Chapter 688: Love Above All Chapter 47 Being with You Guys is Good Enough

As the boat slowly approached, Gu Xiaoxi could make out the person standing at the bow.

Probably everyone would recognize him.

If not Quan Shaoqing, then who else?

Could there be such a coincidence in the world?

Imposing at the bow, the man stood with his hands behind his back, dressed in a black suit tailored to fit his body snugly. His tall figure, coupled with the flag fluttering behind him, appeared even more towering.

His face was stern, his brows seemingly locked in eternal worry, and his dark eyes like leopards lurking in the night, deep, dangerous, and devilishly mesmerizing.

At the moment, a row of men dressed in black stood behind him, their presence grand.

His looks were enchantingly captivating, and right then he resembled an emperor of the dark night, dangerous, noble, enchanting.

Gu Xiaoxi clenched the cup in her hand. Despite the bright sunshine and wearing a light sweater, she felt as though she had fallen into an ice cave with Quan Shaoqing’s arrival.

The man’s aura was indeed terrifying; anyone with a lack of composure could probably not even stand steadily in his presence.

She remembered the other two women he had bought were so terrified in front of him that they dared not speak.

How had she dared to kiss him of her own accord?

That she hadn’t been blown away by his gun at that moment truly was her lucky break.

Quan Shaoqing’s boat was taller than theirs, and from his vantage point at the railing, he looked down upon Bai Yu and the others, "Is there a problem?"

"We were going out to have fun, but our boat broke down. And there’s no one here who knows how to fix it. Could you possibly have someone who could help us?" Bai Yu asked.

Actually, having a broken boat in the middle of the sea was quite dangerous; if they encountered a major storm, they would be tossed into the sea to feed the fishes.

Quan Shaoqing’s gaze swept across everyone, his deep eyes remaining calm. When his sight reached Gu Xiaoxi, he paused for a moment before turning back and waving at the people behind him, "Send a couple guys to take a look!"

Before long, his boat moved quickly towards theirs.

The men he had dispatched went with Bai Yu to repair the boat.

On the deck, there were now only Fu Zhe and the others left.

Gu Xiaoxi took Dongfang Le back to the sun loungers to continue basking in the sun.

Not knowing what Bai Yu was planning, she couldn’t be bothered to get involved; it was best if it had nothing to do with her.

She could enjoy a moment of peace!

"Xiao Xi, should we really not offer to help?" Dongfang Le asked with anxiety.

"How could you be of help? Can you repair the boat, or are you able to strike up a conversation with the infamous Young Master Quan?"

Gu Xiaoxi closed her eyes and rocked the chair, enjoying the leisure of the afternoon.

Dongfang Le sat beside her, his gaze curiously fixed on something not far away.

Quan Shaoqing hadn’t moved an inch from the bow.

Dongfang Le felt a bit scared to meet that man’s eyes; it was as if King Yama himself lived in Quan Shaoqing’s gaze.

Just one glance, and the monster would bite viciously, leaving a soul-deep wound, unbearable...

However, all of a sudden, a demure and beautiful young woman came walking leisurely behind Quan Shaoqing.

Dongfang Le pointed at the woman, surprise evident in his eyes, "Chen Lu!"

No wonder she hadn’t been seen on the trip; she was with Quan Shaoqing.

Chen Lu, smiling cheerfully, leaned on the railing and waved energetically at Chen Zhi from a distance, "Brother, what are you guys doing here!"

Fu Zhe and the others all turned their gaze towards Chen Zhi...

Chen Zhi looked at his sister with a bewildered face, "Weren’t you off playing abroad? How come you’re here?"

"I talked to Dad about it, he agreed to let me go with Shaoqing; it’s just like me going abroad to play!" Chen Lu turned her smile toward Quan Shaoqing, "My brother and friends, can we invite them to come up and play?"

Quan Shaoqing naturally had recognized everyone on the boat from the start.

Just like those people had recognized him at a glance.

Only, everyone was observing each other silently without making a move.

Since Chen Lu had said so, he naturally wouldn’t refuse.

The circles of the aristocracy and the powerful in City A were overly complex, even more so than in a dozen countries combined.

If he wanted to stay in City A for the long term, of course, he had to make more acquaintances and secure his footing.

"Then please do!"

A simple statement, Chen Zhi looked at everyone and said indifferently, "Why not go up and sit for a while? Who knows how long it will take to fix the boat."

"Sure!" Fu Zhe and Luo Yiyan were the most straightforward.

They had all heard the rumors about Quan Shaoqing but had never really dealt with him, so why not sit and chat?

If he wanted to get a foothold in Country A, he naturally wouldn’t mess with them.

