Chapter 15 Chapter 15 (1/2)



15

"Connect to the big screen."

The value of the light ball representing Gu Weisheng's favorability on the screen did change, from -1 at the beginning to 1. Although the change in the value was not large, considering Gu Weisheng's personal experience and his suspicious and unpredictable temperament, such a change was undoubtedly a good start.

After days of tense nerves, Minister Liang finally let out a sigh of relief. He couldn't help but smile: "Continue monitoring."

The tester's full-throated voice came: "Yes!"

At this time, the mission observer called up some intelligence and said, "The person behind those waves of people who came to investigate Ye Rong this afternoon was not Gu Weisheng.

Gu Weisheng is deep-minded and suspicious, but Miss Ye Rong is lazy and simple. However, because Miss Ye Rong and Wang Qiuman are "accomplices", and there was the "chance encounter" at the cocktail party and the bottle of medicine he picked up, in Gu Weisheng's eyes, Miss Ye Rong's simplicity is actually a manifestation of "deep scheming". When he really thinks so, he will check Miss Ye Rong. This -1 favorability becomes 1, which means that Gu Weisheng also realizes that Miss Ye Rong is not a deep-minded acting school, but is really as simple and lazy as she looks. "

At this point, the observer couldn't help but smile: "So it's safest for us not to interfere during this period. Being too deliberate will only make Gu Weisheng more disgusted and resist."

After hearing this, Minister Liang also laughed: "Jin Lin once told me that Ye Rong looks lazy, but she has a plan in mind at the critical moment. Although the girl is young, she can do things with confidence, which is really rare."

"Yes, now Gu Weisheng's favorability has increased earlier than we expected, which shows that the current approach is correct." The observer said, "The system only gave three months, which is very tight in terms of time, but this time the two of them go out may be a good opportunity."

"Last night must have been a dream."

After waking up early in the morning and taking a shower, Ye Rong looked in the mirror to console herself. What about the sofa bang, what about the various actions of drinking and leaking, what about approaching people with a smell of alcohol, this is definitely a dream!!!

Ye Rong rubbed his face, trying to convince himself that the death scene was all a dream.

However, when she took out her mobile phone and opened the colored cube, she saw that the number on the light ball representing Gu Weisheng's favorability had changed from -1 to 1.

This...she wasn't seeing things!

Ye Rong blinked. Does that mean that Gu Weisheng really believed what she said last night?

Although it doesn't feel real, like a dream, the numbers on the favorability light ball are correct.

"Last night was not a dream."

Ye Rong looked dazed, still a little bit unbelievable, and a little bit ashamed.

Ahhhh, my face is gone! Ye Rong covered her face, feeling hopeless.

No, no, no, drunken behavior is not counted, Gu Weisheng will definitely understand, he is so gentle and considerate. Ye Rong prepared herself mentally and reluctantly convinced herself to leave the room.

The main reason was that today was the day when the young master of the Norman family held his coming-of-age ceremony. As one of the distinguished guests, she and Gu Weisheng had to be present to represent the Gu family and witness the day when the young master of the Norman family officially became the next heir of the Norman family.

If she kept hiding in the room, it would seem that she was guilty.

This can't be done.

So, Ye Rong checked her appearance in the mirror. She was 360 degrees beautiful without any blind spots. It was another day to fall in love with herself!

Ye Rong was very satisfied and walked out of the room confidently, heading towards the living room.

Isn’t that a bit too many people… 4?

Apart from Gu Weisheng who looked a little cold, there were also the assistant, makeup artist and makeup assistant who followed her and Gu Weisheng on the cruise ship.

That is, what's going on with this quiet atmosphere? They seem to be quite afraid of Gu Weisheng?

Gu Weisheng seemed unaware and was drinking his coffee.

"Ms. Ye..." When the assistant Zhao Rui saw her, she stood up as if she had been pardoned and saw her savior. "You finally woke up. We have been waiting for you!"

Gu Weisheng also noticed the movement here, and raised his eyelids to look at her.

When Ye Rong met the boss's gaze, the first thought that came to her mind was not what happened last night, but that Gu Weisheng looked so damn good today! The dark suit was matched with a dark pink diamond pattern tie. The pink had a little brown tone, which made it look very high-end. It was definitely a temperament that ordinary people could not control. But on Gu Weisheng, how can I put it... He was noble and elegant, born to be noticed.

Today he even had his hair and makeup done. His slicked-back hair perfectly illustrates his superior bone structure. The ends of his hair are slightly curled, which doesn't look rigid. Instead, he has a charm that's somewhere between cool and mature. At first glance, he's just... too charming!

What a treat!

Ye Rong blinked, turned around and said to the makeup artist: "I want to be as beautiful as Gu Weisheng!"

