The crew member hesitated slightly before rushing back to report to his boss. Not long after, he received a message, "You may stay, but please do not wander around."
Director Li, of course, would not wander around idly. Upon receiving the request, he immediately went to make a jubilant phone call to the media to arrange for interviews.
Nothing on Ling Yichuan’s yacht was moved. Afterwards, simply sending a boat to tow it would quickly bring it back to the shore.
He walked over and said to a first officer, "Thank you for your help! I am Ling Yichuan from the Ling Consortium. This is Leng Yunlin from the Leng Group and Qin Haochen (Qin Xian’s formal name) from Qin Enterprises. We truly appreciate your enthusiastic assistance! If possible, could we meet your captain? I would like to express my sincerest gratitude to him in person."
The first officer smiled, "When you’re out and about, troubles are inevitable. We appreciate your kind words."
Ling Yichuan was very puzzled; he glanced at Qin Xian and Leng Yunlin next to him. In Huaxia Country, mentioning their influential family names would usually earn some respect, yet this captain was odd, not even showing his face!
However, it was hard to say they weren’t warm-hearted—they were the first to receive the distress call and came to rescue. Moreover, they led them to the lounge, distributed drinks and food, and hosted them warmly, not neglecting any courtesies.
Perhaps it could only be said that this captain had a reclusive personality and was not fond of meeting people.
As for Yu Zexiao, he never liked wandering around aimlessly. However, he didn’t enjoy being crowded with a bunch of people either. Thus, he walked slowly to the stern of the ship alone.
As for the life jacket, he immediately took it off since they had switched to another boat and no longer needed to wear it. Alone at the rear of the ship, facing the sea breeze, even wearing only the simplest T-shirt and casual pants, his tall figure and strikingly handsome looks still stood out impressively.
Even though Jian Anning had just had a falling out with him, as his assistant, it was definitely her responsibility to come find him when he disappeared.
At this moment, still wearing her life jacket, she walked up to Yu Zexiao, and he frowned slightly, "Silly woman, why are you still wearing the life jacket? That scared of dying?"
This guy, couldn’t he speak nicely for once! What should have been a kind remark, once filtered through his arrogant egotism, immediately felt unpleasant.
Despite internally rolling her eyes, she slowly took off the life jacket. The knot at the lower back part had become a dead knot due to being tied too tightly initially, making it troublesome to untie. Also, due to her attempts, the belt had gotten even tighter.
"Silly woman, how can you be so dim! You can’t even untie a knot!" Yu Zexiao turned back, seeing her sweating profusely while struggling with the knot, he couldn’t help but berate her. He immediately came over, his slender fingers deftly untying the knot, complaining as he did so, "You claim to be a bright University of Toronto graduate, but your intelligence really doesn’t seem to match! Maybe you bought those credits, otherwise, I don’t see how you could have graduated!"
It was just a knot, and he had escalated it to questioning her intelligence. Jian Anning got angry, "I think you’re the one who’s not like a normal man, not having even a single girlfriend around!"
