"You're happy with what you're doing, but your cooking skills haven't improved in ten years."

Bai Weiran remained noncommittal.

Indeed, Shimo said the same thing about him.

A high EQ statement: The quality has always been very stable.

Low emotional intelligence speech: Never progressing, never regressing.

But that doesn't stop him from having a heart that enjoys it.

"Try it, but if you really don't like it, don't force yourself." He had a clear understanding of himself.

Qin Ning felt a bittersweet feeling in her heart.

"Brother Weiran, you are so kind."

She sometimes did swallow with some difficulty, but she didn't want to lose, didn't want to feel pampered, and wanted to cater to Bai Weiran's habits and tastes.

Bai Weiran's words made her feel relieved.

Such a kind older brother, Weiran, should not be bullied by others.

She stared intently at Bai Weiran, her eyes deep, her gaze shifting in an instant.

Well, Brother Weiran is just too reasonable.

Although Wei Ran's brother taught someone a lesson himself, she still thought his methods were mild.

But it's okay, Qin Ning will help you. Qin Ning knows best what it means to be unreasonable.

As soon as she got back to her room, Qin Ning said she was going to browse the duty-free boutiques on the ship and left the room under this pretext.

Meanwhile, the door to the next room opened slightly, and emerald green eyes peered out from inside.

She watched Qin Ning's departing figure disappear completely down the corridor before stepping out. With a sleazy behavior that belied her solitary appearance, she silently pressed herself against the door, using an appallingly keen hearing to listen for any sound from inside.

The blond playboy, who had lost the bet, was staggering drunkenly on the deck, arguing with everyone he saw.

"What are you looking at? Are you looking down on me?!"

"What are you doing? Ugly woman, glaring at me like that? Let me tell you, a woman like you isn't even worthy of shining my shoes, ptooey!"

"You old codger, just die already! You're a waste of the nation's resources and have no productivity—that's exactly what I mean by you!"

Pedestrians scattered, but the bartender at the open-air bar on the deck couldn't get away and helplessly watched a drunkard come to his counter.

Good evening, sir.

"...I want some wine, give me the best one."

If she gave it to him, he would be even more unable to leave. After weighing the options for a while, the female bartender gently advised him against it.

"Sir, I see you've had too much to drink. It's windy tonight, so please get some rest as soon as possible and be careful not to catch a cold."

Upon hearing this, the blond young master lazily raised his eyelids, glanced at her, and then chuckled.

"Are you asking me to go back to my room?"

"Woman, I see through you. You're trying to seduce me, aren't you?"

"What a cliché trick—"

The blond young master was in a bad mood today. He had been robbed of his chips for no reason, and all his gains from the night had been won away. He was even kicked out of the casino and not allowed to enter. He didn't lose money; he lost face, self-esteem, and pride, which made him even angrier.

And this anger is vented on the powerless and vulnerable.

Thirteen spittings in a second, a torrent of nasty words poured out, making the female bartender sound like she was using her looks to seduce men.

Bystanders couldn't stand it, but most remained silent, thinking it was better to avoid trouble. No one stepped forward, leaving the female bartender to be scolded until she was in tears.

"Did you understand?"

"...Women like you deserve to be taught a lesson. I'm going to scold you and teach you a lesson so you'll know what shame is!"

"Look at other girls, who mixes drinks for men late at night? Is it so hard to have some self-respect?"

"Oh dear, you're crying now. I've wronged you, haven't I? Women are so lucky; they can cry and someone will feel sorry for them—"

Amidst the vile insults, an arrogant greeting was unexpectedly inserted.

"Hello."

The blond young man paused mid-sentence, and the female bartender looked up in a second, tears welling up in her eyes. Realizing she couldn't be rude in front of her customers, she hurriedly raised her hand to wipe them away, forcing an embarrassed smile at the stunningly beautiful girl in front of her.

"Good evening, miss. What can I do for you?"

"I'd like a hot cocoa milk."

Ordering milk at a bar is certainly eye-catching, but even more bizarre requests have been heard of.

The female bartender immediately turned around and got busy.

