Actually, everyone who has experienced killing has a certain habit.
Leng Yue is like this, Xiaofan is like this, and others are like this as well.
No matter what ti it is, having their most suitable weapon in hand is the only way to feel at ease.
For instance, Leng Yue hides the knife while cutting fruit, and Xiaofan casually grabs a handful of toothpicks when he sees them.
After this incident, Xiaofan did not imdiately feel at ease. Instead, the events of tonight started to make him feel a vague unrest.
If they were rely after Leng Yue's beauty, Xiaofan had many ways to punish them. If it ca to it, he wouldn't mind opening a killing spree, after all, they didn't seem like good n or won, they acted ruthlessly and improperly.
But why did they have guns on them?
Earlier, Xiaofan observed that aside from the gun he had dismantled, the others had handguns tucked in their waists.
Even though they ran away, partly because they were afraid of him, the main reason was likely because they couldn't fire their guns at that mont.
In other words, they didn't want the others on the ship to know they had guns. What are they hiding?
"Bastard, you can't even handle a small matter? You can't deal with just two youngsters, what the hell do you do?"
Upon returning to report, unsurprisingly, Dalke was furiously chastising his subordinates.
"Boss, that kid is a bit spooky, just one move and he had us all floored. I was about to draw my gun. Who knew he'd see through my actions instantly, and even snatched my gun..."
"What? You wanted to draw your gun? Don't you know the plan is about to be implented soon? If you alert the enemy and ruin everything, I'll skin you alive. Now, where's the gun?" Dalke was even angrier.
"Boss, the gun was dismantled by that kid. I... I didn't dare to retrieve it."
"What? You..."
"Boss, don't be angry. That kid is really spooky. He seems very familiar with firearms. With just a few casual moves, the gun fell apart in his hands. None of us were a match for him."
"Yeah, boss, he used sothing to stab our wrists, rendering us unable to move. We almost thought we were crippled." A subordinate imdiately showed his now-purple wrist to prove his innocence, trying to help his brother out.
Others also showed their hands one after another...
"Bastard, many people in Huaxia know so tricks, but you got scared by such small tricks. Go, retrieve the gun for . If Li Yunchang and the others ask tomorrow, I can say it's a replica, just stalling for now." Dalke said angrily.
"Then, boss, that chick..."
"That chick..." As soon as Leng Yue was ntioned, Dalke's mind filled with fantasies of her incredible figure. Thinking about how such a beautiful woman was now embraced by that brat made him uncomfortable: "Let her enjoy for a while, once our operation is complete, that chick will be mine sooner or later."
"Yes, boss."
Action, plan... who exactly is this Dalke? Why does he want to change the shipping route? And who is he teaming up with for a delivery over here?
The next day...
The sun is shining brightly, the weather is fair...
Finally getting a good sleep, the two arrived at the cabin in good spirits.
Yesterday, not being alti, there weren't many people around. This morning, however...
Woah, the entire hall was brightly lit, with giant speakers playing beautiful classical music.
The whole hall had at least over fifty people eating and chatting. There were n and won, young and old...
Usually, families sat together for breakfast.
So people, even later than Xiaofan, ca over and would greet Li Yunchang at the center of the hall before finding their own seats.
Evidently, this sea excursion attracted many wealthy rchants with their families participating, and as all accommodations were covered by Li Yunchang, they politely greeted their host.
As for the detestable Dalke and his subordinates, they didn't appear in the hall. It's said they had their als delivered directly from the kitchen to their rooms, rarely showing up.
It was just because Xiaofan caused a disturbance with a thrown stone that they ca out to look around. Unexpectedly, at one glance, Dalke was deeply attracted to Leng Yue's beauty.
"Mr. Li, Mrs. Li..."
"Mr. Li, Mrs. Li..."
Like everyone else, Xiaofan and Leng Yue politely greeted the two.
"Hey, good morning. Co, sit, sit together." Li Yunchang, seeing Xiaofan, imdiately warmly invited him to sit down.
"Well, I'm afraid we're intruding..."
"Hey, what's the intrusion? We're all from the sa country, and since we t by fate, it must be destined. Co, co, sit, sit, more people make for a livelier al."
"Well, if you insist."
"That's the spirit. Ma'am, please bring two more sets of cutlery over. What would you like to eat? We're used to having sothing light in the morning, but if you want anything else, feel free to order, don't be shy." Li Yunchang continued.
"No need, no need, as long as there's food, it's fine. Being on the island for months, we know the value of food." Xiaofan said with a smile.
"You young folks really have that energy, always seeking adventure, not listening to advice, just like my son. He's about your age and never listens. I planned to have him join us for so fun, but he said there's nothing fun with people our age. But I have to tell you, if you enjoy thrills, that's fine, but why bring a girl to take risks? Since she's your wife, you should protect her."
"Yes, Mr. Li is right, I've learned my lesson."
With that, Xiaofan looked at Leng Yue gently.
Leng Yue subtly turned her head away, not saying anything.
Indeed, Xiaofan was sowhat reflective. It's fine for him to seek adventure, but bringing Leng Yue along, what does that accomplish?
Li Yunchang was inherently a conversational person, and once he opened up, he couldn't stop, starting to chat with Xiaofan about young people's topics. Clearly, he was quite wild in his youth too.
anwhile, Mrs. Li quietly ate her breakfast, occasionally shaking her head and smiling, showing her gracious and elegant deanor...
Compared to last ti at the casino, this ti Xiaofan felt even more impressed, recognizing him as a candid businessman. If he were a few years younger, they might have really beco good friends. But now, it's more like a friendship across generations.
There's sothing distinctive about Xiaofan's conversation compared to other young people. With his keen eyes, Li Yunchang could tell at a glance that Xiaofan was very different from the wealthy young n in Capital City.
Being able to travel to Japan by plane certainly indicated a well-off background, but the depth Xiaofan showed greatly impressed Li Yunchang. Last night, while sleeping, he even talked about it with his wife occasionally.
"Uh, Mr. Li, if I may ask, how much do you know about that Dalke?" Finally, Xiaofan asked the question that had been weighing on his mind.
