I Told You To Manage The Reserve Unit For Me Instead Of Turning It Into A Special Troop
Chapter 1241 - Chapter 1241 Chapter 708 Looking to Recruit Followers_2

Chapter 1241: Chapter 708: Looking to Recruit Followers?_2 Chapter 1241: Chapter 708: Looking to Recruit Followers?_2 “If the stormy weather ends earlier, we’ll just continue on our way. That way, we won’t waste too much time.”

Actually, Hong Kai didn’t really need to tell Qin Yuan and the others this. His purpose, out of kindness, was to prepare them mentally.

“Then let’s wait and see. We’re not missing much in a day or half a day.”

“Yeah, I kind of hope we can stay a bit longer. Now that we’re about to head to a foreign land, my heart feels especially uneasy.”

“Heh, want to stay a few more days? When there’s nothing left to eat or drink, you won’t think that way.”

“…”

Everyone talked and chatted, the conversation drifting further and further.

“Everyone can move freely on this deck. Of course, if you don’t want to stay up here, you can also ask our crew to take you back to the cabin.”

After saying that, Hong Kai left after giving some instructions to Brother Chen and Old Zhang.

“No need for more idle talk. Before the thunderstorm’s over, you can all move freely on deck. Now disperse.”

Old Zhang said to everyone.

The crowd dispersed, yet four people remained in the area.

Qin Yuan, woman and child, and Ling Yu.

“Let’s go, Ling Yu. Why are you standing there like a fool?”

Hei Xiong saw Ling Yu not moving and was puzzled.

“What’s there to see? You all go ahead. I’ll just stand here and get some air.”

As he spoke, Ling Yu found a spot, sat down, and began to meditate with his eyes closed.

“Hey, you kid–”

“Forget it, leave him alone.”

Shan Ge said to Hei Xiong.

The four left without paying any more attention to Ling Yu.

“Mommy, Niuniu wants to go see the ocean.”

The little girl told the woman.

Because of her short stature and her position far from the edge of the ship, the little girl couldn’t see the ocean world beyond the railing.

The woman glanced at Qin Yuan unintentionally and then picked up the little girl. “Niuniu, Mommy will take you to see.”

Saying this, the woman carried the little girl and walked straight to the edge.

“Yuanqing, why are you still standing here idly? Why not wander around?”

Old Zhang saw Qin Yuan had no intention of leaving and curiously asked.

“What’s there to wander? It’s all the same ocean all around!”

Qin Yuan replied and then casually found a spot to lie down. He looked quite reckless and unrestrained.

“Then I’ll leave you be. I’m old, I need to go lie down for a bit.”

After finishing his sentence, Old Zhang left following Brother Chen.

“Old Zhang, are you familiar with that kid?”

Brother Chen frowned and asked.

Hearing him, Old Zhang chuckled, “Well, I deliver meals to the kid every day, so we’ve gotten to know each other.”

“You personally go to deliver the meal?”

Brother Chen looked at Old Zhang incredulously.

Old Zhang gave an embarrassed smile, “Wasn’t it you who arranged it, Brother Chen? So of course, I have to be careful.”

“Sure, I just thought it was a bit boring, so I went to see. Turns out, Yuanqing is quite an interesting kid.”

“Yuanqing?”

“Yeah, isn’t the kid’s name Yuanqing?”

Old Zhang had some criticisms in his heart. This person was brought aboard by you and you even instructed to take special care of him. How can you not even know his name?

“Oh, never mind then, go on with your work.”

Brother Chen didn’t engage further in conversation and dismissed Old Zhang with a word.

“Wow!”

“Is this the ocean? It’s so vast and even shimmers!”

Seeing the ocean for the first time, the little girl’s immature voice was filled with excitement.

“Is it pretty?”

“It’s pretty!”

It was nighttime now, and the area was calm and peaceful. The sea shimmered under the moonlight and stars, creating a tranquil and serene ambiance, which was rather soothing to look at.

“Hey!”

“How did you end up mixing with those people? I feel like you’re different from them.”

Qin Yuan was somewhat bored and saw Ling Yu meditating, so he started the conversation.

Ling Yu opened his eyes, calmly glanced at the man lying carefree in front of him, then closed his eyes again, offering no response.

“Hey, kid, I’m talking to you. Not being very polite, are you?”

