Describing her two or three hundred billion in assets as a pittance, Jian Yu couldn't help but sized up Lu Jiao, "You talk as if you yourself are very wealthy."
Lu Jiao's gaze became unusually unfocused.
His net worth is indeed not as high as Jian Yu's.
Jian Yu, "What trouble did you encounter before?"
Lu Jiao: "It's nothing, just some minor issues."
Lu Jiao was unwilling to talk about it, and Jian Yu wouldn't press him for details.
That night, huge waves rose on the sea.
Even lying in the guest room, Jian Yu could feel the ship rocking violently.
Jian Yu was somewhat worried and sent a WeChat message to Lu Jiao to ask.
As a result, the phone had no signal.
Jian Yu had no choice but to put on his coat and go out to take a look.
As soon as I entered the corridor, I encountered the night patrolman.
The night watchman thought Jian Yu was in trouble, but when he learned that she was only worried that the wind and waves would affect the boat, he laughed and said, "Don't worry, these little waves will be fine. Go back to sleep!"
"Is this level of shaking a minor problem?"
"Of course. When faced with a major storm, everyone is already on high alert and fully prepared."
All preparations refer to escape.
Seeing that he looked relaxed and not worried at all, Jian Yu had no choice but to return to his room with some doubt.
A moment later, Lu Jiao knocked on the door and came in.
"......"
Jian Yu: "Next time, could you knock on the door and wait for me to open it?"
Lu Jiao: "Oh."
Jian Yu asked, "What brings you here?"
Lu Jiao, "I heard you're worried that the wind and waves might affect your safety."
Jian Yu nodded.
Lu Jiao: "Don't worry, nothing will happen."
Jian Yu was really worried.
"Why are you so worried? Never mind, I'll go get you a life jacket and put it by your bedside. You'll feel more at ease sleeping if you see it, right?"
Jian Yu received the life jacket, but her mood didn't improve. "Are you sure you're okay?"
"What... problem could there be?"
Lu Jiao didn't finish his sentence because Jian Yu vomited all over him.
He yelled and backed away, "What's wrong with you?"
In short, I'm just speechless.
Lu Jiao exclaimed, "Are you seasick?"
seasick?
Jian Yu suddenly realized why she felt the boat was rocking so badly that she even had difficulty standing.
Lu Jiao was extremely annoyed. He had no idea that Jian Yu rarely traveled by boat and was simply unable to adapt to long-distance ship life all at once.
His boat is full of excellent swimmers who are used to all kinds of life on board, and now they can't even find a single motion sickness pill.
The ship will be docked in about ten hours.
I glanced at Jian Yu and noticed that her face was getting paler and paler.
Are you alright?
"not good."
Jian Yu vomited into the toilet until tears streamed down her face. She had thought it was because she wasn't fully recovered from her illness that she felt nauseous.
I've been suppressing it by drinking water for quite a while now.
If she had known it was seasickness, she wouldn't have drunk so much water; it was just too uncomfortable.
Jian Yu stumbled to the bedside in a daze. Just as she was about to lie down, Lu Jiao grabbed her, forced her to put on her clothes, and dragged her out the door.
Lu Jiao walked very fast, and Jian Yu was even more dizzy.
Jian Yu bumped into a crew member, but he couldn't even see the crew member's face clearly.
There are too many double images.
The crew member laughed, "Seasick?"
Lu Jiao: "Go get a windproof blanket."
The wind was too strong on the deck. Jian Yu had just fallen into the water, and Lu Jiao was worried that he would catch a cold from the wind.
Jian Yu was already unsteady on her feet, and as soon as Lu Jiao let go, she fell to the ground.
Lu Jiao helped her up, but Jian Yu waved her hand, refusing outright.
"Get up! The longer you lie down, the more uncomfortable you feel. You'll feel better once this fainting spell passes."
"I...don't...want it."
Lu Jiao forcefully pulled Jian Yu up, but Jian Yu slumped down like a noodle.
Lu Jiao put his arm around Jian Yu's waist, using her as leverage to help her stand up.
Jianyu still couldn't stand up.
Lu Jiao, "Try to stand properly."
Jian Yu's legs wouldn't obey him and started to bend down again.
Lu Jiao sighed helplessly, "Just hang in there."
Jian Yu tried it and found that she really couldn't hold on.
A crew member carrying a windproof blanket ran over and placed a soft cushion in the middle of the deck, saying, "Sitting down is just as good."
The key is that even sitting down is difficult.
Lu Jiao had no choice but to sit down beside her and let her lean on him.
Jian Yu sat up for half the night and vomited for half the night, eventually even vomiting bile.
This terrified Lu Jiao; if he vomited any more, he would go into shock.
"Accelerate."
"good."
An old sailor rushed out of the cabin, holding a small medicine bottle in his hand. "Found it! There's a bottle of seasickness medicine I bought two years ago. I checked it, it's still valid."
Lu Jiao seemed to see a savior, "Quickly, bring it here."
The seasickness medication was forced down my throat.
Jian Yu still felt very dizzy. "Has the medicine worn off?"
Lu Jiao checked the expiration date again; there was still one month left.
It expires in one month. Even if it's been two years since I opened it, it should still be valid, right?
Lu Jiao wasn't sure either.
He could only comfort Jian Yu, "Of course it works. People who used to get seasick only needed to take it twice. Relax, think about something else to distract yourself, and you'll feel better soon."
Jian Yu has no other choice but to comply.
After holding out for more than an hour, Jian Yu slowly shifted his gaze to one side.
Lu Jiao felt a little guilty. "How did it go?"
Jian Yu pursed his lips, and when he opened his mouth again, he vomited all over Lu Jiao.
Lu Jiao almost couldn't help but swear.
The old sailor who had given her seasickness medicine hesitated for a moment, then said, "Boss, I'll watch over her. You go back and change your clothes!"
The boss is a germaphobe; if we don't let him go back to change his clothes, he'll probably explode.
Lu Jiao immediately pushed Jian Yu into his arms, saying, "Hold on tight, don't fall."
The old crew member nodded repeatedly and gently helped Jian Yu cover his head with the loosened blanket, saying, "It's warm."
By the time Lu Jiao returned, the sky was already bright, but Jian Yu was still in the same state as before.
Lu Jiao: "Why is he still half-dead?"
Jian Yu glanced at him listlessly. Has this guy never been seasick?
Do you not know how awful seasickness is?
Lu Jiao immediately saw through Jian Yu's thoughts and nodded very seriously, "I have never been seasick."
Jian Yu was so jealous!
What made Jian Yu even more jealous was what came next. Lu Jiao pointed to the old crew member next to her and said, "He has never been seasick either."
The veteran sailor patted his chest with great pride, “I’ve been working for over thirty years, and I’m not bragging, I’ve never been seasick even once. This bottle of seasickness medicine was prepared by a new employee we hired two years ago. He started taking it as soon as he boarded the ship without getting seasick, and after taking it twice, he found that he had adapted to life on the ship. He didn’t get seasick after stopping the medication, and then the bottle of medicine fell into the crack by the bedside. I only just remembered it and dug it out.”
Jian Yu complained, "So, not a single person on your entire ship knows any physical ways to relieve seasickness?"
Lu Jiao, “…”
The veteran sailor, "..."
The night patrolman, "..."
Jian Yu posed his most pressing question, "Then what are you so proud of?"
