Chapter 152: Chapter 152: Not Allowed to Wear_1 Chapter 152: Chapter 152: Not Allowed to Wear_1 “…Your legs are showing.” Huo Beijiang unnaturally shifted his gaze, “I haven’t even seen it! How could you let others see!”
“Does that mean I can’t wear skirts anymore?” Nan Fei was visibly distressed, “But I still enjoy wearing shorts!” As she spoke, she deliberately gestured to her thigh.
“This short, only until here.”
Huo Beijiang bent down to look, and his handsome face turned black on the spot, the shorts are too short. Let alone wearing them, even the merest thought of her in them nearly drove him crazy.
“You’re not allowed to wear them. Skirts, you can wear, but shorts, absolutely not.” He threatened under his breath, “If you dare to wear them, I will not let you go out.”
“Fine!” Nan Fei agreed crisply. Anyway, her goal was just the skirt; she had no interest in shorts that short.
Besides, if she wore hot pants, her parents would be the first to object.
Pacific Ocean region–
At this moment, boats from all over the world had begun to gather. On the azure seas, luxury liners and large ships appeared from time to time.
Everyone’s objective was the same – to reach Pearl Harbour for the World Ship King Conference happening three days later. Despite the private nature of this conference, it was clear to all that the event had a military background.
Tu Cheng issued an order for everyone to be on Level-1 alert, ready to deter any malicious intent.
After giving the commands, he sensed something wasn’t right and asked the special consultant who just came in, “Do you feel something is wrong?”
“What’s wrong?” The special consultant was confused, but being meticulous and cautious, he pondered over it and then realized what was wrong. “Haven’t we not seen Captain Huo for two days?”
Tu Cheng slapped his palm,”Right! Where did he go? I haven’t seen him in two days. This morning at our mobilization meeting, I thought it was odd. It seemed the Snow Eagle team was so behaved, turns out their trouble-maker was missing.”
The special consultant summoned his communications officer, “Go, find Captain Huo for me, tell him I need to speak with him.”
It was outrageous that he didn’t attend such an important pre-match mobilization meeting.
The communications officer left on his task and, after no more than ten minutes, Lu Jin appeared.
Seeing Lu Jin instead of Huo Bei Jiang, both the special consultant and Tu Cheng were displeased.
“Where’s your captain?” Tu Cheng asked harshly.
The special consultant typically played the ‘good cop’ to Tu Cheng’s ‘bad cop’. Seeing Tu Cheng’s anger, he calmly asked, “Lu, why are you here?”
“Our captain took a leave of absence.”
“Leave of absence?” Tu Cheng almost fainted, almost out of breath, “How did he leave?” On the vast sea, where could he have gone? He would never run off, that’s why Tu Cheng was so trustful during their voyage.
Lu Jin didn’t expect his reaction, “Boss, didn’t you know?”
Tu Cheng raised his hand, and Lu Jin hurriedly said, “Two days ago, a plane came and took our captain away. At that time, you two were on a conference call with the main office, so we didn’t notify you.”
“Great!” Tu Cheng burst into ironic laughter, “What a wonderful stealthy departure, a plane lands, takes your captain, after almost three days, I only found out now.” How could he forget, the Huo family from Imperial City conducted the aircraft manufacturing business.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he got, “You all, this fake-out was performed beautifully. Where am I supposed to put my face? Can I still show it in public?” He pointed at Lu Jin, expressing his anger.
