"Buzz—"

On the other side, Gan Lan, who had been monitoring Zheng Hao's feed, shook her head knowingly.

"As expected of the [Number One Ship Girl]..."

"Did they anticipate the threat posed by my chips from the start?"

"Alright..."

"Let's make sure [Number Two] and Rowling completely clear their names about my relationship. Maybe if something happens in the future, they can still retain the data until the [Main Brain] recovers and transmits it..."

"Zheng Hao, Zheng Hao... how did you end up running into [Shattered Star]?!"

Gambler fell into deep thought as he stared at the dark projection screen.

......

【Mountains and Seas - Zheng Family】

"Buzz buzz buzz—"

The speedboat, which had been hovering overnight, finally landed in the Zheng family's waters.

Zheng Yunlong received the news early in the morning and waited on the deck of the merchant ship with Jian Chunxue, Mo Yuxuan and others.

"Dad! Mom!"

From a distance, before Zheng Hao even boarded the merchant ship, he waved to Zheng Yunlong and Jian Chunxue.

but!

To his surprise, Mo Yurou's hair instantly turned red, and a smile appeared on her lips. She even greeted Zheng Hao's parents, "Dad! Mom!"

"......"

After shouting this, Zheng Hao gave her a strange look, but didn't see anything wrong with it. The other boatwomen couldn't hold back any longer and joined in the shouting.

"Uncle! Auntie!"

"Uncle Zheng!"

"......"

They weren't as confident as [Shattered Star], and only dared to use the honorific title.

"Hey! Hey!"

My mother, Jian Chunxue, was beaming with joy when she was called that!

Not only are all the ship girls in the distance S-class, but the "Number One Ship Girl" is also his daughter-in-law. Who would dare to dream of such a thing?

"Old Zheng! Look! Look!"

"Isn't your son's fleet far superior to yours?!"

Jian Chunxue patted and shook Zheng Yunlong's shoulder, and Zheng Yunlong nodded helplessly: "Yeah... we've already contracted with the [World's Number One Ship Girl], what else can I compete with?"

"Thud—"

As the rope ladder was lowered from the sky, Zheng Hao was the first to jump back onto the familiar deck of the merchant ship.

"call--"

"I've returned to where the dream began..."

Having just gained a foothold, Zheng Hao wanted to reflect for a moment.

"Zheng Hao? [Newcomer King] Your Excellency? Hello—"

Suddenly!

A teasing voice came from behind him. Zheng Hao turned around and saw a middle-aged man who looked about 70-80% like [Shattered Star], looking at him with great interest.

"you..."

"You...who are you?"

Zheng Hao's reaction speed is extremely fast!

The other person's appearance, coupled with their older looks, made him subconsciously change "you" to "you" instantly, his survival instinct kicking in!

"oh?"

Who do you think I am?

Mo Yuxuan had been scrutinizing his son-in-law, his eyes practically overflowing with admiration.

[Shipbuilding Master], [Rookie of the Year], [Number One in All Battles]...

It's hard to imagine that so many honors would be bestowed upon a young boy.

"Well..."

"You are [Shattered Star]'s father?"

Zheng Hao hesitated before asking, and Mo Yuxuan frowned slightly: "Hmm?"

"Hello!"

"Call me Daddy! Call me Daddy!"

"Are you stupid?!"

[Shattered Star] couldn't stand it any longer and whispered something in Zheng Hao's ear. Zheng Hao jumped and stared blankly at Mo Yuxuan: "Uh... Dad?"

"Why--"

"That's more like it—"

"Zheng Hao, come with me for a moment..."

Satisfied with what he heard, Mo Yuxuan nodded, waved to Zheng Hao, and the two walked towards the stern of the boat.

On the deck, other ship girls landed one after another. When they saw Suixing walk towards Jian Qinghan, affectionately calling her "Mom," and taking her arm, Jian Qinghan was delighted and kept saying "Good!" They all fell silent.

The boss is indeed the boss!

Whether it's her aura or her social skills, she's got it all on full display!

As expected of Zheng Hao's [first ship girl]!

They really can sit still!

"Mom! Can you show me some pictures of Zheng Hao when he was little?"

[Shattered Star] blinked its eyes, pleading with Jian Chunxue. Jian Chunxue's heart melted, and it nodded repeatedly, "Okay! Okay! Let's go, let's go see now!"

"......"

After the two left, a group of [ship girls] and members of the [ship association] were left standing there, dumbfounded.

Zheng Yunlong coughed lightly: "Cough cough cough—"

"Gentlemen, please come to my residence for a chat!"

"I'll have the butler arrange accommodations for everyone right away!"

"Tap tap tap—"

Three groups of people entered the Zheng family compound from three directions. Among the boat girls, apart from Jian Qinghan and Mo Yurou who had previously stayed there, the others looked around curiously, wanting to know everything about Zheng Hao...

......

【Zheng Family - Tail Warehouse】.

The sea breeze was blowing loudly. Mo Yuxuan leaned on the gunwale with both hands, looking at the azure sea without saying a word.

Zheng Hao stood blankly behind him, motionless.

Between a son-in-law and his father-in-law, there are two possibilities: they either get along extremely well or they don't speak to each other at all.

Now, Zheng Hao is the latter.

"Uh... Dad..."

"What brings you here?"

Unable to bear the awkwardness any longer, Zheng Hao took the initiative to speak.