The makeup artist was a very elegant-looking man. He was stunned for a moment after hearing this. He looked at Gu Weisheng and coughed lightly: "Of course."

Because she hadn't had breakfast yet, the assistant prepared one for her early.

A cup of coffee, a few croissants, and a plate of fresh fruit. After Ye Rong finished her breakfast, she was taken by the makeup artist and his assistant to the make-up room next door that had been temporarily renovated.

Because it was a slightly more formal occasion, the makeup artist chose a pink daytime dress for her. It was very simple with mid-length sleeves and knee-length, emphasizing her elegance and dignity. The makeup on her face was also very light.

The makeup artist spent more time taking care of her long hair. Her hair had a few natural waves and the styling was simple. She wore pink diamond earrings, and the pink color matched with Gu Weisheng.

"Ms. Ye Rong, pink diamond is very suitable for you." The makeup artist couldn't help but say so. Everyone loves beauty, let alone him who focuses on making women more beautiful. The girl in front of him is quite beautiful both in skin and bones. She is the kind of girl who can be prettier without makeup than female stars. The difference between them is definitely not makeup, but natural beauty.

Her facial features are bright and her expression is full of the charm that only a young girl can have, but her eyes are also very clear. The pink diamonds on her earlobes make her look bright and dignified.

"This is the matching pink diamond bracelet. Let me help you put it on." The makeup artist took out a bracelet from a velvet box and wanted to help her take off the gold bracelet on her wrist.

Ye Rong shook her head: "No, I'll just wear it."

The gold bracelet was made by the NSI department and is inlaid with a colorless diamond. Overall, it looks like a simple and ordinary bracelet that would not look out of place when paired with any outfit.

Of course, it is more than just decorative.

When Ye Rong came out, she saw Gu Weisheng standing up from the sofa. Gu Weisheng seemed to be very well-mannered at all times, and it was impossible to tell that his legs were supported by prosthetic limbs. The sunlight behind him was very close to him, but it could not touch him at all. There was a clear boundary between light and dark.

Ye Rong blinked and walked towards him: "Have you been waiting for a long time?"

Gu Weisheng's eyes fell on her and he smiled gently: "Be careful next time."

Okay.

Fortunately it wasn’t “pay attention in the next life”.

Ye Rong couldn't help but complain in her heart.

The Norman family's young master's coming-of-age ceremony was held in a magnificent hall on the top floor.

When Ye Rong and Gu Weisheng arrived at the venue with the invitation, they found that the coming-of-age ceremony was quite rigorous. Ye Rong knew that the custom in this country was to hold a coming-of-age ceremony on the child's 20th birthday, witnessed by all families, and after today, it would represent that he had truly become an adult and that he would officially take over the family affairs.

Simply put, it is a family heir ceremony, a ceremony to recognize the young master of the Norman family as the heir of the Norman family.

The two were led by the waiter to sit in the front row.

Ye Rong discovered that most of the visitors were foreigners, so she and Gu Weisheng stood out.

Soon, everyone was there.

"Thank you all for coming to witness my coming-of-age ceremony. I am Norman Leeson, and I swear again - I will shoulder the honor and responsibility of the Norman family, and the responsibilities entrusted to me by the country and the society..."

There stood a foreign young man on the stage with a youthful look on his face. He was calm and steady when reading the oath of adulthood. Because the language of Norman's country was an international common language, Ye Rong could understand it easily.

What follows is the blessings and expectations from the elders of the Norman family to the young master of the Norman family.

After the ceremony, Young Master Li Sen was obviously more relaxed and invited everyone: "There will be a dance for the next three days. I hope everyone will enjoy it."

Then, everyone came forward one after another to congratulate the young master.

Ye Rong looked at Gu Weisheng beside her and asked, "Are we going over there too?"

Gu Weisheng didn't know what he was thinking. After hearing Ye Rong's words, he couldn't tell his emotions and just said "hmm" softly.

Ye Rong and Gu Weisheng had just stood up when a couple came towards them. The couple's eyes fell on Gu Weisheng, and the wife spoke first: "You are Ran's child, right?"

Gu Weisheng showed a gentle and polite smile: "Nice to meet you, ma'am. I am Gu Weisheng, and Weishengran is my mother."

"Indeed." Madam's expression relaxed a little, and then she remembered something, "You and Ran look so much alike. I was really surprised that you gave up your inheritance rights back then..."

Gu Weisheng smiled gently: "My father sympathizes with my physical disability, and I am not qualified for this position."

"Your mother Wei Shengran is better than an ordinary male heir. As her child, how could you be worse?" Madam's eyes were gentle. "Since you are willing to return to the Gu family, it means that you have finally let go of the past and started a new life, right?"

Gu Weisheng smiled more gently: "Yeah."

