The sorrow on Grand's face almost froze, and a cold glint appeared in his eyes.

More and more people gathered around.

Mu Fang pulled Lin Ziyan away directly.

What bad luck! I ran into this person on my way to Germany.

She hasn't set foot in Germany for many years, also because of Grange.

This hypocrite, with a beast in human form, is still wandering around on cruise ships, trying to deceive young girls.

"Shall we go up to the third floor for a drink?" Mu Fang paused, turned to Lin Ziyan and said.

Almost immediately after they left, Grand got up from the ground and followed them with a gloomy expression.

"Sister Fang, it seems he's followed us," Lin Ziyan whispered.

This person looks like someone you don't want to mess with...

"It's alright, Song Yi and the others are on the third floor, they can deal with this scumbag then." Mu Fang walked slowly, her expression indifferent.

Lin Ziyan raised an eyebrow slightly, but said nothing more.

The first time she saw Sister Fang curse was when Song's mother smashed up the shop. Sister Fang just watched the show and dealt with the other party without uttering a single curse word.

After that, Song's mother never dared to come to Fushi again.

…

Casino on the third floor.

A lot of people had gathered at the bar.

Morgan was busy mixing drinks for customers. After the last competition, Lin Ziyan taught him several ways to mix drinks, and recently more and more customers have been coming to patronize his bar.

"Lin, you're here." Morgan's blue eyes lit up instantly when he saw Lin Ziyan.

Mu Fang ordered a drink, took out a cigarette from her bag, and handed one to Lin Ziyan.

"I drink, but I don't smoke." Lin Ziyan shook her head slightly, then turned to look at the door, where Grange, who had been blocked, was negotiating with the manager.

As soon as they sat down, Lu Yunshen and Song Yi came over with a pile of chips.

Mu Fang's eyes were filled with gloom, and she did not notice Song Yi's approach.

"What's wrong?" Song Yi asked, frowning.

Following Mu Fang's gaze toward the entrance, a foreigner in a gray suit was arguing with the casino manager.

“Song Yi, that’s Grang,” Mu Fang said indifferently.

Song Yishen picked up the strong liquor on the table, took a small sip, and said, "Yun Shen, how about we go practice our skills?"

Lu Yunshen raised an eyebrow and handed the basket of chips to Lin Ziyan.

"You guys can go inside and have some fun. If you lose, it's on me."

After saying that, he and Song Yi walked towards Grang.

Lin Ziyan shook her head, somewhat speechless. Do all men like to challenge each other to fights?

The coldness in Mu Fang's eyes faded, and she said softly, "Let me tell you a story."

"Why does Jiang Lang call you wife?" Lin Ziyan quickly ordered some snacks to go with the drinks.

I never expected that I would get to hear about Fang Jie's gossip while I was getting ready to disembark.

"Grange is German. Judging from his clothes, you would never guess that he's staying in economy class, would you?"

I used to work as a waiter on a cruise ship, and that's where I met a friend. Grand was her boyfriend at the time.

In front of me, Grand always acted like a gentleman and was very considerate towards his girlfriend.

later……"

"So he not only tricked your friend into selling herself to support him, but also tried to mentally control you?" Lin Ziyan's eyes widened after hearing this.

"Mind control?" Mu Fang looked at her suspiciously.

"He keeps making you doubt yourself, making you think he's right, and the people around you also think he's a good person. Just now, he gained the sympathy of the people around him, leaving you with no way to argue back."

"Luckily you didn't go back to Germany with him, otherwise he might have sold you to some shady place. There was no affection in his eyes just now, only greed," Lin Ziyan continued.

Mu Fang drank half a glass of strong liquor before saying, "I know, he's not a good person."

After my friend was forced to jump into the sea, Grand immediately started pursuing me; anyone could see through his intentions.

Lin Ziyan nodded. A teenage girl like her simply couldn't resist the pursuit of a handsome man like Ge Lang who could sweet-talk and feign deep affection at any moment.

Mu Fang smiled bitterly, "He was too good at manipulating people's hearts. Back then, every girl who worked as a waitress on the cruise ship had a story that no one else knew."

"They all lack love, especially favoritism."

Lin Ziyan nodded. Girls like this are the easiest to deceive.

After finishing the strong liquor in her glass, Mu Fang's beautiful eyes became hazy.

Her friend was consciously involved, and Mu Fang still feels terrified when she thinks about it.

Later, she left the cruise ship and worked odd jobs on a cargo ship. She met many people and accumulated enough money and connections before returning to China to develop her career.

"It's all in the past," Mu Fang said calmly, a sudden sense of relief making her feel as if a heavy burden had been lifted from her shoulders.

Her friend's death caused her to blame herself for many years.

Lin Ziyan picked up her wine glass, clinked glasses with her, and said nothing.

Some things are unspeakable and must be buried deep in one's heart.

…

A few days later, the cruise ship entered German waters.

Various large cargo ships are rapidly heading towards different ports at sea.

Lin Ziyan sat in her suite, looking towards the port where the cruise ship was about to dock.

They had a great view, and could vaguely see the entire city.

There aren't many skyscrapers; various buildings stand tall, like guardians protecting the city's safety.

Lu Qiuying glanced at the suitcases in the room and pushed a cup of hot tea toward Lin Ziyan.

After disembarking, the two will separate.

Lin Ziyan picked up her teacup, took a sip, and said with a faint smile, "I'll set up a stall tonight."

Lu Qiuying, "..."

"My handmade suitcases are almost overflowing," Lin Ziyan said with a smile.

She wanted to take them to Lin Jun's school to sell, where the demand should be relatively high.

Lu Qiuying, "You're really going?"

"Your uncle won't object?"

She suddenly stopped, and Mr. Lin really wouldn't object.

Lu Qiuying shook her head and chuckled, "Are you really going to visit those manufacturers?"
