Chapter 1108: Chapter 571 Setting Sail - Spoiling the Scenery_2
As Guo Jingya made brief introductions for both parties, a middle-aged man stood up and extended his hands, "Is this Boss Yan whom Xiao Ya often mentions? Indeed a youthful hero, young and promising. That girl Xiao Ya loves to mess around; thanks to your help, she has now become independent..."
Yan Fei paused for a moment before extending his hand to shake hands with him and humbly replied with a smile, "Not at all, Uncle, just call me Xiao Fei. Nowadays, we are more friends than business partners, isn’t it normal for friends to help each other out?"
After speaking, Boss Yan felt quite pleased with himself. Having heard that there were quite a few people in the villa, he had started to consider carefully what to say. These few sentences had indeed cost him some brain cells—but having said them, he felt disgusted and wanted to throw up. He really wasn’t used to such roundabout and polite words.
However, he had no idea that the middle-aged man opposite him, while remaining calm and still speaking courteously, was actually screaming in his mind: It’s him, it’s him, it’s definitely him...
Yan Fei, of course, recognized him; this was the unlucky one who had been targeted by kidnappers last time. Yan Fei had recognized him as soon as he entered the room, but he didn’t expect the man to stand up and shake hands with him.
In fact, he had some respect for this middle-aged man in his heart.
It’s said that the son of wealth cannot sit and wait for trouble; although this man had bad luck, he managed to maintain his bottom line for so long despite being tortured by a gang of desperados, which was truly admirable.
Only in times of crisis can one’s true nature be revealed.
Just like some people appear ordinary but always step up in special circumstances—daring to rush into a fire to save others at the risk of their own lives, or selflessly diving in to rescue someone from drowning...
Without experiencing it firsthand, one cannot understand the dangers involved, nor can they imagine how precious it is for these people to act without hesitation in such moments.
It reminds Yan Fei of an incident from his childhood at Sancha River where a kid playing with a paper airplane got hit by a tractor. At that time, it was a group of idle young men loitering on the street who helped carry the injured to the hospital.
Upon arrival, these young men took turns helping with the oxygen bag—a very primitive oxygen bag, the details of which Yan Fei wasn’t clear on, but it required continuous pressing. In the blazing heat, the sight of those young men sweating profusely has stayed with him!
Normally, these young men were labeled as ruffians, but the fact that they acted this way in a critical moment at least proves one thing: their nature wasn’t bad—after all, the truly wicked are few and far between. People like Old Ou and Heizi are now considered ’successful individuals’ of Sancha River, right?
And to dare to maintain one’s bottom line in the face of desperados is itself a heroic act—you should know that the one kidnapped before him was very cooperative and came back without experiencing any wrongdoing.
Of course, opinions on such matters vary. To some, if you’re that wealthy, of course, it’s more important to preserve your life when it comes down to it. Why endure so much suffering without cooperating if not to bring it upon oneself?
People vary, and so do their views.
But Yan Fei just felt that this kind of unyielding character was indeed admirable.
After sitting down, a few of the Guo family elders just casually chatted with Yan Fei for a while, briefly inquiring about Yan Fei’s current ventures and expressing that, since he and Xiao Ya were friends, he was considered one of their younger generation as well, and that he should speak up if he needed any assistance.
Xu Xiaoyan was even warmly chatted up by the two elder females.
Yan Fei found the whole family quite kind and approachable, thinking to himself that people with culture and achievements are indeed easier to communicate with. Those accustomed to putting on airs and being difficult were often half-empty vessels—the professors he met in university were all very approachable, even when he was dressed so earthenly. On the other hand, some students would tilt their heads back at the sight of his appearance, resembling cocks crowing at dawn.
What he didn’t know was that The Fifth Young Master Guo’s eyes were bulging on the side—if only his friends could receive such treatment from the elders in his family, he would die content!
As Guo Jingya finished packing and they were preparing to leave, the elders reminded them, "We’ve all heard that Xiao Fei is a brave man capable of wrestling sharks at sea. When you’re on the water, Xiao Ya, make sure he takes good care of you!"
It wasn’t until he saw the boat that Yan Fei realized their last words were just being polite, and he also understood why Guo Jingya was so happy—this was a brand new luxury yacht, fully equipped with everything including comprehensive safety gear, and even a crew of lifeguards.
Guo Jingya stood at the bow, high above like a guardian deity, looking down and commanding down to those below, "You’ve all brought us here, aren’t you going back yet?"
Below, The Fifth Young Master Guo was carrying a large bag, "Kind sister, we’ve followed you all the way here, and now you want us to return. Besides, look, there are only a few of you on such a big boat, can you manage it? We came up because we care; if something happens, isn’t it better to have more people to look out for each other?"
The Third Young Master Guo nodded repeatedly by his side, "Mm, Xiao Wu’s words are exactly how I feel. Come help me bring my stuff aboard; I can’t be at ease if you go by yourself..."