Seeing Ling Yu ignoring him, Qin Yuan didn’t intend to give up and continued pestering.

Ling Yu frowned with his eyes closed but then opened them again to look at Qin Yuan, “It’s none of your business.”

“Come on, let’s chat!”

Finally, Ling Yu spoke. Qin Yuan chuckled, “I’m just bored and wanted to talk to someone.”

“Find someone else then. I’m not interested in chatting.”

Well, quite a character.

Qin Yuan, undeterred by the rebuff, continued persistently, “Brother, you carry yourself with such poise, and you seem quite distinguished compared to the bald guy we just saw, so I got curious.”

“We’re just a temporary team, and it’s possible we’ll go our separate ways after disembarking.”

Ling Yu found Qin Yuan really annoying, so he just wanted to answer the question and be done with it.

“Is that so? Is your team still looking for members? Can I join?”

Qin Yuan’s eyes swiftly darted about, then he spoke earnestly.

Hearing this, Ling Yu’s brows furrowed slightly as he stared at Qin Yuan, trying to discern if his statement was truthful or not.

“Are you joking?”

He indeed felt that Qin Yuan was joking. With someone like Old Zhang looking out for them on this ship, why would they need to join a gang like theirs?

“Do I look like I’m joking?”

“Not really.”

Ling Yu shook his head, “Why?”

“Because I’m planning to make my way in the M country and I need people under me.”

Hearing this, Ling Yu’s eyelids twitched.

Damn it, by the sound of it, he wanted to recruit them as his underlings!

“You want to be our boss?”

“Correct!”

“How about it, are you interested?”

Qin Yuan waited expectantly for Ling Yu’s answer.

Confronted with Qin Yuan’s confident and brazen response, Ling Yu couldn’t help but be stunned for a moment.

After a few seconds of silence, Ling Yu laughed.

“So, do you think my proposal is so good that it made you laugh with joy?”

“Don’t worry, as long as you follow me, I assure you that as long as I have something to eat on this ship, so will you.”

“Hahaha!”

Ling Yu laughed at Qin Yuan’s remark.

“Alright, you can ask them if they agree when they return.”

“Good, so do you agree?”

Qin Yuan asked again.

Clearly, this question was directed solely at Ling Yu.

Ling Yu’s eyes narrowed slightly before he spoke mildly, “It depends on whether you have the ability.”

“What ability?”

Qin Yuan pressed on.

“If you can beat me, I’ll be your underling!”

Facing Qin Yuan’s relentless challenge, Ling Yu responded directly.

“Alright, let’s go!”

Qin Yuan stood up and beckoned to Ling Yu.

Ling Yu’s lips curved into a slight smirk, and he also stood up.

The two men locked eyes, no more words were exchanged, and they began to warm up.

This scene attracted the nearby crowd.

“What are they doing?”

“Exercising?”

“It doesn’t look like it–”

“I faintly heard something about them wanting to fight…”

The crowd formed a half circle, watching the two men at the center.

A woman who was watching the sea with a little girl noticed the commotion and came over.

“Mommy, what are those uncles doing?”

The little girl asked in puzzlement.

“It’s nothing. They are just playing a game,” the woman lied.

“Can I join?”

“No, we’ll just watch from here.”

“What’s going on, why is everyone gathering here?”

A crew member noticed the situation and called out from a distance.

“They’re going to fight!”

“Don’t spout nonsense, they are exchanging martial arts skills,” someone corrected, clearly not wanting to miss out on the excitement.

“Yeah, yeah, yeah, they’re exchanging martial arts skills.”

While they spoke, a few more crew members came over.

“What’s this, break it up.”

One crew member moved forward to disperse the crowd, but was stopped by the one who had arrived earlier.

“Don’t rush, let’s see what happens.”

“This isn’t right, is it?”

“What’s wrong with it? It’s no big deal–it’s just a fight, right?” the crew member looked to two of his colleagues.

The colleagues nodded in agreement, “No problem, we’ll just watch from the sidelines; nothing chaotic will happen.”

Throughout, Qin Yuan and Ling Yu paid no attention to the people around them.

At this moment, their eyes only saw their opponent.

Qin Yuan could tell that Ling Yu was no ordinary fighter, and naturally, Ling Yu could see Qin Yuan was formidable too.

Thus, both men were utterly serious, brewing their fighting spirit, ready for combat to break out any moment!
