Yun Qiao put on her clothes and lay down, closing her eyes to relax.
She didn't think about anything because she was so groggy after breakfast that she just wanted to sleep.
The ship hadn't sailed yet.
Human voices could be faintly heard outside. They were passengers and relatives on the public deck making speeches and shouting loudly; they were blown here by the sea breeze.
Yun Qiao fell asleep in a daze.
It was a very full night's sleep.
When she woke up, she felt the ship rocking slightly. She went to the bathroom and saw the endless sea from the bathroom window.
The sun shines on the sea in the middle of the afternoon, and the giant ship stirs up snow waves that are shimmering in the scorching sun.
It's already half past one in the afternoon.
Yun Qiao missed lunch time and was really hungry now, so she quickly washed up and went out to find something to eat.
After opening the door, she saw a waiter in a golden uniform, who came forward and asked her diligently: "Miss, what do you need?"
Yun Qiao knew that there were several waiters dedicated to serving the state cabin, and nodded skillfully: "I want to go to dinner. Is there any restaurant open for lunch now?"
"The special restaurant shared by the first-class and first-class cabins serves meals 24 hours a day." The waiter said, "Do you need me to get you a menu? You can wait in the room, and I will bring it after you order."
Yun Qiao felt it was troublesome.
She shook her head: "I'll go to the restaurant to eat."
The waiter asked her if she knew where the restaurant was and if she needed to be shown the way.
At this time, Xi Lanting's door also opened.
Yun Qiao turned around and greeted him: "Uncle Qi."
Xi Lanting nodded.
Yun Qiao asked him again: "Have Uncle Qi had lunch? I'm about to go to the restaurant."
Xi Lanting: "Let's go together, I haven't eaten either."
The waiter led the way for the two of them, bypassing several corridors and arriving at the special restaurant.
This place is within the scope of first class and special class cabins, and guests in ordinary cabins and full berths cannot get on.
There are about thirty or forty rooms in the first-class cabin. It's just past lunch time. A few people are still chatting after eating. There are several tables scattered in the restaurant.
Yun Qiao and Xi Lanting chose a table near the back.
After she sat down, someone looked back at her and smiled at her. Yun Qiao realized that Cheng Li and Zhu Yucheng were also in the restaurant. There was a young couple at the table. They chatted animatedly with each other and did not leave even after eating.
Yun Qiao wanted to eat here, but Cheng Li didn't come.
The waiter in the restaurant asked them if they wanted Chinese or Western food. Xi Lanting ordered Chinese food, and Yun Qiao ordered an egg noodles.
After they finished eating, Cheng Li, Zhu Yucheng and others hadn't left yet.
Yun Qiao: "Uncle Qi, I'm going to say hello."
Xi Lanting was eating small oranges given by the restaurant to supplement his vitamins. He nodded.
Cheng Li and Zhu Yucheng were old acquaintances of the young couple. They were from Guangzhou and had close ties with the Cheng family.
When Yun Qiao came over, Cheng Li introduced them to him.
"If you have nothing to do later, let's go to the coffee shop next door to play mahjong. Someone has already started a game over there." The young lady said to Cheng Li and Zhu Yucheng.
Gambling is common during long journeys.
Cheng Li smiled and said, "I'm afraid it won't work today. I'll go back to catch up on some sleep later. I didn't get much sleep last night."
The young couple stood up to say goodbye. Yun Qiao, Cheng Li, and Zhu Yucheng said a few words.
Zhu Yucheng invited Yun Qiao: "Go and play cards with us."
"Second brother, don't you want to catch up on your sleep?"
Cheng Li answered: "It's just excuses."
Yun Qiao laughed.
She glanced at Xi Lanting and said without saying anything, "I'll see if there's anything going on with Master Qi first."
"He has an entourage following him." Zhu Yucheng pushed up his glasses, "Yun Qiao, you are not so considerate towards others."
Yun Qiao: "He is sick..."
"He is not anyone like you." Zhu Yucheng said.
It is indeed not the case. Xi Lanting and Yun Qiao are not related by blood, so they are not people. But Yun Qiao is very willing to take care of him. Who told him to be good-looking?
She pursed her lips and smiled, no longer answering Zhu Yucheng.
