Xu Ke, with Zhong Boyu’s arm around his shoulder, took a tour of the casino and was then led outside, seemingly heading towards the bar.
As the four of them were happily walking forward, a person suddenly jumped out on the road, startling the four of them. Upon closer inspection, they realized it was the bear Anshou who had been kicked out earlier.
The bear Anshou, after carefully observing the clothes the four were wearing, confird in his heart that these were the people who had won against him in the casino, and his eyes were filled with undeniable hatred.
"Don’t think that just because you’ve taken off your masks, I won’t recognize you. I’m not satisfied with the result in the casino. I demand a rematch. I, the bear Anshou, never lose, especially not to a Chinese like you." The bear Anshou, being short, had to look up to et Xu Ke’s eyes, which made him very unhappy, even feeling a sense of humiliation, deepening his resentnt towards Xu Ke and the others.
Clearly, the four of them were quite striking, but in the eyes of the bear Anshou, they all looked detestable. Just seeing them made his internal fire rage uncontrollably.
"Do you dare? Do you dare to compete with again? This ti, I will undoubtedly clear my na." The bear Anshou clenched his fists and said.
"No matter how many tis we compete, against , you only have one result – losing. There’s no other possibility. If you want to win against , you better improve your gambling skills. Oh, by the way, we Chinese have beaten you Japanese more than once. If we can win once, we can keep winning. Even if I lose in the future, the person who beats won’t be from Japan, so give up." Xu Ke said unrcifully, practically rubbing the opponent’s face in the dirt, eliciting heavy gasps from the bear Anshou, who looked ready to explode at any mont.
"You can’t leave. If you don’t compete with again today, I won’t let you leave. Even if you leave today, I’ll keep pestering you." The bear Anshou said, trembling with anger.
Xu Ke licked his back teeth and looked at Zhong Boyu, who had already taken out his phone from his pocket and called so people over. Initially, the bear Anshou didn’t know what they were doing, stubbornly waiting in place until he saw familiar attires and realized what they had been doing on the phone.
His arms were once again restrained, attracting the attention of passersby. "Thank you again today. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have so easily obtained a small island. If it weren’t for your reminder, I would’ve forgotten to confine you. Don’t worry; once we reach the next port, we’ll let you off. But until then, please stay in the room and don’t wander off randomly."
After Zhong Boyu finished speaking and waved his hand, the bear Anshou was taken away once more, still struggling and shouting in the sa posture, except this ti the people taking him had a specific destination in mind.
"Finally, so peace. Co on, let’s go have a drink." After dealing with the situation, Zhong Boyu’s smile returned, looking as cheerful as ever.
"No need; we have minors here, and I will not accompany you to the bar." Xu Ke reached out to refuse.
"Oh, my pig brain, I was so happy I forgot about that. How about I buy so drinks and we have a drink in your room?" Zhong Boyu slapped his own forehead and said.
"I don’t see where you’re being smart. That’s my and my wife’s place. What’s a man like you doing in there?" Xu Ke rolled his eyes at Zhong Boyu and, holding Lin ngyao’s hand, prepared to distance himself from this fool.
"I didn’t think of it! Let’s drink in my room instead." Zhong Boyu slapped his forehead again and suggested.
"Two grown n drinking alone in a room? I won’t accompany you; I want to be with my wife." Xu Ke refused Zhong Boyu again without rcy.
"Fine, no drinks then. But can you wait for ?" Zhong Boyu waved at Xu Ke, appearing like a deserted, aggrieved maiden, which gave Xu Ke goosebumps. He quickened his pace with Lin ngyao, and Yu Xia had to jog to keep up.
Her cheeks turned rosy from running, her features rare and lively.
The four of them, with an aggregated age nearing a hundred, were acting like children, and ti slipped by quickly as the dance party approached.
Though it was an evening dance, the sky hadn’t darkened yet when Yu Xia was dug out of bed by Lin ngyao.
"Xiaxia, stop sleeping, wake up. We need to prepare for the dance party attire." Lin ngyao shook Yu Xia awake.
Yu Xia, like a little animal, burrowed into her bed reluctantly, but still got up, washed up, ate, changed clothes, and followed Lin ngyao to buy the evening’s banquet attire and then to style themselves.
It was Yu Xia’s first ti in such a place. Everything new and strange, yet she didn’t appear small-minded and instead exuded a comfortable, refreshing springti vibe, lively and not to be looked down upon.
"Welco! Are you here for the evening party styling?" The person leading Lin ngyao and Yu Xia in was very polite, with a comforting tone.
Lin ngyao nodded, confirming their guess.
"Then you’re at the right place. Not to brag, but our styling studio is the best on the whole cruise. Judging by your looks, you haven’t settled on your gowns yet, right? How about taking a look here? We collaborate with all major international luxury brands, and our store has their haute couture that will surely et your needs." The salesperson eagerly introduced while swiftly leading Lin ngyao and Yu Xia to the clothing area.
The dazzling array of clothes was enough to overwhelm anyone. It was unbelievable how the store owner managed to stock the latest haute couture from major brands, not a single fake in sight, improving Lin ngyao’s opinion of the place.
"Xiaxia, co over and pick a dress. We need to go to the dance party soon. Quickly choose one you like." Lin ngyao called Yu Xia over to pick a dress.
Yu Xia walked ahead picking clothes, while Lin ngyao followed, offering opinions as she chose for herself, creating a warm atmosphere between the two. "Sis, that smoky gray dress would look great on you." Yu Xia tugged Lin ngyao’s arm and pointed at the dress she fancied.
It was a strapless gown with a finely cinched waist, the top embroidered with magnolias mixed with so black, transitioning to a flowing chiffon skirt from the waist down. The chiffon skirt wasn’t tightly fitted but layered into a puffy style, creating a smoky effect.
Not only did Yu Xia love it at first sight, but so did Lin ngyao. Holding the dress, Lin ngyao patted Yu Xia’s head and said, "I really like this dress. Thank you, Xiaxia, for picking it for ."
Upon hearing Lin ngyao’s thanks, Yu Xia shyly lowered her head, her voice brimming with joy as she said, "No thanks needed, as long as sis likes it."
