Zhao Shenbing's pupils trembled, his face filled with disbelief as he looked at the old patriarch. "Old patriarch, you... You're not joking, are you? King-level experts aren't that easily killed, are they?"
The old patriarch's gaze turned icy cold as he stared at Zhao Shenbing and said in a deep voice, "I know what you're thinking, but I'm telling you the truth!"
"From today onwards, Mr. Wang and President Shen are the most esteemed guests of our Zhao family."
"If any of you dare to offend Mr. Wang, you will be immediately expelled from the Zhao family!"
"Furthermore, no one is allowed to reveal a single word about what happened today. Whoever dares to leak anything, exposing Mr. Wang's identity, will be mercilessly killed!"
His words were resolute and filled with killing intent!
As soon as the words fell, everyone present felt as if they had fallen into an icehouse, trembling with fear.
Even Zhao Shenbing, a Seven-Star War God-level expert, couldn't help but shudder.
At this moment, everyone knew that the old patriarch meant business.
After finishing his words, the old patriarch glanced at everyone present, turned around, and left, humming a tune with a cheerful demeanor.
With the Lord on his ship, the Zhao family would prosper from now on!
As long as he maintained a close relationship with Wang Chao, even a small favor bestowed by Wang Chao would be enough to elevate the wealth and status of the Zhao family.
"The old patriarch hasn't been this happy in a long time."
"The old patriarch's strength is unfathomable, and he has experienced many storms. If he's this happy, it means that Wang Chao's identity is definitely extraordinary. We can't afford to offend him."
"Spread the order and thoroughly clean the rooms for President Shen and Mr. Wang."
"No matter what requests they make, they must be fulfilled!"
"Everyone present must keep this matter strictly confidential. Whoever dares to leak it will be mercilessly killed!"
The two middle-aged men from the Zhao family exchanged glances and saw the shock in each other's eyes. They immediately issued orders to maintain secrecy.
Zhao Shenbing stared at the door of the ship's medical office, his gaze darkening.
He still didn't believe that Wang Chao could easily kill a King-level expert!
Inside the ship's medical office, only Shen Bing and Wang Chao remained.
Shen Bing looked at Wang Chao with a puzzled expression. "Who exactly are you, Lord?"
"The old patriarch is dizzy and mistook me for someone else."
Wang Chao remained calm as he spoke to Shen Bing, "Your treatment isn't complete yet. Go back and rest. In thirty minutes, you'll be completely fine."
With that, without any further explanation, he picked up Shen Bing and placed her gently on the bed, covering her with a blanket.
Shen Bing had been watching Wang Chao intently from beginning to end, her eyes filled with doubt.
Fuzhou City was the capital city of Hu Jian Province, and the Zhao family was the largest and most influential family in Fuzhou City. They held high positions of power and were absolute giants in the region!
To receive such respect, admiration, and even public kneeling from these influential figures, Wang Chao's identity as a 'Lord' must be truly extraordinary.
However, such a prominent figure willingly worked as the head of security in her company.
It seemed like his talents were being greatly underutilized!
"Could it be that he came to my company because of me?"
Shen Bing looked at Wang Chao's profile, lost in her own thoughts.
At this realization, her face immediately turned red, and her heart raced.
Then, she thought about the scene where Wang Chao had rejected her earlier, feeling a sense of disappointment. She wondered, "If he truly likes me and wants to pursue me, why did he refuse my invitation on the plane when we were returning to the country?"
She pondered back and forth but couldn't understand why Wang Chao, after rejecting her, would come to her company as a security chief, all while keeping it a secret from her.
If it weren't for Liu Yifei, she might not have known about Wang Chao's presence in her company.
"Could it be that he wants to play hard to get with me?"
"Yes, that must be it. He examined my body before, so how could he be indifferent to me?"
"Men really know how to beat around the bush. If he had taken a more assertive approach and embraced me, there's no way I could have refused him, right?"
As she thought of this possibility, her face reddened once again, and her cheeks felt hot.
"Your heartbeat is fast, and your body temperature is a bit abnormal. Did the treatment not work?"
At that moment, Wang Chao furrowed his brow slightly and placed his hand on Shen Bing's head. He felt that her body temperature had increased compared to before, which puzzled him.
"I-I'm fine."
