Chapter 982: Zhang Cheng

~7 min read 1,222 words

On the Titanic, in the magnificent restaurant,

Cal, looking like a gentleman, brought Zhang Cheng before everyone.

Greeting them calmly, Zhang Cheng had a smile on his face.

"Hey, let me introduce everyone. This is Zhang from the East!"

Speaking with a smile, Cal introduced him.

"Nice to meet you, Zhang!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng, Molly Brown beside him smiled.

"Nice to meet you too, Madam!"

Smiling at Molly Brown, Zhang Cheng sat in a chair and greeted everyone present.

Looking at the two Krieg soldiers behind Zhang Cheng, who were like statues, Molly Brown asked: "Do they have to stand like this all the time?"

"This is their job. I don't dare let them leave my sight!"

Explaining with a smile, Zhang Cheng complained.

Hearing Zhang Cheng say this, Molly Brown beside him said: "It seems your family is indeed very strict!"

But what Molly Brown didn't know was that Zhang Cheng was afraid that if the Krieg soldiers left, they would immediately take their entrenching tools to lift someone's skull!

At the banquet table, everyone was talking loudly.

And when mentioning the East, they were full of curiosity. After all, no one had truly been there.

In their memories, the so-called East was still a feudal, ancient country!

However, in the conversation, Zhang Cheng could always use vision that surpassed everyone else, letting them understand what a true 'aristocrat' was!

Looking at Zhang Cheng before him, Rose's mother, Ruth, said in surprise: "My God, Zhang, according to what you said, you aren't married yet, right?"

"That's right. I came this time to learn, and by the way, to develop my family's business overseas!"

Revealing a smile, Zhang Cheng said: "After all, the slave trade doesn't make much money anymore!"

"Filthy slave trader!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng beside her, Rose revealed a look of disdain.

Suddenly hearing this sentence, everyone present was stunned, and even Ruth didn't expect her daughter to say such things.

"Rose, apologize, immediately, right now!"

Looking at Rose solemnly, Cal immediately grew serious.

Because although he wasn't short of money, that didn't mean he would offend the heir of a big family for no reason!

"No, no, no, she doesn't need to apologize. After all, a fallen aristocrat is still an aristocrat, right? May I ask, how many years has your family been passed down?"

Looking at Rose mockingly, Zhang Cheng propped up his chin: "Put away your high-and-mighty look, because in my eyes, you aren't worthy of Cal at all, right, Miss Aristocrat with less than a hundred years of heritage?"

And just after Zhang Cheng finished speaking, everyone present couldn't help but gasp.

Because Zhang Cheng's words were really insulting without using dirty words.

Is a fallen aristocrat still an aristocrat? Of course not. A fallen aristocrat means losing everything. Otherwise, how could Rose marry Cal?

It was highly likely that their family had lost their manor and castle, and they had to marry, longing to return to a life of debauchery through Cal's wealth!

Looking at Zhang Cheng in anger, Rose was full of rage.

"Even if you look at me, you can't change the life of a bird in a cage. Because I was born free, I possess everything!"

Looking at Rose indifferently, Zhang Cheng mocked her.

"Humph!"

Rising in anger and leaving, Rose turned and walked away.

Looking at her back, Ruth hurriedly said: "Sorry, Zhang, my daughter might be a bit disobedient!"

"It's okay, life will make people learn to obey!"

Watching Ruth leave after apologizing, Zhang Cheng shrugged indifferently.

However, after saying this, Zhang Cheng hooked Cal's shoulder: "Buddy, believe me, in this world, love is the cheapest thing, because I have never believed in this!"

"Then what do you believe in?"

Looking at Zhang Cheng suspiciously, Cal asked in confusion.

"Money! In this world, there is nothing money can't buy! Except for the Heart of the Ocean in your hand!"

Looking at Cal before him, Zhang Cheng smiled.

Hearing Zhang Cheng's words, Cal also looked at the gemstone in his hand.

Because this Heart of the Ocean was bought by their family at a high price as a wedding gift, but now it had lost its purpose, because in his heart, Rose was no longer worthy of him!

After leaving the banquet hall, Rose came to the stern, her eyes full of anger.

Because every word of Zhang Cheng was stimulating her heart.

As an aristocratic lady, her life wasn't something she could control. After all, her family had cultivated her, but she longed for freedom.

This, in some cases, was also involuntary.

But is Rose worthy of pity? No, she isn't pitiful. Because in today's Great Britain, or even London, there are many people starving and freezing to death on the side of the road.

She can wear expensive dresses and wear priceless necklaces to attend banquets. If you, a poor person, pity her for not having freedom, do you have water bubbles in your brain?

Cao Dudu is right: before people are full, they only have one thing to worry about, but once they are full, they have countless worries!

Cao Zhengchun: People shouldn't eat too full!

Zhang Cheng: Dudu has great insight!

Coming to the high railing, Rose slowly stepped up, longing to enjoy freedom.

But just as she went up, looking at the vast sea, a trace of exclamation rose in her heart, because it was too beautiful.

But in the next second, her high heels slipped, and she fell down directly.

Holding the railing in shock, Rose was confused.

"Hey, what are you doing? Be careful, come up slowly, I'll help you!"

Running from afar, Jack, who had seen Rose's stunning beauty on the deck, appeared.

Just as he appeared like a hero, a mocking voice came from afar: "What are you guys doing? Are you performing a stage play?"

Turning her head, Rose saw the face she hated.

"Hey, Rose, what are you doing? Come down quickly! My God, are you trying to scare me to death?"

Looking at her daughter, Ruth shouted.

And Cal, looking at this scene, also grew anxious.

But just as everyone was busy saving Rose, Zhang Cheng said: "Be careful, if you fall from here, the biggest possibility is being shredded by the propeller. Believe me, even if God comes, he won't be able to sew you back together!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng in horror, everyone present was stunned, because his mouth was really smeared with honey!

"Buddy, smoke, thanks!"

Looking at Cal's butler, Spicer Lovejoy, Zhang Cheng reached out.

Politely handing over a cigarette, Spicer Lovejoy immediately smiled.

"Thanks!"

Lighting the cigarette, Zhang Cheng exhaled thick fog: "Take off those obstructive high heels and climb back, otherwise just wait to fall and be shredded into pieces, you stupid woman!"

Hearing Zhang Cheng's words, Rose hurriedly took off her high heels and climbed back like a nimble rabbit.

Looking at this scene, everyone present couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Pulling Rose, Ruth hurriedly said: "My God, you really scared me to death!"

And looking at Jack, Cal said indifferently: "Thank you for saving my fiancée, Lovejoy!"

Hearing Cal's words, Lovejoy walked up and took out twenty dollars: "This is your reward!"

Looking at Rose, who was in Cal's arms, Jack couldn't help but feel melancholy.
