"Wait a minute," Shi Xi said to Tao Yuxuan, "I'm suddenly a little hungry. Let's go upstairs and get something to eat."
Tao Yuxuan asked in surprise, "Didn't you just finish a cake, five puddings, and a cup of milk tea?"
Shi Xi: "...I'm hungry again."
Tao Yuxuan was a little confused, but she still pushed Shi Xi back, saying, "You have quite a big appetite now."
The foreigner who came out from inside was going the same way as the two of them. He kept staring at Shi Xi's face, looked at her carefully, and seemed a little puzzled.
Shi Xi asked, "Do you know me?"
The foreigner, who was about forty years old and looked quite ordinary, smiled and said, "You look a lot like a friend of mine."
Tao Yuxuan said speechlessly, "Uncle, how old are you? Why are you still trying to pick up young girls?"
The foreigner looked at Shi Xi and said seriously, "...You two really look alike."
“Foreigners all see us Asians like this,” Tao Yuxuan said. “I think you foreigners all look pretty much the same.”
"My name is Keane," Keane said with a smile. "Want to grab something to eat?"
He just overheard the two of them saying they were going to get something to eat.
Shi Xi politely declined, saying, "Sorry, we're not hungry, we won't go to the restaurant."
Keane: ? ? ?
Tao Yuxuan also decided to stay away from this strange old man. She pushed Shi Xi onto the deck and whispered, "Huh? This is only the first floor? Were we on the basement just now?"
“Yes, that’s the casino on the cruise ship, so I told you not to go in,” Shi Xi said in a low voice. “The foreigner we just met had a gun on his waist.”
Tao Yuxuan was silent for a moment, then said, "I said he's old, he won't be angry, will he?"
Shi Xi: "So what if I'm angry? I'll never see you again anyway."
Tao Yuxuan: ...
The two were drinking tea on the deck.
A short while later, Leng Qiankun came over to keep the two company.
"I apologize, I have some matters to attend to and have neglected you two distinguished guests." Leng Qiankun apologized and sat down next to the two.
Tao Yuxuan looked at her fingernails and said, "Since you've neglected us, how are you going to make it up to us?"
Leng Qiankun clapped his hands.
The waiter immediately brought over a dessert stand with beautiful and delicate donuts and cream cakes on it.
Then, he poured them some rich and fragrant Qimen black tea.
"I heard you went to the restaurant for afternoon tea earlier but couldn't find a seat, so I specially prepared a special meal and brought it over," Leng Qiankun said.
“They’ve been keeping an eye on our movements.” Shi Xi picked up a donut.
Leng Qiankun explained, "Since you have difficulty walking, I've instructed the crew to take extra care of you."
Tao Yuxuan: "He meant well."
"I heard you encountered a foreign man with a gun?" Leng Qiankun asked.
Shi Xi nodded, "I just saw him. He should be heading towards the restaurant."
“There was a check before boarding, and dangerous goods were not allowed.” Leng Qiankun frowned and took out his phone. “I’ll have someone check right away.”
Tao Yuxuan looked at Shi Xi and said, "Could you be mistaken? That foreign uncle looked ordinary to me, not like he would have a gun."
Shi Xi: "It's impossible for it to be wrong."
Leng Qiankun nodded. "The prince of Kingdom A is also on the cruise ship; we should be even more careful."
Speaking of princes...
Tao Yuxuan whispered, "Where is that prince? Bring him out so we can see him!"
Leng Qiankun said, "He will appear at the banquet tonight."
"Tsk, does he really think he's a prince, throwing a banquet to choose a bride?" Tao Yuxuan said disdainfully.
Shi Xi corrected, "He was originally a prince."