"That's good." The lady looked at Ye Rong beside him and laughed, "This beautiful lady is your fiancée, right?"

Gu Weisheng smiled flawlessly: "Yes."

The lady looked at the old man with the kindness she would give to a younger generation: "I hope you can tolerate and protect each other and be happy."

This sentence made Gu Weisheng pause subtly.

"Of course." Ye Rong answered at the right time and said with a smile, "Thank you for your blessing, ma'am."

The lady and her husband probably had other things to do, so before leaving, she said, "See you at the ball."

"Good-bye, ma'am."

After the couple left, the two of them went up to talk to the young master of the Norman family for a few words and then prepared to go back.

On the way, Ye Rong subconsciously glanced at Gu Weisheng. Gu Weisheng seemed to have realized something and turned his head to look at her: "What's wrong?"

The tone was calm and gentle, no different from usual.

"Nothing." Ye Rong shook her head. It was just that when she talked about the past with that lady just now, Gu Weisheng looked really gentle and didn't mind the tragic experience in the past at all.

The loss of legs can also be mentioned in a nonchalant tone.

It's like I've really let go of the past.

This actually made Ye Rong concerned. It might also be because she knew the plot, so she began to care about why Gu Weisheng had to sit in a wheelchair when he first appeared in the book.

It is obvious that this matter should be related to the time he spent back home. What was it about?

Ye Rong thought and thought, but couldn't figure it out. However, she didn't make it hard on herself. After all, she was not struggling alone. She had the country behind her. What could be difficult for her?

No!

So Ye Rong took a nap comfortably without any psychological burden.

She got up and looked out the window at the great weather, and her mood suddenly brightened up. After all, she and Gu Weisheng came here for vacation, so wouldn't it be a waste of the beautiful scenery if they stayed in the room all the time?

At least you have to experience the sunshine and the ocean. Ye Rong walked to Gu Weisheng's door and was about to knock when the door opened from the inside.

Ye Rong's knock missed. She withdrew her hand awkwardly and blinked: "The weather is so nice, shall we go outside to the deck? There is sea and sunshine there, let's relax for a while?"

"No." Seeing her energetic appearance, Gu Weisheng seemed to remember something, "Don't you also like the sunshine and the sea on the sofa in the living room?"

"..." Ye Rong quickly recalled what happened yesterday, not feeling guilty at all, "It's easy to fall asleep on the sofa, so we should go to the deck!"

Gu Weisheng walked past her and said, "But I'm not interested in the sea and the sun."

"No." Ye Rong helped him recall, "You forgot, the person who is most interested in this trip is obviously you."

"..." Gu Weisheng paused subtly, turned sideways, and looked at her meaningfully: "That's true."

So, half an hour later.

He sat on a chair on the deck of the cruise ship.

Gu Weisheng doesn't like crowded or noisy places. The assistants and bodyguards around him all know his habits and will not disturb him unless necessary.

As for the sea and the sunshine, he did not pay special attention to them.

The sea breeze carries the unique fishy and salty smell of the sea. Even though there is a parasol in the way, the sun is still warm, but it is not too objectionable.

Except...

As soon as Ye Rong left, someone came up to him and tried to say something. It's not that he didn't know what the other person was thinking, he just thought it was troublesome.

Just after sending one away, I looked up and saw Ye Rong, who had changed into a swimsuit and was walking towards the swimming pool in front with excitement.

Ye Rong was very happy. He was already on the sea, so how could he not go into the water to cool off?

Before going into the water, she wanted to grab a life buoy for peace of mind, but she didn't think she was going to the deep water and there were lifeguards on the shore, so she didn't take it.

The sun was shining directly down, and the light in the water was a little dazzling. Ye Rong put her feet into the water first. The cool water immediately relieved the burning sensation just now, and she sighed comfortably.

The water in the shallow area was only up to her waist. Although she was a little uncomfortable at first, it was no problem after she got used to it.

Ye Rong walked forward a few steps cautiously, and the water gradually covered her chest... Ye Rong felt that her breathing was not smooth and her legs were a little weak.

Ye Rong originally wanted to try paddling, but she immediately backed out. It was too difficult to be a landlubber. The water level was pressing against her chest and she began to panic.

On the other hand, in the deep water area, everyone showed off their talents, and even the children were better than her.

Thinking of this, Ye Rong suddenly felt too embarrassed to call the lifeguard on the shore. Also, because she was wearing swimming goggles and looked calm, no one noticed that something was wrong with her.

Suddenly, a blonde girl swam beside her. She seemed to see her distress and offered her her hand: "Do you need me to take you back to the shore?"

As if it was the sound of nature, Ye Rong looked at the angel-like girl in front of her and handed her her hand without hesitation: "Thank you very much."

