The sun is shining, the sea breeze is blowing, and the busy Bindong Port is crowded with people and colorful flags fluttering. A band in white uniforms are beating gongs, drums, silk cymbals, and playing a warm and cheerful welcome song. The huge and luxurious "Polaris" lies quietly on the sea, like a girl in a silver suit, extremely elegant and quiet. On the opposite side of the cruise ship on the temporary trestle, countless citizens waved colorful flags and held flowers, shouting and screaming at their relatives and friends who had already boarded the boat or were boarding the boat. The sound came and went, wave after wave, almost overpowering the big band with drumming.

An extended "Rolls-Royce" avoided the noisy dock, and under the guidance of two Mercedes-Benzes, quietly came to a seaside building, and slowly stopped at an entrance marked with the words "VIP Passage".

"Welcome!" Two beautiful hostesses smiled like flowers and bowed to "Rolls-Royce" enthusiastically.

"Thank you!" Xu Wenlong, who was wearing a white shirt, nodded, and reached out to pull Liang Shiqi, who was wearing a goose yellow dress, and walked out of the car. One of them is majestic and upright, the jade tree is in the wind, the other is dignified and elegant, beautiful as a flower, side by side, straight like a pair of golden boys and girls, which is particularly eye-catching, especially enviable. They were accompanied by Liang Jingxuan and his wife, as well as Yang Yingying, Li Jing and Liu Qiang and other security guards.

"Have fun, have fun. If you have any needs, just tell me, and I will solve them for you immediately. As soon as Liang Jingxuan got out of the car, he held Xu Wenlong's hand and admonished. After walking in the palace of Hades, because Ruan Shaoxiong was buried in the sea, the stubborn diseases that had accumulated in his heart were removed, and after a period of careful recuperation, he had already recovered his former elegant and friendly demeanor, and his spirit was even better than before.

"Thank you, you are so thoughtful and meticulously organized, we don't lack anything more!" Xu Wenlong glanced at Liang Shiqi, who was sorry for his mother, with a look of happiness and joy on his face that could not be concealed.

Chen Lixin and Liang Shiqi hugged for a while, and earnestly told the old man for a long time, and finally straightened the long skirt on her daughter's body, and said to her with a loving face: "It's windy at sea, be careful of catching a cold." Wear more clothes in the morning and evening, but don't catch a cold. ”

Liang Shiqi nodded like a good girl and said, "Yes, yes, I will definitely wear more clothes." But you also have to pay attention to your body, otherwise my brother and I will be so worried. ”

"Just take care of your business, don't worry about me." Chen Lixin nodded Liang Shiqi's forehead, and said lightly with disgust.

After saying goodbye to Liang Jingxuan and his wife, Xu Wenlong took Liang Shiqi to Li Jing and said to her softly: "School has started, you must study hard in school, especially in class." Remember to go home early with Yingying on weekends, and it's best not to go out and wander around if there's nothing to do. ”

Li Jing's face was complicated, her expression was lonely, she looked at Xu Wenlong with a faint look and said, "Remember, we will definitely go home early, and I also wish you a happy journey!" ”

"Thank you!" Xu Wenlong nodded, turned to Yang Yingying on the side and said, "It's up to you......"

However, Yang Yingying, who was unsettled, did not react at all, her body stiffened and did not move, her eyes stared at the "Polaris" that was close at hand but seemed to be on the horizon for a long time, and she didn't notice that Xu Wenlong was talking to her.

When Liang Shiqi saw it, she couldn't help but pull her sleeve strangely, and asked with a concerned face: "Sister Aying, what's wrong with you?" Uncomfortable? Is there something on your mind? ”

Yang Yingying was shocked like an electric shock, and hurriedly turned her head and said, "Ah...... Not...... It's nothing...... I...... I ......"

Xu Wenlong sighed, patted her on the shoulder and said, "We will be back soon, and we will help you make up the birthday party as soon as we come back." And, of course, birthday gifts, I'll be sure to take care to pick out a very unique one for you. Is that okay? Happy? ”

"Of course...... Of course...... I...... I'm very happy......" Yang Yingying tried to squeeze out a smile, but her heart was still like a huge stone, so heavy that she almost couldn't breathe.

