Navigator: I have a double six-story house

Chapter 121 After My White Moonlight Married, I Became a Billionaire

Griffiths was making tea in the reception room, while Zhang's mother went to the side room and had changed into a completely new set of clothes.

The C-grade leather armor is form-fitting and lightweight, definitely much better than the Blue Star coat she wore before.

The wrist guard covers the area from the wrist to the forearm, without affecting the grip on the sword.

She looked at herself in the mirror and nodded in satisfaction.

The person in the mirror looked dashing and spirited; they truly were themselves.

Then she opened the door.

Felix was standing at the door, holding a second cup of tea.

"Ms. Zhang, how do you feel about this equipment? If you have any other needs, please feel free to let us know."

"Help me check," Zhang's mother said bluntly, "Are there any good crew members on Midway Island?"

Felix nearly spilled the tea in his hand.

Are you recruiting crew members?

"It's too strenuous for me to run dungeons alone," Zhang's mother said calmly. "I need to find a few people to share the burden."

Felix put down his teacup and nodded respectfully: "This—there really is, and quite a lot."

"Initially, there were many crew members waiting to be taken away on Midway, but..."

"Just what?"

"But they made some remarks before—" Felix carefully chose his words, "that might have been somewhat offensive to you."

Zhang Ma understood.

It was those guys who were mocking her.

"Whatever." She started walking downstairs. "As long as I can fight, I don't care about my foul mouth."

Felix followed behind, silently reflecting on his actions.

Ms. Zhang's personality does indeed bear some resemblance to the rumored personality of Captain Su Qing.

The two walked out of the Chamber of Commerce.

As soon as Zhang's mother stepped out the door, she saw a scene that surprised her.

On the road leading from the port to the Chamber of Commerce, the crew members, who were originally scattered, had now spontaneously lined up in a row.

One after another, they stood ramrod straight.

Zhang's mother recognized the person at the very front.

He's the tall, thin guy who used to yell that "anyone's being pulled in."

At that moment, he wore a smile that looked more like a grimace as he bowed to Zhang's mother.

"Captain, do you need any more crew?"

Zhang Ma looked at the line in front of her without saying a word.

Her gaze swept from one end of the line to the other, finally settling on the very end.

In the very back corner of the line, a hooded man was standing against the wall.

He didn't queue; he just held a glass of wine and looked over at us through the crowd.

Their eyes met briefly.

the other side.

Su Qing closed her laptop and rubbed her temples.

Zhang's mother's matter has been temporarily settled. Although Felix was beaten up, judging from the boy's attitude, he shouldn't neglect Zhang's mother.

There is one more thing.

Su Qing turned her head and glanced in the direction of the cabin; Selena had walked quite quickly just now.

Wang Yao squatted on the deck, elbows propped on his knees, with an expression that suggested he was enjoying the spectacle.

"Su-zai, aren't you going to go and comfort her?"

"What are you trying to coax?"

"Selena," Wang Yao gestured towards the cabin, "if I were a woman, I would have been angry too when you said 'It's not like that'."

Su Qing frowned.

Was there anything wrong with what he said?

When Zhang's mother asked Selena if she was his girlfriend, he truthfully answered no. What's there to be angry about?

Li Daniu strolled over from the side and patted Su Qing on the shoulder.

"Wang Yao is right, you should go and take a look."

"Brother Niu, you also think I did something wrong?"

Li Daniu thought for a moment, then carefully chose his words: "It's not that I did something wrong, it's just—how should I put it—"

He spent a long time trying to organize his thoughts, but eventually gave up.

"Just go, that's all."

Su Qing stood up and walked towards the cabin.

Behind him, Wang Yao muttered under his breath, "He can't even understand something like this. It's a wonder he's usually so smart."

Li Daniu nodded in agreement.

Xiaoqing has been intelligent since childhood and is good at many things, except for one thing.

Matters of the heart.

Inside the cabin, Selena was sitting at the table.

There was a book on the table with the title "After My White Moonlight Married, I Became a Billionaire" on the cover. She rested her chin on one hand and turned the pages with the other.

He flipped through the pages very slowly, as if he were reading attentively.

Su Qing walked in and sat down opposite her.

Selena didn't look up.

"Selena."

"Um.

""

She responded and continued turning the page.

Su Qing wiped her forehead, feeling that the air was a bit stuffy.

"What Zhang's mother just said—"

"What did they say?" Selena asked casually. "I wasn't really paying attention."

After saying that, Selena picked up the book and turned around.

Su Qing stared at the book in her hand and remained silent.

The book is upside down.

The text on the cover is upside down, and the picture on the first page is also upside down.

Su Qing opened her mouth, but ultimately did not expose the young lady.

He didn't know why, but his intuition told him that pointing it out now would have serious consequences.

"That's good." Su Qing changed direction. "I thought you were unhappy."

"Why should I be unhappy?" Selena finally raised her head, a smile as usual on her face. "The captain is telling the truth, I'm not yours—"

She paused for a moment.

"Not what?"

"It's nothing." Selena lowered her head and turned a page of the upside-down book.

Su Qing felt that the conversation was heading in a very dangerous direction, but he couldn't quite put his finger on why.

He was quiet for a while.

Outside the cabin, you can hear the sound of waves crashing against the hull, and the wooden tables and chairs creak as they rock slightly.

"Selena."

"Um?"

"You are one of the most important people on my ship."

Selena's fingers, which were turning the pages of the book, stopped.

Su Qing continued, "No matter what Zhang's mother said, your position on the Sunshine will not change because of anything."

He said this very seriously.

The Sunny's success today is inseparable from the intelligence, tools, and tactical support provided by Selena.

Without her, they wouldn't have been able to clear those previous dungeons at all.

This is a fact.

Selena stared at Su Qing's face for several seconds.

Then she closed the book in her hand.

"I've remembered what the captain said."

Her tone returned to its usual gentle cadence, with a slight upward inflection at the end.

Su Qing breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that the air was no longer so stuffy.

"Shall we get ready to go?"

"Okay." Selena stood up, and as she walked to the door, she suddenly turned back.

"But Captain."

"What's wrong?"

"I'll make you remove the word 'one of' sooner or later."

She left the cabin as soon as she finished speaking, her words coming out quickly and giving Su Qing no time to react.

Su Qing sat there, stunned for a long time.

Should we remove "one of"?

He understood Selena's meaning perfectly well.

However, he always felt that the Sunny's current situation was not optimistic enough, and he didn't know if he could meet Selena's expectations.

Perhaps only when the Sun is powerful enough will he be able to truly reciprocate Selena's feelings.
