Yue Qi instinctively didn't want to continue, so he changed the topic. "Aren't you going to introduce me to an important person?"
He did change the topic, but there seemed to be some kind of magic. The bullet that had missed the target returned to the bullseye. He subconsciously said, "If it's Mr. Old Ayers …"
"Don't joke around. The thing I regret the most in my life is not rushing up, kneeling beside him, and kissing the back of his hand!" Smith's words were exaggerated and sincere.
"And then being pressed to the ground by those black suits?"
Smith didn't hear the small details in his words. He just expressed it in an irrational manner. "That was worth it, York. That was worth it! Mr. Old Ayers is my spiritual mentor. Maybe if he touches me, he can change my fate forever! "
Left or right, death or life?
Yue Qi moved his lips, but in the end, he didn't say anything about the scenery. He just said, "I just want to know someone who can make me feel at ease now."
"Oh, that's right. I still remember! Forgive me for being a little excited just now. I hope Miss Bai Xinyan hasn't left yet. "
As he spoke, Smith led Yue Qi through the exhibition area.
Basically, on every large cruise ship, there was an exhibition area that displayed some works of art. They would also host some small auction activities. These exhibitions generally had limited space and resources. If they didn't have something, they would lack something. If they did, it wouldn't be a big deal.
But this time, it was different in Jade Light.
The exhibition area wasn't just in Area C12. In fact, Area C, which was a commercial shopping area, had been transformed into an exhibition hall. Yue Qi had been here once. Four areas with tens of thousands of exhibits. Of course, it was nothing compared to those large-scale trade fairs on land. But as a cruise ship that had been sailing at sea for dozens of days, the scale was already very large.
There was no doubt that it was being operated as a large-scale theme.
Yue Qi also knew that the things on display so far were more or less special. According to Smith, these were some advanced products that hadn't been accepted by most people in time.
To put it bluntly, they didn't conform to laws, conventions, or even moral norms.
Yue Qi felt that it was understandable. Although these exhibits were strange and different, they had a relatively unified theme.
They were closely related to "aberrations."
Abnormality was a gray area, and there were too many things that went against traditional morality.
Yue Qi's Wuyue Pharmaceutical Company's main business had yet to reach this level. It was only a little related to some fields. This little bit was also the heaviest tax, and at the same time, it brought considerable profits.
From this point alone, one might be able to discern some sort of direction.
Of course, the people who boarded the Jade Light and stayed there until now or were currently rushing to the ship were more or less related to the distortion.
They were either engaged in related industries and ran businesses in this area, or like Yue Qi, they were voluntarily or involuntarily associated with aberrations.
As for Jeffery Ells, of course, he also belonged to this group. As such a legendary tycoon, it was not surprising that he was involved in any industry. However, there was one thing that Yue Qi still could not get over.
That image … He thought that if he wanted to see a similar image of Jeffrey Ells, he would have to look for it in a documentary. In fact, even in documentaries, Jeffery Els would not be seen at this age.
It was as if time had turned back a hundred years.
"Hey, York. I have to say … "
Smith could not help but continue the previous topic. On the one hand, it was because of his own emotions. On the other hand, there was indeed an atmosphere of whispering in the exhibition area that they passed through.
There were not many people who actually went to see the exhibits. They gathered in groups of three or four, gesturing, surprised, and whispering to each other.
Although their images were different, they could be grouped together with Smith beside him. They were all people who had been run over by something incredible, had survived a disaster, or had hit the jackpot. No matter what, they were all emotional reactions.
Smith also reached out and pointed to Yue Qi, letting him see the reactions of the people around him.
"If it's possible tonight, when I point out Jeffery Ells to you, either you doubt your eyes, or you doubt the intelligence of the top tycoons at the scene …"
"I don't think I'll doubt anything at that time," Yue Qi murmured. "Because I'm doubting it now."
He inexplicably thought of Yue Zheng, his own child, and then whispered, "Maybe I've still underestimated the power of the distortion."
Smith finally noticed Yue Qi's strange reaction. In this kind of situation, he naturally made an empathic connection.
"York, let me guess. What did you see?"
Yue Qi didn't have the energy to play guessing games. He waved his hand and directly revealed the answer. "I also saw a Jeffery, the Jeffery in the wheelchair."
Looking at Smith's widening eyes, Yue Qi spread his hands. "He's in the long corridor behind us, but I'm not sure if he's the one in the documentary. Actually, I still don't understand how you guys recognized him. "
Smith was stunned for two seconds before he subconsciously replied, "It's enough that someone trustworthy recognized him."
Smith was stunned not only because of Yue Qi's answer, but also because he had received an excessive amount of information at the same time. "Hey, look over there. Bai Xinyan, the one I want to introduce … the important person who recognized Old Ells. She's looking over. "
Yue Qi looked up when he heard this and happened to meet the gaze that was cast over from not far away. Unsurprisingly, the person was the same as the name he heard. It was a pleasant-looking woman.
However, there was something unexpected. This important person was actually wearing a white suit, giving off the air of a professional.
Of course, she wasn't that strict right now. The front of her shirt was half open, revealing a dark blue shirt. She looked a little casual, but it was enough to clearly distinguish her from the surrounding businessmen and women.
Yue Qi and Smith didn't know why Bai Xinyan would cast her gaze over from afar, but if they missed this opportunity, they definitely wouldn't be qualified businessmen.
Therefore, Smith and Yue Qi both sped up their footsteps and took the initiative to greet her. The former began to greet her from seven or eight meters away.
"Dr. Bai, we meet again."
He took a few steps forward and turned around to introduce to Yue Qi. "This is Dr. Clay's most outstanding student and collaborator, Dr. Bai Xinyan."
He then said to Bai Xinyan, "My most capable partner in the Old Continent, Mr. Yue Qi, the chairman of Xia City's Wuyue Pharmaceuticals. If I remember correctly, you guys should be from the same hometown. "
