The crew dared not be disrespectful to Gu Lingqian, so all the proper courtesies were observed.
But they were visibly nervous and anxious.
Of course, if sothing happened to Lady Yu on this ship, this vessel would probably never be usable again.
"Didn’t the captain warn everyone not to go into the sea at night due to the wind?"
Gu Lingqian was a bit puzzled, with the situation being this dire, why would soone still go swimming?
"That’s because Lady Yu said the wind hadn’t officially picked up yet, and she just wanted to go for a quick dip before coming right back."
That’s the daughter of the Yu Family, the person Old Master Yu values the most, and the focus of this promotion event.
She insisted on going down to play, who dared to stop her?
Gu Lingqian could probably guess the situation at that ti. In fact, the wind had not really started yet, but it seed as though it could blow into a storm very soon.
"Did no one watch over her when she went swimming?"
"There were lifeguards on duty at all tis, but their accounts are inconsistent. So say Lady Yu has co up, others say she hasn’t returned yet."
The crew was helpless, so they could only search the surrounding sea and keep looking all over the ship.
"By the way, Young Master Ling, Lady Yu isn’t in your room, is she?" Although it felt unnecessary to ask, they really were searching every room right now.
"It’s just my girlfriend and ."
"Alright, Young Master Ling, I have to continue searching for Lady Yu. I’ll take my leave for now."
After the crew mber left, Gu Lingqian turned to look at Xia Yinian, who was still sitting on the bed.
Xia Yinian had already closed the dical book and was about to get off the bed.
"You don’t need to go out, I’ll go help with the search."
Gu Lingqian saw right through what she had in mind and said, "It’s crowded and the storm could arrive very soon. Stay in the room and don’t run around randomly."
"But..."
"There are no ’buts.’ A storm might co soon, perhaps with thunder and lightning. Although we’re not far from the island, we are still at sea. The cruise ship isn’t huge and could start to rock."
Xia Yinian understood. He was worried that if she went out to search, she might be caught in a sudden storm on the deck and swept into the sea by a wave, risking her life.
"But where are you going to search?" The sa scenario could happen to him, and Xia Yinian would also be worried.
And what about Gu Beicheng? Was he also outside searching by now?
Yu Wanqing really... was being sowhat capricious. Having everyone search for her at such a ti, what if sothing happened to those looking for her while she herself was alright?
But what’s done is done, and blaming won’t help now.
"Then be careful." Given the good relationship between the Gu Family and the Yu Family, as the eldest grandson of the Gu Family, Gu Lingqian couldn’t possibly not go to search.
Moreover, the Gu Family was one of the investors in this promotional event, and they had an obligation to ensure everyone’s safety.
"Okay," Gu Lingqian nodded, "rember to stay in the room and not run around. I’ll co right back as soon as I find her."
"Don’t go into the sea." At a ti like this, what if the storm suddenly hit?
"Don’t worry. If we must search in the sea, it’ll be professionals who go. I’ll stay on the ship and won’t try any dangerous feats."
Being worried about by her made Gu Lingqian feel warm inside, just like a husband being minded by his wife before leaving the house.
"I really want to kiss you before I leave." He wasn’t joking.
Xia Yinian gave him a look: "I won’t let you."
Gu Lingqian, feeling helpless, glared at her: "You’ll suffocate sooner or later."