The blond young master recognized Qin Ning.

"Oh, aren't you the one that guy was with—" He paused, then looked Qin Ning up and down.

He saw Qin Ning at the gambling table.

Stand out from the crowd.

Standing among a group of women, head held high, chin held high, she exuded an undeniable elegance and pride, as beautiful and proud as a princess.

His hostility towards Bai Weiran stemmed largely from this.

"I remember you too, you were that gentleman—"

Qin Ning turned and smiled at him, her eyes deep. The beautiful woman's smile immediately brought a look of surprise to the blond young man, but he overlooked the hidden danger within.

As soon as the female bartender turned around, she saw the passenger who had ordered hot cocoa milk earlier walking ahead, leading the male customer who had insulted her to the railing of the ship.

She was stunned for a moment, and her first concern was for Qin Ning's safety.

What good can a drunk man who can hurl insults like that do?

She wanted to use serving drinks as an excuse to call Qin Ning back, so she left her post and hurriedly chased after the two of them. But she stopped after only five steps.

Because of the earlier commotion, nearby passengers had all moved away, and now the area around the railing was empty and the lights were dim.

You can't see what the two are doing unless you get close, but once you do—

"Jump down."

A young woman, dressed in an elegant black dress with long, flowing hair, smiled and held a machete that appeared out of nowhere. She pressed it against the neck of the blond young man, threatening to sever his artery with a single stroke. She forced him against the railing, half of his body already hanging out, and could hear the waves crashing against the boat below.

It terrified people so much that they could only raise their hands in surrender.

The wicked are cowardly; the young master who had been cursing just moments before suddenly fell silent, like a quail that had fallen into the water.

He and the girl locked eyes, and all he could see were their deep, enchanting gazes.

At that moment, I no longer thought she was beautiful.

He felt terrified, terrified, and cold sweat broke out on the back of his head, instantly sobering him up considerably.

He shouldn't have envied or been jealous of that man at all—

This monster—

"Don't you understand?" Qin Ning chuckled, her expression unchanged, the cruelty in her eyes undisguised.

"I'll say it again, jump down."

"Do you want to jump down alive, or have your neck slit and jump down?"

"Excessive blood loss can lead to hypothermia and death—"

"Or perhaps it smells of blood, and if it soaks in seawater, sharks will be drawn to it—"

She spoke each word with a chilling, low tone.

With a splash, the blond young master tumbled into the water, leaving only a terrified face floating on the surface.

The female bartender opened her mouth in shock, but closed it again as soon as Qin Ning turned her head away.

The strong sea breeze blew the girl's long hair into the air, strand by strand.

“I lost my necklace,” she said.

"This gentleman was very kind; he jumped into the sea to help me search."

She smiled, slowly reached behind her neck, unfastened the necklace with one hand, grasped the unadorned, smiling necklace, and, to the bartender's astonishment, stretched her fair hand over the railing.

Then release.

puff-

The sound of tiny splashes of water.

The necklace disappeared into the dark, shimmering sea.

Qin Ning smiled, her gentle demeanor carrying a hint of command as she questioned the female bartender.

"That's how you saw things happen, right?"

Just because she doesn't have a yandere episode in front of Bai Weiran doesn't mean she's not sick.

The blond-haired rich kid annoyed her, but Qin Ning just didn't want to show it in front of Bai Weiran.

Hiding and concealing his intense aggression and anger, he was like a ferocious beast that had retracted its claws.

The female bartender felt a chill run through her body from the sea breeze.

This female passenger is terrifying—

But why is there an inexplicable sense of exhilaration amidst this terror?

Her actions were irrational, like an evil flower blooming in the darkness, yet sucking the blood of the wicked.

As their eyes met, it felt as if she, too, was delivering a powerful blow to the rambling drunkard through her.

The female bartender smiled and nodded in agreement.

“Yes, miss, this is what happened. The gentleman jumped down to find your necklace. He’s such a kind person.” As she spoke, she walked to the side of the boat and threw a lifebuoy and a rope overboard.

You won't drown, but being soaked in the cold seawater all night will be a nightmare.
