Chapter 283: Shi Lifen

I glanced at York and smiled.

"Do you have a crush on that beautiful young engineer?" I couldn't help but tease him.

York lowered his head and sighed softly.

"What's wrong? Have you confessed...... She doesn't accept you? I continued to ask.

"yes...... That's it, how do you know? The silly boy looked up at me.

Isn't it all written on your face - it's so silly and cute. I thought to myself.

"Mr. Qian, you have to help me!" York stared at me.

Alas...... This is a bit difficult, on this ship, your shipping group company has arranged for two women to work here, the purpose is obvious, men and women work together without getting tired - this law is common all over the world, such a long and boring marine life, is in need of this kind of adjustment. However, I just took a few looks, and found that those men were basically secretly paying attention to the two women—there were more monks and less porridge, and I guess these men were thinking about this when they slept at night. Especially the young one, who was young and beautiful, made the men smitten even more, and York, who was only the lowest and most humble of all the characters on the ship, how could the girl take a fancy to him? It is very difficult to change this situation unless in an open social environment, and on this relatively closed ship, the content of daily life is the same...... So it's hard to promise him.

There are a lot of regular things, York, a stupid boy, can't see it at all, and I don't blame him, he has little life experience, and he is as simple as a piece of jade.

When York saw that I didn't say anything, he immediately said, "Brother Qian, I will be your eldest brother in the future, can you do anything you command?" He begged.

"When I was working in Shanghai, I heard them say that they are usually called big brother, and that big brother will take good care of the little brother, and I am your little brother, and you have to take care of me...... Yorke said with a smile.

Yo, this silly boy is so funny...... I smiled inwardly.

"What's her name?" I asked.

"It's called Gracee, oh, my lovely Skinnie......" York's eyes lit up.

"What does she usually do? Are electronics engineers busy? I asked.

"Shi Lifen, I stay in the engine room all day, and the cab, I can only see her every day when I eat! And then there's our party once or twice a week, and she's coming, and when she's drinking, it's so charming......" York said emotionally.

"Why are there so many parties?" I asked.

"You know, it's boring on a boat, and we're all looking for reasons to party and use every opportunity to have some fun! Who's birthday, there are happy things at home...... and so on, all of which can be used as themes! He replied with a smile.

"Big brother, I also wrote a lot of love poems to Shi Lifen, you can help me see them another day...... It's all written in French, but I can read it to you. York laughed.

"Good! Silly boy, you're pretty romantic. I smiled and nodded.

"You said you used to work on a cruise ship in Shanghai, why don't you continue to do it? I'm going to come here. I suddenly remembered.

"Well, I was originally working as a waitress on that luxury cruise ship...... Those two years were really colorful...... But then, that cruise line went out of business! I had to find another way to make a living, and after half a year of unemployment, I returned to my hometown in France, and was introduced by a friend to work as a waiter on this freighter. York recounted slowly.

The steaming cup of coffee was ready, and York walked over to bring it to me.

Although it is only a freighter, York still maintains the professional service attitude on the cruise ship back then, humble and confident. With his clean white shirt and blue and yellow beach-inspired tie, I can't help but imagine him on a cruise ship.

"Are freighter wages much higher?" I asked as I drank my coffee.

"Where! Not only are the wages on the freighter not as high as in the past, but there are no tips...... However, I'm afraid of the feeling of being unemployed, so I'll do it first! He shook his head helplessly.

The coffee was fragrant and authentic.

"Don't you add milk?" York was attentive.

"I don't like milk, and I don't like sugar." I replied.

"You also like to smoke...... Yorke said with a laugh.

"Smell it? The nose of a French puppy. I smiled.

"Hee-hee. Big brother, are you done with your coffee...... I'll take you to the wheelhouse, the captain must have been waiting for you for a long time! York said.

"I've been waiting for a long time...... Would you also use that word? I turned my head to look at him.

"Are you impressed with me now?" York laughed again.

This guy, when he shows a smile, is really likable...... It seems that you can really help him think of a way to chase that Shi Lifen.

"Big brother, look at the sea outside the window, it's really beautiful...... I am very happy working here every day and facing the endless sea! I was born to belong to the sea...... I don't think I could have survived without the sea! He continued.

I put down my coffee cup and stared out the window at the sea level.

"Although there are no five-star hardware decorations and meticulous service on the freighter, what you will be presented with is a different kind of marine life, a possibility to calm your heart and leave time to look at life from other perspectives, especially for those who focus on the sailing experience...... York suddenly said.

I turned my head to look at him.

"Yes, this morning, I ran to the deck to watch the sunrise over the sea...... It's shocking. I nodded.

"And that's not all, the sunset over the sea is also very beautiful...... Also, in addition to the calm beauty of the sea, there is also a lot of dynamic beauty, but ...... Don't be too dynamic, when we encounter a storm, we have to be scared! Over the years, I have experienced several very violent storms, which are very terrifying...... Thankfully, we're all safe! I'll tell you a good story another day. York said.

"Oh? Such a large ship, also worried about storms? I frowned.

"Of course, although the big ships are very advanced now! There is a lot of high-tech equipment...... However, there is no such thing as absolute security at sea. Sometimes, those waves can reach a height of more than ten meters in an instant, don't you think it's terrifying? "York seemed to be trying to scare me.

"Don't scare me, I'll swim." I smiled and picked up my coffee cup.

"It's not to scare you. If you're lucky, you might be able to experience it once or twice, and it's ten times more thrilling than riding a roller coaster! York laughed.

"Okay...... It's called good luck, you're really optimistic. I pursed my lips.

"Let's go, let's go to the cab!" I stood up.