Shen Bing blushed and immediately pushed Wang Chao's hand away, hurriedly covering herself with the blanket and hiding under the covers, feeling embarrassed.
As Wang Chao looked at Shen Bing, his gaze filled with doubt, he wondered, "Could it be that my acupuncture treatment failed?"
"There's no reason for it. I've been practicing medicine for so long, and it has never failed before!"
"Why is her body temperature so abnormally high?"
He couldn't figure it out, no matter how much he thought.
In the night, the three Swan Cruise ships had left the waters of the Dragon Kingdom and arrived in international waters.
They dropped anchor, moored in the vast ocean.
The shimmering lights on the ships were particularly eye-catching.
At the rear cabin of the third Swan Cruise ship...
A sailor sneaked to an unattended area, looked around to ensure no one was present, and immediately threw a thick rope into the sea, securing one end of the rope to the railing.
Splash!
At that moment, a large hand wearing a sleeve arrow emerged from the water, gripping the thick rope.
This hand was powerful, with muscles bulging out like explosive strength.
On the forearm, there was even a tattoo of a skull, a chilling sight.
With the appearance of this arm, a middle-aged man wearing goggles and an oxygen tube in his mouth emerged from the water.
His gaze was cold as ice, devoid of any human emotions.
He held onto the rope and quickly climbed up towards the Swan Cruise ship, moving swiftly and silently.
During his ascent, the sailors above dropped three more ropes.
Splash!
As the ropes descended, the sea surface revealed one burly man after another wearing goggles and displaying fierce gazes.
Each of them had a skull tattoo on their arms, gripping the ropes and climbing up.
Before long, the rear cabin was filled with over thirty burly men.
"Follow me."
The sailor led the group to a warehouse on the Swan Cruise ship and said, "The sailor uniforms, waiter uniforms, bartenders, and chefs' uniforms are all here. Change into them."
As he spoke, he pointed to the location of the uniforms.
The thirty-plus men nodded and immediately discarded their goggles, oxygen tanks, and other gear, replacing them with the uniforms.
Originally dressed in black diving suits, they transformed into bartenders, waiters, mixologists, chefs, and more.
The sailor produced many name badges and handed them out, saying, "Remember your positions. Do not make any rash moves during this period and await further orders."
"Understood," the thirty-plus men replied in unison.
"Alright, go to work." The sailor's voice was solemn.
The thirty-plus men took their name badges and left one by one.
After the sailor counted all the equipment, he retrieved the ropes and threw them into the warehouse. He locked the warehouse door and was the last to leave.
Inside the warehouse, besides the belongings of the burly men, the floor was covered in a mass of tightly packed corpses, blood forming rivers.
These were the substituted bartenders, chefs, waiters, and bartenders.
In the luxurious suite on the top floor.
Shen Bing had already finished her treatment and changed into the close-fitting clothes and new attire sent by Zhao Lao, returning to her room.
At this moment, the presidential suite had been thoroughly cleaned, with all the bedding and sheets replaced.
Wang Chao inspected it and did not find any more traces of powder, finally feeling relieved.
It was now nighttime, and the Swan Cruise ship on the third deck was anchored in the open sea, brightly lit.
Apart from the ship with Wang Chao, Shen Bing, and others, the other two ships resounded with deafening music.
From the deck, one could see a party in full swing from the first floor to the top floor. Many men and women twisted their bodies on the dance floor, shouting and screaming.
Some bold men embraced women on both sides and entered their rooms without even opening the curtains, engaging in passionate activities.
Others who weren't interested in sex were experiencing panoramic VR, playing pool, playing golf, and some were even playing human golf.
In the crowd, some wealthy men threw money on the ground, making many attractive models kneel down and pick up the bills with their mouths.
There were even men dressing up women as mermaids and driving them into the pool, where they used fishing rods to "catch" these mermaids.
Here, there was nothing you could not imagine and nothing they couldn't do for entertainment.
"These young people really know how to have fun."
Wang Chao stood on the balcony of the presidential suite, watching the men and women on the two ships, filled with emotion.
The gathering of the wealthy exceeded his imagination—they knew how to party!
Standing virtually impossible Wang Chao, Shen Bing also observed everything happening on the two ships, furrowing her brows slightly and saying, "I do not like this kind of gathering."
