In the evening, Lin Chuxue slowly woke up. She felt like she had regained some strength, but she still felt like her life was irregular for the first time. When she got up, she saw Xu Cheng pushing the dinner table over.
Lin Chuxue glared at him with a face full of resentment.
"Time to eat."
Lin Chuxue lazily stretched. "So tired, I'm starving."
When she got off the bed, she said in surprise, "What time is it now? I forgot that I was going to have afternoon tea with Mr. Haber's wife. I basically stood her up."
"It's already night, and I went to find Haber. His wife already knows that you are too tired and is sleeping, so it's fine."
Just at this moment, Haber's son, Zawa, knocked on the door, walked in, and handed Xu Cheng an invitation. "My father asked me to give this to Mr. Xu. He hopes that Mr. Xu can attend the party on the cruise tonight."
"Okay, I got it." Xu Cheng nodded and put the invitation on the table.
Lin Chuxue looked at the invitation while eating dinner, and she subconsciously asked Xu Cheng, "When did you meet this Middle Eastern tycoon?"
Xu Cheng said, "He's the second son of the sheikh, and he doesn't have any great ambitions. Anyway, his older brother is going to inherit the position, so he just needs to spend money and live a carefree life. Only people like this are suitable to be friends with, because he has nothing to take advantage of you. "
Lin Chuxue narrowed her beautiful big eyes. "But why do I feel like he's trying to get on your good side, or maybe he's very polite to you?"
"That's normal. I'm an executioner, and he's a tycoon. It's reasonable for the rich to suck up to the executioner." Xu Cheng smiled. "I'm not going to the party tonight. I know Haber wants to introduce me to his family, but I think it'll be boring. I'll just hang out with you for a few days."
"No, I'm going back to school tomorrow." Lin Chuxue suddenly seemed to have changed her mind.
"Didn't we agree on a week?" Xu Cheng was puzzled.
Lin Chuxue shyly lowered her head and went to eat.
She was a bit scared of staying in the same room with Xu Cheng, afraid that this bastard wouldn't be tired, so she decided to leave.
"Let's go to the banquet tonight." Lin Chuxue picked up a napkin and elegantly wiped her lips. Then, she said to Xu Cheng, "I know you like to be alone and don't like crowds, but as your wife, I have to help you with networking in the future."
"Aren't you tired?" Xu Cheng said, "I remember Honey, you don't like these kinds of parties and banquets the most."
"You don't understand. My mom said that most of the time, men are always careless and need women to handle the details for them. This is called sociology, and it's also called the accumulation of connections. I told you before, I don't want to be a vase. If I can help you, let me do it."
"You don't need to help me with anything. You just need to enjoy your life." Xu Cheng smiled.
Lin Chuxue looked at him with determination.
Xu Cheng bitterly smiled. "Okay, as long as you like it. In the future, you'll be in charge of my money and assets, okay? "
Lin Chuxue raised an eyebrow. "Do you want to be in charge of someone else? Let me tell you, Xu Cheng, when I graduate, it will be time for me to settle the family debt with you. "
Xu Cheng made a gentlemanly gesture. "Yes, Queen."
Lin Chuxue smiled and went back to eating in satisfaction.
At night, Haber lent Xu Cheng his Rolls-Royce Phantom to take Lin Chuxue to a shopping mall in Dubai to buy clothes for the banquet. He also had a chauffeur to drive them around Dubai.
The banquet was set on one of the largest cruise ships in the world, one that was big enough to show off the wealth of the Arab Royal Family.
A lot of family members came, as well as all the rich people doing business in Dubai. Lin Chuxue was wearing a white evening gown, and with her unique snow-white skin, she looked like she didn't belong in the mortal world.
Xu Cheng was wearing a simple suit, and Lin Chuxue handed the invitation card to the master of ceremonies before they boarded the ship one after another.
In the activity area on the first deck of the cruise, Haber had been waiting for a long time. Seeing Xu Cheng and Lin Chuxue, he came up to greet them. Haber's wife looked at Lin Chuxue and had a strange smile on her face. "Mr. Xu is a very capable person."
At first, Lin Chuxue didn't react to the double entendre, and only after Haber was laughing sneakily did Lin Chuxue awkwardly pinch Xu Cheng. It was this b * stard who made her feel so uncomfortable and couldn't get out of bed today, delaying her afternoon tea date with Xu Cheng.
There were a lot of people boarding the ship, and Xu Cheng curiously asked Haber, "Why are we suddenly invited to this kind of banquet?"
"I'm going to show you the most luxurious nightlife here. This cruise belongs to the king of our emirate, and it will land in the Persian Gulf every month. This isn't really a banquet, it's more like a party. This cruise ship has everything you need, such as an indoor swimming pool, sea fishing, an indoor dance theater, a casino, underground boxing … Enjoy it. I told you, since you're here, I will show you the wind speed here and the standard that Dubai should have. There are a lot of rich people here tonight, and most of them are from Asia. You have to know, there are still a lot of hidden rich Chinese people here."
Haber hugged his arm and said, "Let me know what you want to play tonight. If you don't have enough money, I can lend you some first. The most important thing is to have fun."
Xu Cheng smiled.
Haber, you really know me. You know I'm short on money recently, so you actually let me come to an event where I can slaughter all the rich people here. I didn't think money was tight before, but now I feel like it's too tight. That old b * stard Hawking asked me for 5 billion, and now I only have less than 10 billion left in my account. Haber's research and development fees will only get more insane in the future. So, don't blame me for plundering people tonight.
Lin Chuxue saw Xu Cheng's expression and asked curiously, "Didn't you say you weren't interested in these kinds of events? Why do I feel like you're very excited? "
"Really?" Xu Cheng's expression immediately returned.
"You think I don't know you?" Lin Chuxue rolled her eyes. "Do you think I don't know what you're thinking?"
Xu Cheng teased, "Then tell me what I'm thinking right now."
"Nothing good." Lin Chuxue snorted. "I'm too lazy to care about you. I'm going with Haber's wife, and I'll go find you later."
"Where are you going?"
Lin Chuxue said, "His wife wants to find me some female friends to get to know. I realized that my connections are a bit lacking. Before, I went to Huaxia with you before I even graduated, and now that I'm planning to help you, I realized that my social skills are really lacking. At least, I don't have many friends. So, you won't let me get to know some friends, but I promise you, I won't have any contact with the opposite sex. Are you satisfied now? "
Xu Cheng said, "That's more like it. My wife knows me best."
"Yeah, I know you too well." Lin Chuxue rolled her eyes at him. "Because I know that if you interact with the opposite sex, you will beat them to death."
"Am I that domineering?" Xu Cheng was speechless.
Lin Chuxue smiled and said, "You are already showing signs of it, and it's getting more and more serious."
Xu Cheng bitterly smiled. In fact, he knew it himself.
Chuxue, if even you in this world abandon me in the end, then no one will be willing to stand on my side. So, you are the only one I have left, and I won't allow anyone to touch you!
After Lin Chuxue caught up to Haber's wife, she suddenly turned around and looked back at Xu Cheng with a smile. "But I like how domineering you are, only towards me!"
A smile appeared on the corner of Xu Cheng's mouth.