The girl was not floating on the water at this moment, but was really holding her hand and walking her to the shore.

Back on the shore, Ye Rong wrapped in a bath towel and sat on the edge of the pool. She reached out and took off her goggles. Then she looked at the beautiful blonde girl floating in the water and said with some shame: "Thank you for helping me."

The blonde girl was stunned for a moment after seeing her take off her goggles. Then she smiled and said, "My name is Alyssa. What's your name?"

"Ye velvet."

Hearing the pronunciation of her name, Alyssa was a little surprised: "Are you Chinese?"

"Yeah." Ye Rong nodded.

Alyssa smiled and said, "My grandmother is also Chinese. I can understand your language, but I can't speak it well."

One of them was on the shore, and the other was in the water. After talking for a while, Ye Rong learned that Alyssa was from Reims, one of the distinguished guests invited by the Norman family, and she was 18 years old this year.

After learning that Ye Rong was also invited by the Norman family, Alyssa smiled and said, "Then see you at the dance."

"Yeah." Ye Rong smiled and nodded, "Goodbye."

Ye Rong went to the locker room to change out of her swimsuit and goggles.

Because of Alyssa, the previous incident in the swimming pool became interesting, and she also had a friend who looked like a doll, so it did not leave any psychological trauma on her.

After changing her clothes, Ye Rong put on sunscreen and did not forget to put her sunglasses on the table. She returned to Gu Weisheng with two glasses of iced juice.

"How is it?" Ye Rong put one of the cups in front of him, then sat down on the chair beside him and said with a smile: "Looking at the sun and the sea will make you feel better, right?"

"..." Gu Weisheng examined himself in his heart why he agreed to her. He glanced at the ice drink in front of him, which was steaming and emitting a refreshing fruity aroma.

"This is lime juice, it's delicious, why don't you try it?" Ye Rong recommended it to him, "It's just honey, it's not very sweet."

Perhaps feeling that it was a little hot, Gu Weisheng took it, took a sip, put it down and didn’t touch it again.

All facilities on the Muse cruise ship are extremely luxurious, and the experience on the deck is better than you imagined and more wonderful than a seaside vacation.

Ye Rong held a large parasol on her head and wore sunglasses that covered half of her face. She drank a sip of iced juice comfortably.

She felt that this way she could have more holidays.

"It would be great if I could swim." Ye Rong regretted that she was a landlubber. Just as she was feeling regretful, she suddenly saw Gu Weisheng standing up.

……?

Ye Rong was somewhat surprised that the other person walked in front of her.

Afterwards, he leaned over and took off the sunglasses that covered half of her face.

Ye Rong paused while sucking the juice, and said hesitantly, "Gu Weisheng, do you feel hot?"

Unlike Ye Rong who was only wearing a V-neck silk suspender dress, Gu Weisheng was wearing a shirt and trousers as usual, but his style was more casual.

She was obviously the most heavily dressed man present, but Ye Rong also noticed that she had only been away for a while, and the beauties who came to chat with her left one after another, and some of them were bold enough not to mind Ye Rong's presence.

Ye Rong glanced and saw the mixed-race beauty approaching. The mixed-race beauty also looked at her, with surprise and complexity, as well as a hint of subtle hostility on her face, but she did not move forward.

Realizing something, Ye Rong sat up straight and looked at Gu Weisheng, suddenly suspecting that he was using her as a human shield.

Gu Weisheng also looked at her, and did not intend to return the sunglasses to her. Instead, he took them in his hand and smiled gently: "It's a bit sunburned."

Ye Rong drank the juice in one go and said, "How about I go back to your room with you to rest?"

Gu Weisheng's tone became gentler: "Doesn't that mean I'll have to trouble you to get up?"

"..." Ye Rong tilted her head. Boss, why do you have to use honorifics to me? However, it feels a bit weird when you use honorifics in a sarcastic tone.

After that glass of honey water, Ye Rong was no longer afraid of whether he was smiling or not.

But it can also be seen that he was a little unhappy at the moment because he was approached just now. Well, the big guys are different. He treats things that others can't get as old shoes.

Ye Rong covered her lips and yawned at the right time, then stood up: "It's not hard, I'm tired too."

Maybe Gu Weisheng was really tired, so he went straight into his room as soon as he came back.

The air conditioning in the living room was very sufficient. Ye Rong, who was sweating a little from the heat, suddenly felt like she was alive again. The sun was too strong on the deck, but it was rare to see such a beautiful sky and ocean, and the sea breeze also blew away some of the heat, so it was not very unbearable.

The air conditioning temperature in the living room was just right at this moment. Ye Rong lay comfortably on the sofa and watched TV series. She then went to the refrigerator and got a box of matcha flavored ice cream to eat.
