his hand with its distinct knuckles. "Could I invite the beautiful and adorable little princess to be my date tonight?"

Then Situ Chacha added in a tea-like tone, "If you mind, then forget it. I'm used to being disliked anyway."

His dejected tone and downcast eyes made him look like a pitiful little thing who had been abandoned.

This sight instantly aroused Zhao Xiaoyue's protective instincts.

"How could I possibly mind? Besides, who would dare to look down on you? You tell me, and I'll smash their head in!"

His little expressions can be so fierce!

But Cha thinks that this look is fucking cute and adorable.

Zhao decisively placed her delicate hand on that beautiful hand, and then, led by Situ Ming, walked into the cruise ship with her head held high.

She'd like to see who dares to look down on her little brother!

Situ Ming was satisfied.

He didn't dare hold the little girl's hand too tightly. In just a few breaths, he guided it through his arm and let her link arms with his.

Her eyes sparkled with a captivating light.

The little girl is easy to coax.

The twenty-story deck was meticulously arranged by seven private butlers.

The banquet was also arranged clearly and in an orderly manner.

Wen Zhengtian, sitting in a wheelchair, was catching up with several old friends.

One of them asked, "Where's Tong Le?"

Wen Zhengtian was also puzzled, "Butler Zhu, do you know where he went?"

Butler Zhu: "They said they went to welcome some guests from the RL Group."

Another person said, "Oh? Brother Wen also invited Master Hou and the others?"

Everyone in the room perked up their ears.

RL Group!

The underground organization that occupies half of the land!

Although those people appear to have a clear distinction from the real gangsters, who knows what they are like in the shadows?

Another person said, "Brother Wen, we're practically comrades-in-arms, but let me give you a friendly reminder: RL and his ilk aren't exactly respectable people, so it's best to keep your distance."

His humble demeanor couldn't hide his arrogance; every word he spoke was for your own good, yet it concealed disdain.

Several others chimed in, "We've all lived through that era; let's not get involved with unimportant people and things!"

Just then, Situ Ming led Zhao Xiaoyue in.

How should I put it?

Anyway, Wen Zhengtian didn't have time to listen to a bunch of old men rambling on.

He's already had a lot of excitement.

The little girl was holding her son's arm, seemingly chatting and laughing. Something's definitely going on here!

I thought it would be very difficult, but I didn't expect that Wen Zhengtian's grandson was quite capable.

Zhao Xiaoyue stepped forward and performed a standard royal princess salute.

"Hello, Grandpa Wen!"

Wen Zhengtian, leaning on his cane, was still a little nervous. "Yes, yes, yes, Xiaoyue is getting more and more beautiful!"

Zhao Xiaoyue replied with a smile, "Thank you, Grandpa Wen. Are you feeling better?"

"Alright, alright, I'm in a good mood today. I'll have the brat accompany you on a tour of the ship. There's also an exhibition scheduled for today, and an auction later on. If you see anything you like, have the brat buy it for you."

That's a grand statement!

Situ Ming stood next to Zhao Xiaoyue, while everyone in the room had their own thoughts.

Seeing their preferred son-in-law bring in a girl who was chatting so intently with Wen Zhengtian, they were all in a great hurry.

Situ Ming felt a pang of sadness, and lowered his head to hide his smile. Just as he composed himself and stepped forward, Wen Zhengtian called out to him.

"Tong Le, go take the little girl to get something good to eat, and then take her to play. We're all old men here, so come over when the banquet starts."

Situ Ming took Zhao Xiaoyue's hand again. "Okay, let's go."

"Then I'll go to Grandpa Wen's place."

Wen Zhengtian waved his hand kindly, "Go on, go on! Let Tong Le take you to play."

The two young people walked away.

"Old Wen, whose daughter is this? I've never seen her before."

Wen Zhengtian gave a vague answer: "She's a classmate of this brat. I don't know which family she's from. The girl came by once or twice when I was in the hospital. Um, Minister Wang, I heard your eldest grandson became a platoon leader?"

The topic was easily veered off course.

Zhao Xiaoyue took a deep breath and then exhaled forcefully, finally regaining her composure.

Despite the attempts to conceal their actions, Situ Ming still noticed them.

"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

He immediately placed his hand on Zhao Xiaoyue's forehead, and the little girl blinked, "It's okay, big brother, I want to eat something delicious."

For guests who haven't boarded yet, please wait another hour before the entrance closes and we set sail.

This period is a time for people from all walks of life to socialize.

Hou Taotao, Chen Jinghuai, Liang Cheng, Geng Qiusheng, and Yu Muqi, like a stream, flow between different social classes.

The highest virtue is like water, which nourishes all things.

They can strike up a conversation with anyone, laugh off anyone's disdain, and chat freely with anyone they meet.

There was no competition, no mockery, disdain, or arrogance in their eyes; all they showed was kindness.

After socializing for a while, the group gathered around a crystal round table.

Holding the red wine, I simply swirl the champagne around without actually drinking it.

When you meet an acquaintance, you simply touch your lips to theirs politely as a return greeting.

Six, eight, nine, and ten only need to nod behind their older brothers.

Almost all the guests had female companions, but these few were the exceptions.

So there's no shortage of women who want to gild their resumes coming over to chat them up.

Old Nine dealt with all of these matters.

Their private lives were not as colorful as Lao Jiu's.

Two of them are still virgins!

After all, given his status, how could his partner be anything less?
