Chapter 618 - He Fangqing

Chapter 618: Chapter 641: He FangqingThe over two thousand employees on the cruise ship were not all pushovers. Each employee here had been trained to be of the utmost quality, and on every level, there were skilled security guards. As soon as they saw the conflict arise, four staff members quickly dove into the water and separated Li Yifei from those other young people.

"Everyone, please, stay calm. Stay calm," they urged.

Seeing that the security had stepped in, those young men didn’t dare to clash with them on the cruise ship. Even if they were foolish, they knew it was not their place to challenge the ship’s authority. But with the security there, Li Yifei couldn’t land his punches on them, so they immediately became cocky and began to taunt, hopping around, "Kid, if you’re tough, name yourself."

Li Yifei looked at them coldly and said, "What’s the matter, you still don’t accept it?"

"Accept your mother’s *ss! Ah!" The young man had just uttered a swear when he screamed. A mass of water had suddenly rushed into his mouth with massive force, causing his head to jerk back as he fell into the water with a splash.

The color drained from the pampered young master’s face at this encounter, because it was just a casual flick of Li Yifei’s hand, and a mass of water hit the swearing man like a hidden weapon, toppling him over. This was simply too awesome.

A security guard stood in front of Li Yifei, polite but with an assertive tone, "Sir, please stop. Our cruise ship will handle this. Escalating the situation will affect your experience on board."

Li Yifei said coldly, "Tell them to keep their distance, or they’ll have me to answer to."

The security guards on the shore had already seen the whole incident and knew it was not Li Yifei’s fault at all. These pampered young masters had been looking for trouble, so they didn’t make things difficult for Li Yifei and they persuaded the young masters to back off.

At that moment, the group didn’t make any more disrespectful remarks but glared viciously at Li Yifei. On board the cruise, they could only rely on themselves, but once they left, they would have a plethora of resources at their disposal and could deal with anyone they wanted. Their goal was to remember what Li Yifei looked like and then investigate who he was so that they could find him later.

"Sir, we know you are skilled, but we ask that you refrain from using martial strength on our cruise ship, so as not to make our job difficult," the security politely told Li Yifei after the young masters had left.

Li Yifei smiled faintly and said, "If no one comes looking for trouble with us, I won’t bother anyone else."

"Yes, we understand. However, some guests are genuinely trying to greet the ladies kindly. If they don’t cross the line, we can’t intervene. But if they do, we will step in. Please, sir, don’t take matters into your own hands and put us in a difficult position."

Li Yifei nodded. These security guards were now, in a way, his colleagues, and he had no reason to make things hard for them.

After the security guards had left, Chu Xiaoyao said indignantly, "We let them off too easily."

Michelle quickly replied, "It’s alright, we didn’t lose anything, they just gave us a scare."

Su Yiyi also chimed in, "Right, we shouldn’t cause any trouble. It would make things difficult for Brother Li."

Chu Xiaoyao giggled and said, "I know, but I just love watching uncle beat people up. It was really cool."

Michelle and Su Yiyi both looked at Li Yifei with adoring expressions. The authority Li Yifei had just commanded was intoxicating for a woman; being with a man like that definitely gave them a sense of security.

While Li Yifei was dealing with the pampered young masters, Xu Yingying was not far away, but she did not come over to stop the commotion. One reason was that she fully trusted Li Yifei to handle the situation well. The other reason was that it involved Chu Xiaoyao and Su Yiyi. If she didn’t let Li Yifei take care of it, it would seem as if she was not allowing him to protect the two of them.

After the situation was resolved, she came over and asked Su Yiyi, "Yiyi, everything alright?"

Xu Yingying showing concern made Su Yiyi feel both flustered and touched as she hurriedly replied, "Sister Yingying, I’m fine."

Xu Yingying nodded and said, "Good to hear. We’ve all been too scattered, inviting trouble from boring people."

Su Yiyi quietly agreed. Although they were all in the same swimming pool, she never dared to get too close to Xu Yingying. It was an almost instinctive fear. She was afraid that something she said incorrectly or something she did inadequately might upset Xu Yingying. She naturally positioned herself as Li Yifei’s lover and dared not get too close to his official wife.

Xu Yingying took Su Yiyi’s hand and laughed, "You don’t always have to avoid me. Otherwise, people might think I’m bullying you."

Su Yiyi quickly replied, "No... no... Sister Yingying, I’m already very grateful."

"Then just join in the fun with everyone, and don’t always hide on the side."

"Okay!" Su Yiyi nodded, stealing a glance at Li Yifei, and seeing him nodding at her with a smile, she felt somewhat comforted in her heart.

