Chapter 677: Chapter 675 rmaid Story_1 Chapter 677: Chapter 675 rmaid Story_1 Lady Jia’s appearance on the ship was clearly not aid at herself or Su Gao.
After Jia Keke left, Fu Qian put away his notes and beckoned a waiter to help wipe clean the wine on the table, then seriously started on a piece of lamb chop.
From the brief contact just now, it was obvious that Jia Keke was more about probing.
She must have observed them and, unable to resist, decided to test the reality behind their unnatural air.
Just like what Su Gao was prepared to do earlier.
But this doesn’t an her actions were normal.
In the exclusive dining room of this luxury suite, there was indeed a not insignificant proportion of well-dressed patrons, but at a glance, their deanor was all various degrees of leisure, which is what normal tourists looked like.
Outstanding in strength and showing such keen interest in others, as if trying to prevent any accident, not having a special purpose would be truly suspicious.
However, I am just a tourist right now, so for this kind of non-targeted probing, it’s best to just watch and see how things unfold.
Isn’t it better to eat, drink, and be rry with these wealthy and leisurely patrons? Like this one, for instance.
“Mr. Fang, hello.”
Under Fu Qian’s gaze, a figure stood up from the neighboring dining table and walked over with a smile.
Around his early forties, with thinning hair and an oily complexion.
His reddened face was adorned with a pair of gold-rimd glasses, and the small eyes beneath them seed slightly blurred, indicating he had already consud quite a bit of alcohol.
“Hello, what’s your na?”
Fu Qian assessed the unfamiliar face before him.
“My surna is Jia, Jia He.”
This fellow, quite familiar already, sat down in the seat that Jia Keke had vacated earlier, making no secret of his admiration for Fu Qian.
“I heard the conversation you had with that beautiful lady just now, very skillful indeed!”
“Oh? How so?”
Fu Qian had not expected this man to co over for this reason. Looking at Jia He’s eyes shining with excitent, Fu Qian thought he could almost sll the hormones boiling in the air.
“I’ve seen many young people, but few have your kind of composure.”
“Despite making the first move to start a conversation, that type of woman is not easy to deal with. Once she piques your interest, she’ll have countless ways to keep you hanging.”
“I bet she will definitely co back to find you.”
She might, but definitely not for the reason you think.
Fu Qian thought to himself while eating.
“Sounds like you’re quite interested in her?”
“? Of course I am.”
Jia He was taken aback but admitted it quite honestly.
“But too much hassle.”
“I still have so self-awareness. Even with young brother’s skills, I don’t have your advantages.”
“At my age, I prefer much simpler relationships.”
He twirled his fingers and made a gesture indicating money.
“Especially since going after younger won at my age is too much work.”
“Don’t give up so easily; she might actually like that.
Fu Qian reminisced about Jia Keke’s appearance, casually comnting.
Although that woman’s appearance was highly deceptive, from the very first mont, Fu Qian felt that it was just a façade—she was definitely no ingenue.
This was also why he had been able to write that passage in his notes.
“…Really?”
Jia He obviously seed sowhat skeptical.
“Really, people’s tastes vary widely.”
Fu Qian continued speaking while waving his hand nonchalantly.
On one side of the restaurant, Su Gao saw his gesture and approached without any hesitation.
She had arrived earlier, but upon seeing soone sitting with Fu Qian, she didn’t rush over imdiately.
“Which one would you like?”
Fu Qian pushed a dish in front of him towards her.
“Thank you.”
As expected, Demigod Su chose a pudding and thanked him with an indifferent expression.
…
“`
Jia He was utterly dumbfounded at this point.
People are afraid of comparisons.
Facing Jia Keke, he could spout all sorts of opinions and converse with Fu Qian about the arts of courting maidens.
Now, with Su Gao standing here, he felt as though he was sitting on needles and lacked even the courage to steal a glance.
Of course, having road the jianghu for years, he wasn’t foolish enough to believe that Fu Qian attracted this lady over with just a dessert; it was obvious that the two knew each other well before.
Even so, their deanor still made him feel uneasy.
Fu Qian, naturally, wasn’t bored enough to introduce them, leaving him to his own imagination.
In the end, considering Fu Qian’s hands full of rings and Su Gao’s unique style, they were understood to be a wealthy young master and a beautiful female bodyguard.
…
“Is he an ordinary person, should we pay attention to him?”
With the presence of a lady, Jia He didn’t continue his original topic and, after boasting briefly about his business, hurriedly took his leave.
Watching him depart, Su Gao turned to Fu Qian and said.
“An ordinary person, but not necessarily an ordinary businessman.”
Fu Qian shook his head, indicating there was no need to concern themselves with him.
“The Middle Tier who ca over to greet us just now, he might have sensed sothing, so he ca up for a chat; his insight is indeed sharp.”
“Of course, he really is a lecher.”
…
Su Gao did not comnt on Fu Qian’s assessnt.
After confirming there was no need to pay attention, she focused on tackling her own dinner.
As a considerate employer, Fu Qian didn’t require her to engage in conversation, and both of them ate their als in tacit agreent.
Ti flew by quickly in such leisure, and soon there was a cheer from outside.
“Distinguished guests, we have spotted the rare sight of a bioluminescent sea ahead. If you’re interested, you may go to the deck to enjoy it later.”
Soon, a deep voice ca through the broadcast.
A bioluminescent sea?
“Shall we go have a look?”
Seeing the crowd hurrying out, Fu Qian sought Su Gao’s opinion.
“Let’s go take a look, the essence of a holiday is to follow the crowd.”
Seeing her hesitate slightly, Fu Qian stood up without saying a word and took the lead out of the restaurant.
By this ti, the decks above and below the cruise ship were already filled with people.
And in the waters alongside, a large swath of dreamlike bright blue was flowing, reflecting the starry night sky.
As the ship drew closer, the crowd cheered louder.
In the midst of the excited crowd, Fu Qian spotted Jia Keke, who had left earlier.
Now dressed in a new attire, she stood in a black evening dress beside the railing, exuding a standout presence among the crowd.
She clearly saw Fu Qian and Su Gao too and, unsurprisingly, kept sizing up Su Gao, her expression gradually becoming serious.
But under the directions given by Fu Qian earlier, the source of pressure didn’t pay her any mind, simply focusing intently on the blue starlit sea until she finally spoke up after a long while.
“I’ve only heard about the bioluminescent sea in stories, this is the first ti I’m seeing it for real.”
Stories…
“Fairy tales?”
Fu Qian instinctively thought of sothing.
“Yes, about the rmaid legend.”
Su Gao nodded her head.
That was not surprising, as rmaids are a classic figure in most cultures.
Of course, Fu Qian had also seen real rmaids in this world, which had nothing to do with beauty; surely, they weren’t the protagonists of the fairy tales.
“How does the legend go?”
Fu Qian asked casually.
“The story is quite simple. rmaids living in the water would swim into the bioluminescent sea to sing when it appeared. A prince hearing the song would be lured over, and after consuming him, the rmaid could grow legs and co onto land to move around…”
…
Watching Su Gao lost in thought, Fu Qian took a deep breath and expressed his admiration.
That aunt really is… a fairy tale genius!
