Sun Muqing and Jiang Lingxuan were discussing food-related topics when a knock came at the door.
Night Breeze then got up and went to open the door.
As soon as the cargo door opened, Ye Feng saw Luo Sitong standing in front of him with a wry smile, and behind him were four arrogant guards.
Ye Feng knew at a glance that the four guards were definitely not Luo Sitong's subordinates, because they were too arrogant. Whenever they looked at Luo Sitong, they had a condescending look in their eyes.
Moreover, their clothing and appearance were nothing like those of sailors who made a living at sea, so they were even less likely to be Luo Sitong's men.
"What's the matter?" Ye Feng asked.
Just as Luo Sitong was about to answer, one of the guards said arrogantly, "So you're the one Luo Sitong secretly brought onto the ship? We are guards of the Huang family. Our master wants to see you. You and your companions come with us now."
Luo Sitong smiled bitterly and lowered his voice, saying, "To be honest, my ship has long been chartered by Huang Minghai, the head of the Huang family. They have also discovered that I secretly brought you on board. The head of the Huang family is very angry now... You and your two wives should be more respectful to the head of the Huang family when you see him, otherwise I really can't protect you."
So that's how it is.
Jiang Lingxuan and Sun Muqing also overheard the conversation between Ye Feng, Luo Sitong, and the guard.
The two of them then walked over, glaring angrily at Luo Sitong.
"That's so unfair!"
"Exactly! You took so many spirit stones from us, and now this mess has turned out so awkward. You're really despicable!"
Jiang Lingxuan and Sun Muqing joined in the condemnation.
Luo Sitong was visibly embarrassed, but he was thick-skinned and let Jiang Lingxuan and Sun Muqing scold him without uttering a word in return.
The four guards all looked at Sun Muqing and Jiang Lingxuan with surprise.
Because Jiang Lingxuan and Sun Muqing were so beautiful, in their eyes, they were even more beautiful than fairies descended from heaven.
"There were two women?"
"And he's so handsome... Who's this young man? Could he be a scion of a wealthy family who secretly eloped with his two beautiful wives?"
"That's probably true in most cases."
"Damn, if only I could have that kind of luck with women..."
The four guards couldn't help but start whispering among themselves.
Jiang Lingxuan and Sun Muqing overheard their whispers.
Sun Muqing blushed slightly, but Jiang Lingxuan didn't care at all and said bluntly, "Just because that Huang family head wants to see us, does that mean we have to go see him? Let him come here himself!"
Luo Sitong's expression changed drastically.
The guards then began to angrily rebuke them.
"How dare you!"
Do you even know what kind of person our master is?!
"If it weren't for the fact that you're a woman, we would have already made our move!"
"Stop talking nonsense and come with us right now, or don't blame us for being impolite!"
The guards all shouted at them, and each of them placed their hands on the hilts of their swords at their waists.
Jiang Lingxuan sneered repeatedly, saying, "Then why don't you make a move? Why don't you try drawing your swords?"
Ye Feng raised his hand and placed it on Jiang Lingxuan's shoulder, advising, "Since that Huang family head wants to see us, let's go and see him. Anyway, it's not a big deal, there's no need to make a fuss like this."
"Night Breeze, you're just too easy to talk to," Jiang Lingxuan muttered.
"It's not that I'm easy to talk to, but there's no need to fight over such trivial matters," Ye Feng said calmly.
“Alright then, since you’ve put it that way, let’s go see that damned Huang family head,” Jiang Lingxuan said.
Upon hearing Jiang Lingxuan refer to their patriarch as "bullshit," the four guards flew into a rage.
However, since Jiang Lingxuan and Ye Feng had agreed to meet Huang Minghai, they all suppressed their anger and didn't say anything more.
Luo Sitong and four guards led the way, while Ye Feng, along with Jiang Lingxuan and Sun Muqing, followed behind them as they left the warehouse and went up the stairs.
Once on the deck, Jiang Lingxuan and Sun Muqing both felt that the sunlight outside was a bit too bright.
Fortunately, both of them were martial artists and had a very strong ability to adapt, so they adapted in just a short time.
"Hurry up, don't dawdle," the leading guard urged.
Jiang Lingxuan glared and said, "What's the rush? Are you in such a hurry to be reincarnated?"
The guard leader was furious and glared fiercely at Jiang Lingxuan.
Jiang Lingxuan sneered, "You dare glare at me? If it weren't for my husband's sake, I could kill you with a snap of my fingers!"
The guard leader thought Jiang Lingxuan was just bragging and didn't pay any attention to it.
Upon entering the cabin, Jiang Lingxuan and Sun Muqing's expressions became even more dissatisfied.
The conditions in the barn where they lived were so bad, it was practically uninhabitable.
However, the cabin was spotless and everything was in perfect order. Although it couldn't be described as grand and luxurious, it was far better than the hold.
Now, comparing the two, the gap is even more obvious. It would be a miracle if Jiang Lingxuan and Sun Muqing could maintain their composure.
The night wind, however, paid no heed.
He never cared much about material possessions. Let alone a warehouse, even a cave wouldn't bother Ye Feng.
At this moment, Ye Feng had already looked towards Huang Minghai and Huang Yue.
Luo Sitong quickly introduced, "This is Huang Minghai, the head of the Huang family, and this young lady is Huang Yue, the beloved daughter of the Huang family head."
Huang Minghai snorted and said, "Luo Sitong, are those three the guests you secretly brought aboard the ship?"
“That’s right, that’s right.” Luo Sitong nodded repeatedly.
Huang Minghai looked at Ye Feng and his two companions with a cold expression, and then sized them up.
"Who are you? State your names!" Huang Minghai asked arrogantly.
Ye Feng said calmly, "My name is Ye Feng, and these two are my beloved wives, Jiang Lingxuan and Sun Muqing. May I ask what brings Patriarch Huang here?"
"I wouldn't call it a lecture, I just want to see what kind of people you are. If you're the kind of troublemakers I'll have Luo Sitong kick you out immediately," Huang Minghai said bluntly.
"Then why don't you try rushing it yourself?" Jiang Lingxuan scoffed repeatedly.
Huang Minghai was somewhat annoyed and was about to reprimand him sternly.
At this moment, Huang Yue spoke up first: "Don't be angry. My father is just too concerned about me, which is why he is being so cautious. If I weren't on this ship, he would never have taken this seriously."
Hearing Huang Yue's words, Jiang Lingxuan and Sun Muqing's expressions finally improved a little.
Then Huang Yue asked with a smile, "Are you also going to Linghuang Island? Would you mind telling us what you're going there for?"