Li Yifei, accompanied by a group of beautiful women, played in the water, which caused the cruise ship’s security to pay extra attention. In their eyes, Li Yifei was also considered a potential threat. Regardless of whether Li Yifei was at fault or not, if he were to injure someone, it could bring negative repercussions to the cruise. The best way to prevent any trouble from a dangerous person like Li Yifei was to ensure that no one bothered the girls around him.

This led the security team to wonder what kind of important figure this man could be, surrounded by so many beauties—this was Huaxia, not an Arabian country. Here, a monogamous relationship was the norm, and being surrounded by so many women could only imply significant martial strength or power.

Li Yifei, however, paid no attention to the security detail. As long as no one disturbed them, he had no reason to find trouble; instead, he focused on having a great time with everyone, including his daughter.

Li Yifei was having a blissful time, and the afternoon passed quickly. After changing their clothes, they headed to the cruise ship’s restaurant.

The restaurant on the cruise ship offered both Chinese and Western cuisine. One could order dishes to be prepared by the chefs or opt for the buffet. The buffet wasn’t ordinary—it featured exquisite offerings such as Australian lobster, Japanese Four-Headed Abalone, French foie gras, and caviar. If one were to try and enjoy such a spread in a hotel, it would undoubtedly be a costly affair.

The people dining here were those who had purchased expensive cruise tickets, indicating significant wealth, and by extension, a concern for status. Despite the array of high-end dishes, most would simply take a modest amount, ensuring not to pick only the expensive items, as that could be seen as lacking sophistication.

"President Xu!"

"President Xu!"

Upon arriving at the restaurant, several people greeted Xu Yingying. Dreamfly Company had been quietly solidifying its powerful backing in Mile City. As a result, many in business circles sought to network with Xu Yingying. Even if they couldn’t collaborate with her immediately, connecting now might lead to future opportunities to engage with Xu Yingying’s influential supporters.

Xu Yingying had anticipated this situation and, as someone with a strong business acumen, wasn’t going to miss an opportunity to interact with other business elites. Before coming, she had discussed it with Li Yifei. On this cruise, even if these business tycoons were attracted by Xu Yingying and He Fangqing’s beauty, they wouldn’t overstep their boundaries. The wealthier and more socially prominent one became, the more gentlemanly their behavior, even if they were scoundrels at heart. In public, maintaining an air of decency was key.

So Xu Yingying took He Fangqing with her to dine with the executives of a few large companies. Sёarᴄh the Nôvelƒire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Aside from Xu Yingying and He Fangqing, who had broad social connections, the rest of Li Yifei’s group didn’t know many people, so they went directly to the buffet area. Eating there was satisfying and allowed them the freedom to choose as they pleased.

The food-loving Meng Xiaofei exclaimed excitedly upon seeing so much delicious food, "Wow, look at these huge lobsters! And abalone too! Brother Li, Brother Li, there’s caviar here... Shanshan, look, they have Remy Martin as well, a bottle of this costs several hundred outside!"

Meng Xiaofei’s loud exclamations immediately drew many gazes. Mostly, the men focused on Meng Xiaofei’s impressive bust, eyeing the ****-level beauty with desire. However, the women who saw Meng Xiaofei all displayed looks of disdain; making such a commotion here seemed terribly unrefined.

Michelle and Su Yiyi felt a bit embarrassed, but Xu Shanshan and Meng Xiaofei were quite unbothered. Both were playful and usually didn’t care how others viewed them. They joined Meng Xiaofei in picking out food to eat.

Little Yifei was somewhat tired from playing all day and lacked energy, but seeing Meng Xiaofei and the others so excited, she perked up too, waving her little hands and saying in a sweet voice, "Daddy, daddy, I want some too."

Li Yifei smiled and said, "Alright, alright, daddy will get it for you."

Little Yifei excitedly said, "Yay, yay, I want that big, red lobster, too."

Little Yifei had always been spoiled with the finest foods; Ning Xin’er, who was not short on money, wouldn’t dream of depriving her daughter. Little Yifei had tried all sorts of delicacies and had a particular fondness for lobster, with its soft, white flesh being her favorite.

"Yiyi, Xin’er, don’t be shy; we’ve paid for this. Eat whatever you want, otherwise, we’d be at a loss," Li Yifei encouraged.

Usually frugal, especially Su Yiyi—who, despite the money Li Yifei had given her, was reluctant to spend—found many foods here she had never tried before.

They were initially cautious, but with Li Yifei’s encouragement, they eventually chose a variety of delectable items and found a table where they started to enjoy their feast.

"Eh, isn’t that Xiaofei? What’s this, landed yourself a rich man? You’ve even made it onto a cruise for some high life," a rather shrill female voice called out from behind Meng Xiaofei.

As soon as Meng Xiaofei heard the voice, her brow furrowed. The disrespectful tone was unmistakable; it was someone looking for trouble. This irked Li Yifei—coming here for a meal and still running into such inconsiderate people.