"It's good to be happy," Liang Shiqi took Yang Yingying's hand affectionately and said, "You just wait patiently, Ah Long and I will definitely bring you a special meaningful gift." ”

"Thank you, Sister Shiqi, thank you, Cousin Aaron!" Yang Yingying held Xu Wenlong and Liang Shiqi's hands for a long time, blushing and smiling embarrassedly.

Liu Qiang and the others on the side had already come over with a cheer, and said with a smile on their faces: "We don't have to worry about our affairs, and you don't have to worry about the club, so you can go boldly with confidence." Play as long as you want, come back when you want, and make sure you can't make the slightest mistake. ”

"Yes, the clubhouse is operating normally, everything is developing in an orderly manner towards the set goal, you should have taken Ah Qi to have a good time." Assistant Chen Yan added softly on the side.

"Then there will be everyone!" Xu Wenlong replied with a smile.

"Remember to bring us ...... Bring ......" Li Xianghua didn't cover his mouth, and wanted to jokingly ask Xu Wenlong to help them bring a group of nephews and nieces back, but as soon as the words came out, he realized that Liang Jingxuan and his wife were present, so he stopped talking in horror.

didn't want Liang Shiqi to mistakenly think that they also wanted gifts, so he hurriedly replied: "Definitely, definitely, we will definitely help you bring it back!" ”

Li Xianghua was stunned when he heard this, and then couldn't help laughing. Liu Qiang and Xie Lian laughed so much that they leaned forward and backwards, unable to stand up, staggering and almost falling to the ground. Even Chen Yan, who has always been upright, covered her mouth and laughed secretly.

Liang Shiqi looked at the laughing security guard in surprise, raised her face and asked Xu Wenlong in confusion: "Are they...... What are they laughing at? Isn't it funny? ”

Xu Wenlong glared at Li Xianghua, grabbed Liang Shiqi's arm and said, "Don't pay attention to them, they are joking." Let's go, it's almost time to sail. ”

"Have a nice trip!" When Liu Qiang and the others saw it, they quickly put away their smiles and waved goodbye to them with Liang Jingxuan and his wife.

"Goodbye, you guys should go back early." Xu Wenlong took the small suitcase handed by the driver, waved goodbye to everyone with Liang Shiqi, and then walked towards the "VIP channel" with brisk steps.

Yang Yingying silently watched Xu Wenlong and Liang Shiqi walking farther and farther, and an inexplicable nervousness suddenly surged in her heart, an inexplicable throbbing, followed by a large tear and quietly slid down.

Xu Wenlong led Liang Shiqi through the long passage and followed the sign to an exquisite and ornate reception hall. In the reception hall, more than a dozen men and women had gathered in the early morning, all dressed well-dressed and proud, and boarded the boat in an orderly manner under the leadership of a specific waiter. Xu Wenlong saw that it was not his turn yet, so he wanted to find a sofa to sit down and rest.

At this moment, a young man wearing a fat crew uniform suddenly flashed out of the corner, pointed at Liang Shiqi with a smile and said, "You are Miss Liang, why are you here now?" I've been waiting for you for a long time. "This is a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy, with red lips and white teeth, clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, a round face embedded with two shallow dimples, and he speaks crisply and tactfully, neatly and generously. It's just that there is a little soft and soft coquettish air in the voice, which is probably because of the childishness. But the appearance is very clever and very likable.

Liang Shiqi looked at the little boy in surprise, and asked strangely for a long time, "Who are you?" What are you waiting for us to do? Are you a staff member on the North Star? ”

"Of course!" The young man straightened his chest, tried his best to look like an adult and said: "My surname is Wen, my name is Wenli, and I am determined to stand, not a gorgeous beauty." It's the crew on the North Star, and it's the crew that's dedicated to you and Manager Xu. ”

Liang Shiqi and Xu Wenlong glanced at each other, frowned and asked with doubts on their faces, "Is it?" You can be a crew member at such a young age? ”

"I'm eighteen years old, and I'm not too young." The young man named Wen Li hurriedly replied, "Although he is a little shorter than you, this is natural, there is no way." But most importantly, I am smart and diligent, and I only do things without talking. And I promise to take care of you comfortably, properly, and with one look, you can do things just right and flawlessly. ”

"No," Xu Wenlong looked up and down at the little boy who appeared out of thin air, and said with a look of distrust, "I think you are only thirteen or fourteen years old at most, although you are actually not very short. And Captain James never told us that he would send someone to serve us......"