At least while Bai Yaxuan was in office, he absolutely wouldn’t harm them.

It was a joyful reunion for the siblings, Chen Zhi and Chen Lu.

Quan Shaoqing had set up tables and chairs on the spacious deck, and everyone enjoyed the high-quality tea in the warm afternoon sunshine.

A few of them chatted with forced smiles on their faces.

Gu Xiaoxi naturally didn’t pay attention to them.

All the scions and young ladies from prestigious families had gone to Quan Shaoqing’s boat, seeming eager to get acquainted with him.

Dongfang Le looked worriedly at the cabin, Bai Yu still hadn’t come out, and he didn’t know how the repair was going.

In contrast, Gu Xiaoxi really just closed her eyes and started snoring away, sound asleep.

Before long, Bai Yu and the repair team sent by Quan Shaoqing all came out.

Dongfang Le immediately ran up and asked, "Is the boat repaired, Sister Bai Yu?"

Bai Yu shook her head, "The power unit is burned out, and the radar system is destroyed too; it can’t be fixed for now."

Dongfang Le grew even more worried, "What should we do then? Although the weather is fine now, the sea is unpredictable. What if a storm comes and we are in trouble?"

Bai Yu patted her head and said with a smile, "Don’t worry, nothing will happen."

Afterwards, Bai Yu took Dongfang Le onto Quan Shaoqing’s boat and sent his repairmen back as well.

After hearing the explanation from Bai Yu and the repairmen, Fu Zhe couldn’t help but worry. If this were on land, it would be one thing, but at sea, if the power unit is burned out and freshwater can’t be processed, without water or electricity, it would be very dangerous for them; they couldn’t live normally.

For a moment, everyone fell silent.

Chen Lu’s obedient big eyes glanced at Quan Shaoqing, and then she carefully and tenderly smiled at him, "How about it, Young Master Quan, could you help us all by taking us back? We can leave this boat here and later send someone with materials to repair it?"

Quan Shaoqing’s dark eyes lifted, glanced at Fu Zhe, then looked towards Bai Yu and asked, "Where are you all trying to go?"

"We’re just out to have fun! Her ladyship said she was feeling down, so she asked us to take her out for a good time. Now that we’re out, the boat is broken. Looks like we can’t continue our excursion," explained Bai Yu with a look of regret.

Fu Zhe and the others looked serious.

Young Master Quan lightly raised an eyebrow, and for once the expressionless face finally revealed an enigmatic look.

"So many of you have come to accompany her? It seems Mr. Bai dotes on her quite a bit!"

Young Master Quan’s tone was calm, revealing no hint of sentiment.

All those present remained silent, which was as good as an affirmation.

Bai Yu chuckled, "It’s not entirely for her; we also wanted to have fun. Besides, Mr. Bai is footing the bill and taking care of everything, so all we need to do is enjoy ourselves."

Quan Shaoqing’s fingers lightly tapped the armrest of the chair, his long eyelashes fluttered down, then he lifted his gaze again and smiled calmly, "Since you are all Mr. Bai’s guests, our meeting is fate. Move onboard, let’s continue with the fun. I happen to be free these few days, so I might as well join you."

Fu Zhe and Luo Yiyan raised their eyebrows, instinctively thinking that Quan Shaoqing was giving face to Bai Yaxuan. Was this an indirect bribe to Mr. Bai, trying to get on good terms with him?

"Great!" Chen Lu was the happiest, quickly looking at Chen Zhi with a smile, "What are you hesitating for? Quickly have the servants move everything up."

Young Master Quan waved his hand lightly and said to Jin Xiao standing behind him, "Go arrange for it, let everyone board."

"Yes!" Jin Xiao obeyed and turned around.

Afterward, everyone gathered together to discuss the itinerary and route.

Quan Shaoqing just nodded indifferently, showing a very patient demeanor.

Soon the servants moved everything from the boat onto Quan Shaoqing’s vessel.

Fu Zhe stared at Quan Shaoqing’s impassive profile, feeling that this agreeable Young Master Quan was utterly different from the cold-hearted King Yama he was rumored to be.

Luo Yiyan was also curious, but he could only interpret Quan Shaoqing’s gentleness as him trying to please Bai Yaxuan.

After all, the fact that Chen Lu could be on his boat indicated that he was interested in networking within the elite circles of City A.

As for the relationship between him and Chen Lu, that remained to be seen.

Chen Zhi knew a bit about Quan Shaoqing.

After all, both of their parents held him in high regard, and he had heard his parents mention before that if Chen Lu could marry Quan Shaoqing, it would be a very advantageous match.

Of course, whether she could capture the heart of a man was up to Chen Lu herself.