"Shhhh......h I saw that the passengers were all overhead, and there was no one in their eyes, and they were only busy with their own business. So he put his mind at ease, lowered his voice and said to Xu Wenlong mysteriously, "Okay, for the sake of the new boss, I'll tell you the truth." In fact...... Actually, I'm not really a crew member on the North Star......"

"What? You...... You're not a crew member? Liang Shiqi's face changed, and she hurriedly moved her feet to hide behind Xu Wenlong.

Xu Wenlong patted Liang Shiqi's shoulder to show that he didn't have to worry, then turned his head and said to Wen Li solemnly: "Then who are you?" Why should you come to us? Looking for us for something? ”

Wen Li glanced at Xu Wenlong, pouted and replied, "Before they finished speaking, they put on such a stinky appearance." Is it great to be rich? Is it majestic to be a boss? It's unreasonable! ”

Liang Shiqi's heart moved, and she immediately carefully observed the literary products with curiosity on her face. Looking at it, an inexplicable smile slowly appeared on her face.

"Then you should tell me quickly, we have to get on the boat." Xu Wenlong saw that Wen Li was playing a petty character, and he couldn't help but be angry and funny.

"Okay," Wen Li shrugged his nose and said reluctantly, pouting, "Captain James is my father's good friend, the best kind." My dad was very fond of me, and instead of forcing me to do anything I didn't like, he would try to satisfy my wide range of interests and reasonable demands. For example, this semester I don't want to study, and I plan to follow this boat around the world to sharpen my will, improve my experience, and earn some tips to buy gifts for my mother. Because my mother has been working in the UK for many years, she is coming home soon, and she will never leave again, so she can accompany me every day. By the way, I am an American student and can take a leave of absence at any time. ”

When Xu Wenlong heard this, he frowned and asked in surprise: "Do you mean to say that Captain James left you on this ship privately for the sake of your father's affection?" Will he do that? Can he do that? You're not an adult. ”

"Love is priceless, isn't it for a friend's ribs!" Wen Li smiled mischievously, gave a thumbs up and said to Xu Wenlong, "It seems that your brain is not stupid, no wonder Miss Liang loves you so much, you are a pair made in heaven!" ”

"Affection is priceless? Unlikely, right? Xu Wenlong glanced at Wen Li, but the expression on his face was much more kind and gentle.

"It's entirely possible!" Wen Li smiled at Liang Shiqi as if flattering, and then said to Xu Wenlong: "Because I made a secret agreement with Captain James. ”

"Secret protocol?" Xu Wenlong asked curiously, "What secret agreement?" ”

"Even after I got on the boat, I couldn't walk around, I couldn't move around, I couldn't reveal my relationship with him to anyone, and it was better to pretend that I didn't know each other. In particular, you can't upset the guests, not at all. If the person who hired me was not satisfied, even the slightest dissatisfied, he would throw me to the next site without any negotiation, and leave me to fend for myself in a place where I was not familiar with my life, which was simply terrible and inhumane. Wen Zhuan said a lot, and finally said with a bitter face, "You won't hire me, let alone complain about me." Actually, I knew you were a good person at a glance. He is handsome, strong, and most importantly, he has the heart of a bodhisattva. Not to mention Miss Liang, she has an elegant temperament, beautiful as a fairy, and is definitely a good girl with a heart! You're the most loving and well-matched lovers I've ever met, it's true, and I never lie! And ......"

"Alright, alright, you don't have to say any more." When Xu Wenlong heard this, he hurriedly said to Wen Li, "If things are really as touching as you say, and you are diligent and not lazy, we are willing to hire you." Whether or not they will complain about you or fire you depends on how you perform in the future. What do you say, Ah Qi? ”

Liang Shiqi smiled slightly and didn't answer, but her eyes were still turning around Wen Li.
